Chapter 58: Surprises

When Liu Hu went out, Li Chengqian looked at Xia Ju's red forehead, and said that it was false not to feel distressed, after all, she has been taking care of her daily life since she crossed by herself, and she is still loyal to herself, and the most important thing is that she is still very beautiful.

But her performance today is a little pampered and arrogant, which is very bad, because she is not reminding her and continues, even if she is behind her, it will be difficult for her to survive in this palace in the future.

And Li Chengqian has now discovered himself, slowly changing, the bad environment in the blood and the outside world is making him more like a superior person, especially when dealing with those ministers, palace maids, eunuchs and some subordinates, that kind of change and action in his heart make him involuntarily put on another face, involuntarily calculate, want to control others, his true self will only be revealed in front of his family and close people.

All of this stems from the deep uneasiness in his heart and the change of the environment, the kind of understanding a little, but not very understanding, this feeling of seeing but not touching, is the biggest fear in people's hearts, that is, this kind of heart makes him very insecure now, which makes him calculate, want to completely control his life, but because of the lack of ability, he is very powerless, and he hates this feeling.

People are like this, either they don't understand anything, then they can live carefree, or they can control themselves, and those who have a sense of awe and satisfaction can also make his life easier, but obviously Li Chengqian is nothing now, he is not ignorant, and he can't control himself.

But he quickly got rid of the thoughts in his heart, instead of dwelling so much, it is better to think about what to eat for a while, anyway, he is an ordinary person, he can change it, he can't, it's a big deal to find a place to hide, the world is so big, I don't believe it anymore.

Throwing off the burden in his heart, Li Chengqian looked at Hu Shang in front of him, and his mood was much better, after all, this guy has garlic in his hand and can speak Chinese, these are what he wants "What is your name, where are you from, what are you doing in my Datang"

"The noble one, the little one's name is Muhammad. Shadrach. Siltai ......"

"Shut up, from now on you will be called Hu Mo, what kind of ghost name, remember not, now go on" Hearing Hu Mo's name, that long list, Li Chengqian, who was upset, directly changed his name.

"Ah" Hu Mo never thought that his name would be changed in such a vague way.

"Ah what, why are you not satisfied" Li Chengqian looked at him with a smile.

"No, the little one is not dissatisfied, and the little one will be called Hu Mo in the future" Hu Mo didn't dare to resist for the sake of his life, and said like resignation.

Seeing this, Li Chengqian didn't speak, but just motioned for him to continue with his eyes.

And from Hu Mo's confession, Li Chengqian learned his origin, his grandfather was an Arab who migrated to Gaochang to escape the war when the ancient Arab Empire was not yet unified, as for him, because he heard about the richness of the Tang Dynasty, he brought some leather goods and specialties to Chang'an many times to do business, but this time he was unlucky to sell the leather goods today, and when he was going to buy some tea and silk to sell, he met Li Chengqian, was arrested in the East Palace and was beaten.

"Gao Chang, didn't you say you brought some souvenirs? Are there any cantaloupe, raisins, pepper and other things" Li Chengqian stared at Hu Mo after speaking.

"Yes, yes, cantaloupe has it, and there is another one, there is a lot of pepper, and there are a lot of raisins, all of which are on my luggage, by the way, I still have cumin" Hu Mo heard Li Chengqian's words, although he was surprised how he would know, but he still quickly replied.

"And cumin, then what are you waiting for, don't give it to this king, why are you stupid, hurry up" Hearing that there is cumin, Li Chengqian is not calm, that's a good thing, seeing that Hu Mo was still stunned, he kicked him and let him go.

"That, my luggage has been taken away, I, I" Hu Mo looked at Li Chengqian aggrievedly.

Seeing this, Li Chengqian hurriedly asked people to bring Hu Mo's salute, and sure enough, he found a bag of pepper, a bag of cumin, a big bag of raisins, and a cantaloupe and a large watermelon, of course, garlic was also in it.

"Hu Mo, now let's talk about your business, this king can let you go, but you have to help this king do things, of course, it is not a difficult thing, that is, let you continue to do business, this king will prepare for you to bring my Tang Dynasty's best silk and tea back to Gaochang to sell, you will bring back a large number of cantaloupe, raisins, watermelons and other melons and fruits, spices, and some special products, the profits, this king will give you 3 percent, as for how you open up the channel, then I don't care, but if you run away, even if you run to the ends of the earth, this king can kill you" Li Chengqian said to Hu Mo while eating delicious raisins.

"Does that little one know who you really are? You have always called yourself the king, I don't know" Hu Mo was startled when he heard Li Chengqian's words, and then he calmed down, and asked boldly.

"Haha, you are very smart, this king is the prince of the Tang Empire, now you know, what do you think" Li Chengqian looked at Hu Mo with a smile.

"What, you are the prince, the little Hu Mo has seen His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't want 3% of the profits, I want 1 success, I just hope that His Royal Highness can agree to let the little ones take their families to live in the Tang Dynasty, so that they can get the identity of a commoner" Hearing that Li Chengqian was saying that he was the prince and the prince, Hu Mo immediately knelt down and said again and again.

After all, he has come to Chang'an many times and has already liked it here, but Datang's strict household registration system and rejection of strangers have made him completely helpless, but now he is facing the prince of Datang, and if he doesn't seize such an opportunity, then he is stupid.

"That's it, okay, you bring people, as long as you do things well for this king, these are small problems, and the 3% profit is still yours, come and take Hu Mo down, entertain him well, wait for Zhang Gao to come back, let Zhang Gao and him, go down" After speaking, Li Chengqian asked Hu Mo to stay.

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince, thank you, Your Royal Highness the Prince" Hearing Li Chengqian's words, Hu Mo excitedly kowtowed to Li Chengqian a few times before leaving with a guard.

"Xia Ju, go to the Lizheng Palace and invite my mother over, I got so many good things today, if I don't have a good meal, I'm sorry for myself, this raisin is good, give you a little taste" After speaking, Li Chengqian took a little raisin and gave it to Xia Ju.

"Your Royal Highness Xie's reward" took the raisins given by Li Chengqian, and Xia Ju quickly knelt down.

At the same time, she also knew that Li Chengqian had not given up on her, and the previous things had passed! This made Xia Ju's heart that had been hanging finally landed.

"Okay, let's go, take care of your forehead before you go" After saying that, he took the watermelon and the raisins and walked towards the lobby.
