With a sigh, Empress Changsun nodded and said: "My good boy, I've suffered a lot for you, listen to you, mother, live well, even if you want to see my granddaughter."

Empress Changsun knew that even if she was not for her little grandson, in order to keep her daughter alive, otherwise, one day when she was not around, the emperor would bring up the old story again, and even if she didn't ask her daughter's whereabouts for five years, she would promise her again get married.

Being a princess of the Tang Dynasty is both lucky and unlucky. Fortunately, she is rich beyond words. Unfortunately, she is basically used as a bargaining chip to win over others by her talented father. It is sad!

Then the princess began to tell her mother about her five years of experience. What she talked about most was not the relationship between her and her husband, but her little daughter Xuanxuan. It's all better.

It's not that the princess has no love in her heart, but that she is not sure whether her mother can tolerate her husband. After all, he is a country man, and in the eyes of the queen, he is not worthy of the princess, so the princess didn't mention it if she was interested.

Thinking of the predicament and hardships of the inn before she left her daughter, the princess felt tight, and she didn't know what happened to her daughter and him now. What should I do?

"Queen, my son has something to ask for!"

Chapter 17 A Legendary Person

Seeing her daughter being so solemn, the queen took her hand firmly and said, "Oh? Tell me, what's the matter? As long as the queen mother can do it, she will never refuse."

"My son's husband is from a poor family, and now he is alone with the child and doesn't know what to do. The family encountered difficulties before the son left, so now he is worried about the son, and wants to ask the queen mother to find someone to help him look." The princess was full of worry.

The queen was also anxious when she heard this, "You child, why didn't you tell me earlier? It's been almost a month since you came back, what if something happens to my granddaughter? I really don't know the seriousness.

Alright, I will send someone there tomorrow, so don't worry. "

"I also ask the queen mother to keep it secret and hide it from the father. The father must not know the existence of their father and daughter."

"Don't worry, the queen mother knows that she will find a suitable person, even your father's Baiqisi doesn't know."

In the morning of the next day, a person came to the Lizheng Hall, and a legendary figure came. She was the wife of Li Jing, Duke Wei of the Tang Dynasty. Hong Fu Nu, one of the "Three Heroes of the Wind and Dust".

"I haven't seen you for a few days. My sister looks much better. It can be seen that it is really different to have a daughter by her side. The little girl is not lazy." Zhang Chuchen said this to the queen.

Although Hongfu girl is over 50 years old now, but because she has practiced martial arts since she was a child, she looks about the same age as Empress Changsun, only in her 30s, and because of her status and temperament, she is full of beauty. Among Chaowu's wives, she is the only one who dares to truly match the queen sisters.

"It's just a hard struggle on the sick bed, I trouble my elder sister to come to the palace to see me, my little sister really feels sorry.

Today I invited my sister to come here to ask for something. I am afraid that only my sister can do this in the whole city of Chang'an. "Empress Changsun said straight to the point.

"To put it bluntly, why are you and my sister being polite? Sister Daoshan Huohai doesn't frown." After all, she was born in the green forest. Although this eldest sister has been a noble lady for many years, she has always retained the green forest style.

"Let me guess. Could it be that this matter is related to this girl? Besides, if you ask me to do it, do you have to hide it from Your Majesty?" Hong Funu has the mentality of a playful little girl. Forget kidding.

The princess next to him panicked when she heard this, and almost knelt down for Zhang Chuchen.

Empress Changsun told the whole story. Zhang Chuchen was very interested as if he was listening to a love story. He clapped his hands and immediately began to confirm the ticket: "Don't worry, I will leave this matter to me. I will discuss it later." Just move."

The princess begged: "Auntie, please keep it secret. Even if this matter cannot be done, you must not let the emperor know about it. Otherwise, the child may be in danger."

Hongfu girl raised her eyebrows, and said with a playful smile: "Girl, are you underestimating me? Your father's Baiqisi is indeed powerful, but he is not good enough in front of me. An Xin will take care of your mother here, you I will naturally save your husband and children for you."

"Thank you auntie!"

Hongfu girl strode out with a smile, and when she heard the princess behind her thanking her, she stopped and said with a smile: "I am called your mother, queen and sister, and I like you to call me aunt even more." After speaking, she laughed and left.

The princess was confused, and Empress Changsun explained with a smile: "My old sister, over 50 years old, still has a lot of fun, and I don't like people calling her Mrs. Wei. If anyone calls her the name of Green Forest and Red Man It suits her best, because it shows that she didn't become famous by her husband. There are countless talented women in the Tang Dynasty, but she is the only one who can be called a strange character!

Although your father's Baiqisi monitors all over the place, he dare not monitor her, because no one dares to provoke her temper, and even your father avoids her when she sees her, so she is the most suitable for this matter. "

In the Yunlai Inn, the third aunt who was out of the stall today found Du Shaoqing in a panic.

"Da Lang, there are always two people wandering around our inn this morning. They don't look like good people. You have to be careful."

Du Shaoqing, who was feeding the child, laughed out loud, "Since when did you have the potential to be a detective? Our inn only deals in steamed buns. We just cleaned up the county magistrate and Huang Shengcai a few days ago. Who else in Xia Town will pay attention here?

Maybe the other party is hungry and wants to eat steamed buns but has no money. "

The little girl Xuanxuan on the side said in a childish voice: "Xuanxuan has steamed buns, anyone who wants to eat can find me!"

"Isn't your steamed buns not enough? You feel like one is too small for a meal, so you're willing to give it to others?" Du Shaoqing joked.

The little girl hesitated, but finally nodded weakly and said: "I can eat half, and give him the other half."

These words amused the third aunt, and the little girl was at a loss for what to do with her laughter. She didn't know if she was wrong, but Du Shaoqing rubbed her daughter's little head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, no one is hungry, the third grandma said Just for fun."

At this moment, a rough shout came in: "Where is the person? Shopkeeper, hurry up, we have to stay in the shop!"

Du Shaoqing asked his second brother to help take care of his daughter. He and his third aunt came out together. In the lobby stood two men in coarse clothes. They were burly and unfriendly, each holding a weapon in their hands. The third aunt jumped in her heart and stretched out her hand to pull her nephew. He gave Du Shaoqing a wink, Du Shaoqing understood, it turned out to be these two people, indeed, they don't look like good people on the outside.

"Two guest officers, how many rooms do you want?"

"One room is fine, but it must be the best."

The two of them spoke very badly, and Du Shaoqing didn't care too much. He just thought it was the two of them acting domineeringly, but the inn didn't have much accommodation business, and there were plenty of rooms, so he arranged it in the best room No. [-].

But after the two moved in, they didn't give up, "Go, get us some food and wine, it's good."

Du Shaoqing replied: "You two, we are just an inn for accommodation, and we do not provide food and drink services."

"What kind of bird inn is this? How can there be no food in an inn? I don't care, anyway, you have to get some food and wine for us two brothers."

"The rules of the inn are that the guests go out to find a place to eat by themselves."

"What kind of bullshit rules? What? The big shop is bullying customers? Do you think I can't afford money? Or do you think you look down on our brother and want to try your hand at it?" on the table.

The other person directly flashed his weapon, which was a blatant threat, Du Shaoqing was speechless, this is simply a bandit.

"Okay, since the two of you insist on this, then I'll make arrangements for you to eat, and you two will wait a moment." After finishing speaking, he turned and left.

Seeing Du Shaoqing turn around and leave, the two laughed loudly, and then whispered to each other: "So this guy is really a softie, this time the business is so easy, it's just a gift of money, the town's surname Huang It's really trash, such a softie can't be taken down, and we brothers need to take action."

"Hey, what the second brother said is right, but if that's not the case, whose money are we going to earn?" Another person said with a sinister smile.

Chapter 18 Another Unforgivable One Comes

Back in the back house, Du Shaoqing called his second younger brother Du Shaoming to the Shengcai restaurant to buy some food and drink for the two of them. Du Shaoming said worriedly: "Brother, why don't we prepare it ourselves and find Huang Shengcai, in case he messes with the food and drink?" , don’t the guests want to trouble us?”

"Hehe, he doesn't dare to buy his food and drink to entertain our guests. If something goes wrong, wouldn't it also smash the signboard of his restaurant? Huang Shengcai is not that stupid."

"If you want me to say, we should restart the business of inns and restaurants." Du Shaoming walked out muttering.

Du Shaoqing shook his head and smiled, thinking in his heart that it was almost time to open the inn again, and the business of steamed buns had been going on for a while, and the income of the Du family was gradually stabilizing. Two days ago, he had gone to the county to find a blacksmith shop, specializing in custom-made I bought a set of kitchen utensils, made of pure iron.

In this era, salt and iron are scarce, and are strictly controlled by the imperial court. Even if the common people use kitchen knives and scissors, most of them are covered with iron on the blade. Things made of pure iron are very expensive.There were no iron pots at all in this era, and everyone used pottery or bronze pots or tripods for cooking.

Arranged food and drinks for the two guests in Room [-], and the two of them did not find fault with each other. This also dispelled Du Shaoqing's doubts. He thought that the two of them were recruited by the enemy to deal with the inn, but now it seems that they are careless No, it's just two hard-to-serve guests.

On the other side, when Zhang Chuchen, the red-haired girl from Chang'an, arrived at Luoxia Town, it was already afternoon. She was a beautiful middle-aged woman in a bright red warrior outfit, and she was very eye-catching in this Luoxia Town. Yes, but Hong Fu Nu didn't care at all, and went straight to the Yunlai Inn in the town.

The horse was tied to the horse post at the door, and he was about to go up to call for someone, when he saw a small mark on the outer wall of the inn out of the corner of his eye, Zhang Chuchen raised his eyebrows, as a senior boss in the green forest, he naturally knew this What does it mean, is it possible that this inn is being targeted by bandits?Someone already stepped on a plate?
