At this moment, the King of Han stood up and said," Your Majesty, the Crown Prince is your eldest son and the elder brother of our brothers. Wouldn't it be a joke if he didn't set an example?”
The King of Han stood out and bowed,"Your son seconds. The Crown Prince should express his opinion."
At this time, Zhu Zhanji quickly jumped out and saluted,"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
"Speak!"
"I don't know where the ministers and my two uncles got the news that my father didn't donate any money. My father is the crown prince of a country.”
"Those of you who stand out to ask the Crown Prince to set an example think that you are smarter than the Crown Prince. My father is not worthy of being the Crown Prince.”
The henchmen of the King of Han quickly knelt down and said,"I dare not."
The King of Han looked at Zhu Zhanji and smiled." Then I wonder how much money the Crown Prince donated?"
"Yeah, big brother is the role model for us brothers. I'm afraid it can't be less than 100,000 taels, right?"
Yang Rong stood up and said,"Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince has handed over 150,000 units of silver to the national treasury yesterday. It will be used in Henan and Shandong."
Zhu Di nodded in satisfaction." Second Brother, do you have anything else to say?”
Zhu Gaoxu was stunned and said," Impossible, impossible, big brother, how could big brother have so much silver?”
Zhu Gaosui's eyes lit up as he gave the censor a look.
The Imperial Censor was stunned for a moment before nodding and stepping forward." This humble subject impeaches Your Highness for embezzling and inspecting the silver in the national treasury during the period of supervising the country. Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly."
"Oh, do you have any evidence?"
"Then how does the Crown Prince explain the source of his 150,000 taels of silver?"
Zhu Zhanji was stunned for a moment and laughed. This was simply what he wanted. It was simply giving him a pillow when he was sleepy.
Zhu Di smiled and said," I know about this matter. It was not the Crown Prince's greed. It was the Crown Prince's family who earned it. Moreover, it was not the people's money that they earned. There is no need to talk about this matter anymore."
Zhu Zhanji quickly stood up and said,"Your Majesty, since the Imperial Censor has reported, then I have to ask, where did the two uncles 'silver come from?”
Zhu Di was stunned for a moment and looked at the king of Han, Zhao Wang." Tell me about it."
"Father, we, we…"
"Father, we've worked hard to accumulate this."
Zhu Zhanji smiled and said," That's true. Only Second Uncle can save up money. After all, Second Uncle gives people a handful of gold beans wherever he goes. I think 100,000 taels is not a big deal."
"Since the disaster is urgent, Second Uncle also feels that it is urgent. Do you want to donate another 100,000 taels?”
"Me, me, me!"
Zhu Zhanji smiled and said," Since Second Uncle isn't willing, then he definitely doesn't have the money. Your grandson requests an edict to investigate the source of Second Uncle's hundred thousand taels of silver."
"Yes…"
Just as Zhu Di was about to speak, the King of Han glared fiercely at Zhu Zhanji and stood up, saying,"I am willing to donate another 100,000 taels."
"Third Uncle…"
Zhu Gaosui gritted his teeth and said,"Your son is also willing to donate another 100,000 taels."
Zhu Di nodded in satisfaction and said,"Mm, good. As expected of my son."
The two princes bowed with ugly expressions.
Retreat!
Zhu Zhanji came out with a smile. Just as he was about to go back to eat and prepare to continue sleeping, Zhu Gaochi glared at Zhu Zhanji and said," Who asked you to donate so much money? It's really infuriating."
"Hehehe, Dad, don't be agitated. Dad, don't take the rattan. Hey hey hey, Dad, calm down!"
"Aiyo, it hurts so much. Dad, stop hitting me."
"Mother, save me! My father wants to kill me!"
Zhu Gaochi panted and looked at Zhu Zhanji fiercely." Tell me, why did you donate all the silver? If you can't tell me, I won't have you as my son today. I'll beat you to death!”
Zhu Zhanji covered his butt with one hand and looked at Zhu Gaochi with a bitter face." Dad, we didn't lose this time. We made a profit!"
"Hmph, you've lost all your silver and you're still earning it. Tell me where you earned it. If you can't tell me, I'll beat you to death."
"Father, grandfather promised yesterday that he would confer the title of my great-grandson in a few days."
Zhu Gaochi was stunned for a moment and smiled happily,"If that's the case, it's indeed not a loss."
"Yes, if I become the grand grandson, I'll be the foundation of the country. You can't hit me anymore. You'll be impeached by the courtiers."
Zhu Gaochi laughed," Yes, I won't hit you anymore. You're my son. Why would I hit you?"
Zhu Zhanji was stunned and his body couldn't help but tremble." Dad, what are you doing?”
"Son, I know that you can't spend all the fifty thousand taels you have. Tomorrow, send me thirty thousand taels, understand?”
"Father, the cost…"
Don't think about it. I know that you went to the river to get sand. You don't have such a huge cost. Alright, remember to send it to me.
"Father…"
"I'll soak the rattan when I get back. Moreover, I'll add two large pieces of coarse salt. I think you'll like it."
Zhu Zhanji was stunned for a moment and said with a black face," Dad, don't make a fuss. I'll just bring it to you. Isn't it just a little silver? How could money be more important than our relationship?”
"Yes, you're really my good son."
