Zhu Youxiao walked to the table, moved his body, and said without looking back: "I heard that Zhang Guogong went to protect the chamber of commerce you made last night?"

Zhu Xu didn't know how much Zhu Youxiao knew about him, but he didn't worry about anything other than firearms. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "It was arranged by the emperor's wife, and the emperor's wife can't see that they always bully me."

Zhu Youxiao laughed again, looked outside and sighed slightly: "You are still too young, if you are older, you can help me a lot."

Zhu Xu was startled when he heard Zhu Youxiao's words.Ever since Ke's death, the relationship between Zhu Youxiao and him has been very delicate, perhaps because of Zhu Xu's own guilty conscience, he always feels that the two are no longer as close as before.

He thought for a while, looked at Zhu Youxiao's back and said with a smile: "Brother Huang, don't you still have Brother Xin Wang? He can definitely help you a lot."

Zhu Youxiao turned around, glanced at Zhu Xu, and limped back.

For some reason, Zhu Xu always felt that his eyes were meaningful, but he couldn't figure it out.

The two lost the common topic of "carpenter", and the atmosphere became a bit awkward. Zhu Xu didn't dare to stay any longer, and quickly left the imperial study.

"Your Highness, have you mentioned to the emperor about moving out of the palace?" Cao Wenzhao asked in a low voice as he walked beside Zhu Xu.

Zhu Xu shook his head. What he had just said to Zhu Youxiao made him feel uneasy.

It seemed that Zhu Youxiao was planning something on him.

As Zhu Xu walked, he murmured and said, "Wei Zhongxian can't be left outside anymore. You tell Xiao Cao to transfer him to the palace, and he is not allowed to go out a step! Also, tell Zhou Yingqiu to restrain those people. When I make trouble, honestly, what should I do?"

Cao Wenzhao was startled when he heard this, and said, "Your Highness, could it be that the Emperor knows something?"

Zhu Xu waved his hand and said: "That's not true, I haven't reached the point where my brother would be afraid, I just sailed carefully."

Cao Wenzhao understood, and thought about it: "Then, Your Highness, do we have to slow down our business?"

"We can't delay!" Zhu Xu said decisively: "Earning money and hoarding food are the two most important things for us at present, and nothing can delay these two things."

Cao Wenzhao nodded, and accompanied Zhu Xu straight to the outside of the palace.

"Change carriages." In the carriage, Zhu Xu said.

Cao Wenzhao followed his advice, changed it not long ago, and said, "Change it again."

Cao Wenzhao was startled, and said: "Your Highness, there should be no problem, do you really have to be so cautious?"

Zhu Xu nodded, and said: "Luo Sigong is different from others, you must be cautious. Also, prepare more carriages, the ones that are inconspicuous."

Cao Wenzhao agreed, arranged another transfer, and then drove the two of them to an inconspicuous small teahouse.

The one who came out was a young man with fair complexion and surprisingly fair skin. He bowed slightly to Zhu Xu and said, "I have seen His Royal Highness Hui Wang, my lord has been waiting inside for a long time."

Zhu Xu looked at the young man, vaguely felt that something was wrong, nodded, and walked inside.

"Your Majesty has seen His Royal Highness Hui Wang." As soon as he entered the box, Luo Sigong came out to greet him and bowed in obeisance.

Zhu Xu looked at Luo Sigong who looked old and blushed sickly, and said with a smile: "Master Luo, you are welcome, please sit down."

Luo Sigong sat across from Zhu Xu, looking at Zhu Xu carefully.It's not that he hasn't seen it before, it's just that Zhu Xu was almost transparent before, and he never cared about it.

Zhu Xu also looked at Luo Sigong, for this, he knew too much and was the most vigilant.

Both of them looked at each other, their eyes testing each other.

After a long time, Luo Sigong smiled lightly and said, "Your Highness, is there anything you want to ask me?"

Zhu Xu also smiled and said, "What does your lord think this king wants to know?"

Luo Sigong thought for a while, and said, "For example, is your Highness really so sure of where the Water Transport case will go?"

Zhu Xu said to himself: "No matter where it goes, I can always get what I want."

Luo Sigong kept his gaze on Zhu Xu's eyes, and said: "Your Highness, you know, today, there are not [-] but [-] papers for the impeachment of Zhao Shangshu. According to the old man's prediction, Zhao Shangshu will resign and return home soon."

But Zhu Xu shook his head and said, "This king is sure that Zhao Shangshu will not retire this year."

Luo Sigong saw an indescribable confidence in Zhu Xu's eyes, frowned, and said, "Your Highness, what exactly do you want?"

Zhu Xu also kept looking at Luo Sigong, the two of them were like fighting cocks, neither of them took a step back, he said with a smile: "What does your lord think this king wants?"

Luo Sigong looked at Zhu Xu, his expression unchanged, and slowly said: "Your Highness, do you want to go further?"

As soon as his words fell, whether it was Cao Wenzhao who came with Zhu Xu, or the young man behind Luo Sigong, their expressions changed drastically, and then they stared at Zhu Xu with burning eyes.

Zhu Xu is already a one-word king, and if he goes one step further, he will be sitting where Zhu Youxiao is now.

emperor!

Chapter 116 anticlimactic

Zhu Xu didn't expect Luo Sigong to ask such a question at all, and couldn't help being startled, looking at him, thinking about the meaning behind his words.

Luo Si respected countless people, and looked at Zhu Xu's eyes and expression with burning eyes, not letting go of a single bit.

After a long time, he felt relieved.He can be sure that this extremely intelligent His Royal Highness Hui Wang does not have that kind of thought, at least not now.

Luo Sigong looked at Zhu Xu who was still hesitating, and smiled slightly: "Your Highness, do you know that Dongchang has already taken Li Jinyan, and is going to take over the investigation of the water transport?"

Zhu Xu soon came to his senses, no matter what the old fox's plan was, how could he really see through his mind and understand all his actions!

As long as you don't have a handle, even if you have a smooth tongue, you can't move him now!

Zhu Xu laughed, looked at Luo Sigong and said, "Of course I know."

Dongchang's sudden intervention happened last night. Obviously, Qingliu had a certain consensus with Liu Shimin, the eunuch of Bingbi, who is known as the Minister of Rites.

Luo Sigong looked at Zhu Xu and said, "Then, is Your Highness still confident to proceed with your plan?"

Zhu Xu shook his head and said, "This king has never designed anything."

Luo Sigong looked at Zhu Xu, frowned, and said, "Your Highness, do you have any intention?"

"Yes." Zhu Xu smiled. If it was something else, he would not have the upper hand, but when it comes to this matter, no one in this era would guess his real purpose.

Luo Sigong's expression finally changed, and after careful consideration, he said, "Didn't your Highness want to have a hand in water transportation so that your business can expand to the south of the Yangtze River?"

"One." Zhu Xu said concisely.In the face of such an old fox, many words will be lost.

Luo Sigong looked at Zhu Xu, with a strange light in his eyes, and said, "Is your highness sure to grab food from Dongchang's mouth?"

"No." Zhu Xu smiled more and more.

Luo Sigong looked at Zhu Xu, and suddenly laughed, and said, "Since Your Highness is willing to come to see me, there must be something you want me to do, right?"

"It's the same if you ask your son to do it." Zhu Xu kept smiling, not leaking any flaws.
