In the storage room, there are a lot of sundries, mainly used to store cleaning supplies, such as brooms, mops, rags, etc., and some toilets, etc., although they are neatly placed, but there is still a musty smell. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although Li Shimin frowned, he still had to go inside. The eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly stopped him and said, "Your Majesty, you can wait in the room outside." ”

Li Shimin said, "It's okay," and walked in.

In the house, several guards guarded a box, and the captain of the guard, Ma Xuanliang, motioned for them to go out, he stepped forward to open the box, and then also stepped aside and stood.

A look of surprise flashed in Li Shimin's eyes, and then he looked carefully at the sculpture in the box.

The eldest grandson Wuji was also very surprised, and after a long time, he clicked his lips and said, "It's really domineering!" No wonder the steppe people are desperately snatching it. ”

Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji went out of the house and sat on the couch where the eunuchs slept outside. He said: "This object is undoubtedly a huge attraction for the tribes on the grassland, and if it is used well, it will definitely help the Tang Dynasty control the grassland." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "The emperor is right. We can use it to divide the main tribes of the steppe, causing disputes between the Xue Yantuo (steppe), the Turks (another steppe people), and even the Western Turks (Russia). Therefore, this treasure must be firmly in the hands of Datang. ”

Li Shimin nodded, stood up and said, "Auxiliary machine (eldest grandson Wuji's character), let's go back and discuss it with Fang Xuanling and Cen Wenwen." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Okay." Follow Li Shimin and go out.

Before going out, Tang Taizong Li Shimin instructed: "Ma Xuanliang, you have to take care of this thing carefully, and nothing goes wrong." ”

"Obey. Please rest assured that the emperor will ensure that this thing is foolproof. Ma Xuanliang responded.

That same evening. The bedroom of Li Su in the Liang Palace.

Huang Qi, who joined the army in the palace record, came to see Li Su with a box under the escort of Yang Kang, the commander of the army.

As soon as he entered the door, he said in surprise: "Lord, this time you are really rich." You see. ”

As he spoke, he asked Yang Kang to open the box.

Li Su came over to take a look, and his eyes were so shaken by the contents that he couldn't open his eyes.

In the box, there are piles of yellow gold bars and gold bricks. This is also the first time that Li Su has seen so much gold.

His gaze was away from the gold, but he still hadn't opened it, not this time it wasn't dazzling, but his eyes narrowed into a slit with pleasure. He beckoned, "Huang joins the army, please take a seat." Oh, Yang Kang, you can sit too. ”

"Thank you, Lord Wang." The two thanked each other and sat down.

Huang Qi said: "The minister went to Honglu Temple this time and found a Roman merchant to sell your West Sea Orb, and the result was very smooth. 10 jewels, each sold for 100 to 120 taels, Xue Yantuo there was 200 taels, and the total was 1,320 taels of gold. Hehe, lord, that's a lot. ”

Yang Kang also said: "Lord Wang, it's the first time I've seen so much gold put together!" ”

Li Su said with a smile: "This king thinks about it, in the future, let's think about doing business, making a fortune, and national affairs, let others worry about it." We're rich, so everyone's life is better, isn't it? ”

After speaking, he took out 5 taels of gold and gave it to Huang Qi. took out 2 taels of gold and gave it to Yang Kang. said: "You have worked hard this time, and you will be rewarded at this time." ”

That's more than they can make in a year. Huang Qi and Yang Kang were very happy and stood up to thank them.

After sitting down again, Huang Qi said: "Yang Kang, you go and get busy first, I have something to discuss with the prince." ”

After Yang Kang went out, Huang Qi said with some concern: "Lord Wang, you have a lot of good things in your hands recently, and the source channels of the things must be kept secret." Also, if the jewels sold to Fanbang countries this time are known, will anyone make a fuss? ”

Huang Qi is not confused, and there are many things to consider. Recently, King Liang's temperament has changed a lot, and everyone's life has been much better. He really cares about Li Su.

His words reminded Li Su.

Li Su Taobao came to so many things that do not belong to this era, it will inevitably attract people's attention, if Li Shimin asks, he must give an explanation.

"The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty."

Li Su has a treasure in his hand, and he will definitely be coveted by others. Fortunately, he is a prince, otherwise, someone would have forced him to ask him about the origin of the things.

Li Shimin asked him last time, and Li Su said casually, but Li Shimin did not delve into it. However, in the future, he will definitely ask Li Su this question officially, how should he answer it when the time comes?

"You'll have to think about it." Li Su thought in his heart. He asked Huang Qi and said, "You're right. I'll take notice. ”

Subsequently, Li Su said: "You left me 100 taels of gold, which is the money I borrowed when I bought the goods." I'll pay it back, and you can put the rest of the money into your account. ”

Li Su thought about it, and with the 100 taels of gold in his hand, he didn't need to let the government know when he used the money, which was convenient.

The afternoon of the next day, the second day of the Lunar New Year. The Fuqin Hall of the Virtuous Concubine.

Besides, Princess An Ning has been in poor health and depressed. Concubine Xian Niangniang didn't have a good year this year. Concubine Xian Niangniang was talking with Princess An Ning, and the crown prince Li Chengqian came over, followed by Changsun Chong.

Concubine Xian Niangniang was unhappy when she saw Changsun Chong, she was worried that the arrival of Changsun Chong would stimulate Anning and make her do something stupid again.

She greeted her, put her finger to her mouth, and made a quiet gesture for everyone to come outside and talk.

When she arrived outside, Concubine Xian thought that An Ning couldn't hear it, and asked, "Cheng Qian, Changsun Chong, what are you doing here?" ”

The crown prince Li Chengqian said: "We came to greet you, and by the way, take a look at Sister Anning." ”

Concubine Xian said worriedly: "It's not necessary to look at Anning, her situation is not good, don't stimulate her anymore." ”

Li Chengqian said: "It is precisely because she is in a bad condition that we came to persuade her. My father has decided to let her marry on the sixth day of junior high school, do you think she can marry smoothly when she is now? ”

Concubine Xian sighed, tears flowed down her eyes, and she said, "My daughter who is miserable. ”

The eldest grandson Chong said: "Niangniang, the minister has already figured it out, let the minister persuade the princess." ”

Concubine Xian saw that the eldest grandson Chong was in a good state of mind, and it seemed that she had really figured it out. She knew that An Ning listened to him and felt that it was good to let him persuade her, but she was unwilling to let Eldest Sun Chong see An Ning alone. She said, "Okay, I'll go in with you." ”

Li Chengqian said: "Niangniang, I will accompany him, you are here, there will be pressure on Anning." ”
