Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

"Madam, you also know that I, Chu Mo, regard money as dirt. If it were normal, let alone these golds, even if I, Chu Mo, had all my net worth, I would not even frown. .”

"But you have also seen the current situation. All my shops in Chang'an City have been confiscated by that boy Li Chengqian. I still have such a large group of people following me to eat. If I give all the money to you, you will How can I give an account to those who follow me faithfully?”

"What's more, you don't know that construction has begun in Lingnan, and there are places to spend money everywhere. Without this windfall, how will the people who migrated with you live?"

After Yang Hongyu heard the report from the black commander, she wanted to fight for some benefits for the Taoist sect. Unexpectedly, she just said a few words and was overwhelmed by Chu Mo's many arguments.

"No, Chu Mo, you just said it today. You must give my master and the others their share. No matter what, you must not lose it."

"Also, my master and our sisters have basically become your handymen now. You make a lot of money there, but we don't even see a single copper. Don't you feel a bit guilty?"

Chu Mo blinked his eyes, looked at Yang Hongyu pretending to be innocent and said:

"Madam, I didn't expect you to have such an idea. All along, I thought that my things are your things, and your things are also mine. We don't distinguish between each other, but I didn't expect that you would It hurts me so much to be so clearly separated from each other.”

As he said that, he pinched himself hard, and tears instantly came to his eyes.

Seeing Chu Mo like this, Yang Hongyu's heart trembled slightly. She was about to explain a few words, but suddenly remembered her sister Yang Hongqian's words: "This guy is a loach. You must not trust him. If you trust him, you will lose."

So he asked suspiciously: "Chu Mo, are you telling the truth? All your things belong to me?"

Chu Mo nodded with certainty and said: "It's absolutely true, my things belong to my wife, and my wife's things also belong to me."

Seeing Chu Mo like this, Yang Hongyu became more and more alert, hurriedly waved her hands and said:

"No, no, I remember you said before that your things are mine, and mine are still mine. How come it has become yours now? Are you trying to help me?"

Uh. . .

Chu Mo didn't expect Yang Hongyu to come back to her senses, and immediately smiled awkwardly and said: "Well, madam, don't I think that our relationship is already very harmonious, and we have reached the point where we are not angry with each other, so I said the wrong thing."

"Oh, really. Since you said the wrong thing, then, in order to show your repentance, now you can give half of the gold as an apology."

Ga. . . .

Like a wild duck that was suddenly grabbed by the neck, Chu Mo screamed strangely for half a sound, and then stopped abruptly.

"Well, madam, as I said just now, there are many places where I need to use my money. Can you please give me some slack?"

"No, your business is your own. My master's share is indispensable no matter what."

Yang Hongyu said decisively, directly blocking Chu Mo's words.

Seeing that his wife was in need of money and would commit domestic violence if she didn't give her money, Chu Mo immediately pretended to be pitiful and said:

"Madam, you don't know something. Our family is going bankrupt now. I have already spent all the gold. Even if I want to, I can't come up with that much money."

Seeing that Yang Hongyu was getting angry again, Chu Mo hurriedly said:

"But don't worry, madam, someone will send us money soon. When the time comes, it won't be too late for me to make up for Master's share."

"Are you sure someone will give you money? Will you be able to make up for my master's share by then?"

Yang Hongyu frowned and asked with great distrust.

"It's absolutely true, madam, why don't we make a bet."

"There's no need to bet. Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. Hum, Chu Mo, I'm warning you, if you dare to lie to me this time, then I will let you know what the anger of a grandmaster is."

After getting the answer she wanted, Yang Hongyu immediately rejected the bet proposal.

Seeing that he couldn't deceive the other party, and Chu Mo believed that according to Yang Hongyu's current temper, even if he won by then, not to mention the benefits, he might even get beaten up by the other party, so he immediately gave up the idea of ​​deceiving the other party.

At the same time, when Li Chengqian and Changsun Wuji were thinking hard about how to get Chu Mo to show up for negotiations.

The prince's residence welcomed a distinguished guest.

This person is none other than the most distinguished person in Chang'an City today - Queen Changsun.

Ever since she became the queen, Empress Changsun has adhered to the iron law that the harem must not interfere with politics. She has always been cautious in her words and deeds, and basically does not participate in the affairs of the court.

Although she also heard about some of Li Chengqian's ridiculous deeds during this time, she also knew how disappointing her son was.

Originally, she was still thinking that the current situation was within control, and with her younger brother and a group of ministers assisting her, she should not be able to poke a hole in the sky before His Majesty returned to the army.

However, what she didn't expect was that just a short time after his departure, His Majesty sent back an urgent order to collect food and grass in Chang'an City. It was obvious that the future must be met with insurmountable difficulties.

It also indirectly explains the current shortage of food and grass in Datang.

At first, she was still worried that her son had offended all the merchants in Chang'an, and would definitely not be able to get so much food and grass in a short time.

But unexpectedly, within just a few days, news came that His Highness the Prince had not only collected the food and fodder, but was also preparing to transport it to the front line today.

When Empress Changsun heard the eunuch's report, she was very happy that her son had collected enough food and grass so quickly.

But in just one night, it was reported again that His Highness the Crown Prince had been deceived, and all the grain and grass he purchased were sand.

When she heard the news, Empress Changsun almost ran out of breath and rushed directly to the prince's residence, severely reprimanding her useless son.

As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, he could actually allow people to manipulate food and grass under his nose.

Fortunately, this batch of food has not yet been sent to the front line, so it can be remedied.

If this batch of sand and soil is really used as food and grass to be transported to the front line, even if his father comes forward, he will never be able to save him.

Despite the continuous stimulation, Queen Changsun could not sit still no matter how reserved she was.

She felt that if she didn't take action this time, she might lose her son directly.

So, she no longer adhered to the bullshit iron rule that the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, and went directly out of the palace and came to the prince's palace.
