Zhao Meiniang was startled, her pretty face turned red, and she said unnaturally,
"I'm a little tired, let's wait another day..."
She said, leaving Liu Youxin where he was, and left with the maid first.
Seeing Zhao Meiniang's leaving figure, Liu Youxin's smile quickly disappeared and his face became gloomy.
The son-in-law of Daxia had a low status and was not looked down upon by the world.
Liu Youxin abandoned his dignity and married into the Zhao family not only because the family was poor, but also because he coveted Zhao Meiniang's beauty.
As a result, I have been married to Zhao Meiniang for so long, but I haven't even touched a finger of hers.
Liu Youxin was extremely unhappy!
The reason why he wanted to take Erguotou's brewing formula from Ji Lie today.
He just wanted to please Zhao Meiniang and take this opportunity to sleep with her!
Who would have thought that the plan failed, that they were embarrassed and almost lost their lives!
Smelly bitches!
Maybe he just fell in love with Ji Lie’s pretty face!
Thinking of Zhao Meiniang's rosy face in front of Ji Lie, Liu Youxin was so angry that his teeth itched!
You two bitchy couple will make you look good sooner or later!
…
Zhao Meiniang really kept her promise. Not long after she left the palace, she sent someone to deliver a carriage.
There are several boxes on the carriage. When you open it, you will find that they are all filled with white money!
Seeing so much money, Xiuer and Laifu were dazzled by it!
Even Ji Lie couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
As the saying goes, money is not everything, but having no money is absolutely impossible!
Seeing Ji Lie's beaming smile, Yang Dehou breathed a sigh of relief and said cautiously,
"Your Majesty, if nothing happens, the common people will leave first!"
"Wait!"
Ji Lie stopped Yang Dehou who was about to leave, took out about 5,000 taels of silver from the car, put it into a bag, and stuffed it directly into Yang Dehou's arms.
"According to our previous agreement, this is the commission for you!"
"You don't have to, Your Majesty. It's an honor for ordinary people to serve for Your Majesty!"
Yang Dehou quickly declined.
"We have an agreement first, you must accept this money! Besides, in the future, I will inevitably ask for your help."
Upon hearing this, Yang Dehou suddenly complained in his heart.
Seeing that Ji Lie was not the fool he was rumored to be, but rather an extremely talented man, he, like Zhao Meiniang, felt that Ji Lie failed in the court battle and was sent to the remote and cold Youzhou.
The purpose of selling Erguotou is to raise money and wait for the opportunity!
But unlike Zhao Meiniang, Yang Dehou has no intention of climbing up and just wants to do business peacefully.
This time, he just wanted to make a commission by setting up a bridge.
Who would have expected that there would be a bloody fight, and even King You Ji Lie would be involved!
Yang Dehou, who has read several books, knows very well that once he is implicated in a royal dispute, he will either rise to great heights or be executed!
The purpose of Yang Dehou giving up the commission was to draw a clear line with Ji Lie so as not to implicate himself in the future.
But he didn't expect that Ji Lie would ask him for help in the future!
Seeing Ji Lie's firm attitude, Yang Dehou couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Whatever.
From Ji Lie's actions, it is not difficult to see that he is indeed a man with great talents!
If he really succeeds in the future, he might also be able to rise to great heights!
"Then the common people would like to thank the prince!"
Yang Dehou took the baggage handed over by Ji Lie and bowed respectfully again.
After the two chatted for a while, Ji Lie told Yang Dehou to send someone to deliver two banquets later.
Yang Dehou agreed, then stood up and left.
After he left, Ji Lie waved to Laifu and asked him to take a few servants to temporarily put the money sent by Zhao Meiniang into the warehouse.
After a while, the drunk waiter brought a lot of wine and food in food boxes at Yang Dehou's order.
Ji Lie kept one table for himself and asked Laifu to send the other table to Zhang Changde and others.
Looking at the table full of delicacies, tears flowed out of Ji Lie's mouth.
"Xiu'er, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and eat!"
Ji Lie greeted.
"Your Highness, this...this is against the rules."
Xiu'er quickly shook her head.
From the day she entered the palace, she was required not to eat at the same table as her master.
"Gu's rules are rules. From today on, you can eat with Gu!"
Ji Lie said with a straight face.
Seeing that Xiu'er was still hesitant, Ji Lie stretched out his hand, pulled her to his side, and sat down.
"Here, eat more!"
Ji Lie picked up a chicken leg and put it in Xiu'er's bowl.
"Thank you...your highness!"
In the end, Xiu'er couldn't resist the temptation of the fragrant chicken legs. After thanking Ji Lie, she started to eat hungrily.
Ever since I came to Youzhou, let alone the smell of meat, I can only eat a meal of white rice on weekdays, which is considered good!
At this moment, Xiu'er suddenly stopped her chopsticks.
"Xiu'er, what's wrong? Isn't it delicious?"
Ji Lie asked.
"No...it's just that I didn't expect that His Highness would become so powerful..."
Xiu'er's fair face was full of admiration for Ji Lie.
Although he only had two days, Ji Lie first killed Li Zhuo, the man who oppressed them, and then earned tens of thousands of taels of silver, allowing them to eat delicious food!
Xiuer felt like she was in a dream!
"There is something even more powerful about Gu. When you take good care of yourself, I will let you learn from me!"
Ji Lie smiled deliberately and looked Xiu'er up and down.
Although she was still a young girl, she had received instructions on sexual intercourse when she first entered the palace.
Hearing his words, Xiuer's pretty face instantly turned red and she was speechless!
When Ji Lie saw this, he couldn't help but laugh.
As expected, women like bad men rather than bad-looking men.
After filling his stomach, Ji Lie put down the chopsticks in his hand.
Although Zui Qingfeng's wine and food are already among the best in Youzhou City, they are still far from the delicacies of his previous life.
Who knows that the current cooking methods are extremely simple, with only a few types such as boiling, frying, roasting, and steaming.
Condiments like MSG and cumin don’t even exist!
It seems that I will need to take matters into my own hands in the future and get some condiments to make my life more comfortable.
Ji Lie stood up while thinking.
"Your Highness, are you going?"
Xiu'er quickly put down her chopsticks and was about to stand up, but was held down by Ji Lie.
"Eat slowly, go and see Commander Zhang and the others."
Ji Lie greeted Laifu and walked out.
Whether it is a palace or other wealthy families, the master usually lives in the backyard, and the guards and servants live in the front yard.
As soon as Ji Lie arrived outside the residence of the palace guards, he heard laughter and curses coming from inside.
"Commander, what do you think happened to the prince these past two days?"
"Yeah, it's like he's changed."
"Is it possible that you fell into a well a few days ago and suffered from brain damage?"
