Time Travel: I am the idle king Li Shen and Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty

"What, King Ji really said that?"

In Wei Qu's ancestral house, Wei Renji and several clan elders, including Wei Ting, were there. After hearing Wei Siyan finish Li Shen's request, Wei Ting stood up immediately.

"This is so deceptive. This is blackmail."

"Five thousand acres of tea plantation. Doesn't he know how long it will take to grow?"

It is unacceptable for everyone to vent their anger.

"Okay. What's the use of saying this. He has Wei Yuanzheng's confession in his hand, which must contain many people. If the confession is published in the newspaper, then the whole world will know about our evil deeds. Even if His Majesty doesn't want to confront us, You can't even touch it, the whole world is watching." Wei Renji was still very calm. First, the pros and cons are analyzed.

"I think King Ji is just bluffing. Even if he had a confession, he would not dare to publish it in the newspaper, otherwise the world would be in chaos. We aristocratic nobles are not easy to mess with." said a clan elder.

"I think what he said is true. He must have a confession in his hand, but he didn't dare to make the matter bigger, so he wanted to blackmail us. But I don't know if he dares to send it out." Wei Ting feels that Li Shen should not tell lies.

"Uncles, my nephew speaks softly, but I still want to say something. We can't afford to bet, although my nephew doesn't know what Wei Yuanzheng's confession actually said.

But my nephew knew one thing. Although King Ji was young, he was very courageous. I heard that he dared to bribe the emperor and openly gave money to Manager Wang De in front of the emperor. Not to mention scolding the officials in the court, what else do you think he dare not do? "Wei Siyan felt that Li Shen should be given some help.

Everyone fell silent after hearing Wei Siyan's words. yes! This King Ji is young and very courageous. He dares to do anything including disemboweling people and treating their illnesses. Is there anything else that he dares not do?

If King Ji really writes about the matter in the newspaper, and then publishes Wei Yuanzheng's confession, then the noble family will really be in catastrophe.

Li Shimin would punish the participants at all costs for the sake of the royal family's face, and all the princes and nobles would agree. The nobles would stand on the opposite side of righteousness, and everyone would cry for beatings.

"Don't think so much. Go and have someone notify each family and tell them King Ji's request. This is not our family's business and cannot be shouldered by my family." Wei Renji made a decision immediately

The next day, all the noble families involved in the incident gathered at Weiqu's old house. Except for the Li family of Longxi, no one from the five surnames came. The rest all came, including the Li family from Zhaojun, the Cui family from Boling, the Cui family from Qinghe, the Lu family from Fanyang, the Zheng family from Xingyang, and the Wang family from Taiyuan.

Close eight families: Langya Wang family, Chenjun Xie family, Hongnong Yang family, Lanling Xiao family,

Jingzhao: Only the Wei family participated.

The Du family was not involved.

Which of these families was not famous during this period.

"I never thought that a little prince would make us so passive." The person who spoke was an elder of the Zheng clan.

They thought this time was a sure thing. To deal with King Ji who only had fifty guards, dispatching thousands of people was not a piece of cake. Unexpectedly, not only did he fail, but he was also caught in a braid.

"What can be done about this? What is important for us now is to know whether Wei Yuanzheng has confessed." Cui Renzhi said the key point.

"Everyone, I think it is possible that King Ji sent Wei Yuanzheng to prison after he had obtained the confession. Wei Yuanzheng disappeared for four days.

After that, he was sent to the Ministry of Punishment without any trace. We had previously guessed that Wei Yuanzheng was arrested by King Ji. If the judgment is correct, he should have used these four days to interrogate Wei Yuanzheng. "Secretary Zheng Jingsi analyzed the situation.

As the Minister of Household Affairs, Lu Chengqing knew a lot and agreed with Zheng Jingsi's words: "Mr. Zheng is right, if King Ji dares to blackmail us, he must have something to rely on.

Now let’s see what everyone means, whether to ignore it or to lose money and avoid disaster. Fifteen shops and ten thousand acres of farmland are really nothing to us.

We just need to make it clear to King Ji in advance, just this once, if this excuse is used to blackmail us in the future, then we will die. Since he chose to blackmail us, it means that he doesn't want to make things worse. "

"Yes, I guess His Majesty must know about this, but this time it involves so many of our families. There is nothing he can do.

If forced to do so, we will not sit still and wait for death. He is also afraid that various parts of the Tang Dynasty will be turbulent. "Cui Renzhi thinks what Lu Chengqing said makes sense.

"Even so, we must be prepared. Your Majesty will not let this matter go easily. There will definitely still be some people involved. It depends on how many people are involved." Wei Ting knows a little more than them. .

"In this case, your Wei family will talk to King Ji as a representative, and we agree to his conditions. But we must let the ugly words come to the front.

This time, if we continue to use this matter as a threat in the future, in the worst case, we will die. It would be better if he would cooperate with us. "Yang Liheng, the elder of the Hongnong Yang clan, has been silent. They only cooperated with the assassination and sent some deadlies.

No high-level figures were involved. He agreed this time just to calm down trouble and save money and avoid disaster.

Wei Renji actually didn't want to be a representative, but this time someone from his family actually participated and was arrested. And they are more or less relatives to King Ji.

He could only bite the bullet and agree and said: "Okay, but I think cooperation is impossible. Now we and King Ji have already broken up.

I heard that King Ji has an elite escort of a hundred people, but no one except His Majesty knows where it is now. Even their former colleagues don't know who was selected.

So you'd better be careful, this King Ji can do anything. "This is actually what Wei Renji is most worried about. He is most afraid that Li Shen will also engage in assassination and retaliate against the people on the list.

It is impossible for such a large family to live on guard, and it is likely to cause everyone to be in danger.

After hearing this, everyone was a little worried. At this time, the elder of the Li family in Zhao County stood up.

"Hmph, I have long said that this matter should not be done, but you didn't listen. We, the Li family of Zhao County, should not have participated in it in the first place.

Although His Majesty was born in the Li family in Longxi, Gaozu came from our Zhao County. The one your Majesty hates the most now should be our Zhaojun Li family.

Look at why the Longxi Li family didn't participate. They suffered a lot of losses. They are really obsessed with you.

The clan leader said that Zhaojun will not participate in operations against the royal family in the future, so everyone can do your own thing.

Our clan leader will personally go to the palace to talk to His Majesty about this matter. Do you really think it will be over without pursuing it this time?

When did that child, Prince Ji, refuse to avenge himself? With that said, I take my leave. "Speaking of the old station of the Li clan,

"Everyone has a news for you. King Hejian once made a drunken remark when he and I were drinking. King Ji had a sinister heart and a hidden knife in his smile, and Cheng Zhijie also often said that it would be too insidious to play with this child in the future. Please be careful. "Farewell"

The Li family of Zhaojun left, and the remaining people fell into deep thought after hearing the last words spoken by the Li family elder. They had no doubts about this.

After all, it came from the mouths of King Hejian and Cheng Yaojin, but no one could figure out what was Li Shen's sinisterness.

Then everyone from each family also left, this time they admitted defeat.

There is no other way, I am willing to admit defeat and become a king and loser. If Li Shen was successfully killed this time, even if the emperor knew that it was them without evidence, he would still have some scruples.

But this time Li Shen did not die and even captured Wei Yuanzheng. Then they lost this round.
