"...Hedong is not without grain; it is held by aristocratic families and grain merchants. I merely wish for the families to open their purses, yet someone dares to attempt assassination... Since that is the case, let General Tang knock on the doors of the Hedong families!" Li Shu said.
Tang Ziqian smiled faintly and said, "Prince Jin, please be patient. It's not yet time for armed conflict."
The aristocrats are entrenched in Hedong, with prominent families such as Pei, Liu, and Xue holding significant positions within the court.
Li Shu himself brought the imperial guard, yet tasks Tang Ziqian with offending these great families. Tang Ziqian will not be fooled.
"Not time for armed conflict?" Li Shu sneered, "Wasn't the injury on my body a result of armed conflict?"
Tang Ziqian gently replied, "You were wounded by petty thieves, and we are all worried. However, I have brought someone to knock on the doors of the Hedong families."
"Who?"
