I opened a tavern in Datang/Datang: My peerless talent was exposed

"Erlang, tell me about that shopkeeper Xiaozhang, how did you become a Xiaxia Xingjun?"

Apparently, Li Yuan, who also worked in the past, was also sensitively aware of the problems inside, so he rushed over in a hurry.

Li Shimin happened to be full of lawsuits, and now that Li Yuan is here, the father and son can discuss it.

So Li Shimin repeated what Hongyu and Xingben said just now, and then Li Yuan frowned and began to ponder.

However, after all, he has been the emperor for nine years, and his vision is better than that of Li Shimin. After thinking about it for a while, Li Yuan said in a deep voice,

"Erlang, don't worry about this matter, I think this matter is beneficial to Li Tang!"

Li Shimin's eyes lit up when he heard the words, what he was worried about was that he didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing for this star king to go down to earth, now that his father categorically said that it was a good thing, there must be some reason that he didn't understand.

And Hongyu and Xingben on the side also breathed a sigh of relief, especially Hongyu, she has already married into the Zhang family, if His Majesty and the Supreme Emperor really believe that her husband is a scourge, then how can there be a woman under the overthrow of the nest? Finished egg?

Li Yuan walked slowly in the hall for a few steps with his hands behind his back before saying seriously,

"First of all, shopkeeper Xiao Zhang didn't hide anything from you and me. As soon as he had the ability, he immediately asked the girl Hongyu to come over to give gifts. This is treating Erlang as a friend and treating me as an elder."

Li Shimin nodded after listening, indeed, if Shopkeeper Xiao Zhang really had some ghostly intentions to hide, there is no need to give this gift like this, so he would not be able to know.

"Secondly, this shopkeeper Zhang really has a heart for the Tang Dynasty, otherwise he would not have gone to fight against Korea. It is no joke to fight for his life on the battlefield. With his talent, in time, he will definitely ascend to the court and pay homage to the prime minister. If he really has the intention to seek power, Just wait, why bother?"

As soon as this point was mentioned, everyone nodded in agreement. It is true. If you can be a high-ranking official steadily, why bother to go to the battlefield to fight for your life? Swords have no eyes.

Li Yuan was still pacing unhurriedly, and his speech was still going on.

"Finally, I think I have some sense of people. Shopkeeper Zhang's closeness to Erlang and the queen cannot be faked. He also respects me."

"If there is someone who can act out a fake show as if it were true, and you and I, father and son, can't see it, then he deserves it!"

Li Shimin clapped his hands and laughed excitedly when he heard this.

That's right, if there is such a monster full of bad intentions but has deceived two emperors, then he really deserves the benefits!

Seeing that both His Majesty and the Supreme Emperor affirmed her husband, Hongyu finally breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, the husband has completely succeeded in crossing the tribulation this time.

Although the emperor is very suspicious, the emperor still has a characteristic that he speaks well. Unless it is a last resort, the emperor will generally not slap himself in the face. If he says that his husband can be trusted, then the two emperors will definitely give him trust.

Unless something major happens to change the current situation.Otherwise, Hongyu knows very well that her husband's position is as stable as Mount Tai.

Seeing that the matter was clarified, Li Yuan no longer entangled in Zhang Nuo's identity. Instead, he began to think about these gifts.

He casually took the watches from Concubine Yang and Concubine Yin's hands, looked at them, touched the quilt given to Li Shimin, and nodded in satisfaction.

"That's right, this kid didn't fool me. They are indeed good things. Originally, I planned to live there for a few days, and then go there after the yard is finished. Now that I see such good things, I want to go there immediately and live there for a while. !"

Seeing that Li Shimin was about to speak, Li Yuan raised his hand without haste, making Li Shimin hold back his words, then Li Yuan said slowly,

"Don't persuade me, I won't leave for the time being. There is only so much room in the shopkeeper's house, and Guanyin's servant girl has to go to recuperate. How can I still grab the yard from my daughter-in-law?"

"However, since the shopkeeper Xiao Zhang said that he will cover all the food and clothing expenses, why not leave the empress alone, and Concubine Yang and Concubine Yin can also live there for a few days."

"Anyway, he has a lot of fairy tricks, maybe he can get something back!"

Seeing Concubine Yang's and Concubine Yin's eyes suddenly brighten up, Hongyu was on the verge of crying, Husband, come and save me, a lot of people are coming to our house to eat and drink for nothing.

Chapter 94 Li Shimin's return gift

Talking about things up to this point, it's basically the same. What Li Yuan said just now was just a suggestion. Empress Changsun wanted to take care of her body and recover from her illness. Naturally, there was no other way.

But if even a few noble concubines go, what will happen in the palace?

The harem is managed by Empress Changsun and these noble concubines, especially when Empress Changsun is not around, these noble concubines have to be controlled inside and out, big and small.

However, there is no need for Li Yuan and Li Shimin to worry about these things. Empress Changsun has always been virtuous, and she will arrange these things if she wants to.

Seeing that her husband and father-in-law had finished talking about important matters, Empress Changsun smiled and asked a difficult question.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this shopkeeper Zhang has given us a great gift. According to the folk rules, we have to return the gift. I wonder what arrangements you two have?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan and Li Shimin started to take a breath at the same time, what the hell, this is a big trouble.

As I said before, the relationship between Zhang Nuo and Li Shimin is not a friendship between monarchs and ministers, but a friendship between peers, so this gift should naturally be reciprocated.

Not to mention those quilts, the watches in the hands of Empress Changsun and Concubine Yin alone can be regarded as priceless treasures, how will this gift be returned?

Otherwise, why do people say that Jiang is old and spicy? Li Shimin is still thinking about it, Li Yuan immediately said,

"Come here, go to my treasury, get a thousand taels of gold, and let the red jade girl take it back later. Shopkeeper Xiao Zhang has always been a fan of money, and this gold is the most suitable for my appetite!"

Li Shimin was taken aback, "Damn it, why didn't I expect that, although gold is valuable, you don't need to think about it, just throw it at it."

Fortunately, he had more contact with shopkeeper Xiao Zhang than his father, and even earlier than his father, so he actually forgot shopkeeper Xiao Zhang's property of being a money fan.

Now that Li Yuan gave gold, he couldn't give it away. After all, shopkeeper Xiao Zhang gave gifts separately, and his father's gift in return was his father's.

What's more, the maidservant of Guanyin had to go to Xiao Zhang's shopkeeper's house to recuperate, and he proudly said that food and clothing were all covered, so how can you be ashamed if the gift is small this time?

Especially on the day when the identities of the two of them will be revealed sooner or later, when I look back at that time, I will not be able to bury Xiao Zhang's shopkeeper's broken mouth.

Li Shimin was completely stumped, but Concubine Yang came over with a smile and said,

"Your Majesty, although my concubine and this shopkeeper Xiao Zhang have never met before, but I think this kind of strange person's hobbies are also different from ordinary people. I heard the red jade girl say that the shopkeeper Xiao Zhang wants to spread the glory of the Han family."

Concubine Yang looked at Hongyu when she said this, Hongyu nodded quickly, indeed, that's what my husband said.

Seeing Hongyu's approval, Concubine Yang smiled and continued,

"Since you want to do big things, it's not okay to live in that small courtyard. It just so happens that my sister is going to recuperate. How about His Majesty pick one of the Zhuangzi outside the city and give it to Shopkeeper Xiao Zhang?"

Li Shimin was delighted when he heard it. This idea is really good. He didn't ask other people's opinions, and said directly,

"Okay, I'm very relieved. My concubine has helped me a lot. I'm not afraid of your jokes. The little money in my internal funds was distributed from the shopkeeper Xiao Zhang. If I send it out, I will feel bad!"

Including Li Yuan, everyone laughed jokingly. Obviously, Li Shimin really cared about the money. After finally getting some money from shopkeeper Xiao Zhang, he was a little richer, so it's no wonder he was willing to take it out.

But Huangzhuang is different. To put it bluntly, this thing is the private land of the royal family. In fact, it can't earn much money throughout the year. After all, it has to show the benevolence of the royal family.

It was indeed a good time to give it to shopkeeper Xiao Zhang. On the one hand, the value of the gift was large enough. Any Huangzhuang area was not small, and all of them were good lands. Such a lot of land was no less than the thousand taels of gold given by the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan.

On the other hand, it just so happened that shopkeeper Xiao Zhang was going to build a thieves stockade, wouldn't there be a place for him now?

It's killing two birds with one stone!

Moreover, Li Shimin was thinking secretly, this shopkeeper Zhang is becoming more and more miraculous now, maybe there will be some miraculous means when he has Zhuangzi.

So, the return gift to Zhang Nuo was decided in such a joking manner.

Li Shimin has already decided that when Empress Changsun arranges the affairs in the palace tomorrow, she will take it with her when she comes to recuperate.

This joking, it has been an hour or two before I know it, and the gates of the palace and the workshop will have to be closed any later, Hongyu and Xingben naturally have to go home quickly.

Although they are all old people in the palace, their identities are different after all. One is Mrs. Ru from the Zhang family, and the other is the chief nurse of the Zhang family. Staying in the palace is also troublesome.

Hongyu and Xingben have left, but Li Yuan hasn't left yet. It's rare for a family of five to sit together today, so they might as well have a meal here.

Now Li Yuan also intends to ease the relationship between father and son, and Li Shimin is even more so.

Although Li Yuan was given to him by Zen, but no one in the world knows that he actually led troops into the palace and forced Li Yuan to abdicate abruptly?

The relationship between father and son had been tense before, and there were ups and downs outside the palace. Although Li Shimin had a great reputation and had many supporters, who would not want to have a better reputation when he was an emperor?

Now that the relationship between father and son can be slowly repaired, in his opinion, it is already the best situation.

The dinner was naturally prepared by the royal chef in the palace, and the family of five sat in the Lizheng Palace of Empress Changsun, chatting and talking about Zhang Nuo.

After all, this is a topic that few people are interested in, and Li Yuan, Li Shimin, and Empress Changsun have all come into contact with this magical shopkeeper Zhang.

Especially Li Shimin, he has the most emotion,

"I have known the shopkeeper Xiao Zhang for more than three months. From the beginning, I liked his unique skill of changing teeth, to admiring his great talent, and finally admired him for his ability to use money. It really changes every day."

"At first, I thought that shopkeeper Xiao Zhang with many abilities would be miraculous enough, but I never thought that it was actually a star king from the sky who came down to earth. Just looking at the many treasures he brought is already extraordinary."

Speaking of this, Li Shimin still chuckled, and continued to say under the puzzled eyes of everyone,

"Besides, the shopkeeper Xiao Zhang I know is not very generous. This treasure is invaluable to us. Maybe it is just an ordinary thing to shopkeeper Xiao Zhang?"

Empress Changsun was taken aback for a moment, then nodded with a smile,

"What Your Majesty said is true. I and other mortals think that this kind of treasure is the ultimate in the world, but the shopkeeper Xiao Zhang may really just grab it casually."

"However, no matter what, I still have to admit that this treasure is really a treasure that has never been seen before!"

After Empress Changsun finished speaking, Concubine Yang and Concubine Yin, who had been holding on to their watches, nodded hurriedly, joking, if anyone tells them that this is an ordinary thing at this moment, do you think they are in a hurry!

Chapter 95

Just when Hongyu and Xingben went back to her mother's house to give gifts, several unexpected guests came to Zhang's house.

When Lao Fang opened the door to welcome people in, he always felt a shiver in his calves, not because of anything else, but because these few people were too strong and scary.

It was none other than Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, and Yu Chigong. The three of them are powerful generals in the world, and they have countless dead souls under their hands. How can a good man like Lao Fang understand that battle-tested aura? of?

Especially Yu Chigong, who is astonishingly tall, not to mention big and round, and also has dark skin. When he is not smiling, he can see two big white eyeballs wandering there, which is particularly creepy.

The three of them were originally generals who commanded their own armies. It would be very difficult for them to get together if it wasn't a great court meeting and the timing was right. This time, they were only able to meet when His Majesty summoned them.

Although he had promised His Majesty that day to devote himself to the great cause of thieves, several generals at that time also happily agreed.

But after leaving the palace gate, the generals began to worry.

Why, because the head of the family is the Supreme Emperor, which is not pleasing to them. They have never been in contact with the second head, and they don't know what kind of temper and ability they have.

What if he really got into trouble in the thieves village and was hacked by the first or second master?

Your Majesty has government affairs to take care of, so naturally he won't stay in the stockade every day, and according to the rules of thieves, the head of the house has the power of life and death, and maybe the second head of the house also has it.

That day, they were urged by His Majesty, they only thought about the benefits and agreed, but after a meeting and discussion, when Qin Qiong, who was the most stable-minded, raised this question, Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong immediately broke out in cold sweat.

why?afraid!

At their current status, it can be said that they are already extremely human ministers, and there is not much room for improvement. It is nothing more than getting a few more titles for the family. In the future, not only the boss will be able to inherit the title, but the second and third will not be wronged .

It's all for the future of the children. For them, they really have nothing to pursue.

But if there is really a risk of death, then you have to think about it carefully.

After all, their big family is basically supported by themselves. If they fall, the family will basically fall.

They don't have the guts to ask His Majesty to reason with them. After all, this matter hasn't started yet. You just agreed, but then backtracked. You may think that Your Majesty is a fool.

But since His Majesty couldn't discuss it, and the Supreme Emperor and the others didn't dare to look for it, after much deliberation, it would be better to meet and communicate with the second master in advance.

If the second master is capable and a good person, then when His Majesty is not in the village, he will hang out with this second master.

But if the second boss is also a scumbag, then quickly find His Majesty to resign, even if he is scolded or beaten, it is better than dying without knowing why in the future.

As veteran soldiers who have been on the battlefield, they understand how to kill a person on the battlefield or even on the training ground for no reason, and they don't have to bear any responsibility!

It was precisely because they were full of worries that after the three of them inquired about the relevant information from Li Shimin, they came here full of worries.

Of course, with Li Shimin's entrustment,

"Whoever reveals my identity, I will kill him!"

The kind and straightforward instructions made the scalps of the three go numb. It seems that the two of them want to play the white dragon fish suit to the end.

What could be done, after all, he was not a coolie who worked for Li Tang's family. The boss had orders, so he could only follow them. So the three of them went home and changed into ordinary warrior uniforms, and took off the jade belt and Hanging ornaments, and then came to the door refreshingly.

Zhang Nuo was a little puzzled when he saw the people brought in by Lao Fang!

After his place was changed from a tavern to Zhang's Mansion, the people who came to the door were basically Lao Li and a few regular customers.

And the regular customers didn't come here often after knowing that the tavern had been moved to the East Market and West Market, so the only ones who could really visit were Lao Li's family. Where did these reckless people come from.

When they were outside, the three of them acted together, and Cheng Yaojin was usually the one who spoke, mainly because his idiot-like smile and generous words were the most likely to confuse people, and his mind was also the most flexible.

So Cheng Yaojin cupped his hands and said,

"It's good to be the head of the house. My surname is Cheng. The head of the family can be named Cheng Da. This is Qin Er, and this is Yuchi. We are here to join you at the order of Shopkeeper Li!"

Zhang Nuo frowned and smiled!

Yo, I didn't expect Lao Li to move so fast. It's only been a few days, and the little boss has been brought here. It seems that he really wants to make money.

Since he was a future subordinate, Zhang Nuo naturally couldn't put on airs anymore, he smiled and let people sit down, and told Lao Fang to prepare food, so he planned to chat while eating.

This is actually something that Zhang Nuo has gradually gotten used to. During the Tang Dynasty, there were not many supplies, and there were not many snacks and snacks. If you don’t bring something out to entertain, it seems unenthusiastic and stingy. You can take it, but it’s really nothing easy to get.

Therefore, as long as someone comes and comes to have a serious talk, then serve the wine and food directly, regardless of whether you have a meal or not, first serve and then talk, chat while eating and drinking.

In the kitchen, the two cooks are already doing pretty well, and Zhang Nuo can basically cook the food, but for Cheng Yaojin and the three idiots, it is absolutely delicious.
