At the beginning, he will be divided by five horses of Tang Taizong

"This is also impossible!"

Cheng Yaojin's house

He detained Cheng Chumo at home and didn't let him go out.

"Father, you asked me to go out and kill those beasts, and even tampered with the price of salt, it's like pigs and dogs." Cheng Chumo said angrily.

Since walking with Qin Shou, no matter how Qin Shou treats him, he has already regarded Qin Shou as a teacher and friend, so when he heard that the family was making a fuss about salt, he lost his temper The son came up.

"shut up!"

Cheng Yaojin slapped him on the head, and couldn't help complaining, "What the hell, this guy is too courageous, how dare he kill someone from a wealthy family like this in Chang'an?"

At this time, he was also speechless, or a little helpless.

It's fine if you killed 46 of Guan Long's children in the military camp, but if you still kill like this in Chang'an, it's no wonder that nothing happened. Recalling that scene at that time, his heart trembled.

Frightened!

Cheng Yaojin thought for a while, then kicked Cheng Chumo, "You dog, just stay at home and I'll go to His Majesty again to see if I can intercede for him."

"If you're causing trouble, you're not saving Qin Shou, but harming him, understand?"

Cheng Chumo nodded, his eyes rolled.

The reason why he made such a fuss was because he wanted his father to go to His Majesty to intercede. Now that his goal has been achieved, naturally there will be no more troubles.

Needless to say, following Qin Shou, his brain also opened up.

Cheng Yaojin didn't go directly to the palace, but went to Fang Xuanling's mansion, and then the two found Wei Zheng, and then drove to the palace.

The reason why they were looking for them was because Fang Xuanling was the same as himself, Fang Yiai married a woman from the Su family because of Qin Shou's promotion, and Wei Zheng was even a niece who had an affair with Qin Shou.

On the road

Cheng Yaojin asked Fang Xuanling, "Fang Xiang, do you think this matter is slow? I have no idea!"

Fang Xuanling sighed: "Let's go and see what His Majesty means first. To be honest, I also have a headache. Why do you think this happened?"

Both of them looked at Wei Zheng, "Master Wei, is there anything else we don't know?"

But seeing that Wei Zheng didn't speak, his eyes were a little red, hey, my niece has a bad life!

Inside the Temple of Manna

Qin Shou was eating with chopsticks in his hand.

Qin Shou ate a few mouthfuls of vegetables, and then picked up a bowl and drank a few mouthfuls of soup. The commotion outside was turned upside down. No one would have thought that this guy was not only fine, but also so nourishing.

"Father-in-law, now your imperial meal is no worse than mine!"

Li Shimin rolled his eyes at him, "Hurry up and eat yours!"

When Qin Shou was almost finished eating, Li Shimin looked at Qin Shou with burning eyes again, "It's really like what you said, they did it on the salt!"

Li Shimin reacted like this because Qin Shou told him that the aristocratic and wealthy families would definitely tamper with salt, and this is a good opportunity for their salt to go public.

Qin Shou nodded, "Just in time, taking advantage of the opportunity of their wanton price hikes, let's just enter."

The table salt mined and precipitated in the halite mines has been hoarding and has not been put into the market. I think that after the beginning of spring, I can choose a good and auspicious day to open the business.

Didn't you raise the price?Bullying the market?

Not to mention the price increase, even if there is no supply, you take the initiative to vacate the market, which is just convenient for us to enter.

In the salt business, the royal family of the Li family holds a large share, so Li Shimin inevitably asked some more details.

When the chat was over, Li Shimin suddenly said, "Gambling is banned in the Tang Dynasty. When will you hand over the more than 150 million yuan you gambled?"

"Father-in-law, why are you such a money fanatic?"

Qin Shou's face turned dark immediately.

Looking at his father-in-law's face, he pursed his lips, "Father-in-law, do you think this is okay? The 150 million yuan is useless in your hands now, can I give you interest?"

Li Shimin frowned, "What is interest?"

"The interest is, that is, I use your 100 million guan, and at the end of the year, I will give you 110 million guan, and the extra [-] guan, this is called interest."

"Look, when the time comes, you can get another one hundred thousand coins, so why not do it?"

Nancheng was short of money, so I had to fool my father-in-law into letting him put the money in my hands.

An extra [-] guan?

Li Shimin felt itchy when he heard it, but when he thought about it, he felt something was wrong. There is such a good thing?

Qin Shou didn't speak, just picked up the chopsticks and took another bite of the food. At this time, he couldn't be too active, otherwise he would give his father-in-law the illusion that he was plotting against him.

thinking

The eunuch came in and said, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Fang, Lord Lu Guogong, and Lord Wei Zheng are here to see you!"

"Let them in!"

When the three of them came in, they happened to see Qin Shou eating with chopsticks, and his expression was suddenly in a daze.

Hey!

what's the situation?

It's a mess outside, are you eating and drinking here?Talking and laughing with His Majesty?

What about trouble?

Chapter 291

Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and Cheng Yaojin looked at His Majesty and Qin Shou dully, forgetting which one to move forward.

"Why are you standing there? What do you want me to do?"

Li Shimin was still thinking about the so-called interest just now, and didn't pay attention to these details. When he recovered, he couldn't help being a little surprised.

"Your Majesty... what is this?" Fang Xuanling looked at Li Shimin, and then turned to Qin Shou.

"Oh, tell me about this!" Li Shimin suddenly realized, smiled and shook his head and said, "Let Qin Shou tell you about this."

Qin Shou scratched his head, and slowly told Fang Xuanling and the others about the matter of salt, "President Fang, after His Majesty came back, I made a bet with His Majesty that they might try to tamper with the salt. Sure enough... …”

After Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and Cheng Yaojin listened, their eyes widened in shock.

You actually expected this a long time ago?

Immediately, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng looked at each other, their hearts flooded.

Rock salt?

I said why it was rumored that halite mines can produce refined salt, but in the end it was nothing. It has been in production, but it has not been shipped, and it has been hoarded so far. Isn’t it just for this moment?

The three turned their heads to look at Qin Shou again with surprised eyes, with complicated expressions.

Seeing their strange expressions, Qin Shou nodded towards them without knowing why.

But in the eyes of Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and Cheng Yaojin, it has a different meaning: Sure enough, they planned all this long ago, this guy is really a monster.

The scene was a little weird for a while.

"By the way, you haven't said why you came to see me?" Li Shimin asked with a cough.

"No....nothing!"

The three replied in unison, and looked at His Majesty with a strange look in their eyes.

The meaning of treating Qin Shou like this made them feel excited, and their attitude towards the noble family can be imagined.

Li Shimin knocked on the table and pushed a genealogy book on it in front of the three of them, "The revised version of the Zhenguan clan annals is out, do you want to take a look too?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The three of them opened it, but after seeing it for the first time, their expressions were shocked.

"Gudu!"

The three people's Adam's apple rolled, and on the first page, the Li family ranked first, Tang Taizong's maternal relatives ranked second, and the Boling Cui family ranked third...

You know, in the fifth year of Zhenguan, when the minister compiled the genealogy of the great family, Gao Shilian, the editor-in-chief, ranked the Cui family of Boling as the first, and the Cui family of Qinghe, the Lu family of Fanyang, the Zheng family of Xingyang, and the Wang family of Taiyuan. Wait, the Li family is the third class.

At this moment, Fang Xuanling and the three became more determined in their beliefs.

For a long time, the five surnames Qiwang "relying on their family prestige, ashamed to marry other surnames, and arrogantly carried out internal intermarriage in order to maintain the noble blood, but the ministers of the court and the central government all regarded themselves or their children as being able to marry the noble families. Rong, even Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and Cheng Yaojin are no exception.

But at this moment, the hearts of the three of them suddenly cast a shadow.

"Your Majesty, if there is nothing wrong, I will go back!"

Qin Shou got up and saluted, ready to say goodbye.

"The minister also resigns!"

"minister......"

The three of Fang Xuanling also hurriedly saluted.

Li Shimin raised his hand and opened his mouth to let everyone leave when he suddenly remembered something, "Shouer, how did you win that 150 million yuan?"

"Uh..." Qin Shou's head was full of black lines.

Father-in-law's curiosity is really... speechless.

Qin Shou: "That's a trick!"

Li Shimin looked at Qin Shou with fiery eyes, obviously not getting an answer, and was not ready to give up.

Ok?

The three of Fang Xuanling who originally planned to leave early did not say they left, and all looked at Qin Shou.

Qin Shou said helplessly, "If you really want to see it, I'll give you a performance."

Xiao Qiu still had it with him, so he gestured to the eunuch, "Help find two quiet bowls and a chopstick."

when everything is ready

Qin Shou said: "You see, these are three small balls, one is covered with two bowls, and I still have one in my hand."

Qin Shou said to the other bowl, "Come in!"

"Come on, open it!"

The boss who stared at Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling and others suddenly

"This......"

"How did it become two balls?"

Qin Shou continued: "Didn't see it? That's ok, cover it again, pass..."

The four monarchs and ministers stared at the bowl on the table closely, and could not see anything unusual.

At this moment, Qin Shou lifted the bowl just now again.

At this time, the two balls below became three.

three?

Quiet, tedious silence.

The whole audience was silent for several seconds, and the monarch and his subjects were as stunned as if they were logs.

Li Shimin was dumbfounded, "Wait a minute, let me take a look at this bowl."

"This bowl was provided by your people, you can look at it as you like."

Li Shimin read it carefully, scratched his head, "Do it again"

Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, and Cheng Yaojin were also completely messed up at this time.

His eyes were red and he didn't dare to blink, for fear of missing something.

They looked closely, but still couldn't see it.

people are stupid

"Okay, I'll do it again!"

Qin Shou hits a ball again with a bowl...
