Li Shimin heard this and thought about the feasibility of this matter in his heart.
After all, let’s not say whether it can be done or not, just say it’s done.
If one day, that old man Wei Zheng finds out, he will inevitably report to the court,
"The royal family competes with the people for profit when doing business."
Li Shimin thought so.
But when he lowered his head and thought, he happened to see the embroidered shoes of Empress Changsun exposed outside the skirt from the corner of his eye.
My heart just hurts.
How long…
It seems that after I became the emperor, Guanyin maid began to manage the internal funds.
Her skirt did not cover her feet.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin's eyes gradually became firm.
"Qin Xiaolangjun and I had a very pleasant chat today."
"I think he won't refuse this money-making business."
Empress Changsun also saw Li Shimin's concerns, so she said:
"Erlang, don't worry, I will take care of the internal money."
"The Imperial Mansion outside the city and the shops in Chang'an City are all arranged by me."
"While the court is resting, Erlang can take me to Qin's Manor."
"I will discuss this matter with the husband of the Qin family in person."
Li Shimin thought for a while and said:
"Okay. Next time I go, I will take you with me."
When several princesses heard that they were leaving the palace, they also said:
"My son is going too"
When Li Shimin and Empress Changsun heard this, they looked at each other and smiled:
"Okay, let's go together."
At this moment, outside the palace gate, Empress Changsun's personal maid Luo Xi came in and saluted:
"Your Majesty, Queen, the chicken is ready."
Li Shimin said:
"Well, then submit it."
The palace maid who passed the dishes quickly brought out plates of disassembled chicken, and each placed a plate in front of Li Shimin and others.
In front of everyone, the palace maid tasted it and found no problem.
Li Shimin greeted everyone and hurriedly eat while it was hot.
Li Shimin had eaten at noon, so he was not in a hurry to use his chopsticks, but watched the queen and several princesses eating together.
After everyone took a bite, they all showed expressions of surprise.
After the weather turned cold, Queen Changsun's appetite has not been good.
It's rare that I look like I have a big appetite today.
This dish seems to suit Guanyin's taste.
Li Shimin began to think that next time he goes to the Qin Mansion, he must bring a few royal chefs with him to learn the craftsmanship from Miss Wan'er.
Thinking this way, he also started to eat with his chopsticks.
But before he had even taken two bites, Princess Jinyang ran over in a hurry. Li Shimin stood in front of him, covering his belly and said:
"Father, father, Sizi has finished eating, but he is not full. Can daddy give yours to Sizi?"
Hearing this, Li Shimin smiled and touched Jin Yang's little head and said:
"You little snacker, take it and eat it."
Jin Yang heard this and walked away with the plate.
Upon seeing this, the eldest grandson walked up to Li Shimin carrying his plate and said softly:
"Erlang, I still have some here, let's eat together."
.....
As night fell, Li Shimin, who was lying on the bed, hugged Queen Changsun and told her what he had seen and heard in Qinjiazhuang today.
After a long time, Queen Changsun said:
"From what Erlang said, Qin Ming is really a talent."
"And being able to say that success lies in the present and benefit for the future, he can also analyze the situation of our Prince Qin's Mansion back then."
"This man is very good in both literary talent and knowledge."
"The rare thing is that this person should have no ambition."
"If such a person can become an official, he should be able to assist His Majesty in making Datang a better place."
Li Shimin said:
"Yes, if we in the Tang Dynasty can have more people like him, then the Tang Dynasty will definitely become stronger and stronger."
Having said this, Li Shimin suddenly turned over, pushed down Empress Changsun, leaned over and whispered in Empress Changsun's ear:
"Mr. Guanyin, it's getting late. Let's take a rest early."
Empress Changsun raised her head and kissed Li Shimin and said:
"I, I would like to obey your majesty's instructions."
Then, a melancholy sound sounded in the empty hall.
....
Lantian County, Qinjiazhuangzhong.
Qin Ming, who had already laid down after taking a bath, was lying on the bed, thinking about going to Chang'an tomorrow.
Tomorrow we will enter Chang'an City, the imperial capital.
I don’t know how big Chang’an City is in this world.
In history, Chang'an City should be the largest city in the world today.
Qin Ming now has little foundation and capital.
I'm thinking of going to Chang'an tomorrow and coming back as soon as I finish shopping.
Outside the door, Wan'er was already in the yard, walking around several times.
Her mood at this time was quite complicated.
Ever since the young master said he wanted to marry her off in the study in the afternoon, she had always felt uneasy.
She was afraid that one day the young master would no longer want her.
Although the young master comforted her in the end, he was still worried.
The memories before coming to the Qin family also kept flooding into my mind.
Although those things are already very far away for her now.
But she still remembered some important things.
When she was a child, she lived in the south of the Yangtze River, and her family was originally from a well-known scholarly family in the area.
But later, there was a flood in her hometown, and her parents took her as a child to the north to seek refuge with relatives.
It was very difficult to follow the team of refugees all the way to Chang'an, and I suffered a lot on the way. Sometimes it took two days to get something to eat.
Whenever her parents had something to eat along the way, they would follow her to eat first.
The family finally arrived at a relative's home in Chang'an, but the father fell ill and died, and the mother passed away after entrusting her to relatives.
It's just that parents probably would never think of relatives who are hospitable in their eyes.
After their death, they quickly changed their minds and sold her to human traffickers.
She also lived a life of hunger and satiety again.
Not only that, the traffickers often beat and scolded her for no reason.
At that time, she was so thin and small that she had no strength to resist.
Every day I can only look forward to leaving that horrible place as soon as possible.
It wasn't until Mrs. Qin brought her back that she lived a stable life.
Later, the wife also passed away, and the young master became the only person in the world that she could trust and rely on.
Now looking back on those days when she didn't have enough to eat and didn't have warm clothes, Wan'er still feels lingering fear, which is the fear from deep in her heart.
This also caused her small body to tremble uncontrollably.
Thinking of this, she secretly made up her mind and walked quickly to Qin Ming's room.
She decided that she wanted to be the son's person.
She knew that she was not worthy of the young master, and she had no intention of seeking any status.
As long as I can feel at ease and stay with the young master, it's fine.
Wan'er gently pushed open Qin Ming's door. After entering the room, she gently closed the door.
She walked quietly to Qin Ming's bed, took off her skirt, put her shoes next to the bed, got into Qin Ming's quilt, and hugged Qin Ming.
Qin Ming had been thinking about things just now, so he didn't notice Wan'er coming in.
He didn't react until there was a soft body on his body.
I was a little nervous at first, but after I saw it was Wan'er, I felt relieved.
He didn't understand what was going on for a moment.
So he sat up straight, put his hand on Wan'er's shoulder and said:
"Wan'er, it's so late, why are you here? And you ran to my bed?"
…
