The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 42 Open One Eye, Close One Eye (Second)

Cheng Yaojin took the glass bottle and kept playing with it. He hummed a little song and went to his home.

If you get such a good thing, you will naturally have to show it off with Fang Xuanling.

It is also necessary to show off in front of the minister.

Enjoying the envious eyes of everyone, the heart is beautiful.

Shouldn't it roll over this time?
The more I think about it, the more joy I feel in my heart.

But before he was happy for a while, someone came to him.

"Lu Guogong, it's finally time for you, where have you been? Your Majesty is waiting for you in the palace!"

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

It was Fang Xuanling who was approaching, he took Cheng Yaojin's hand and said:
"Quickly enter the palace with me, otherwise Your Majesty will be angry!"

There are thousands of unwillingness in Cheng Yaojin's heart.

He was still holding the colored glaze in his hand, how could it still exist in the palace this time?
If Li Shimin asked, what would he do?
Send him or not?
"Wait, I'll go back first and then come out!"

He saw the door of his own house in front of him.

"What time is it, wait! Go! The carriage is coming!"

Fang Xuanling didn't care so much, and let Cheng Yaojin get on the carriage.

Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin immediately put Liuli in his arms.

Helpless!
Cheng Yaojin:  …

Because he was in a hurry, Fang Xuanling didn't pay much attention to Cheng Yaojin's little actions.

I didn't even see what was in his arms, I just thought that this guy's belly was a little bigger today.

Must be fat again!
"Well, what did your majesty say? Why are you so anxious to let us go to the palace?"

Cheng Yaojin asked.

"I don't know either. I just let us enter the palace and say it's something. I don't know anything else."

do not know?With the colored glass in his arms, Cheng Yaojin thought about it, and gave it to the soldiers outside the palace for safekeeping?No, it's not safe. If it breaks down or is stolen, what should I do?

will also be found.

At this time, Fang Xuanling sighed again.

"Maybe it's because of the recent increase in the expenditure of the national treasury, or because of taxes. Also, the murderer who assassinated the sixth prince before has not been found... Well, there are too many things recently, and it's a headache."

"Is that so?"

If that's the case, it's better to talk about it.

I'm afraid it's something else, like Li Er knows what he's doing.

……

In the afterglow, the carriage galloped into the palace.

They rushed all the way, but Cheng Yaojin's movements were a little twisted.

Because of Liuli's relationship, he is very difficult to act.

"Lu Guogong, what's wrong with you? You used to be a shooting star, but now you're like a woman? Hurry up!"

"No, no, let's go, Your Majesty is in a hurry."

Fang Xuanling didn't think too much, and then moved forward.

Cheng Yaojin probably regretted it a little, and he would not have taken any glass if he had known.Why take it at this time?Ugh……

In a blink of an eye, the two entered the Tai Chi Palace.

At this time, Li Shimin was in the imperial study.

When they entered, they saw Empress Zhangsun and Concubine Yang as well.

"Meet Your Majesty, Empress, Concubine Yang!"

The two bowed immediately.

"Free gift!"

Cheng Yaojin stepped forward and asked, "Why are you looking for us?"

When he said this, Li Shimin turned to him.

Looking at it, I found something different.

"What's in your arms, Zhijie?"

People with discernment have long seen that there is something in Cheng Yaojin's arms.

A nerd like Fang Xuanling couldn't see why.

"Yes, what is in your arms? I find it very strange."

Fang Xuanling said with some hindsight.

As for Empress Zhangsun and Concubine Yang, they also discovered that Cheng Yaojin was really different.

The shape of the belly is wrong.

Empress Changsun asked:

"Zhijie, aren't you sick?"

"This……"

Cheng Yaojin didn't know how to answer.

"You old man, hurry up, I'm going to be angry!"

Cheng Yaojin was speechless.

He directly took out the glass bottle.

When this thing came out, everyone was shocked.

After all, the quality of the glaze is so good, and the shape is beautiful, which is very rare.

It turned out to be hidden private goods, no wonder.

Empress Changsun took a closer look.

He said: "Your Majesty, this glass is beautiful in shape. It is a rare treasure. I have seen a similar one before, but its material is not as transparent as this one. In terms of quality, it is far worse! And it is even smaller. !"

"Oh? Is this thing really that good? Zhijie, what are you doing with this?"

Li Shimin asked.

Cheng Yaojin was a little depressed.

Originally, he wanted to keep it at home, but Fang Xuanling pulled it into the Tai Chi Palace.

None of this was what he wanted.

How to do it?

Now that it has been discovered, why not do a favor or ask for a credit or something.

"Actually, I want to dedicate this glass to Your Majesty! Surprise Your Majesty, but I didn't want to but was discovered."

These words made Li Shimin burst into laughter.

"Is that so? How can I take such a treasure?"

Eyes are staring at it.

Empress Zhangsun said, "Your Majesty, this is also the intention of a courtier. You will accept it. We just lack such an ornament in our palace."

It was obvious that she wanted it too.

Fang Xuanling also said on the side, "It's rare that Duke Lu has such a heart, so you will accept it, Your Majesty."

Cheng Yaojin wanted to die.

Can you still have fun?

But he also said, "Yeah, this is also what the minister has in mind."

Li Shimin did not hesitate.

"It's rare that you are so attentive, I am very pleased! Then I will accept it, someone! I will accept the things!"

"Yes!"

Then the eunuch took the glass bottle from Cheng Yaojin's hand.

You could feel his blood was dripping.

Don't...he said casually, don't take it seriously!But it's all said!

Seeing that the glass bottle was placed in a safe place, Li Shimin suddenly asked, "That's right! But where did this thing come from, you have to tell me?"

Cheng Yaojin thought to himself that the sixth prince could not be given out, otherwise the next thing would be difficult to handle.

The horseshoe thing will be yellow, he can't do anything.

What should I do?

So he thought about it and prepared to tell a lie.

That is, he said: "I received it from a Western merchant in Dongshi. The price is not much, only ten taels!"

"Oh?"

Everyone was shocked.

Twelve, that is simply too cheap.

"Where is that businessman? If I can obtain his method of production, my Datang economy will go to a higher level."

Li Shimin saw a business opportunity.

He deserves to be a generation of emperors, he thinks very carefully.

Empress Zhangsun and Concubine Yang said in unison, "Your Majesty is wise."

This made Cheng Yaojin difficult.

He could only say: "Hey, that businessman has left Chang'an!"

Everyone's expressions were a little lonely.What a pity.

Cheng Yaojin was afraid that Li Shimin would keep talking about this issue.

So he said, "Why is Your Majesty looking for me and Wei Guogong?"

Only then did Li Shimin realize that he had something to do with the two of them.
