The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

"General Li called me here the day before yesterday, just for him?" Zhao Chen said, his face slightly gloomy.

As the commander-in-chief of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jing must not be able to hide the news about Xuanjia's army leaving the city.

There was a fight between the Xuanjia Army and Luo Tong on the official road, and Li Jing was naturally aware of it.

What does Li Jing think of asking him to help Luo Tong now?

"No, I didn't know that he would conflict with you at that time." Li Jing shook his head.

When he asked Zhao Chen to come over, it was the day the bookstore opened.

Who would have known that Luo Tong would help the family and intercept and kill those villagers?

"General Li, I, Zhao Chen, don't have such a good temper. I allow others to kill my own friends and relatives, and then in turn, help them." Zhao Chen shook his head and firmly refused.

If he hadn't arranged for two hundred Xuanjia troops to go there in advance, Cheng Chumo and the other villagers would have died somewhere.

Luo Tong, no matter what his reasons are, if he wants to attack his own people, he will have to bear the price.

If it weren't for the autumn examination that delayed the time, Zhao Chen would have come to visit him long ago.

This Luo Tong actually dared to appear in front of him.

"But he is after all..."

"Zhao Chen would like to ask, if Ruoshuang was the one who was intercepted and killed, would General Li be so generous?" Zhao Chen's words directly choked Li Jing to death.

If something happened to Li Ruoshuang, he, Li Jing, would definitely call in an army to exterminate the murderer's entire family.

Forgive him, that's impossible.

"Luo Tong, please go back. Since you made the choice in the first place, you will naturally have to pay the price."

"Cheng Chumo doesn't want to embarrass you, but I, Zhao Chen, are not familiar with you. Next time we meet, we will be our rivals." Zhao Chen looked at Luo Tong with a burning gaze.

Luo Tong opened his mouth, with anger in his eyes, and he cupped hands with Li Jing and said, "General Li, I'm sorry for bothering you, please take your leave!"

Luo Tong turned around and left. Before leaving, he could only glance at Zhao Chen.

In the hall, only Li Jing is left

and Zhao Chen.

"His father, Luo Tong, was a man of great talent. I didn't expect that Luo Tong would go astray for a woman." Li Jing sighed quietly.

"Luo Tong committed himself to being a thief for his woman. I don't blame him, I even admire him. However, he should not aim the butcher knife at his brother and a group of innocent people." Zhao Chen said solemnly. .

"You kid!" Li Jing shook his head and smiled.

But in his heart, he was increasingly satisfied with Zhao Chen.

If Zhao Chen can protect the people around him in this way, he will naturally not treat his daughter Li Jing badly.

At this moment, Li Jing felt extremely relieved.

"Zhao Chen, the aristocratic family is now targeting you, what are you going to do?" Li Jing calmed down and asked Zhao Chen.

That time at Wangyou Bookstore, the family had completely set their sights on Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen caused the family to lose money. What's more terrible is that it has affected the foundation of the family.

With the emergence of cheap paper and movable type printing, a large number of scholars were bound to emerge in the Tang Dynasty.

The past situation where aristocratic families monopolized education will no longer exist.

How can the family not hate such actions that shake the foundation of the family?

"Soldiers will stop you, and water will cover you. I really don't want to get involved in these things, but the shopkeepers of those aristocratic families make it difficult for me to make money."

"I don't understand, you did your job, I earned my money, why are you trying to get in trouble with me!" Zhao Chen shook his head, looking a little annoyed.

He has never wanted to be associated with the noble family, let alone be hostile.

But the shopkeepers of the aristocratic family, one by one, don't like others.

Not only do they want to seize the right to grow and manage peppers, they also want to set up Huang Wangyou Bookstore.

"When you

When you are good enough, there will always be people who will give you trouble. "Li Jing smiled.

"Why don't you just say that if the trees are as beautiful as the forest, the wind will destroy them." Zhao Chen rolled his eyes at Li Jing and complained.

What does it mean to be good enough but someone will always make trouble?

It's better to say that flies don't bite seamless eggs!

This Li Jing also talks in a roundabout way.

"Haha, you better know it yourself!" Li Jing said with a smile.

He found that Zhao Chen was very smart.

Zhao Chen already understood what he said casually.

It's easy to talk to smart people.

"When you came here, someone from the Aristocratic Family had already begun to raise questions about the difficulty of the autumn test questions."

"With the help of thoughtful people, many scholars now, and even some common people who don't know the truth, think that the test questions you gave this time are biased, and it is simply a blasphemy against the scholars who have lived in poverty for ten years."

"Many scholars have begun to sign a letter requesting His Majesty to reopen the Autumn Examination. In addition, you will be expelled from the court." Li Jing shared the latest news with Zhao Chen.

"I'm not in the court either. The autumn exams are over, so the position of deputy examiner is meaningless!" Zhao Chen said nonchalantly.

He had no interest in officialdom, and the reason why he agreed to be the deputy examiner this time was just to do Lao Li a favor.

Zhao Chen didn't care about this.

"It's not as simple as you think. Once you are really held accountable, your title will definitely be revoked. At that time, any petty official can make things difficult for you."

"Do you think that with so many people in the family, they can't defeat you?" Li Jing shook his head, looking a little worried.

He was just analyzing the current situation with Zhao Chen.

He had not thought about how to deal with such a situation.

As for the title of Tang Dynasty, no reward can be given except for great achievements.

Even the lowest title cannot be moved by just any official.

If you want to touch a person with a title, you must first abolish his title.

Or the emperor personally ordered it.

"But you don't have to worry too much. As long as I'm here, no one can touch you."

"How about you and your old servant move into my house together!"

"Barge in the door upside down? Eat soft rice?" Zhao Chen looked at Li Jing and uttered two sentences.

"Haha, I don't mind if I marry Ruoshuang." Li Jing laughed.

In fact, he just wanted to keep Zhao Chen in his house.

Because this way, they can be closer to their daughter.

"I mind!" Zhao Chen vomited and saw Li Ruoshuang sticking his head out from behind a pillar on the side.

…

"Dong dong dong——"

Outside the siege of Chang'an City, a huge drum stood.

This drum was set up for the people of the Tang Dynasty to complain to the emperor.

This drum has never sounded since Li Shimin ascended the throne.

But today, Li Shimin had just finished lunch and was walking in the Imperial Garden with Queen Changsun when he suddenly heard the sound of a big drum outside the palace.

"Your Majesty, is there a drum of grievance outside the palace?" Queen Changsun frowned.

"Yes, in the eighteen years since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, only when the late emperor was alive, the drum of grievances was sounded once. Unexpectedly, it sounds again today." Li Shimin said slowly, but his eyes were full of coldness.

Li Shimin thought that those people from the aristocratic family would just forget about making trouble outside.

Unexpectedly, he even resorted to complaining.

This is simply to punish Zhao Chen to death.

"Guanyin Maid, I have something to do. If you are fine, tell Zhao Chen about the grievances later." After Li Shimin finished speaking, he walked to the Ganquan Hall in front.
