Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 514 Intimidation

How can there be such a thing that you can't even send gifts?

In his dreams, Li Tai wanted to give Su Cheng a big gift, so that Su Cheng would miss him.

So Li Tai insisted: "No, I gave it to Changle, you must accept it!"

Su Cheng is very speechless, let Changle accept what you gave to Changle, but Changle doesn't accept it himself, you let me accept it, am I stupid?

Just as the two pushed back and forth, a jet-black man emerged.

"My lord! My lord! I can see you now! My lord has greeted my lord!"

Su Cheng turned his head to examine, who is this man with a black head like charcoal?

Li Tai also looked at this jet-black man curiously for a while.

"My lord, my subordinate Xu Jingzong!" Xu Jingzong hurriedly signed up for himself.

"Old Xu? How did you become so hacked?" Su Cheng asked in surprise.

Xu Jingzong laughed and said, "Isn't this official busy building roads all the time? Every day, the wind and the sun make it turn black, which startles the father-in-law. It's all my fault."

It turned out that he got tanned because of road construction, so it can be seen that Xu Jingzong is really going all out!Su Cheng praised: "Old Xu, yes, I didn't expect you to be so devoted to your duty!"

Li Tai was also shocked. He got exposed like this for road construction, which shows that this official is really practical and capable!

Li Tai also nodded and said: "Master Xu is really a capable minister! It's really touching to be so dedicated to the road for the road construction!"

Xu Jingzong was waiting for this compliment, a reserved smile bloomed on his dark face, like a black chrysanthemum, Xu Jingzong quickly said: "The lower officials are just doing some errands, and it's all because the father-in-law is far-sighted. , from a strategic location, finally the concrete road from Chang'an to Luoyang was repaired before winter comes!"

"The road from Chang'an to Luoyang has been repaired? So fast?" Su Cheng was a little surprised.

To be honest, he was too busy for more than half a year, and almost forgot about it.

Xu Jingzong said with a smile: "Grandfather said that we can no longer build roads when winter comes, so everyone hurried, and finally the road was repaired before winter, and the next official hastened to announce the good news to you!"

"How's the quality? You can't catch up with the construction schedule and fail to pay attention to the quality, that's a waste of money!" Su Cheng asked sternly.

Xu Jingzong quickly said: "Don't worry, my lord. This is the first project of our construction company. Everyone is watching. No one dares to be sloppy. It is absolutely completed according to my lord's standards!"

These guys are all holding their breaths to prove themselves, and it is unlikely to be fooled by this kind of thing, Su Cheng nodded with a smile: "That's good, you have done a good job, Lao Xu, you have worked hard, my lord these six months Things are busy here, but I didn't take care of this side, you didn't slack off, that's very good, I am very pleased!"

Xu Jingzong cupped his hands and said with a smile: "It's all because the father-in-law arranged the arrangements properly. Under the wise leadership of the father-in-law, everyone worked hard, and the road construction was successfully completed before winter!"

Su Cheng nodded and smiled and said: "Okay, very good, I will ask for credit for you in front of His Majesty, how about this, you will enter the palace with me tomorrow to congratulate Your Majesty!"

When Xu Jingzong heard it, his face showed an uncontrollable surprise, and he cupped his hands again and again: "Thank you for your support! Thank you for your support!"

At this moment, the excitement and surprise in Xu Jingzong's heart is beyond words. When he came to announce the good news, he just hoped that the county magistrate could say a few words in front of the emperor, but he didn't expect that the county magistrate would take him directly to meet the emperor!

How can there be such a generous Shangguan?

"My father-in-law treats the subordinates so generously, and supports the subordinates so much. The subordinates are so grateful, there is really no way to repay them!" Xu Jingzong actually shed a few tears on his dark face, showing an expression of inexplicable gratitude.

A dark and dark man cried beside him, it was really awkward, if he lived in the later generations, he would look like a film king!

Su Cheng kicked Xu Jingzong's body, and said angrily: "Okay, okay, what does a big man look like crying? Go back and get ready. I will enter the palace with me early tomorrow morning to meet the saint."

"Yes, yes, I will retire, and I will come to wait for my father-in-law tomorrow morning!"

After Xu Jingzong bowed deeply, he left in a hurry.

Seeing the back of Xu Jingzong going away, Li Tai couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "A real countryman!"

National scholar?Su Cheng glanced sideways at Li Tai, and said with a smile: "Does King Wei think he is a scholar? Does King Wei know that Xu Jingzong used to be a bachelor of Qin Palace?"

Li Tai was surprised when he heard this, and said, "What? Xu Jingzong used to be a bachelor of Prince Qin's residence? No wonder he is so talented!"

Su Cheng smiled and said: "Yes, he used to be a bachelor of Qin Wangfu. After His Majesty ascended the throne, he became worse and worse. He was even assigned to a construction company to build roads. King Wei thought he was a unparalleled scholar. Do you think His Majesty Are you blind?"

Li Tai's expression changed when he heard this, he was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse, and said repeatedly: "Su Cheng, keep quiet, keep quiet, I never meant that!"

If this spreads to Father Emperor's ears, what's the deal?What would the royal father think?

Li Tai quickly explained: "I'm not talking about Xu Jingzong, I'm talking about you, you are truly unparalleled!"

Just now he really admired Xu Jingzong very much, felt that he was a talent, and he was so down-to-earth and hardworking, that he even thought of recruiting him.

At this moment, he was very afraid, because he was planning to praise Xu Jingzong in front of His Majesty, in front of the important officials in the court. This is called kindness, and Xu Jingzong would love him.

Now he is very lucky, glad that Su Cheng woke him up, otherwise he praised Xu Jingzong everywhere, what would others think?

It's okay, okay, he just praised Xu Jingzong in front of Su Cheng, at this moment Li Tai turned his head to look at Su Cheng, his eyes were full of longing.

It would be great if he could recruit Su Cheng. With Su Cheng advising him, why worry about not being able to bring down Li Chengqian?

Why is Li Sipang's gaze so creepy all of a sudden?

"Okay, go back, you, I won't send it off!" After speaking, Su Cheng immediately rushed back with a whip.

Only now did Li Tai wake up, wait a minute, what else does he seem to have forgotten?

Forget about presents!

The gift still hasn't been sent out!

Li Tai sighed, and walked towards Chang'an with his head downcast.

As soon as Su Cheng got off the horse, Princess Changle came up to meet her, pursed her lips and said with a smile: "Did Lang Jun meet the fourth brother?"

Su Cheng nodded and said, "Yes, I met you!"

Princess Changle told the whole story with a smile, Su Cheng nodded approvingly and said, "You are right!"

Su Cheng approached Princess Changle and said in a low voice, "It's okay to tell you, actually, Your Majesty's ambition..."

Before Su Cheng could finish speaking, Princess Changle's slender jade fingers were already printed on Su Cheng's lips, and he said with a smile: "Since the father and the emperor only told the Lang Jun and the Queen Mother, the Lang Jun should not tell me!"

Su Cheng hugged Princess Changle's slender waist, and sighed leisurely: "There is a good wife at home, what more can a husband ask for!"
