It was getting late, and Zhang Zong sent Xue Shao away again. As for the reason why Princess Chengyang didn't like Li Hong, it was similar to what he guessed. Li Hong was also quite unfair. The real culprit of the tragic deaths of Queen Wang and Li Zhong was actually Wu Meiniang. However, because Li Hong was Wu Meiniang's eldest son, he took over the position of prince who originally belonged to Li Zhong, which made Princess Chengyang hate the house and the Wuwu, and even did not like Li Hong.

Of course, the person that Princess Chengyang really hated was Wu Meiniang. According to Xue Shao, anyone in their family was strictly prohibited from mentioning Wu Meiniang's name, and it was also because of Wu Meiniang, and there was also some gap between Princess Chengyang and Emperor Li Zhi.

For example, Princess Chengyang returned to Chang'an last year, but she entered the palace in a few times. Even though Li Zhi often sent people to summon her to the palace, Princess Chengyang still made excuses and refused to go. She is probably the only one who dared not to give Li Zhi a good face like this in the Tang Dynasty.

It was already late at night, but Li Hong still couldn't sleep, mainly because the amount of information he received today was a bit large, especially about his father Zhang Jingzhi. In Zhang Zong's memory, his father was just a flower shop with good wine, but he didn't expect that he would even participate in the power core competition in the Tang Dynasty.

But it is not surprising to think about it. When Li Zhong was deposed, Zhang Zong was not born when Zhang Jingzhi abandoned his official position and went to business. Nine years later, Li Zhong was killed. Zhang Zong was only three or four years old at that time. In addition, Zhang Jingzhi never mentioned the incident that year. Zhang Zong was forced to study since he was sensible, so it was normal for him to know nothing about his father's past.

In the next few days, Xue Shao would come to eat from time to time, and Zhang Zong still set up a flower stall every day. In fact, he is no longer short of money now. After he has no debt, he has saved enough money to support his daily expenses. In addition, the thank-you gifts given by Princess Chengyang, if it is exchanged for money, it will probably be hundreds of coins. This money is enough to make him a small wealthy family.

However, people always have to find something to do when they are alive. In addition, Zhang Zong likes to grow flowers and grass, and sharing the flowers and plants he has carefully raised with others will also make people feel a sense of accomplishment.

Early that morning, Zhang Zong had not yet got up, but was woken up by a knock on the door. He put on his clothes and yawned to the front door. When he opened the door, he found a thin middle-aged man standing outside the door, with a carriage behind him, with two servants on it. Judging from the middle-aged man's clothes, he should be the manager of a wealthy family.

"But Zhang Zong and Zhang Xiaolangjun?" the middle-aged man asked with a very polite smile.

"That's right, you guys..." Zhang Zong was still a little confused at this time, wondering why the other party ran to his house so early?

"I heard that Xiao Langjun has two-color roses here, I wonder if it can be sold?" the middle-aged man asked again.

"Of course!" Zhang Zong was stunned for a moment before he realized that even if he bought flowers, the other party came too early, right?

"That's great!" The middle-aged man smiled when he heard this, and immediately waved to the servant behind him. The other party immediately lifted a box from the car. At this time, the middle-aged man spoke again, "This is twenty cents of coins. I wonder if I can pick up two basins to go back?"

"Uh~? No problem." Zhang Zong was stunned by this fortune from heaven. He never dreamed that someone was willing to buy a pot of rose for a sky-high price?

When the middle-aged man entered the flower garden, Zhang Zong took the other party to Shuangse Rose before. The other party quickly picked up two pots, and then someone carried them to the carriage and said goodbye. Until the other party's carriage went out far, Zhang Zong did not wake up from his confusion, and even pinched himself violently because he suspected that he was dreaming, but the severe pain told him that he was in reality.

However, what is even more shocking is still behind. In the next half hour, carriages came to buy flowers one after another, and they bought two pots. Originally, Zhang Zong only grafted ten pots of roses, and before, he gave two pots to Princess Chengyang, but now there are only eight pots left. As a result, the first four bought them early, and the people who came back could only return empty-handed.

In fact, in addition to roses, there are also ten grafted pots of chrysanthemums in Zhang Zong's flowerbed. However, these chrysanthemums need to wait until autumn to bloom. Now they are just a bunch of green leaves. Zhang Zong is afraid of something wrong, so he dare not sell them. After all, the managers who come to buy flowers are all very demeanor. You can tell at a glance that the owner behind them is powerful and powerful. If something goes wrong with the chrysanthemums sold, it will cause himself some trouble.

"You are late, you've really sold out!" Zhang Zong explained helplessly to another person who came to buy Shuangse roses. He could not remember which one he was. Anyway, he hadn't been idle this morning, and he still didn't even have time to wash his face.

"When will the new two-color rose be launched?" the visitor asked anxiously.

"This is not accurate. The weather is so hot, and the growth of flowers and plants is also affected. Generally, roses will not bloom at this time, let alone the two-color roses. I guess they have to wait until autumn at least." Zhang Zong spread his hands and said helplessly again. Almost everyone who has not bought the two-color rose will ask this question.

The person who looked like a manager outside the door also looked disappointed when he heard this, but there was nothing he could do about it. If you want to blame him, blame him for being late.

After seeing off the disappointed guest, Zhang Zong simply found a wooden board and wrote six big words "Shuang Color Rose Sold out". However, he thought about it and added a line of small words below, "The next batch of the two color roses needs to be launched until autumn before they are on the market." Then he hung the wooden board on the door, then closed the door and washed up.

"Dongdongdongdongdong~" But just as Zhang Zong was about to make some breakfast, he didn't expect another knock on the door outside, which made him helplessly walk to the door and open the door, "It's really sold out. If you want to buy it, you can only wait until autumn..."

Before Zhang Zong finished speaking, he found that it was Xue Shao standing outside. The other party knocked on the wooden board on the door and smiled: "Do you know why your two-color roses sell so quickly?"

"Is it related to the eldest princess?" Zhang Zong also vaguely guessed something when he heard this.

"Yes, didn't my mother get two pots of two-color roses from you? Last night she invited many noble ladies to the banquet and took out the two-color roses to show off at the banquet. These women have nothing to do all day long, but they like to compete with all kinds of comparisons. If I have something, you don't have it, then I will win, so it's normal for them to send people to buy flowers today." Xue Shao said with a smile again.

Zhang Zong finally understood when he heard this. It turned out that Princess Chengyang had advertised for her. No wonder so many people came early in the morning, but then he asked strangely: "No, didn't you say that your mother was trying to destroy the flowers? The two-color rose was not raised to death by her?"

"If my mother took action personally, the Shuangse Rose would definitely not be able to raise them well. Fortunately, I have a skillful and good sister, which allowed the Shuangse Rose to survive." Xue Shao could only dare to complain about his mother in front of Zhang Zong. When he saw Princess Chengyang, he was more obedient than a mouse when he saw a cat.

"You actually have a sister. How old is it? Are you beautiful?" Zhang Zong was shocked when he heard this and asked.

"Beast, my sister is only ten years old. Do you want to make an idea about her?" Xue Shao said with a blank look on Zhang Zong.

"Don't be so angry. If I had a sister, I would definitely introduce it to you!" Zhang Zong joked again. Anyway, he doesn't have a sister, who can't write a blank check?

"Okay, this is what you said. If you don't have a real sister, you will always have a cousin. Cousin. Don't forget to introduce it to me at that time!" Xue Shao certainly knew that Zhang Zong was joking, but he still pretended to be serious.

When Zhang Zong heard this, he laughed and fooled it. Speaking of which, after getting along with Xue Shao over the past few days, he had long been familiar with each other's temperament. He was just kidding and fighting was conducive to enhancing friendship.

However, after joking, Xue Shao finally thought about the important things he came today, so he spoke again: "My mother will hold a banquet this afternoon, please ask Brother Shi to come to the mansion."

"Ah? Why are you please? Didn't you send so many thank you gifts last time?" Zhang Zong also showed a look of surprise at this time. Princess Chengyang is too polite, right?

"I don't know either. Yesterday my mother asked me about your affairs, but suddenly she said she wanted to invite you to the mansion, so I came to invite you in person." Xue Shao said again.

"You said it earlier, come in and help!" Zhang Zong slapped his forehead when he heard this, pulled Xue Shao into the yard.

"What are you doing?" Xue Shao asked with confusion.
