Family ancestor Zhu Chongba: What happened to getting your daughter pregnant?
Chapter 90 The Origin of the Assassin
Wandering Palace.
"Your Highness, there is one more thing."
"Your Majesty heard that Hongwu Bookstore has started selling the second half of "Da Ming Zhi" today? It was so sudden that even the Hanlin Academy kept it secret. Your Majesty is a little angry about this."
"You don't know, since His Majesty read the first half, he has taken it out and read it almost every day. He has read it so many times that the pages are almost torn."
Wang Defa hesitated and added with a smile.
"Don't worry, Eunuch Wang, we have already prepared it."
"If you don't come, I plan to send you there myself."
Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, and then gestured to Zi Ning.
Seeing this, Zi Ning hurriedly walked into the hall.
"That's great, otherwise I won't be able to do my job when I go back."
"But, your majesty won't be given one chapter a day, right?"
Wang Defa breathed a sigh of relief and asked tentatively.
"certainly..."
"will not."
Zhu Yunxi nodded and saw Wang Defa was startled, then shook his head and changed his words.
Hearing this, Wang Defa was completely relieved and smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth.
Following the words, Zi Ning had already walked out of it holding a book and carefully handed it to Wang Defa's hands.
"Is this all the chapters in the second half?"
Wang Defa's eyes lit up and he asked in surprise.
"Yes, but this book is not finished, and will continue to be written in the future."
"Go back and tell Grandpa Huang that he is the only one in the entire Kyoto city who holds all the chapters of the second half. Don't leak it."
Zhu Yunxi smiled and said jokingly.
"Okay, I will definitely bring you the message."
"However, I dare to ask one more question. If Your Highness wants to continue writing, I wonder if I can also write this in the book?"
"Even if it's just a name..."
Wang Defa agreed respectfully, and then asked with a slight request.
"It's just a little effort."
Zhu Yunxi smiled and nodded, saying indifferently.
"Hey, that old slave thanked His Highness in advance!"
Wang Defa said with excitement after hearing this.
Now that "Ming Dynasty" is so popular, of course many people want to join in the fun. If it can leave a trace in the history books, it will definitely be a supreme honor.
Afterwards, Wang Defa said goodbye to Zhu Yunxi with his books and returned to Minghe Hall with satisfaction.
...
The next day.
As "Da Ming Zhi" became popular in Kyoto again, Zhu Yunxi's reputation as a talented scholar became even more famous, and the only copybooks became treasures sought after by talented people and beauties. Some people even sold them several times and sold them on the black market in Jiuyoujie. They were all sold at sky-high prices.
Although there was an assassination accident at Mixue Bingge yesterday, it still did not affect the booming business. It was still overcrowded and crowded.
The white money kept flowing into Hongwu Bookstore and Mixue Bingge, and finally went into Zi Ning's pocket after unified accounting by the accounting office.
Zi Ning, as Zhu Yunxi's personal maid, has now become Zhu Yunxi's pocketbook.
Wandering Palace.
back yard.
Zhu Yunxi lazily leaned on the bench in the pavilion, holding a cup of tea in his hand and basking in the sun with interest.
Zi Ning was sitting at the table, tapping the abacus, reviewing the accounts submitted by Du Qian and Qingmei this morning, with a smile on her face.
Everyone is happy when they make money, although Zhu Yunxi didn't originally open the shop for money.
At this moment, Hongyuan walked over quickly from a distance, with a slightly solemn look on his face.
"Your Highness, Feihu reports that the man who sneaked in and out of Jinxiu Palace last night is from the Lu family in Kyoto and the uncle of Crown Princess Lu!"
"And those people who assassinated you are all secretly recruited followers of the Lu family!"
Hong Yuan came closer, bowed her hands, and said in a deep voice.
Hearing Hong Yuan's words, Zhu Yunxi, who was basking in the sun with his eyes slightly closed, suddenly opened his eyes. A murderous intent flashed across his eyes, and then he curled his lips and sneered.
"Should we fight back too?!"
Hongyuan paused and continued to speak.
"Don't be impatient."
Zhu Yunxi shook his head and said softly.
"Your Highness!..."
"Even if we don't move to the Jinxiu Palace, the Lu family is so rampant, can we just let them go?"
Hongyuan frowned and looked at Zhu Yunxi in confusion and asked.
"Don't worry, let them live a little longer and pretend they don't know anything. Someone takes the initiative to give us the clue. How can we be polite to them?"
"When the time comes, I will not let go of not only the Lu family, but everyone!"
Zhu Yunxi sneered, looked at Hongyuan meaningfully and said.
"understood."
Hongyuan had a sullen face and nodded stiffly.
"Go ahead and ask Feihu to pay close attention to every move of the Lu family and not to show any signs of weakness."
Zhu Yunxi continued.
"Yes."
Hong Yuan cupped her hands and replied in a deep voice.
"Don't be so angry. The tea in the pot has just been boiled. Have a drink."
Zhu Yunxi looked at the livid-faced Hongyuan, smiled, pointed to the teapot on the table, and said comfortingly.
Hongyuan kept a straight face and ignored it. She walked aside and leaned against the stone pillar, folding her arms and saying nothing.
Although she had understood His Highness's intention, she was still unhappy because the people from the Jinxiu Palace actually ordered the Lu family to send retainers to assassinate His Highness behind the scenes. This had already touched her bottom line!
Regardless of whether the person behind it is Zhu Yunwen or the Crown Princess, she will never let it go in the future!
"It's been almost half an hour. Are you done?"
Zhu Yunxi didn't pay attention, turned to look at Zi Ning who was still tapping the abacus, and asked with a smile.
"It's over."
Zi Ning finally closed the ledger and said with a smile, a satisfied smile on his face.
What made her happy was not that she made a lot of money, but His Highness's unhesitating trust. After all, that was a huge amount of money.
"Let's go and leave the palace after the calculation is over."
Zhu Yunxi turned over and sat up, threw the tea cup on the table, and walked out with his hands behind his back.
Zi Ning agreed, put away the account books and abacus, and quickly followed.
"Aren't you going to take action?!"
Hong Yuan was stunned for a moment, then chased after him and asked in confusion, with a hint of excitement between his brows.
"Who said we're going to take action?"
"Since we have caught such a big fish and made so much money, of course we have to celebrate, go to the Jiaofang Division!"
Zhu Yunxi glanced at Hongyuan with a smile, showed a sly smile, and said slowly.
After hearing Zhu Yunxi's answer, Hongyuan rolled her eyes, her excitement turning into disappointment.
...
Splendid Palace.
Li Jinglong hurriedly entered the palace and came to Zhu Yunzhen's dormitory.
At this time, Zhu Yunwen was holding a few pages in his hand and reading them carefully. They were the latest chapters of the second half of "The Chronicles of Ming Dynasty" that he had ordered people to buy from outside the palace.
"What was found?"
Seeing Li Jinglong arriving, Zhu Yunwen immediately raised his head and asked seriously.
"It has been found out that the person who assassinated the Third Emperor's grandson yesterday was indeed a retainer of the Lu family!"
Li Jinglong nodded and said with a serious expression.
Hearing Li Jinglong's words, Zhu Yunwen frowned instantly, and a flash of worry flashed between his eyebrows.
"Is there any news from Jinyi Guard and Jinwu Guard? Have they found out that this matter is related to the Lu family?!"
Then, Zhu Yunwen asked worriedly.
"Not yet, but it's hard to guarantee that no clues will be found."
Li Jinglong shook his head and said worriedly.
"Concubine Mother is still too impatient! She didn't even have any discussion with me!"
"Once the Jinyi Guards and Jinwu Guards find out about the Lu family, this matter will be in trouble!"
"If the third child knows, he will definitely not let go of such an opportunity!"
"If it reaches the ears of Grandpa Huang, not only will this not stop the third child, but it will make him more secure in his position as grandson!"
Zhu Yunwen frowned and said in a deep voice.
"Currently, the Third Emperor's grandson doesn't know about it. He just met him when he entered the palace. He even greeted me and seemed to be in a good mood."
Li Jinglong shook his head and said.
"He was assassinated just yesterday. What was he doing out of the palace?"
Zhu Yunwen was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion.
"Jiaofang Secretary."
Li Jinglong said with a wry smile.
Hearing the words "Jiaofangsi", Zhu Yunwen shook his head helplessly, and a disdainful sneer flashed across his lips.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Zhu Yunxi still had the heart to drink flower wine.
"Go to the Lu family and tell the people of the Lu family not to cause trouble again without my permission! If something goes wrong, my mother and concubine will not be able to protect them!"
Zhu Yunwen pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice.
"Yes."
"Do you want to tell the Crown Princess about this?"
Li Jinglong respectfully agreed and asked tentatively.
After all, this matter involves the Lu family, and he is a little worried that there will be misunderstandings between Zhu Yunwen's mother and son...
