On the morning of the next day, Zhao Chen went to Lizheng Hall.

Also walking with him is Li Zhi.

Li Zhi didn't speak all the way, and he was much silent than before.

Perhaps he never likes to talk in front of Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen had nothing to say to Li Zhi. The two rode on their respective horses, and did not communicate, and walked all the way to the gate of Chang'an City.

"Brother, do you think Xiaowu will get used to it in Gaochang?" Li Zhi's sudden sentence made Zhao Chen not know how to answer.

Wu Zi was in Gaochang, so he definitely did not have the habit of being in Chang'an.

The unfamiliar place there is, she is a girl who faces everything strange.

Zhao Chen had no choice but to answer Li Zhi.

But he had to warn Li Zhi: "Zhi Nu, how Wu Zi is outside has nothing to do with you."

"You should do your own thing."

After hearing this, Li Zhiting tied the reins and looked at Zhao Chen with anger: "When was the emperor brother so ruthless? Xiao Wu wasn't it because of you and me that she went to Gaochang!"

"Now the emperor is not worried about it at all?"

"What's the use of worrying about? If you miss her, she will come back from Gaochang?"

"When you don't have the ability to do things, you should keep your thoughts in your heart, rather than telling others everywhere."

"Do you think you're infatuated?"

"In my opinion, you are just being self-righteous and hiding your thoughts, at least, in front of me."

"Otherwise, I will deal with you!" Zhao Chen spoke, his tone a little cold.

Li Zhi was already scared of Zhao Chen from the bottom of his heart.

It was because of Wu Xi that he dared to speak out today. Now that Zhao Chen yelled like this, he was even more scared.

Fortunately, I grew up a lot in the academy and didn’t cry like I used to.

Li Zhi didn't say anything, but Zhao Chen reminded again: "I'll go to Lizheng Hall later. You are not allowed to mention Wu Zi anymore. Just follow your mother's words and agree."

"The same thing, time is up, I will take you to pick up Wu Zi back."

"But if you are ungrateful, don't blame me for being polite."

Li Zhi was so scolded that he dared not look up. He heard Zhao Chen reiterate his previous promises with him again.

This made Li Zhi feel much more relieved.

Nodded, and followed Zhao Chen with tears in his eyes.

...

In the Lizheng Hall, Empress Changsun asked someone to prepare some delicious dishes.

I went to Shangshi Bureau myself and got a few dishes that Zhao Chen and Li Zhi liked.

Then he stood outside the Lizheng Hall and looked forward to the two of them.

"Empress, the sun is poisonous outside, why don't you come in and wait."

"The King of Han and King of Jin will arrive soon." Some attendants and Empress Changsun persuaded.

It's still summer now, and it's noon again, so it's inevitable that it's hot outside.

"It's okay, I'm not relieved if I don't see them coming."

"You go and prepare sour plum soup for me and add more ice."

"I'll relieve the heat from them later." Empress Changsun said to the servant beside her.

The attendant nodded, trying to persuade Empress Changsun to enter the palace to wait, but when she saw her appearance, she still said nothing.

Fortunately, it took a while.

Zhao Chen and Li Zhi appeared in the square outside Lizheng Hall, and Queen Changsun showed joy.

Then he walked down the steps and greeted the two of them.

Zhao Chen also saw Empress Changsun quickly walking towards him from a distance.

At first, Zhao Chen thought that Empress Changsun had something urgent, so he was so anxious.

but……

"It's noon, both of you children are so hot. Come in with your mother and ask someone to prepare sour plum soup for you." Empress Changsun pulled someone with one hand and walked towards the steps.

Looking at the sweat on Queen Changsun's face, Zhao Chen felt very uncomfortable for a moment.

Let Queen Changsun pull herself into it.

The attendant brought sour plum soup and said, "Your Highness, the Queen of Han, I saw that you had never come, but I stood outside the hall and waited for a long time."

"Fortunately, you are here, otherwise the sun will be so big..."

The attendant was obviously defending Empress Changsun.

Zhao Chen took a sip of sour plum soup and felt his throat felt very comfortable.

He put down the jade bowl and said, "The queen of mother must not do this in the future. She will definitely not break her promises if she promised."

Zhao Chen's voice was not loud, but to Queen Changsun, it was like beating a drum.

It's been so long that this is the first time that Zhao Chen calls her mother and calls himself a son minister.

Queen Changsun only felt like she was dreaming.

The joy in my heart turned into hot tears and burst out from my eyes.

The moment the eye sockets overflowed, Queen Changsun turned her head.

The voice was a little choked: "You drink more, and the queen mother will go and change her clothes."

After saying that, he entered the inner hall without waiting for the two of them to speak.

When Zhao Chen saw Empress Changsun like this, he knew why.

This heart couldn't help but sigh.

However, Li Zhi was drinking the sour plum soup in the bowl with peace of mind. He knew what had just happened.

But he didn't care much about this.

He, Li Zhi, also called Brother Zhao Chen!

The emperor also came soon. Seeing that Empress Changsun was gone, he poured a cup of sour plum soup and drank it. He looked at the two people in front of him.

"Zhi Nu, I went to Chang'an Military Academy for a few months and looked much more energetic than before."

"Yes, keep working hard!" the emperor said with a smile.

He was very satisfied with Li Zhi's current appearance.

Although he is young, he looks capable.

"Thank you for your praise, my son will continue to work hard." Li Zhi nodded with a smile on his face.

Only fools will not feel happy if they are praised by the emperor.

Seeing Li Zhi nodding, the emperor was also happy and looked at Zhao Chen again.

Yesterday, the Imperial College quota was auctioned, and he still didn't know the specific money.

"Zhao...Boy Chen." The emperor wanted to call him Zhao, but changed his words to call him Chen.

What is his relationship with Li Shimin and Zhao Chen?

How can one have the surname Li and the other have the surname Zhao?

Even if Zhao Chen doesn't call him father, he, as a father, can't he still call him Xiaozi Zhao, right?

You have to call him Boy Chen to get closer!

"Boy Chen, tell me how much the total price was sold at yesterday's auction." The emperor and Zhao Chen asked.

Li Zhi also looked at Zhao Chen.

To be honest, Li Zhi has never seen a situation as crazy as yesterday.

Thousands of people were competing for quotas, and they almost didn't fight.

Li Zhi remembered that when Li Ke and the others were calculating money, their mouths were always open.

"Not much, only one and two million yuan." Zhao Chen said casually.

"One and two million coins?" The emperor's voice suddenly increased.

Two hundred places. One million jin of silver coins were sold.

The emperor really didn't expect it.

The only thing he thought of now was that he had money.

"Yes, except for some miscellaneous expenses, the surplus is 1.2 million yuan."

"Give each Dali Temple official a thousand guan, and there are still 1.1 million guan of silver left." Zhao Chen and the emperor said.

There are 100 officials in Dali Temple, one thousand guan, which is 100,000 guan.

This money is the tutor they teach students. Although it is not much, it is definitely not a lot.

At the beginning, Zhao Chen planned to let all the students enter the school and then hand over part of the tuition to the officials of Dali Temple as Shu Xiu.

Now that this division is divided, Dali Temple officials have made more profits.

"One hundred thousand coins, although it's a bit too much, I can accept it."
