Chapter 588 The Gap
Stopping his movements, Cheng Chu muttered silently for a while, then threw off his arms and started making mud.

A stick was in Cheng Chumo's hand, stirring the mud quickly, like a live mixer.

Walking aside, Li Zheng said to Xu Jingzong, "Go on."

Xu Jingzong said again: "This time, Mou pretended to be a Tubo merchant. He just arrived in Chang'an this morning. I have already met him. He even took in a few children."

Li Zheng took out a letter from his home and handed it to Xu Jingzong, "You entrust someone to send this letter to Tubo and hand it to Lu Dongzan."

Xu Jingzong received the letter and said: "Then I will go back to Chang'an first."

After they left, Li Zheng came to Cheng Chumo's side again.

Watching him stir the mud, the stick was stirring rapidly in the mud, and due to the excessive force, sporadic mud splashed out of the pit from time to time.

Looking at Cheng Chumo's cheeks flushed again, looking at the mud was like watching life and death again.

The eyeballs are almost bleeding.

"Brother Chu Mo, stop for a moment."

Only then did Cheng Chumo stop mixing the mud. Li Zheng observed the changes in the mud, and it was indeed much thicker than when he mixed the mud before.

He took out a shovel and dug out all the mud from the pit and spread it on the road.

Looking at Cheng Chumo's gloomy expression, Li Zheng asked, "Brother Chumo, what's on your mind?"

Cheng Chumo is a straight steel man, the expression on his face has always been simple since he met him.

Seeing that the other party didn't speak, Li Zheng said again: "Brother Chu Mo, didn't you get beaten by dad?"

Cheng Chumo looked at Li Zheng in surprise, "How do you know?"

While paving the concrete, Li Zheng said: "Brother Chu Mo is straightforward, he hates evil like hatred, he laughs when he is happy, and gets angry when he is unhappy. Whenever Brother Chu Mo is beaten by your old man, there will be this kind of expression on his face." The melancholy that hurts spring and autumn."

程处默抬头看着天空说道:“婚事已经定下来了,我要娶孔颖达的孙女,其实我本意是不愿意的,只是刚顶嘴了一句被家里的老货被揍了。”

Li Zheng took a deep breath, "Just talk back and do it?"

Cheng Chumo also had a sad face, "That's right, I don't know where he got so angry, it wasn't like this before."

Li Zheng paved the concrete carefully and said, "Maybe it's because you eat too much chili."

"Yes!" Cheng Chumo patted his thigh and stood up, "I'm going to find Sun Simiao for some gunpowder."

Cheng Yaojin looks like a tall and thick guy, but he is actually smarter than anyone else in his life.

Cheng Chumo didn't get the shrewdness of his old man, but felt a little reckless.

Changan
Li Shimin returned to the Lizheng Hall after finishing the day's memorials in the Ganlu Hall.

When Empress Changsun saw Li Shimin coming back, she handed over a letter and said, "Your Majesty, this is a letter from Jingyang."

After sitting down, Li Shimin took the letter and read it.

Seeing Li Shimin's tangled expression, Empress Changsun also let out a long sigh, "Li Zheng happened to set up a name, is this asking His Majesty for an account?"

"I went to Jingyang, my daughter asked me for a debt, and now my son-in-law is also asking me for a debt, I..." Li Shimin held the letter in his hand and held his forehead in pain.

Empress Changsun chuckled twice and said, "When I went to live in Jingyang for two months, Li Zheng asked for [-] guan, and even sent this letter."

Li Shimin put the letter on the table and said: "Guanyin maidservant, do you think that my good deeds will not be rewarded."

"Why did your Majesty say this?"

"I haven't treated Li Zheng badly, have I?"

"really."

"Then why did he and Lizhi..."

Empress Changsun said with a smile: "Your Majesty also knows what kind of person Li Zheng is, so let's take it as a joke."

Li Shimin put the letter aside, anyway, I want to see how brave Li Zheng is to come to collect debts from me, if he has the ability, he will come to pick it up in person!

The eldest grandson returned home, where a group of children from aristocratic families were sitting.

Taking one gulp after another to drink the mulled wine, Chang Sun Chong also listened to the chatter of these people.

"Mr. Changsun went to the border and caught Xinxin, but His Majesty just gave it to a leading deputy general."

"The deputy general of the leading army guard is an idler with no real power. According to the rewards in the army, the eldest grandson shouldn't go to the leading army guard if he solves such a big case."

The leading guard is the one who guards the curfew, let alone a lieutenant general.

Duan Lun listened to a group of people talking loudly, just like what Li Zheng said, Yan Qinli was indeed promoted by His Majesty to Zuo Zuo Lang.

It is also certain that Chang Sun Chong will not have a good result this time.

Zhao Guogong's son is a royal relative, but he is only a lieutenant general of the leading army guard. It is indeed a bit unexpected. It seems that Li Shimin also has opinions on Changsun Chong.

Duan Lun looked outside the door, since he entered the door of Changsun's house, he has not seen Changsun Wuji until now.

"Brother Duan, what do you think?"

Hearing someone ask himself, Duan Lun raised his glass and took a sip of wine, "If you want me to say that the eldest grandson guards the border and goes out to arrest people, it is all for the Tang Dynasty, for your Majesty and for the community. It's for Datang."

"For Datang!" Someone echoed and toasted.

Duan Lun continued: "If you want to talk about His Majesty's decision this time, I do have some ideas."

Sun Chong, who was sitting in the upper seat, looked at Duan Lun.

Everyone also looked at Duan Lun.

Duan Lun opened the mouth and said: "Since Li Zheng made his fortune, it has only been a few years since Li Zheng was a small Jingyang Ling to the current Chang'an Ling. , he still fulfilled his duties as a minister in the province! But what about Li Zheng! What did he do, such as marrying Princess Changle, so compared to the eldest grandson, in what way is he inferior to the eldest grandson? His Majesty’s decision is really true. It is biased!"

"Yes, I think so too. Who is Li Zheng? He is a child of a rural man. How can he compare with the eldest grandson."

The authorities are confused by the bystanders, Duan Lun looked at the group of people in front of him.

After such an uproar, these people quickly pointed their finger at Li Zheng.

Duan Lun took a sip of his drink with a smile, these people had only so much ability, they could only curse Li Zheng here.

In Duan Lun's view, the performance of these people is very incompetent.

It's just a group of wine and meat.

Changsun Chong is surrounded by these people, what can he fight with Li Zheng?
Who is by Li Zheng's side?Zhang Gongjin, Li Shimin's counselor, Xu Jingzong, one of the eighteen scholars of the Qin Palace, Li Yifu, Li Chunfeng, Yan Liben, Sun Simiao...

Even now Li Ji and Li Junxian are always in Jingyang.

Who is around Li Zheng, and who is around Chang Sun Chong.

The environment is different, and the people you come into contact with are different.

Sometimes the influence of others is great.

Seeing that everyone was talking enthusiastically and no one paid attention to himself sitting in the corner, Duan Lun stood up calmly and left here.
