Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

With a wry smile, Chu Mo bowed to Concubine Yang again.

Then he asked: "So according to Sister Yang's opinion, what should I do now?"

Concubine Yang pondered for a moment and said: "Originally, I just thought you had some big business this time and wouldn't let Li Er join in, but now it seems that I still underestimate you."

"However, since you have negotiated terms with Li Shimin before, let's continue the negotiation as you planned before."

"Of course, if you have any other ideas or plans now, then I advise you to slow down for a while."

"After all, you have now touched Li Er's bottom line. If one of you is not good, he will ask for help from the person in Tai Chi Palace. There is no way..."

Concubine Yang did not finish what she said later, but both of them understood that forcing Li Shimin to a desperate situation would not be good for anyone.

Nodding, Chu Mo said to Concubine Yang: "Since Sister Yang has told me to stop as soon as possible, then I will do it according to Sister Yang's wishes."

"It's just that if you come here today, Li Shimin will tell you where to give me a piece of land?"

Concubine Yang twitched her lips, then pointed to a brocade box on the table and said, "There is a map in it. Open it and take a look."

Seeing the strange look on the other party's face, Chu Mo knew it was definitely not a good place.

But now, he couldn't help but accept it. He took the brocade box, opened it, and took out the map.

As soon as the map was opened, the words "Kanyu Map of the Whole Lingnan Territory" were written on it.

In the middle of the map, there is an area circled with a red cinnabar pen.

Looking at the map, Chu Mo looked at Concubine Yang with an ugly expression.

Concubine Yang nodded noncommittally: "This is the fiefdom His Majesty gave you. As for whether it is worth 3000 million taels, that is a matter between you and him."

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Chu Mo took the map and asked, "Concubine Yang, do you know where the final bottom line is for His Majesty the Emperor?"

Concubine Yang snorted: "Why, this matter was not my idea, and you are angry now? You don't even call me sister?"

Chu Mo was stunned and was about to say a few words of defense.

Yang Hongyu on the side took advantage of the situation and said: "Sister Yang, he is a dog-faced person. If we follow his will, then we are the closest people to him. If we go against his will, then he will not even give in." You're taking advantage of me, you little guy."

After saying that, he didn't forget to roll his eyes at Chu Mo.

Seeing that his wife was starting to make plans for him, Chu Mo hurriedly explained: "No, my wife, then..."

Before he finished speaking, Concubine Yang on the side sneered again and again: "What, Chu Mo, are you looking down on me? Call me Hongyu and call me a lady, call me Concubine Yang, you are going to be separated from me. ah?"

With that said, he snatched the map from Chu Mo's hand and pointed downstairs.

Then, he snorted coldly and said: "Since you don't want to see me, then I will go back and report to His Majesty Emperor Ming and ask him to come and talk to you in person."

After saying that, he nodded slightly to Yang Hongyu and then went downstairs.

When he passed by Wang Dehai, he had already woken up and was lying there with a face of pain and his lips tightly closed.

Concubine Yang was not polite. She kicked Wang Dehai lightly with her lotus feet and said, "If you can still breathe, then go back with me."

Wang Dehai struggled on the ground twice with a painful look on his face. Finally, he was unable to get up. Then he confessed to Concubine Yang:

"Concubine Yang, this servant really can't get up. Please send two people to get this servant back."

Concubine Yang glanced at Wang Dehai with disgust, and then left without looking back.

Looking at Concubine Yang's leaving figure, and then at the half-dead Wang Dehai on the ground, Chu Mo instantly understood that Concubine Yang was deliberately using the topic to let Wang Dehai tell Li Shimin that the negotiations with him were not going well.

After secretly giving Yang Fei a thumbs up, Chu Mo smiled slightly at Yang Hongyu and said, "Madam, if my fiefdom is really in Lingnan, will you go there with me?"

Yang Hongyu glanced at Chu Mo and said coldly: "Whoever wants to go to that kind of ghost place, I won't accompany you to be a savage there."

With that said, he turned away and left.

Seeing Yang Hongyu's reaction, Chu Mo touched his nose in confusion.

Immediately, Shopkeeper Liu was called to ask about the situation in Lingnan.

In Chu Mo's understanding, Lingnan should belong to parts of Guangdong, Hainan, Guangxi, eastern Yunnan, and southwestern Fujian.

In later generations, it can be said to be a geomantic treasure.

But when I saw Concubine Yang’s expression just now, why did she look like she was gloating about her misfortune?

Shopkeeper Liu also looked confused when he heard Chu Mo asking about Lingnan:

"Uncle, please ask what you are doing there, it is not a good place."

"The rivers there are extremely complicated, with tributaries everywhere; the roads diverge in all directions, making it difficult for people to distinguish between east, west, north and south, and it's especially easy to get lost."

"Besides that, there's a lot of rain there and the trees are thick, making the streams below us darker than usual."

"That's all. If you get familiar with it for a while, you might be able to survive. But the most despairing thing is that the place is full of poisonous fog and filled with snakes and insects. It's not a bad idea to call it a wilderness."

Hearing what Shopkeeper Liu said, Chu Mo was stunned for a moment, and then asked doubtfully: "Then according to what you said, if you go there, wouldn't it be a dead end?"

Shopkeeper Liu nodded with certainty and said, "Yes, uncle, except for those who are exiled every year, almost no outsiders will set foot there."

"Uncle, what are you asking about those places? Is there someone you don't like and want to throw them there?"

Chu Mo glanced at Shopkeeper Liu with a gloomy face. He didn't say that Li Shimin wanted to reward him there, but just said a few words and sent him away.

After learning about the current situation in Lingnan from Shopkeeper Liu, Chu Mo's heart began to beat.

It is true that you want to develop, but the prerequisite for development is that there must be potential and space for development.

According to Shopkeeper Liu, not only is it not a good place for development, it is even a place of death with a narrow escape.

Li Shimin gave this place to himself, which shows his evil intentions.

Although his fear of Li Shimin increased several times after listening to Concubine Yang's words, it did not affect Chu Mo's determination to cause some trouble for him.

After thinking for a while, Chu Mo went directly downstairs and walked towards Zuixiao Tower opposite.

The moment Chu Mo stepped out of Shiweitian and headed to Zuixiao Tower, a white figure followed behind him.

Ever since she suspected that Chu Mo was hiding his beauty in a golden house behind her back, Yang Hongyu had made up her mind to reveal Chu Mo's true face.

Now she finally waited until the other party went to have a tryst with his mistress. No matter what, Yang Hongyu had to follow him to see what this shameless person who took advantage of the opportunity looked like.
