The Crown Princess Consort, Lady Lu, had sent someone to investigate. For the old master to care so much about this matter, she had always felt a sense of crisis. She would not feel comfortable if she did not investigate.
What's more, this matter had a lot to do with her son, Zhu Yunwen. Whoever stood in her son's way to become the emperor would not do.
In order to become the Great Ming Emperor's grandson and the future Crown Prince, Zhu Yunwen was also working hard and came to the Imperial College to ask for help from Qi Tai and other teachers.
How could Qi Tai not agree? They were extremely happy and gathered many good friends from the Imperial Court to gather in the Eastern Palace. Just like that, they closed their doors and began to discuss countermeasures.
Zhu Yuanzhang had already heard about Zhu Yunwen's actions from Jiang Feng on his way to Lotus Alley.
After he heard it, he was stunned for a moment and said,"Let's let him think about it himself. He found a bunch of people to help him come up with ideas.”
It was alright. He could be considered a smart person to use the group strategy for his own use.
"It's better than being in the Eastern Palace.”
As he muttered, he arrived at the box in Lotus Alley.
Just as he pushed open the door, before he could enter, he saw the servant boy of the Drunken Immortal Restaurant leave with the rice box.
On the table in the distance, there was a table full of Drunken Immortal Restaurant's signature dishes.
At this moment, it was still warm and steaming.
At this moment, the fragrance assailed his nostrils.
"This Lord is really generous. He covered the cost of our Drunken Immortal Restaurant's meals for three days and even asked for signature dishes for every meal.”
When they left, a servant boy muttered softly.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhu Yu, who came out of the house with a bowl and chopsticks.
"You've booked three days 'worth of food at the Drunken Immortal Restaurant? And they were all signature dishes? Did you make a fortune?"
"Even if you have a mountain of salt, you can't build it like this!”
Zhu Yu took a step forward and mumbled to herself. She wiped the stool clean and placed the chopsticks on the table. Zhu Yuanzhang sat down on it and started eating with the chopsticks.
While eating, he looked at Zhu Yu and said,""Our Hongwu Emperor advocates thrift. Can you finish so many dishes? You brat, this is clearly a waste!"
"It's just for a few days. I don't believe that our Emperor Hongwu doesn't eat a big meal once in a while.”Zhu Yu chuckled and patted her chest."Old Master, eat quickly. After you're done eating, come with us to take a look at the new house.”
Zhu Yuanzhang pulled the prawn meat inside and chewed it in his mouth. He said,"The Great Ming Dynasty hasn't had a good time these past few years. The last time our Emperor Hongwu was extravagant was during the family banquet when the vassal king entered the capital.”
After saying that, he seemed to have thought of something and turned to look at Zhu Yu.
"Wait, did you just say that you wanted to see the new house?”
"It's been more than a year since we last held a banquet? Emperor Hongwu's life was quite hard. He didn't even live as comfortably as a small merchant like me!”
Zhu Yu nodded and continued,"The new house is very big. The founding duke helped me find it. There's also a large courtyard in the third entrance. I bought it according to your standards.”
"You bought a new house?"
"You have money?" Zhu Yuanzhang was very sensitive about money.
"Yes!"
Zhu Yu grinned and said,"I've transferred the salt mountain. This amount!"”
As she spoke, she extended two fingers at him and said at the same time,"Twenty-three thousand silver! We can even get 20% every year!"
What was that?
Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked when he heard this!
This kid now has more money than the surplus of the Ministry of Revenue in the imperial court?
And most importantly,
I can hear the sound of my white hair coming out from my head every day for money
He had no choice! Anxious!
But now…
This kid earned so much money so easily?
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. The more he compared it, the angrier he became. The prawns in his mouth no longer had any fragrance. He looked at the table full of dishes in front of him and couldn't eat them. He simply put down his chopsticks.
"What's wrong? Old Master? Why aren't you eating?"
"Something on your mind? Is the emperor making things difficult for you again?”
Zhu Yu looked at the old man's state and did not have the mood to eat. She quickly asked with concern.
"You guessed right, the emperor is short of money!”
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said,
"Today, the emperor summoned me and let me see the memorial handed over by the Ministry of Revenue. Guess what?”
"Hey! A year has passed, and the money in the hands of the Ministry of Revenue is not as much as the money in your hands.”
"See, the emperor is angry and ordered us to think of a way to get more money for the plan.”
Zhu Yu stretched out his hand to appease him,"The Emperor is making things difficult for you. You might as well tell him to retreat."”
"Old Master, I'm rich now anyway. You can do whatever you want.”
"We're not doing it anymore!"
After saying that, Zhu Yuanzhang stood up and said unhappily,""Stinky brat, the emperor has done us a favor, and we just quit just because we say so? Resign when there's a problem? Wouldn't that make him a deserter?"
"If all the civil and military officials in the court think like you, then how can our Great Ming Dynasty pass?”
"Hey!"
"Alright, alright!"
"Look at your temper!" Zhu Yu saw that the old man was angry, and the beard at the corner of his mouth was twitching. She quickly opened her mouth to appease him, afraid that he would faint from his anger.
"Come, come, come. Let's sit down. I'll accompany you to think of a countermeasure!”
Zhu Yu replied.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded in satisfaction and said,"Hurry up, hurry up, leave more black hair on my head.”
"Alright, alright, don't rush me. I heard the sound of white hair on your head.”
Zhu Yu looked helpless.
If he wanted his help, he should have just said so. He even put on an angry look.
What's wrong? As a father, he was too embarrassed to ask his son for help.
Why did he do this?
Zhu Yu looked at Zhu Yuanzhang. This old man is quite cute, hahaha.
