It is still the home of Wang Si of the Wang family in Taiyuan. Representatives of the five surnames and seven hopes in Chang'an gathered again, this time because of Li Yuanchang.

In the turbulent autumn, one wave has not yet subsided and another wave has started. Before Du Shaoqing could suppress it, Li Yuanchang jumped out of nowhere. The elite figures such as the Five Clans and Seven Hopes all felt a deep sense of crisis.

"Li Yuanchang didn't say a word to our business, and he was so rude to him when he came to visit him. He didn't take us seriously at all. We can't sit still anymore." The Li family from Longxi said angrily.

"We have many evidences about him, Li Yuanchang, in our hands. Since we have torn his face, we cannot keep this person to do evil in Chang'an." The people from Zheng's family in Xingyang said lightly.

Cui Junsu said in confusion: "Although Li Yuanchang is a reckless man, he never dares to oppose our five surnames and Qi Wang. Why is it today? Is he crazy? Or is there someone behind him?"

Cui Junsu's words made everyone silent. After a moment, the people from the Li family of Zhaojun snorted coldly: "No matter what it is, we can't retreat anymore. Du Shaoqing can't get along with us everywhere. With the emperor protecting him, we dare not move. Now, if you have Li Yuanchang, what is he?

Not everyone can ride on our heads, so Li Yuanchang must do him."

"Yes, unlike Du Shaoqing, a man with a shallow foundation, we don't have much evidence of his crimes to mention. Li Yuanchang is different. This guy has never been deliberate and has a bad record. We don't deceive him. Just confirming his previous crimes will be enough to drive him out of Chang'an." The Lu family of Fanyang nodded and said.

"But once the fish are killed, we will be captured by him and locked up in the Ministry of Justice, and I'm afraid we won't be able to release it. This is the result of both sides suffering. Are you considering it and not to fight head-on?" Someone said worriedly.

This man stood behind Li's family in Zhaojun, without a seat. It seemed that he was a disciple or someone else in his family.

The old man from the Zhaojun Li clan sitting in front of him scolded: "Is this still a matter of one person and one family? I am head-on to Li Yuanchang to express my attitude of five surnames and seven hopes. Even if both sides suffer losses, I will tell him that the person behind us is not something that can be bullied by anyone.

As for the tribes in the prison, what's wrong with sacrificing for the family? We take care of our family and mediate our good offices. They are not guilty of beheading themselves."

"Yes, showing weakness at this time is equivalent to compromise, and swallowing anger is equivalent to surrendering without fighting." Another man said aloud.

The clans of the Li family in Zhaojun retreated in embarrassment. In fact, he was not very high in status and could care more about those clans who were doing their family. He also believed that except for a few old people from various families, many of the people present were very concerned about the clans in prison, but they just didn't dare to say it.

Cui Junsu said, "Huaiyuanfang has been demolished by Li Yuanchang in one day. No one knows whether he will be demolished tomorrow or continue to demolish it, so the remaining people of our industry must be prepared to avoid anyone being arrested.

Since Li Yuanchang used secret passage as a reason, let’s fill in secret passage overnight, which is not delayed.”

Everyone nodded together and ordered their subordinates to send messages to do business. Although Chang'an is the capital of the Tang Dynasty, the five surnames and seven hopes have been rooted in the Central Plains for hundreds of years. Since Emperor Wen of Sui built the city, he has seen Chang'an change of ownership several times. His management in Chang'an is beyond the current Tang Dynasty.

After a long time, Wang Si unified everyone's opinions and then said loudly: "Since everyone agreed to fight head-on, let's prepare for it. At the grand dynasty meeting in three days, we will prove the crimes of King Li Yuanchang of Han. Let's try the attitude of His Majesty the Emperor.

If His Majesty is determined to support Li Yuanchang, it means that the situation is in danger now. We cannot avoid disturbing each other like we are now. If we sit still, the Tang Dynasty will be more and more prosperous, and we will be abandoned by the long river of history sooner or later."

Wang Si's words have already drawn a conclusion for this gathering. If Li Yuanchang is taken down, the five surnames and seven hopes will only lose a group of people from the other tribes. If Li Yuanchang is replaced, it will be a loss-making loss at most. However, it also shows that Emperor Li Er is still compromising and fearing the aristocratic family.

But if Li Yuanchang becomes more arrogant and is protected by the emperor, Li Yuanchang, like Du Shaoqing, can be regarded as the sharp knife in the hands of Emperor Li Er, who has sharpened the sword against the aristocratic families and is about to find them, so naturally the aristocratic families cannot sit still and wait for death.

As Cui Junsu expected, Li Yuanchang would not stop. The next morning, he continued to block Huaiyuanfang with his private soldiers and guards, and checked from place to place according to the list to find out whether there were secret passages, whether there were any violations, etc.

After Du Shaoqing's guidance, Li Yuanchang also knew that he had made a move. He just wanted to demolish the people. If the people inside didn't run away, he would catch them. If they ran away, as long as they secretly said that they would be evidence of the crime. The house was confiscated and the escaped person was wanted. It doesn't matter whether they chased them or not, as long as the house could be demolished.

At that time, Du Shaoqing almost laughed out loud after learning about this situation. If Yuwenzhe estimated that except for the homes of ordinary people in Chang'an City, any person with some wealthy identities would basically have secret passages in the houses for emergencies.

In this way, if the demolition of Chang'an City is completed in this name, there is probably no need for demolition compensation, and all of them can be confiscated.

But this is just thinking about it. If you really dare to offend the whole city like this, let alone Li Yuanchang's heading, I'm afraid the emperor will be hated by the people in the city.

What Cui Junsu did not expect was that Li Yuanchang was really vicious. Even if he filled the secret passage in advance, Li Yuanchang still refused to let it go. Any traces of groundbreaking at home must have secret passages, so he ordered people to search for the landfill in the secret passages, and used this as evidence of the crime and arrested people.

Why? So what if the secret passage is filled in? This is also a secret passage. It cannot prove that you have never used this thing to do evil deeds in your past days. Anyone who involves the safety and stability of the Tang Dynasty should be wary of every slightest. This is Li Yuanchang's original words. After hearing this, the workers who were demolished nearby heard it. After recording it, they have already regarded it as an aphorism.

It was a coincidence that Cui Junsu's original intention was to erase the evidence of the crime and make the opponent unfounded. Who knew that when he met Li Yuanchang, he arrested more people the next day than on the first day, and almost every household he arrived. These people thought that if they had filled the secret, they would not have to run away if they had no evidence of the crime, but this way, they would open the door and let someone arrest him?

After knowing this situation, Cui Junsu was so angry that his seven orifices were filled with smoke, which made Li Yuanchang feel so angry that he was so angry that his teeth were itchy.

Li Yuanchang didn't care about this. He knew that this was a job that offended people, so he was mentally prepared. He didn't know that the day after tomorrow, the grand ceremony would be his first wave.

But what everyone behind the scenes did not expect was that the day after tomorrow the court meeting was over. When Li Yuanchang demolished again the next day, news came from his home that a concubine of Li Yuanchang was abducted outside. The criminal left a message saying that the people from the Ministry of Justice were released, otherwise this would be the beginning.

In Yongpingfang, Du Shaoqing was calculating with Yuwenzhe about when the construction of Huaiyuanfang will start. The demolition work seems to be not a big problem for the time being. It took 20,000 yuan from the start of construction to the end of Yongpingfang, which took several months. If Huaiyuanfang was at this speed, it would take many years for the entire Chang'an 108fang to be renovated, so the progress must be accelerated.

But less than half an hour at the beginning, Li Yuanchang rushed in angrily, "Shaoqing, it's so hateful. The thief tied up my favorite concubine and threatened me. It's better to write a letter to let your cousin Daozong kill all the goods in the prison."

Du Shaoqing said in shock: "When did it happen? Didn't you say you had already gone home and arranged it?"

"Don't mention that prodigal girl, I have told her to leave her to the servants for any matter. She just wanted to choose the incense powder and clothes herself. She didn't take my words to heart because she was favored, and she was so angry that she pissed off." Li Yuanchang cursed.

"Since that's the case, there are hostages in the hands of the enemy, how dare we touch the people in the prison? If the other party is defeated by death, your favorite concubine may..." Du Shaoqing couldn't help but smile, he had a plan in his heart.

When Li Yuanchang heard this, he waved his hand, "No, it's true that I, Li Yuanchang, are greedy for money and lust, but he is also a man of the Li royal family. You must not ruin the great cause of the emperor's brother because of private affairs. I have thought that women are like clothes and will never be threatened by others. Let's fight them to the death."

"Oh? Uncle Qi, that's your favorite concubine, how willing to do it?" Du Shaoqing jokingly said.

"I……

Alas! So what if you are reluctant to let go? Can you still fall into the opponent? Who knows whose family caught it?

It’s also a fault that this girl doesn’t know anything. If you listen to me earlier and stay at home, you won’t have anything left?” Li Yuanchang sighed.

Yu Wenzhe next to him couldn't stand it anymore and laughed: "King of Han, if you want to find someone, no one in Chang'an City has more solutions than Shaoqing. His nose is very smart."

Du Shaoqing laughed and scolded: "Okay, Yuwen, you are choreographing me. Is it my big cat to find someone? Be careful that I will find time for the big cat to communicate with you."

No, no... Yuwenzhe hurriedly beg for mercy.

Li Yuanchang suddenly remembered, "Isn't it? Didn't he fall into the big cat's hand in the papermaking workshop before?"

So he turned to ask for help and looked at Du Shaoqing, but the latter did not refuse. Since it was a front, he naturally could not stand idly.

"Uncle Qi, I won't come forward in person. Let Xue Li accompany you to my house. You can explain to Changle the situation and come to Damao to help you. I have to bring all the people to find a good move." Du Shaoqing said, Li Yuanchang was overjoyed and called Xue Rengui to leave in a hurry.

Besides, Li Yuanchang has seen this big cat, and there is a little shadow. Such an adult and beautiful tiger, who dares to approach it? But today I have something to ask him, so Li Yuanchang plucked up the courage to get close to the big cat.

Big Cat was quite obedient. After smelling the clothes that Li Yuanchang found, Big Cat led it all the way to the best restaurant in Dongcheng City, in front of Juxian Building.

When Li Yuanchang saw this, he saw that this is? No, people from Juxianlou come and go, would the bad guy put the meat tickets here?

"Enter the surround and rush in and get the people." Li Yuanchang ordered loudly.

Xue Rengui really wanted to tell him that this could not be done. What if the people inside didn’t see it and they broke up the ticket before they died? Unfortunately, Li Yuanchang’s private soldiers had already rushed in.

"What are you doing? Who are you waiting for? Why are you disturbing my restaurant?" The shopkeeper of Juxianlou asked in a hurry, but he was quickly held down and picked up by the private soldiers without saying a word.

A quarter of an hour later, the captain of the guard came to report: "The prince, I have searched everything inside and outside, but there is no trace of the young lady."

This... Li Yuanchang looked at Xue Rengui in confusion, "Guard Xue, does this big cat sometimes not work?"

Who knew that before Xue Rengui answered, the big cat was dissatisfied. He went up and grabbed the hem of Li Yuanchang's clothes with his teeth and dragged it directly inside.

"Haha, it's really a spiritual big cat. It actually understands people's words. It seems that there is another mystery here. You idiots have learned a little from the divine tiger, and they can't even find it in person." Li Yuanchang scolded his subordinates while walking.

The captain of the personal guard was also helpless and thought to himself that I wanted to have this ability, but I didn’t have a tiger’s nose.

Following the big cat, no one expected that this guy would lead everyone straight to the kitchen of Juxianlou?

"Hurry, search for me. Since Shenhu said that he would find it even if he digs three feet into the kitchen." Li Yuanchang shouted.

Who knew that when he heard this, the big cat seemed to have a humanized disgust. He first walked into the huge kitchen of Juxian Building, headed straight to a fresh roasted lamb still on the fire, and stood there and roared.

Now, everyone understands that the Shenhu is not here to find people, but to eat sheep.

Fortunately, Big Cat has been domesticated for a long time and has been domesticated. Even if he wants to eat, he will have to give it to him. He will not steal it, so he just stood next to the roasted lamb and drooled without moving his mouth.

Li Yuanchang stammered at Xue Rengui, "Guard Xue, I don't know if this person will be looking for people, but this ability to find delicious food is indeed something that we humans can't match."

Xue Rengui quickly figured out everything and explained: "Prince, don't panic. Maybe this big cat has a habit of eating a delicious meal before finding someone. It's said that the general is not too hungry, so let him eat it before watching?"

Li Yuanchang nodded skeptically, "Okay, if this is the case, if you find someone, I will give Shenhu a fresh roasted lamb in my life."

Hum? When the big cat heard this, it turned around and stuck out its tongue in surprise. Xue Rengui laughed and scolded, stepped forward and moved the roasted lamb down, cut it with a knife to feed the big cat.

Li Yuanchang turned around and summoned the shopkeeper of the restaurant to handle the apology and compensation matters. It was not until half an hour later that the team set off again. In order to make up for the loss of the restaurant, Li Yuanchang also paid a loss of 500 taels and cursed in his heart that it would be useless to continue like this.

The big cat didn't disappoint everyone. After eating and drinking, he trotted and found a coffin shop in Xicheng City. This time, Li Yuanchang knew he was cautious. He first surrounded the shop and then took people in to investigate.

The owner of the coffin shop knew that this was not good when he saw this scene, and he was exposed in panic.

"Take it all for me and search!" The captain of the guard shouted.

But it’s easy to get the meat tickets, but still no one found them. Li Yuanchang is really going to collapse now. What’s going on?

The big cat walked slowly in, came to the backyard, walked towards the row of coffins placed in the middle, then jumped up directly, jumped on one of the coffins, and smelled them all over and over again.

"By the way, I found it, they hid the person in the coffin." Xue Rengui suddenly realized, and everyone worked together to open it. It wasn't it? The concubine was tied up and blocked her mouth and threw it into the coffin. It seemed that she was just a little embarrassed and was not in danger of life.
