The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 872: Old Li’s eyes turned green

Not only Cheng Chumo, but also the rest of the academy looked happy.

They were all ready to fight Hou Junji just now.

But fortunately, there was no danger.

Hou Junji actually promised to give Zhao Chen an extra 30,000 yuan.

Thirty thousand guan is a lot of money.

How can I give you pocket money if I don't ask for more money? Zhao Chen smiled and waved to everyone again.

All the money will be shipped back later, and you will share the extra 30,000 yuan among yourselves.

Guanyin maid, are you free to leave the palace today? In the Lizheng Hall, the emperor came here after handling government affairs.

It’s a bit chilly in Riseijeon in winter.

The emperor came in and squatted by the charcoal fire to warm his hands.

Looking at the weather, it may snow today. Does Your Majesty have anything to do with leaving the palace today? Empress Changsun and the Emperor handed over hot handkerchiefs to cover their hands.

Yesterday I heard from Ke'er that there was a powerful Eight-Niu Crossbow in Chang'an Academy, so I wanted to take a look! The emperor took the hot handkerchief and covered it in his hand.

The emperor never forgot the eight-oxen crossbow that Li Ke talked about.

Li Ke said that the Eight Ox Crossbow was more powerful than the bed crossbow developed by the Ministry of War's Ordnance Supervisor.

Li Shimin has already seen the power of the bed crossbow.

It was more powerful than the bed crossbow, how could the emperor not be tempted.

If he hadn't known that Zhao Chen had gone to Hou Junji's house to ask for money early this morning, the emperor would not have waited until now.

I heard that today at Chenshi, Zhao Chen led a group of students from the academy to Chen Guogong's mansion. An hour later, they came out one after another pushing carts full of coins.

Zhao Chen already had a grudge against Hou Junji. Why did Your Majesty let the two conflict again? Queen Changsun asked.

She didn't quite understand that the emperor knew that Zhao Chen had a grudge against Hou Junji.

Why let the two of them meet?

He even asked Zhao Chen to go to Hou Junji's house and ask for 300,000 yuan from Hou Junji.

Asking Hou Junji to hand over 300,000 silver coins was enough to make Hou Junji angry in every possible way.

Even

What's more, the emperor sent Zhao Chen there.

What would Hou Junji be thinking?

Doesn't that mean that the emperor wants to deal with him, Hou Junji?

Empress Changsun felt that the emperor's approach was unwise.

I didn't intentionally cause them to conflict. It was Zhao Chen himself who took the initiative to ask Hou Junji for 300,000 yuan.

I'm just pushing the boat along.

As for the grudge between Zhao Chen and Hou Junji, Guanyin, there are some things that I don't have to say! The emperor shook his head.

He also wanted harmony in the court and harmony among the officials.

But this is obviously not realistic enough.

Moreover, after the Ministry of War took the money, how much money was spent on weapons research?

As an emperor, even if he doesn't know everything clearly, he still knows a few things.

The emperor was already tolerant of Hou Junji.

If it were another emperor who had taken half a million yuan, things would have been messed up.

Not telling Hou Junji, the Minister of the Ministry of War, to get out was already a great act of grace, but hey, 500,000 guan, just asked him to hand over 300,000 guan.

It can be regarded as the emperor's biggest concession to Hou Junji.

I am just worried that Duke Chen Guo is resentful towards Zhao Chen...

He has long been resentful. Let Zhao Chen resolve this matter by himself. If he can't even deal with Hou Junji, how will he gain a foothold in the court in the future?

How can I leave such a huge country in his hands with confidence? the emperor interrupted Empress Changsun.

Empress Changsun didn't quite understand the emperor's thoughts.

At least, she didn't know why he wanted Li Tai to be the crown prince since the emperor had already planned to let Zhao Chen succeed him.

Will there be another bloody battle to win the inheritance in the future?

But Queen Changsun didn't dare to say this.

Your Majesty is not going to visit the academy. It just so happens that I want to bring some supplements to Ruoshuang.

Let's go together! Empress Changsun put away her unhappiness and said to the emperor.

Hey, Zhao Chen, you've robbed the treasury, haven't you?

So much money?

This must be a hundred thousand guan, right? The courtyard of the Zhao Mansion was filled with bamboo baskets.

Wu Jue's eyes were shining with gold, and he was holding a handful of copper coins in his hand.

It's just that people didn't pounce on the copper coins.

Xiao Li Zhi followed behind, grabbing a bunch of copper coins and stuffing them into his arms.

Although he is the King of Jin, Xiao Li Zhi has never seen so much money so intuitively.

This kind of visual impact makes others feel a little dull.

Sir, did you rob my father's private treasury? Xiao Li Zhi raised his head and asked Zhao Chen.

But he shook his head again.

Xiao Li Zhi went to see the emperor's private treasury. How could there be so many copper coins there?

The huge private treasury, with several baskets of copper coins in the corner, looked shabby compared to the place in front of me.

Zhao Chen, where did you get this money? Li Ruoshuang came from the backyard and her eyes lit up when she saw the money all over the yard.

Although she is in charge of her own perfume shop, she still earns a lot of money every month.

But money, who would have too much?

It was given by someone else. Zhao Chen sat on the recliner, feeling a little cold.

It's not even noon yet, and the sky is already getting dark, and it might snow later.

I don't believe it. There must be at least 200,000 yuan here. Who would be so stupid to give you so much money? Li Ruoshuang counted the bamboo baskets one by one, the smile on her face getting stronger.

This is all money, enough to pave the way.

From now on, she won’t be able to spend it however she wants.

If a child is born, you have to take the child with you.

Chen Guogong sent it to you, saying he wanted to apologize to you. Zhao Chen said with a smile.

Chen Guogong? Hou Junji! Li Ruoshuang frowned, she could

If you don't believe it, Hou Jun will gather to apologize to her.

Li Ruoshuang has long known that Hou Junji ordered people to mix her anti-fetal medicine with Sichuan Wu.

Naturally, he hated Hou Junji deeply.

Are you going to trouble him? Li Ruoshuang was a little worried.

Old Li Tou asked me to go! Zhao Chen explained.

Your Majesty, what did he ask you to do? Li Ruoshuang obviously didn't believe it.

Old Li Tou said that Hou Junji's house had too much money and asked me to help him move some of it away.

Look at this money, Lao Litou will take half of it later.

We can only get half. Zhao Chen pointed to the mountains of copper coins in front of him and said to Li Ruoshuang.

How can this be...

You are very fast, I came at the right time! Before Li Ruoshuang finished speaking, she saw the emperor walking from the front.

The emperor came to Zhao Chen today for two purposes.

The first one is to see what a powerful thing the legendary Eight Ox Crossbow is.

If it is really that powerful, then it needs to be obtained quickly and secretly.

Good things should not be wasted.

As for the second one, the Chinese New Year is still a month away, and the emperor's money bag is empty.

If you don’t have money, this will not be an easy year.

When the time comes, he won't even be able to pay out the new year's money. How embarrassing will he be as an emperor?

I only have a little money in my private treasury, and I will tour Jiangnan at the beginning of the year.

Liu Zhenghui, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, said that the Ministry of Revenue would not pay a penny for the tour in the south of the Yangtze River.

Either you, the emperor, pay for it yourself, or you don’t go.

Liu Zhenghui is a stubborn old man. If he says he won't give it, he won't give it.

The emperor has no money, this is normal.

So he had to find some way to make money.

Isn't this good right now?

Old Li's eyes turned green when he saw the mountains of copper coins in front of him.
