Chapter 154: Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills
Mr. Hanxi smiled and took the lead in looking at it, and reproached: "Why don't you know etiquette when you see the emperor?" ”
Shen Tingge hurriedly knelt down to say goodbye, and Shen Tingzhuo also knelt down.
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. You're a disciple for fear of messing up the situation, aren't you? Come here, let me take a good look at my sir's closed disciple! ”
Shen Tingge got up and walked to Mr. Hanxi's side, and let the emperor look at him generously.
After the eyes flashed slightly, it was already empty and pure curiosity.
"Yes, this charm is much stronger than a few princesses in the palace. Not to mention the appearance, no wonder my eldest sister wanted to ask for it, and now my prince also asks for me. ”
Shen Tingge didn't answer, just looked at the emperor blankly, as if waiting for the emperor to continue.
The emperor frowned slightly, raised his forehead and sighed: "It doesn't hurt to return to my eldest sister, you are the concubine of Shen Lao, and you will not be a concubine of the prince." But my second prince, Prince Xuan, can agree. Girl, what do you say? ”
Shen Tingge hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "A courtier and a merchant girl are really not worthy of Prince Xuan." ”
The emperor smiled and said: "Your father is a household servant, and your foreign family is a general's family, why did you become a merchant girl?" ”
Shen Qingge bit his lower lip, looked at his husband cautiously, and asked with a small face, "Your Majesty, can the courtiers tell the truth?" ”
"Hahahaha...... Sir, look at your apprentice, do you think that I only like to listen to lies and not to listen to the truth? ”
Shen Tingge immediately replied: "The emperor is powerful all over the world, Ze is the world, and he is the Ming monarch admired by the courtiers. It's just that when the courtiers first saw the holy ceremony, they were inevitably apprehensive. ”
"But it doesn't hurt to say it."
Hearing the emperor's words, Shen Tingge relaxed and said with a smile: "When the courtiers were idle in Xinghua Village, they tried to brew some medicinal wine, and because of the medicinal wine, the courtiers met Gu Li, a businessman who is now known in people's mouths, and talked with him about a few business. The courtiers returned to the Shen Mansion, and saw that their mother's hard work was ruined, and once she was unable to return to her former prosperity, she joined Gu Li's 'Yunxi Chamber of Commerce', so the courtiers were really a businesswoman, and they didn't dare to think about the position of princess. ”
"You, do you know Gu Li? The owner of the Yunxi Chamber of Commerce is Gu Li? ”
The emperor tilted his head and stared at Shen Tingge and asked, for fear of missing an expression.
Shen Tingge showed a girlish smile and said: "Yes, the courtiers are worried about finding a way, Gu Li sent a letter, he said that he had already learned that the Shen family's more than ten shops were not ready to sell, so he stared secretly, and now when I saw that I had taken back the ownership and was ready to reopen, I invited the courtiers to join the club." ”
The emperor's mind was obviously attracted by Gu Li.
Probably because he was afraid that Shen Tingge would be scared and didn't dare to say anything more, he asked kindly: "I heard that Gu Li has built a batch of very powerful weapons to start bidding, do you know about this?" ”
Shen Tingge shook his head and replied: "I heard him talk about using Ugin to build a batch of the sharpest weapons today, and the courtiers laughed at him at that time for having so much Ugin. As for the fact that the weapon bidding has been built, the courtiers don't know. ”
"A weapon made by Ugin!"
The emperor was so shocked that Huo De got up, walked in front of Shen Tingge, leaned over and asked, "Are you sure?" ”
Shen Qingge was startled, and his voice lowered: "That's what he said." ”
The emperor stood up straight and motioned for Shen Qingge to get up, walked up to Mr. Hanxi and asked, "What does Mr. think about this matter?" ”
Mr. Hanxi glanced at Shen Tingge, and made a grimace at himself when he saw Shen Tingge kneeling numb and wrinkling his little face.
"The old man once saw a description in the wild miscellaneous history. It is said that there was a team of elite soldiers under the command of Emperor Zhao back then, and the armor and weapons of Ugin were invincible on the battlefield, and the enemy fled when they heard the sound. ”
When the emperor listened, he suddenly laughed for a long time, and stared at Shen Qinge abruptly, his eyes shining, as if he had seen a rare treasure.
Shen Tingge saw the emperor laughing, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Tianzhuo, who was behind her, looked at this cousin again, as if she had an understanding, but she was still a little uncertain in her heart.
Some families and women broke their heads and wanted the position of a princess, but she lost it in a few words.
It seems to be unintentional, but it is actually intentional.
The emperor is very sensitive to the position of the crown prince, but in the eyes of everyone, only the eldest prince and Prince Xuan can get this position.
But the emperor's mind is known to a few people.
Shen Tingge is a bridge that he can intersect with Gu Li, if the emperor gives Shen Tingge to marry Prince Xuan or the prince of Yasukuni at this juncture, wouldn't he give them a priceless treasure jade and a sharp sword?
In the past three years, Gu Li's reputation has resounded all over the world, he and the Three Kingdoms are better, the trade routes extend in all directions, and a shortcut trade route to the Western Regions has been opened, opening up the trade of the countries of the Western Regions and the Central Plains.
At sea, he built a huge steamship and loaded it with cargo and went out to sea to sail.
Some people say that the wealth brought to Gu Li by that voyage is comparable to that of the national treasury.
Gu Li has business in all three countries, and the tax paid in a year is two-thirds of the entire treasury revenue.
However, even the emperors of the Three Kingdoms had never seen Gu Li.
Shen Tingge is so familiar with Gu Li!
What Shen Tianzhuo was thinking about was also what Emperor Beiyuan was thinking, and the abacus in his heart had already crackled.
When he went to Sheng Qian Palace, he asked some more about Yujiang City and asked about Shen Lao's body.
The light of the setting sun shrouded the girl's body, exuding a faint dizzying brilliance, her appearance is not unparalleled in the world, but her temperament is dusty, like a touch of holy light in the red dust.
If I can get her to help me...... As soon as the old emperor thought about this, he was taken aback by his own thoughts.
At this age, I have a light view of women, and I just ask for a gentle and interpreting person by my side.
Why did I suddenly get moved.
It is said that if he really wants Shen Tingge, it is not impossible, but Shen Tingge has never been tempted by Xuan'er, who is handsome and has an extraordinary bearing, and may be the crown prince, so how can he look down on himself as the concubine of a late man.
No matter how old the old emperor is, he has not yet been confused.
He thought of a possibility.
It is rumored that Gu Li is a young talent, with graceful manners, beautiful appearance, and a rich businessman, even a smart girl like Shen Tingge is no exception.
A group of people outside Huayang Palace were already waiting, and Shen Tingge saw that the emperor's eyes were staring at him motionlessly.
She could see the ups and downs of the old emperor's mind, but in the eyes of outsiders, it was a little ambiguous.
Shen Tingge asked with a smile: "Didn't the emperor feel that the courtiers were like the emperor's beloved people?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the people who followed the emperor were taken aback, and even Mr. Hanxi looked at him in surprise.
Emperor Beiyuan was also confused by Shen Tingge, and his eyes were inquiring.
Shen Tingge made an innocent expression and shrugged his shoulders and said, "It is said that those who are close to ink are black, and those who are close to Zhu are red." The courtiers saw the emperor's warm eyes, and they must have seen Sister Ye's shadow from the courtiers. ”
"You girl, how did you talk to the emperor?"
Mr. Hanxi reproached, and Shen Tingge immediately lowered his head.
