My Reputation Is Worse Than That of a Child! (, tickets.)
The seven great clans were godlike existences in the Great Tang.
Especially in the eyes of the general public, it was unattainable and unreachable.
Usually, not to mention the young masters of aristocratic families, even the stewards and waiters of aristocratic families were superior figures.
If you were lucky enough to serve a cup of tea to a young master from an aristocratic family, you would be praised as knowledgeable.
But now, such a person who seemed to have lived in the clouds had appeared in front of the King of Shu's residence, and…
Seven at a time!
This was a blessing that had been cultivated over several lifetimes to see such a noble young master.
The seven of them also had arrogant expressions. In front of ordinary people, they had the right to be arrogant.
"What are you shouting about? Don't make a ruckus in front of the King Shu Residence!”
The guard of the King Shu Residence came out and reprimanded.
"Didn't you hear who I am? How dare you talk to us like this, I…"
Cui Wei 'en of the Cui clan of Boling was displeased on the spot. He wanted to say something, but was interrupted impatiently by the guards of the King of Shu.
"A descendant of an aristocratic family, but a white body. This is the front gate of the King Shu Residence, and my lord has the identity of the master of Hongwen Dojo.”
"As the children of aristocratic families, you can be considered to be from a scholarly family and a family of etiquette. How can you be so noisy and rude?”
"If you have something to say, say it. If not, leave quickly. Otherwise, you will be sentenced to death on the spot for attempting to assassinate the King of Shu!”
Cui Wei 'en and the others were so scared that they took a few steps back. They could clearly feel that the guard was not joking.
All of a sudden, the noble and superior feeling of the children of aristocratic families disappeared.
She was still very afraid.
"We, we are the descendants of the seven great clans. We are here to deliver the visiting cards.”
Cui Zhe's aura immediately weakened as he handed the invitation card to the guard.
"Five days later, the Patriarchs of the seven great families will come back to Chang 'an to visit the King of Shu.”
The guard nodded.
"Wait a moment."
After saying that, he turned around and went into the manor to report to the King of Shu.
After a while, she ran out.
"My lord has said that he can see your patriarch.”
"Let them come in five days.”
the guard said silently.
"You can leave now."
Cui Wei 'en and the others were dumbfounded. That was it?
After all, he was a guest. Shouldn't he receive him?
This was too disrespectful.
"My Wangye is busy every day. He has many big things to do. How can he have time to see you small characters?”
The guard saw through their thoughts and directly sneered.
"Hurry up and scram, or else you will be executed on the spot for attempting to assassinate the King of Shu!”
Cui Weimin and the others…
How f * cking infuriating. Was that all he knew?
He was killed for murdering the King of Shu. No matter what he said, he didn't dare to say anything to regain his face.
In the end, he could only leave obediently and report to the family head.
Chang 'an City had a new topic to talk about after tea. The young master of an aristocratic family was nothing. He was not even qualified to enter the gate of the King Shu's Mansion. The aristocratic family could not do it anymore!
Cui Zhe, Cui Jue, and the other seven family heads had already arrived at the Inner Pass Road. They happened to meet Cui Wei 'en and the others. After hearing this, the family heads were also unhappy.
"This King of Shu is so arrogant. No one has ever dared to not give us face like this!”
"Hmph, you brat. You have no manners and are not a son.”
"After this matter is resolved, we must let him know how powerful we are!”
Wang Xun of Taiyuan's Wang family, Zheng Hongji of Xingyang's Zheng family, and Lu Shanyu of Fanyang's Lu family were furious. They had never been so angry before.
"Don't be impulsive. A little forbearance will ruin the plan.”
Cui Zhe said calmly.
"We came here to solve the problem, not to vent our anger.”
"Now that the King of Shu has crushed us in all aspects, he has the right to be arrogant. Before we came, we had already thought about it and wanted to lower our status.”
"As long as I can make the King of Shu happy, why not let him slap his face once?”
The few family heads fell silent.
They wanted to object, but they had to admit that Cui Zhe was right.
"Remember, this is a show of our sincerity. Don't worry about what others think.”
Cui Zhe reminded again.
"Let's put everything aside and focus on this matter first.”
Everyone nodded.
"Brother Cui will be in charge."
Cui Zhe was relieved and brought the other six family heads to Chang 'an.
As soon as he entered the city, he was stopped by a group of Imperial Army soldiers, led by Li Shimin's trusted general, Li Junxian.
"General Li, what is the meaning of this?"
Cui Zhe asked.
"By His Majesty's decree, we invite the seven family heads to enter the palace for a chat.”
Li Junxian smiled.
"We still have important matters to attend to.”
Chui Zhe flatly refused and wanted the coachman to continue driving.
"Master Cui, masters, this is an invitation from His Majesty!”
Li Junxian coldly said.
"Heh, so what if it's an invitation from His Majesty?”
Cui Zhe sneered.
"We are here to visit the King of Shu and discuss important matters, not to chat with Li Erlang!”
"Let's go!"
"To the King Shu Residence!"
"I want to see if Li Erlang dares to kill me!”
With Cui Zhe's order, the carriages continued onward, swaggering past Li Junxian in a smug manner.
"General, are we just going to let them pass?”
"This is too aggrieved!"
The brothers of the Imperial Army expressed indignantly.
They were members of the Imperial Army and were directly dispatched by the Emperor. They were also awe-inspiring existences in Chang 'an. Now that they were being scolded and rejected the Emperor's invitation, it was too embarrassing.
"What can you do?"
Li Junxian bitterly smiled.
"Ever since the Retired Emperor and His Majesty Jin Yang raised their armies, the seven great clans have funded them, which is why the Great Tang of today is here.”
"The seven great clans control more than half of the officials in the imperial court. His Majesty doesn't dare to offend them easily.”
"Let's return to the room and report to His Majesty."
In an instant, the imperial guards were all discouraged and retreated unwillingly. Their eyes were filled with hatred as they looked at the people from the aristocratic families. When would they be able to truly stand up!
In Taiji Palace, Li Shiming kicked the Dragon Book table, his brow standing on end as he angrily glared at Li Junxian.
"Is what you said true?"
"Did they really say that?"
Li Junxian nodded with a wry smile.
"I am speaking the truth, not exaggerating at all.”
Li Shi Min gritted his teeth and said.
"Good, this is simply going too far."
"It turns out that in your hearts, Zhen's reputation and status are not even as good as a child!”
"Your aristocratic families are really going too far!”
