Chapter 25 The Truth

Yingluo suddenly thought of something again, Qiqi Ai said: "Princess, there is one more thing. I heard that Mr. Su has brewed fine wine. What is it called Burning Knife? The emperor even praised it as the best wine in the world!"

Princess Changle smiled sweetly: "Really? The best wine in the world?"

Yingluo nodded and said, "Well, but, but..."

Princess Changle asked, "But what?"

Yingluo Qiqi Ai said: "However, it is said that the emperor snatched the wine from Chengfu, so the emperor thinks Mr. Su is not filial."

ah?Princess Changle was dumbfounded when she heard it, and asked worriedly: "He can't enter the palace, and he was beaten forty times by the emperor just now, what should we do? Yes, mother, I will go to find mother now." .”

Su Cheng didn't worry about filial piety any more, he was still happy to be named Ankangbo, not only was named Ankangbo, but also an official.

Su Cheng asked curiously: "What kind of official is Chao Yilang? Do I still have to work in the Yamen?"

Cheng Chumo explained: "That's a sixth-rank literary official. You don't need to go to the yamen to sit in court, just wait to receive your salary."

Su Cheng said pleasantly: "Just take money and don't work? Is it so cool?"

Cheng Yaojin strode over, laughed loudly and said, "That's right, boy Su, you really made a big splash last night!"

Su Cheng smiled modestly: "I just got some news from Master, but I didn't expect His Majesty to be so generous."

Cheng Yaojin smiled and said: "Your Majesty has a universal mind, as long as you make contributions, His Majesty's rewards will definitely not be less!"

Although he was beaten forty times, Su Cheng still cupped his hands in the direction of the palace and said, "The emperor's grace is mighty!"

Cheng Yaojin smiled and said: "Although you have made a lot of contributions, but after all, you just talked about it. It is really a great grace to be named the County Boss. The County Boss has a thousand acres of Yongye farmland and seven hundred households in the city. The decree should come down soon, but it may take some time before His Majesty bestows on you the mansion, Yongye farmland and food town."

This time Su Cheng was really shocked. He thought that being a county magistrate was just a salary, but he didn't expect that there was still a thousand acres of Yongye farmland and a food town!

It's developed now!

Su Cheng couldn't help grinning sillily, he suddenly felt that he didn't need to bother with anything, just eat and wait to die.

One thousand mu of land, and you can still receive the salaries of the county magistrate and Chao Yilang, which is definitely enough to eat and die!

Cheng Yaojin patted Su Cheng and laughed: "Boy Su, before the house that the emperor gave you is cleaned up, you should live in my house first."

Su Cheng cupped his hands and said, "Thank you uncle!"

Cheng Chumo couldn't help asking: "Father, isn't there any credit for us?"

Cheng Yaojin glared at him, and said angrily: "You kid has a fart credit? The rice seeds that are harvested twice a year were discovered by Su boy! Can your majesty ignore the fact that you broke into the Sifang Pavilion and beat Prince Linyi? It’s already been extraordinarily merciful.”

Cheng Chumo said resentfully: "We helped Su Cheng break into the Sifang Pavilion, after all, we deserve a little credit. As for the prince of Lin Yiguo, hmph, he deserves a beating!"

Su Cheng asked in confusion: "Uncle Cheng, why did the emperor suddenly beat me up before leaving? He also called me unfilial?"

Cheng Yaojin asked in surprise, "You don't know?"

Su Cheng said in a daze: "Should I know? To tell you the truth, Uncle Cheng, I can't figure it out."

Cheng Yaojin laughed a little and said: "I have also heard a little about the matter between you and Princess Changle. You are talented in poetry and have made great achievements. Of course, the emperor is very happy, so he rewarded you so heavily. The emperor also likes wine. Congratulations on the burning knife you brewed."

Su Cheng thought for a while, and suddenly realized, he said in surprise: "Is the emperor going to marry the princess to me? Do you think I didn't present the burning knife to His Majesty?"

Cheng Yaojin looked like a teachable child, but Su Cheng suddenly changed color, marrying a princess?

What a mess!

He obviously has land, a house, an official status, and a source of income, so why marry a princess?

The princess is the proud daughter of heaven, so she must be spoiled and spoiled. After marrying her, she must be careful to serve her as an ancestor?

Why would you want to make yourself unhappy when you could obviously live a life of beautiful wives and concubines with red sleeves and sweets?

Su Cheng shook his head and said, "No, no, no, I won't marry the princess!"

Cheng Yaojin and Cheng Chumo looked at Su Cheng as if they were looking at a fool, who in the world would not want to marry a princess?What's more, Princess Changle is the eldest daughter of the emperor and empress, and can be said to be the most beloved and noble princess.

Su Cheng refused?

Are you scared stupid by being a princess now?Cheng Yaojin smiled and patted Su Cheng and left.

Cheng Chumo looked at Su Cheng with a strange face and said, "Okay, that's Princess Changle, the emperor actually wants to marry Princess Changle to you?"

Cheng Chumo was very curious, because Su Cheng didn't have a prominent family background, why did the emperor want to marry his beloved Princess Changle to Su Cheng?

Don't say it's because of Su Cheng's great service. Rewarding Su Cheng as the County Earl is enough to reward him, and it's really not Su Cheng's turn to be awarded the title according to his merit.

Cheng Chumo asked directly: "Su Cheng, why does the emperor want to marry Princess Changle to you? You must have something to hide from me, right?"

Su Cheng said unhappily: "Why? Of course it's because I'm graceful, suave, educated and well-educated, and I'm a great talent. What else could it be?"

After finishing speaking, Su Cheng couldn't help but muttered: "No, I have to keep a low profile in the future. People, I can't be too good. It's more suitable for me to just eat and wait for death."

Cheng Chumo almost spit out a mouthful, and said very speechlessly: "Let's go, today is Shaodaozi wine and it's on sale in the restaurant, let's go and have a look together."

Su Cheng cheered up immediately, put aside the trouble of marrying the princess for now, nodded and said, "Let's go, let's go to the restaurant!"

The Cheng family's brewery continued to distill shochu day and night, and last night distilled two-carriage shochu, which was sent to the Cheng family's restaurant early this morning to start selling it.

"The tide of the spring river is even with the sea level, and the moon rises together with the tide..."

"There are endless generations in life, and Jiang Yue looks similar every year."

"Good poetry, good poetry!"

"I heard that this poem was written by a talented man named Su Cheng."

"Hey, you don't know, this talented Su has other poems!"

Su Cheng and others rode their horses to the restaurant. On the way, they heard many people talking about the poem last night. In just one night, this poem spread quickly in Chang'an City.

"Su Cheng, in just one night, your talent has spread throughout Chang'an!" Cheng Chumo exclaimed.

"Unexpected!" Su Cheng smiled slightly.

"Not only your talent, but today, we will be famous all over Chang'an for burning knives and wine!" Cheng Chumo excitedly said.
