The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

He is Zhao Chen. He looks very young. He should be less than twenty.

Definitely not. Being so young, so talented, and so handsome makes my heart ache.

I don't know which girl would be so lucky to be his wife.

Didn't everyone tell me to take a look? The daughter of Wei Guogong Li Jing is pregnant with a child now and will give birth soon.

Huh? I thought I still had a chance?

Don't ever dream like this.

On both sides of the hall, the maids of the Xue Mansion who were in charge of serving were talking quietly.

But his eyes were looking straight at Zhao Chen.

Under the leadership of Miss Xue, they were illiterate and could not read a script, but they could listen a lot.

I don't know how much I longed to see Zhao Chen.

Now that they saw it, the maids were even more surprised.

At such a young age, he has such talent.

Which man in Dingzhou City can compare with him?

You go down first, no need to wait. Xue Wanche felt a little embarrassed.

My maid is so interested in Zhao Chen.

Not a good thing for him.

The fortresses were captured from within.

He didn't want Zhao Chen to figure him out.

The maids reluctantly left, leaving only Zhao Chen, Cheng Chumo, and Xue Wanche in the hall.

You two have come a long way, let's have a glass of wine to relieve our fatigue. Xue Wanche raised his glass and smiled with the two of them.

Then thank you General Xue first. Zhao Chen raised his glass.

Cheng Chumo on the side didn't say anything, just drank the wine in the glass.

Haha, the little prince is really generous. Xue Wanche said with a smile.

Come, let me toast the little Duke again. Xue Wanche raised his glass again.

Zhao Chen finally understood.

Xue Wanche obviously didn't want to ask about Li Yuanji.

Then he drank one glass after another with Cheng Chumo.

r\u003e Xue...

Zhao Chen, drink. Don't worry about anything else today except drinking. Xue Wanche interrupted Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen frowned.

Watching the two people in front of me going back and forth.

After three drinks, Cheng Chumo just lay on the table and snored loudly.

Xue Wanche was also half leaning on the table.

Mr. Zhao, can you sign your name for me? the voice of maid Xiaocui came from behind.

Zhao Chen turned around and saw the maid of the Xue Mansion holding the storybook from Wangyou Bookstore and handing it to him.

You are the maid in the carriage yesterday. Zhao Chen looked at Xiao Cui and said.

Ah, yes, Mr. Zhao, we didn't do anything about yesterday either...

Zhao Chen waved his hand, interrupting Xiaocui's explanation.

You can sign, but you also have to answer a question for me. Zhao Chen said with a smile.

Ah, yes, don't ask a single question, I will answer you even if it's ten. Xiaocui didn't expect Zhao Chen to agree to sign for him so easily.

I will get this signature later.

I don’t know how many people will die from envy.

Have you met strangers every once in a while, or received letters from other places? Zhao Chen asked.

Since Li Yuanji is not dead, it is unlikely that Xue Wanche will not contact Li Yuanji.

Since we are in contact, it is natural to have someone come over or contact us through letters.

There should also be a fixed time period.

This...Mr. Zhao, Xiao Cui has never seen the person. The letters were all handed over to the master by the young lady, and Xiao Cui doesn't know about it either. Xiao Cui was a little disappointed.

She didn't even help Zhao Chen, and Zhao Chen would definitely not give her an autograph.

I still wanted to show off in front of those little sisters, but now it’s okay...

Okay. Zhao Chen nodded, took the brush from Xiao Cui's hand, and wrote his name on the title page of the storybook.

Mr. Zhao, you...

You have already answered my question, and this is the reward you promised. Zhao Chen smiled and helped the drunken Cheng Chumo away.

…

Old Li Tou spent this day with some anxiety.

He didn't even have the appetite to eat, and he kept thinking in his mind, if Zhao Chen knew that he had been hiding it from him.

How should I explain this matter to Zhao Chen?

Luo Tong, have you got any news from the city? the emperor asked Luo Tong outside.

This torturous moment made Lao Litou restless.

Not yet. Luo Tong's answer was simple.

The emperor wanted to open the door and go to the city several times, but he endured it.

Zhao Chen should have returned to the inn from Xue Wanche at this moment. Xue Wanche wanted to really reveal Zhao Chen's identity.

If you go there now, it's useless to say anything.

Luo Tong, if there is any news, please inform me immediately. Old Li Tou said to Luo Tong.

Okay, shopkeeper, sir is here. Luo Tong's voice came from outside the door.

Old Li Tou, who was still pacing back and forth, suddenly stopped.

After a moment of silence, a knock on the door was heard outside.

Before he could speak, the door opened and Zhao Chen walked in expressionlessly.

When Lao Li first saw Zhao Chen's appearance, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

If Zhao Chen didn't know what he was hiding from him, how could he have this expression?

At that moment, Lao Li was thinking about how to explain this matter to Zhao Chen.

But the more I thought about it, the more confused I became, and I felt a little groggy.

Old Li Tou, we have found out everything.

Li Yuanji is indeed alive! Zhao Chen sat down and talked to the emperor.

Yeah. The emperor looked lost.

nod.

Um?

Are you okay? Are you having a headache? Zhao Chen frowned. When he came in, he felt something was wrong with Lao Li.

He was very worried, as if he was particularly afraid of something happening.

Worried that Li Yuanji is dead?

Or something else?

It's okay, as long as Yuan Ji is still alive. The emperor came back to his senses and tentatively asked Zhao Chen, Did Xue Wanche tell you anything else?

What did you say? Zhao Chen looked at the emperor suspiciously.

say what?

Of course, where is Yuanji now? You didn't ask, right? The emperor responded.

What he was worried about probably didn't happen.

He should have escaped.

But Zhao Chen looked suspicious just now. If he didn't take the lead, he would most likely be suspicious of him.

No, the emperor immediately questioned Zhao Chen with great momentum.

Old Li Tou, your brain is not broken, right? Will Xue Wanche leak Li Yuanji's location to me?

You are so powerful, why don't you just yell at Xue Wanche?

Do you think he will let you enter the palace? Zhao Chen was very unhappy with the emperor's attitude.

It was obviously him who begged him to do something, so why did he blame him?

If you, Old Li Tou, were that capable, you could just ask Xue Wanche yourself.

Seeing Zhao Chen no longer looking at him suspiciously, Old Li Tou breathed a sigh of relief.

With a smile on his face, he said in an apologetic tone, I'm a little anxious.

Why don't you, kid, be more generous?

Old Li Tou, you are a little strange today. Zhao Chen looked at the emperor and said casually.

But Lao Litou was frightened.

I'm not concerned about Yuanji's affairs. I will inevitably worry about gains and losses.

You are not me. There are many things that I cannot empathize with.
