Chapter 1167: You Think Too Much
t, Duan Jinjiang was already teetering on the verge of collapse."Deputy Commander Chen, has His Highness agreed to see me"Before Chen Tong, Duan Jinjiang lowered his posture and asked with cupped hand...Chapter 1167 You Wish
Arranging the future for one's children is natural and something Li Chen acquiesces to.
As long as it doesn't affect the promotion channels for ordinary people.
But judging by Chen Tong's words, the Hu brothers seem to have a lot on their minds.
"The Donggong faction"
Li Chen raised an eyebrow and said coldly, "There are only officials of the imperial court in this world. There is no such thing as a Donggong faction."
Chen Tong hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Only Li Chen would dare to say something like that.
"What you're saying is that the Hu brothers were the masterminds behind manipulating food prices, but there's a powerful interest group pulling the strings, and most of its members are officials close to the East Palace"
Li Chen's question was as sharp as a knife.
Chen Tong looked conflicted and embarrassed, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Based on the current situation, it seems to be true."
"Okay."
Li Chen said indifferently, "Go and bring me those Hu brothers."
Just as Li Chen had finished speaking, someone arrived at the door.
The two young men who arrived, dressed in fine clothes, were none other than the Hu Ganwei and Hu Gandang brothers that Li Chen was looking for.
What's going on
Hu dared to enter with a gloomy face, seeing Tong shopkeeper lying on the ground in pain and the frightened servants paralyzed. His expression became even more sinister.
He immediately looked at Li Chen.
Although the room was crowded, it was clear to anyone with eyes that Li Chen was the core of this group.
"Sir, are you here to make friends or enemies" Hu Dangwei asked in a cold voice, his tone filled with iciness and menace.
Although his father is about to retire, he is still in office. After the new policies are implemented, he is promoted to the second rank, and no one inside or outside the court dares not to give their Hu family face.
But today, he actually received the news that his own shop had been vandalized. He was furious and immediately started thinking about how to teach these people a lesson.
Just as he finished speaking, Li Chen didn't even bother to respond.
On the contrary, Chen Tong was a little embarrassed.
His Highness said he wants to have these two brothers brought here.
Chen Tongzheng was struggling, he turned his head and saw Wan Jiajiao, but he saw Wan Jiajiao giving him a wink. He immediately had a flash of inspiration.
Chen Tong didn't say a word, and directly gave the order to the Jinyiwei next to him.
"Got it!"
What's up
What's tied up
When the two brothers Hu Gan Wei and Hu Gan Dang were still in confusion, several Jinyiwei officers stepped forward. Without a word, they grabbed the two brothers and began to attack them.
The servants brought by the Hu brothers rushed forward, but they were no match for the Jinyiwei. One by one, they were thrown to the ground within moments.
Screams and wails echoed throughout the area.
Hu Dangwei and Hu Dangdang, the two brothers, were also held down by their heads and tied up like zongzi.
Chen Tong kicked them one by one, forcing them to kneel before Li Chen.
Hu Dagang raised his head, struggled for a moment, and glared fiercely at Li Chen: “Do you know who we brothers are Just based on what you're doing right now, I tell you, you're dead! If you can live to walk out of Beijing, I'll take your surname!”
"What's my last name"
This time, Li Chen finally looked at him squarely, but what he said almost made Hu Ganwei spit blood with anger.
"You wish."
The Li clan, the surname Li is a national surname. If one does not have great contributions to the country, it is impossible to be bestowed with a national surname. Therefore, Li Chen thought that Hu Gangwei was wishful thinking.
In Hu Dagang's view, this is just humiliation.
Hu Gangwei wanted to say something else, but Hu Gangdang, who had remained silent all along, suddenly interrupted him.
"Sir, I am an official of the court. To bind me in such a manner is a grave offense. Before we proceed further, please untie us and let us speak civilly. How about that"sengers from the Long family came" Sanzang asked."Not many, just three of us, plus the guards, that's only five people in total." Chen said."Okay."Sambao nodded, and said in a startling manner, "Let's...
