At this time, Cui Yi felt a strong sense of powerlessness in his heart.
He was thinking, how did things develop to this point?
The cause of the incident was just the collapse of one of Lu's factories.
In the eyes of these noble families, this is simply a trivial matter.
Even among those powerful ministers and nobles who stand high above the court, which one would really take this matter as a major matter?
It's just that some mud-legged people died.
They died in the factory, that's how they were meant to be!
Even the workers thought this was normal.
Isn’t this how everyone has been here for thousands of years?
Since ancient times, these high-ranking aristocratic families have chanted one sentence repeatedly.
The people are the most important, the ruler is the least, and Du is the second best!
However, these words are all meant to fool people, who would take them seriously?
When you are a common people, you must have the consciousness of being a common people.
The only meaning of their lives is to feed the rich and powerful families.
However, Su Li is different, he insists on being more serious about this!
He took everyone's nice words as a matter of justice, and then Thunder took action.
Originally, Wu Xing Qi Wang did not take Su Li seriously.
Su Li is very powerful, the only king with a different surname in the Tang Dynasty, and the most powerful official throughout the ages.
But so what?
How can one person's strength be able to defeat all the clans accumulated over thousands of years?
Originally, Cui Yi had been sitting on the sidelines.
Su Li issued the decree, and he sneered at Su Li for being young, nothing more.
Su Li killed people and sealed factories. He felt that Su Li was just a reckless man who did things without considering the consequences.
Su Li even targeted people from aristocratic families in the name of investigating corruption and land.
Cui Yi still didn't panic.
The clans and clans have been multiplying for hundreds of years, and the country has a prosperous population.
No matter how cruel you Su Li is, how many people can you kill?
Let him kill!
When the crowd becomes furious, it is natural for the clan to counterattack and make a final reckoning!
However, Cui Yi didn't expect that he still underestimated Su Li's ferocity.
Fan Yanglu's family was imprisoned by the Nine Clans just for plotting to assassinate his son!
That is the Lu family, which is also known as the Cui family in Qinghe!
The Lu family will be uprooted by Su Li, and what will happen to the Cui family who is now slightly inferior to the Lu family?
Cui Shu's matter is indeed not a big deal in Cui Yi's eyes.
The Cui family had six houses. If the Yanling house is gone, it will be gone.
However, the problem Cui faces now is a serious matter of life and death for the entire family.
Cui Shu's words gave Cui Yi a bone-chilling chill in his heart.
As he said, as long as Su Li is involved, common sense cannot be used to deal with it.
Su Li's methods are evil and his character is extremely vicious.
Lushi alone could not satisfy his appetite.
Looking at what he is doing now, it is clear that he wants to uproot all the powerful families in the Tang Dynasty!
In just half a month, only the Cui family in Qinghe lost four out of ten officials in the court.
The good situation that Cui had been managing since the Sui Dynasty was completely disrupted.
Although Cui is in the court, there are not many people in high positions.
However, the five surnames are Qi Wang, and Wang refers to the county Wang!
Being in a high position has its benefits, no one can deny this.
But the foundation of a prominent family is still local.
The five surnames and seven hopes are able to run rampant in the countryside and win such a huge reputation in the world.
It does not depend on the current prime minister or a high-ranking official.
What they rely on are the descendants of the clan who are officials in various states and counties across the world!
These people are the backbone of the clan.
Su Li's thorough investigation into corruption this time is to undermine the foundation of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes and to dig their graves!
With Lu’s lessons learned, who dares to underestimate Su Li now?
If we don't discuss a countermeasure, the lifespan of these noble families, who are jokingly called the thousand-year kings and the eighty-thousand-year turtles, will really be over!
A few days later, the Cui family's ancestral house was filled with people. 【012603112 Feilu 181573521】
Cui Yi sent out invitations to all the prominent families he could invite.
Almost all the heads of the aristocratic families who received the invitations came in person.
For the first time in thousands of years, a wealthy family held such a large-scale gathering.
The purpose is to discuss the life and death issues they face together.
As soon as the party started, Yanquan once again staged a drama of crying and calling for injustice.
However, at this time, the various clans no longer cared about Cui Shu's previous status as a second or fifth son.
The Lu family has been destroyed, so what's the point of worrying about it now?
What's more, it's hard to say whether they can see the sun tomorrow.
Who would be aggrieved for a Lu family that has been wiped out? Let's go through this hurdle first.
"Everyone came here to work today. I think everyone knows why." Cui Yi said slowly. two
Looking around, everyone here is the master of the clan. Wherever they are, they are all the emperors of the land.
However, at this time, these people all looked downcast.
Cui Yi sighed inwardly.
In the past, these people might have yelled at Su Li.
Now, they don't even have the heart to scold.
He could defeat ten guilds at one time, and with so many prominent families tied together, it was not enough for Su Li to defeat him.
I want to fight back, but I can't do it.
What to do?
At first, everyone thought Su Li was overestimating her abilities.
Later, he gradually admitted that Su Li was very strong and could fight back and forth with these aristocratic families.
But the collapse of the Lu family made them realize the reality.
When the gap is too large, only fear is left in the heart, and even anger is meaningless.
There is no doubt that the nobles at this time have all become bereaved dogs who live in panic.
"Su Li is fierce, you can't compete with him for a while..." Wang Zhao of the Wang family in Taiyuan sighed.
These words immediately aroused a burst of agreement from others.
Once this consensus is reached, other things will be easier to handle.
"Everyone, in the world, I am afraid that only the emperor can check and balance Su Li. It is said that the person who untied the bell must tie the bell. Why don't we go to the emperor to calm the current crisis?" Cui Yi continued.
The heads of many clans were stunned for a moment.
Later, the head of a small aristocratic family doubted: "Su Li is so rampant, doesn't mean that the emperor intends to condone it? Is it really okay for us to go and ask the emperor?"
Cui Yi smiled and said: "I don't think the emperor and Su Li are of the same mind. When the Lu family was destroyed, Su Li was suspected of using his power to force the emperor. Besides, the emperor was dissatisfied with our family, but he did not want to completely destroy the family. He's just waiting for us to give in, there's no doubt about it."
In Cui Yi's view, Su Li acted unscrupulously. Did Li Er really have no idea at all?
However, as the emperor, Li Er has been suppressed by the Five Surnames and Qi Wang for a long time. He urgently needs a sharp knife like Su Li to break the situation.
If Qiwang of the fifth surname takes the initiative to surrender to him, Li Er's goal will be achieved and he will naturally stop.
Even if they make a deal with the emperor, Qiwang of the Five Surnames will pay a huge price.
But at what cost is it not important to live?
