Chapter 254 Why is it so difficult to do something bad?

"Duke Zhou was afraid of rumors, and Wang Mang had not usurped the times; he died in the first place, but who knows the truth or falsehood of his life?"

At this moment, Chen Ying suddenly realized.

He knew there was a pit ahead, but no normal person would jump in. Perhaps only blind people or people with problems with their heads would jump in. Chen Ying was not blind and his head was stupid, so he would never jump in even though he knew it was a fire pit.

Chen Ying has been avoiding risks and rarely makes mistakes. In Li Xiuning's opinion, this is not normal.

In Li Yuan's opinion, Chen Ying probably had a great idea.

Now, Chen Ying finally found the knot. But even though he knew the real knot, he smiled bitterly, not only bitterly.

The politics of the early Tang Dynasty was relatively clear, but this was only relatively speaking, corruption still existed, and the number was shocking. As a doctor in the Bijun, Xu Jingzong controlled more than 300 officials of all Tang Dynasty, and had problems in the accounting accounts, both large and small, more or less. If these more than 300 officials were compared among all Tang Dynasty officials, he would find that this proportion was as high as one-third.

Xu Jingzong received training from Chen Ying's future generations of learning. It can be said that in this era, any false accounts cannot escape his eyes. For example, in Cheng Zhijie's alcohol-filled accounts, there are endless names of reports of damage. Vehicles have overturned once, bandits have been moved once, ferry has sunk once, and warehouses have been watered once...

These items of loss are also valid, and the amount of alcohol lost ranges from thousands or two thousand kilograms. However, as long as you compare the consumption of alcohol in the ordinary season, you can find the problems at a glance.

Chen Ying hated corrupt officials in later generations, and he was not short of money. If Chen Ying needed money, he had a Tang Dynasty Tongli Money House and many industries to make money for the future. Chen Ying had no need to embezzle or take bribes. In an exaggeration, Chen Ying was one of the few rich people in Chang'an City who could count.

As for bullying men and women, Chen Ying couldn't do it even more. With Chen Ying's face, as long as he needed women, he would probably flock to the eldest daughter and daughter-in-law in Chang'an City. As for provoking trouble, since Chen Ying was promoted to Duke of Liang, General of the State, and Li Jiancheng, a great celebrity in the Eastern Palace, unless his head was in water, someone would provoke Chen Ying. Even if Chen Ying was domineering, he could not find a partner to show his power. Looking at the entire Chang'an City, from princes and nobles to common people, no one was unhappy to find Chen Ying.

Chen Ying covered his head and said in pain: "Sanniang, what should I do? Otherwise, I will force my daughter to steal..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Xiuning gritted his teeth and said, "You dare..."

"Women... they are all wrong!" Chen Ying smiled and said, "You also said that I did not make any mistakes. This is wrong. Otherwise, tomorrow, I will take the time to beat His Highness the King of Qi and let him complain to His Majesty?"

Li Xiuning stared at Chen Ying for a while and said, "Then I don't know who beats whom!"

"Oh..." Chen Ying sighed, Li Xiuning's words were true.

In terms of skills, Li Yuanji is really much stronger than him. When fighting alone, Chen Ying will definitely not be able to fight Li Yuanji. Even Chen Ying carries Li Yuanji's horse spear.

Li Xiuning looked at Chen Ying with a brow, and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Being a bad person and doing bad things actually requires talent. For example, Chen Yingzhen cannot take action when facing a helpless and pitiful person.

Unexpectedly, Chen Ying lay in bed with depression.

Li Xiuning looked at the troubled Chen Ying.

Chen Ying instantly thought of something that could make people angry and resentful in the future. He turned his head and immediately had an idea. Chen Ying stood up and smiled and said, "I have a way!"

Li Xiuning said: "What method?"

Chen Ying smiled but refused to answer.

Chen Ying looked at Li Xiuning and said, "Sanniang, you can rest at home, I'll come when I go!"

Chen Ying stood up and wore a thick cloak. As soon as he walked to the door, Guo Luo came up and said, "Master, what are you asking?"

Chen Ying said: "There should be a curfew in Wuhoufang now, right?"

Guo Luo nodded and said, "There has been banned half an hour ago!"

Chen Ying thought for a while and said, "Let your brothers get up, each ride two horses, and follow me to the Duke of Liang's mansion!"

Chen Ying also wanted to make a small mistake and let the censor impeach. He ignored the curfew and ran on his horse at night. This would give the censor a reason to impeach. Anyway, such a mistake would be harmless.

It is amazing, I issued an order to punish the matter and punish the copper. The key is that Chen Ying is not short of money and is not afraid of punishment!

More than one hundred personal guards and more than three hundred war horses gathered in quickly. Chen Ying stepped onto the war horses and walked along the fang road towards the Liang Duke's Mansion in Changrenfang.

However, when he just walked to the gate of Qujiangfang, more than a dozen Wuhou Bu archers on duty leaned out, one of the Wuhou stepped forward and ordered: "Who, stop!"

The whip in Chen Ying's hand exploded with a whip flower and shouted: "Get out!"

The dozen Wuhou shrunk their heads and retreated back into the fangmen cave, and opened the fangmen!

Chen Ying was slightly stunned. According to the normal script, shouldn’t these Wuhou not recognize their relatives?

However, these Wuhou did not stop or block them. Chen Ying wanted to make excuses but could not find excuses, so he had to run towards Changrenfang.

...

Just after Chen Ying and his stroll, one of the Wuhous looked timid: "Zheng Fangzheng, why don't you stop him?"

"Stop it? You don't even open your dog's eyes wide!" Zheng Fangzheng said angrily: "That's General Chen, Prince Chen, how dare you stop him? Believe it or not, he's so fluttering his butt?"

"But... our responsibilities..."

"Now is not as good as before, the curfew has been dead in name only!" Team Zheng looked at the direction of the bright lights in the distance and said, "Our Qujiangfang is so bitter. If General Chen hadn't been kind, you wouldn't even drink the northwest wind!"

There is no moisture in this sentence. Qujiangfang is the southeast corner of Chang'an City, and a little further south is Qujiangchi. There were no other families before, and these families moved in the past two years. Some of them were scattered from the previous dynasty and returned to Chang'an and lost their place. Some were dilapidated and they sold their ancestral homes and couldn't come here to build a shack. Who can live here with rich families? In the former Sui Dynasty, this was Yang Xuangan's property. He bought most of the Qujiangfang. Later, Yang Xuangan was confiscated and his family was exterminated due to rebellion, and most of the people in Qujiangfang lost their livelihoods.

If Chang'an City is divided according to several rings, Qujiangfang is definitely outside the Sixth Ring Road.

After finally waiting for Li Xiuning, Li Yuan rewarded Furong Garden to Li Xiuning, but Chen Ying changed Furong Garden to Datang Boren Hospital. As this place began to open to the public, Qujiangfang gradually flourished.

Boren Hospital needs to consume a lot of food, vegetables, and meat, and also requires a large number of people to engage in errands and rough manpower, such as cleaning, cleaning up garbage, transporting supplies, and most of these tasks are the people of Qujiangfang who are close to the water and get the moon first.

It is no exaggeration to say that the entire Qujiangfang was supported by Chen Ying, and they all followed Chen Ying to have dinner.

...

Chen Ying and his party ran along the fang road. Unexpectedly, not only Qujiangfang, but also no one stopped them in other fangs. What Chen Ying didn't know was that as the Tang Dynasty established itself in Guanzhong longer and longer, the Tang Dynasty became more and more stable, and the curfew policy of Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty was in name only.

Children of the aristocratic families need nightlife. They need to drink flowers, listen to songs, watch dances. Even Hongxiuzhao is open almost all night, but tomorrow it will be rare.

Since Chen Ying built the Chenjiabao in Qinglin, the Liang Duke's Mansion has been empty, and Gao Wenjin and his brothers are usually guarding the house here.

Gao Wenjin was very surprised to see Chen Ying coming, but she still warmly welcomed Chen Ying into the mansion and served tea.

Chen Ying looked at the Duke of Liang's Mansion and said a little dissatisfiedly: "Guo Luo, is this mansion too small?"

Guo Luo nodded and said, "I'm a little too small and I'm not worthy of my master's identity!"

"That's true!" Chen Ying nodded and said seriously: "A dozen or so families around this house, give them some money and let them get out of the house. I've bought the house!"

Guo Luo said: "Ma San is responsible for the matter of the outer courtyard. Let him send someone to discuss tomorrow!"

"It's better to hit the day than choose a day!" Chen Ying raised his eyebrows and said, "Just now!"

"Now?" Guo Luo looked at the howling cold wind outside, and the snowflakes were falling down sparsely, and said helplessly: "I'm afraid it's not good now, right?"

"Just now!" Chen Ying knew that Changrenfang was close to the palace city. The people living here were neither rich nor noble, nor even big or small. Once Chen Ying was forced to buy and sell at this time, they naturally had a way to impeach him.

Chen Ying looked at Gao Wenjin and said, "How much cash does the mansion have in it? Just buy a house at the market price and let them take the money and leave!"

With Chen Ying's order, Gao Wenjin opened the money treasury, and the soldiers of the guards entered the money treasury, carried boxes of copper coins or silver, and knocked on the door door to door.

After a while, there were waves of shouting and scolding around the Duke of Liang's mansion, children cried and adults shouted, and arguing. However, facing a group of fully armed soldiers, these people could only break their teeth and swallow them into their stomachs.

Chen Ying listened to the shouts and noises coming from his ears, as if they were like fairy sounds. I am afraid that after dawn, a censor would impeach him to bully others.

In this situation, Chen Ying walked into the bathroom and took a beautiful bath. Especially when he looked at Gao Wenjin who was serving him, his face turned red from beginning to end and his neck was very satisfied.

Without a dream all night, Chen Ying slept until it was almost noon the next day. Chen Ying slept until he woke up naturally. While washing, he asked Gao Wenjin: "Is someone from the palace?"

Gao Wenjin shook her head and said, "Report to my husband, I have not seen the palace servant here!"

Chen Ying was secretly surprised when he heard this.

"It's not right!" It's almost noon now, so the officials of the Tang Dynasty are not so inefficient, right? Isn't impeachment of the powerful and noble image of not fearing power? Isn't this the censor's favorite thing to do?

Chen Ying was a little confused, but he still should eat. Just as Chen Ying picked up the chopsticks, Guo Luo came in and reported, "Master, Zhang Daoyuan is asking for a meeting!"

"Zhang Daoyuan?" Chen Ying thought for a while, feeling that he didn't remember this person in his head, so he asked in confusion: "Do I have a relationship with him?"

Guo Luo said embarrassedly: "Master, the house next to our left is his. He was driven out last night..."

Chen Ying suddenly realized.

I'm afraid that Zhang Daoyuan met a soldier last night, and he couldn't explain it clearly, so he came to discuss it specifically today.

Zhang Daoyuan was actually not an unknown soldier. Li Yuan promoted his righteousness in Taiyuan and summoned Zhang Daoyuan as the general's house Cao Jun. After conquering Chang'an, he established the capital, and sent Daoyuan to accompany Li Shentong to comfort Shandong, Yan and Zhao to obtain the title of the Duke of Fanyang County. Later, he was appointed as the Minister of Dali. At that time, He Chou and Shi Cheng were guilty and his family had been detained, so he still gave it to him. Zhang Daoyuan sighed and said, "It is normal for people to be peaceful. How can one take his children and concubines because of his own good fortune and benefit others? How can one take his children and concubines as servants? How can one give up his heart and benevolent?" He gave up on them and took nothing.

At this time, Zhang Daoyuan had been moved to the Taipu Temple Minister, one of the five prisons of the Nine Temples. If it were in the Qin and Han Dynasties, he would have been one of the Nine Ministers and one of the great bulls of the Wude Dynasty in the Li Tang Dynasty.

Chen Ying said: "Tell him that this general is busy. His house is already surnamed Chen. Today I will go to the yamen to transfer the property. If you don't agree, just sue me!"

At this moment, an old man with white hair and beard, wearing a scarlet official uniform, a black soft-horned head, and a silverfish bag hanging around his waist slowly walked towards Chen Ying with a trembling and trembling support from a young man.

Faced with such an old man, Chen's personal soldiers dare not stop him. If they bump into each other, Chen Yingke will be unable to explain it clearly.

Chen Ying had no choice but to put down his chopsticks, politely towards the old official, and said, "I don't know if you are!"

"I, Zhang Daoyuan, is the Minister of Taipu Temple!" Although this old man is not young, his voice is very loud and his energy is strong. Zhang Daoyuan actually pushed the young man who helped him and said, "Yi'er, kowtow to his benefactor!"

Chen Ying was really confused at this moment. He said to Zhang Daoyuan: "Tao Pu Zhang, are you mistaken? This general has never given the Zhang family a kindness. He dare not be the redemption of Chen Ying!"

Zhang Daoyuan bowed and said, "It's impossible to be wrong. Last night, the general's command of Hu Ben invited the forty-seven young people from the Zhang family out of his family to prevent the Zhang family from being destroyed. Such kindness, kneel down on duty!"

Chen Ying was stunned.

He clearly wanted to be a villain and a villain who oppressed good people, but he really didn't expect that the act of forcing his house to buy a house last night was to save people. Zhang Daoyuan's house collapsed, and none of the seven main houses were spared. If Zhang Daoyuan still lived in the house at that time, he would probably be the first to be affected. Even Zhang Daoyuan's favorite grandson Zhang Yizhi would probably not be able to escape death.

Zhang Yizhi is Zhang Daoyuan's only hope. If he dies, the Zhang family will have no hope.

Chen Ying suddenly realized.

Zhang Daoyuan was in Changrenfang and was highly respected. If his main house had not collapsed suddenly, he would have been impeached directly to Li Yuan without others' impeachment. The key is that after they left yesterday, the Zhang family's house was crushed by snow. Chen Ying's move was not only unforeseen, but also made contributions.
