Li Shimin looked at the pair of daughters with a smile. Seeing that Li Lizhi's complexion had recovered a lot recently, he nodded secretly.
"Linchuan, last time I asked you to find the ten packs of spicy strips that Jinyan wanted, how is it?"
"Well," Li Mengjiang said in a low voice, not daring to lie, "Brother Zhou said he would keep the money from the sale and not give it to father."
Li Shimin's face darkened immediately, "Would this bastard not give it?"
Li Lizhi secretly glanced at Li Mengjiang, then at Li Shimin, but said nothing.
"Well, if I want it, he just says he won't give it to me. There's not much to say, and he wants to sell it for money."
"Does he still want to marry..."
Li Shimin hurriedly shut up, glanced at Empress Changsun, frowned and said, "My boy, I've raised him for so many years for nothing, and I can't even part with a few packets of spicy sticks."
The two women looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to speak.
Empress Changsun ordered a few words in a low voice, and a servant left quickly.
"Your Majesty, don't be angry. I'll invite him to see why he doesn't give it."
Li Shimin nodded, if Wei Zheng and others don't give it, it's fine, you, a bastard I have raised for more than ten years, are so stingy.
Can you bear it?
Lesson must be taught!
Li Lizhi whispered: "Father seems to be really angry, can Big Brother Zhou handle it?"
"He is so confident, I want to see what he has to rely on." Li Mengjiang felt angry when he thought of Zhou Jinyan's tone at that time.
Li Shimin couldn't hold back his face, and was about to change the topic, when he suddenly saw the Happy Chair behind them still dangling.
"What is this?" Li Shimin walked over, "It looks like a deck chair."
Li Mengjiang hurriedly said: "Father, this is an upgraded version of the reclining chair, called the Happy Chair, and it was made by Brother Zhou at home."
"Bastard, don't do business properly at home. He did what these craftsmen did?"
It's okay to sell things, but he is still obsessed with making things, Li Shimin is very angry.
He patted his buttocks, although Li Shimin was startled even though he had seen it dangling back and forth.
Just as he was about to get up, the leisure chair shook again, and during the shaking, all the muscles in his body relaxed.
Li Lizhi whispered: "Father, are you comfortable?"
"Well, it's pretty good." Li Shimin swayed back and forth, feeling a hundred times more comfortable than kneeling.
"Empress, come and have a seat." Li Shimin felt comfortable for a while, and hurriedly stood up, allowing the curious eldest grandson to sit down.
"Be careful." Li Lizhi and Li Mengjiang stepped forward to stabilize the Xiaoyao chair, and waited for Empress Changsun to lie on it before gently shaking it.
"Mother, how do you feel?" Li Lizhi asked in a low voice.
"That's right, lying on it can make people feel less tired." Empress Changsun closed her phoenix eyes, "This leisure chair can make people feel comfortable without lying down, and it is also very delicately made. Did that kid from the Zhou family do it?"
Li Shimin was also very curious.
How many days has it been since Zhou Jinyan went back?
Just become such a carpenter?
"That's right," Li Lizhi hurriedly said, "Brother Zhou is good at everything, and he made this happy chair."
Li Shimin and Empress Changsun didn't believe it, but they didn't say much.
The two talked for a while and left.
Back in the side hall, just as Li Shimin and Empress Changsun sat down, the servant said, "Zhou Jinyan is here."
"Announce him to come in." Li Shimin was kneeling on the ground at this moment, his mind was full of the dangling scene just now.
"Guanyin maidservant, turn around and ask Jinyan to send two happy chairs into the palace."
Empress Changsun smiled slightly, nodded in response, got up and said: "I still have some things to do, so I'm leaving now."
Li Shimin froze for a moment, then nodded.With a smile, he watched Empress Changsun leave.
As soon as Zhou Jinyan entered, he saw Li Shimin looking at him unkindly.
"Your Majesty, who made you angry?"
Chapter 39
Li Shimin was instantly amused by him, and half of his anger subsided: "Jinyan, I heard that you got some delicious food recently, right?"
"Oh, Your Majesty is talking about spicy noodles, right?"
Zhou Jinyan shook his head and said, "It's just so delicious. I guess His Majesty might not like it, so I didn't give it to His Majesty."
Before Li Shimin could speak, he said again: "Your Majesty, what about my marriage with Princess Changle?"
Li Shimin was depressed for a while, and said in a bad mood: "What to do, what to do, wait until you cure Keming's illness."
Zhou Jinyan said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, when you said that I had won Changsun Chong in the hall and made all the officials support me, you married Changle to me."
He rubbed his hands, "Your Majesty, do you see this?"
"One matter is one matter," Li Shimin said with a stern face, "Although you won the elder Sun Chong, you also made others half dead, this matter does not count."
Sure enough, the official characters have two mouths, the upper and lower are mouths.
Zhou Jinyan was speechless: "Then if I cure Cai Guogong, will Princess Changle marry me?"
"Wait until you are cured."
Zhou Jinyan thought that his guess was right, this Li Er丨 is not a good bird.
Li Shimin changed the subject and said, "I heard that you sold a spicy stick for ten pennies?"
"Return to Your Majesty, it is indeed so."
"I didn't expect you to be a big profiteer." Li Shimin scolded with a smile, "The biggest profiteer I've ever seen is you."
"Your Majesty, it is said that my father has a lot of salary, but the family is really poor. I don't want to make any money. In the future, Princess Changle will have no money to support her."
Li Shimin was indignant, "Bring me ten packs of your spicy strips, and I want to see how your spicy strips are worth hundreds of packs."
"All that can be sold are sold out, there are not many left, and they are all reserved for Changle in the future."
Li Shimin wanted to get angry, but he didn't know how to do it.
Taking a deep breath, Li Shimin said, "Tell me honestly, how many packs of that spicy strips do you have left?"
"Return to Your Majesty, a total of six packs!"
Zhou Jinyan wrung his fingers, "I'm going to give one pack to my father, two packs to Changle, and one pack for myself."
"Then there are two packs left?"
Li Shimin thought to himself that he is the majestic emperor, so why don't you give the remaining two bags to yourself?
"Ahem," Zhou Jinyan said, "I plan to leave the remaining two bags to my future father-in-law. I think my father-in-law will like such a rare thing."
Before Li Shimin could get angry, Zhou Jinyan took out the spicy stick bag from his pocket and pulled out the only stick inside.
"Your Majesty, there are only so many private goods available now. Try it."
Li Shimin didn't want to take it, but he really couldn't bear the temptation of the spicy sticks, so he took it and ate it in small bites.
Zhou Jinyan watched with a smile, he was certain that Li Shimin would not get angry with him because of such a trivial matter.
Looking at the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, like a child, chomping on the spicy strips, that satisfied look...
Zhou Jinyan suddenly felt that the emperor was really pitiful.
Li Shimin was satisfied, the more he ate the spicy strips, the more delicious he was.
Glancing at Zhou Jinyan, he frowned and said, "I heard that you got the Happy Chair?"
"Return to Your Majesty, there is such a thing."
"Send two to the palace."
Li Shimin said: "Lying down is quite comfortable."
Zhou Jinyan wanted not to give it to him, but it was enough to toss about the spicy strips. If he came to the reclining chair, if it caused Li Er's violent temper, the gain would outweigh the loss.
Besides, reclining chairs are sold in Xuanpingfang, and they are not as rare as spicy noodles.
Nod now.
After all, the spicy strips were finished, Li Shimin looked at the chili and spicy strips juice sticking to his fingers, moved his tongue, and glanced at Zhou Jinyan.
"Clap!"
Zhou Jinyan let a packet of spicy strips fall out of his sleeve at the right time.
Li Shimin's eyes widened suddenly, this kid also brought a bag?
"Ahem," Zhou Jinyan hurriedly picked it up and put it in his sleeve, "Does Your Majesty have anything else to do? I'm going to visit Cai Guogong today and treat him."
Li Shimin looked away reluctantly, when the servant suddenly said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Queen has fainted."
"what?"
Li Shimin was taken aback, he had already stood up and rushed out.
Zhou Jinyan was startled, shook his head, took out the bag of spicy sticks from his sleeve, put it on the table, turned and walked towards Fengyang Pavilion.
"Physician Wang, how is my Guanyin servant girl?" Li Shimin rushed to the harem in a hurry.
"Return to Your Majesty, Her Royal Highness has been diagnosed, and there is no serious problem."
Physician Wang stood up and bowed.
Li Shimin heaved a sigh of relief and waved his hands to let them back down.
Imperial Physician Wang hesitated and said, "Your Majesty, let Her Majesty the Queen rest as much as possible."
"I know."
After a while, Li Shimin walked out of Empress Changsun's room, feeling a little dazed.
Empress Changsun's illness was a long time ago, but it was not too serious. The sudden fainting this time made Li Shimin feel worried for a while.
"I hope it's okay." Li Shimin thought about it and turned to Sun Simiao to have a look.
Turning back to Piandian in a blink of an eye, when he looked up, he saw a whole pack of spicy strips on the table...
Zhou Jinyan couldn't go to Fengyang Pavilion.
The maid at the door refused to let him in.
He couldn't, so he had to go back home.
Back at the mansion, Zhou Jinyan continued to do what he was supposed to do, earning a lot of money.
He is not too worried about Changle.
Li Er still has not made up his mind to marry Changle to him, but it is impossible to say that he will marry the Changsun's family.
What he has to do now is to make a name for himself.
Use the bronze ring in your hand to make a lot of money.At the same time build your own reputation.
With the deliberate push, Datang's first furniture store, and Datang's first printing shop.
Soon it became popular in Chang'an.
Early in the morning, many people in Xuanpingfang got up early and lined up at the entrance of Datang No. [-] Furniture Store.
"Hey, Wang Er, didn't you buy the Happy Chair yesterday? Why are you here to buy it today?"
"This thing is comfortable to lie down on. I want to buy two more and send it to relatives."
The man nodded and said: "Yesterday, all the happy chairs were sent to the palace, and now they are in the limelight in Chang'an. Many people want to buy some as gifts."
"It's more than that." Wang Er said in a low voice: "There are still many who want to save some and sell them to other places at a high price."
"Let's just make money in this half a month. After a while, the imitation Happy Chair will come out. At that time, it will not be rare."
