Chapter 40: What a Hell
Coming out of Li Er's Manna Palace, Zhao Chen groped and was walking outside the palace, but he didn't expect that Li Chengqian, who was seen from afar, was standing in front of him, smiling, looking at him.
Zhao Chen glanced behind him strangely, and then pointed to his nose and asked, "Are you waiting for me?" ”
"I heard early in the morning that Brother Chen went to his father's place!" Li Chengqian smiled at Zhao Chen and said, "So, I'll wait here early in the morning for Brother Chen to come out of my father's place!" ”
"Uh, wait for me?" When Zhao Chen heard this, the expression on his face was slightly stunned. Since he came back from Lingnan, this is the first time Li Chengqian has met him, and he has made a special trip to wait here, Zhao Chen is a little puzzled, what is the matter with Li Chengqian looking for him.
Li Chengqian's face suddenly became embarrassed, and after talking for a long time, Zhao Chen finally understood. Li Chengqian deliberately set up a banquet for him in the East Palace, wanting to apologize for Li Tai and the matter of the Ganlu Hall that day.
As soon as Zhao Chen heard this, his face suddenly turned ugly, this matter is Li Tai's self-inflicted cleverness, but the consequences are very serious.
If it weren't for that time, he and Li Chengqian saw through it in time, maybe later, he might have left directly!
"Qingque'er has been punished by the queen mother!" Li Chengqian naturally understood the anger in Zhao Chen's heart, and as he spoke, he explained to Zhao Chen that in the past few days, Li Tai was punished by the eldest grandson to the Zongren Mansion.
After listening to Li Chengqian's words, Zhao Chen knew that since Li Tai walked out of the main hall that day, he was punished by the eldest grandson to the Zongren Mansion on the spot. It wasn't until yesterday evening that it was released from the Zongren Mansion.
Zhao Chen hadn't been to the place in Zongren's Mansion, but. But it doesn't mean that you don't know the place of the Zongren Mansion. To put it bluntly, it is the prison of the royal family. Although the environment inside is slightly better, a six or seven-year-old child can be locked inside, and Zhao Chen admires the eldest grandson a little.
Then go for it! When Zhao Chen heard Li Chengqian say this, he smiled helplessly at Li Chengqian, and walked towards the East Palace one after the other.
At this time, when I went back to the house, the house must be those who came to repay the money, and Zhao Chen originally intended to avoid them. It just happened that Li Chengqian was invited, so he went to the East Palace to stay for a while. By the way, visit the East Palace.
The East Palace is located in the east of the Taiji Palace, and occupies a place in the palace alone, with many palaces inside. Because, Li Chengqian has just opened the mansion, and everything is still in preparation, so the entire East Palace seems a little empty.
Zhao Chen followed Li Chengqian all the way in, looking at the huge palace complex in the huge East Palace, and imagined it in his mind. When night fell, the appearance of the entire East Palace immediately shook its head.
If he were to live here alone, it would probably not be a few days. Even if he was asked to be the Jade Emperor, he was not happy.
followed Li Chengqian to a palace and just entered. Zhao Chen saw Li Tai standing there in a plain robe at a glance, and saw Zhao Chen come in. Li Tai suddenly rushed at Zhao Chen and arched his hands. I made a long stroke.
"Student Qingque, a few days ago, he pretended to be clever and rashly collided with Mr., and I hope that Mr. can be magnanimous and forgive Qingque's ignorance!"
As he spoke, Li Tai bowed to Zhao Chen again, and his attitude of admitting his mistake was extremely sincere. However, with the lessons of the past, Zhao Chen always felt that the guy in front of him was a bit inconsistent.
"This incident is also a lesson, I hope you can remember this lesson in the future!" After all, he is the identity of the prince, and now that he is facing him, even if it is perfunctory, Zhao Chen will not be able to keep a cold face.
"Qingque must remember the teachings of Mr.!" When Li Tai heard this, he waved his body towards Zhao Chen again, and said earnestly.
Seeing this, Zhao Chen nodded, and when his eyes turned to Li Chengqian to the side, he suddenly found that Li Chengqian's eyes widened with a ghostly expression.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Chen was startled when he saw Li Chengqian's ghost-like expression, and as he spoke, his eyes turned to the hall again. However, everything is as usual in the hall, except for a group of chamberlains and palace maids, it is Li Tai and a pretty maid beside him, and there is nothing to be surprised about.
"No... It's nothing! When Li Chengqian heard this, he seemed to have suddenly woken up, and hurriedly waved his hand and said. It's just that this look of wanting to cover up makes Zhao Chen even more suspicious.
His eyes were suspicious again, and he swept around the hall, however, just like before, Zhao Chen didn't find anything.
The meal was quite awkward, and the Li Chengqian brothers sat there in an orderly manner, not smiling, and meticulously implementing the royal etiquette.
Li Tai he doesn't understand, but Li Chengqian knows very well, this guy has a restless heart hidden in his chest. On the way back to Chang'an, this guy is simply a vegetarian, and when he was outside, he talked and laughed with him, and now it is like a different person.
Zhao Chen deliberately told a joke to Li Chengqian, and then he was shocked to find that Li Chengqian and Li Tai obviously wanted to laugh, but they just held back their laughter.
It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, if Zhao Chen still doesn't understand that there is a monster in the hall, then he should really go out and die head-on. can make Li Chengqian jealous of being like this, Zhao Chen really doesn't dare to think about who it is!
"Something suddenly remembered!" Thinking of this, Zhao Chen suddenly stood up, arched his hand at Li Chengqian, looked very anxious, and said: "Thank you for the hospitality of His Royal Highness the Prince, I won't bother you anymore today!" ”
After that, without waiting for Li Chengqian to speak, he got up from his seat and turned around to leave.
“… I don't know when Mr. will rush to Shandong! Zhao Chen had just turned around, and the person sitting there Li Tai suddenly seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly asked at Zhao Chen.
"Probably the day after tomorrow!" Li Tai was concerned about his itinerary, and Zhao Chen thought it was just an ordinary sentence, so he didn't shy away from saying it.
The matter of the school palace has already been settled, just wait for the next two days, Li Er nodded and agreed, and Zhao Chen will immediately set off for Shandong.
“… Then may I ask Mr., will Qingqueer be able to follow Mr. to Shandong at that time? Zhao Chen's voice fell, but he didn't expect Li Tai to suddenly say such a sentence. Zhao Chen saw it clearly this time, and when Li Tai said this, his eyes seemed to glance slightly behind him. An expression that was clearly commanded.
What the fuck!
Zhao Chen's gaze casually glanced behind Li Tai, except for the pretty maid beside Li Tai. Nothing!
"This requires His Majesty's consent!" Zhao Chen retracted his gaze and said to Li Tai: "Furthermore." The trip to Shandong is to go to disaster relief, I'm afraid it will be a little inconvenient to take you there! ”
Can't stay any longer, the ghost knows, who is hiding in this hall, after saying this, Zhao Chen didn't delay any longer, hurriedly said goodbye, and left the East Palace. All the way to the outside of the palace.
"Sister!" Seeing Zhao Chen's figure disappear far away, Li Chengqian turned around with a bitter face, looked behind Li Tai, and the princess of Xiangcheng, dressed as a pretty maid, spoke.
Today, he originally served the queen mother's wishes, and set up a banquet for Zhao Chen in the East Palace, so that Qingque'er would act that day. apologized to Zhao Chen. Originally, Qingque'er came alone, but he didn't expect that the person who came would be his sister, Princess Xiangcheng.
and then they entered the temple. When his eyes suddenly saw the princess of Xiangcheng beside Qingque'er, Li Chengqian almost didn't scream. His father gave Princess Xiangcheng to marry Zhao Chen, and as a result. was rejected by Zhao Chen in court.
There is no result in this matter so far, and I saw Princess Xiangcheng suddenly appear. Li Chengqian can not be surprised!
"In a few days, Sister Ah will accompany Qingque'er to Shandong!" Princess Xiangcheng heard this. Looking at Li Chengqian, a pair of pink fists suddenly clenched, and said with a faint gaze: "He made Sister Ah lose face, and Sister Ah went to pick up her face herself!" ”
"It's not... This one... Sister..."Li Chengqian felt like crazy when he heard this, looked at Princess Xiangcheng, stammered for a while, and didn't know what to say.
Li Tai on the side stood silently aside, obviously, the team had already known about this result.
"Don't worry!" Princess Xiangcheng looked at the crazy Li Chengqian and said: "Sister has already told the queen mother about this, otherwise how could Sister go out of the palace without permission!" ”
"The Queen Mother agreed!" When Li Chengqian heard this, he immediately stood there with his mouth open, and the whole person was stunned.
Coming out of the palace, Zhao Chen was still thinking about what happened in the East Palace just now, and he felt like he had seen a ghost.
However, when he was looking down to think about things, he couldn't help but hear someone calling his name, and when he looked up in surprise, he saw Feng Zhidai, who was wearing a Tang official robe and a soft-footed hood on his head, walking towards him in a strange costume.
"Brother Feng, this is a promotion!" Zhao Chen saw that the official robe Feng Zhidai was wearing, which was the official robe of the seventh grade, and immediately said with a smile.
When Feng Zhidai heard Zhao Chen's words, the muscles on his face couldn't help twitching vigorously, knowing that Zhao Chen was making fun of him. However, he still endured the discomfort in his heart and arched his hand at Zhao Chen.
"Brother Feng, is there something wrong?" Feng Zhidai has lived in Chang'an's pavilion since he arrived in Chang'an, during this time Zhao Chen was busy raising money, and Feng Zhidai was busy presenting a watch to Li Er, and the two met for the first time in Chang'an.
"Feng is asking Chang'an Hou!" Feng Zhidai looked at Zhao Chen and said, "Now, it's almost seven or eight days, what to do with the goods on our ship?" ”
"Wait until I come back from Shandong first!" Speaking of this, Zhao Chen also had a headache, and he had been asked by Cheng Chu Mo many times. But now is not the time to sell, these things are worth a lot of money, and the starting price from ordinary people is only those officials in the court.
But the problem is that he has just extorted a sum of money from these people, and if he sells it at this time, I am afraid it will lead to a cold situation.
Only when he comes back from Shandong will it be a good time, just during this time, to hype it up and let them fully understand the preciousness of these things.
Seeing Feng Zhidai's already dark face, which became more and more black like the bottom of a pot, Zhao Chen had no choice but to comfort: "Don't worry, Brother Feng, when I come back from Shandong, I promise to buy a full ship of goods!" ”
"When does Chang'an Hou plan to come back?" When Feng Zhidai heard Zhao Chen's words, his heart trembled, but on the surface, he still asked patiently.
"Two months at most!" Zhao Chen raised two fingers at Feng Zhidai and said with a smile: "Perhaps, it's impossible to come back in less than two months!" (To be continued......)
