Chapter 143: That, we are also there

"Xiangrui?"

"Your Majesty, it rained heavily in Chang'an City for a month, and the autumn harvest day, how can it be said to be auspicious?"

"Your Majesty and your ministers are together. This auspiciousness is happening in Chang'an City of the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Shimin's words aroused curiosity among the ministers.

But there was no explanation from Li Shimin.

… ??

Suzaku Street.

Zhao Chen walked slowly, followed by Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu on the left and right.

"Brother, why don't you change into better clothes?"

"Yeah, even though it's not my first time here, you still have to pay attention to your image!"

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu each held a box and turned their heads to talk to Zhao Chen.

"What's wrong with my clothes?" Zhao Chen smiled, spread his arms and spun around twice.

I didn't notice anything wrong with my clothes.

This clothes was given to him by his aunt.

"The material of the clothes is good, but with this needlework skills..." Cheng Chumo muttered and pointed to the stitches of Zhao Chen's clothes.

"This is the clothes my aunt sewed for me. It's even more important to wear this." Zhao Chen smiled and continued to move forward.

Zhao Chen felt weak and walked for almost half an hour before he stopped outside the Duke Wei's mansion.

When the boy at the door saw Zhao Chen, he thought of the entanglement between Zhao Chen and Li Ruoshuang at the Weiguo Palace last time.

Next to him were two young masters of the prince.

How can you dare to neglect at this moment?

He quickly went in to report to Hongfu Nu.

"Brother, you said General Li would be frightened if we brought so many gold leaves today." Cheng Chumo patted the box in his arms and said with a smile to Zhao Chen.

Today the three of them came to the Duke of Wei's Mansion to return the five thousand guan they borrowed from Li Ruoshuang last time.

There are also five thousand strings as reward.

A total of 10,000 yuan is to fulfill the bet made with Hong Fu Nu one month ago.

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu are not the same

Know this.

They only thought that Zhao Chen came here to return Li Ruoshuang's favor.

"General Li has never seen anything before. It's only ten thousand guan. At most, he's just surprised." Zhao Chen smiled and said casually.

"Hey, brother, how about you take advantage of today to have a showdown with General Li." Qin Huaiyu said with a smile.

"What cards are you showing?" Zhao Chen turned around and glanced at Qin Huaiyu in confusion.

"Propose to General Li." Qin Huaiyu said smoothly.

"What?"

"Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Li Ruoshuang likes you very much. Li Ruoshuang is the only daughter of General Li's family. General Li is usually the treasure in the palm of his hand."

"If you propose marriage, Li Ruoshuang will definitely be happy, and General Li will not make his daughter sad. This marriage will definitely happen."

"If you marry Li Ruoshuang, you will become a member of the Weiguo family in the future." Qin Huaiyu said to Zhao Chen softly.

Cheng Chumo also nodded.

They all know that Li Ruoshuang treats Zhao Chen completely differently from others.

If she didn't fall in love with Zhao Chen, which woman would be willing to use her dowry to support Zhao Chen?

Zhao Chen frowned slightly and said nothing.

"Brother, if it's difficult for you to speak, I can ask our old man to speak for you."

"You have to know that all civil and military officials in the dynasty, including the prince and the king of Wei, also want to get General Li's help. If you..."

Cheng Chumo wanted to continue, but Zhao Chen waved his hand to stop him.

"Miss Ruoshuang is here." Zhao Chen said lightly.

"But..." Cheng Chumo was about to say more when he saw the door of Duke Wei's Mansion opened in front of him, and Li Ruoshuang ran out with a smile on his face.

…

"Madam, that boy Zhao Chen is here." In the study, Li Jing looked at Hongfu Girl and said slowly

.

Hongfu Girl's face darkened slightly, and a trace of surprise flashed across her face, and she muttered, "What does he have to do with me?"

"There was a heavy rain in Chang'an City in January, and the price of food soared. A few days ago, news came that Zhao Chen sold 700,000 shi of food to Qi Wang of the fifth surname at a price of fifteen cents per bucket."

"I'm afraid the money that boy Zhao Chen made this time is really enviable." Li Jing looked at Hongfu Nu with a smile.

Although Li Jing didn't go out, he paid special attention to Li Ruoshuang's movements.

I was afraid that Li Ruoshuang would be harmed.

Li Jing naturally knew about Zhao Chen selling grain.

"So what? Even if he makes money, so what?"

"Is it possible that he still dares to humiliate me?" Hongfu Nu snorted coldly, but a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.

She really didn't expect why Zhao Chen was so sure that the price of food in Chang'an City would rise.

Moreover, he actually dared to put his hand into Qi Wang’s money bag?

"In my opinion, although that boy Zhao Chen has some abilities, he doesn't know how to restrain himself when doing things."

"Although Zheng He has been captured, the Zheng family dare not move for the time being, but the other families, they will not take action against Zhao Chen?"

"That's two hundred thousand silver coins, which is enough for them to kill Zhao Chen." Hongfu Nu continued, but her words were extremely unkind.

"Master, madam, the young lady has invited Zhao Chen into the living room, accompanied by the young masters of Duke Yi and Duke Lu." The voice of the servant came from outside the study.

"I understand, please step back!" Hongfu Nu said calmly.

"Madam, please go and entertain me. I'm paralyzed right now." Li Jing said to Hong Fu Nu with a smile.

"Aren't you afraid that I will fall out with that Zhao Chen?" Hong Fu Nu glared at Li Jing.

"Madam, you can make your own decision on this matter." Li Jing smiled and concentrated on the book in his hand.

Hong Funu glared at Li Jing again angrily and left the study.

.

…

"Zhao Chen, why are you here today?"

"Why don't you tell me in advance so I can send a car to pick you up!"

In the lobby of Duke Wei's mansion, Li Ruoshuang looked at Zhao Chen with joy on her face.

After all the food was sold, she returned to the Duke's Mansion.

I haven't seen Zhao Chen for some days, but when I saw him suddenly, I couldn't help but feel a little happy.

Next to them, Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu looked at each other.

They both noticed the embarrassment in each other's eyes.

They were sitting here, and Li Ruoshuang didn't seem to see them at all.

"That sister-in-law, we are also here..." Cheng Chumo reminded her.

"Ahem..."

"You two are here too. You can pour the tea yourself!" Li Ruoshuang glanced at the two of them, nodded, and then looked at Zhao Chen.

But it was obvious that Li Ruoshuang was very satisfied with Cheng Chumo's title.

Zhao Chen glanced at Cheng Chumo and saw that he was giving him a proud look, and he didn't know what he was feeling.

"Miss Ruoshuang, I came here today to pay you back." Zhao Chen waved to Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaiyu.

"It's not urgent." Li Ruoshuang looked at Zhao Chen and said, "You ask them to deliver it, or let me know and I will go and get it myself."

"You are not in good health, how could you walk such a long way..."

"When Miss Ruoshuang was willing to lend me five thousand strings, Zhao Chen was extremely grateful. How could he let Miss Ruoshuang go there in person?"

"Besides, these roads are just for physical exercise." Zhao Chen said with a smile.

He always kept a distance from Li Ruoshuang.

After hearing this, a trace of loneliness flashed across Li Ruoshuang's face, and she opened her mouth, but she still didn't know how to speak.

"Zhao Chen, are you here again today?" Hongfu Nu came out of the back hall and sat down aside.
