759、Come on

During this period, Changsun Chong really experienced the warmth and warmth of human feelings. In the past, with the help of his father Changsun Wuji, he entered the most advanced aristocratic school in the Tang Dynasty, which was the Hongwenguan in the palace, which was specially designed for the royal family to cultivate descendants for high-ranking officials. There can be guidance from famous teachers here and can be used as reserve forces for officials. Moreover, they are descendants of senior officials of the Tang Dynasty. If there is no accident in the future, they will be promoted step by step and then successfully become the successor of their fathers. And if there is no accident, they will also become the emperor's son-in-law and the son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty.

But all this wonderful life was ruined by one person, that is Jing Wen. Jing Wen didn't know what kind of mystery he had given the emperor, but it made the emperor suddenly furious at his father. Changsun Wuji later found out that he was wrong, and he actually regarded the biggest enemy in the emperor's heart as his "friend". Such an unreconciliational thing actually came out of his mouth. Changsun Wuji regretted that why he didn't plead directly and confess his mistakes directly at that time, maybe he wouldn't end like this. But everything was over. Emperor Li Shimin already thought that he was a person who did not use any means for power and had no bottom line at all. Such a person is not suitable for the officialdom, or even in any industry.

Later, since he lost Li Shimin's trust, even the title of Duke of Zhao was almost gone. Because although the title had income, it also depends on the person. The title did not mean that he could directly rule his fiefdom. He just collected the tax on the fiefdom and then distributed it to the corresponding person by the relevant departments. However, whether intentionally or unintentionally, the officials who issued the titles began to deduct Changsun Wuji's title income, less than 20% of the original ones.

With the income of 20% of the title, how could it be that Changsun family like a big family? It turns out that relying on the fiefs of more than 1,000 households, at least it is equivalent to the income of tens of millions of yuan per year in later generations. Maintaining such a big family is a problem, and they all have to rely on some gray income to support them. But now, only 20% is obviously not enough. However, from Changsun Wuji to ordinary servants, they have already enjoyed the past days and cannot lower their living standards. This means that from frugality to extravagance is easy, but from extravagance to frugality is difficult. No one wants to lower their living standards, so how can they earn enough by relying on the title!

So, Changsun Chong began to think about doing business and making money. But at that time, Jing Wen also said that if the Changsun family wanted to get up again, Jing Wen would definitely suppress it. Therefore, Changsun Wuji believed that it was not safe to do any business, because with Jing Wen's official strength and commercial status, it was easy to suppress it. Therefore, there was only one way to avoid Jing Wen's investigation. Changsun Wuji was worthy of being an old fox, and he immediately thought of a way.

"Jing Wen, what do you want?" Changsun Chong shouted.

Jing Wen immediately spread his hands and said, "What do you want to do? You actually evade taxes. What can I do?"

"You caused it!" Changsun Chong said angrily.

Changsun Chong blamed Jing Wen for all this, because if it weren't for Jing Wen, he would still be a young man who enjoyed wealth and was ready to become a high-ranking official at any time. Next, he could marry a princess cousin, and his life was very successful. Now, his princess cousin was snatched by Jing Wen, and he still had to work for these common things. Originally, Changsun Chong didn't care about the money at all. But now he was bargaining with others for a mere dozens of coins of money, which was simply unacceptable to him.

Although more than ten cents of money are already a huge sum of money for ordinary people. However, for this young master who sells more than hundreds of cents of money, he believes that this kind of quarrel with others for more than ten cents of money is a great insult to him. However, he cannot not fight. After all, every time he spends more than ten cents of money, it will be hundreds of cents of money that year, and it is also a huge sum of money. Therefore, he had to bargain with the merchants he looked down upon. He felt that he was very embarrassed by the face of the aristocratic young master.

And who caused all this? It wasn't Jing Wen? If it weren't Jing Wen, would he have to end up like this? Jing Wen was just a farmer who was not as good as a clingy in ancient times. Such people have crawled onto their heads now, which made him feel unbearable. But he had no choice but to deal with Jing Wen. He could only recall his time at night after a day of work, but the young master was so handsome and happy that he was!

At that time, countless people came to please him, hoping to please Changsun Wuji by himself, and then use Changsun Wuji to say something to Emperor Li Shimin to help them. Changsun Chong did not realize at the time that people praised him was not enough for his father, even his aunt, Empress Changsun, and uncle Li Shimin. But now, Changsun Wuji has lost the trust of the emperor, and Empress Changsun has also become much alienated from their family. At least if there is no major event, he would not speak for the Changsun family. Therefore, this kind of favor is used once, which is less, so the Changsun family cherishes it very much and will not ask for Empress Changsun easily.

"What do you want to deal with me?" Changsun Chong asked.

And Jing Wen immediately said: "It's not what I want to deal with you, but what the law wants to deal with you!"

"Hmph!" Changsun Chong obviously scoffed at this so-called "law". In his opinion, all this was done by Jing Wen.

"You lack awe of the law so much, so what can you do? If you become an official and are also an official who harms the people, it seems that you are being beaten down!" Jing Wen said.

Jing Wen did not think that it would be bad for Changsun Chong to fall like this. Instead, he believed that if he became an official, he would harm the people. After all, a person who had no fear of the law would definitely be unscrupulous once he became an official. People must be respectful, and if they were fearless, it would probably be very terrible. In ancient times, emperors had to be awe, and the one who was feared was heaven. Li Shimin also had a certain sense of awe for the people, because Li Shimin also said that people could overturn the boats. When Li Shimin became a wise monarch, his awe-inspiring mentality was also a very important reason. Therefore, Jing Wen would never let Changsun Chong get up again. If he, a guy who had no awe-inspiring mentality for the law, would definitely be the people who were harmed.

"Okay, I want to ask you now, how did you get those perfumes? What channel did you get them?" Jing Wen asked. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
