Li Chengqian left pitifully. He was going to find his own think tank. However, Li Chengqian's think tank is really average now, because although there were many great scholars in the East Palace at this time, none of them had the same heart as Li Chengqian.

I am really in the same mind as Li Chengqian, and I am almost always young.

"Young Master..." Seeing Li Chengqian leave, Ying Lao came to Li Zhan and smiled and said, "You are polishing the prince!"

After taking a sip of tea, Li Zhan nodded and said, "He is always the prince. Although I have a way to solve this problem, I can't stay by his side all my life.

So he has to learn to use his brain by himself. I think that this is what His Majesty asked him to come to Hongtong County."

"Young Master really sees it far-reachingly. You should be glad that Your Highness the Crown Prince has a good brother like you..." Old Ying bowed slightly.

"It's also difficult for the prince... Is the throne really good? Mr. Ying, look at the prince. While being tortured by the great scholars sent by His Majesty, you will also be wary of His Majesty. Maybe someone wants to be the prince, but I, Li Zhan, don't want the position of the prince at all.

I want freedom, live freely, and don't be bound like this.

It’s really not that good for millions of people. If it’s really good, you won’t be called a lonely man. What do you think…?”

Li Zhan looked at Mr. Ying, but Mr. Ying just smiled, but said nothing.

Then he heard Ying Lao distort the question and asked: "Young Master... 200,000 guan have already bought grain according to your instructions. Because we need grain tonight, we bought a thousand dan in the rice shop opened by Cuijia, Hongtong County.

It's really too dark, it costs ten times the price. This is really a fortune in the national crisis."

"Haha..." Li Zhan laughed: "I knew it a long time ago that these aristocratic families were all vampires, otherwise, they would not have such a big family business.

However, the Cui family is not in a hurry. I have already thought of a countermeasure. If they don’t want to explain it well with us, then I will kill it at once.”

....................................................

"What should I do... The Cui family still has 500,000 yuan, and I don't want to return it?"

Li Chengqian left Li Zhan's room and immediately came to his room to gather all his confidants. At this time, there were five people in Li Chengqian's room, including Xiaodouzi, Hou Guangliang, Zhao Jie, Du He and Li Chengqian.

Li Chengqian frowned and finished speaking.

Zhao Jie, who was on the other side, immediately said, "Why... the Cui family dares to resist the order, so let's conquer his house." Zhao Jie is the son of the eldest princess, Li Chengqian's best friend, and will rebel with Li Chengqian in the future.

Hou Guangliang looked at Li Zhan and asked, "Half Master Li gave us instructions?"

With a sigh, Li Chengqian said bitterly: "Brother had long expected that he would help us get Zhou Shiren's 200,000 yuan, and now he is actively buying food. There is no problem tonight and for the next period of time, but there will be trouble in the future. The Cui family swallowed so much money and didn't swallow a penny. If we don't have the money to buy food, it will be troublesome."

"Honest Master Li didn't tell me a solution?" Xiao Douzi asked again.

"My elder brother must have it, but my elder brother wants me to solve it myself. After all, this time my father sent me down to give me experience. My elder brother asked you to think of a solution with me."

After Li Chengqian finished speaking, Du He frowned and said, "What can we do? The Cui family is not easy to mess with. The person in charge of the Cui family is now called Cui Lin, and it is said that it has something to do with many ministers in the court.

If we blatantly search the Cui family, then we may offend many people in the court.”

"Yes...!" Hou Guangliang said: "If you want to copy, we must find evidence. However, Hongtong County is the territory of the Cui family, and the evidence is not easy to find."

"What should I do?" Zhao Jie said speechlessly: "I can't find it, but I can't copy it, so I can't wait. There are still tens of thousands of victims outside. Do you still ask them to eat wheat bran?"

Zhao Jie's words made Li Chengqian say bitterly: "Yes... I can't eat wheat bran anymore, I have made a guarantee."

"Or why we go and beg Mr. Li... he will definitely help Your Highness." Xiao Douzi whispered his proposal.

Du He shook his head and said, "Brother Li is training the prince and us. Now I can't go to ask for it, so why not... Guangliang took people to secretly investigate the place where the Cui family kept money? We must find evidence that the Cui family embezzled 500,000 jin of money as soon as possible.

Secondly, in order to alleviate the pressure on our food, we can let the prince come forward and ask the wealthy families in Hongtong County to donate. I think if the prince comes forward, he can get some money and food."

"Oh... this idea is good..." Li Chengqian said happily with a lit up in front of his eyes: "We're doing this..."

Soon, just after Li Chengqian and others made up their ideas, Li Zhan learned about their ideas, which made Li Zhan laugh. Why... Because he was too naive, both Li Chengqian, Du He, and Hou Guangliang were too young at this time.

They think everything is beautiful, but is it really the case?

You can raise money and food in the name of a prince, haha... If it is really useful, there is no need for an army.

"Young Master, what do we do now?" Old Ying asked Li Zhan with a smile.

Li Zhan said lightly: "Let the prince and others suffer losses first, let Gao Liang, and Maki Shang put those things into the Cui family for me. The Cui family is not making it difficult for us to have a hard time, and the Cui family in Chang'an and the Cui family in Hongtong County were also removed cleanly. OK... Then I will destroy his Cui family directly."

"As for orders..." Old Ying bowed and left.

But when Old Ying retreated silently, when he looked up at Li Zhan's back with his hands slightly raised his head, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: It's really a pity, it's a decisive killing and full of energy.

....................................

At the same time, a poor family entered Chang'an City, but this poor family was not pitiful in Li Zhan's eyes, because this family was the Queen Wu Zetian's family.

Wu Zetian's father, Wu Shiqiu, was engaged in wood trading and his family was well-off. In the late years of Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty, when Li Yuan was in Hedong, he kept him in the Wu family many times, so he met him. After Li Yuan raised an army in Taiyuan and rebelled against the Sui Dynasty, the Wu family had funded money, grain and clothing. After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, Wu Shiqiu became the Minister of Works as a "Yuan Cong Meritorious Official" and the Governor of Jingzhou, and was granted the title of Duke Yingguo.

Warriors died in the ninth year of Zhenguan, and Wu Ze was only twelve years old.

Her cousins ​​Wu Weiliang, Wu Huaiyun, Wu Yuanshuang and others took advantage of the situation and were rude to his mother Yang. Soon, Wu Zetian moved back to Chang'an with her mother from Jingzhou to live.

In November of the 11th year of Zhenguan, after Emperor Taizong of Tang came to Luoyang Palace, he heard that the fourteen-year-old Wu Zetian "Rong Zhimei" was "resistant", so he summoned her into the palace and named her a fifth-rank talented man, and was given the title of "Wu Mei". Later generations falsely called Wu Meiniang.

But when Wu Meiniang just entered Chang'an, a sigh came from the box on the second floor of a restaurant: "It was originally the Queen's Destiny, but I met the Dragon of the Nine Heavens. Let's wait... If I can't meet him, as long as I enter the palace at the age of fourteen, I can live a safe life without any abnormal movements.

But if you meet him before you are fourteen, it will be a sign of death...!"
