Liu Laosi glanced around, and said in a low voice: "Brother Erlang, we are our own people, what do I have to say here, but if it comes out of my mouth and into your ears, I don't recognize it when I go out." โ€

"Don't worry, big brother Shiro, little brother will take care of it."

Liu Laosi said bluntly: "Your Majesty is getting old and becoming more and more lazy, but he doesn't believe in His Royal Highness the Prince, so most of today's government and politics are in the hands of Erzhang, and it is not easy for even the prime minister to see her." โ€

"And then?"

Then, these two people leaned towards the government and the opposition, and they had a heart of disobedience. They knew that the direct suppression of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would inevitably arouse the vigilance of the Prince, so they hit His Royal Highness Li Chongfu with the idea of privately minting copper coins in Yangzhou. โ€

Cui Geng's heart moved, and said, "Is there such a thing?" โ€

Liu Laosi smiled meaningfully and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to entrap the ministers, how can he do it with that little bit of money?" How could the king of Tangchang not share his father's worries? โ€

That's true.

Cui Gengqing sighed "hmm" and said, "What evidence does Zhang Changzong have?" โ€

In order to collect evidence, he sent his henchman, Hu Yuanli, the governor of the Yangzhou Metropolitan Governor's Office. Hu Yuanli, have you heard of Erlang? โ€

Cui Geng had heard a few things about this Hu Yushi.

When he was the secretary of the criminal department, he was extremely cruel and mean, and he was not emotional. At that time, Li Rizhi was appointed as the criminal officer, and every time he reviewed the case, he was treated leniently, so he was repeatedly rejected by Hu Yuanli. And Li Rizhi never changed the sentence.

One day, Li Rizhi had exempted a prisoner from the death penalty, but Hu Yuanli disagreed and sentenced him to death. The case went back and forth between the two, and the two sides insisted again and again, Hu Yuanli was furious and ordered someone to deliver it to Li Rizhi and said: "As long as I don't leave the post of Si Xingqing, this criminal will have no way to live!" โ€

Li Rizhi also ordered someone to reply-for-tat: "As long as I am not faced, this criminal will not be sentenced to death!" โ€

In the end, the two reported the two verdicts to Wu Zetian together, and Li Rizhi was victorious, and the prisoner was sentenced to exile.

Later, Hu Yuanli was transferred to the Suzheng Observatory to take up a post, and he still had that cruel and mean temperament, I don't know how many people were ruined, and the people hated him to the bone.

Once, outside the Xuanren Gate, Hu Yuanli was pushed into a mud pit by the enemy, but fortunately he was rescued by the Praetorian Guards and survived.

Wu Zetian ordered the cane to fine Hu Yuanli's enemy by 100, and Su Zhengtai also fined Hu Yuanli 5,000 because he ruined the reputation of Yushitai.

From this incident, it can be seen that this Hu Yushi has reached the point of anger and resentment. Otherwise, in this matter, he is a victim and should have received the condolences of the Imperial Tower. It's good now, not only did I not offer condolences, but I also fined money. 5,000 is not much, but it is completely naked~ a naked slap in the face.

Of course, Hu Yuanli didn't just do bad things, he didn't do good things. For example, after Cui Geng's rival Wang Hongyi was demoted, he wanted to return to Chang'an, but was discovered by Hu Yuanli and directly beaten to death.

All in all, this is a standard cool official, and whoever commits it in his hands will definitely not end well. However, it's not a bad guy in the full sense of the word, basically, he bites whoever the master tells him to bite.

After listening to Cui Geng's thoughts, Liu Laosi nodded and said: "Erlang is very right, this Hu Yuanli is a good dog that bites people, and now he has taken refuge in the Zhang brothers." After Hu Yuanli arrived in Yangzhou, he destroyed more than a dozen private money workshops, arrested thousands of men and shopkeepers, and only Niu Banyun, the shopkeeper of the workshop, fled outside. โ€

Cui Geng pouted his teeth and said, "That brother, after I arrived in Yangzhou, I had to find that Niu Banyun before Hu Yuanli?" Where the hell is he? โ€

Liu Laosi shook his head and said, "I don't know, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can't contact this person at all now." Whether you can find Niu Banyun first depends on Erlang's means. Anyway, your main responsibility is to ban private money, and you can find Niu Banyun to be confident. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has explained, and after finding him, you will ......"

As he spoke, Liu Laosi swiped down with his right hand, and the implicit meaning was to kill people and kill their mouths.

Cui Geng always felt that something was wrong, and said: "The intentions of King Liang and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are so obvious, can Er Zhang not object?" โ€

"Against what? This is called a hemp pole to beat the wolf, and the two ends are afraid. Liu Laosi explained: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is certainly afraid that Hu Yuanli will find Niu Banyun, but the Zhang brothers are also afraid that you will return to Chang'an." In the days when you are away, they toss the prince, and they don't know how easy it is! โ€

After a pause, Liu Laosi added: "Even King Liang is not less angry with them." โ€

Cui Geng heard this, and thought to himself, oh, I was used by both of them as a redemption and redeemed!

He said with a depressed face: "Then this matter is irreversible?" โ€

"I can't change it." Liu Laosi persuaded: "Now Chang'an is a nest of right and wrong, Erlang, you stay away from Chang'an, you can also protect yourself, right?" Or Modo thought about it. โ€

"Okay. Brother Shiro, then this national letter from Tibet, please bring it back to Your Majesty. In addition, I would like to write a few letters, and I would like to ask you to convey them as well. โ€

"No problem, I'll take care of that."

"Thank you, Brother Shiro!"

Since it was the common intention of Li Xian, Wu Sansi, Shangguan Wan'er and even the Zhang brothers, Cui Geng couldn't resist, so he had to accept the will and come in the direction of Yangzhou. Of course, this is unwilling, don't expect him to be efficient.

What's there?

What if Hu Yuanli catches Niu Banyun? What if Niu Banyun accuses Li Chongfu?

Can Wu Zetian abolish the crown prince Li Xian for this little bit of? How is that possible?

To tell the truth, this old lady's current state is to enjoy the rest of her life in peace and quiet, and she doesn't want to toss at all.

Zhang Changzong was completely stunned, so he thought that he had the possibility of becoming an emperor. Belch...... It doesn't seem that simple.

Cui Geng thought about it again, even if Zhang Changzong didn't "make the mind faint", he had to fight to the death now. Without it, Li Xian's eldest son, Li Chongrun, was killed by Zhang Changzong's words. With this blood feud, after Li Xian took the throne, could he be spared? Therefore, from Zhang Changzong's point of view, he must find a way to be the emperor, and there is no other way.

On the Grand Canal, in an official boat.

"It's nothing more than a dying throe."

Cui Geng silently sentenced the Zhang brothers to death in his heart, and instructed: "When is this investigation of fake money a leader?" The court is a drunkard, not in wine. In this case, let's not work hard stupidly, just treat this trip as a tour. โ€

Song Genhai said: "That's a good feeling, a few years ago, you were the commander of Jiangdu County, and now although you are not returning to your hometown, it is not much worse." When you think about it, it's a beautiful thing. โ€

Zhou Xing was also quite interested, and said: "I have visited all over Yangzhou City, and there is nothing new." Yangzhou's other six subordinate counties Jiangyang, Tianchang, Liuhe, Gaoyou, Hailing, Yangzi, where should we go first? โ€

Song Genhai glanced at Feng Changqing and said jokingly: "Where else can I go?" Brother Feng probably can't wait. Let's send troops to Liuhe County! โ€

Cui Geng said: "Good idea, you don't have to wait for the boat to sail to Yangzhou, let's get off the boat halfway and inquire about the temper and temperament of the little lady Pei for Changqing." If he is really worthy of being a brother, the official will ask for a matchmaker. โ€

When a person of Feng Changqing's status gets married, both parties must have discussed it long ago before officially proposing marriage, otherwise they can't afford to lose that person if there are any twists and turns.

Therefore, the formal matchmaker is only symbolic. However, even if it is only symbolic, the more noble the matchmaker, the better. Cui Gengnai was the prime minister of the dynasty, the concubine of Princess Pingyang, if he could be a matchmaker for Feng Changqing, it would be quite beautiful.

Feng Changqing was not hypocritical, and said, "Lord Xie! With you as a matchmaker, when the last general comes to the door, he will be a little more confident. โ€

The next day, Cui Geng and his entourage secretly got off the official ship and went straight to Liuhe County.

Since you want to inquire about the temperament of the little lady, there is no need to visit the door directly, everyone first found an inn to settle down.

Then, I went to Fengle Building, the most luxurious restaurant in the city, to have a drink.

This building is three floors high, below is the hall, specially to receive ordinary individual customers, peddlers and pawns, the second floor is a private room, you must have a certain identity to listen to the person can come up.

The third floor has the best scenery, but the area is not large, it is actually a slightly larger pavilion, not a figure that can be counted in Liuhe County, so don't think about going up to the third floor.

Although Cui Geng and the others don't want to reveal their identities, he can report Li Shan's name! In Yangzhou, presumably no one dared to pretend to be a good friend of the underworld leader Li Shan for this little thing, and that guy did not doubt him, so he let Cui Geng and others go to the third floor.

If you look closely, the third floor is really not big, there are only three tables, and there is already a young man sitting on one table.

After the banquet was set up, the little guy said "You use it slowly" and was ready to retreat.

Cui Geng stopped: "Little brother, don't be in a hurry to go, Ben ...... My son asks you something. โ€

As he spoke, he had already placed a golden bean on the table.

"This ......" the guy stretched out his hand to take it, but retracted it hesitantly, and said, "You are a friend of Li Dashanren, even if there is something you don't understand, just ask him directly?" Which round can earn this money in a small way? โ€

Cui Geng shook his head and said, "This matter, it's not appropriate to ask Brother Li, I just want to ask you." Besides, you are from Liuhe County, maybe it is more verifiable than the news obtained by his subordinates. โ€

"What the hell are you asking?"

Cui Geng pushed the golden bean forward and said, "That's it...... Your Liuhe County Ling Pei Liang's youngest daughter is called Pei Youniang, how is she doing? โ€

"You ask Pei Youniang, ......?"

The guy hadn't spoken yet, but the young man who was drinking alone next to him had already stood up, "snapped", pressed the golden bean, and said: "I should earn this money, no one can know better than me, this Pei Youniang's bottom is fine." โ€
