Madam Lu said proudly and carried Zhu Yunwen towards the study.
Outside the study, she sorted out her expression and revealed a sad expression. As soon as she entered, she cried,
"Your Highness, you can control Xiong Ying. He is going to ruin the reputation of our Eastern Palace.”
"Hmm?"
Zhu Biao, who was in his twenties, was writing something in his study. When he saw Madam Lu enter, he looked up in surprise.
Seeing how sad Madam Lu was, he put down his pen and said,"Sit down and talk slowly. What happened to Xiong Ying?”
"You were handling government affairs in the residence today. You don't know that the court has turned upside down because of him.”
Lady Lu wiped her tears and said with a disappointed look,
"Xiong Ying, this child, actually relied on His Majesty's favor and went to the national treasury to take away a few carts of precious medicinal herbs and gold. Those are all things from the Ming Dynasty, but Xiong Ying squandered them himself.”
"Everyone outside is criticizing us for not having a strict upbringing.”
"I'm fine, but you and sister will be criticized. Xiongying is so lawless at such a young age. Your Highness, you have to take care of it."
"There's actually such a thing?"
When Zhu Biao heard this, he was also furious. He slammed the table and said,"This brat is too outrageous!”
He had come from a time of war, and he knew that it was hard to come by.
Even though his life was better now, he was reluctant to waste anything. He set an example in the court and practiced thrift.
However, his son had actually reached into the national treasury?
Seeing that there was a chance, Madam Lu quickly added fuel to the fire and said with a pained expression,"The things in the national treasury belong to Great Ming! Those were all squeezed out from the teeth of the commoners, but Xiong Ying was actually so extravagant! This is too outrageous."
Then, she pinched Zhu Yunwen in her arms.
Zhu Yunwen immediately took out the snacks in her hand and said,"Daddy, eat."
Madam Lu immediately said with a sad and distressed expression,"Because you're so frugal in the residence, I don't even dare to let Yunwen eat snacks often. He always thinks of you when he sees delicious food, but Xiongying is like this. They're both your flesh and blood, why is there such a big difference…"
"I'll go find him!"
Zhu Biao's face darkened. He immediately stood up and walked out of the study.
Looking at Zhu Biao's departing figure, the sadness on Lady Lu's face disappeared and was replaced with a proud look. She said to Zhu Yunwen in her arms,"Yun Wen, you have to learn from mother's wisdom and be as smart as mother in the future, understand?”
"Yes, I know!"
Zhu Yunwen nodded vigorously.
Lady Lu smiled and stroked his head, but her face revealed a vicious expression."My good son, only our Yun Wen can be the emperor. This mother will help you get rid of Zhu Xiong Ying sooner or later!”
Zhu Biao got into the carriage and headed straight for the Taisun Manor.
However, after getting off the carriage and seeing the majestic Taisun Manor, he suddenly sighed and calmed down.
Xiong Ying, this child, although he had gone overboard this time, he had done a lot of credit for Big Ming…
Not to mention anything else, just the potatoes and sweet potatoes alone were enough to save countless people.
Compared to the contribution made by the potatoes and sweet potatoes, what Zhu Xiong Ying took from the national treasury was not even a drop in the ocean.
Moreover…
He also knew about Madam Lu's character. He, as a concubine, had always been protective of her own shortcomings. In order to let Yun Wen gain favor in front of him, she was afraid that when she told him about this matter, she had exaggerated it.
However…
After all, it was not right to take things directly from the national treasury.
No matter what, Lady Lu did not have the guts to make up a lie. Her eldest son must have gone too far.
Forget it.
After all, Zhu Xiong Ying was also at fault in this matter. A jade that was not polished could not become a treasure. He had to discipline and warn him.
He walked over with a sullen face, ignoring the greetings of the servants along the way.
When he arrived at Zhu Wu's courtyard, he saw Yao Yue and Lian Xing standing guard by the side of the courtyard.
"Greetings, Your Highness!" When Yao Yue Lian Xing saw Zhu Biao, she immediately bowed.
"Is Xiong Ying inside?"
" Yes, but..." Yao Yue said with some difficulty,""His Highness has instructed that without his permission, no one is allowed to enter.”
Zhu Biao was both angry and amused."What are you talking about? I'm his father. Get out of my way!”
"This…"
Normally, when the Crown Prince spoke, the servants would have to move aside. However, Yao Yue and Lian Xing were still standing there with a troubled expression.
Because in their eyes, Zhu Xiongying was the sky.
They only listened to Zhu Xiong Ying. To put it bluntly, even if Zhu Xiong Ying wanted to rebel, they would follow him without saying a word.
At this moment, even if Zhu Biao and Zhu Xiongying's orders were in conflict, they would still stand on Zhu Xiongying's side.
They looked at each other and understood. If the Crown Prince really wanted to barge in, they might have to be rough. No matter what punishment they might receive later, they had to resolutely carry out Zhu Xiongying's orders.
Zhu Xiong Ying had taught them martial arts, so it was not difficult for them to stop the Crown Prince.
Even Zhu Biao said in disbelief,"You want to stop me?"
But at this moment…
Suddenly, an excited voice came from the courtyard,"After four furnaces, I finally succeeded. I'm so tired!”
Then, Zhu Xiong Ying rushed over from the courtyard with a brocade box in his hand. When he saw Zhu Biao, he was surprised.
"Dad, why are you here?"
"Why am I here? I still have to ask you!"
This time, when he saw Zhu Xiong Ying, Zhu Biao didn't care about Yao Yue and Lian Xing anymore. He said in a bad mood,"Tell me, why did you take the medicinal herbs from the national treasury?”
"You already know?" Zhu Xiong Ying was stunned and thought to himself,'You're really well-informed. I just said that I wanted to cultivate and refine pills, and you already know about it?'
"No need to thank me. Isn't this what I should do?"”
