Over a hundred ships.
This time, the commotion was even greater than before.
Because of the first time, when King Qiong's ship entered the Yangtze River, almost everyone knew what was inside.
Along the coast, commoners swarmed over.
He looked at the ships.
Even if they couldn't actually see anything.
However, they couldn't help but feel excited.
It even made them excited.
It wasn't just the commoners who were attracted. Even the officials along the way couldn't help but be attracted.
Many people's eyes lit up.
However, they didn't dare to do anything against King Qiong's ship.
He could only wait for his eyes to see.
Under the gazes of countless people.
The ship gradually entered the capital.
When they reached the shore.
Countless commoners who had already known about it flocked to the dock at this moment.
And this time, they were not disappointed.
Just like the first time, the cloth covering the food was removed. The carts of food and gold bars almost blinded everyone's eyes.
This included those who thought they were rich.
"A car!"
"Two cars!"
"Three carriages!"
"Four carriages!"
.....
Some people were muttering to themselves, some were counting, and some were extremely excited.
If not for the capital.
If it wasn't for the fact that he was a guard, it was obvious that he was an elite soldier. Perhaps some people would have taken the risk.
At the same time.
Countless gazes gathered on it.
Some of the figures who had followed Zhu Bai back secretly left, heading towards their own home.
Unfortunately, they were destined to be disappointed.
No one in the entire Qiongzhou Prefecture knew about the secret of gold and silver, let alone these investigators.
The system was enough to guarantee that the secret would not be leaked at all.
Even if they were to torture him, they would not be able to get anything out of the system.
Naturally, they had no way of knowing.
And towards these people, Zhu Bai didn't really care.
With absolute control, these people could not do anything.
In contrast, he was more concerned about another point.
Or rather, his eldest brother, Crown Prince Zhu Biao.
On the way back, he had already received the news.
His big brother, Crown Prince Zhu Biao, was seriously ill.
It was exactly the same as in history, the same cold, the same illness in bed.
Such an outcome made him somewhat worried.
It seemed that his reminder did not change the course of history. His elder brother was still seriously ill. In this way, it might not be long before his elder brother would be buried. Once the Crown Prince passed away, his cheap father would probably turn evil.
At the same time, the entire court would be thrown into turmoil.
To him, this was not necessarily a good thing.
Although he was no longer afraid of Old Zhu.
But now was not the time to have a conflict with Old Zhu.
Thoughts ran through his mind.
Soon, he met a familiar figure again.
"Your Highness King Qiong!"
Song Zhong said respectfully, his peripheral vision involuntarily turning to look behind Zhu Bai.
Even he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
He couldn't help but think of the first time they met.
It was the same scene, the same scene.
The only difference was that the gold was even more dazzling.
"Lord Song, please send these to the Ministry of Revenue.”
As Song Zhong spoke, Zhu Bai came back to his senses and spoke to Song Zhong.
"Alright, Your Highness, don't worry. I guarantee that it will be delivered safely.”
"If you're short of a copper coin, I, Song Zhong, will see you!”
Song Zhong quickly said.
He did not dare to be negligent.
As for corruption, forget it.
That emperor hated corrupt officials to the core. Song Zhong did not want his skin to be used as fur.
"Lord Song, I can rest assured!”
Zhu Bai nodded, then waved his hand and handed the supplies over to Song Zhong.
Then, he stepped into the palace.
However, this time, he entered the palace.
Zhu Bai immediately felt something unusual.
Just like this moment.
"Your Highness, His Majesty is in a rage this time. Your Highness, remember not to mention His Highness the Crown Prince.”
An old eunuch leading the way carefully spoke.
Hearing the old eunuch's words, Zhu Bai was stunned for a moment before nodding.
However, at this moment, he couldn't help but think about it.
He was not a fool.
He vaguely understood something.
However, he did not say anything.
After all, he knew all about history.
After nodding his head slightly, he continued walking.
Soon, they arrived outside the hall.
This time, it was also the time for the court meeting.
All the officials were present.
Other than the Crown Prince's jewelry, there was no absence. All the vassal kings had arrived.
Other than Zhu Di, who was not present, Zhu Di was ordered by Old Zhu to lead Duke Ying Fu Youde to capture Ashili and the others.
Now, they were in the desert.
At this moment, the hearts of these kings fluctuated, and their eyes flickered with light.
"Your Highness King Qiong is here!"
The eunuch's voice rang out as Zhu Bai slowly walked into the main hall.
"Your son greets Imperial Father. Long live Imperial Father!”
Zhu Bai entered and immediately brought Old Zhu to bow.
"Get up. I heard that you brought back a large amount of gold, silver, and grain this time!”
Looking at Zhu Bai, Old Zhu's anger subsided a little.
"Imperial Father, your son brought back five million catties of grain, ten million catties of dried fish, twenty million taels of gold, eight million taels of silver, and seven hundred thousand catties of copper ingots.”
His voice was sonorous.
His voice was calm.
However, the words he said made the eyes of all the officials present, even Old Zhu and the vassal kings widen.
"Your Highness, are you serious?"
"There really are hundreds of thousands of pounds of copper ingots!”
Lu Chang could not help but speak.
To the Minister of Revenue, gold might be tempting enough. In the Ming Dynasty, the main currency was copper coins, not gold and silver.
Gold and silver were not as attractive to him as copper coins.
700,000 Jin of copper ingots was a fatal temptation to him.
"Minister Lu, if you don't believe me, you can go to the Ministry of Revenue to check!”
Zhu Bai said with a smile.
He could naturally understand the ups and downs of this Minister of Revenue. This was also the main reason why he had brought the copper ingot.
"Haha!"
"Alright, Twelve, you really didn't disappoint me, unlike these trash.”
Old Zhu said with a big laugh. He seemed extremely happy.
As he spoke, his gaze was fixed on the few vassal kings.
"Imperial Father is too serious. It's all thanks to Imperial Father's favor that your son has only made some small achievements!”
Zhu Bai said respectfully.
"Alright, don't be too humble.”
"From today onwards, King Qiong will be King Nan. From now on, you can temporarily stay in Jingdou.”
Old Zhu pondered for a moment and then spoke.
His words immediately caused an uproar among the officials. Even the expressions of the vassal kings could not help but change.
Similarly, Zhu Bai's expression also changed slightly.
He didn't expect Old Zhu to ask him to stay.
And this was not good news.
At this moment, even he did not know what Old Zhu was thinking.
Did she think that he was too powerful, or did she have other thoughts?
However, shouldn't the King of Yan be the strongest at this moment?
At least on the surface.
As his thoughts flowed, Zhu Bai instantly had countless thoughts.
In the end, he gritted his teeth and spoke.
"Imperial Father, your son found an unexpected map of Yinshang. I'm afraid I can't serve you. I want to go and find Fusang Continent.”
He spoke.
What a joke, he didn't want to stay in the capital.
The capital was going to be the most dangerous situation. Although as Old Zhu's son, no matter how dangerous it was, his life would not be in danger, he did not want to cause trouble for himself.
To avoid trouble, he naturally had to leave.
As for the excuse, he instantly thought of one.
What could be more suitable than searching for the American continent?
Obviously not.
It shouldn't be a problem for him to go to the New World for two to three years.
At that time, wouldn't he disappear in front of Old Zhu's eyes?
This way, he would naturally have less trouble.
As for whether or not to find a new mainland, that would be up for discussion later.
The key was to leave the capital first.
He didn't want to get involved. Even if nothing happened, he didn't want to.
As for the throne.
Zhu Bai didn't have much hope.
He knew his father's personality the best. With Old Zhu's feelings for the Crown Prince, even if the Crown Prince died, the throne would not have much to do with the other princes.
Not to mention him, even if it was a legitimate son like the King of Yan, coupled with his powerful abilities, there was no chance.
This bastard son of his should wash up and sleep.
In that case, he would be a fool if he still participated
.”
"Isn't that the Wei Nation?"
Old Zhu was stunned for a moment before he spoke with a puzzled tone.
Now, Fusang had basically been replaced by the name of the nation of the Japanese.
When Zhu Bai mentioned Fusang, Old Zhu immediately thought of the Wei Nation.
However, what puzzled Old Zhu was the relationship between the Yinshang ancient map and the Wei Nation.
As for the Wei Nation's divine medicine and the 10,000 catties of grain per mu, that was pure nonsense.
Now, China was extremely familiar with the Wei Nation. The Wei Nation was extremely barren, and it was even worse than the grasslands.
At least there were horses and cows on the grasslands.
