The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

The most difficult part of the tea business has been done by the owner, and the rest depends on how hard the people under them work.

And three days later, the tea shop will hold an opening ceremony.

Even if it is a good thing, it must be promoted well to let the whole Chang'an City know that a tea shop has opened here, and it sells new teas that everyone is looking for after the New Year.

For the tea matter, Li Fu also told Li Yuan and Li Shimin in the palace that they don't need to do anything else. They just need to make some flower tea when meeting the ministers below and reward them with a bowl of tea. They will find out by themselves.

At that time, Li Yuan only needs to sit there calmly and smile.

"This was sent to the palace by my filial nephew. It's unique to him. I heard that he has such an industry and will open a shop in Chang'an soon. You will know it then."

Li Shimin's ministers also asked.

"Your Majesty, this tea is really extraordinary."

Li Shimin smiled happily and said, "This was sent to the palace by King Jingyang. It was available last year. I heard that his people have set up shops in Chang'an this year. My cousin is really good at eating and drinking."

On the surface, he condemned Li Fu for not doing his job properly, but in fact, he was happy in his heart.

The palace accounted for 50% of the tea business.

The profit was split in half. Although it had to be sent to the retired emperor, didn't the retired emperor's treasury also belong to the palace?

In the future, the retired emperor's property would belong to him, the emperor, wouldn't it?

The family, the father and son, were not shy, not at all shy.

After just one or two days, all the officials in the court knew that the tea shop of the Jingyang King's family was about to open in Chang'an City.

In Yin Ashu's house, the servants also found out about the tea shop.

"The Jingyang King's family did open a tea shop in Chang'an City, but it hasn't opened yet. They just hung a plaque, and the plaque is covered with cloth. If you don't ask carefully, you really don't know that it is a tea shop."

"It hasn't opened yet?" Yin Ashu asked curiously: "What's going on inside? Can you find out?"

"It's impossible to find out. The shop is closed from front to back. Outsiders can't get in. I guess they are preparing to open it in the next two days." The servant said.

Yin Ashu sat on the chair that he had customized at a high price in his living room and touched his beard with his hand.

Originally, his tea business in Chang'an City was doing well. He didn't lose money. Although he didn't make a lot of money, he was still profitable.

But once the tea shop of the Jingyang Wang family opened, I'm afraid his business would be affected.

Since the New Year, he has been nervous about the tea business. During that period, everyone was asking about the new tea, but there was no news in Chang'an City. Now, people have finally found a place to sell new tea.

It can be imagined that once the tea shop opened, people who have been looking for it for a long time will definitely go there. What's the point of his own tea shop?

It's nothing.

No, how can his own business be ruined like this?

He still hopes to make money.

Yin Ashu thought for a long time and decided to go to the palace to see his daughter.

His daughter is the concubine of the emperor, and the emperor is also the emperor. His daughter also has status.

Life in his own house is almost unbearable. The emperor can't just watch and do nothing. He has to let his daughter go to the emperor to blow pillow wind.

"Keep a close eye on the tea shop of King Jingyang. Find out more news by all means. Once there is any news, tell me immediately. Got it?" Yin Ashu urged.

"Yes."

After sending the servant away, Yin Ashu changed his clothes and went to the palace in a carriage.

In Da'an Palace, Concubine Yin was dressing up in the room. The maid came to report that the concubine's father had come.

"Let him wait for me in the front hall for a while, I will go to see him right away." Concubine Yin said.

It's been a while since I last saw my family. Although Da'an Palace is gorgeous, it's no longer fresh to live in a big place for a long time.

The status of these concubines of the emperor in the palace is no longer than before.

Now the Queen is in charge of the inner court, so no matter how you look at it, they have no right to it. In addition, the inner court is cutting down on expenses, and the whole palace is advocating frugality. Even if they have valuable things, they can't show them off in public.

Although Da'an Palace was not affected, but the dress was too extravagant, and the emperor was not happy.

Moreover, there were many beauties in Da'an Palace now, and the emperor favored not only himself and Zhang Jieyu.

As for beauties, young and beautiful ones would always come in an endless stream, but they would fade with age.

It was already very good to be able to rely on the emperor to live in the palace. I only hope that the emperor can be healthy and live a long life, otherwise, their good days in the palace will come to an end.

Therefore, as a concubine, the days in Da'an Palace are also lonely.

Concubine Yin was very happy that her father came.

After dressing up, Concubine Yin came to the front hall with the help of the palace maids and met her father.

"Meet the concubine." Yin Ashu bowed.

Although they are father and daughter, etiquette cannot be abolished in the palace. The emperor and his subjects are first, and then the father and daughter. They still have to act well.

"Father, there is no need to be polite. Sit down quickly." Concubine Yin stepped forward and helped her father up.

Her father was about the same age as Li Yuan.

"Why did you think of visiting your daughter in the palace today? I missed you so much." Concubine Yin said.

"It's not that I don't miss you, but life at home is not as good as before." Yin A Shu said, "You know the reason."

Concubine Yin sighed and nodded slightly.

She knew it of course.

In the past, she and Concubine Zhang helped Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji in the palace.

At that time, the two needed people in the palace to help them find out the news, so they would naturally please them, and Yin A Shu, and the East Palace would often send gifts.

Not only Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji, but also those court officials, had to flatter them, hoping that they would say good things in front of the emperor.

But times have changed. After the abdication of the Supreme Emperor, they are no longer as glorious as before, and their status is not as high as before. Who would rush to give gifts to curry favor with them?
