Chapter 176 What benefits can you give me?

"Your Majesty, Zhao Chen is in the tavern."

Beside the carriage, Wei Zheng and Li Shimin whispered.

"What is that kid doing?" Li Shimin's voice came out without opening the curtain.

"Just stand there and watch... No, Your Majesty, he wants to close the door..."

"Quick, stop him for me." Li Shimin's voice suddenly came from the carriage.

Wei Zheng's face tightened and he rushed over in a few steps.

Fortunately, Wei Zheng was young and strong, and at the moment when the door of the tavern was about to close, he put one foot into the tavern.

"Wow - it hit my leg." With a scream, Wei Zheng's face turned blue.

His right foot reached into the tavern and was crushed by two doors.

Wei Zheng felt that his legs must be green. ??

"The tavern is closed, please come back." Zhao Chen's voice came from inside.

"Mr. Zhao, first... open the door first, my leg is going to be broken." Wei Zheng patted the door, his face turned dark.

He felt that he must not have burned incense when he went out today.

Otherwise, he would not have been met by the emperor on the road.

If he had not been encountered by the emperor, this incident of the gate pinching his leg would not have happened to him.

Wei Zheng felt that his legs were about to break.

"Mr. Zhao, tell His Majesty the Emperor if there is any misunderstanding. I am innocent. I don't know anything."

"Please let go of the door, it's really going to break." Wei Zheng shouted in pain outside, but he didn't know that the emperor and Empress Changsun were already standing behind him at this moment.

"Zhao Chen, open the door, someone is here to apologize to you." Li Shimin stood at the door and shouted inside.

There was no sound in the tavern, only Wei Zheng's grinning could be heard next to him.

"Zhao Chen, in the past, I admitted that I had selfish motives, but I had no intention of hurting you."

"Zhao Chen, please open the door first. If anything happens, Auntie... I'll tell you face to face." Empress Changsun looked a little disappointed and whispered to the inside.

Rush outside the door

When the eunuch driving the carriage saw the scene in front of him, his eyes almost fell out.

Secretly, who is it that dares to shut the emperor and empress out of the door, with the admonishing doctor's legs trapped in the door.

Even the late Emperor didn't have such a great reputation.

"Ey-"

"Oh, my legs."

When the door opened, Wei Zheng sat on the ground holding his legs.

Li Shimin and Queen Changsun walked into the tavern and saw a familiar scene in front of them, but they no longer knew what it felt like.

Zhao Chen sat on the stool and looked at the cup in his hand calmly.

Li Ruoshuang saluted the two of them and stood beside Zhao Chen.

"Old Wei, come in and close the door." Li Shimin shouted to Wei Zheng outside the door.

Wei Zheng jumped in with shoes in his hand and closed the door of the tavern.

"Zhao Chen, I..."

"This is a tavern, just eat and don't talk about anything else." Before Empress Changsun could finish her words, she was interrupted by Zhao Chen.

"We just came here to eat." Li Shimin was a little angry.

"The tavern is closed today, please go elsewhere for dinner." Zhao Chen said without raising his head.

"You!" Li Shimin looked annoyed and pointed at Zhao Chen, his eyes spitting fire.

"Why, after saying a few words like this, His Majesty the Emperor is dissatisfied?" Zhao Chen raised his head and sneered.

Li Shimin could bear it when others said it.

But what is the relationship between Zhao Chen and himself?

As an emperor and a father, how could Li Shimin not be angry when Zhao Chen said this.

"Zhao Chen, I came here today. I actually need your help with something." Empress Changsun grabbed Li Shimin, who was about to become furious, and sat down in front of Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen looked at Queen Changsun tenderly.

Looking at her eyes, I didn’t know what to feel in my heart for a moment.

He put down the cup in his hand and glanced to the side.

"I'm just a tavern keeper, I don't have any skills..."

"No, in my heart, you are the most powerful." Queen Changsun looked at Zhao Chen and said softly.

Zhao Chen didn't speak, just looked at the table in front of him.

"Zhao Chen, what happened before was because we couldn't help you. It's natural that you don't want to see us."

"Lao Litou and I apologize to you for this matter." ??

Queen Changsun stood up and took two steps back. Li Shimin came over. Although his face was full of reluctance, he followed Queen Changsun and held his hand towards Zhao Chen.

"What are you doing? Do you think I can forgive you?"

Zhao Chen stepped aside and did not face the two of them.

However, the tone was not as contradictory as before.

"No matter what your status is, if you do something wrong, you will be punished." Queen Changsun walked to Zhao Chen and took Zhao Chen's hand.

Zhao Chen subconsciously refused, but Queen Changsun grabbed her tightly.

Zhao Chen was pulled to sit down next to Queen Changsun.

"Four days have passed, and the lost bag of seeds has not been found yet. This matter is of great importance, so we want to ask you if there is anything you can do." Empress Changsun took Zhao Chen's hand and asked softly. road.

"What can I do?" Zhao Chen felt a little awkward, but he was not as angry as before.

"It's okay. Just think about it slowly. I'll make you something to eat. Ruoshuang, you go with me." Empress Changsun said softly.

Waved to Li Ruoshuang, the two of them went to the kitchen.

Only Zhao Chen and three people were left in the tavern.

Wei Zheng sat on a stool nearby and groaned. Li Shimin stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to say.

Li Shimin felt that Queen Changsun was indeed his

Good wife.

Zhao Chen, who was as stubborn as herself, was actually able to be persuaded by her.

"Um..." Li Shimin looked at Zhao Chen, and for a moment he didn't know where to start.

"Are you feeling well now? I heard Divine Doctor Sun say..."

"I can't die." Before Li Shimin could finish speaking, Zhao Chen choked on his words.

Wei Zheng stopped moaning.

If they talk like this, they will definitely quarrel later.

Wei Zheng even admired Zhao Chen.

Even Wei Zheng did not dare to confront the emperor like this.

Otherwise, the emperor would have killed him long ago.

This kid Zhao Chen is really capable. The emperor didn't even dare to raise his head when he said these words.

"Tell me about the food situation." Zhao Chen waved his hand and asked Li Shimin to talk about the situation these days.

"Old Wei, tell me." Li Shimin waved to Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng jumped over and sat down on the side. He said, "Since we discovered that the Turks were killed, we have sent people to various checkpoints and arteries, but nothing has been found."

"According to our speculation, those people must have entered Chang'an City, but there are hundreds of thousands of people in Chang'an City, so it is impossible to find them."

"This matter has been put on hold."

After Wei Zheng finished speaking, he sighed.

The auspicious seeds are related to the fate of the Tang Dynasty. If they are lost like this, it will undoubtedly have a huge impact.

"Have you checked the identities of those Turks?" Zhao Chen asked.

"After checking, the fake identity is useless." Li Shimin said in a deep voice.

"Zhao Chen, is there any way you can find out about this matter?" Li Shimin asked again, looking at Zhao Chen with a hint of expectation.

"Then what benefit can you give me?" Zhao Chen looked at Li Shimin and said lightly.

"What?" Li Shimin didn't react for a moment.
