"Your Highness, do you want to stay in Chang'an?"
The two hugged each other for a while, and Chen Shuozhen suddenly said.
think!
Why don't you want to?
It is good to be the king and hegemon in a fiefdom, but in the end it will be controlled by others.
But these words cannot be said...
Even if Chen Shuo is really his woman!
Li Ke still remained wary.
"Your Highness, the best way to stay in Chang'an is..."
"Take Wei Shuyu's business department away!"
"The Ministry of Commerce is now in its infancy. As long as you lead the Ministry of Commerce, you can legitimately stay in Chang'an..."
Chen Shuozhen's brilliant eyes flashed with a fierce look.
When looking at Li Kezhi, it turned into tenderness again.
"No one else in Wei Shuyu's business department can lead it..." Li Ke said with a smile.
"OK."
Chen Shuozhen nodded firmly: "As long as he dies."
Li Ke frowned.
But he didn't say much.
While Huangtu Hegemony is talking and laughing, it doesn't matter if someone dies.
"Don't be ridiculous."
Li Ke smiled on his face and said: "If Wei Shuyu dies, Wei Zheng, my father, my grandfather, etc. will definitely investigate closely and there will be no way to escape."
"And you underestimate the civil and military officials too much..."
"The existence of the Ministry of Commerce has already affected the interests of many officials."
"Once Wei Shuyu dies, even I, the king, will not be able to hold on to the situation!"
The benefits contained in the Ministry of Commerce are too huge.
Li Shimin trusted the Wei family, so he handed the matter over to Wei Shuyu.
Others...Li Shimin didn't believe anyone.
Once officials get together to commit corruption, the accumulated wealth will be enough to threaten his rule.
"Your Highness misunderstood."
Chen Shuozhen said skillfully: "Zhen'er didn't mean that Wei Shuyu must be killed."
"We can use other methods to take over the Ministry of Commerce!"
Um?
Li Ke looked at Chen Shuozhen in his arms, showing a confused expression.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, just leave this matter to Zhen'er."
Chen Shuozhen smiled and replied: "But you have to give Zhen'er some support."
Li Ke didn't reply.
If he could really capture the Ministry of Commerce, he could settle near Chang'an.
As long as you stay in Chang'an, you may win the throne!
"We won't discuss this in advance."
A lustful smile appeared on Li Ke's face: "It's getting dark, isn't it time to go to bed?"
The next day.
Wei Mansion.
"Wei Shuyu, Wei Shuyu..."
Wu Qiqi lifted up her skirt and ran into the Wei Mansion, just like her own.
Well……
Wei Shuyu scratched his head.
The sun comes out in the west?
The one who called me today was not Xiaojiji...
Could it be that you were scared because I beat you yesterday?
Um.
I am still too merciful, and I was too lenient yesterday...
"How did you come?"
Wei Shuyu opened the door and saw Wu Qiqi standing at the door carrying a small cloth bag.
"It's not good..."
"The King of Shu is back, and I feel like he wants to deal with you."
With that said, Wu Qiqi handed Wei Shuyu a green onion pancake: "Would you like to eat it?"
Wei Shuyu took it and took a bite.
It tastes weird.
"Where did you get this bread?"
"Oh, this..."
Wu Qiqi said sheepishly: "I learned it from the royal chef in the palace yesterday."
"..."
Wei Shuyu's eyes twitched.
I just said that the reason why this cake is salty yet sweet is because it was made by you.
"What, isn't it delicious?"
Wu Qiqi blinked his big innocent eyes.
"Alright."
Wei Shuyu hesitated, but still didn't tell the truth.
"Then why don't you eat?"
"I plan to leave it to Little Jiji and the others."
"Why?"
"I beat him yesterday to make it up to him."
"Oh, that's how it is……"
Wu Qiqi looked astonished.
Then he picked up his little cloth bag and patted it: "It's okay, I have a lot more here."
"..."
Wei Shuyu cracked.
What do you want to do with so many onion pancakes?
Are you going to kill all my old Wei family in one go?
"By the way, what do you think happened to King Shu?"
Wei Shuyu quickly changed the topic.
If you eat this green onion pancake, you will lose your appetite for the whole day.
"Oh, this..."
Wu Qiqi put on a cute and serious face: "You don't know, yesterday when I returned to the palace with the Supreme Emperor, I met the King of Shu."
"The little lady next to him has been trying to trick me."
The King of Shu is back?
I've only been away for a few months...
Wei Shuyu muttered something to himself.
"Did his little wife offend you?"
Wei Shuyu thought the two of them were having an argument.
"Wei Shuyu."
Wu Qiqi put his hands on his hips and said seriously: "I'm not you, making enemies everywhere..."
"So cute, everyone likes me!"
Everything you say is right.
Lao Wei family status ranking...
Now you and your mother are tied for first place.
Wei Shuyu nodded perfunctorily.
"I'm serious!"
Seeing Wei Shuyu's indifferent attitude, Wu Qiqi bit his little tiger teeth and said.
"Are you referring to your beauty, or to that little lady?" Wei Shuyu replied helplessly.
"Everything is important!" Wu Qiqi replied.
"Which thing is more important?"
"Of course it's because I'm beautiful!"
"Isn't that okay?"
Wei Shuyu spread his hands: "Does this prove that the little lady is not that important?"
Well……
Wu Qiqi was stunned.
As smart as she is, she has no advantage at all when faced with the Wei family's words.
"Wei Shuyu, I'm worried about you."
Wu Qiqi said angrily: "You don't know, that little lady always inadvertently asks you about your situation with the Supreme Emperor."
"She thinks I'm cute and doesn't understand anything else."
"Actually, we are smart!"
Wei Shuyu nodded.
There is no doubt about Wu Qiqi's intelligence.
"How do you know she's trying to trick you?" Wei Shuyu asked.
"You are so stupid."
Wu Qiqi said with a smile: "It is taboo to talk about the Supreme Emperor behind his back."
"It was the first time I met her. How dare she talk to me about this."
"And there's more..."
"She is the little wife of the King of Shu. Why are we talking about you?"
Yo ho?
Wei Shuyu touched his chin.
When Wu Qiqi said this, it seemed like that was really the case.
"So what do you think I should do?" Wei Shuyu said with a smile.
"I'm just reminding you to be careful."
Wu Qiqi said seriously: "Never believe what other women say."
"..."
This sermon always felt a bit strange.
"Cauldron, cauldron..."
At this moment, Cui Shenji's voice finally sounded: "I'm here."
"Hey, Qiqi, you came so early today!"
Snapped.
Wei Shuyu's backhand was a fool's errand.
"What are you doing today and why are you here so late?"
"It's not that I'm late, it's that Qiqi came early."
Wei Shuyu nodded, and then handed the scallion pancake in his hand to Cui Shenji...
"The big pot is dry, huh?"
"Here's something to eat."
What?
Cui Shenji used two fingers to lift the scallion pancake in disgust...
"Big pot, this scallion pancake is hard."
"At first glance, it's the leftovers from yesterday's meal."
"And here's the bite."
"You're not giving me something that a dog has bitten to eat, deliberately trying to trick me, are you?"
Dog bitten?
Wei Shuyu's face suddenly darkened.
I was listening well before, but when I heard this, I suddenly became uneasy.
"eat!"
Wei Shuyu scolded with a dark face.
"..."
Cui Shenji hesitated for a while, but couldn't resist Wei Shuyu's power.
After dawdling for a while, he closed his eyes and took a bite.
Then……
"Bah, bah, bah."
Cui Shenji spit out the scallion pancake and cursed: "Which king made this scallion pancake? If you give it to dogs, the dogs won't eat it!"
Even the dogs won’t eat it?
Wu Qiqi's face suddenly darkened.
"Cui Shenji, I have something to talk to you about..."
