Chapter Thirty-Six: The First Close Contact with Cheng Motou
When Cheng Lao Mo dragged Li Chengqian to the outside of the hall, he found a small person and said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, how did Lao Cheng just behave in the battle of the Confucians?" ”
How is it? Was that a tongue war just now? The shrews are more urbane than you just did. However, looking at the big nostrils of Cheng Motou, Li Chengqian didn't dare to say what was in his heart after all, but said helplessly: "Uncle and the heroic little nephew admire!" ”
"Hmm. The prince really has a vision. Lao Cheng stroked his short beard under his chin, nodded and said shamelessly.
"I wonder what Uncle is looking for his little nephew?" Li Chengqian just wanted to leave Lao Cheng's clutches as soon as possible at this time, so he didn't talk nonsense with Lao Cheng, and directly asked Cheng Yanjin for his purpose.
"Uh~, by the way, the prince almost forgot if he didn't say it. I don't know why the prince didn't sit at Lao Cheng's house when he left the palace a few days ago? Probably thinking that Li Chengqian was too short and it was inconvenient to bend down to talk to him, Lao Cheng simply lifted him up, poked at the white jade railing, and then asked him.
Li Chengqian, who was standing on the white jade railing, shook for a long time, finally stabilized his figure, and greeted the eight generations of ancestors of Lao Cheng in his heart before he spoke: "Uncle Cheng, it's not that the little nephew doesn't go, it's just that the little nephew is young and really doesn't know the way, and the place he goes depends on his cousin to lead the way. ”
Lying is as simple as drinking cold water for Li Chengqian, he didn't want to tell Cheng Yanjin that he didn't think of him at all, so he didn't hesitate to sell his eldest grandson Chong at the moment.
"Well, that makes sense." Lao Cheng still agrees with Li Chengqian's words, after all, an 8-year-old doll is not easy to make Lao Cheng look good, can he still remember the terrain of Chang'an.
After thinking about it, Cheng Motou said again: "Is there still a white stack in the prince's place?" ”
"Huh? White stacks? Li Chengqian was a little stunned when he heard this, but he didn't expect Lao Cheng to spend such a big deal just to ask himself if he had cotton?
"Little grade, I don't feel happy, there is something, there is nothing, I don't have it, I want to do it for so long!" This old Cheng is also used to ringing horses, turning his face faster than turning a book, and even questioning is similar to robbery.
"Yes, there are some." Li Chengqian wanted to say no, but he was afraid that this old devil would really rush to the 'Lanruo Temple' to check, so he could only admit that there were still some of them.
"Well, that's good, that's good." As if he had completed some major task, Cheng Motou nodded, and then said: "Then tomorrow, when the prince goes to court, he will bring a few hundred catties to Lao Cheng." ”
"A few hundred pounds?" Li Chengqian was taken aback by Lao Cheng's big mouth, 'Lanruo Temple' now doesn't have a total of a few hundred catties of cotton.
"What? Isn't it that the prince doesn't give Lao Cheng this face? The smile on Old Devil Cheng's face gradually retracted and replaced it with another face. If Li Chengqian was really only 8 years old, he would have to be scared and cry by this goblin.
"Ten pounds!" Seeing Lao Cheng's big face getting closer and closer to him, Li Chengqian felt as if he was being approached by a humanoid tyrannosaurus, and hurriedly surrendered and said.
It's not because Lao Cheng's expression is scary, but because this old guy seems to have not brushed his teeth when he comes out in the morning, and his mouth is full of overnight stinking.
"Ten pounds? What about the prince who sent Hanako? Three hundred catties, not even one catty. ”
"Fifteen, no more." Li Chengqian stood on the white jade railing with a small body, and the cold wind blew through the clothes and ribbons, like an immortal, but his little face was a little blue and lost some of his demeanor.
"Two hundred catties, as long as the prince agrees, Lao Cheng will immediately let the prince down." Cheng Motou is completely dealing with Li Chengqian with the attitude of an 8-year-old child.
"Twenty pounds at most, otherwise ......, otherwise I'd rather be beaten by my uncle." Seeing Lao Cheng's shameless posture, Li Chengqian simply turned his heart sideways and played the same trick with Lao Cheng - don't hesitate!
After a conversation, Cheng Yanjin and Li Chengqian were really chess opponents who would meet good talents, and the two of them made strange moves, and finally reached an agreement, forty pounds.
After the conditions were discussed, Lao Cheng took Li Chengqian off the white jade railing, poked him on the ground, stretched out his big face and said, "Amazing!" ”
Li Chengqian also hugged his small fist and replied, "Uncle Cheng admitted to letting go." ”
"Alas, it's not right to talk about this matter, I just scared the prince." Lao Cheng achieved his goal, and he no longer scared Li Chengqian.
"Uncle said that he was joking, his own son and nephew were joking, it was okay." Lao Cheng softened, and Li Chengqian naturally couldn't hold on hard.
"Actually, Uncle is also embarrassed, your Feifei sister at home cries cold every night, and Lao Cheng is also difficult. Originally, I planned to go to the East Market to buy some white stacks, but when I asked, I knew that they had already been sold out, so I had no choice but to make this decision. ”
Li Chengqian was stunned by Lao Cheng's father at first, but in an instant, he understood that this old killer had changed to sadness.
"Alas, Uncle Chengqian's difficulties understand that although there are some in the palace of Bai Diezi's little nephew, he also needs to think about his younger brothers and sisters, Mencius said: If you are poor, you will be good to yourself, and if you are good, you will be good to the world. The little nephew is also ......, it's difficult! "Who doesn't know how to play with sadness, Li Chengqian has never seen all kinds of misery in the later generations.
After a long silence, under the gaze of Li Chengqian's innocent eyes, Lao Cheng remained silent for a long time, and finally stood up, picked his big finger fiercely, gritted his teeth and said: "It is rumored that the prince is smart, and the old minister does not believe it, and today I will know ...... when I try it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really difficult!" ”
Li Chengqian also put away his sad face: "Let Uncle Cheng smile." ”
"The old minister takes his leave!" Fairy Cheng also knew that he couldn't do anything now, and after giving Li Chengqian a fist salute, he got up and left.
"Send Uncle Cheng!" The corners of Li Chengqian's mouth tugged at a hint of a smile, and at the same time he said politely.
However, just when Li Chengqian thought that everything was over, Lao Cheng's night-like voice came again: "The prince must not forget to promise Lao Chen, it is best to send things in the afternoon." ”
"Your Highness, Your Majesty said, let your side deal with it, and go to the Lizheng Palace." Just when Li Chengqian was standing in a daze, a fellow attendant turned out from the side and whispered to him.
"Huh? Oh! Okay, go as soon as it's good. Li Chengqian, who miscalculated the shamelessness of Lao Cheng, responded in a daze, and then mechanically turned around and followed the attendant and walked towards the Li Zheng Palace.
I really didn't expect that in the end, I still failed, and I was deceived by Cheng Lao Fairy.
These old people who can be mixed up in the court are really human spirits. Cheng Biting Jin is even more so, pretending to be a ruffian every day, and then pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, there seems to be no one in the entire Tang Dynasty who is more shrewd than Cheng Lao.
On the way to the Lizheng Palace, Li Chengqian has been entangled in the affairs of the court, from Wang Yushi to Cheng Biting Jin, from the eldest grandson Wuji to Kong Yingda, everyone's performance slowly emerged in his mind, and slowly he really tasted something.
