Chapter 145: Take Care of Him
Qin Huaiyu didn't know how he should tell Zhao Chen.
Many people dream of getting this opportunity, but Zhao Chen refused without hesitation.
And twice.
"Old Cheng, do you think Zhao Chen has a brain problem?" Qin Huaiyu looked at Zhao Chen's back and said to Cheng Chumo.
"Zhao Chen's behavior has always been different from us."
"But no matter what decision he makes, I will support him." Cheng Chumo said slowly, taking a step and following him.
"We don't need to go, someone will give it to you." Qin Huaiyu grabbed Cheng Chumo and said nodded to him.
Not far ahead, Li Ruoshuang led the foal to Zhao Chen.
...
"Guanyin Bi, you have heard about the affairs of the court today."
Li Shimin came here after he got off the court.
Li Shimin held the blank piece of paper with no handwriting in his arms. Even now, he still couldn't figure it out.
"I just heard the people below discussing it. That contract..."
"That's it." Li Shimin took out white paper from his arms and handed it to Empress Changsun.
"There is indeed no handwriting. Your Majesty is sure, is this really that contract?" Empress Changsun took it, looked carefully, and then asked softly.
White paper is rice paper used by the palace, and it is usually difficult for the people to buy this paper.
This means that this rice paper was really given to Zhao Chen by myself.
That means...
"It's indeed this one, but for some reason, the handwriting on this paper was gone at all, and I really don't understand it." Li Shimin frowned.
"That's strange. I have never heard of such a method that can actually make all the handwriting left behind disappear. Did that child Zhao Chen tell His Majesty nothing?" Empress Changsun asked curiously.
According to her guess, this matter must have been done by Zhao Chen.
It is impossible for Zhao Chen to not disclose any news to the emperor.
"Zhao Chen only told me that if he saw the contract and gave money, he would not say anything else. I think this contract is his trick."
"I just can't figure out what method can do without leaving any trace." Li Shimin shook his head, with a hint of confusion on his face.
"Then why don't your Majesty ask him personally...cough...cough..." Queen Changsun said, and then started coughing.
After the rain, the sky was clear, and Queen Changsun's condition seemed to be repeated.
"Is Guanyin maid okay?" Li Shimin was a little worried when he heard Empress Changsun coughing.
"I have nothing to do. Since your Majesty is curious, why not go to the tavern and ask, and ask by the way, what day will the autumn harvest in Wannian County be."
"I have been looking forward to it." Empress Changsun shook her head, looked at Li Shimin with a smile, endured the fishy smell in her mouth, and said with a smile.
"Zhao Chen told me about this. I think it will be shortly after that, Guanyin maid is so concerned, so I will ask about it again." Li Shimin nodded and stood up.
He was thinking about asking Zhao Chen about the contract, so it was just right.
"Your Majesty, Zhao Chen offended several families of the five surnames and seven hopes this time. He may be revenge. Your Majesty must protect him." Empress Changsun stood up and looked at Li Shimin.
"Well, I know." Li Shimin nodded and turned away from the Lizheng Hall.
"Cough...cough cough..." A violent cough came from the Lizheng Hall.
...
"Zhao Chen, you really should have agreed to my mother just now."
Zhao Chen rode on the horse, and Li Ruoshuang led the foal for Zhao Chen.
Suddenly Li Ruoshuang stopped and looked at Zhao Chen.
"Miss Ruoshuang, you know, I am not in the army, General Li loves you, Zhao Chen is grateful in his heart, but..."
"Today, news came from the court that the five surnames and seven hoped several grain merchants went to the Taiji Hall to ask His Majesty for food, but in the end they didn't know what happened, and the contract was gone."
"The five surnames Qi Wang didn't get a penny. You made so much money, and you were just a tavern owner. They will definitely deal with you." Li Ruoshuang interrupted Zhao Chen and looked at Zhao Chen with concern.
Zhao Chen made more than 100,000 yuan this time.
And it was taken out from the pocket of the Wushou Qiwang.
Li Ruoshuang didn't believe that the people of the five surnames and seven hopes would really watch Zhao Chen take such a big advantage.
But Zhao Chen is just a shopkeeper of a tavern.
Even if the emperor and the queen valued it, they were really willing to go and have a complete rupture with the five surnames and Qi Wang for Zhao Chen?
Zhao Chen refused the invitation to accept a disciple again. Wouldn't this force himself to death?
"Miss Ruoshuang, in five days, the grain in Wannian County will have a bumper harvest. Why don't you go there together?" Zhao Chen smiled and asked.
"I must go, but..."
"Okay, I'll wait for you." Zhao Chen nodded and looked forward.
...
When Zhao Chen returned to the tavern, he happened to meet Li Shimin who had just arrived on the road.
Wei Zheng was also walking with Li Shimin.
Li Ruoshuang said goodbye to Zhao Chen on the street near the tavern.
Several people did not meet.
"Zhao Chen, are you just coming back?" Li Shimin looked at Zhao Chen with his hands behind his back.
If it weren't for Zhao Chen, the heavy rain in Chang'an City this month would probably have caused him a lot of trouble.
There is also the Earth Dragon in Jinyang that turned over. If it weren't for Zhao Chen, Li Shimin would probably be criticized by those who are interested.
At this moment, Li Shimin was even more satisfied with Zhao Chen.
On the way here, Li Shimin even thought that he should seize the opportunity to reveal his identity to Zhao Chen.
Even if you don’t reveal your relationship with Zhao Chen, you should let Zhao Chen know his identity as Li Shimin.
If Zhao Chen has the ability, he will definitely be the wise ruler of the Tang Dynasty in the future.
But if you are in the market for a long time, your wings will never be rich.
"Oh, I just went to the Duke of Wei's Mansion." Zhao Chen nodded, explained, and entered the tavern.
"Your Majesty, I heard that Zhao Chen made a lot of money this time, mine..." Wei Zheng rubbed his hands slightly awkwardly.
He also heard what the ministers in the court said.
I know that Zhao Chen made a lot of money this time, can he get the two thousand guan he had left with Zhao Chen before?
Fang Xuanling asked him several times when Wei Zheng would invite him to dinner.
"Aren't you unwilling to do it at the beginning?" Li Shimin glanced at Wei Zheng and said lightly.
"Hehe, haven't I followed His Majesty's will?"
"But even your Majesty, didn't you believe Zhao Chen at the beginning?"
"It's amazing to think about it. Zhao Chen actually knew that the skyrocketing grain prices in Chang'an City were really unimaginable." Wei Zheng said slowly, sighing softly.
Before the grain prices soared, he always thought that Zhao Chen had a loss.
But who knows that it is really as Zhao Chen said.
"Hmph, I just heard the news and said that Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu, one of whom, returned home with Jin Yezi worth ten thousand yuan."
"Zhijie and Shubao both laughed and laughed." Li Shimin snorted coldly, feeling a little dissatisfied.
He thought that Zhao Chen had made money, but he didn't even say anything to him.
But 80,000 yuan was owned by him, Li Shimin.
