The Cui family has five surnames and seven looks,
Strictly speaking, they were the nobles of the Tang Dynasty.
Therefore, they were not afraid of Li Shi Min at all.
In fact,
They were not afraid of Li Yuan. Cui Shenping had only cooperated with Li Yuan before.
Li Shi Min was furious in the court,
But…
So what? Cui Yi didn't care at all, because he was the real representative of the Cui family!
What he wanted to do was to benefit the Cui family!
He wasn't really going to become a Yellow Sect Assistant Minister and benefit the Great Tang!
As he spoke, word by word…
All the officials in the imperial court understood.
To put it bluntly.
This was a fatal blow to Li Shiming by Li Yuan and the Cui family!
Moreover, you won't be able to raise your head at all!
Just like Cui Yi said, the real control of the official salt was not in their hands…
In whose hands?
Retired Emperor Li Yuan, that was the person who truly controlled the power of official salt!
His words could drive up the price of salt and cause the people to seethe with resentment!
As for Li Shimin?
He, the emperor who had just ascended the throne, could not do anything at this moment!
He flew into a rage in the imperial court…
The Cui family wouldn't cancel the cooperation with Li Yuan because of Li Shimin's anger.
That was impossible.
Moreover, even if Li Shiming fought with Li Yuan and took back the control of the official salt…
The Cui family didn't really care.
Anyway, it was just a struggle between two generations of the Li family. No matter what…
His Cui family would only be the winner!
As such, Cui Yi's expression was naturally calm, and he stood in front of the imperial court with an extremely calm expression.
Li Shi Min's face turned red with anger.
"Good, good, good…"
"What a Cui Clan…"
"What a great Retired Emperor…"
Li Shi Min gritted his teeth, his killing intent boiling to the extreme, his body trembling.
"I'll remember it!" he said coldly. Zhen remembers it all!"
"Retreat!"
An order was given.
This morning court session began and ended in fury.
Cui Yi left calmly.
All the officials sighed, especially those who were loyal to Li Shiming…
They knew!
The fight between Li Shiming and Li Yuan had started again. The last time was about the Hedong Road incident…
Li Shiming won!
But this time, everyone felt that Li Shiming's chances of winning were not high!!
……
The Imperial Palace, the royal study.
Li Shi Min was furious and once again summoned all his trusted ministers.
Li Shiming gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice," Send someone to the Cui family immediately to find Cui Shenping. See if we can get this old thing to cooperate with me!"”
As soon as he said this,
Everyone frowned.
" Your Majesty," Li Jing said in a deep voice," I'm afraid there's no hope. Cui Shenping is a cunning old fox. He won't cooperate with Your Majesty without any benefits!"”
"Cui Clan would like to raise the price of salt and cause chaos among the people. After all, they have always profited from the chaos…"
His analysis was correct.
Li Shi Min knew that too, but he gritted his teeth and said,"I know, but is there any other way?"! Imperial Father is deliberately dealing with me!”
"He wants to cause chaos among the people and make them seethe with resentment. Under the chaos, he wants to completely eliminate me and take back his throne!”
"If I don't look for the Cui family, do I look for my father?!”
As soon as he said this.
Everyone fell silent. Indeed…
It was even more impossible to find Li Yuan!
If there was still a glimmer of hope for him to find Cui Clan, he could find Li Yuan…
It was 100% hopeless!
However,
No matter who it was, they would feel a little aggrieved. Li Shiming was now the emperor!
But now…
He had to lower his head and send someone to Cui Clan to seek cooperation…
Moreover, it was very likely that he would be rejected!
How could they not feel aggrieved?!
"Your Majesty, there's actually one more person that we can try…" Zhangsun Wuji thought for a moment and suddenly said.
"Who is it?!" Li Shi Min hurriedly asked.
"Su Ze!" Zhangsun Wuji said.
"Su Ze?"
Li Shiming's eyes lit up. The magistrate who helped him solve the problem of Hedong Road?!
That's right!
How could I have forgotten about that miraculous county magistrate!!
However…
Li Shimin also thought for a while and said," But the problem with the official salt is only with my father and the Cui family. I'm afraid it's useless to ask him, right?"!”
It wasn't that Li Shimin didn't trust Su Ze.
Instead,
This was the official salt issue. Li Yuan controlled it and Cui Family produced it…
Li Shi Min could only watch from the side!
Now, they had to resolve the soaring price of salt and the boiling resentment of the people...
Shouldn't they be looking for Li Yuan or the Cui family?!
Looking for Su Ze?
He was just a small county magistrate. What was the use of looking for him?!
Zhangsun Wuji also knew this, but he couldn't stand Li Shiming lowering his head!
He didn't want Li Shi Min to lower his head!
Their faction had finally ascended the throne. Why should they bow their heads and apologize to the Cui family and the Retired Emperor Li Yuan?!
Zhangsun Wuji was unconvinced!
He gritted his teeth as he said," It's okay. We can try. If it doesn't work, we will go to Cui Clan..."
When Li Shi Min heard this, he nodded slightly.
Beside him,
Li Jing, Fang Xuanling, Cheng Yaojin, and the others were all stunned.
No,
Looking for Su Ze?
Who is this Su Ze? Tell me!!
However, Li Shiming and Zhangsun Wuji understood and would never reveal Su Ze's identity!
After all, Su Ze had once imprisoned them!
How could he say such an embarrassing thing?!
