Chapter 116: Ma Zhou's Disappearance (First Update)
"Madam, Brother Tao is really kind enough, every time no matter what delicious food is delivered, it will be sent to our house. The most important thing is that he saved his wife's life. ”
In the Mansion of the Kingdom of the Kingdom, the old god Cheng Biting Jin was drinking a little wine and tasting the mung bean sprouts sent by Cheng Chumo.
A laid-back look.
"The master knows the benefits of reading Brother Tao, and this time Brother Tao invented such a money-making sprout, I always feel that something bad is going to happen."
Sun looked gloomy.
"Madame, the old man knows what you are worried about? Isn't it just that some people covet Brother Tao's craftsmanship and want to take it for themselves to collect money. I Lao Cheng wants to see who has this guts. ”
Old General Cheng glared at a pair of big bull's eyes and said viciously.
Sure enough, the next morning, it was not yet dawn.
There was a long queue at the door of Tao Xiaosheng Restaurant.
The news that each person was limited to three catties spread throughout Chang'an City that night.
Many large families arranged the designated queue last night so that they could buy delicious bean sprouts in time.
Because everyone who has tasted mung bean sprouts will never forget its taste.
People can't understand how such a delicious vegetable is made in Chang'an.
If you don't understand it, don't think about it, it's not expensive anyway.
The price of two pennies a pound is really fair.
But some people can't sit still, they see this huge piece of fat, the endless business opportunities it contains!
Although His Majesty Li Er has already explained that he must not touch the bean sprout industry in Chang'an Houfu.
But in the face of huge interests, not tempted? That's impossible.
What's more, they thought they had enough power to deal with the pressure of His Majesty Li Er.
Just when Chang'an Houfu counted the money every day in the past few days, and the count was soft.
Accidents still happened.
Ma Zhou is gone!
Ma Zhouma's big butler is gone?
Along with Ma Zhou, there are bean sprouts that have just been slaughtered in the morning.
Every morning, Ma Zhou has to rush from Houfu to the farm as soon as possible, and load the bean sprouts to be slaughtered and transported to the restaurant for sale.
However, today, Chu Liang and the eldest girl waited for a long time and did not see Ma Zhou's carriage coming, and they couldn't help but panic a little in their hearts.
The problem is that there are too many people queuing up now, and if there is no supply of bean sprouts, how can you explain to everyone?
Until sunrise, the eldest girl felt that she couldn't wait.
"Brother Chu Liang, you can ride over and have a look. Did Brother Ma break down the carriage on the road? ”
The eldest girl said worriedly.
"Okay, I'll come when I go. Here you first maintain order. After Cheng Chuliang finished speaking, he rode to the farm.
Along the way, there was no figure of Ma Zhou and the carriage.
Cheng Chuliang's heart became heavier and heavier, and when he rushed to the farm, Liu Renliang and Pei Xingjian informed Senior Brother Ma that he had already rushed to the restaurant.
Cheng Chuliang knew that something big was wrong.
He didn't have time to explain, so he immediately rode away from the waiting house.
At the moment, I can only inform the little marquis as soon as possible, and I really don't have the slightest idea.
Tao Ran was still in the quilt when he was shocked by Cheng Chuliang's words.
"Brother, Brother Ma is gone."
"When?" Tao Ran immediately and quickly put on his clothes.
"It should be on the way from the farm to the restaurant." Cheng Chuliang replied truthfully.
"Come with me to the scene again!" Tao Ran immediately realized that something big was wrong.
I didn't expect them to do anything to Ma Zhou, it seems that they know that Ma Zhou has mastered the whole process of cultivating bean sprouts.
I didn't expect these people to be so well-informed!
"Forget it, Chu Liang, you should hurry up and inform Brother Mo of Chu Mo, and inform Your Majesty through His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that the bean sprouts are being targeted. I'll do my own research along the way. Then you go to the farm to escort the bean sprouts, no matter how much, you can't let the restaurant run out of stock today. ”
Tao Ran said.
"Okay, brother. I'll go right away. ”
After returning from the palace, Chu Liang immediately informed the eldest girl that Brother Ma was gone, and then drove the carriage to the farm to temporarily escort the bean sprouts.
"Prince, my brother's big butler Ma Zhou is gone."
Cheng Chumo said with big eyes.
"What?" When the crown prince Li Chengqian heard this, he immediately got up and went to the Taiji Palace.
The crown prince knew that during his father's early dynasty, he did not allow others to disturb him without major incidents.
He was already resolutely walking towards the Taiji Hall, because he felt that this incident was big enough.
Fortunately, it was Ma Zhou who disappeared, but what if it was the teacher who disappeared?
The consequences would be dire.
"Your Majesty, the prince has something urgent to report at the door."
Chief Manager Yang Hao gently walked to His Majesty Li Er's side and said in a low voice.
"Oh, Prince Xuan come in."
His Majesty Li Er's face sank suddenly, if nothing else, it should be that something happened to Chang'anhou.
"Father, the teacher's butler Ma Zhou is missing, just on the way to deliver the bean sprouts in the morning."
The crown prince Li Chengqian walked up to His Majesty Li Er and said anxiously.
"What?" His Majesty Li Er immediately stood up.
It seems that there are really people who don't take their words seriously.
"Chang'an is okay?" His Majesty Li Er asked anxiously.
"Father, the teacher is all right. However, because it is not the teacher who transports the bean sprouts, if it is a teacher, it is estimated that it will be more auspicious. ”
The crown prince Li Chengqian added a fire to His Majesty Li Er at the right time.
"Smack!" A bang.
His Majesty Li Er slapped the table in front of him.
Several scrolls were shaken down and scattered on the ground of the Taiji Hall.
"It just doesn't make sense." His Majesty Li Er was furious.
In an instant, he slammed the table hard. "Is this someone trying to rebel?" Shouted a shout.
"Your Majesty, don't be angry with the dragon body. Who made His Majesty angry? ”
The eldest grandson Wuji came out of the class and said, as the eldest brother and unwavering supporter of His Majesty Li Er, the eldest grandson Wuji stood up firmly at this time.
"Qian'er, you go first, let Cheng Wei lead people to protect the Hou Mansion first, and don't go on any more business trips."
His Majesty Li Er solemnly explained.
"The retainers obey."
The crown prince Li Chengqian retired from his father and queen and hurried to the East Palace.
He asked Cheng Chumo to immediately summon the soldiers to ensure the safety of the Hou Mansion in accordance with his father's instructions.
"I just said it here a few days ago. The bean sprouts developed by Chang'an Hou are a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and some people have been warned not to meddle in the production of bean sprouts, but some people still don't take me seriously! Just this morning, someone intercepted and kidnapped Ma Zhou, the chief housekeeper of Chang'an Hou, on the road. You're giving me eye medicine alive! ”
His Majesty Li Er was out of breath and pointed to the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and said.
"His grandmother's, who did it? I'm the first to finish with him! ”
As soon as His Majesty Li Er's words fell, General Cheng Lao immediately became angry and said loudly like thunder.
