Chapter nine hundred and eighty how to help him talk
The emperor now regrets a little.
When he first went out, he thought that he didn't have much private money, so he thought of giving all the expenses for this trip to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen agreed.
This did not surprise the emperor.
I originally thought that I had taken advantage of him, but I didn't expect that Zhao Chen was waiting for me here!
Thinking that he would be controlled by Zhao Chen in the next few days, he felt a little uncomfortable.
Zhao Chen wasn't having an easy time either.
He originally thought that today he would learn about the correspondence between Xue Wanche and Li Yuanji from Miss Xue's mouth.
But he didn't expect that when he just praised Miss Xue, the girl would leave directly.
Before leaving, the little maid even called herself a gangster.
I haven't asked about this matter yet, but the person left first.
Isn’t this day’s work in vain?
…
"Miss, why didn't you say anything along the way?" In the carriage, Xiaocui looked at his lady and asked in a low voice.
"Actually, Mr. Zhao probably didn't mean it, otherwise he wouldn't have said such frivolous words." Xiaocui felt again that her young lady was still complaining about the words Zhao Chen had just said to her.
Xiaocui thinks Zhao Chen is pretty good.
After all, if it weren't for Zhao Chen, they would have been fooled by the Dongshan Immortal today.
"Xiao Cui, what do you think of Zhao Chen?" Miss Xue and Xiao Cui asked.
"It's quite good. He's talented and good-looking. It's a pity that he's already married. Otherwise, he and the lady would be a good match." Xiao Cui said with a smile.
"That's nonsense." Miss Xue family spat.
"Miss, Xiaocui is not talking nonsense. There is no young man in Dingzhou City who can compare to Mr. Zhao."
"Just now, Mr. Zhao can tell at a glance that the Dongshan Immortal is trying to trick him."
"And what's even more powerful is that he even knows the tricks of Dongshan Immortal to deceive people."
"If I hadn't known that Mr. Zhao was from Chang'an and had no need to do things like defrauding people of money, I would have thought that the Dongshan Immortal was sent by him." Xiaocui said, with a gleam of admiration in his eyes.
At that time, I saw that nothing happened when I put my hand into the oil pan.
Xiaocui felt like she was dreaming.
Now that I think about it, I admire Zhao Chen's ability even more.
"Zhao Chen is indeed very powerful, but he is a person close to the emperor. Father and the emperor have never been very easy to deal with."
"I'm worried..." Miss Xue's face showed worry.
Over the years, she has long known the secrets her father kept.
Now that the emperor has come to Dingzhou City, it is probably because of that matter.
Zhao Chen must have the same intention.
Miss Xue's family didn't know whether the emperor came to kill people or what.
"Miss is worried that Mr. Zhao is here to help the emperor deal with the master's family?" Xiaocui asked.
Miss Xue didn't answer.
She admires Zhao Chen very much and hopes to be friends with him.
But if it involves his father's life...
"I think Mr. Zhao is not here to deal with the master's family. The master's family is loved by the people in Dingzhou City, even though he has a bad temper..." Xiao Cui said, seeing her young lady glaring at him, her voice also changed.
Get smaller.
"Xiao Cui, you have only known Mr. Zhao for a few days, why are you speaking for him and saying that my father has a bad temper?" Miss Xue's family was unhappy.
My father paid Xiao Cui a salary and took care of food and housing.
This girl is good, she starts talking to Zhao Chen now.
The elbows turned outward too quickly.
"I'm just telling the truth." Xiao Cui pursed her lips and said in a low voice.
…
"Dad, I should have met the emperor at Dongshan Immortal's Dharma gathering outside the city today." Miss Xue family said to Xue Wanche in the study room of Xue Mansion.
"Dongshan Immortal? Emperor?" Xue Wanche frowned and then smiled: "You have never seen the emperor, how can you say you have seen the emperor?"
Xue Wanche himself had not seen the emperor for more than ten years.
Although he knew that the emperor had arrived in Dingzhou this time, he had no idea of meeting him.
My own daughter has never met the emperor, how can she be so sure that she has met the emperor?
"Dad, listen to me..." Miss Xue family told Xue Wanche in detail what happened outside the city today.
After a while, Xue Wanche's brows knitted together tightly.
"Dad, I saw that man put his hand directly into the oil pan without even hesitating."
"Furthermore, with Zhao Chen's status in Chang'an, who else but the emperor himself would dare to call him Zhao Xiaozi?"
"Dad, it seems that the emperor is not as violent as the rumors say. In order to prevent the people from being deceived, he dared to risk his own life and put his hand into the oil pan." Miss Xue family and Xue Wanche said slowly.
Xue Wanche listened, with an uncertain expression on his face.
He always knew that the emperor was very kind to the people.
But the emperor's attitude towards his own brothers is not necessarily the same.
If the emperor knew Li Yuanji's whereabouts, no one knew what the final result would be.
"Girl, daddy knows what you mean, but you can't be careless about this. No one who can become emperor is a ruthless person."
"Don't go out if you have nothing to do recently. Wait until they leave Dingzhou." Xue Wanche ordered.
…
Zhao Chen didn't know what happened.
Anyway, he didn't see Miss Xue going out in the next few days.
Even the maid Xiaocui beside her disappeared.
Old Li Tou said that if there is no trace of Li Yuanji, don't even think about going back to Chang'an.
This guy Lao Litou may not be reliable in his words.
But when it comes to finding Li Yuanji, there is absolutely no ambiguity.
If he says he won't go back, then he definitely won't go back.
Zhao Chen can go back by himself, but leaving Lao Litou here is not a good idea.
"Sir, what's wrong with you these days? You don't think about food or tea. I heard from Luo Tong that you made Miss Xue's face red in the past few days."
"Are you interested in Miss Xue when you look like this?" Li Ke walked to Zhao Chen and said in a low voice.
He went to the emperor every day to report on the daily situation.
Of course you can ask something.
Zhao Chen was in a daze here, and the emperor kept talking about Zhao Chen being stingy and not letting him eat meat.
"Are you free?"
"The Governor of Dingzhou didn't invite you to the banquet today?"
"Your Highness, the King of Shu, has been intoxicated a lot recently. Do you remember to step out with one foot first when you go out?" Zhao Chen looked at Li Ke and said lightly.
"Hey, sir, if you ask me to step on that foot, I will step on that foot. Everything will be done according to sir's wishes," Li Ke replied.
But I didn’t dare to confront Zhao Chen.
Otherwise, given how unhappy this guy is now, he will definitely come to deal with him.
"Go and inquire about Miss Xue's family. If she leaves the Xue family, come back and tell me immediately!"
"Hehe, I understand, I understand!" Li Ke nodded.
With an "I know you" look on his face, Zhao Chen turned around and left the room without waiting for Zhao Chen to say anything else.
Soon, word spread among the students in the academy that Zhao Chen did not want to eat or drink because he missed Miss Xue.
