Daming: Depriving Zhu Yunqi of luck at the beginning

Zhu Yuanzhang turned to look at Zhu Xiongying, and asked:

"Good grandson."

"We saw that you didn't say a word just now... what were you thinking?"

Zhu Xiongying put down the dried fruit in his hand and said with a smile:

"Grandpa, grandson has something he doesn't understand."

Zhu Yuanzhang asked:

"What's the matter?"

Zhu Xiongying said slowly:

"This Wu Heng keeps saying that he has nothing to do with being in the court and that he comes from a poor family."

"But the Yangzhou guards guarding the gate of the mansion seem to give him face?"

"Last night, a commoner wanted to approach the gate of the mansion to find an opportunity to sue the imperial court, but they were all driven away by the officers and soldiers of Yangzhou Guard in time."

"Today, this person brought such a large group of literati to make trouble, and Yangzhou Wei didn't care?"

"Just let them block the door so simply?"

"Aren't you really afraid of alarming Sheng Jia?"

After Zhu Xiongying's reminder.

Zhu Yuanzhang immediately realized the strangeness.

Frowning:

"What do you mean... this person is causing trouble at the door, so he has something to do with Yangzhou Wei?"

Zhu Xiongying shook his head and said:

"The grandson doesn't know either."

"Maybe...you need to check the relationship in Yangzhou Guard."

Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes, he hated others to plot against him the most.

Even if the resumption of the imperial examination is something he has long planned to do, he must not be fooled by it!

Although I don't know what Wu Heng's purpose is...

But Lao Zhu felt that this matter was by no means as simple as asking for the resumption of the imperial examination on the surface... We must arrange for someone to investigate further!

Chapter 122 Countless Industries

evening.

Dressed in casual clothes, one old and one young quietly left the mansion through a small door.

These two people are Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Xiongying.

Behind them, He Li and Li Mu Nian followed.

After leaving the house, I came to a small river.

Zhu Xiongying let out a long breath of relief and said:

"Finally out."

"I've been in there all day, and I'm suffocating."

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said:

"This is the inconvenience of going out with our identity."

"But it's okay, aren't we coming out here?"

"My dear grandson, where do you want to go?"

Zhu Xiongying thought for a while and said:

"Just go for a walk."

"Isn't it an ancient saying that there is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below?"

"We didn't play much when we were in Suzhou. Now that we are in Hangzhou, we should do more shopping."

"Or it would be too bad for us to go out to play in the palace this time."

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said:

"It's time to go out for a stroll, let's go, my dear grandson, let's go to the street ahead and have a look."

He Li, who was following behind the two, reminded with a worried face:

"Your Majesty, it's almost time for night ban."

"Are we really going to stay away?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said nonchalantly:

"The twilight drum doesn't hit until three o'clock in the morning. The sun hasn't set yet, so what's the rush?"

"Let's come out to get some air, who's in the way?"

"What's the big deal, let those street patrols catch us and try?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's call left He Li speechless.

I had to say:

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"It's Weichen talking too much."

Zhu Xiongying smiled and said:

"It's okay, let's walk around."

"There is still an hour and a half before the night ban, so why don't we come back in time?"

After all, a group of people walked out.

Soon.

Walked to the door of a teahouse.

When Zhu Yuanzhang smelled a scent of tea, he stopped immediately and said:

"My dear grandson, this tea smells good."

"It is said that Hangzhou is rich in famous tea. It is definitely not the same taste of this tea in the place of origin and as a tribute to the capital... How about we go in and try it?"

Listen to what Zhu Yuanzhang said.

Zhu Xiongying said casually:

"Okay."

"Since you want to drink, Grandpa, let's go in and have a drink."

Go into the teahouse.

A young servant came over, stopped them first, then bowed with fists in his hands and said:

"What a coincidence, gentlemen, our teahouse is about to close... If you want to drink tea, please come back tomorrow."

Zhu Yuanzhang pointed to the guests who were still drinking tea in the teahouse and asked:

"Isn't this someone drinking?"

The boy smiled and said:

"Yes, but they are all previous guests. We will not accept new guests after the hour, so as not to delay the night ban."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard it, he immediately felt regretful, and asked unwillingly:

"It's still early for night ban."

"Can't you just finish our business and then close?"

"It's not like we won't pay you."

The little boy apologized with a smile:

"I'm really sorry, guest officer, according to the rules established by our boss, we must close at this time..."

"Look, can I let you come in for tea? It's not a small talk, is it?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little displeased.

Originally, I was interested in drinking tea, but I was turned away when I came up.

"I've never seen a boss like yours. They don't make money even if they have money."

"Forget it, let's find another teahouse."

The boy reminded him:

"Guest officer, the famous teahouses in Hangzhou are basically owned by our owner..."

"I advise you not to waste this matter."

"If you don't believe me, go outside and look around. At this time, you can only find a restaurant for dinner."

Hear this.

Zhu Yuanzhang furrowed his brows tightly.

Zhu Xiongying asked curiously:

"Then your boss is very powerful."

"The city of Hangzhou is so big, all the teahouses belong to him?"

The boy said rather proudly:

"Little guest officer, we are not bragging to you."

"Our boss is in Hangzhou City, not to mention covering the sky with one hand, it can be regarded as the same."

I heard the boy say that.

Zhu Xiongying couldn't help complaining in her heart:

Are you using these two idioms too strangely?

Just listen to the boy continue to show off:

"In addition to teahouses, there are also many restaurants, all of which are owned by our boss... Oh yes, there are countless villas and fields outside the city..."

"Really?" Zhu Yuanzhang put his hands behind his back and asked angrily, "Then who is your boss?"

The servant didn't hear the anger in Zhu Yuanzhang's words, so he replied directly:

"Who else has such great ability?"

"Of course it's Master Ding of the Ding family!"

"No one in Hangzhou city knows that his uncle is the current prime minister?"

As soon as I heard the word "Prime Minister".

Zhu Yuanzhang calmed down instead.

But Zhu Xiongying knew.

This was Lao Zhu's reaction when he was extremely angry.

Zhu Yuanzhang was not in a hurry to leave.

He asked coldly:

"Prime Minister?"
