The two walked while talking, and as they got closer and closer, Zheng Peng listened to the hearty laughter of Li Longji and several brothers.

Zheng Peng looked curiously at the princes who were known as unprecedented happiness as he walked, and when Zheng Peng's gaze fell on a man with a round face and big ears, his heart fluttered for a moment, as if he couldn't believe his eyes, and couldn't help but widen his eyes to see more clearly.

As if feeling Zheng Peng's gaze, the man with a round face and big ears turned his head, saw that it was Zheng Peng, smiled meaningfully, and soon talked and laughed with Li Longji on the side.

It's him!

Isn't this Wang Shen who I saw in Guixiang that day, why is he here? Could it be that he is a prince?

Wait, Wang Shen turned upside down to be King Shen, and he guessed that he was the son of the Taiyuan Wang family that day, and sighed that the aura of the children of the family was so powerful, it turned out that he was not a child of a wealthy family, but the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

If he is King Shen, then everything can be explained, it is said that King Shen has a chivalrous style and likes to travel around, and he has a very good personal relationship with Guo Yuanzhen, the old man is gone, it is normal to visit the family of the deceased, and the powerful guard group around him can also be explained.

It's really stupid, he gave himself a token with "Yi" written on it, which is Li Chengyi's logo.

Of course, all this is conjecture, but it is also simple to confirm the authenticity, Zheng Peng asked in a low voice: "Gonggong Gao, who is the one sitting on the right side of His Majesty?" ”

"Lord Shen, he is His Majesty's second brother." Colliers replied casually.

It's really him.

Zheng Peng faintly regretted a little, in order to find a way that day, I don't know how much energy was spent, and he forced himself to be the first flower hand in Pingkangfang, and he did a lot of things against his will.

If King Shen helps, he doesn't need to be a music official.

Fortunately, his luck is good, and he has Sulu Khan's "divine assist", and now he can barely be regarded as a little famous.

"Your Majesty, Zheng Peng has arrived." Colliers respectfully reported to Li Longji.

Zheng Peng followed the courtier's salute: "Weichen greets the emperor." ”

Li Longji was in a good mood, waved his hand and said, "Zheng Aiqing, no courtesy." ”

Zheng Peng thanked him, and under the guidance of Gao Lishi, he saluted several princes present one by one, and the last one to salute King Shen Li Chengyi.

"Zheng Peng, the judge of the Zuojiao Workshop, meet King Shen." Zheng Peng said respectfully.

Li Chengyi laughed, got up and walked over, and helped Zheng Peng up with his own hands: "Judge Zheng doesn't have to be polite, the ancients have clouds, and they should be impressed when they don't see each other for three days, but I didn't expect that a merchant that day would be a five-grade judge by himself, which is really surprising." ”

"I didn't know it was the prince that day, and I was disrespectful." Zheng Peng hurriedly apologized.

"Those who don't know are not guilty, and besides, this king can't remember what Judge Zheng did wrong." Li Chengyi said lightly.

Li Longji was a little surprised and said, "Second Emperor Brother, you and Zheng Aiqing are old acquaintances?" ”

"Sort of, last year, after passing through Weizhou, I went to Guixiang to see how the Guo family was doing, and I saw Judge Zheng on Guixiang Street, and Judge Zheng was still a small merchant at that time..."

In the end, Li Chengyi said with some emotion: "What moved a certain person is not that the things made by Judge Zheng are delicious, but his unique views on food, the life of the people of the Tang Dynasty is better, but it is not so good that everyone can eat and drink, in the people, many people still have prejudices against the people, such as pork is one of them." ”

"Many people think that pork is cheap meat, some people buy it secretly, some people are afraid of other people's eyes, put good and cheap pork and do not eat, change to eat relatively expensive mutton, some places are not suitable for raising sheep, in order to eat mutton forced sheep, destroy crops and woodland, Zheng Peng said that the food is delicious as long as it is cooked properly, and there is no difference between high and low."

Li Chengqi said with some emotion: "I have heard this kind of saying, the people say that they will be cheap if they eat pork, and their children and grandchildren will not have a good life in the future, I witnessed a small official in Qizhou, put cheap pork and do not eat, the whole family eats mutton, because mutton is expensive, you can only buy a little every day, but the population is large, every time you pay to eat, the children rush to eat, and other aspects also have to save expenses, and the family lives very tightly." ”

"Yao Xiang also mentioned this matter to me" Li Longji said: "Pigs are easy to breed, and they are not picky to eat, unlike sheep, which need to be stocked, and many places in Datang are not suitable for stocking, if it is transported long-distance, the price of mutton will soar, which is not conducive to people's livelihood, and the imperial court has repeatedly promoted the consumption of more pigs, chickens, ducks and fish, and the effect is not great, I can't imagine that Zheng Aiqing will change the people's views on pork with practical actions, which is very good." ”

Zheng Peng said a little embarrassedly: "I was just for my livelihood that day, I didn't think so much, and I am ashamed to praise Your Majesty." ”

came to offer a bicycle, I didn't expect to meet the old man, let alone that this old man was still a prince, and the most unexpected thing was that Li Chengyi also told all his old bottom in public.

At this time, Zheng Peng was not thinking about being ashamed of being a little merchant, but about his acquaintance with Guo Fu, did this Shen Wang Ye contribute to it?

King Shen left overnight that night, should have taken advantage of no one's attention to go to the Guo Mansion to visit the family of his deceased friend, would he inadvertently mention himself again, so as to provide some opportunities for himself to cooperate with the Guo Mansion? Or did he inadvertently mention it, so that Guo Ketang noticed himself and laid the foundation for cooperation in advance?

If this is the case, King Shen is definitely his own nobleman.

Just when Zheng Peng's thoughts were like an electric turn, Li Chengqi said with interest: "Judge Zheng, although you are forced by your livelihood, you think that your talent can do a lot of things, and you are not afraid of being ridiculed as a trader?" ”

"Back to the prince's words, Weichen thinks that it is a matter for the country and the people that businessmen can adjust whether they have or not, pay taxes for the court, as long as they operate honestly, as long as they benefit the country and the people, it is a good thing, and I don't think so much about the rest." Zheng Peng said thoughtfully.

It's hard to hide this from someone with a heart, and it's useless to hide it, it's better to be open.

In fact, Zheng Peng didn't think there was anything to do, like these princes here, which one of them did not do business behind it, I heard that Chunhualou was still the property of King Shen Li Chengyi.

Li Longji nodded and said: "That's right, what is good for the country and the people is a good thing, this sentence is too good." ”

When Zheng Peng heard this, a big stone in his heart suddenly fell to the ground, and Li Longji's words were equivalent to defining himself, and he was not afraid that someone would attack him with this matter in the future, so he hurriedly thanked him when he heard the words.

"Having said so much, the most exciting thing is that the second emperor brother said that teppanyaki, and my saliva flowed when I heard it, third emperor brother, why don't you let Judge Zheng get us an teppanyaki, let me wait and taste the delicious taste of the world that the second emperor brother said." Li Longye is a foodie, so he couldn't help but speak.

"Yes, listening to what the second emperor brother said so well, I was also tempted." Li Longfan echoed.

The two younger brothers said this, and Li Chengyi said it so deliciously, Li Longji nodded and said: "Okay, it's rare that the two imperial brothers are so interested, then there is Lao Zheng Aiqing." ”

"Don't dare, this is Weichen's honor." Zheng Peng immediately responded.

It is said that Li Longji is very good to his brothers, can share sorrows and sorrows, and can also share joys and sorrows, Zheng Peng can see that Li Longji is not very interested in the teppanyaki that Li Chengyi said, after all, he is the son of heaven, and he always has to pay attention to his image, but for the sake of his brother, he finally agreed, this kind of brotherhood is really not false.

In fact, Li Longji is really sincere, because with his status, there is no need to act again.

Li Chengqi looked at Zheng Peng, and suddenly smiled and said, "A certain idea." ”

"Brother Huang, if you have any ideas, come quickly." As soon as Li Longji heard Li Chengqi's words, he immediately took it.

It is no exaggeration to say that without Li Chengji's initiative to give way, in the era when the elders are not passed on to the young, no matter how talented Li Longji is, he will not be able to sit on the throne.

"Didn't Judge Zheng offer a newly made bicycle, this is more powerful than a horse, the fifth emperor brother likes food, the second emperor brother likes to listen to new songs, it is better to be satisfied all at once, why not let people sing and dance on the side, I will listen to the song, play with the bicycle, eat the teppanyaki recommended by the second emperor brother, listen to the play and eat, it is definitely a great pleasure in life." Li Chengqi said with a smile.

"It's still the royal brother who thinks thoughtfully, and this plan is even wonderful." Li Longfan clapped his hands and applauded.

Li Chengyi laughed: "I was hesitating just now, whether to watch the car or the play, I couldn't make up my mind in my heart, or the imperial brother was thoughtful." ”

"Okay, let's do it." Li Longji made a final decision, and the matter was settled.

Gao Lishi understood, and said to Zheng Peng with a smile: "Judge Zheng, it is rare that Your Majesty and several princes are so happy, thank you for your hard work." ”

"Don't dare, it's an honor to be a courtier." Zheng Peng hurriedly said.

Go to the palace to perform singing and dancing, that is the matter of the inner teaching workshop and the pear orchard, and you also need tools and ingredients to prepare teppanyaki, the ingredients can be prepared at any time, and the tools are not easy to find for a while, but fortunately, Zheng Peng has prepared a set at home, and when you want to eat, you can just let Gao Lishi send someone to get it.

It takes some time to prepare, so it's time to present the carefully prepared bicycle.

Li Longfan looked in the direction of the door with some expectation, and his eyes showed a light of expectation.

Purple lightning thunder is Li Longji's best horse, Li Longfan asked for it a few times and was reluctant, how good Li Longfan knew very well, after losing to Sulu Khan's horse, he also made the people of the sudden rider look down on him, and he didn't expect Zheng Peng to come forward in time, when Zheng Peng poured out a bunch of broken wood with his pocket, Li Longfan almost didn't laugh, thinking that there were people in Datang who were more pretending to be forced than himself.

The results of the comparison surprised Li Longji, the bicycle won with an indisputable absolute advantage, Li Longfan, who liked novelties at that time, was tempted, and now he heard Zheng Peng's dedication, he was very moved, but he was a little worried.

The royal things that are paid tribute must belong to Li Longji, and with Li Longji's personality, the good ones will be given priority to the eldest and second brothers, and they will be the last.....

However, Li Longfan's face quickly became happy again, because he saw that the five Ouchi guards were each carrying a beautifully shaped bicycle striding over, and here, it happened to be the five brothers.
