Kidnapped by Princess Changle at the beginning

Li Er briefly said, and added: "Chen Chu, a wild boy, dare not take me seriously, I will definitely kill him!"

Empress Changsun heard the words and left without saying a word.

Just when Li Er looked puzzled, he saw Empress Changsun came back, dressed in splendid attire, phoenix crown and Xiapei, extremely dazzling.

Li Er was stunned, and asked, "Guanyin maidservant, what are you?"

Empress Changsun said with a gentle face, "Second brother, I am congratulating you."

"Where did He come from?"

Empress Changsun said: "Second elder brother, I have heard that if you follow the example, the ruler is virtuous and the minister is wise, the monarch is wise, and the subjects are also wise. Although Chen Chu is not a courtier, he can solve the problem of the shortage of the internal treasury for the second elder brother. A great talent may not be a hermit. In troubled times, or when the emperor is in power, such a talented person would hide from the world. Now, the appearance of Chen Chu is just a sign that my Tang Dynasty is becoming stronger... Besides, then Chen Chu still doesn't know the identity of the second brother. The reason he quarreled with the second brother was not to despise the imperial power, but to insist on his own way. This just shows that it is the second brother's integrity that influenced him... All signs show that this Chen Chu It’s just a man of insight, a man like this can become the second brother’s right-hand man and the pillar of the Great Tang in the future, why don’t I congratulate you.”

She was right.

But there is only one central idea: Chen Chu is right to scold you.

Li Er frowned, pondered for a while, raised his head, and said, "Guanyin maidservant, according to what you said, not only can I not kill him, but I want to use him again?"

Empress Changsun nodded: "It would be a pity to kill such a talented person. I have been thinking about the pre-sale for the past few days, and the more I think about it, the more confused I feel. Since Chen Chu proposed it, why not let the second brother boldly let him go?" Why do you have to suspect him again?"

At this point, Li Er's anger has gradually dissipated.

Empress Changsun's words reached his heart.

However, whenever he recalled the scene of Chen Chu swearing, he felt a headache.

That kid is so daring!

He thought for a while and said coldly: "Hmph, okay, since you are the Guanyin maidservant pleading for him, then I will let him go for the time being. This soap is pre-sale, if he succeeds, I will spare him from death, if he fails , I will tear him to pieces!"

Empress Changsun knew Li Er's temper very well, and when she saw this, she knew that her anger had dissipated, so she asked with a smile: "Second elder brother told me last time that Li Zhi has grown up, but half a month has passed, why not Bring Lizhi back?"

Li Er paused, and said, "Maid Guanyin, don't worry, Lizhi is fine now, and she will definitely be back within two months."

Empress Changsun nodded.

Li Er secretly calculated.

According to Chen Chu, the potatoes that yield a thousand catties per mu will be harvested in more than a month.

When the time comes, you will know the truth at a glance.

Before that, Li Lizhi had to stay in Qingfengzhai to stabilize Chen Chu.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

So he summoned Cheng Chumo overnight, and solemnly ordered: "Chumo, send more people to keep an eye on the eldest princess and Chen Chu, and never allow them to have any more contact."

Cheng Chumo solemnly agreed: "Yes, Your Majesty, I must send more people to handle this matter well."

Only then did Li Er feel relieved.

Cheng Chumo left the palace, thinking about Li Er's orders all the way, but he was a little entangled.

He was a little confused.

On one side was His Majesty's order to prohibit Chen Chu from contacting the eldest princess.

On one side is a good brother, who hangs out with the eldest princess every two days, the two are like glue, like a family.

The current situation is that Chen Chu doesn't know the identity of His Majesty.

And His Majesty didn't know about Chen Chu and the eldest princess.

He was caught in the middle, in a dilemma.

He returned to Duke Lu's mansion with a heavy heart.

As soon as he entered, he was pulled aside by Cheng Yaojin.

Cheng Yaojin's face was full of joy.

Cheng Chumo asked curiously: "Father, what's going on in the house today?"

Cheng Yaojin said: "I just came back from Qingfengzhai, my second brother asked me to go again tomorrow, and said that there was a way to get rich, so I got a bottle of spirits from him. Now, Then Chang'an Da Da Da Da Da Da Restaurant is making money every day, Dad is so happy, why don't we two have a drink?"

Cheng Chu thought about it for a while, this is indeed something worth celebrating.

So he nodded in agreement.

The father and son began to drink to each other under the moon.

Before I knew it, I was so drunk.

The next morning.

After the two got up, they met in the yard.

Cheng Yaojin was full of joy, and suddenly asked: "Son, Your Majesty called you into the palace last night, but what are your orders?"

Cheng Chumo opened his mouth, but his mind was blank.

Then he scratched his head and said, "Father, Your Majesty doesn't seem to have ordered anything..."

Cheng Yaojin said: "Since that's the case, then you and I will go to look for the second brother. Whether your father and I can make a fortune depends on the advice of the second brother."

"it is good!"

Cheng Chumo followed Cheng Yaojin and hurried to Qingfengzhai.

As for Li Er's order last night, he had already thrown it out of the blue.

Of course, this was not the first time he had let go, otherwise Chen Chu and Li Lizhi would not have developed so fast.

……

At the foot of Qingfengzhai Mountain.

Soap factory.

yard.

thump.

A heavy sack fell to the ground.

Cheng Yaojin took off his shirt, revealing his fat body, he laughed, his stomach trembling up and down: "Second brother, this cow was hanged to death, I will give it to you."

Chen Chu: "..."

Old Cheng is still very reliable.

Every time I come, I will never come empty-handed!

Unlike Lao Li, who is too stingy.

After Cheng Yaojin sat down, he asked: "Second brother, you asked me to come here today, saying that you showed me a way to get rich, are you kidding me?"

Chen Chu waved his hand and said, "Brother, when did I lie to you? I heard that you have a batch of soap in your hand. Is it true?"

Cheng Yaojin nodded: "Of course it is true, I still have 500 yuan of soap."

He bought 1000 yuan soap for [-] guan, but quickly squandered half of it.

Chen Chu asked, "What's the current market price of soap?"

Cheng Chumo said from the side: "It's already reached [-] yuan, but no one is selling it."

Cheng Yaojin nodded: "My 500 yuan, I have to ask someone to watch it for twelve hours, and I can't bear to use it anymore."

Chen Chu pondered: "Brother, sell all the 500 yuan soap."

sold?

all?

Cheng Yaojin's eyes widened.

Cheng Chumo was also stunned.

……

Chapter 38 What You Say Is Right

Cheng Yaojin couldn't help it first, and asked: "Second brother, don't hurt me, the soap is now five hundred guan, and I'm afraid it will cost a thousand guan in the future, and I am also a person with status and status in Chang'an City. If you don't have a few bars of soap at home, how can you live..."

In Chang'an City, soap has become a symbol of identity and status.

Chen Chu rolled her eyes: "Aren't you the housekeeper of Lao Li's family? You're just an official, with green onions in the pig's nose, pretending to be an elephant."

Cheng Yaojin breathed out: "I am a housekeeper, different from others!"

There is no such a well-known butler in the world.

However, Li Er had ordered him not to reveal his identity.

Chen Chu waved his hand and said, "Brother, I can tell you with certainty that after ten days, the price of soap will get lower and lower. .”

"What? How is it possible?" Cheng Yaojin didn't believe it.

Chen Chu stopped talking.

He just pointed out a way to get rich for the sake of old Cheng Zhiyi.

As for whether he can catch it, it's up to Lao Cheng himself.

Seeing Cheng Yaojin hesitate, Cheng Chumo whispered beside him: "Father, I think we should listen to Brother Chen Chu, he won't lie to us."

Cheng Yaojin thought for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, just listen to your second uncle."

Cheng Chumo: "..."

Cheng Yaojin looked at Chen Chu and asked, "Second brother, what should we do?"

Chen Chu said: "Go back now, sell all the soap in your hand before dark today, but there is one thing, you have to sell quickly..."

Before the words fell, there were footsteps at the door.

A figure walked in.

Several people turned their heads to see that it was Li Er.

Li Er was carrying a sack.

thump.

He threw the sack on the ground, and said out of breath, "Chen Chu, this cow in my house has been hanged, and I can't finish it at home, so I'll just give it to you."

After finishing speaking, he saw Chen Chu and the other three staring at him strangely.

Li Er touched his face, "What, is there a flower on my face?"

Cheng Chumo stepped forward in embarrassment, and said in a low voice, "Shopkeeper, my father also sent beef just now, and that cow was also hanged..."

Li Er: "..."

He had mixed feelings in his heart.

After hearing Empress Changsun's persuasion, he thought it over and felt that the reason why Chen Chu scolded people was because he didn't trust Chen Chu in the first place.

So he decided to be a generous emperor.

Find someone to quietly kill a cow and give it to Chen Chu, even if the barrier between the two is eliminated.

Who knew, there was a conflict in sending beef.

Li Er is so embarrassing.

He gave Cheng Yaojin a hard look.

Cheng Yaojin rolled his eyes, quickly grabbed his bag, and said to Chen Chu: "Second brother, I remembered wrongly, my cow was hanged yesterday, and it already stinks. It was hanged today, it is very tender, eat this..."

However, Chen Chu waved his hand: "Since it's here, keep it here, Lao Li, are you here to make amends?"

Li Erji nodded reluctantly.

This kid is good at everything, but he is too direct.

I am the emperor!

Why don't you lose face?

Chen Chu asked again: "So, are you aware of your mistake?"

Li Er: "..."
