The emperor is embarrassed

Ming Zhan began to write a second letter to Feng Jingnan.

Feng Jingnan was quite beautiful when he got the letter, thinking, if his brother didn't show him his son's letter, he wouldn't show his son's letter to his brother either.

Feng Jingnan read the beginning happily, almost turned away in anger, and immediately wrote back to Ming Zhan, scolding him.

What kind of Tianjin port do you want to build in your own nerves? Damn it, what kind of port do you want to build without money!

Open your mouth for 500 million, how can I be taken advantage of by me?

Before Feng Jingnan sent this letter, Feng Jingqian came for a walk, seeing his younger brother's face, Feng Jinggan tried to persuade him, "Well, it was so hard for Ming Zhan to open his mouth. If he refuses, what is his face?"

Feng Jingnan said angrily, "His face is not worth 500 million!"

Feng Jing bargained and discussed with his younger brother, "Why don't you support him less first, 100 million is always there?"

"No, no, not even half a tael of silver." Feng Jingnan scolded Ming Zhan, "I don't have that ability, if I don't build Tianjin Port, the Dafeng Dynasty will have no influence at all. No one forced him to swell his face to look fat, now Putting harsh words, turning around and stealing money from me is unreasonable in the world! Brother Huang, you don’t have to persuade me. Not to mention Ming Zhan is in power, even if you are in power, I will not be able to borrow such a large sum of money. No!"

"Where is the mother's son, I gave birth to a creditor!" The bastard owes him every day to cheat him for money!

Feng Jing was so good at speaking well for Ming Zhan, he pulled his younger brother to sit down, and said with a smile, "Where is it? It's paid off, and there is not much silver."

Regardless of whether you can tell the sky, Feng Jingnan just said, "No money!"

Ming Zhan laughed when he received Feng Jingnan's reply, and wrote to Feng Jingnan again.

Ming Zhan settled the accounts with Feng Jingnan: You gave me the new city of Yunzang trade at the beginning, but the money of the new city is ignored, and it is all regarded as the filial piety of my son.You Shanrentang in Kunming City, I was a shareholder at the beginning, you have to return the money I invested in Shanrentang together with the dividends.

Moreover, Ming Zhan, as the first successor of the Queen Mother Wei, asked Feng Jingnan for the return of the Queen Mother Wei's property in Yunnan and Guizhou, and demanded payment in cash.

In the end, Ming Zhan wrote: Father, you are the king of Yunnan and Guizhou, you will not waste your son's wife's private money, will you?

Feng Jingnan cast aside Ming Zhan's shameless act of asking for money to settle accounts. Because Feng Jinggan was only interested in the imperial capital, Feng Jingnan did not discuss with Feng Jinggan, and he and Ming Qi settled the matter.

In fact, what Ming Zhan said is also reasonable. Kunming Shanrentang is indeed managed by Ming Zhan, and there is also Ming Zhan's money in it.

Furthermore, Empress Dowager Wei has a lot of property in Yunnan and Guizhou, and she has hundreds of thousands of silver.

However, the key point is that Feng Jingnan doesn't want to pay back the money.

"Ming Zhan from Shanrentang gave out tens of thousands of silver, not much. Write him a letter saying that the money will be paid back, let him make a statement in the royal press first: he insists on withdrawing shares from Kunming Shanrentang See if he wants money or face? But," Ming Qi pondered for a while, looking at Feng Jingnan, "he is not looking at the little money from Shan Ren Tang."

Ming Qi smiled resolutely, "Father, I am also my mother's daughter. My mother is still here, and Ming Zhan has no right to handle Yungui's property for my mother."

Feng Jingnan couldn't bear it a bit, "It's only a matter of hundreds of thousands. Ming Zhan is the emperor after all. He asked for money in the last letter, but I didn't agree. This time... I'm afraid he won't look good. , in my heart..."

"Although the money is small, it's nothing if the father gave it to him. But the key is a project like Tianjin Port. Hundreds of thousands are just a drop in the bucket, and it won't be of much use." Ming Qi half-closed her phoenix eyes, knocked on Ming Zhan's letter, "I'm worried that the hundreds of thousands are just Ming Zhan's temptation, and his intentions lie behind."

Ming Qi's words really touched Feng Jingnan's heart, his son became the emperor, this is an opportunity for the Zhennan Palace.If Ming Zhan asked for something, if he refused mercilessly, in the future, it would be inevitable that the Zhennan Palace would ask Ming Zhan.

Stay on the line now, see you later.

Feng Jingnan approached Ming Qi to discuss, and hearing that her daughter agreed with him, Feng Jingnan immediately said, "Since that's the case, why don't I write to Ming Zhan to ask Ming Zhan, so as to save him from asking for a price like a lion."

Ming Qi smiled, "I think so too."

"There is another happy event to tell my father." The handsome eyebrows and eyes were gradually stained with a layer of gentle joy, Ming Qi protected her flat belly with one hand, and said softly, "I'm pregnant."

Feng Jingnan is by no means a stupid person, he scolded Ming Zhan earlier because Ming Zhan took him for a fool.

Now, in the second letter, Feng Jingnan directly stated his difficulties, how much money is needed in Yunnan and Guizhou.I still have to sell blood to make a living, so I really don't have the ability to support the construction of the imperial capital's seaport.Feng Jingnan suggested that Ming Zhan's current money gap is too big, and the Taijin Port project can be postponed. Although this is related to Ming Zhan's face, face cannot be taken for granted.

Secondly, Feng Jingnan emphasized the love of the people of Yunnan and Guizhou for Ming Zhan. If Ming Zhan insisted on taking money from Shan Ren Tang, although he would not publicize it.There is no impenetrable wall in the world, fearing that the people of Yunnan and Guizhou will be extremely disappointed with His Royal Highness, Feng Jingnan advised Ming Zhan not to lose the big because of small things.

Thirdly, Feng Jingnan explained that the property of Empress Dowager Wei in Yunnan and Guizhou has always been controlled by Ming Qi. If Ming Zhan wants to divide his mother’s property, he needs the seal authorization of Empress Dowager Wei. negotiated.As a husband, he never participates in the disposal of his wife's property.

In the end, Feng Jingnan said that if Ming Zhan insisted on building Tianjin Port, although he could do nothing in terms of money, Ming Zhan would not refuse to ask for help in other places where he could help.

At the end, Feng Jingnan, from the perspective of a bystander, used his father's identity to point out some problems in Ming Zhan's governance, and also said that Ming Qi was pregnant.

This is a very rigorous and sincere reply letter, which fully demonstrates the diplomatic skills of a generation of Zhennan kings.

Ming Zhan was really surprised by the news that Ming Qi was pregnant, so he hurriedly went to talk to Queen Mother Wei.

Although Empress Dowager Wei was partial to her son, she was also very happy for her daughter, so she immediately ordered someone to pack up a lot of supplements and clothing, and prepared to send them to Ming Qi.

Ming Zhan said with a smile, "I don't know if it's a boy or a girl, how about I can help with a name or something?"

Empress Dowager Wei laughed, "The first child, son and daughter are the same."

"I like girls." Ming Zhan smiled, "If Ming Qi gives birth to a daughter, I will make her a princess. By the way, I will call her Princess Ning Xin."

Empress Dowager Wei smiled calmly, "Don't say such things, Ming Qi's child is not named Feng."

"Mother, I don't have a child. Ming Qi's child is the closest to me. What can I do if I become a princess?" Ming Zhan smiled, "When the child is older, tell Ming Qi that occasionally sending Ning Xin to the capital to accompany mother nothing."

"That's daring."

Ming Zhan couldn't keep things going, let alone such a happy event, he told people everywhere that Princess Ningguo was pregnant.

Mingyan and Mingya were also very happy for Ming Qi. Ming Yan heard that Ming Zhan had already chosen the name of his daughter, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, there is no need to be in such a hurry. Mingya and I are the firstborn sons. If you want me to say, Ming Qi For this first child, a son is more likely than a daughter."

These days, people favor boys over girls.Mingya also agrees with Mingyan's point of view, "Second sister must also be looking forward to a son. After having a son, she will have a daughter. An older brother can take care of a younger sister. How nice it is."

"Your Majesty, you and Ming Qi are twins. If Ming Qi is like her mother, maybe you will have twins."

Mingya smiled, "That's a great blessing."

"Whether it's twins or daughters, I still like daughters." Ming Zhan smiled, "Look, I give more rewards to my nieces than my nephews every year, right?"

Ming Yan thought it was funny, now that she has two sons and two daughters, Ming Zhan often rewards her daughter almost twice as much as her son, which makes her two sons feel very depressed.

Regarding Ming Zhan's many strange behaviors, the courtiers all blamed the strange customs and customs in Yungui.As a result, the emperor respected women too much, and evildoers frequently appeared in the imperial capital.

Ever since Ming Zhan ordered Wu Wan, Song Xiang, and Xu Bingzhong to preside over the investment promotion of Tianjin Port, as Wu Wan said, she is a woman and Song Xiang lives in the palace, so no one will go to these two places.But in Xu Bingzhong's family, I don't know how many people came to give money to inquire about the inside story.

Fortunately, Xu Bingzhong is a sociable person, and the Xu family has a lot of honest friends. Now those people have errands, and they really made a small fortune, not to mention Xu Bingzhong.

Xu Bingzhong picked out a box of high-quality rubies for her sister to enjoy. Xu Yingyu casually squeezed a piece and put it in the sun for a closer look. The flame-like color shone on her white and tender fingertips. Xu Yingyu asked with a smile, "Where did you get such a good ruby?" thing?"

Xu Bingzhong and his sister had a good relationship. Sitting on Xu Yingyu's couch, he took a bite of an apple and said, "Many people come to our house to give gifts. Cheap."

Xu Yingyu put the gemstone back in the box and said with a smile, "Bingzhong, you shouldn't accept this gift."

"Sister, I didn't say anything, it's not a bribe."

"No." Xu Yingyu shook her head slightly, two light pink pearl aconites swayed quietly on her plain white earlobe, and said, "If you want to be an official, if you want to be a high-ranking official, you can't focus on these petty profits."

"You are not working under some official." Xu Yingyu poured a cup of tea to her brother, and said softly, "You are working under the emperor. This is such a rare opportunity. Think about how many tenants in our family, Would you like the subordinate to collect things like this?"

"Even if these things have nothing to do with bribes, if you accept them, others will have to suspect you. There is nothing free in the world, let alone such precious gems." Xu Yingyu persuaded her younger brother, "Our family is not a merchant's family, my father left It's an official career, and my elder brother is also going to be an official career, and you are similar now. People say that if civil servants don't love money and military officials are not afraid of death, the world will be peaceful. Bingzhong, it's not good if you don't accept money for your business now. But if you accept it, you have to tell me Your Majesty confesses that you have to hand over the silver and jewelry you collected to His Majesty. Only in this way will Your Majesty feel that you are a reliable and usable person."

"Since you are credible and available, His Majesty will trust you and use you again in the future."
