Li Jing has sent someone to tell Zhao Chen about the matter at today's court meeting.

Cheng Chumo came here for lunch just now. By the way, the emperor was in the court today, because of the horseshoe matter, his face turned dark.

At this moment, Zhao Chen squatted under the tung tree in the backyard of the tavern, picked up a branch in his hand, and casually opened a few pieces of soil.

The locust eggs were not found, which made Zhao Chen feel much more relieved.

Although the life and death of the people of the Tang Dynasty had little to do with him, he did not want to see the scene of people suffering from misfortune.

Shaking his head, Zhao Chen slowly stood up.

It was already afternoon, and Empress Changsun should have come.

No matter whether it is open or secret, Old Li will not make up the idea of ​​his own money.

After all, this person has to take into account any influence whenever he says.

But Empress Changsun would not let her go like this.

After such a long time of contact, Empress Changsun didn't say anything to her.

Even if you are not so good to your son.

But this was the money Zhao Chen cheated out of the emperor, and Empress Changsun clearly would not agree.

She can give money, and Zhao Chen can also make money by herself, but she will never let Zhao Chen cheat on the emperor.

Zhao Chen was a little complaining in his heart that Liu Zhenghui was a good person and bet that he would not use his own money, but instead use the money from the treasury. He was really a personal skill.

Now, I don’t know how much money I have to vomit back!

However, Zhao Chen didn't rely on some small money either.

Now, the more than 20,000 yuan is really a small amount of money for Zhao Chen.

If you return it, you will return it, and it is no big deal.

I will find the place back from Lao Li in the future!

"What bad thoughts have you had again?" Empress Changsun's gentle voice sounded behind Zhao Chen.

I don't know when she came here.

Zhao Chen turned around and smiled: "No, my aunt came here, why didn't I tell me in advance, Auntie, lunch is available?"

"You kid, today let Li Jing deceive His Majesty and ministers in the court. You are just a cunning little fox." Empress Changsun sat down on the recliner beside her and looked at Zhao Chen with a smile.

"Aunt, what you said is wrong. This is clearly something you want to do, why did you cheat? Besides, I didn't go to the court today. I heard from someone that what happened?

Yes, if you want to reason, you should go to Duke Wei, right?”

"I am sitting at home, and the pot comes from the sky. Zhao Chen is unjustly dead!" Zhao Chen defended.

He would not admit with Empress Changsun that he had conspired with Li Jing and cheated the ministers in the court.

If this is spread, those ministers will not rush over and fight with him?

"You child, don't talk to your aunt, too, Duke Wei, who is actually messing with you. Today, you give your aunt an explanation, otherwise the ministers will definitely come to you." Empress Changsun angrily looked at Zhao Chen, it was almost gone.

I will just say that I will help you get rid of the ministers.

Zhao Chen opened his mouth. This was the first time she had realized the power of Empress Changsun.

Although there is no mention of a word about silver and money, it is clearly necessary for Zhao Chen to hand over the money he won from the Tai Chi Hall today.

Awesome!

He is indeed a famous virtuous queen!

Zhao Chen thought to himself.

But since you have prepared before...

"My aunt's light is enough to reflect every corner of the Tang Dynasty. Zhao Chen's admiration for his aunt is like a continuous river, or like the Yellow River flooding, and it is out of control."

"It happened that Zhao Chen got a batch of odorous things that were stained with copper. He specially offered half of them to express Zhao Chen's admiration for his aunt!" Zhao Chen bowed his hand and said, with a look of rebellion on his face.

"When you got married to Ruoshuang, my aunt originally planned to give you five hundred guan as a gift, but His Majesty said that five hundred guan is a little less, so now I am going to give you ten times, five thousand guan. Do you think it is appropriate?"

Empress Changsun said with some meaning, but she did not tell Zhao Chen everything.

Zhao Chen almost jumped up.

Empress Changsun’s move is a bit ruthless!

Half of them were not satisfied, and he actually left only five thousand guan.

Wouldn't this be a waste of work?

"There is a lot of five thousand guan. My aunt has this intention. Zhao Chen is extremely grateful. He especially regards the 20,000 guan he won from the court today as a thank you." There is no way, this is Zhao Chen's last bottom line. If not,

Satisfied, Zhao Chen had to beg.

"Oh, why are you so polite to your aunt? But since you are so kind, your aunt accepted it. Just now I have time, so I will go to the Duke of Wei's Mansion to propose marriage for you!" After careful consideration,

Only then did Empress Changsun accept the 20,000 yuan promised by Zhao Chen with a "reluctant look", pat Zhao Chen on the shoulder, and left with a sigh.

...

Shortly after Empress Changsun left, Cheng Chumo, who had just left, appeared in Zhao Chen's tavern again with Qin Huaiyu.

Both of them were still following a team of people.

These people are all tall and big. At first glance, none of them are easy to mess with.

Zhao Chen knew that these people were the generals of Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu's family.

The two brought them here, and Zhao Chen was not very clear about the reason.

"Zhao Chen, these are some of the good-looking things in my family and Xiao Qin. You and Uncle Fu live here, and there is no helper. We are always a little worried, so we arranged for them to come and protect your safety.

”

"In the future, they will be yours." Cheng Chumo and Zhao Chen said.

"We will pay homage to the county marquis." More than a dozen people bowed to Zhao Chen in unison.

They were all responsible for making paper for Zhao Chen before.

I have long seen Zhao Chen's ability, so I naturally would not have any thoughts of despising him at this moment.

Everyone looked at Zhao Chen with enthusiasm.

"You guys get up first!" Zhao Chen said.

Fortunately, there were no guests in the tavern today at noon, so Uncle Fu also went to Doctor Xue’s Mansion to take a walk.

Otherwise, it would definitely be shocked by these people.

"You let them follow me, I don't even have a place to live here." Zhao Chen, Cheng Chumo, Qin Huaiyu and others said.

His tavern originally had only two rooms.

Usually if Li Ruoshuang came over, Zhao Chen would have to hit the floor.

What should he do with these dozen people?

"Your Marquis' Mansion is still under construction, and it will definitely not be completed this year. Why don't you and Uncle Fu move to my place?" Qin Huaiyu said with a smile.

This is also what his old man Qin Qiong means.

According to Qin Qiong's words, even if he is closer to Zhao Chen, Qin Huaiyu can be influenced.

I will definitely become smarter in the future!

"How can this be done? Zhao Chen is about to marry his sister-in-law Ruoshuang. What does he look like when he lives in your house?"

"Zhao Chen, there is an empty house next to my house. I have bought it. I want to give it to you. You and Uncle Fu live there. Even if you get married to Ruoshuang's sister-in-law, you can live there!
