More than ten days later, the grass grew and the warbler flew.

Outside the clean and majestic Tonghua Gate in the east of the city, a convoy came from afar.

When the soldiers defending the city saw that it was the Cui family's convoy, they did not ask for inspection, and waved their hands to continue marching.

Cui Shi's heart jumped in Chang'an, and for the first time, the city made her feel an indescribable magic.

Many things are only popular in Chang'an, and only Chang'an has them, and Qinghe is only a small place in the final analysis.

She was urgently transferred back to Chang'an by her family after she received some gifts from Chen Chu because of an important matter.

And this important matter is about the toothbrush that was developed a few days before the prison, and Cui Shi obtained His Majesty's permission to produce this toothbrush specifically for Datang in the future.

This is not a trivial matter, you must know that the toothbrush is equipped with toothpaste, and how many people in Datang have this thing now? How much profit does a toothbrush make in this?

In addition, the Chen Club has officially opened, but it has been crowded for several days.

It's not that you don't want to go, it's just that there is no way to get in and out.

Some bigwigs relied on their power to break through, and they were directly injured by the club's owner's orders to the left and right guards, leaving no mercy at all.

His Majesty's second sister, Princess Xiangyang and the concubine, were also directly sealed by the owner of the club called a "blacklist" because of their arrogance, and they are not allowed to step into the club in this life!

These rumors are really shocking, each of these people is famous, almost the top power in Chang'an City.

But not only did he not take advantage of the slightest advantage in the conflict, but he even lost face!

The backstage of this Chen Clubhouse is simply numb, the imperial relatives are like mortals in front of it, and there are even rumors in the market that even His Majesty has to be polite to the owner of the club.

In addition, there are also rumors that outside the Chen Club, there are signs that there are suspected to be many important ministers of the court entering and leaving, and there are princesses and princesses who don't know who they are entering the club, and they are all in a hurry.

Cui Shi withdrew his gaze and saw that on both sides of the street in Yongjiafang, there were many people playing against each other.

She already knew about chess, but she didn't know that it had been popularized to this level in Chang'an.

Just because I just entered the city and saw so many chess stalls, how many people were playing chess in the entire Chang'an?

It turned out that a few days ago, in order to further increase the promotion of chess, Chen Chu once again offered a large number of rewards, aiming to greatly increase the number of people in Chang'an who have basic chess skills, and also nourish some masters.

In order to lay the foundation for the prologue of the chess tournament in the future.

At this time, not to mention the small people in the market who were a little idle, scholars, swordsmen, literati, and even ministers of the DPRK and China, officials of Chang'an and nearby countries, and even in the military camp, there were many people playing chess.

So much so that during this period of time, the carpenters of Chang'an, if they didn't know how to build chess, they would be laughed to death.

Some carpenters improved their chess making techniques and recruited people on a temporary basis, and they made a lot of money by making chess, enough for their families to live a slightly richer life.

Is this the power that arises from a person's will? Although he is not in the court, he can make many people act according to his will. ”

Cui Shi has been exposed to it since she was a child, and she has listened to many of these characters from the past and present.

But she didn't think that any of them were more thorough and chic than Chen Chu.

You must know that he is not influencing ordinary people, but all classes up and down.

It won't be too long, and even Qinghe and further away will start to become popular chess, right?

Passing by Cui's resident inn without stopping, Cui Shi went straight to Xuanyangfang Chen's mansion, and she carried the gifts prepared by herself and her family on this trip, and she had to hand them over to the other party as soon as possible.

In this way, she can rest with peace of mind after going back, and the bumps are too tiring for days.

After hearing the news of Cui Shi's visit, Chen Chu, who was arguing with Li Erchang Sun Wuji, raised his head.

Li Er and the others couldn't avoid suspicion, Chen Chu came to the living room by himself and saw Cui Shi who was tired.

"Sister Xiaoshi, I haven't seen you for a while, but you've gotten bigger again."

As soon as Chen Chu opened her mouth, Cui Shi didn't understand something, but she didn't think much about it, and motioned for her subordinates to bring up the gifts she had prepared.

This is some old objects, antiques, etc., that Cui Zhengyuan promised to bring to Chen Chu.

In addition, there are extremely high-quality wood, wild herbs, etc., and Cui Shi herself gave Chen Chu the entire "Book of Songs" that she used a gel pen to extract when she was at home.

For the ancients, it was extraordinary to be able to transcribe a book as a gift.

This not only reflects the owner's confidence in his own writing, but also because it is a very energy-consuming thing, so etiquette is very valuable.

Chen Chu didn't know these particulars, but he subconsciously figured it out, and immediately took it over happily.

Needless to say, Cui Shi's writing and writing style are naturally graceful and clear, with some slight scribbling, easy to recognize and impossible to imitate, some close to the writing style of modern calligraphers.

This made Chen Chu very happy, and after putting it away, he was going to borrow the hand of the little poetry sister another day to study and study the ancient poetry scriptures.

After all, I have become a Tang Dynasty person, and I don't know some ancient Chinese poems or anything, so I just talk to each other, I'm afraid that some words can't be understood.

"I've just been running for so long and I'm tired, you can just rest at my house, someone will clean up your room for you."

Seeing that Sister Xiaoshi's eyelids couldn't control and wanted to close, Chen Chu was also very considerate of her and suggested.

"No need, I'd better cheer up and go back, it's not appropriate."

Cui Shi said a little shyly and declined Chen Chu's kindness.

No matter how big Chen Chu's family is, the meaning of staying here is different, although she is still satisfied with Lord Chen's attitude towards her, she can only refuse.

After Cui Shi left, Chen Chu took the poem and went back triumphantly to find Sun Li again.

"Cui Shi gave it to you?"

Li Er and eldest grandson Wuji stared at the Book of Poetry in Chen Chu's hand, and Li Er suddenly felt a little hairy on his back.

Five surnames and seven wangs, it is no secret in Datang, as a member of the Li family in Longxi, Li Er certainly does not know who Cui Shi is, although she is only a junior.

This is a woman of the same age who is the best in terms of talent, ability, knowledge and temperament.

Although it is very likely that this poem is just an ordinary return gift from the other party, Li Er can't convince himself no matter what.

Even though the gel pen is much easier to copy than the brush, there are a lot of poems about love in the Book of Songs, and even if the copy is fast, I don't know how long it will take.

Maybe Miss Cui Si didn't think of this layer herself, but in the eyes of outsiders, her approach was already a little inappropriate.

"Have you read the Book of Songs?" The eldest grandson Wuji asked Chen Chu.

"How could it be that you haven't seen it? But that's only part of it. Chen Chu said, we have also learned middle school textbooks and university textbooks, although it is impossible to say that we have read the whole book.

This is also too torturous for modern people, and the vast majority of people can't do it.

"Alas, forget it, let's continue to discuss, Xiao Chen, we have known each other for so long and the relationship is so iron, can't you really loosen your mouth?"

The eldest grandson Wuji continued to persuade him bitterly, and he didn't bother to think about Cui Shi.

The same is true for Li Er, these days have been miserable.
