第19章 魏武卒出，天下震怖
第二天，一则惊天动地的消息，引爆了整个朝堂。
御史台数十名御史，联名上奏，弹劾吏部尚书宇文述，结党营私，卖官鬻爵，贪赃枉法，罪证確凿！
弹劾的奏章里，附上了一份长长的名单。
名单上，所有的人名，物证，时间，地点，都清清楚楚，不容辩驳。
而这份名单，正是曹辰那本“李氏名册”的刪减版。
他只挑了和宇文家有牵连的那些人。
隋煬帝杨广，看到奏章，龙顏大怒！
他本来就对这些世家门阀，心存忌惮。现在看到宇文述竟然在自己眼皮子底下，搞出这么大的贪腐网络，简直是视王法如无物！
“查！给朕彻查！”
杨广一声令下，大理寺、刑部、御史台，三司会审。
一时间，整个大兴城官场，风声鹤唳，人人自危。
凡是和宇文家有牵连的官员，一个个都被抓进了大牢。
宇文述，也被当场罢官，软禁在家，听候发落。
宇文家，这座看似坚不可摧的庞然大物，在一夜之间，轰然倒塌。
而就在宇文家焦头烂额，自顾不暇的时候。
长孙无忌，带著曹辰的商业团队，对宇文家的產业，发起了总攻。
降价，挖人，散布谣言……
各种商业手段，层出不穷。
那些之前被曹辰用“李氏名册”威胁过的官员和商人，此刻为了自保，也纷纷倒戈，对宇文家落井下石。
墙倒眾人推。
短短几天之內，宇文家遍布全国的绸缎庄、当铺，纷纷倒闭。
商路，被切断。
资金炼，断裂。
宇文家，完了。
彻彻底底地完了。
当宇文述和宇文化及，明白过来，这一切都是曹辰的圈套时，已经为时已晚。
他们输了。
输得一败涂地。
他们到死都想不明白，曹辰，是怎么知道他们那么多秘密的。
而此时的曹辰，正在为另一件大事，忙碌著。
他和长孙无垢的婚期，到了。
这场婚礼，办得异常隆重。
十里红妆，从曹府，一直铺到了长孙府。
整个大兴城的百姓，都出来围观。
曹辰骑著高头大马，一身大红喜袍，意气风发。
他身后，跟著的是李存孝和飞虎十八骑，他们充当著迎亲的护卫，一个个盔明甲亮，威风凛凛。
当曹辰来到长孙府，將那个盖著红盖头的绝美女子，抱上轿时。
他感觉自己，拥有了全世界。
洞房烛夜。
红烛高烧，帐暖春宵。
当曹辰轻轻揭开长孙无垢的红盖头，看到那张宜喜宜嗔，娇艷欲滴的俏脸时，他心中所有的雄心壮志，都化作了绕指柔情。

“无垢，从今天起，你就是我的妻子了。”
长孙无垢抬起头，那双清澈如水的眸子里，映著烛光，也映著他的身影。
“夫君。”
一声轻唤，胜过千言万语。
曹辰俯下身，吻住了那片朝思暮想的红唇。
窗外，月色如水。
窗內，一室旖旎。
新婚燕尔，柔情蜜意。
曹辰享受了几天难得的温馨时光。
长孙无垢的温柔和聪慧，让他感觉无比的舒心。她不仅將偌大的曹府后院，打理得井井有条，还时常能在一些关键问题上，给他提出独到的见解。
有妻如此，夫復何求。
曹辰甚至產生了一种，就此沉溺於温柔乡，当一个富家翁也不错的想法。
但这个念头，很快就被他掐灭了。
他知道，自己来到这个世界的使命，绝不仅仅是享受生活。
大隋的天下，已经乱象纷呈。
杨广的倒行逆施，世家门阀的贪婪，地方豪强的崛起，再加上天灾人祸，百姓流离失所。
这座看似华丽的帝国大厦，早已是千疮百孔，摇摇欲坠。
他必须，在这座大厦倒塌之前，建立起属於自己的力量，才能在未来的乱世中，保护自己想保护的人，成就一番霸业。
这一天，曹辰將长孙无忌，叫到了书房。
“无忌兄，宇文家倒了，他们的產业，我们已经吞併得差不多了。雪盐的生意，也已经步入正轨。接下来，你有什么打算？”曹辰开门见山地问道。
长孙无忌如今，已经是曹辰商业帝国的大总管，地位一人之下，万人之上。
他闻言，沉吟了片刻，说道：“商业上的事情，已经不需要我时时刻刻盯著了。我培养了一批得力的管事，足以应付日常事务。我倒是觉得，我们现在，最缺的，是人。”
“哦？此话怎讲？”曹辰饶有兴致地看著他。
“我们现在，有钱，有兵，有產业。”长孙无忌的眼中，闪烁著睿智的光芒，“但我们缺的，是能够治理一方，运筹帷幄的真正的人才。”
“你我二人，精力有限，不可能事事亲为。李存孝將军，勇则勇矣，却非將帅之才。飞虎十八骑，是尖刀，却不是大军。”
“我们想要成就一番事业，就必须，招贤纳士，组建我们自己的核心班底！”
曹辰闻言，抚掌大笑。
“英雄所见略同！我今天叫你来，也正是为了此事！”
他从书架上，取下一卷竹简，递给长孙无忌。
“你看看这个。”
长孙无忌疑惑地接过，展开一看，只见上面写著几个名字。
房玄龄、杜如晦、魏徵、马周……
这些名字，在此时，都还名不见经传。
房玄龄，只是一个在地方上，当过小官的落魄书生。
杜如晦，也只是个在京城里，混了个閒职的小吏。
魏徵，更惨，早年出家当过道士，现在正投靠在反王李密的瓦岗军中，当一个不受重用的小小参军。

马周，则是一个嗜酒如命，穷困潦倒，甚至需要靠给別人当门客餬口的才子。
但在曹辰的眼中，这些人，每一个，都是未来能够名垂青史的顶级人才！
房谋杜断，魏徵直諫，马周辅政……
这简直就是一套顶级的治国班子！
“这些人……”长孙无忌看著名单，眉头紧锁，“我似乎……有所耳闻。房玄龄和杜如晦，在京中士林，略有才名。但这个魏徵和马周，恕我孤陋寡闻，从未听过。”
“你不需要听过。”曹辰笑了笑，“你只需要知道，他们每一个人，都有经天纬地之才。只要我们能把他们招揽过来，何愁大事不成？”
“可是……”长孙无忌有些犹豫，“这些人，有的身在朝堂，有的投靠反王，有的穷困潦倒。他们……会愿意投靠我们吗？我们现在，说白了，只是个有钱的商人，连一块自己的地盘都没有。”
“所以，才需要你出马。”
御史台数十名御史，联名上奏，弹劾吏部尚书宇文述，结党营私，卖官鬻爵，贪赃枉法，罪证確凿！
弹劾的奏章里，附上了一份长长的名单。
名单上，所有的人名，物证，时间，地点，都清清楚楚，不容辩驳。
而这份名单，正是曹辰那本“李氏名册”的刪减版。
他只挑了和宇文家有牵连的那些人。
隋煬帝杨广，看到奏章，龙顏大怒！
他本来就对这些世家门阀，心存忌惮。现在看到宇文述竟然在自己眼皮子底下，搞出这么大的贪腐网络，简直是视王法如无物！
“查！给朕彻查！”
杨广一声令下，大理寺、刑部、御史台，三司会审。
一时间，整个大兴城官场，风声鹤唳，人人自危。
凡是和宇文家有牵连的官员，一个个都被抓进了大牢。
宇文述，也被当场罢官，软禁在家，听候发落。
宇文家，这座看似坚不可摧的庞然大物，在一夜之间，轰然倒塌。
而就在宇文家焦头烂额，自顾不暇的时候。
长孙无忌，带著曹辰的商业团队，对宇文家的產业，发起了总攻。
降价，挖人，散布谣言……
各种商业手段，层出不穷。
那些之前被曹辰用“李氏名册”威胁过的官员和商人，此刻为了自保，也纷纷倒戈，对宇文家落井下石。
墙倒眾人推。
短短几天之內，宇文家遍布全国的绸缎庄、当铺，纷纷倒闭。
商路，被切断。
资金炼，断裂。
宇文家，完了。
彻彻底底地完了。
当宇文述和宇文化及，明白过来，这一切都是曹辰的圈套时，已经为时已晚。
他们输了。
输得一败涂地。
他们到死都想不明白，曹辰，是怎么知道他们那么多秘密的。
而此时的曹辰，正在为另一件大事，忙碌著。
他和长孙无垢的婚期，到了。
这场婚礼，办得异常隆重。
十里红妆，从曹府，一直铺到了长孙府。
整个大兴城的百姓，都出来围观。
曹辰骑著高头大马，一身大红喜袍，意气风发。
他身后，跟著的是李存孝和飞虎十八骑，他们充当著迎亲的护卫，一个个盔明甲亮，威风凛凛。
当曹辰来到长孙府，將那个盖著红盖头的绝美女子，抱上轿时。
他感觉自己，拥有了全世界。
洞房烛夜。
红烛高烧，帐暖春宵。
当曹辰轻轻揭开长孙无垢的红盖头，看到那张宜喜宜嗔，娇艷欲滴的俏脸时，他心中所有的雄心壮志，都化作了绕指柔情。

“无垢，从今天起，你就是我的妻子了。”
长孙无垢抬起头，那双清澈如水的眸子里，映著烛光，也映著他的身影。
“夫君。”
一声轻唤，胜过千言万语。
曹辰俯下身，吻住了那片朝思暮想的红唇。
窗外，月色如水。
窗內，一室旖旎。
新婚燕尔，柔情蜜意。
曹辰享受了几天难得的温馨时光。
长孙无垢的温柔和聪慧，让他感觉无比的舒心。她不仅將偌大的曹府后院，打理得井井有条，还时常能在一些关键问题上，给他提出独到的见解。
有妻如此，夫復何求。
曹辰甚至產生了一种，就此沉溺於温柔乡，当一个富家翁也不错的想法。
但这个念头，很快就被他掐灭了。
他知道，自己来到这个世界的使命，绝不仅仅是享受生活。
大隋的天下，已经乱象纷呈。
杨广的倒行逆施，世家门阀的贪婪，地方豪强的崛起，再加上天灾人祸，百姓流离失所。
这座看似华丽的帝国大厦，早已是千疮百孔，摇摇欲坠。
他必须，在这座大厦倒塌之前，建立起属於自己的力量，才能在未来的乱世中，保护自己想保护的人，成就一番霸业。
这一天，曹辰將长孙无忌，叫到了书房。
“无忌兄，宇文家倒了，他们的產业，我们已经吞併得差不多了。雪盐的生意，也已经步入正轨。接下来，你有什么打算？”曹辰开门见山地问道。
长孙无忌如今，已经是曹辰商业帝国的大总管，地位一人之下，万人之上。
他闻言，沉吟了片刻，说道：“商业上的事情，已经不需要我时时刻刻盯著了。我培养了一批得力的管事，足以应付日常事务。我倒是觉得，我们现在，最缺的，是人。”
“哦？此话怎讲？”曹辰饶有兴致地看著他。
“我们现在，有钱，有兵，有產业。”长孙无忌的眼中，闪烁著睿智的光芒，“但我们缺的，是能够治理一方，运筹帷幄的真正的人才。”
“你我二人，精力有限，不可能事事亲为。李存孝將军，勇则勇矣，却非將帅之才。飞虎十八骑，是尖刀，却不是大军。”
“我们想要成就一番事业，就必须，招贤纳士，组建我们自己的核心班底！”
曹辰闻言，抚掌大笑。
“英雄所见略同！我今天叫你来，也正是为了此事！”
他从书架上，取下一卷竹简，递给长孙无忌。
“你看看这个。”
长孙无忌疑惑地接过，展开一看，只见上面写著几个名字。
房玄龄、杜如晦、魏徵、马周……
这些名字，在此时，都还名不见经传。
房玄龄，只是一个在地方上，当过小官的落魄书生。
杜如晦，也只是个在京城里，混了个閒职的小吏。
魏徵，更惨，早年出家当过道士，现在正投靠在反王李密的瓦岗军中，当一个不受重用的小小参军。

马周，则是一个嗜酒如命，穷困潦倒，甚至需要靠给別人当门客餬口的才子。
但在曹辰的眼中，这些人，每一个，都是未来能够名垂青史的顶级人才！
房谋杜断，魏徵直諫，马周辅政……
这简直就是一套顶级的治国班子！
“这些人……”长孙无忌看著名单，眉头紧锁，“我似乎……有所耳闻。房玄龄和杜如晦，在京中士林，略有才名。但这个魏徵和马周，恕我孤陋寡闻，从未听过。”

“可是……”长孙无忌有些犹豫，“这些人，有的身在朝堂，有的投靠反王，有的穷困潦倒。他们……会愿意投靠我们吗？我们现在，说白了，只是个有钱的商人，连一块自己的地盘都没有。”
“所以，才需要你出马。”
