"Duke Wei, Minister Wu, what do you think should be appropriate?"

His Majesty the Emperor looked at Duke Wei and Minister Wu who were deeply regretting their actions.

"Your Majesty, I can't bring out that many gold cakes. I can only have six hundred gold cakes at most!"

Wu Junxian kowtowed to the emperor and said miserably.

It's all the fault of this old guy, Duke Wei. Why are you dragging me along to take revenge on the Marquis of Zhenbei?

Now I'm going to bleed heavily too! Especially my daughter’s more than a thousand gold cakes! Next time, even if you beat me to death, I won’t get involved in the grudge between you and the Marquis of Zhenbei!

"Your Majesty, I can only take up to seven hundred gold cakes."

Duke Wei seemed to have accepted his fate, but the corners of his eyes and brows were filled with resentment towards Chu Feng. This little bastard was so damn good at causing trouble!

"Okay, Marquis of Zhenbei, you have to be merciful and merciful. After all, you, Duke Wei and Wu Shilang are all my beloveds. Just compensate them as they said and let go of your anger."

As His Majesty the Emperor spoke, he looked at Chu Feng and said softly: "Feng'er, please also advise your father."

"Dad, just let go of your anger. At most, let them apologize to you."

Chu Feng stood up, looked at his father and said loudly.

Marquis Zhenbei had gold cakes in his account, and he had already lost his anger. But when he heard his son's words, his eyes suddenly lit up and he snorted: "Then let them apologize to me!"

Duke Wei Guo and Wu Junxian were so angry that they looked at you and saw a broken bookcase. Not only did they pay you hundreds of gold cakes, they also apologized to you. Why don't they flatter you to death? But he saw that everyone's eyes were on him, as if they were waiting for him to apologize. Especially His Majesty’s eyes were shining brightly.

Duke Wei sighed inwardly and said to the Marquis of Zhenbei: "I'm sorry, Marquis of Zhenbei."

Wu Junxian's apology is even more sincere.

Finally, Zhenbei Hou seemed to reluctantly agree. He looked at Wei Guogong and Wu Shilang and said in a deep voice: "For the sake of my son's face, I will bypass you two old men! Remember: count the gold cakes tomorrow and give them away." When we get to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, even one less one will do!"

Duke Wei felt a stinging pain in his heart and almost spit out a mouthful of blood. He had actually been blackmailed by this reckless man!

"Did you see? Chu Feng is much smarter than you think. Even Duke Wei was set up by him!" The graceful queen in the big tent looked at Chu Feng's face through the gap in the curtain with her beautiful eyes. Said with a chuckle. It’s exactly like a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law!

"Humph, he is just a cunning and cunning scoundrel!"

Princess Zhaoyang didn't see the queen's expression and said angrily.

"Zhaoyang, do you want to marry a prince-in-law who is as stupid as an ox? Li Hui, whom you admire the most, was so angry that he vomited blood. Duke Wei, who had been in officialdom for many years, was fooled by him. With such a talent, you If you don’t know how to cherish it, you, the daughter of your mother-in-law, will be watching eagerly!"

Although the queen's words were gentle, Zhaoyang did not refute this time. Although he was really resentful of Chu Feng, he still saw his talent.

However, every time I think of him pinching open his little mouth and spitting into it, my heart itch with hatred!

"Why don't you say anything? In fact, you only have the chance to vent your anger after making him your consort."

The queen said with a chuckle, recalling the scenes of Yunying's fights with His Majesty the Emperor and the Marquis of Zhenbei when she was not married, and she felt happy again.

"The Queen Mother is right!" Zhaoyang nodded seriously and said in his heart: "Smelly Prince Consort, just wait, I will let you know how powerful I am!"

Unknowingly, Zhaoyang still regarded Chu Feng as his consort. In fact, in her opinion, as long as her father and mother agree on something, it is a certainty!

at dusk.

Marquis Pingnan, Marquis Zhenbei and his wife, as well as Chu Feng, were drinking in the hall. Although there were several generals who wanted to come over to celebrate together, they did not dare to come because of His Majesty's suspicion!

At this time, Chu Feng wanted to leave quietly. After all, he still had things to do.

That is to reward Shuang'er for her protective efforts!

Hehe, Yue'er and Xue'er must not let go, they want to kiss each other to the fullest! They agreed before the duel with Li Hui that once they won, they would let them kiss each other!

It's a pity that at this time, Ping Nanhou was dragging him to ask questions, and he actually knew about the refined salt!

"Boy, tell your uncle honestly, have you always pretended to be stupid and deliberately deceived your uncle? Otherwise, how could you have come up with such wonderful things as horseshoes and stirrups, and that kind of pure salt? How did you come up with it? Did you make it? You can't just make Zhenbei Mansion rich, if you have money... everyone will make it!"

Marquis Pingnan was probably too drunk, his face was red, and it was difficult to speak.

Chu Feng was not angry at all when faced with Ping Nanhou's inquiry. Marquis Pingnan and his father are sworn friends, brothers in life and death!

In the memory of the original owner, King Pingnan beat him frequently. However, he also quietly wiped his butt a lot!

Sure enough, before Chu Feng could speak, the Marquis of Zhenbei smiled proudly and said, "Haha, in the past, Old Chen, you always showed off in front of me that you have two good sons. Now you also envy my son, right? To be honest. , this salt business is really profitable. In the past two or three days alone, I have earned several hundred gold cakes! Let’s do this, ask your younger siblings to send someone over tomorrow.”

Zhenbeihou laughed proudly.

The woman next to him was so angry that she used her little hands to twist his waist hard. Unexpectedly, the Marquis of Zhenbei looked at Madam and asked loudly: "Madam, why are you trying to trouble me?"

"Brothers and sisters, don't get me wrong. My eldest brother is just asking about the salt business for others. Do you know that the refined salt business has already made the nobles in the palace jealous? To tell you the truth, not only the concubines are interested, but even His Majesty is interested. We all asked about this quietly. The main treasury is too poor! Do you understand?"

Chu Feng was stunned by Ping Nanhou's words, and then he looked at his mother and whispered: "Mom, it seems that this salt business won't last long, so I'd better leave it to the palace. However, you can ask for some profits. .”

"Hmph, if the slave family doesn't pay, how can Li Laoer still rob me openly? He is still the emperor!"

The usually gentle lady was also a little angry. But I was glad in my heart that I didn't marry into the palace back then. It turns out that being a royal concubine is so poor! He is also jealous of his minister’s business!

"Mom, there are many children in such a simple and profitable business. Mom, you just donated the method of making salt. Let everyone see how loyal our family is to serving the country."

As Chu Feng was talking, he suddenly saw Marquis Pingnan looking at him eagerly, and couldn't help but say: "Uncle, my nephew will also recruit you to make money together!"

"Haha, uncle knows that he has loved you a lot in the past!"

Ping Nanhou said with a smile. He stretched out his hand and patted Chu Feng on the shoulder. The pain made Chu Feng grimace!

Chu Feng was speechless for a while, you beat me up many times before! It really hurts!
