Traveling across the heavens starting from the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 51 Seven families gather in Huiwen Museum
Hui Wen Guan.

It was a place where literati in Chang'an City chatted, made friends through literature, and debated scriptures and Taoism.

The entire Huiwen Hall is a cloister-shaped building, with a huge field paved with bluestone in the middle. In the middle of the field is a high discussion platform, open on all sides and covered by curtains.

Standing on the forum, you can see everything going on around you at a glance.

And today.

However, the person in charge of Fan Yang's Lu family in Chang'an City ordered that the Huiwen Museum be closed down, and it would no longer receive literati who came, and it would not be open to the public for the time being. It would be closed for three days.

Yesterday, the person in charge of the Fan Yang Lu family in Chang'an City received a message from the ancestral land of the Fan Yang Lu family. The head of the family was about to come to Chang'an City. The Fan Yang Lu family in Chang'an City was required to clean up the Hui Wen Hall in advance and no one was allowed to stay. A bunch of people were waiting to clean the hall thoroughly.

A curtain was hung to cover the Taoist platform, as well as a straw curtain to prevent prying eyes.

Inside the Huiwen Museum.

The person in charge of the Fan Yang Lu family in Chang'an City stood in the corridor of the Huiwen Pavilion, looking at the servants who were urgently transferred from the house to help clean the yard, and asked the housekeeper who was following him.

"Is everything ready?"

"Back to Mr. Lang, everything is ready. The literati who are temporarily staying in the museum have been temporarily moved to other places for temporary residence."

"The entire Huiwen Hall has been emptied, and it is full of people from our Fan Yanglu family."

The butler pointed at the entire venue in front of him.

"After it is collected, everyone in our Chang'an City Mansion will evacuate and hand it over to the old man who came from Fan Yang's ancestral land. There will not be a single idle person waiting in the entire Hui Wen Hall."

Of course, the old people mentioned by the housekeeper are not literal. The old people here refer to those servants who were born, grew up, and raised in Fan Yanglu's family since childhood. They are all young and strong family servants. It is also the most basic strength of the Fan Yang Lu family.

"Best."

The person in charge of the Fan Yang Lu family in Chang'an City said with some worry.

"This time, not only the head of our Fan Yang Lu family will come to our Fan Yang Lu Family Library, but also the heads of six other families will come. If something goes wrong."

"The clan rules will not let us off lightly."

"I know you should be more careful."

The housekeeper was busy making guarantees.

"Okay, go and get busy, I'm going back too."

"Remember, let the people below be strict with their mouths. Not everything can be inquired about or talked about outside."

The head of the Fan Yang Lu family in Chang'an City once again gave instructions to the housekeeper before leaving, fearing that the servants at home would spread gossip in private.

After all, some of these domestic servants in Chang'an City still make him feel uneasy to use them, unlike the dependent servants in Fan Yang's ancestral land, who are more worry-free to use.

One accidentally tarnished the master's family's reputation.

In any case, this is Chang'an City, not Fanyang, the ancestral land of the Lu family. This is the place where the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty stands, so you can't be too careful.

The Lu family is still unable to stop all the monsters and monsters in Chang'an City.

This is also the reason why after the Huiwen Hall is cleaned up, the entire Huiwen Hall will be temporarily handed over to people from the Fan Yanglu family's ancestral land to take over.

It's not because of his caution, but because this is an arrangement from the head of the family.

As for the reason.

He had no way of knowing.

Even this time, the head of the Fan Yang Lu family suddenly came to Chang'an City. He, the head of the Fan Yang Lu family in Chang'an City, received the notice at short notice.

What's more, soon after, the heads of six other families also came to Chang'an City and chose to live in Hui Wen Guan.

Can't figure it out.

He didn't know the truth, and he didn't really want to know.

Everything is just done according to the arrangement of the family master.

"Lang Jun, do you really don't need me to follow you?"

Outside the gate.

Li Ruoqiu looked worriedly at Li Huaian who was pulling the carriage, and at the dozens of boxes loaded on the carriage. The boxes were wooden boxes common in the Tang Dynasty.

"Okay, you have to give Cui Yu some face."

"Besides, I'm just talking about things, not fighting. It'll be fine."

"Be at home and wait for me to come back."

Li Huaian patted Li Ruoqiu's little face, turned to the maid Taohua next to him and said, "Taohua, take your young lady back to the house and wait for me to come back."

"Slave..."

The maid Tao Hua was a little reluctant.

Li Huaian comforted him: "Be obedient, or I will get angry."

Seeing that Lang Jun insisted on doing this, Li Ruoqiu could only nod her head and said: "Lang Jun, Nujia and Taohua will be obediently waiting for you to come back in the house. Lang Jun must come back safely."

"It's not like a dragon's pond or a tiger's den, it's okay."

Li Huaian replied to Li Ruoqiu and the maid Taohua, and then drove the carriage towards the Huiwen Pavilion under the watchful eyes of the two beauties.

Go to meet the head of the family named Qiwang.

Cui Yu came to Huiwen Hall early in the morning and stood outside the gate, looking in the direction from Xinghuafang.

When he saw Li Huaian driving his carriage, he quickly stepped forward to greet him.

Today, he is the guide responsible for ushering Li Huaian into the Huiwen Museum.

"Brother Li, here we come."

"Well, here we come."

The carriage stopped at the gate of Hui Wen Pavilion. Li Huaian jumped off the carriage, pointed at the dozens of boxes on the carriage, and said to Cui Yu beside him.

"Brother Cui, ask people to move these boxes off the car and follow me in. Remember to tell them not to open the boxes at will and look at the boxes inside. I don't care. I'm just afraid that your family master will be very angry and order those who see these. The life of the person in the box.”

"The things in these boxes are the things you mentioned?"

Cui Yu's expression condensed when he heard this, and he cautiously came to the carriage, touched the wooden box on the carriage, and asked Li Huaian if the things inside were the things he said at Dingxiang Tower that day.

"Yes."

Li Huaian nodded.

Seeing Li Huaian's confirmation, Cui Yu's face was full of caution. She waved her hand and asked the servants of Fan Yanglu's family who were on duty at the Huiwen Hall to come out and move the boxes off the carriage.

Before these servants of Fan Yanglu's family moved the boxes.

He ordered in a deep voice.

"Be careful. Don't knock or touch the contents of these boxes. If you break up a box and spread out the contents, you people will be deaf, blind, and broken." hand."

"Got it?"

"Please rest assured, Mr. Cui Yu, the servants are all old people who came from Fan Yang's hometown with the master. There is someone under his command, so they will not delay the master's important matters."

"Even if there is an accident, I don't need to be reminded by Mr. Lang. We will take care of it ourselves and keep all the secrets for our masters."

One of the servants of Fan Yanglu's family bowed to Cui Yu and replied.

Cui Yuan calmed down and waved the servants to start moving things from the carriage. Just like he trusted the old people of the Cui family in Qinghe, he also had full trust in these old people from the ancestral land of the Lu family in Fanyang.

Because these old people supported by their respective families are all inseparably tied to their respective families.

After instructing the servants of Fan Yanglu's family to do their work.

Cui Yucai smiled at Li Huaian on the side and said, "Brother Li, let's enter the Huiwen Hall. These servants of Fan Yanglu's family will follow us carrying things." After saying that, he made a gesture of invitation.

"it is good."

Li Huaian agreed, looked up at the Huiwen Pavilion in front of him, and walked towards the door.

Walk into the door of Huiwen Hall.

Cui Yu asked the servant carrying the box to follow him before he came to Li Huaian. As he walked inside, he introduced the situation in the Huiwen Hall.

"Brother Li, because you have to talk to my uncle and the others, the Huiwen Hall has not been open to the public these three days, so it seems a little deserted. It used to be very lively here."

"The Fan Yang Lu family has a high status in the literary world. There are many literati in Chang'an City who are inextricably related to the Fan Yang Lu family."

"So the Fan Yang Lu family built such a literary hall in Chang'an City, which was used as a gathering place for the literati in Chang'an City and those literati who came to Chang'an City to discuss Taoism."

"It can be said that the largest number of scholars in Chang'an City are gathered here."

Walking to the cloister, you can see the most important part of the Huiwen Hall, the Taoist Forum.

Cui Yu pointed at the discussion platform that had been covered up.

"Brother Li, my uncle and the heads of the other six families are already waiting inside. There is no one around to disturb your conversation."

"With the Taoist Forum as the center, except for the servants who were used to guard the Taoist Platform today to prevent accidents, the surrounding area has been cleared."

Li Huaian stood in the corridor, looking at the lonely Taoist forum in the distance, and at the guard servants who were surrounding the Taoist forum at least 20 meters away. Each one had a saber on his body, and some even held spears.

He even saw archers on the walls of the house.

Except there is no armor on him.

The discussion platform was very tightly guarded by these guards and servants of the Fan Yang Lu family.

It can be seen how seriously Qi Wang, the fifth surname, attaches great importance to this meeting with Li Huaian, so much so that it implies the threat of force through the use of heavy guards.

No matter if it's a threat or not.

For Li Huaian, it was all useless. Since he dared to come to Hui Wen Guan alone to meet the head of the family with five surnames and seven looks, he was absolutely sure to leave safely.

He is no ordinary time traveler.

There is a system.

Scared.

Big deal.

Play by ear.

As long as the situation is not right, directly start the world teleportation and teleport back to Li Mansion from Huiwen Hall.

Maybe.

Cui Yu also knew about the formation in front of him, and his uncle and the heads of the other six families wanted to take the opportunity to pressure Li Huaian.

So he said hastily.

"Brother Li, should these boxes be moved to the forum, or should they be placed aside and be taken out after you finish talking with my uncle and the others?"

heard.

Li Huaian walked towards the forum and left a word to Cui Yu behind him.

"Of course you went to the forum with me. If you don't show these things to your uncle and the heads of the other six families, they won't believe me."

"Even if they come to Chang'an City, they probably don't have much true faith in their hearts."

Falling with his voice.

Cui Yu waved to the servants carrying wooden boxes to follow Li Huaian, while he stood there, guarding the forum in the distance, waiting for the results to come out.

There is bound to be a result today.

Avoid long nights of dreams.

He had a conversation with his uncle yesterday. Regardless of whether it was true or false, this matter could not be delayed.

Royal Palace.

"The Fan Yang Lu family sealed the Hui Wen Pavilion in Chang'an City?"

"Leave Hui Wen Pavilion to the heads of seven of their families?"

Li Shimin looked at the secret report that had just been sent in his hand, read the contents, pondered for a while, and then asked the man in black robes kneeling beside him.

"Do you have the opportunity to enter the Huiwen Hall to check the situation and show me what the owners of these seven families are doing?"

"The minister is guilty of death."

The man in black robe buried his head in charge of the crime.

"One day ago, the Huiwen Hall began to clear out all the literati who were temporarily staying in the hall. Even our people were invited out of the Huiwen Hall and arranged to live elsewhere. The handymen in the Huiwen Hall today They have all been replaced by servants who know the Fan Yanglu family well, and these servants are all servants who came from the ancestral home of the Fan Yanglu family."

"These servants have taken over everything in the Huiwen Hall, except for the outside of the Huiwen Hall, where servants from six other families have been borrowed to guard it."

"I really can't get any closer."

"I once took a look at it from a distance. The head of the Fanyang Lu family and the heads of the other six families have all gathered on the Dao discussion platform in the Huiwen Hall today."

"The discussion platform has also been covered with curtains in advance. The straw curtains prevent prying eyes. The situation inside cannot be seen from a distance."

"Even the area around the forum has been cleaned up."

"There is no one in the distance of 20 meters around the forum. Only 20 meters away there are many armed guards standing back to back to monitor."

"In the corridor of the Huiwen Pavilion, there may be guard servants watching over the forum."

".."

"I discovered that even the walls of the Huiwen Hall were guarded by guards."

Li Shimin quietly listened to the man in black robe describing the layout of the Huiwen Pavilion today. He stood up and came to the gate of Tai Chi Palace to find the direction of the Huiwen Pavilion. Although he could not see the Huiwen Pavilion with his eyes, his thoughts It seems that I have reached the sky above the Huiwen Pavilion, watching everything in the Huiwen Pavilion.

"The Lu family of Fan Yang, the Cui family of Qinghe, the Wang family of Taiyuan..."

"What are the heads of these seven families doing in Chang'an City? They didn't say hello to me before they came, and they didn't come to the palace to inform me when they came."

"Do these aristocratic families still have eyes for me, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty?"

At this time, Li Shimin, without any anger or authority, was like a fierce dragon bound by countless iron chains made of heavenly shackles. He stood in front of the Tai Chi Palace, unable to move and could only stare into the distance.

There is great potential to break through the iron chain and destroy the world.

For the first time, he felt that even after becoming the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he could not control the world. When he was the king of Qin, he was cautious, respectful to his father and wary of the prince.

How could it be that now, as the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he still has to be restrained and cautious, stared at and hindered by courtiers, and ignored and disrespected by these wealthy families?

Then wouldn’t it be true that he was the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty for nothing?

Li Shimin really wants to take the palace guards to the Huiwen Hall now to see what these seven families are going to do. Since the mountains can't come, I will go and see for myself how difficult it is to move these seven mountains.

Just when Li Shimin was about to lose control of his impulse, a graceful and noble woman appeared within the scope of Tai Chi Palace. After he saw it, he temporarily suppressed the volcano-like anger in his heart.

He asked calmly to the man in black robe who was still kneeling on the ground.

"Except for the heads of these seven families who are in the Huiwen Pavilion, are there any outsiders entering the Huiwen Pavilion today?"

"Yes, even the former owner of Liuli Pavilion, whom the saint has been asking me to pay attention to, also pulled a carriage and dozens of boxes into the Huiwen Pavilion today."

"The person who greeted this man was Cui Yu, an official of the Cui family in Qinghe."

After Li Shimin listened, he didn't answer. He waved his hand and asked the man in black robe to step back. He then walked towards the graceful and luxurious woman.
