Datang: Destroy Tang Taizong Li Xiao at the beginning

"The boy promised the king of Yue, how can he not keep his word?"

"Take care of your own troubles!"

"No matter how much it is, it's better to borrow a little, otherwise, if the King of Yue goes out to publicize it and our Cheng family doesn't keep the promise, then what's your face?"

"He dares? I, Cheng Yaojin, are not easy to bully!"

"The layout is too small!"

Cheng Chumo pretended to be serious: "Father, think about the status of the king of Yue. It is difficult for ordinary people to make friends, but we only need to spend such a small amount of money. It is a stable and profitable business."

"And based on what I know about the King of Yue, this man has a small belly, if he doesn't borrow it, he will really speak ill of our family in front of outsiders."

"Ordinary people wait for you to ignore, but if your majesty knows, how can you have the good fruit of your father? So please think twice!"

Hearing what he said, Cheng Yaojin was furious, but finally calmed down, and said through gritted teeth, "Go to the cashier to get 2000 taels of silver!"

"Good Le!"

Cheng Chu walked away with a smile on his face.

……

At the gate of Cheng Mansion.

"Brother Li, I really tried my best. You know that my father is an iron rooster. I tried my best and only got 500 taels of silver."

Cheng Chumo looked guilty, paused and continued: "You take the 500 taels first, and treat it as my repayment for helping me out today, and the remaining 500 taels give you a little more time, and I will give it to you even if I sell it. Got it together."

Anyone who sees this pitiful appearance will feel sympathy.

But Li Xiao already knew the character of this fat man, so he wouldn't believe him at all.

"How about I wait for you for a while?" Li Xiao said thoughtfully.

"Wait for what?"

"Small the pot and sell the iron, since you said so, I naturally believe that you can do it, do you need manpower?"

Cheng Chumo: "..."

He had never seen such a brazen person.

Borrowing money is still taken for granted, is it okay to be a person?

Although he had already scolded Li Xiao more than eight hundred times in his heart, Cheng Chumo still smiled and said: "It seems that brother Li really needs money urgently, but I only have 500 taels here, and it may not be enough to sell the iron. I really can't help you with this favor." .”

"It's not 500 taels, it's 2000 taels!"

Li Junxian suddenly said expressionlessly.

Hearing this, Li Xiao couldn't help being happy.

This fat man really has a good plan.

"Cough cough..."

Cheng Chumo coughed in embarrassment, and said hastily, "Master Li, you must have made a mistake. I obviously only took 500 taels of silver."

"In the study, Cheng Guogong promised 2000 taels of silver, I heard it." Li Junxian said still calmly.

Hearing this, Cheng Chumo was extremely embarrassed.

Especially when he touched Li Xiao's eyes, he could only force a smile.

"Brother Cheng, I didn't expect you to be so generous and help me borrow 2000 taels of silver!"

"It's not too late, why don't you go get it soon?"

Li Xiao smiled happily and patted Cheng Chumo on the shoulder.

"No..." Cheng Chumo became anxious when he heard this, and quickly said, "Didn't we agree on 1000 taels of silver? When..."

"That's why Brother Cheng was righteous, knowing that I was in urgent need of money, he even borrowed an extra 1000 taels. You are such a good man!"

Li Xiao interrupted Cheng Chumo's words and said solemnly.

"I……"

"I know you can't wait, go and get the silver!"

Li Xiao interrupted Cheng Chumo again.

Cheng Chumo was about to cry at this moment, and said with an aggrieved face: "Brother Li, at least leave me some money, I just hope that this money will be chic and happy!"

"What kind of money do you keep? If you have time, come to my Lantian Villa as a guest. You don't need to spend money, and I will keep you happy." Li Xiao said impatiently.

Cheng Chumo's eyes lit up: "You said that!"

"As I said, as long as you come, you can eat and drink for free." Li Xiao said very proudly.

"Wait, I'll go get the silver."

Cheng Chumo turned and went back to the house.

Free food and drink?

If you don’t eat poverty, your father’s surname is not Cheng!

Cheng Chumo was extremely happy.

This deal is a bargain.

Because at the end of the day, Li Xiao still had to return the money to him.

This free food and drink is completely free!

Afterwards, Cheng Chumo handed over 2000 taels of silver to Li Xiao with a face full of pain.

Seeing Li Xiao's leaving back, Cheng Chumo looked extremely aggrieved.

The money I just got is gone.

Not a penny was left.

Just as he was about to return home, two people walked over from the other side of the street.

"Young Master Cheng!"

When they saw Cheng Chumo, they immediately shouted excitedly.

Cheng Chumo turned around, and when he saw these people, he was stunned, and a bad premonition welled up in his heart.

"Mr. Cheng, the villain has found you. You had a total of eight taels of silver for the wine before. You may have forgotten it when you left in a hurry."

The people who came were the shopkeeper of Yunyan Restaurant and the shop waiter, and they all looked at Cheng Chumo with flattering faces at this time.

"Didn't my friend pay the bill? Don't try to trick me like a child!" Cheng Chumo said impatiently.

"Your friend didn't pay the bill..." the shopkeeper said with a wry smile.

No bill paid!

When Cheng Chumo heard these words, he only felt a heart-wrenching pain in his chest.

After working together for a long time, Li Xiao didn't help him out at all.

Not only that, but also took the opportunity to trick him with 2000 taels of silver.

But he is still grateful to Li Xiao.

This is completely belonging to being sold and giving money to others.

"hateful!"

Cheng Chu silently looked at the end of the street and clenched his fists.

He swears in his heart that he must destroy Lantian Villa in order to avenge himself!

"Sir?"

"No money!" Cheng Chumo said with a dark face, angrily, "If you want money, go to him!"

"This..." The shopkeeper was very embarrassed, "You are the son of Lu Guogong, what status do you have, so don't make things difficult for the shop."

"and many more!"

Cheng Chumo's expression changed, and he quickly asked, "How do you know my identity?"

The shopkeeper replied: "This is thanks to your friend..."

"What did he say?!"

Cheng Chumo gritted his teeth and shouted: "Li Xiao! You're worth a thousand dollars! I and you are at odds!"

"What's the shouting at the gate?"

Suddenly, a carriage drove over.

Immediately afterwards, a graceful lady got off the carriage.

"mother?"

When Cheng Chumo saw the lady, he looked at the shopkeeper next to him, and his legs trembled involuntarily.

"Mother, the baby has something else to do, so I won't accompany you."

Cheng Chumo ran away, and after running a few steps, he still didn't forget to turn his head and shout: "Boy these two days... no, I don't have time to come back for half a month."

"Where are you going, you brat?" the woman shouted angrily.

"Lantian Villa, don't come to me!"

Cheng Chumo ran even faster.

At this time, the shopkeeper hurriedly bowed his head and came to the woman, and said respectfully: "Mrs. Cheng, the younger one is the shopkeeper of Yunyan Tower. Mr. Cheng was in a hurry and forgot to pay the bill. Look..."

When the woman heard this, she was furious and shouted angrily, "Cheng Chumo, stop for me!"

In the distance, Cheng Chumo heard the words, and was so frightened that the souls of the dead trembled. Without saying a word, he ran away...

Chapter 54: The Immortal Problem

Li Xiao left the east gate of Chang'an City, and drove towards the southeast with more than 200 people.

Li Junxian found Zhao Yuntian, the commander of the forbidden army, at this time.

"Commander Li, what are your orders?"

Zhao Yuntian was very polite to Li Junxian.

"I am no longer the commander of the Imperial Army, but now I am the bodyguard of His Royal Highness the King of Yue."

Li Junxian said sternly: "Commander Zhao, I hope you understand that His Highness has a special status that involves the interests of many people and is always in danger, so you must always maintain a high degree of vigilance."

"Once there is any situation that endangers His Highness, you can kill it first and act later to kill the danger in its infancy."

"Subordinates understand!" Zhao Yuntian said solemnly.

"Well, that's good." Li Junxian nodded.

……

Lantian Villa is located ten miles southeast of Chang'an.

To the north is the Bahe River, and not far to the east is Lantian City.

With a radius of dozens of miles, they are all extremely open, mostly plains and low hills, and there is no shortage of water sources, so the agricultural products are quite abundant.

main entrance.

Li Xiao got off the carriage.

In front of you is a towering wall and a gate.

At the door, many servants lined up in two rows and stood quietly.

"This place is really nice."

Li Xiao looked at the surrounding environment, the green plants were lush, the breeze blowing in gave people a cool feeling, and there was a trace of plant fragrance in the air.

When he came here, he saw the sketches here.

The whole villa has a huge scope, not only including some small hills, lakes and woodlands, but also a grassland, just like a resort town.

And this huge villa will become his private domain from now on.
