After Zhang Feng sent these people away with great difficulty, he thought it over and decided that it would be best to send Zhang Yuyao and Jingshu back to the residence.
After all, Bie Yuan was located in one of the sixteen royal cities.
It was also the safest place at the moment.
From the looks of it, this matter wasn't as simple as Zhang Feng had thought. If he completely fell out with the Five Surnames and Seven Wang, the Guanlong Eight Great Families, and the Shandong clan, the consequences would be unthinkable. Moreover, this matter had already involved two families. The Shandong landowning household had yet to appear, so no one knew if the Shandong landowning household was involved. Therefore, Zhang Feng felt a bit guilty.
It wasn't that Zhang Feng was afraid, but that once this matter began, there would be no turning back. At that time, there would only be two paths to choose between life and death. There wouldn't be a third possibility.
Zhang Feng smoked one cigarette after another. The small wooden hut was quickly enveloped in a thick gloomy atmosphere. After an unknown amount of time, Zhangsun rushed in with Li Shimin and Liu Ruochen. They hurriedly rode their white horses and killed their way to the main entrance of White Deer College.
Li Shimin's expression was very ugly. He urged his horse to look around the mountain entrance and coldly asked the guard at the entrance, "Where is Zhang Feng?"
The guard had never seen the Emperor reveal such an imperious aura outside the palace. After all, this was the first time he had seen it on this desolate mountain. His heart trembled as he hastily pointed in the direction of Zhang Feng's small wooden hut.
Li Shimin urged his horse on and didn't care about anything else as he charged straight for the door of the small wooden hut.
The galloping white horse was rather docile. Just as it was about to crash into the small wooden hut, Li Shimin pulled on the reins. The white horse raised its head to the sky and neighed. Then it snorted and spun around on the ground. Only then did Li Shimin jump off the horse's back.
Although this white horse was selected from tens of thousands of horses after a strict screening by the people in the palace, according to the appearance of the white horse that Li Shimin had beheaded at the bank of the Wei River.
Although it was still not as brave as Li Shimin's white horse, it was good that this horse was docile.
Just like Li Shimin at this moment, Li Shimin was very fond of her.
Even though Li Shimin was already standing at the door of Zhang Feng's cabin, the white horse still rubbed against Li Shimin's sleeve, as if asking if he should wait here. Li Shimin stroked the white horse's mane, then looked at Cheng Chumo and said, "No one is allowed to enter the cabin, within ten steps of it!"
After giving the order, Li Shimin took a deep breath and entered the cabin.
As soon as he entered the cabin, Li Shimin frowned slightly. Looking at the smoke and fog in the cabin, he suppressed his anger and went in.
As soon as he entered, Zhang Feng saw Li Shimin. He pointed to the stool next to him and asked, "Why are you only here now?"
Li Shimin was a little speechless. After receiving Cheng Chumo's message, he suspended all the government affairs and rushed over without stopping. He even rode the white horse all the way from the palace.
He also heard something from Zhang Feng's words and hurriedly asked, "What happened?"
"Do you know what those people promised me today?"
Zhang Feng's expression was solemn, and he stopped fooling around. He looked at Li Shimin and asked.
Li Shimin frowned and said, "It's nothing more than those gold, silver, jewelry, rare treasures, and the like. What else can they have?"
Zhang Feng nodded and then shook his head. "In fact, they didn't promise me anything today. They just gave me a list, especially the guy surnamed Qian. Do you know that his family has more than 70 branches in Chang 'an City, and these are just the shops, not including other houses and the like. Moreover, they are just in the area of Liang Province. From what he said, it seems that all the properties in Liang Province belong to his family. And outside Chang' an City, there seems to be thousands of acres of fertile land. Do you know what this means? "
Li Shimin's face couldn't help but become gloomy in an instant. He had been very vigilant about the Guanlong Eight Families and the people of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs. He was so vigilant that he would personally ask about them every time. But even so, he still couldn't imagine that these people actually had so many properties in Chang 'an City. If the Guanlong Eight Families were like this, then what about the other seven families?
What about the people of the Five Surnames and Seven Wangs?
What about the people in Shandong?
In that case, how many properties in Chang 'an City belonged to individual investors? Li Shimin couldn't help but change his expression again.
At this time, he also thought of many things, especially what Zhang Feng just said. He even thought about it to the extent that Zhang Feng couldn't imagine. After all, he had dealt with these families more times than Zhang Feng, so he definitely knew more inside stories than Zhang Feng. At this time, Li Shimin turned to ask Zhang Feng, "Fengzi, what do you think about this matter? I heard from Tie Niu and Chong Zi that when you confronted the people of the Imperial College and the Red Pavilion during the Mid- Autumn Hunt, did you find a person hiding nearby? "
"Did you see who this person was? Or did you remember his appearance? "
