Chapter 481 The News Spreads
The people in the capital were concerned about the workshop, and Feng Shu, the county magistrate of Chang'an, was very busy because of this.
Every day, people came to the county government office to inquire, and when manpower was insufficient, the county lord had to go to the battle to explain in person.
After all, this is a matter entrusted by the prince Li Jing, and others may evade it if they are obedient and obedient.
But as a confidant of the eldest grandson's mansion, he has had a relationship with Li Jing several times, and all civil and military officials have long regarded him as a prince.
Once there is even the slightest mistake in this matter, he is afraid that he will be at odds with both sides in the future.
Moreover, Li Jing personally handed over the overall recruitment to him, and he was really moved by this kindness.
Therefore, both public and private, he has to do his best.
Otherwise, a hat of insufficient ability will fall on his head in an instant.
Fortunately, under Li Jing's beating, no county government in the neighboring prefectures stopped recruiting workers.
Without such unnecessary obstacles, he can also save a lot of thought.
"grown ups."
Three o'clock noon.
Feng Shu had a rare moment of rest.
But before he fell asleep, he heard Liu An eagerly knocking on the door.
Feng Shu frowned in frustration, turned over and sat up very dissatisfied.
He walked slowly to the front of the door, opened the door and asked, "Why are you so panicked?
Could it be that someone committed a crime against the wind? "
"My lord, it's not that someone is blocking the recruitment."
Liu An shook his head, and said with a smile: "It's just that in the Royal Bookstore just now, the left guard led the troops to fight with the people from the Zuo family in Jizhou."
"Royal Bookstore?!!!"
Feng Shu's heart tightened, and he asked anxiously: "Is anyone injured?
As the head of the bookstore, is there something wrong with Miss Chen Wan? "
"Don't worry, my lord, the little lady is fine."
Liu An shook his head again, thoughtfully said: "The soldiers led by Zuo Wei brazenly drew their swords, beat up the eldest son of the Zuo family, and then threw them on the street for public display.
The little lady never showed up, so she should have been unharmed. "
"That's good!
That's great! "
Feng Shu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then gave Liu An a hard look.
"Since the little lady is fine, and the royal bookstore has no loss, why are you looking for me again?"
Seeing this, Liu An smiled bitterly, bowed his hands and said, "Return to your lord.
Although the little lady is fine, it is said that the eldest son of the Zuo family said a few unsavory words. "
"What did you say?"
Feng Shu's heart tightened when he heard this, and a bad feeling faintly arose.
With Chen Wan's current status, if Li Jing really got angry, the capital might be in trouble.
"I didn't say anything...
He only said that he wanted to buy the little lady back to the Zuo family as a concubine, and that she would also be given to the servants to play with..."
Just as Liu An was about to show off, Feng Shu gave him a glare.
When the latter heard the words, his eyes were lost, and he said to himself with a headache: "It's over!
The left house is over!
The capital is going to be in chaos! "
……
Tai Chi Palace.
Ganlu Temple.
Empress Changsun snuggled up beside Li Shimin and murmured softly, "Erlang already knew that the family was like this, so why bother about it?
Simply Jing'er has already laid a trap, just waiting for the Zuo family in Jizhou to take the bait.
At that time, Erlang can avenge his recent revenge! "
"The Zuo family?
snort!snort! "
Li Shimin gritted his teeth and sneered, and said: "Xuan Ling sent people to the door several times, but they were all strictly rejected by the Zuo family.
The nearby paper workshop was also coerced by Cui and others, and dared not help the royal paper workshop.
If it weren't for the prince returning to the palace, he would have sent someone to buy it secretly.
This time, not only the Academy of Sciences will be delayed, but Chongxian Hall and Guozijian will also be implicated. "
"The Zuo family is determined to seek death, so why should Erlang bother about it?"
Empress Changsun smiled all the time.
Facing Li Shimin's earnest eyes, he said softly: "The Zuo family thinks that they can rely on the Cui family, and they can skyrocket in our Great Tang.
Little did they know that Jing'er had already laid a net of heaven and earth, and only wanted to wipe out the Jizhou family.
It's just that this matter is extremely dangerous, and Erlang needs to help Jing Er to make up for it. "
"Hahaha~"
Li Shimin laughed heartily when he heard the words, and put his arms around Empress Changsun and said: "The prince's actions are very in line with my wishes, so there is really no need to worry too much.
Rather than..."
"His Majesty!"
At this moment, Liu Jishu walked over at an untimely pace.
Li Shimin suppressed the anger in his heart, frowned and asked, "What happened?"
Seeing that Li Shimin was extremely dissatisfied, Liu Jishu hurriedly replied: "Report to Your Majesty.
Just now when the spies came to report, Zuo Wei led his troops to beat up the eldest son of the Zuo family in the royal bookstore.
According to the spies, it seems that a weapon was used. "
"Oh~
This Zuo family is really a newborn calf not afraid of tigers, dare to provoke the crown prince? "
Li Shimin stroked his beard and smiled, suddenly thinking about watching a play.
Empress Changsun also nodded nonchalantly and shook her head, and said casually: "The Prince's guard is leading the charge to protect the safety of everyone in the East Palace, so it is understandable to draw a sword to protect the guards in a hurry.
Presumably the left guard led his troops with a sense of propriety, and would never disregard human lives in public. "
Li Shimin nodded in agreement, raised his head and asked, "Liu Jishu, why did the Zuo Wei lead clash with the eldest son of the Zuo family?
Is the eldest son of the Zuo family seriously injured? "
"Back to Your Majesty.
The eldest son of the Zuo family is fine.
only……"
Liu Jishu said hesitantly.
Li Shimin frowned impatiently and urged: "Just what?!"
"Uh……"
Liu Jishu was startled when he heard the words, and hastily said: "It's just that the eldest son of the Zuo family didn't know the background of the royal bookstore, nor the identity of the young lady Chen Wan, so he said some unsavory words in public.
The little lady is kind-hearted and has never bothered with her, but His Royal Highness is afraid..."
"Bastard!"
Empress Zhangsun, who was originally at ease, stood up suddenly, and asked loudly angrily: "Then what did the eldest son of the Zuo family say?"
"Back to Madam.
The eldest son of the Zuo family said: "I want to buy the little lady Chen Wan back as a concubine."
If the little lady refuses, she will give it to the servants in the family after he has had enough fun. "
"Dare to humiliate my son, the Zuo family will be beheaded!"
……
Chang'an City.
Zuo Family Mansion.
The Patriarch of the Zuo family frowned, not knowing that the crisis was coming. "Why is Yi'er like this?
Why did the royal bookstore make such a murderous move?
Now that you have just come to the capital, why do you have conflicts with the royal family? "
Seeing Zuo Yi with a bruised nose and swollen face in the main hall, Patriarch Zuo asked extremely angrily.
Zuo Yi didn't know the background of the royal bookstore, but he knew it all.
Behind this shop named after the royal family, stood the prince Li Jing who made the five surnames Qiwang shy away.
If Li Jing was really angered this time, Cui Shi might have to delay.
But Zuo Yi, who was lying on the ground, didn't know the reason.
Seeing Patriarch Zuo being furious, he said dissatisfiedly: "Father!
The boy didn't do anything this time, it was the watchdog of the bookstore who suddenly made a move, and even used a weapon!
Otherwise, how could the child suffer such humiliation. "
"Humph!
Bookstore watchdog? ! "
Patriarch Zuo snorted coldly, and said bitterly, "Do you know who the so-called watchdog is?"
"Children don't know."
Zuo Yi shook his head decisively.
Seeing this, the Zuo Patriarch felt even more desolate.
His eldest son is so unbearable, how can he inherit the family business in the future.
It's just that until now, he has no time to teach this disappointing eldest son a lesson.
"Say!
Why on earth did you piss off the Royal Bookstore? "
"father!
baby didn't...
baby……"
Zuo Yi still wanted to quibble.
But facing Patriarch Zuo's angry eyes, he had no choice but to change his words and say truthfully: "Father!
The boy really didn't say anything.
The boy just wants to buy the shopkeeper of the bookstore as a concubine, welcome home and play..."
"What did you say?!"
The Zuo Patriarch's figure flickered, and he almost couldn't stand still.
No one in Chang'an city knows that the shopkeepers of the royal family are all Li Jing's people.
You can ignore it in Xunri, but you must not speak rudely.
Otherwise, not only Li Jing would not let go easily, even the emperor and empress would not let it go.
This time, Zuo Yi really got into a big disaster!
"Come on!
Immediately send Yi'er out of the city, and return to Jizhou quickly.
In the future, if there is no order from the head of the family, you can't step out of the house. "
"Quick, go and hide the young master!"
