Chapter 145 The Li Family Makes Trouble 03
All the people in the Li family were redeemed today, but the head of the Li family did not redeem those who were with Li Yuxing.
This made those people furious, and they all held great resentment towards the Li family.
Fortunately, it is not a problem for their family to come up with five thousand taels, otherwise, it would be difficult for Lord Lu to deal with it.
You can't just accept money from the Li family.
This is not good and unfair.
Wen Li watched the Li family leave, then left the household registration office with the unexpected fortune.
As he left, he could still hear Lord Lu's regretful voice behind him.
"I really shouldn't have agreed to him. I lost the meat that was right in my mouth. I'm so heartbroken."
Wen Li felt refreshed.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to deal with the Li family, but until the time comes, he will just have to endure some grievances.
After returning home to pick up Xiaotong, the two came to the outskirts of the imperial city.
"Why did you think of bringing me here?" The scenery outside the imperial city was quite nice at this time.
She thought he was taking her to the moat for a trip today.
"Xiaotong, do you remember the cave we were in?" Yes, he wanted to give her a surprise.
You know, after that incident, he thoroughly searched the mountain inside and out.
And cleaned up the cave.
I just wanted to give her a surprise.
The two of them didn't know that while they were enjoying this beautiful moment, someone in the imperial city began to plot against them.
After Mr. Li spent money to bring the person home, he felt more and more uncomfortable.
He walked out with his men.
After arriving at a restaurant where he often met with his friends, he asked someone to invite the second prince.
Originally, he didn't want to take sides so early, but because the eldest prince was too bullying, he had to start choosing his own way out.
When the second prince learned that the head of the Li family had invited him, he immediately came out of the mansion.
He was in a good mood today and was playing with the baby in his princess' belly, but he didn't expect that the head of the Li family would invite him.
Compared with the eldest prince, the second prince is more amiable and approachable. Usually, people who don't know his background think that the second prince is a good person.
Approachable and likable.
As soon as the two met, the head of the Li family began to complain to the second prince.
He continued to recount what had happened today, and almost said that the eldest prince had openly robbed his family of their money.
When King Chen heard this, he was delighted.
"Hmph, Lord Li has already explained this matter to my father. Even if he is a prince, he cannot act like this." The second prince looked very angry.
He almost started cursing himself.
However, they are all thousand-year-old foxes, and everyone has some plans in mind.
"That won't do." Lord Li's face was extremely grim. "Your Highness Prince Chen, you know how much His Majesty values the Great Prince now. How dare I speak up about this?"
After saying that, he squeezed out two drops of cat urine.
In the past, the Second Prince might have come forward himself in order to win over the Li family, but after receiving a few lessons, he learned his lesson.
"It's alright, Lord Li, feel free to report him. I will definitely stand by your side when the time comes. Does he still have any sense of law? And Lord Lu, huh, he's really greedy for money."
Haha, after talking about this, Patriarch Li knew that if he didn't come up with something, His Royal Highness Prince Chen would not believe his sincerity.
"Your Highness Prince Chen, I have something to tell you but I don't know whether I should tell you or not." He looked at the Second Prince in embarrassment and said.
The second prince glanced at him sideways and asked his men to go down first.
"Go ahead and tell me. With me here, there's nothing to be ashamed of." The second prince said with a smile.
"This." Lord Li still looked embarrassed, but soon his expression changed, as if he had made up his mind.
"It's like this. Yesterday, my good-for-nothing nephew accidentally stumbled upon something, which is why His Royal Highness Prince Li punished him so severely."
The second prince became interested and asked, "Oh, there is such a thing?" He knew that Lord Li was laying out the clues.
"I wonder what happened? It actually made my royal brother so angry."
They are all thousand-year-old foxes, what are they talking about?
"I heard that His Royal Highness Prince Li has set up a glass factory, and now the glass is being produced. Once it is on the market..." He didn't need to say more.
I think the second prince has a scale in his mind.
You have to know that the two of them went to take up their posts in the six ministries at the same time. Although the Second Prince's previous affairs were well concealed, many people knew Lan's inner story.
He is one of the insiders.
Compared to the eldest prince, the second prince is not even a little bit inferior.
If the eldest prince is allowed to continue developing, I'm afraid...
The second prince is not stupid, what is Liuli?
Normally, they are tributes. If he were to make them, then...
He didn't dare think about it anymore.
"I wonder what Lord Li wants me to do?" He is not stupid. The Li family must have something to ask for.
Lord Li smiled and shook his head, "Second Prince, there is no need to be nervous. I don't have any big ambitions. I just want the First Prince..." He made some gestures of wiping his neck.
When the Second Emperor saw this, he was not angry, but burst into laughter.
"Yes." He laughed happily.
"I have agreed to this matter, but I would like to ask Li Dacong for more support in the court in the future." The second prince was so proud after getting the answer he wanted.
Just when he was feeling proud, he didn't notice the cold light that flashed across the eyes of the head of the Li family.
In his eyes, the two royal princes were not up to the task.
They are all idiots.
One only cares about romance, while the other spends his days at home hanging out with his wife.
None of them are doing anything right.
After the two of them had the same goal, they began to discuss the plan.
In the end, Lord Li suggested that the second prince take over the Ministry of Revenue and the eldest prince go to the Ministry of Works.
They never thought about whether the emperor would agree. In their hearts, the emperor truly doted on the second prince.
Otherwise, the last Ministry of Rites incident would not have been covered so easily.
After the two of them had made their plan, the second prince left immediately.
After returning to the mansion, he immediately sent someone to invite the Left Prime Minister to come.
Anyway, his relationship with Zuo Xiang is clear, so he is not afraid of others seeing it.
When the Left Prime Minister came over and learned what the eldest prince had done, he was shocked.
"Really?" he asked in disbelief.
"Of course, how could I lie to you?" The second prince was very unhappy to see him like this, but for the sake of his future, he endured it.
There is no way, because the most powerful person on his side is the Left Prime Minister.
When the Left Prime Minister stood on his side, he was still a little confused.
He remembered that when he said he wanted to marry his granddaughter to be the princess, he had not agreed yet, and not long after, his granddaughter got hastily married.
Until now, there has been no bond between him and the Left Prime Minister, which is one of the reasons why he does not trust the Left Prime Minister very much.
However, compared to others, he trusted Zuo Xiang more, because his mother said that he could not trust anyone, but Zuo Xiang was worthy of his wholehearted trust.
Even if he didn't understand why.
The Left Prime Minister's real name is Ke Quanyu, the eldest son of the Ke family. He was able to become the Left Prime Minister because of his family's old man, Ke Zhenghong.
