"What's the matter? It's early in the morning."

"Ruowei, Ruowei, she's unconscious, mother, hurry up and find the imperial doctor!"

Hearing the commotion outside clearly, Zhu Zhangui showed a satisfied smile at the corner of his mouth.

"Your Highness, Lady Hu Shanxiang is waiting outside the door."

Seeing that Zhu Zhangui woke up, Yu Qingyao reported in a low voice.

Zhu Zhangui nodded.

"Let her in!"

Soon, Hu Shanxiang, who looked tired, walked in.

"Slaves pay homage to Your Highness!"

Zhu Zhangui got up and sat cross-legged on the bed, looked at Hu Shanxiang who looked tired, and said slowly: "Do you hate me?"

Hu Shanxiang raised his head slowly, looked at Zhu Zhangui for a long time, and shook his head gently.

"It's a pain for her to live like this now, she might as well leave easily."

"As for hatred, I don't have any. I separated from her since we were young, and our relationship has long faded."

Zhu Zhangui smiled.

"Even my own sister dares to attack me. I can't believe it. Will you attack me one day in the future?"

Hu Shanxiang quickly prostrated himself on the ground.

"Everything I have for my servant comes from Your Highness. Without Your Highness, this servant is nothing."

Zhu Zhangui nodded, looked at Hu Shanxiang and said indifferently: "That's just a pack of ordinary sleeping powder, which will only let her sleep for two days."

Hu Shanxiang raised his head in astonishment.

Zhu Zhangui walked forward with a smile and helped Hu Shanxiang up, "Although I hate this bitch, she is the woman of the second child after all. If the second child knows that I killed his woman, with the character of the second child, Will definitely fight with me."

"If I kill this bitch, let's not mention what the old man thinks, second uncle, third uncle will be so happy that snot bubbles will come out."

He patted Hu Shanxiang on the shoulder.

"Go back and wash up. The grand ceremony will be held in a while. Go and see how the two girls are preparing. If you need anything, try to arrange it."

"And my old father-in-law, he should come over in the next two days. They don't have a mansion in Jinling. You go and pick a good mansion, and choose a few clever and capable servants. By the way, tell them, wait for these two days I'm done with my work today, so I'll go back and see their elders."

Tears flowed down Hu Shanxiang's eyes, and he knelt on the ground and gave Zhu Zhangui a hard bow.

"Slaves take orders!"

Zhu Zhangui waved his hand, and said to Yu Qingyao who was still in a daze on the bed: "Why are you still dazed? Why don't you hurry up and get dressed for me?"

While the two girls were getting dressed, Zhu Zhangui chuckled and listened to the commotion outside.

He can't kill this girl surnamed Sun, so he can only let the second child do it himself.

Second child, second child, don't blame me, the eldest brother is also doing it for your own good!

After washing, Zhu Zhangui walked out the door and saw his mother standing outside a wing room looking in.

Zhu Zhangui was planning to go up to join in the fun, when a young eunuch came up to report in a low voice.

"His Royal Highness, Eunuch Zheng He has asked to see you and has been waiting for a while."

"Zheng He!"

Zhu Zhangui was stunned for a moment, didn't this old boy not talk to him, why did he come to see him again.

But after a little thought, Zhu Zhangui suddenly realized.

Zhu Zhangui seems to have heard from someone that Zheng He's new round of voyage has already begun preparations, and he plans to set off in the spring of next year.

"In such a short period of time, the old boy's fleet must not have been formed yet. He probably came here to ask himself for a ship."

Zhu Zhangui's guess was right.

As soon as the two met, Zheng He was not polite, and directly said that the important person wanted a boat.

There was no way, the two were too familiar, and Zheng He, who knew Zhu Zhangui's character very well, was too lazy to be polite.

And this old boy has a big appetite.

If you open your mouth, you will borrow half of the boat under Zhu Zhangui's name, and most of the crew will also leave.

The reason is that he encountered a pirate ship on the road, so he had enough manpower to drive back.

Zhu Zhangui was also speechless.

This old boy seemed to be a little itchy after seeing him go out and rob pirates and make a lot of money.

In fact, Zheng He didn't care about money or anything else. He mainly wanted to get more ships back.

It is too slow to rely solely on the construction of the imperial court.

Leaving aside the speed of construction, getting silver from Xia Yuanji is very difficult.

Zheng He also understood it.

Instead of coming back and begging for help with a smiling face, it is better to be self-reliant.

Seeing that if you don't give it to me, I won't leave Zheng He, Zhu Zhangui complained speechlessly:

"I said, Old Zheng, you're going to ask for a boat to ask for someone, and you're going to ask for half of it directly, and you don't pay half of it. Are you embarrassed?"

"Ha ha!"

Zheng He sneered, and said angrily, "Then when you poached me back then, why did you have the nerve?"

"Good guy, my fleet has less than 3 people in total, and you just poached nearly 2 people for me. Where can I reason?"

"Anyway, no matter what, you have to give the ship and people if you don't."

Zhu Zhangui was angry and funny with Zheng He's shameless appearance.

He reached out and patted the table, pretending to be angry and said: "The person surnamed Zheng, I dug out with my ability, you can't keep it yourself, and you still blame me. I also left the talk today, it is no good, you don't want to get it from me." Take a boat alone."

The two stared at each other for a long time, but finally Zheng He was defeated.

"Okay, tell me, what do you want?"

Zhu Zhangui chuckled and patted Zheng He on the shoulder.

"That's right. As the saying goes, harmony makes money. It's so boring to pinch each other as soon as you meet."

Zheng He snorted twice, and without looking at Zhu Zhangui, picked up his teacup and began to sip it.

"It's like this. I have a few painters under my command. I heard that the scenery in the country of Wa is very beautiful. Didn't the envoys of the country of Wa go with you? I plan to let some painters under me go to the country of Wa with them. By the way, you will also explain Explain to those people in the Wa country, and give me the permission of the artist to travel freely."

Zheng He paused while drinking tea, looked left and right, and whispered after seeing no one: "You are crazy, the Wa country is a country that Emperor Gaozu decided not to confiscate, if you mess around, let the gang of royal officials If you know it, I won’t spray you to death. It doesn’t matter if you are scolded, but don’t involve me, I can’t bear the saliva of those royal officials.”

Zhu Zhangui gave Zheng He a blank look, "You think I don't know, besides, I just sent them to paint, which eye of yours saw my idea of ​​attacking the Japanese kingdom?"

"Besides, is there anything that attracts me in that poor and remote place in Wa country, girl?"

Zheng He stared at Zhu Zhangui in disbelief, "Are you sure!"

Zhu Zhangui nodded vigorously.

"100% sure."

Zheng He still had some doubts.

"This one……"

"Okay, why do you have so many of these and that? I just want you to send a few people there, so there are so many things. If you do this again, I won't lend you the boat and people."

Zheng He was helpless.

"Okay, do what you like! Anyway, if something goes wrong, I will never admit it."

"Hehe, that's right. When something goes wrong, I'll take care of it. What are you afraid of?"

Zhu Zhangui chuckled, took a sip from his teacup, looked at Zheng He and changed the subject and asked, "Where are you going this time?"

Zheng He rolled his eyes.

"Where can I go? Of course, I went to the southeast. The land you scraped in the southwest has gone down a few inches. If I go there, what can I do? You snatched away even the underpants. Someone stabbed a knife?"

Zhu Zhangui chuckled, and whispered in Zheng He's ear: "I know you brought a lot of things to sell this trip, and you have plans to use a knife."

Zheng He looked at Zhu Zhangui warily.

"Don't go too far!"

Zhu Zhangui lightly stretched out a finger.

"I want half of your income."

Zheng He stood up suddenly, and shouted: "Half! Thanks to what you said, why didn't you grab it?"

Chapter 80: Parade, fishing plan, kill them all.

After grinding their teeth for a long time, the two finally decided on the distribution of benefits for the sea trip.

Zhu Zhangui paid half of the ship and manpower, and gave Zheng He a batch of goods at the cost price.

After Zheng He came back, after paying the principal of the goods, Zhu Zhangui was divided into four levels of benefits.

After signing the contract in black and white, Zhu Zhangui happily sent Zheng He away.

"Old Zheng, don't leave in a hurry! Wait until I get married and drink the wedding wine before leaving."

Standing at the gate of the East Palace, he waved off Zheng He, and Zhu Zhangui went back to watch the excitement humming a little tune.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

As soon as the eastern sun emerged, the door of Jin Yiwei was slowly pushed open.

Afterwards, a large number of Jin Yiwei came out sullenly and stood on both sides of the road, maintaining order.

"Crash, crash, crash!"

Just as the brocade guards on both sides stood up, the sound of iron chains resounded from the dark doorway.

A prisoner wearing a prison uniform with a numb expression was escorted out.

"My lord, the prisoner has already proven himself!"

After thousands of prisoners were escorted out, a Jin Yiwei came to Ji Gang and handed Ji Gang a roster in his hand.

Taking the roster handed over by his subordinates, Ji Gang picked up a cinnabar pen and drew a cross on it every time he turned a page.

As the last page was swiped, Ji Gang dropped the cinnabar pen in his hand and glanced at the officials of the Ministry of Punishment next to him.

The officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice nodded with apologetic smiles, took a step forward, and said coldly, "All the prisoners have been verified and will parade through the streets for half a day until they arrive at Caishikou in the south of the city, and they will be executed!"

As the verdict was delivered, there were deafening cries among thousands of prisoners.

Some people even shouted injustice.

An old man in the lead pointed at Ji Gang and cursed.

"Ji Gang dog thief, you are so wronged and innocent, you will die badly, the old man is waiting for you below, waiting for the day you will be liquidated, hahaha."

"Noisy!"

Ji Gang snorted coldly, and Jin Yiwei, who was guarding the prisoner, whipped wildly when he lifted the whip.

There were screams in an instant.

"Take away Parade!"

After the chaos was suppressed, Ji Gang waved his hand coldly, and the prisoners walked slowly towards the street under the escort of Jin Yiwei.

At the front of the line, several officials from the Ministry of Punishment beat the gong and read out the crimes of these prisoners.

The people in the city who were alarmed by the movement took to the streets one after another, looking at the tired prisoners with scars all over their bodies, discussing in low voices.

"I heard that they are all rebels. I don't know what they did?"

"You don't know that, do you?"

"A few days ago, His Highness Taisun was ambushed and killed when he returned to the palace. If His Highness Taisun's guards were not capable, I am afraid that he would be in trouble."

"And these prisoners were implicated in it, and some of them were assassins who were assassinated."
