Domineering Daming

Luo Sigong laughed, and there seemed to be endless wisdom hidden in the smile, and he said slowly: "You don't understand, it's just that you don't have enough experience, not that you are not smart enough. His Royal Highness Hui's actions this time hide a lot of things. Even people can't see through it, but Jin Yiwei can't do without the help. When Yang Xing comes back, ask him to tell King Hui that I want to see him."

Looking at Luo Sigong's old face and the white hair on his temples, the young man's expressionless face moved.

He heard from Luo Sigong's words that Luo Sigong was going to leave him alone.

The next day, the sky was bright, and Zhu Xu was dressed neatly, sitting at the door, holding a large bowl of shaved ice watermelon, eating while looking at the direction of the Golden Luan Hall with a smile.

He is very clear about the temperament of those adults in the court, since he gave them a start and smelled blood, there is no reason not to pounce on them and smell them, and then bite them hard.

It stands to reason that the center of this matter should be water transportation, but Zhu Xu also understands that adults who have mastered the Great Teleportation Technique will soon turn this matter into a factional struggle. In the end, either one party will give in, or both parties will compromise, and everyone will be happy .Or it is to fight to the death, to die endlessly, and to lose both sides.

Naturally, the final decision is still in the hands of his imperial brother, but most of this kind of decision depends on how the adults interpret it.Because, Zhu Youxiao's understanding of water transportation is not much better than that of an ordinary person randomly pulled out from the street.

The reason why Zhu Xu laughed was because no matter how these grown-ups came, the matter had already been opened, and there must be a result.This result must show the "fairness" of the court, and also show the "loyalty and integrity of the country" of the adults.

Ever since, someone must be unlucky, and the benefits must be given up.

Zhu Xu didn't care how the court officials came and how they fooled Zhu Youxiao, if he couldn't satisfy his appetite, then the matter would not be over.

"Your Highness, be careful of catching a cold."

Yao Qingqing came out from inside, put a blanket on Zhu Xu's lap, and said softly.

Zhu Xu pushed back, turned to look at her and said with a smile: "Miss Qingqing, if someone wants to give you money, how much do you plan to ask for?"

Yao Qingqing was stunned for a moment, she had always been indifferent to silver, she shook her head slightly and said, "I don't need silver."

Zhu Xu nodded with a smile on his face, and said, "That's right, I don't want money, I want a boat!"

Chapter 107

The sky is getting brighter and getting a little hotter.

Zhu Xu took off the blanket, put down the watermelon in his hand, walked to the steps, and did simple gymnastics to loosen his muscles and bones.

"Well, today is a beautiful day!"

Looking at the tinge of red in the east, Zhu Xu felt better and better.

"Boom boom boom!"

From the direction of Qianqing Palace, there was a dull and crisp bell. Zhu Xu smiled even more when he heard this sound.

"Your Highness, would you like something to eat?" Yao Qingqing said softly, stepping across the threshold to Zhu Xu's voice.

Zhu Xu waved his hand and said loudly: "Don't eat, go to bed!" After speaking, he turned around and walked into the bedroom.

Yao Qingqing felt that His Royal Highness Hui Wang was a little strange today, so he pursed his lips and followed him in.

In Zhu Xu's sleep, time passed by bit by bit, the sun was getting stronger and stronger, hanging high above the capital, scorching everything.

Zhu Xu was so hot that he tossed and turned on the brocade quilt. Because of the ice cubes, the room always felt damp and uncomfortable.

After what Zhu Xu thought was a long time, he managed to overcome his anger, opened his eyes, and staggered out of the room.

Yao Qingqing was making his favorite jelly outside, when he saw Zhu Xu got up, he wiped his hands quickly, greeted him and said, "Your Highness, wash your face first, so you can wake up your eyebrows."

Zhu Xu nodded blankly, walked to the recliner, and lay there weakly.

"I can't sleep at night, and I can't sleep well during the day. The bad habits I developed before have come back..." Zhu Xu sighed, his mind was hazy and confused.

Yao Qingqing pursed her lips and smiled, and came over with a water basin, "The main reason is that the weather is too hot, and it's normal to want to sleep."

Zhu Xu looked at Yao Qingqing, who was in high spirits, and was not comforted at all. He stretched out his hand into the water, and suddenly he had a clever idea, and put ice cubes in the water.

He sat up, poured cold water on his face, felt the coolness on his skin, and finally woke up a little bit.

"Has Xiao Cao ever come to look for me?" Zhu Xu asked after wiping his face and looking outside.

Yao Qingqing walked away with the water basin and said: "Eunuch Cao has been here, and he left after knowing that His Highness is sleeping."

Zhu Xu hummed, and thoughtfully said, "That's pretty much what I expected."

According to his previous thinking, no matter how big the matter is, even if the sky falls, the first thing to do in the court is to confront each other for a few days before dealing with the problem.Naturally, there is still noise in the process of processing, and the noise determines the benefits. Whoever has the loudest and most powerful voice determines who can get more benefits.

Not long after, Cao Huachun came in and said, "Your Highness, as you expected, there was a fierce debate in the court about the matter of water transport. Many people thought it was important and should be dealt with as soon as possible. Most people thought it was too important to deal with. act rashly."

Zhu Xu smiled and said: "In the end, I was suppressed by the emperor, and ordered the Ministry of Households to discuss it again?"

Cao Huachun nodded and said: "Yes, but the Ministry of Households does not have the right to deal with water transportation, and it still needs to be decided by the court."

Zhu Xu nodded, the Governor of Water Transport is a second-rank official, and the Minister of the Household Department is also a second-rank official. Although he was subordinate to the Household Department earlier, it has become a relatively independent government over time, and even the cabinet cannot easily intervene.

"Let them fight." Zhu Xu was not in a hurry, and said with a smile: "The more they quarrel and the longer they fight, the more interests there will be, and the more we will share."

Cao Huachun echoed, hesitated for a moment, and said cautiously: "Your Highness, in addition, I heard that in today's court meeting, someone mentioned His Highness's workshop in the east of the city."

Immediately Zhu Xu raised his brows, his expression became congealed, and he said, "Who mentioned it, and what did you say?"

Cao Huachun said: "It's a tip from the Ministry of Officials, saying that the low price of His Highness's workshop disturbs the price of goods in the capital, and the people's grievances are boiling. It should be confiscated to help the Nine Frontiers. The Ministry of War intends to move."

"The official department is in progress?"

Zhu Xu narrowed his eyes, Zhao Nanxing is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, he gave this instruction?What is his purpose?Want to divert the court's attention?

He knocked on the edge of the chair with his right hand, and began to think in his mind.

In his workshop, the puffing used is less than half the cost of a steamed bun on the market, and most of it is mixed with sweet potatoes and corn, so the cost is even lower.

In other words, if a hundred steamed buns normally earn thirty coins, he can earn seventy coins, or even more!

Shanhaiguan is not far from the capital, so if it is really necessary to supply the Ministry of War, it is not impossible.It's just that it's okay for a short time, but if the time is long, I'm afraid it's just seeking skin from a tiger, and the gain outweighs the loss.

"Your Highness."

Just as Zhu Xu was thinking, Cao Wenzhao hurried in from the outside.

Zhu Xu looked up at his anxious face, and asked in a daze, "What happened?"

Cao Wenzhao said with anger on his face, "Your Highness, just now a batch of sweet potatoes transported into the city was seized by the patrol camp of the Right Guards, and my subordinates did not release them even though they asked them to negotiate."

Zhu Xu tilted his head slightly, then the corners of his mouth twitched, his eyes were full of sarcasm, and he said, "Two-pronged approach... Is Master Zhao really planning to use this king as the top of the vat?"

Before, Zhu Xu only thought that Zhao Nanxing was trying to confuse the audience and confuse the attention of the court council, so as to buy time and clean up the problems exposed by Li Jinyan without being too passive.

But now Zhu Xu understands that Master Zhao is clearly going to make a big fuss about his workshop and bring trouble to the east!

Cao Wenzhao looked at Zhu Xu with a strange look, and said, "Your Highness, what should we do, should we put pressure on the right guard?"
