Li Shimin returned to the side hall of Xuanzheng Hall after court.

He was in a particularly happy mood these days.

When the poem was released, the response was very good, and the civil and military ministers praised each other.

Although the road to civil and military achievements is not easy, it seems not far away.

Every time he arrived at this time, the Inner General Zhang Qian would diligently take a book and send it to Li Shimin.

As the sun sets, the afterglow of the sunset comes into the hall. Countless lights in the hall light up, shining on Li Shimin's energetic face.

Then... he opened the book.

This is a money book. Li Shimin picked up the pen and looked at the dense numbers on it. He could already memorize these numbers.

Then... he picked up the pen with interest, and after this number, he added another one.

Erpigou Salt Industry has a daily business of thousands of yuan, and its daily profits are amazing.

Look... if the salt tax is eliminated, the net profit for one day will be amazing. I will calculate it... In this way, in the past two months, I am afraid that the profit has reached 100,000 yuan. My share... No, the share of my beloved daughter... I think it will be 50,000 yuan or 60,000 yuan. I am so amazing...

After closing the book, Li Shimin looked up at Zhang Qian: "Today..."

He paused and then said, "Today, go to Zhou Zhaorong's place."

Zhang Qian had no expression on his face. He was used to it. Every time His Majesty finished the calculation, he couldn't help but be excited to go to Princess Sui'an's mother's place. He nodded: "I obey the order."

…………

Li Shimin arrived at Zhou Zhaorong's place.

Zhou Zhaorong hurriedly brought people to welcome him. In the past two months, His Majesty has always come every now and then, so this attic has become more popular. Not only has the bedrooms been cleaned several times, but it has also been a royal object for Yingsheng.

Whenever Zhou Zhaorong thought of this, he couldn't help but burst into tears.

She naturally knew that this had something to do with her daughter. If it weren't for her, and Chen Zhengtai, I'm afraid she would never have today.

In the past, a person who could be ignored in the palace was suddenly very popular, which is really touching.

It is precisely because of this that Zhou Zhaorong was even more careful in flattering the emperor.

Li Shimin entered the bedroom, Zhou Zhaorong brought the tea cup in person. Li Shimin took a sip of the tea and said with great spirit: "This tea is very delicious."

"This is given by Your Majesty..." Zhou Zhaorong smiled gently and looked at Li Shimin with affection.

Li Shimin laughed: "No, no, no, I didn't say that this tea is good. I have drunk this tea many times. What I said is... Such tea is only delicious when you come to your place."

Zhou Zhaorong couldn't help but blushed and said shyly: "Your Majesty has said it out loud. You can win the love of Your Majesty like this..."

"I don't allow you to say that. I used to blame you and Xiurong, so how could I not know?"

Li Shimin looked regretful.

This made Zhou Zhaorong's eyes suddenly turn red and shed tears unconsciously.

Li Shimin sighed again.

Zhou Zhaorong said: "Why did Your Majesty sigh?"

Li Shimin looked sad and held the teacup, but stopped drinking it. He just murmured to himself: "The Supreme Emperor has lived in Tai Chi Palace for a long time, which is not a solution. He is my father and has the kindness of raising me. Now, he is in this old palace, and the palace is old and disrepaired. As a son, I feel ashamed whenever I think about it."

"Does Your Majesty want to build a new palace?" Zhou Zhaorong asked as Li Shimin said. Looking at Li Shimin's sad face, the unique tenderness of women was emitting.

Li Shimin sighed: "Yes, I have had this idea for a long time. The Supreme Emperor has a love for me. Not to mention that I am building a palace, even ten or one hundred cans, I cannot repay the Supreme Emperor's grace for raising me."

Zhou Zhaorong said: "Your Majesty has such filial piety, so why bother to do it?"

"You don't know this." Li Shimin smiled bitterly: "This is to create a new palace, so we have to use the treasury money. Not to mention that this is a people's wealth and ointment. If I decide to create it, I am afraid that the censor in the court will scold me again."

After hearing this, Zhou Zhaorong frowned secretly.

Li Shimin looked careless and said: "It would be great if the treasury in the palace had money. In this way, I can be filial and not cause criticism from the court."

He deliberately took the word filial piety very seriously.

"If you talk about money..." Zhou Zhaorong said lightly: "There are quite a lot of them in Xiurong."

Li Shimin said in surprise: "Ah? She is rich, oh, yes, I have forgotten that she is doing business with others now. She is a daughter, but she also has ambition, which makes me very pleased."

He trembled slightly under his eyebrows, but he deliberately staggered his eyes, looking slow.

Zhou Zhaorong immediately said, "It's just a pity..."

"What a pity..." Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and his eyes fell on Zhou Zhaorong.

Zhou Zhaorong said with slightest words: "It's a pity that Xiurong said that she wanted to purchase grain. She went to buy chickens, ducks and grain with the men in Erpigou County."

Li Shimin sat, his body stiff and motionless, with a stern face, and said nothing.

"Your Majesty, it's not too early. You can also talk about it later. I'll give Your Majesty a loose dress..." Zhou Zhaorong was a little shy, and under the palace lantern, he brought the young woman's unique charm.

Li Shimin didn't say anything.

"His Majesty……"

"Cough cough..." Li Shimin coughed and said lightly: "Oh, I remembered something. I still have something unknown today. You should go to bed earlier. Zhang Qian, go and take "The Legend of the Ram" to show me."

Zhang Qian stood aside with his head hanging down like a shadow, and bowed and said, "Here."

I sent Zhou Zhaorong to go to bed first. Under the candlelight, Li Shimin read the "Book of the Ram" for half a night. When the sky was slightly bright, he left Zhou Zhaorong's bedroom tiredly.

When he moved to Xuanzheng Hall, Zhang Qian whispered: "I saw Your Majesty study hard and not sleeping all night. Why not your Majesty sleep for a while before summoning him..."

Li Shimin shouted at him, "Why are so much money gone?... What do they buy so much food for?"

Although this sentence seems to be asking Zhang Qian, Zhang Qian knows... he can't know the answer.

"slave……"

"Hey!" Li Shimin sighed: "After all, children are children. Letting a group of dolls hold gold ingots in their hands is a waste of resources."

Li Shimin gritted his teeth: "Xiurong has no opinion. This must be what Chen Zhengtai taught her. She is so stupid. Chen Zhengtai is not a good thing, so I can't spare him."

With a gritted teeth, Zhang Qian's mind moved, and a slight flickered in his eyes. Zhang Qian said: "Your Majesty, will you arrest Chen Zhengtai immediately?"

Li Shimin suddenly looked at him with a strange look, and this kind of look was indescribable.

Zhang Qian lowered his head and dared not let out his anger.

Li Shimin suddenly said in a cold voice, saying word by word: "You eunuch slave, how dare you capture my disciple?"

Zhang Qian was so scared that his hair stood up, and he was busy creeping down: "Slave... I've died..."

Li Shimin's face was cold and he didn't even look at him, and left with his sleeves.

Zhang Qian didn't dare to stand up, and knelt on the cold bricks and stones, trembling.

...

More and more grains were sent to Erpigou.

Countless grains were piled up and put into the barn.

The temporary barn was a bit broken, and Chen Zhengtai had to have someone inspect it repeatedly to make up for the missing.

Many Tubo merchants came excitedly, but Chen Zhengtai couldn't understand Tubo language. Fortunately, their Chinese language was pretty good. Chen Zhengtai didn't know if he was influenced by the later generations of ghosts. Whenever he met foreigners, although he also talked in Chinese, he could not help but change his tone: "You... do it well, and there is a lot of salt..."

The Tubo merchants smiled on their faces. In this Chang'an City, Da Chi, the largest Tubo merchant, looked at Chen Zhengtai with a sympathetic look. He has been in Chang'an for seven years, and the people in Chang'an that he has come into contact with are extremely smart.

Today I met a fool. Da Chi admired the culture of the Central Plains quite a bit. When Chen Zhengtai saw that Chen Zhengtai couldn't help but wonder how great it would be if the people in Chang'an were like Chen Zhengtai.

"Young Master, nineteen grain ships... a total of 270,000 kilograms of grain... and 5,000 kilograms of salt. Now, the money is over. If the young master wants to buy grain... I should try my best to deal with it." Chi Da smiled and became rich... At this time, he couldn't help but be excited.

In fact... he spent a lot of effort to transfer these grains. After all, even if he was using water routes, the losses along the way were amazing.

But now white salt is priceless and can be exchanged for 5,000 kilograms of salt with grain. Then, when you return to Tubo, you can get a fortune.

There were many Tubo merchants like him, some transferred three or four ships, while others were transferred in partnership with others. There were only hundreds of grain ships one after another.

Such a huge amount of food has been going on for a long time.

However, Tubo merchants were afraid that the night would be long and dreams would be too long, so they almost costly, and used the maximum energy to transfer the grain ship within two months. Once it was late, who would know if the Chen family would turn against each other?

"Okay, OK." Chen Zhengtai said with a humble look on his face: "I'm working, I'm working."

"Where, where..." Chida smiled: "In Chang'an, we have to rely more on the young master."

As he said that... Chida stood up and said goodbye.

He left the Chen family's house and suddenly... a black shadow rushed into his face.

Subconsciously, Chida slapped his face with his own hands. Suddenly, his face was bloody and he spread his hands out to see, but he saw that a locust had just flew to his face and was beaten to death by himself.

Chida couldn't help but curse: "It's outrageous. At this time... there are such a big locust..."
