I'm a marquis in Datang

As soon as he saw what was in the bag, his face showed surprise, because the money inside was not copper coins, but a piece of money.

Pieces of gold pancakes, and some small pieces of gold.

The money is enough for him to cure his wife and allow his son to continue studying.

Life at home is not bad either.

Paying back money is even easier.

Wang Yan thanked Du Qi sincerely, and said solemnly, "Thank you, my lord."

Du Qi said: "You don't need to thank me. Life in a family of three is not easy, especially in Chang'an. You are a good person, your wife is virtuous, and your son is filial. You have a good life."

Wang Yan thanked him again.

Du Qi continued: "After a while, I will send someone to send you money. Your current sum of money cannot be said to be the money for selling the house. It is claimed to be the money obtained by temporarily mortgaging the house. The money in the future , it makes sense to say that he has won an award.”

Wang Zao said: "The young master is thoughtful, Wang Zao admires it."

Du Qi waved his hand and said, "Okay, your wife has been ill for a long time, and she has become chronically ill. Go for treatment as soon as possible. If it is delayed for a long time, it will not be easy to cure."

"Yes!"

Wang Yan turned around and left in a hurry.

Du Qi sat for a while, then left.

After Du Qi went straight back to Du's house, he sat down with Liu Zhengxi in the study as the guest and host. He showed a bright smile on his face and said, "Now that Wang Jun has been captured, we have the first eyeliner inside the East Palace."

Liu Zhengxi said: "Young Master, although Wang Jun said he was willing to work for you, the problem is that in Wang Jun's hands, there is no evidence in the hands of Young Master. In this way, if Wang Zai gains benefits and betrays, the loss outweighs the gain."

Back then, when he surrendered to Du Qi, it was because of Wang Zongzhou's plot.

There is something in Du Qi's hands.

Today's Liu Zhengxi has already worked for Du Qi wholeheartedly, but the problem is, Wang Yan has not.

This was what Liu Zhengxi was worried about.

Du Qi smiled and said: "Mr. Liu, Wang Yan is a man of character. After all, he is a literati. It is impossible to do such a treacherous thing."

"What's more, he is still an official of the Eastern Palace. Once there are rumors, a seventh-rank leader can't bear it. And it's too easy to deal with Wang Yan."

Du Qi said solemnly: "At the moment, there is no need to hold back Wang Yan, he will go all out to serve me. Because Wang Yan is very clear that after embarking on this road, there is no chance of turning back. Where is he going? If Li Jiancheng informs, will Li Jiancheng believe him? Even if he believes temporarily, he will guard against him in the future, so Wang Yan has no choice."

Liu Zhengxi nodded, but didn't say much.

Du Qi thought for a while, and said: "Speaking of which, the King of Qin has a lot of needs for government affairs now that the year is approaching. Make arrangements for us to go to King Qin's mansion tonight."

When Du Qi went to Qin Palace, he couldn't be too blatant.

It's better to be careful.

Lest there be any trouble.

Liu Zhengxi agreed and went down to make arrangements.

When it was completely dark at night, Du Qi and Liu Zhengxi quietly left through the back door of Du's house and disappeared into the

In the dark, go to Qin Wangfu.

During the day, Liu Zhengxi had already arranged for someone to go to the Prince Qin's mansion to inform the King of Qin that Du Qi would visit at night.So when Du Qi's carriage arrived at the back door of King Qin's Mansion, he entered directly without even stopping.

Enter the palace and go straight to the study.

Liu Zhengxi was waiting outside the study, and Du Qi went straight in.After seeing Li Shimin, he saluted, then sat down below, and said: "Your Highness, the New Year is approaching, and my father can't return from Daizhou, so let the boy greet you."

Li Shimin said: "My king is fine."

After a pause, Li Shimin said, "It's your father, how is the situation in Daizhou?"

Du Qi explained: "In Daizhou, the forces belonging to the aristocratic families have been completely eliminated, and none of them have been left behind. Not only that, but now even the Taiyuan Wang family is taken over by me for my own use. Speaking of which, the Wang family is so numerous. A century-old family should have a profound foundation, but the current head of the family, Wang Yu, and Wang Qiao, who assists Wang Yu, don't have the slightest bit of character."

Li Shimin chuckled, and said: "If it weren't for the fact that the two were greedy for life and afraid of death, it would be extremely difficult for you to take them for your own use."

Du Qi's dealing with the Wang's family was sent back to the Qin Palace, so Li Shimin knew that the two brothers Wang Yu and Wang Qiao had surrendered to Du Qi, and that Wang Yu had already taken charge of the Wang's affairs.

Du Qidao: "Your Highness is right."

Li Shimin changed the subject, and returned to the subject: "Erlang, you came to see me at night, but what's the matter?"

Du Qidao: "There are two."

Li Shimin said: "Let's listen to it, I am all ears. The matter of you Du Erlang is not a trivial matter."

Du Qidao: "The first thing is that I returned to Chang'an under the guise of offering sacrifices to my ancestors, in order to instigate rebellion against the leader of the Eastern Palace, Wang Yan. Today, I met Wang Yan, and I have successfully persuaded him to be my eyeliner to monitor the Eastern Palace. "

"The second thing is that the new year is approaching, His Highness needs to manage the court, and more importantly, he needs to move up and down, so as to consolidate his strength and gather more insightful people. In the past half a year or so, the Du family's property has made a lot of money. Less money. The humble staff took 50 yuan from the treasury to arrange for His Royal Highness."

"The money sent will be arranged separately later to avoid being noticed."

Du Qi said two things.

He could have not donated money to Li Shimin, after all, it is Li Shimin's own business to seize the heir.

The problem is that the Du family and Qin Wangfu are tied together.

Du Qi didn't care much about money, and he was willing to donate.

Furthermore, only when Li Shimin became the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, would the Du family have the greatest backing.Even though Li Yuan is now Du Qi's backer, he is only Du Qi's backer, not the Du family's backer.

What's more, Li Jiancheng is always a threat. Du Qi must support Li Shimin with all his strength, so that Li Shimin's strength can be improved.

Only when the power is further strengthened can the goal of self-protection be achieved.

Hearing this, Li Shimin said with emotion: "Erlang, your Du family has paid too much for this king's foundation. You have given out 50 yuan to support the palace before, and now you have given out another 50 yuan. This king, I owe you good money." many."

Du Qi shook his head and said, "Your Highness, I appreciate it."

After a pause, Du Qi jokingly said: "Your Highness thinks that the boy has paid a lot. After defeating Li Jiancheng, the prince of the East Palace, and when His Majesty ascends to the supreme position, he will reward me with a prince who founded the country. As the Duke of the Tang Dynasty , that's Bel who has face. I, Du Qi, have always been, and the benefits are not too many."

This is a joke.

Li Shimin laughed when he heard this, and said solemnly: "Okay, this king promises you. As long as this king ascends to the supreme position, I will reward you as a prince."

Having said that, Li Shimin also knows that the emperor is now leaning towards the East Palace, and it is not easy for him to succeed.In particular, if he wants to win over talents, he must open the way with money, and it is impossible to simply reason.

This is politics!
