Datang Happy King

Chapter 66

Although it is necessary to prepare for going to Jiangnan, it is not too much preparation for Chu Feng.

Qin Huaiyu, Cheng Chumo, Du Ke, and Qin Yumo went with Chu Feng. Originally, Li Lizhi also wanted to go.

However, considering that she was too young, and Empress Changsun was unwilling, so she gave up.

For this reason, Chu Feng also specially agreed to bring some interesting things from Jiangnan to Li Lizhi, which made Li Lizhi reluctantly agree.

A group of five people set off by land, and no one saw them off. On the contrary, they walked very low-key.

"My son-in-law, Yuan has been waiting for you for a long time."

Not long after leaving Chang'an City, Chu Feng saw Yuan Tiangang not far away greeting him under a big tree.

"Master Yuan, what are you waiting for me?" Chu Feng was a little confused.

I am going to solve the problem of grain merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is best not to use my official status.

This Yuan Tiangang didn't study the destiny astrology and push back pictures in the palace with Li Chunfeng, he went out of the palace and waited for what to do.

And generally speaking, aren't the two of them the same as good friends? Could it be that they still act separately now?

"Naturally, His Majesty is worried about you, so he specially asked Yuan to accompany you." Yuan Tiangang said with a smile.

"Well, Master Yuan, Huaiyu has always known that you are unparalleled in physiognomy, but His Majesty only let you come alone. Could it be that you are also good at martial arts?" After hearing Yuan Tiangang's words, Qin Huaiyu looked at Yuan Tiangang even more puzzled and asked. stand up.

"No way, you are still a master of martial arts, so you can teach me."

When Cheng Chumo heard this, he was naturally more excited and looked at Yuan Tiangang with his eyes shining.

"Why do I not believe it?" Du Ke looked suspicious.

"Haha, don't you all know this by then?" Yuan Tiangang said with a smile.

"Regardless of whether Lord Yuan knows martial arts or not, since His Majesty sent you here, there must be some deep meaning."

"So, we also have a caretaker along the way."

Chu Feng looked at Yuan Tiangang and said seriously.

The records about Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang in history are all false and true, and the descriptions are all miraculous.

So it doesn't matter whether Yuan Tiangang knows martial arts or not, he believes that Li Shimin must have his intentions.

A group of six people continued to set off and traveled a long way before arriving at the Wei River. Chu Feng glanced at it and couldn't help sighing.

This is the Wei River, less than forty miles away from Chang'an City, which shows how proud the Turkic people were back then.

It's no wonder that these Turkic people feel so superior to others nowadays.

After all, they had approached the city two years ago, and they could conquer the capital of Datang with just a raise of their hands.

Perhaps in the eyes of Jieli Khan, if he was able to lead the army to Weishui, he can do the same now.

Even as long as he wants, he can enter Chang'an City at any time.

The weather in August and September is still somewhat hot and dry, and obvious traces can still be seen in the places where the locust plague was involved.

It can be seen that this locust plague is severe, which is why almost every locust plague in history is a catastrophe.

But in every locust plague, someone will take the opportunity to make this kind of disaster fortune.

Chu Feng doesn't think he is a saint, but he looks down on those unscrupulous people who have no bottom line.

"Chu Feng, if it wasn't for you, I'm afraid we could still see locusts everywhere." Qin Huaiyu looked around and couldn't help sighing.

"Yes, locusts have caused disasters for many years, but one person dared to eat them. Now it has become a delicacy. I am afraid that in the future, the harm of locust plagues will be less than people."

Du Ke also said with a smile at this time.

He really likes the fried locusts in Chufeng Gourmet Shop, especially after Chufeng made some seasonings and added them, it was even more delicious.

"You're still polite, don't you just love to eat." Cheng Chumo immediately said with a smile.

All along, Cheng Chumo liked to fight against Du Ke, anyway, it didn't affect the friendship between him and Du Ke.

"Fatty man, you can eat better than me, and you still have the face to say that you don't look at you like that." Du Ke looked at Cheng Chumo and countered.

Although it was said to be a hurry along the way, everyone was relaxed and happy.

……

"Second Uncle, keep an eye on Chu Feng for me. After I recover, I will make him lie on the floor like me and cannot move."

"No, I want him to lie down for ten days and half a month before he can vent his anger."

Lu Fan looked at his second uncle and said, anyone can feel the anger of buying shares.

But all of this is not incomprehensible. When did Lu Fan suffer like this when he was in Fan Yang.

Even Fan Yang's parents would call him Mr. Lu, Young Master Lu when they saw him.

But now, it was designed to be beaten up directly.

How could he bear such a disgrace?
"Fan'er, you should cultivate well. If you want to deal with Chu Feng, you may have to wait for a long time. He has left Chang'an now."

"Leaving Chang'an?" Lu Fan suddenly struggled to get up.

"Where did he go, did he want to escape, second uncle, you must not let him go, I haven't taken revenge yet?"

Although Lu Fan felt a little pain from the wound, he couldn't care less.

"Well, he went to the south of the Yangtze River. This time, the Turkic people have too much appetite. It is clear that they want to embarrass the court, so His Majesty is already preparing to go to war with the Turkic people."

"War? Even if it's a war with the Turks, what's the matter with Guan Chufeng? What can he do when he goes to the south of the Yangtze River? Those Turkic barbarians are in the north."

Lu Fan was not surprised by the start of the war, but he didn't understand why Chu Feng went to the south of the Yangtze River to start a war with the Turks.

"This is something you don't know. There are four major grain merchants in Jiangnan, which can be said to control most of the grain in Jiangnan."

"They have been stockpiling food for a while, do you think His Majesty would like to see it?"

"Food is the most important thing for the people, especially after the locust plague, and now there is a war with the Turks. Once there is trouble, many people will be ready to move again."

After hearing this, Lu Fan understood the seriousness of the matter.

"So serious? But second uncle, how do you know about those things in Jiangnan?"

Lu Fan looked at his second uncle and was a little confused. The Lu family knew that the matter in the capital was not a difficult matter.

"Don't forget, our Lu family's boats and carts are all over the world, and those grain merchants hoard grain, how can they transport grain away from our Lu family's boats and carts?"

When he said this, he couldn't help showing that kind of proud look on his face, and he was also proud.

A kind of pride for the strength of their Lu family.

"This is the strength of our Lu family. It's ridiculous that some people still want to shake the tree." Lu Fan also said with a proud smile.

"Second Uncle, then you mean that this time Chu Feng is going to find those grain merchants, and wants them to spit out the grain?"

Lu Fan has always been very proud, and he is indeed a capable person, so he quickly understood Chu Feng's purpose this time.

"Yes, that should be the case. These grains cannot be hoarded in the hands of those grain merchants."

"Second Uncle, is there any way for you to contact those grain merchants? Since he, Chu Feng, wants to do this, we will not let him do it."

"Don't His Majesty trust him very much, then we will make him unable to do things and embarrass him."

Lu Fan said with a smile, as if he saw the scene where Chu Feng hit a wall in the south of the Yangtze River.

"I want him to come back with his tail between his legs, like a lost dog."

"No, I won't let him come back." Lu Fan said with a gloomy face.

"However, if we intervene in this matter, we will directly oppose the court. Li Shimin will definitely have more objections to our Lu family in this matter."

"Second uncle, is there any difference now? Isn't it obvious what His Majesty's attitude towards our family has always been?"

"Besides, His Majesty asked Chu Feng to handle this matter, which means that they don't want to do things directly in the name of the court, so we don't need to come forward directly. Does the court also have regulations on business dealings?"

Lu Fan looked at his second uncle and said.

"Okay, since that's the case, Second Uncle will go say hello for you."

"Thank you, Second Uncle." Seeing the back of Second Uncle leaving, Lu Fan smiled even wider.

"Chu Feng, you didn't expect that, did you?"
