My uncle is Zhu Di

Chapter 50 Asking Queen Xu to Help
After hearing this, Empress Xu stood there, while Zhu Gaochi remained kneeling, not daring to move, looking at Empress Xu.

"Get up and go back to deal with the memorials. Don't delay the affairs of the court." Empress Xu said to Zhu Gaochi.

"Yes." Zhu Gaochi stood up immediately. He knew that only my mother could cancel my father's punishment, and my father would not be angry even if it was canceled.

When Zhu Gaosui saw Zhu Gaochi leave, he immediately said to Empress Xu, "Mother, I didn't know. They didn't tell me that Shakyabao was going to sell the machine. Now there is a problem. Father said that I didn't inquire in time. Besides, there was really no news before. Father and elder brother didn't tell me anything. I am wronged, mother!"

"Forget it, go back. Pay more attention next time when you do your job!" Empress Xu waved her hand at Zhu Gaosui.

"Thank you, mother. Thank you, mother!" Zhu Gaosui immediately stood up with a smile.

Although Empress Xu loved Zhu Gaochi the most, she also liked and doted on her other sons.

"Yi Tian, ​​don't think that your mother doesn't know what you are doing outside? Do your job well, otherwise, your father will send you to your fiefdom, and you will cry to death!" Empress Xu warned Zhu Gaosui.

"Mother, I won't go. I want to stay with you!" Zhu Gaosui came over with a smile and supported Empress Xu.

"You are so old, but you are still so unruly. You just make your parents worry! Go, and leave quickly. When your father realizes what’s going on, I won’t know how to deal with you!" Empress Xu smiled and hit Zhu Gaosui, saying so.

"Yes, mother, please persuade my father. He is so angry for no reason. Mother, I am leaving now!" When Zhu Gaosui heard what Empress Xu said, he bowed to her and left.

Empress Xu turned around, looked at the Qianqing Palace, and sighed.

Then she led the servants to the Qianqing Palace. When they arrived at the door of the imperial study in the Qianqing Palace, Empress Xu waved her hand and all the eunuchs and palace maids left.

Empress Xu entered the Qianqing Palace alone, and then waved to the eunuchs in the Qianqing Palace.

The eunuchs immediately bowed to Empress Xu and Zhu Di, left the imperial study and closed the door.

Zhu Di just sat there, holding a memorial and pretending to read it.

Empress Xu sat down on the chair next to Zhu Di and said, "Don't pretend. I'll let the eldest and third sons go back!"

"Well, these two guys are really incompetent!" Zhu Di put down the memorial with a smile and said to Empress Xu.

"Are you capable of doing things? You've been fooled, right? Aren't you ashamed?" Empress Xu said to Zhu Di with a smile.

Zhu Di's face turned red when he heard this, and he complained, "Miaoyun, you have to avenge me. That boy humiliated me! Not only did he humiliate me, but he also left me with such a big problem, the livelihood of 100,000 weavers. What do you think I should do? This boy bullied me!"

Empress Xu looked at Zhu Di with a smile. In the outside world, Zhu Di was an emperor, full of majesty, but in front of Empress Xu, he was still like a teenager even after decades. Whenever he had problems that could not be solved, he would come to Empress Xu.

When Zhu Di was young, he was very noisy and dared to do anything without any scruples, but he was completely subdued by Empress Xu.

Zhu Di really admired his daughter-in-law's abilities. Xu Miaoyun had read thousands of books and knew everything about astronomy and geography.

The reason why Zhu Gaochi was so outstanding was that he was personally trained by Xu Miaoyun since he was a child.

"I can't think of the livelihood of 100,000 weavers. After all, there are so many people, not just a few. Hey, this matter has become like this? Didn't you say that Sakya Bao has a solution? Does he have a solution?" Empress Xu sat there, looking at Zhu Di worriedly.

"Yes, he said it himself, it's true!" Zhu Di immediately stood up and sat down next to Empress Xu, then said, "Don't ask me how I got this news, it's just that this guy doesn't trust me.

He won't say it easily. He also said, let me beg him. No, that's not what he said. He said, there will be a time when I will beg him!"

"I'll go and beg?" Empress Xu looked at Zhu Di and asked.

"Yes!" Zhu Di nodded and repeated, "You go."

"Hey, you, you always do some ridiculous things." Empress Xu looked at Zhu Di helplessly and said.

Zhu Di didn't care. There were only the two of them here, so he let himself go. He smiled and licked Empress Xu's face and said, "Miaoyun, I'll leave this matter to you. Don't worry, this kid will definitely benefit from it. But I will punish him with some physical pain at most. I can't bear it! By the way, if you have a chance, ask him if there is a master behind him. If so, ask who it is?"

"You, are you angry with a little kid?" Empress Xu said with a sigh as she looked at Zhu Di.

"It's not a matter of anger, it's a matter of face, you know? This is a man's face!" Zhu Di said seriously to Empress Xu.

"Okay, okay, okay. I don't care about your business. As for the benefits, you want me to talk about it. Will this child agree without any benefits? Do you want me to threaten him with my identity as his aunt? Will that work? You suffered a loss at the hands of this child this time. Can you promise that you won't suffer a loss next time?" Empress Xu looked at Zhu Di and asked.

She was not worried that Zhu Di would kill Sakya Bao. With her around, that would be impossible. If he wanted to hurt Sakya Bao, he would need her approval, let alone kill him.

After hearing this, Zhu Di sat there thinking about it for a while, then looked at Empress Xu and said, "Give the Duke of Wei's Mansion back to them? Besides, as long as this kid is in charge of the Weaving Bureau, everything will be easy to discuss. Miaoyun, the boss is too tired. You know me, I have been fighting since I was a child. As for the governance, you were in charge of everything in the Prince of Yan's Mansion before, and now I will leave it to the boss to take care of it.

But look at the boss, he is racking his brains to save money, but those are the things I need to do. What I mean is, if we let Shakyabao go to the weaving bureau and can earn 10 million taels a year, it will make the boss's life much easier.

As long as he is willing to go, everything is negotiable. Of course, the title will not be restored for now. I will remember it for him and will definitely give it to him. Now Zhu Yunwen has not found out yet, I dare not let Huizu come out. It may not be a good thing for Huizu to come out, so, Miaoyun, you can decide on the other conditions!"

"Hmm!" Empress Xu was sitting there, also thinking. She knew that Zhu Di did it for Zhu Gaochi.

"Do you agree?" Zhu Di asked excitedly after hearing Empress Xu's "hmm".

"Is it okay if I don't agree? Can you solve it if I don't agree? You sent people to Kunning Palace today, didn't you hope that I would solve this matter for you. But I have to say that my Baoer is still very powerful, right?" Xu Miaoyun said a little proudly at this moment.

"Yes, but I'm worried that someone behind the scenes is pushing him. If it's really his own ability, I will definitely use him. However, I haven't found out yet. Think about it calmly. How can Shakyabao understand all this? He can't even write well, and he has hardly opened a book in the three years in the Imperial Academy! So, there must be someone behind this. I must find out the truth about this.

Maybe this matter can be linked to Zhu Yunwen behind the scenes. But don't worry, even if it is Zhu Yunwen behind the scenes, I will not punish Sakyabao!" Zhu Di sat there, looking at Empress Xu and assured her.

After hearing this, Empress Xu sat there and pondered. It was indeed true. She knew very well what kind of person Shakya Bao was. He would definitely not do such things.

"I asked Sakya Bao to go to the Weaving Bureau with the purpose of investigating the person behind him. Of course, if Sakya Bao refuses, then the matter will become even more suspicious. So, you have to persuade Sakya Bao to go so that I can investigate it." Zhu Di said while looking at Empress Xu.

"Okay, I'll try my best to persuade him to go, ok!" Empress Xu agreed reluctantly.

Empress Xu also knew that as long as Zhu Yunwen's whereabouts remained unknown, her family would never have peace, so she had to find him.

"Okay, it's settled!" Zhu Di finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Empress Xu agreed.

"Hmph, stop scaring the eldest brother all the time. Look how tired you have made him. Without the eldest brother, what would you do? The child is in poor health, and you still have no reason to scare him!" Empress Xu complained to Zhu Di.

"I rarely scare him, really. You ask him, this time, isn't it, hehe, wanting you to take action? I guarantee I can't handle it!" Zhu Di said and laughed.

"Well, the eldest brother is good, and Zhang is also good. Although she would quarrel with the prince in the East Palace, she always thinks about the eldest brother in her heart. She has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Zhanji is also sensible. If Zhanji had not been born, you would not dare to make up your mind to rebel. The eldest brother is in poor health. You should handle some things that you can handle, and don't throw everything to the eldest brother!" Empress Xu continued to speak to Zhu Di.

"I know, I know!" Zhu Di nodded immediately.

Empress Xu didn't want to say anything more to him, so she stood up and prepared to go back. Zhu Di followed her immediately. It was already dark, so they went to Kunning Palace to have dinner.

Xu Qin was extremely happy that the machines had been delivered. Li and the other concubines were all in the living room. They didn't know at first that the machines had been sold. They also heard rumors that the machines were very expensive, costing several hundred taels of silver each. By this calculation, the family earned more than two million taels of silver.

"Don't look at me. I only took 100,000 taels of silver. The rest of the silver is all with Sakya Bao!" Xu Huizu looked at the four women staring at him, knew what they meant, and immediately pointed at Xu Qin.

After hearing this, Xu Qin smiled and took out a bag full of land deeds and house deeds, and said, "Mom, you will be busy from now on. I have bought all of our area at a high price. Tomorrow they will move out, and then you can block off those alleys. The total is 347 acres, plus ours, the total is 362 acres!"

"You...you bought them all?" Li, including Xu Huizu, all looked at Xu Qin in shock.
