Under the dim light, Zhu Yuanzhang pounded his legs and looked up at Zhu Yunwen, who was standing in the distance.
He was still very kind, and this grandson was just as filial and benevolent.
"You're so thoughtful."
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly sighed.
He had been out of the palace these days and had forgotten about the other grandson of the Eastern Palace.
Zhu Yunwen was still standing in the middle of the hall.
In stark contrast to the other grandson, this grandson seemed to pay more attention to etiquette and the etiquette of monarch and minister.
Yes, Zhu Yunwen had always treated Zhu Yuanzhang like this.
Because he wanted to show all the scholars in the Imperial Academy that he was an obedient crown prince.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang hoped that his grandson would not treat him as a ruler and an emperor all the time.
He hoped that he could be like his other grandson, running to him every day like glue, hugging his shoulder and bragging to him from time to time.
If he said too much, his other grandson would automatically serve Zhu Yuanzhang cold Longjing tea without even reminding him.
Zhu Yuanzhang hoped that these grandsons would treat him as an old grandfather and not be afraid of him all the time. They were afraid of saying the wrong thing and were afraid of overstepping the rules!
His ancestors were all farmers. Even though Old Master Zhu was now the emperor, he was still no different from an ordinary farmer's grandfather when it came to relationships.
Especially after he got old, he paid more attention to family ties.
"Child, come here and sit beside us.”
Zhu Yunwen cupped his fists." Imperial Grandfather, I've overstepped the rules this time. I dare not."”
Zhu Yuanzhang acknowledged with a disappointed expression.
However, Zhu Yunwen did not notice the disappointment on Zhu Yuanzhang's face. He continued politely,"Imperial Grandfather, your grandson hasn't been able to find you recently. I heard that you've left the palace.”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded." Yes, I'm going out for a walk. I'm always in the palace. There are many things that I can't see."”
Zhu Yunwen hurriedly said," Royal Grandfather, I will accompany you out tomorrow. If you go out alone, I will be afraid of loneliness. I will accompany Royal Grandfather so that I can have someone to talk to."”
Zhu Yuanzhang instinctively wanted to refuse. He would leave the palace every day to chat with Zhu Huai. This was probably his greatest pleasure during the period when he lost his son.
But now, looking at Zhu Yunwen's ardent and caring eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang hesitated.
"Yes!" he nodded. Tomorrow, the two of us will go out of the palace to take a look."
Zhu Yunwen secretly clenched her fists and suppressed her excitement. She said calmly,"Yes!"
……
Zhu Yunwen returned to the Eastern Palace.
He told his mother the good news.
When Lady Lu heard this, a smile suddenly appeared on her face.
He touched Zhu Yunwen's head,"Mother's good son, good, you did well."”
After pondering for a moment, Lady Lu continued,"Son, tomorrow, when you accompany your royal grandfather, you must be ten thousand times more attentive. If you encounter something you don't understand, don't force yourself. Learn more from your royal grandfather, learn more, ask less, and speak less.”
"Remember, you have to care about the old master at all times. Be careful and do all the etiquette and filial piety that a grandson should do, especially filial piety!”
"Old Master values filial piety the most. Great Ming's national policy is to rule the world with filial piety. This is very important, understand?”
"I understand!" Zhu Yunwen nodded vigorously.”
……
Zhu Huai went out early this morning.
A workshop had already been built on Salt Mountain. Zhu Huai had bought a dozen laborers from the market and had already started work on the workshop.
Zhu Huai had carefully selected these dozen laborers, and they were all honest men.
One of them was called Fang Laowu, a member of the Revolutionary Army at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. However, Zhu Huai did not ask why he ended up in the slave market.
Everyone had their own secrets and bitter past. Zhu Huai would not touch other people's sensitive points.
He only knew that these men would be his slaves from now on and would never betray him!
Because this was the rule of the game in feudal society!
Since he had already stepped into the rules of this game, he would not use the thinking of the future to think about the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Huai went to the salt mountain to check and found that the fine salt had already reached more than three thousand jin, which was one thousand two hundred taels of silver.
Zhu Huai didn't stay in the salt mountain for long and walked towards the transport company.
Zhu Huai took a deep breath when he arrived at the Transportation Office.
Although he had a bad time with the transport company last time, he had already thought of an excuse to ease the relationship.
Zhu Huai reported the purpose of the small official from the Transportation Division, and the small official went to invite the Transportation Chief.
"Greetings, sir."
Zhu Huai cupped his fists and bowed to Zhang Youbing.
When Zhang Youbing saw Zhu Huai, his legs trembled and his face instantly turned into an extremely flattering expression.
Zhu Huai felt disgusted just by looking at this expression!
"Zhu…Zhu Langjun!"
"Come, let's go in and have some tea.”
"Are you selling salt?"
F * ck!
Zhu Huai had thought of a lot of excuses, but now, he could not be tricked by the other party.
"Well, I won't drink the tea. I'm indeed here to sell salt.”
"Alright, alright, how much?" Zhang Youbing hurriedly said. Three thousand jin? Very well, Zhu Langjun!"
"Men, go get the money for Zhu Langjun!”
No, it wasn't.
Zhu Huai cupped his fists and interrupted him." Lord Zhang, I haven't sent the salt yet.”
Zhang Youbing said," A gentleman must keep his word. I believe in Zhu Langjun. It's fine to pay first. I didn't break the rules."”
"Is that so?" Zhu Huai scratched his head. Alright, I'll get someone to send the salt over later.”
"Good!" Zhang Youbing beamed with joy, then warmly invited Zhu Huai to the yamen's hall for a cup of tea before leaving.
Zhu Huai waved his hand to indicate that he had something to do, and Zhang Youbing did not try to persuade him to stay.
It was really strange.
The people from the Transportation Office seemed to have changed into a different person.
Zhu Huai seemed to have recalled something and was slightly surprised.
Did the old man teach them a lesson?
It must be like this!
While Zhu Huai was lamenting about how powerful the old man was, he also felt a little sorry for him.
In order to arrange for his funeral, the old man had gone beyond the yamen to take action. And these things, the old man had been doing it silently and had never told him!
Zhu Huai knew that in the bureaucrat system, it was the most taboo and the most offensive thing to do things outside the yamen.
However, the yellow-haired old man didn't care at all!
This silly old man…was too thoughtful!
Zhu Huai felt a lump in his throat and took a deep breath." I'll buy you some good wine and food so that you can make an exception and drink some wine!"”
……
On Chang 'an Street, it was drizzling. An old man and a young man were also walking.
