Chapter 330

Yizhou, Handu.

In the bustling market.

A young boy and girl were running through, drawing everyone's attention.

"Don't run, stop right there, Young Master!"

A man dressed in wealth was desperately chasing those two people.

Behind him were dozens of strong men.

Each of them was carrying a long sword.

Showing off in the market!

When the pedestrians in the market saw this man, they all showed nervous expressions and avoided him.

Among the crowd, two familiar figures appeared.

Li Er and Fang Xuanling!

That's right!

These two brothers in misfortune had appeared again in the territory ruled by Qin Mu.

Sigh!

Li Er's heart was bitter!

Ever since unifying the Great Tang again, he had been diligent in government affairs, and the internal politics were becoming more stable day by day, with the war completely quelled.

People's lives were considered stable.

But Li Er felt a sense of loss in his heart.

Every deep night, after finishing his tasks, he always felt the palace became empty.

Li Er always couldn't help but miss Zhangsun Wugou.

Not only that.

Zhangsun Wugou's departure also caused a series of chain reactions.

The concubines in the harem fought for favor, and the Princes gradually formed a trend of fighting for the throne. No one could help Li Er reduce his burden, and no woman could have Zhangsun Wugou's ability to sit in the harem.

507

For a time.

The entire palace was in a state of chaos.

Today it wasn't Princes Li Tai and Li Ke fighting, tomorrow it was the harem fighting endlessly.

Making Li Er unable to have peace all day.

Li Er finally couldn't bear it anymore.

He handed the government affairs to Du Ruhui and Cheng Yaojin, and personally brought Fang Xuanling to Yizhou.

No matter what, this time he must apologize properly to Guanyinbi!

Maybe if her heart softened, she would go back with me?

After several days of long-distance travel.

Li Er and Fang Xuanling finally arrived at Handu in Yizhou.

The two were just preparing to walk around and see what Yizhou under Qin Mu's rule was like, when they discovered this scene in the market.

"Hmm? Xuanling, who is this person?"

Li Er looked at the fierce-looking rich young master and asked curiously.

"Master, I know this person. His name is Cui Jia, the heir of the Cui family, the largest noble family in Handu. Cui Jia is arrogant and domineering in daily life, bullying the good, snatching beautiful women, and doing all kinds of evil."

"Once, he was too outrageous, even alarming Changancheng. The Dali Temple ordered people to escort him to the capital for a joint trial by the three judicial offices. But the Handu Cui family is a distant relative of the Boling Cui family. The Boling Cui family is the head of the Five Surnames and Seven Clans, with huge energy and influence behind them. After some operations, Cui Jia walked out of the Dali Temple unscathed and swaggered out of Changancheng."

"Since then, Cui Jia has become even more arrogant and domineering, ignoring the law, and the various heinous things he has done are too numerous to record. In Handu and even the entire Yizhou, Cui Jia is notorious, and everyone fears him and avoids him."

Fang Xuanling recounted Cui Jia's background as if he were familiar with his family treasures.

He made a living from this, known as the Great Tang Kaleidoscope!

No matter the people or events anywhere in the Great Tang, there was nothing Fang Xuanling didn't know.

"Hmph! This is truly unreasonable!"

"That such a beast could walk out of the Dali Temple alive, who exactly had the guts to let him go? When I go back, I will definitely investigate to the end." Li Er was furious.

"Cough cough..."

"Your Majesty, this case was adjudicated by you personally."

Fang Xuanling said a bit awkwardly.

"What did you say!? I gave the order?"

Li Er's eyes widened, surprised to the extreme.

How is that possible!

Why don't I remember?

"Has Your Majesty forgotten? Two years ago, Physician Cui Bi of the Boling Cui family personally met with Your Majesty, crying to Your Majesty about the Handu Cui family's generations of merit, and Cui Jia is the heir of the Handu Cui family, hoping that Your Majesty would let him go."

"Considering the influence of the noble families, Your Majesty didn't want to pursue it too much, so you waved your hand, opened your imperial mouth, and let this person go."

Fang Xuanling very considerately recreated the scene at that time.

Li Er's face turned green.

He remembered!

(cjfa) It seems... it seems there was such a thing!

Just as Li Er and Fang Xuanling were talking, Cui Jia had already led people to catch up with the young boy and girl and surrounded them.

"Go, let's go over and take a look!"

Li Er hurriedly took Fang Xuanling and walked over.

In the crowd.

The boy protected the girl behind him, looking at Cui Jia and the others without fear.

"Hehehe! Run! Why don't you run! In this Handu territory, no one has ever been able to escape from my palm. Even if you run to the ends of the earth, I can still catch you back."

Cui Jia laughed triumphantly.

"Brother Su, you go, don't worry about me! This has nothing to do with you, the person he wants to catch is me."

The girl pulled the boy, saying quite desperately.

"No! I am not just saving you, but observing the laws of our Great Qin! According to the Great Qin laws, anyone who is kidnapped on the street can be reported to the officials by passersby. Hold on, I will take you to the Great Qin government office now."

The boy said calmly.

This boy was none other than Su Dingfang, whom Qin Mu brought back from the Hexi Corridor!

Today.

When he was playing in the market, he suddenly saw Cui Jia kidnapping a girl.

Su Dingfang immediately realized the severity of the problem.

His Majesty had just moved the capital here, and it was the time when he urgently needed to establish prestige.

The security in Handu city could not have any mistakes.

Otherwise.

People's trust in His Majesty would be greatly reduced.

As the saying goes, one can see the whole from a small part!

Even the capital of the Great Qin was so chaotic that someone dared to snatch a beautiful woman on the street.

Then in other places, was the security even worse than one could imagine?

Thinking of this.

Su Dingfang didn't say a word, rushed forward, rescued the girl, and headed straight for the Handu government office.

Cui Jia was suddenly furious.

He had been arrogant and domineering for so many years, and no one had ever dared to snatch someone from his hands.

In a fit of rage.

He led dozens of subordinates, holding steel swords, and showed off in the market.
