    "Sir, which two are they?" Li Min asked in surprise and joy.  If two more are eliminated, then only half of the suspects will remain. With such a small scope of suspicion, I believe that the real culprit behind the scenes will be found soon.

    "The Boling Cui family and the Zhaojun Li family!" Wang An slowly said the two names.

    "Them? Why is this?" Li Min was a little surprised after hearing this. These two aristocratic families are the most powerful among the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes, and have the highest prestige among the scholar class. Normally, they should be the most eager to suppress the rise of industry and commerce.  Yes, then regarding the attack on Li Min, they should be more suspect than the others.

    "Haha, Your Highness, although the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes are very dirty, they are still very particular about character in some matters. Whether it is the Boling Cui family or the Zhaojun Li family, the reason why they can become the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes  The first and second ranked families, in addition to seizing the opportunity, the most important thing is their strict family tradition. Generally speaking, if the other party does not use dirty methods against them, they will never be the first to use assassination.  way!"

    Hearing that Wang An's reason was that he believed in the character of the Boling Cui family and the Zhaojun Li family, Li Min was a little dissatisfied. After all, he came from a later generation. In that society with corrupt morals and corrupt moral standards, such things as character  They are absolutely unreliable. In order to protect their own interests, no matter how good their character is, they may do anything by then.

    However, Wang An then said: "Of course, just based on the usual styles of these two aristocratic families, it is still impossible to completely rule them out, but in comparison, the suspicion on them is much smaller. Your Highness can focus on it first.  Investigate the Fanyang Lu family and the Xingyang Zheng family. If there are no results, it will not be too late to investigate the Cui family and the Li family."

    Li Min heard this.  Finally he nodded with satisfaction. These aristocratic families are not easy to mess with. Just investigating them is already very difficult, let alone investigating several at once.  Now put them in order and concentrate on investigating two, which will be more efficient.  It seems that I am going to find a chance to talk to the emperor's father.

    Next, Li Min chatted with Wang An for a while and introduced some of the situation in Chang'an City to him.  The main reason he entered the palace today was to report the attack to Li Shimin. He also wanted to see Concubine Yang, so he wanted to talk about making Wang An the king's Fu.  He hasn't found a chance to tell Li Shimin yet, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, tomorrow will be the official visit to the palace, and Li Min also asked Yan Bei to write a sealing memorial for him, and then submit it together.

    After sending Wang An away, Li Min immediately had a headache. Concubine Yang wanted to recruit concubines for him. Wen Xin must know about this first. With Wen Xin's intelligence, she would definitely be able to tell that Concubine Yang, her mother-in-law, was interested in him.  dissatisfaction.  This trouble is nothing more than that. After all, Wen Xin is reasonable and will not be very angry with her mother-in-law, but there will be a lot of troubles in the future.  Now that he is in the limelight, if Concubine Yang spreads the news that she wants to take a concubine, who knows how much trouble it will cause?

    No matter how hard it was, these things still had to be faced, and things turned out as expected, when Li Min told Wen Xin about it.  The other party immediately stared at her with a look of resentment. In fact, Wen Xin also knew that the most important reason why Concubine Yang was dissatisfied with her was because she had no heirs, but she could not be blamed for this matter. The two did not consummate their marriage at all, and  Where did the child come from?  In addition, Wen Xin actually mentioned the matter of taking concubines for Li Min to Li Min, but he rejected them all.

    The next day, Li Min and Wen Xin formally entered the palace to pay their respects. Fortunately, although Concubine Yang was a little dissatisfied with Wen Xin, she was still very affectionate on the surface. However, she reminded Wen Xin about Li Min's heirs both inside and outside her words.  Wen Xin also behaved very well and did not show any dissatisfaction.

    Originally, because of the rumors in Chang'an, Li Min was supposed to keep a low profile and keep a low profile, but after meeting Li Shimin yesterday, he knew that this was done deliberately to confuse the five surnames and Qi Wang, these big families, and make them think that Li Shimin  Zhen was probably too distracted by the matter of the throne.  Since Li Shimin had this plan, Li Min naturally had to cooperate, so he simply put aside his low profile and visited every house with prepared gifts.

    Most people were very enthusiastic about Li Min's visit. After all, Li Min was the most advantageous prince in the battle for the throne. Of course, many people reminded him that he should make this visit a success.  Keep a low profile for a while, and don't be too pushy. Most of these are people who are close to Li Min, such as elders such as Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong.

    There was another person who, after seeing Li Min, scolded him for being ignorant. How could he be running around in Chang'an City at this time?  Go back to your house and stay there!  Apart from Xiao Yu, there was naturally no other person who cared so much about Li Min and had such a bad temper.

    "Grandpa, don't worry. I paid such a high-profile visit on the order of my father!" Li Min had long been accustomed to Xiao Yu's bad temper, so he wasn't angry at all, but smiled and saidThe situation was explained again.  After returning to Chang'an, Wen Xin naturally wanted to go back to her parents' home to visit, and after learning about her life experience, she also had many things to ask her mother, so as soon as she arrived at Song Guogong's residence, she saluted Xiao Yu and immediately ran to the inner house to find her mother.  He left, leaving only Li Min to be entertained by Xiao Yu.

    Hearing that it was specially arranged by Li Shimin, Xiao Yu's anger subsided, and he was even more shocked when he heard that this matter actually involved big families such as Wu Xing and Qi Wang. After a while, he raised his head.  He said to Li Min: "Liu Lang, the five surnames and the Seven Hopes have united to suppress industry and commerce. This is not a trivial matter. How can you deal with it?"

    "Haha, don't worry, Grandpa. If I'm the only one, I won't be able to cope with it. But how many people's interests are involved in the entire industry and commerce? Not to mention anything else, there are countless people in Chang'an City alone who make a living from this.  In addition, all the upstarts of the Tang Dynasty have invested huge amounts of money in industry and commerce. These people are all my helpers. In two days, I will gather everyone together and mobilize all forces to fight against the suppression of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes!" Li Min  Said confidently.

    Xiao Yu nodded after hearing this. With Li Min's current prestige, he could indeed unite the upstarts of the Tang Dynasty, but he also thought of the various problems brought about by the development of industry and commerce, among which food was naturally the first.  Li Min also explained the three strategies presented by Wang An. At the same time, he also prepared a killer move. He had already reported it to Li Shimin before and did not hide it from Xiao Yu. However, Xiao Yu was old after all, so he had no idea about Li Min.  Li Min was a little dubious about his trump card, and Li Min didn't explain much about it.

    After the discussion was over, Li Min kicked out all the servants in Xiao Yu's living room, then turned to Xiao Yu and smiled bitterly: "Grandpa, can you hide this from me?"

    Xiao Yu was still thinking about Li Min¡¯s trump card when he suddenly heard Li Min¡¯s words. He didn¡¯t react for a moment. He looked at him in confusion and asked, ¡°Liu Lang, why did you say that?¡±

    "Grandpa, I already know Wen Xin's life experience, so you don't have to hide it anymore!" Li Min had to point it out again.

    Xiao Yu, who was unprepared, suddenly heard Li Min's words and immediately turned pale with shock. After all, this was no small matter. If people knew about it, it would be enough to confiscate the Xiao family and exterminate them.  Fortunately, Xiao Yu had been in the officialdom for many years and his character was very comparable to others, so he quickly forced himself to calm down.

    Li Min saw the old man's face change, and he felt a little regretful. He was still too reckless. He should at least give Xiao Yu a mental preparation. It would be too bad to scare him out now.

    After Xiao Yu calmed down, he lowered his head and thought for a long time, then raised his head and glanced at Li Min and said: "Liu Lang, I was at fault in this matter. Wen Xin's life experience should not be concealed, but Wen Xin didn't know it beforehand.  , I hope you will never dislike her because of this matter. If you are angry in your heart, feel free to come at me, I will accept it whether it is a beating or a punishment!"

    Li Min couldn't help but feel a little amused when he saw Xiao Yu's desperate look on his face, so he said, "Grandpa, I misunderstood. In fact, I don't mind at all about Wen Xin's life experience, and because of Wen Xin's relationship, I let him  I have gained the allegiance of a group of old ministers of the Liang Kingdom, so speaking of it, my grandson still has to thank his grandfather!"

    "Old minister of the Liang Kingdom?" Xiao Yu was very surprised after hearing this. The reason why he took in Wen Xin and his daughter was actually because they were helpless. In addition, Xiao Xian was his nephew, so he took the risk to  They stayed in his mansion, but he didn't know that Lu Qing and other old officials of the Liang Kingdom still existed overseas.

    Li Min also knew this, so he told the origins of Lu Qing and others, as well as the fact that Wen Xin also knew about his own life experience. He also told the story of how the identities of Hu Li and others were discovered under Pyongyang City.  After he came out, he didn't even hide the content of Li Shimin's subsequent conversation with him. After all, Xiao Yu reminded him several times, which saved him a lot of trouble. Now that he has the opportunity, Li Min will naturally repay him.

    "Although my father also knows about Wen Xin's life experience, please rest assured, grandfather, that my father has no intention of pursuing this matter. However, with his temper, he may give you a little bit of trouble. I hope you don't mind too much!  "Li Min finally said.  Speaking of which, he and Li Shimin's temperaments are very similar, that is, they will never suffer a loss. If they accidentally suffer a loss, they will find an opportunity to get the situation back no matter what.

    Hearing that Li Shimin also knew about this, Xiao Yu smiled bitterly. No wonder His Majesty didn't look good every time he saw him after returning to Chang'an this time. He thought he had failed to handle the government affairs well, but it turned out that he really  The root of the disease is here!

    "Your Majesty is so magnanimous, I really feel ashamed!" Xiao Yu's words really came from the heart, and he was extremely grateful to Li Shimin. After all, he was wrong in this matter in the first place. If he was really pursued, he would definitely be in trouble later this year.  Save.

    After staying with Xiao Yu for a while, Li Min asked to meet him.To meet Wen Xin's mother, although she is Li Min's real mother-in-law, Wen Xin is now Mrs. Wang's daughter in name. Therefore, even if Li Min comes to visit Xiao Mansion, he can only go to see Mrs. Wang. He cannot meet Mrs. Wang at all.  Wen Xin's biological mother.
