The woman from the Mi Clan faintly smiled and said, "Listen to this old woman's nagging first. When I'm done, you'll know everything about my Mi Clan!"
"The Mi Family was originally a prominent family … Prince Zhang should have heard about this from the Bai Family and the Gao Family before coming here, right?"
This old woman knew quite a lot.
Zhang Feng couldn't help but understand why everyone behind her had died.
She was afraid that her clansmen would suffer the pain of being imprisoned. Besides, this was the prison of the Ministry of Justice. Moreover, this matter had alarmed the Emperor. How could they come out after entering?
Moreover, the old woman also knew about the Qian Family. Since she came from the Qian Family, she must have passed by these places. Since she could come here, it meant that Zhang Feng knew everything he could.
There was no point in struggling at this point.
The old woman continued, "But in the Sui Dynasty, my ancestor touched the arm of the imperial concubine and was exterminated. We were only able to return to our ancestral home from the bitter cold when the Retired Emperor ascended the throne and pardoned the world. But … the glory of the past was long gone. So, the Mi Family had no choice but to find a big tree …"
"Prince Zhang, do you know why the Mi Family can continue to exist in Chang 'an? Usually, when people who are exiled come back, they may not be able to buy these properties even if they have money, let alone these properties. "
Zhang Feng was not in the mood to guess.
However, at this moment, there was a chance that he could catch the mastermind behind the scenes. Zhang Feng could only listen to her patiently.
"Tell me!"
The old woman chuckled and said, "Back in Liangzhou, which was also the border of the Tang Dynasty, the Mi Family inadvertently saved a businessman. This businessman lived in Zhaojun."
At this point, the old woman stopped talking.
Li Chengqian was shocked and said, "You mean the Li Family of Zhaojun?"
The old woman nodded. "Yes!"
"If it weren't for them, we wouldn't have any hope of returning to Chang 'an. But it's also because of this that we're connected to Zhaojun. But this matter really has nothing to do with us. My Mi Family didn't want to get involved with anyone or any force. After all, there's a precedent. But when my Mi Family came back, we owed a lot of favors, and this Tang Family took the biggest share. So this time, it's also the people of the Tang Family who asked us to come forward with the favor."
Zhang Feng didn't know how much of this was true and how much was false. But since things had come to this point, all the spearheads pointed to the Tang Family and the Wang Clan.
Zhang Feng no longer hesitated and got up to leave.
But the old lady asked in surprise, "Prince Zhang, this is …"
Zhang Feng didn't say anything. Instead, he hurried out.
His intuition was right. Moreover, she was just an old woman. What did he have to fear?
As soon as he went out, Li Chengqian hurriedly grabbed Zhang Feng. "Fengzi, do you know who that old woman is?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to know now. I just want to go to the Tang Family!"
Li Chengqian grabbed Zhang Feng and said solemnly, "Do you know the name of Granny Mi Zhi?"
Zhang Feng was stunned for a moment.
He had heard of Granny Mi Zhi and Granny Mi Zhi, but what did they have to do with this old woman?
Seeing this, Li Chengqian said, "The Mi family was originally close to becoming the ninth clan, but later on, they offended Yang Guang, which led to this. But do you really think what she said was true? The Li family only agreed to help them because I accidentally saved a Li family member?"
Zhang Feng frowned slightly. "Are you saying that the old woman is lying?"
Li Chengqian nodded.
However, Wei Shuyu continued, "She is Granny Mi Zhi. When they were in Liangzhou, the Mi Family was gathering their connections and preparing to return to Chang 'an. They also wanted to restore their former glory. The mastermind behind all this was Granny Mi Zhi. Don't underestimate this old woman. She almost alerted the Emperor!"
"During the Wei River Alliance, Granny Mi Zhi brought hundreds of kilograms of poison and offered it to the Emperor. She was prepared to poison the Turks. However, the Emperor didn't have the heart to do so, so he didn't choose such a vicious plan. At the same time, the Emperor ordered people to suppress the Mi Family after the incident."
"Think about it. A family that can produce such a huge amount of poison. How can the Emperor not be afraid? How can the history of Zhao Jun not be afraid?"
"That was also why the Li Family of Zhao County chose to help him. However, the price was that all the Mi Family's properties in Liangzhou would belong to the Li Family of Zhao County!"
"Do you know what the Li Family of Zhao County found when they took over?"
"Half of the entire Liangzhou basically belonged to the Mi Family!"
Zhang Feng couldn't help but be secretly shocked.
He didn't expect that such a benevolent old woman would be so ruthless.
At this moment, he finally understood why Li Chengqian and the others' expressions changed when Granny Mi Zhi was mentioned. .
However, what did this have to do with him?
After hearing this, Zhang Feng only uttered an "oh" and then headed for the Tang Family again.
He was blocked by Li Chengqian again.
"Feng Zi, although she is just an old woman, think about it. How terrifying is someone who can even abandon her own family at a critical moment? Everything today is caused by you. If you don't completely destroy her hope today, in the future … "
Zhang Feng was also annoyed.
He waved his hand and said, "If you want to go, go. I'll leave this matter to you. The rest of you, quickly follow me to the Tang Family!"
