Chapter 181
Hou Junji looked at Lin Dongyang, and said coldly: "I will say it again, let Lin Xuan come out!"
With a smile on his face, Lin Dongyang said, "Lord Lu Guogong, Xuan'er is indeed not at home, and the old man has already sent someone to look for it."
"If you don't believe me, he must be hiding and dare not come out. Let me go in and have a look. If he is really not there, I will leave right away!" Hou Junji said.
"My lord, it's really inconvenient to have a female family member at home. Xuan'er is really not here. When he comes back, the old man asks him to come to the door to make amends in person. Do you think it's okay?" Lin Dongyang said.
How could Lin Xuan dare to let Hou Junji in with his own soldiers who used to be like wolves and tigers.
Lin Xuan was riding a horse and saw a group of armored soldiers surrounding his house from a distance.
Without asking, Lin Xuan knew that it was Hou Junji who brought someone to the door.
He guessed before that even if Hou Junji couldn't swallow this breath, he would at most go to Li Shimin to impeach him.
Unexpectedly, he brought someone directly to his house, and it seemed that he had been here for a while.
Hou Junji said impatiently: "Since you won't let me in, then don't blame me for forcing your way in. Someone rushes in, if someone stops you, just injure him, don't kill anyone!"
When Lin Xuan beat his son, he came to his door. Even if the trouble came to Li Shimin, he would still be polite, but if he killed someone, it would be different.
Hou Junji's soldiers listened to the order and were about to strike. Lin Xuan's soldiers at home quickly pulled out the knife from his waist.
There were only 20 of them, and Hou Junji brought 100 of them, if they didn't draw their swords, they couldn't be stopped at all.
Lin Xuan's personal soldiers also knew that they couldn't do anything, they just wanted to use this method to make them use the mouse.
Hou Junji's soldiers did not show weakness, they drew their weapons one after another, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Hou Junji was also a little bit hard to get off, if not done well, it would turn into a fight with weapons.
"Stop!" Lin Xuan shouted!
Lin Dongyang and Hou Junji breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Lin Xuan coming.
Lin Xuan drove his horse quickly to the door, handed the horse to the soldiers behind him, looked at Hou Junji and said, "Master of the Ministry of War, you led troops to forcefully break into my mansion. Could it be that you want to rebel?"
Hou Junji quickly said: "Lin Xuan, you fart. You beat my son. I came to ask you to explain. These are my soldiers!"
Of course Lin Xuan knew that those people were his own soldiers, and Hou Junji didn't have the guts to dispatch troops without permission.At least not yet.
He said this in order to blow Hou Junji's arrogance.
"Father, you go in first, I will handle this matter." Lin Xuan said to Lin Dongyang.
Lin Dongyang said with a little worry: "Xuan'er, if you have something to say, don't conflict with Lu Guogong."
"Father, don't worry, I will take care of it." Lin Xuan gave Lin Dongyang a reassuring look.
Only then did Lin Dongyang feel relieved, and cupped his hands to Hou Junji and said, "My lord, my son has already returned, if you have anything to say, the old man will go in first."
Hou Junji didn't speak, he was looking for Lin Xuan, he didn't care if Lin Dongyang was there.
After Lin Dongyang entered, Lin Xuan looked at Hou Junji and said, "I don't know what Master Shangshu is going to ask me for."
Hou Junji glared at Lin Xuan and said, "You beat my son for no reason, so let's just forget about it?"
Hou Yong looked at Lin Xuan viciously from the side. It was the first time he was slapped when he was so old. That slap made him hate Lin Xuan very much.
Lin Xuan smiled and said, "I don't know what Master Shangshu wants to do?"
Hou Junji said: "I am an elder after all, and I don't want to get too fussy with you. If you pay [-] yuan, let's forget about it."
Although Hou Junji is the Duke of the state, he really doesn't have much money in his hands.
He knew that Lin Xuan was very rich, whether it was the Zuixian Tower or the Liuli Pavilion, he was making money every day.
"Father, how can we just forget about it!" Hou Yong was anxious.
To him, money is not as important as face. Anyway, he can just go home and get it if he has no money.
Hou Junji glared at Hou Yong, and shouted, "Shut up!"
He regretted bringing Hou Yong with him. If Lin Xuan was not allowed to lose money, would it be possible for someone to beat Lin Xuan up?
In any case, Lin Xuan is Princess Changle's son-in-law. Although he is not married yet, Li Shimin has already married him.
Isn't hitting Lin Xuan the same as hitting Li Shimin in the face?
Seeing Hou Junji's eyes, Hou Yong shrank his neck in fright, and dared not say anything more.
Lin Xuan laughed, what Hou Junji and Hou Yong said made him seem to agree.
Seeing Lin Xuan's expression, Hou Junji thought he had agreed, and said with a smile: "If you ask someone to send the money to my mansion, I will go back first."
"Wait, Master Shang Shu may have misunderstood, but I didn't agree!" Lin Xuan said.
Ten thousand guan is not much, and Lin Xuan doesn't care.
But it is impossible for him to give Hou Junji.
Who knows if he will rebel in the future, will someone make a fuss about it.
We must know that Wei Zheng once recommended Hou Junji in history.
Because of this incident, coupled with Li Shimin's long-standing grievances against Wei Zheng, Li Shimin ordered Wei Zheng's tombstone to be pulled down in a rage.
He also issued an edict to cancel the marriage contract between Princess Hengshan (later named Princess Xincheng) and Wei Shuyu, the eldest son of Wei Zheng.
Lin Xuan didn't want to be implicated by Hou Junji in the future.
Hou Junji said with a gloomy face, "You mean you don't agree?"
"What does your son say I am? After all, I am a magistrate appointed by His Majesty. How can he insult me?" Lin Xuan said.
A trace of panic flashed in Hou Yong's eyes, he didn't dare to go to see Hou Junji, he kept this matter a secret.
Looking at Hou Yong's expression, Hou Junji knew it was true, but now is not the time to worry about it.
"No matter what, you beat my son. Since you don't want to pay, then apologize!" Hou Junji said coldly.
He came here with great fanfare, it's impossible to go back in despair, otherwise where would his face be?
Now that he knew that Hou Yong was at fault first, he didn't want to pay compensation anymore, he just hoped to have a step down and save his face.
Lin Xuan shook his head and said, "I am not wrong, it is impossible to apologize."
"You..." Hou Junji blushed and pointed at Lin Xuan.
Hou Junji took face very seriously, and Lin Xuan didn't give him any face at all.
Hou Junji's rationality was completely swallowed up by his anger, and when he was about to order his own soldiers to take down Lin Xuan, there was a rush of horseshoes in the distance.
"Your Majesty has a decree to pass on Duke Lu and Marquis of Jingyang County to enter the palace!" Li Junxian shouted loudly.
Li Junxian's words made Hou Junji calm down.
"Let's go!" Hou Junji gave Lin Xuan a cold look, and got on his horse.
Lin Xuan shrugged, got on his horse, kept a distance from Hou Junji, and headed for the palace.
……
"I see Your Majesty!" Hou Junji and Lin Xuan bowed and saluted.
"The two of you, a duke of the state and a county lord, brought your own soldiers and clashed on the street. If I hadn't sent someone to call you over, would you have started fighting? Do you two want to rebel? "Li Shimin said angrily.
"I dare not!" Hou Junji and Lin Xuan said hastily.
"You don't dare? Then tell me, what is the reason why you brought your own soldiers and drew your swords to confront each other?" Li Shimin asked coldly.
He knew what was going on, but he didn't show it.
Hou Junji said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Jingyang County beat the dog, and I went to ask for an explanation. Unexpectedly, not only did he not apologize, but he also said that he was right."
Li Shimin glared at Lin Xuan, and said, "Why are you beating someone when you have nothing to do?"
Li Shimin's words seemed to be blaming Lin Xuan, but he was actually helping Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan also looked aggrieved, and said: "I don't want to, Hou Shangshu's son, what is a minister, anyway, I am also a county marquis appointed by your majesty, don't you want to lose face? I couldn't hold back for a while, so I lightly Slap him lightly."
Li Shimin was a little speechless, and he didn't slap people in the face. Does this have anything to do with the severity?
"Is what Lin Xuan said true?" Li Shimin looked at Hou Junji and asked.
"I'm not very clear about what happened at that time." Hou Junji didn't dare to lie in front of Li Shimin, as it was easy to find out what happened.
Li Shimin said: "I will let people investigate this matter clearly. If it is true that Lin Xuan beat someone for no reason, I will definitely let him give you an explanation."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Hou Junji said gratefully.
Could it be that his heart was already filled with anger.
Li Shimin meant that if Hou Yong said that, the beating would be for nothing.
He thought he was loyal to Li Shimin, but he didn't expect that Lin Xuan's position in Li Shimin's heart could not be compared.
"In view of the impact you two have caused, each will be fined for half a year!" Li Shimin said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The two quickly thanked each other.
"Okay, you guys go back!" Li Shimin waved his hand and said.
Lin Xuan and Hou Junji bowed and retreated.
"Hmph!" Hou Junji snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, and left directly.
Lin Xuan shook his head, this time he offended Hou Junji badly.
Thank you zhangheqin for the monthly pass.
