After listening to Li Huan's words, the emperor's expression became very strange.

Because according to what Li Jian said just now, Li Yuanjia sold more than 100 catties of thirteen incense in Chang'an and made thousands of yuan? And let people continue to catch up in Luzhou, and then sell it in Chang'an for money?

"Huh...... Little bastard! ”

After smiling and throwing down a sentence, Li Shimin looked down at the letter on the table again and didn't say anything more.

Li Huan, who heard these words, jumped in a heartbeat, lowered his head and squeezed the corners of his eyes in surprise - the emperor is quite protective of that king! No matter how you look at it, what Li Yuanjia did this time has been out of the category of human affection or normal exchanges, and it is definitely doing business, but listening to the emperor's laughing and scolding tone just now, he doesn't intend to investigate or interfere?

"Tsk, that's weird."

Squinting his eyes slightly, Li Jian secretly pondered.

As one of the most trusted people around the emperor, although Li Huan's official position is not high, his pondering of Li Shimin's thoughts is not much worse than that of those important ministers. So sometimes the emperor's every move, every word and word, in Li Ji's opinion, represents his views on some people and some things.

For example, the seemingly casual laugh and scolding just now, that kind of tone and demeanor, Li Jian even heard it only from the time when the emperor said his son, and it was Li Chengqian and Li Tai!

Could it be ......

As soon as a thought came to his mind, Li Jian immediately shook his head, feeling that he was thinking too much. Although he was the emperor's younger brother, he was only a younger brother, how could he be compared to his own son?

It's just that after laughing, Li Jian always has a weird feeling.

Because in terms of age, Li Yuanjia seems to be one year older than Li Chengqian? And even if he is not a son, but with the recent increase in the frequency of Li Shimin's inquiries about King Yu, Li Jian always feels that the emperor's attitude towards his younger brother seems to be undergoing subtle changes......

……

Li Yuanjia, who was rejected again, seemed to be very disappointed on the surface that he couldn't return to Chang'an, and even locked himself in the study alone for an afternoon, but in fact, he was secretly relieved in his heart.

To be honest, he was really afraid that Li Shimin would be relieved because of Qu Yuanli's great achievements!

The Quyuan plow is indeed a divine object in this era, and the Quyuan plough made by Li Yuanjia for his own farms alone has greatly increased the production efficiency of farmers this year - according to Han Shan, it is the work that used to take three people to complete, but now two people can complete it.

This is a great thing for the king!

You must know that in Luzhou alone, Li Yuanjia has tens of thousands of acres of land, and the farmers who cultivate the land have always been recruited. Now with the existence of Quyuan plow, it means that if everything goes well this year, there will be a lot of grain out of thin air!

This is just Li Yuanjia alone, what if you look at the world?

So when I think about it, he also regrets it a little.

This limelight is a bit big, and it's too popular. Fortunately, apart from rewarding him with some gold, silver and jewelry, Li Shimin did not do anything else, and he did not even have a formal "praise" edict. The officials in King Xu's Mansion were a little indignant because of this, and Li Yuanjia himself breathed a sigh of relief!

As he is now, he wants those things to have a hairy use?

If you want to talk about money, there are tens of thousands of yuan in the treasury now, and there are countless other jewelry and cloth, and there are tens of thousands of acres of land outside, not to mention that he will not have to worry about eating and drinking all his life, even if he will raise his ten or twenty children in the future, it will be no problem; In terms of status, he is now a one-word king, and he is already at the top in Datang, the eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling can't catch up, so it can be said that in addition to not having much real power, what else is there to pursue......

No, in fact, Li Yuanjia still has pursuits.

For example, on the afternoon of the fourth day after receiving the news of Chang'an's refusal, he summoned Wang Pu, who was in charge of the papermaking matter, and handed over the two pieces of paper excitedly: "Wang Pu, look at these two pieces of paper, can you tell which one you sent an hour ago?" Haha, that's the one you just made! ”

"Back to the king, of course you can!"

There was no need to look at it carefully, Wang Pu just took turns twisting the two pieces of paper between his two fingers, and immediately said with great certainty: "This one is what we just made, and the other one is not the latest batch to be made, nor is it any batch we have made before...... King, this is someone else's paper! ”

"That's right! Hahaha......"

Hearing Wang Pu say this, Li Yuanjia suddenly laughed happily.

No way, he was so happy today.

Taking back the two pieces of paper in Wang Pu's hand, Li Yuanjia looked to the left, then to the right, and found that if he didn't consider Wang Pu's words just now, he would definitely not be able to tell which one was...... No, it should be said that he would never be able to tell which one was of better quality and which one was slightly worse!

It's a great feeling.

Wang Pu stood respectfully on the side, but he was confused by Li Yuanjia's laughter, and he didn't know why.

Fortunately, the king didn't let him wait too long, and quickly put the two pieces of paper on the table, and asked happily: "Wang Pu, do you know whose family that paper is?" ”

After thinking about it very seriously, Wang Pu asked cautiously: "Wang, please forgive me for guessing boldly, is it from the Li Family Paper Mill in Chang'an?" ”

"Haha, that's right, you guessed right!"

As soon as he heard Wang Pu, he directly guessed the main master, and while Li Yuanjia nodded again and again, his face was happy again.

“……”

The corners of his mouth barely twitched twice, Wang Pu's mouth didn't speak, but he was quite speechless in his heart.

Is it hard to guess this result?

In the past six months, as long as Wang Pu and Niu Da Niu Er have made a batch of new paper, but the quality is slightly better than the last time, it will be used for Li Yuanjia's purpose. And every time they brought new paper, the king had to use it to make a comparison with the things in the Li family's paper mill, and Wang Pu had never seen the second one.

This time, is it still an exception?

Of course, it is enough to complain about these words in his heart, and Wang Pu will never dare to say them directly.

However, looking at the king's excitement today, he was also a little strange, and he was also a little disapproving. After all, the paper they made a few times before was also excellent, and the gap was very small compared to the things in the Li family paper workshop, and this time they achieved the same level, is it really so worthy of the king's pleasure......

"Huh? Wrong! ”

Thinking about it, Wang Pu suddenly came back to his senses!

If it was just the same as the ordinary paper in the Li family's paper mill, how could he be so excited based on the king's previous reactions?

Could it be ......

After seeing Wang Pu's expression suddenly change, his eyes gradually began to widen, and Li Yuanjia said with a smile: "What? You've finally figured it out? Haha, the new paper you made this time is no longer the same as the ordinary paper of Lijia Paper Workshop, but the same as their top products with the highest selling price! ”

"Goo-dong!"

Swallowing with difficulty, Wang Pu said in a trembling voice: "King, this ...... This piece of paper is the best in the Li family paper mill? ”

"Yes, it's the best!"

Taking a deep breath, Li Yuanjia nodded and said seriously: "You have made the same great white paper as them, the best white paper in the whole Tang Dynasty......
