Besides, he didn't know anything about what happened in Fengyang, and he had heard of counterfeit drug accidents in Nanjing and Suzhou, but he heard that it was completely done by a black-hearted businessman, and it had nothing to do with the medicine he developed, so he didn't pay attention to it. It was natural for Zuo Ling to return to Fengyang, there was nothing strange, and he didn't care, let alone that the Zuo family was in crisis.

On this day, the Zhongshan Mansion set up a family banquet to invite Chen Musa and Pomegranate, and he, as Pomegranate's quasi-son-in-law, was naturally invited, and there was no way to shirk this matter, after all, Pomegranate and the Duchess of Wei were still godmother-daughter relationships, and they were also his godmother-in-law, and this relationship was indispensable after they got married in the future. He was very distressed about it.

The banquet had to be stubborn, but fortunately, he just took a picture with the Duchess of the country, and came down after going to the hall to meet him, and then the little prince and brother took him to a pavilion, which was where their juniors ate and drank.

"How about coming to my house for the first time?" the little prince was not without boasting.

Besides, he smiled indifferently and understood that he was not boasting to himself, but knew that Wang Ruofei in Suzhou was building the Humble Administrator's Garden, and he was ambitious and wanted to build the first garden building in the south of the Yangtze River.

Of course, the Zhongshan palace is majestic and magnificent, this is the first mansion built by Emperor Taizu for the meritorious heroes, all the wood is made of nan wood, except that there is no glazed tile, the other specifications are almost a specification with the palace, and many princes' mansions built later are far less expensive than here.

This kind of palace-style building is naturally not comparable to the kind of garden-style building with the spirit of a small family, not to mention living, that is, the annual maintenance cost can make the average rich man go bankrupt directly, and the money for repair and maintenance is enough to build several brand-new mansions in the past hundred and ten years.

Of course, this kind of huge expenditure is not without benefits, that is, the palace is full of charm, and there are traces of a hundred years everywhere, as if time is condensed in a brick, tile, tree and tree, which makes people wander in it, and can't help but sigh at the wonder of the years and the weakness of life.

If you just talk about the palace building, it is actually a specification higher than the Marquis' Palace, but this kind of taste full of time is much more than the Marquis's Palace.

"Well, the first one in Jiangnan. And praise without exaggeration.

"Haha, of course. You can be regarded as my family's godson-in-law. The little prince went around in a circle and turned here.

"Don't dare to be. Besides, thinking of the cold and cold face of the Duchess of Guo, he smiled bitterly.

"Okay, my mother is like that, she thinks that pomegranates are a waste to anyone, even if you are a princess, you are wronged, so don't feel wronged. ”

"Only Senior Brother is the most qualified in that day?" said in a loud voice.

"Of course, I'm my mother's only son. The little prince laughed.

The two of them sat down first, and there were many sparse children in the palace, some of them were gorgeously dressed, and some of them were ordinary as ordinary citizens, and some people had no lack of arrogance on their faces, as if this majestic palace had much to do with him, in fact, if they were serious, he had to turn a few corners to get in touch with the Duke of Wei. Some of them were originally wealthy, but now they are slightly weakened, so they have a kind of shabby and shrinking air everywhere.

The emperor will also have a few poor relatives, this is not a lie, the emperor does not have a few poor relatives, but there are too many.

After Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, conquered the world, his family was only his elder brother, but at the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were more than 200,000 dragon sons and grandsons, and one person bred more than 200,000 people in more than 100 years, which is the terrible growth of the algebraic level.

Among these more than 200,000 people, there are not many who are really rich and powerful, except for some princes and county kings, almost all of them are the children of the last genus, and they are all dragon sons and grandsons in terms of blood.

Liu Huang's uncle Liu Bei is still the descendant of the genuine Liu Bang, and the ancestors of the family were buried in golden clothes. But Uncle Liu Huang was poor in the end and could only sell straw mats and straw shoes, and Cao Cao liked to scold him for being a "shoe seller", which was to expose his shabby appearance back then.

Liu Bei doesn't care about this, since ancient times, heroes don't ask where they come from, as long as they can conquer the world, poverty and shabby are not stains. It is not that there are no such people, Emperor Guangwu of the Later Han Dynasty was a prodigal son who could not study or do business, but he established the Eastern Han regime.

Of course, when Cao Cao wanted to use Liu Bei, he cooked wine with him with green plums, and then said: "The heroes of the world are only the kings and lonely ears." Liu Bei's chopsticks fell to the ground, so he could only cover it up by the thunder that happened to pass in the sky.

The dozen or so children standing outside the pavilion all belong to Xu Da's descendants, but they are gradually estranged from Wei Guogong's long-term bloodline, and their power is too far behind.

Wei Guogong did not forget these poor relatives, as long as there were outstanding children in these families, he would take them into the mansion to cultivate, hire the best teachers for them, and give them some treatment, so that they could study with peace of mind and strive for a good future.

The Ming Dynasty stipulated that the descendants of meritorious heroes could not participate in the imperial examination, could not be officials, and could only enjoy their own wealth. This is also the meaning of restricting meritorious heroes from competing with the people for profit, if the children of meritorious heroes participate in the imperial examination, there will be no children of poor families who promote people and scholars, and they have to let these rich and noble people firmly control, if they go to various places to become officials, the world will not be the emperor, but the meritorious group.

Moreover, looking at the brothers of the little prince's senior brother who were waiting outside, they didn't seem to be waiting for the call of the little prince, but waiting for the signal of the female guards who were guarding outside.

Besides, I couldn't be more familiar with these female guards, nodding with this one, and discharging with that one, which made several female guards flushed.

"Hey, muddy boy, you look a little good, this is my home, you're too casual. The little prince scolded with a laugh angrily.

"What's polite about this, senior brothers are like brothers, your home is my family. "Besides, it doesn't mean anything else.

"Okay, even if you are reasonable, I said what are you doing with your eyebrows, you didn't want to send you in the first place. ”

The little prince is angry about this. Don't give it to him in vain, and now it's going to flirt with his personal guard, what's wrong with this kid.

Besides, what I like is this tune, he pretended to be a decent man and a gentleman in the Marquis's Mansion and pretended to be a little tired, and after he came out, he couldn't help but want to relax, and when he went to the English Duchess, he also laughed and played with those maids to his heart's content, making people cry and laugh.

"I want it too, but unfortunately I can't afford it, so I have to give it up. Besides, he laughed.

The little prince is wearing homely casual clothes today, and he only wears a free scarf on his head, he is like a jade tree in the wind, chic and dignified, holding a folding fan, and on the fan page is a landscape painting by Li Longmian, a painter of the Northern Song Dynasty, which looks genuine. The little prince is holding a fan, and he is really like a character who has come out of a painting.

Besides, I can only admit that in terms of skin alone, he is indeed inferior, and the Duchess of the Kingdom looks down on him, and it is not unreasonable.

"By the way, what about your little lover, why haven't you seen him in the past few days?" said the little prince with a smile.

He likes to mention the left antelope when he is fine, mainly because he wants to be disgusted and disgusting, and reminds him that he has a pigtail in his hand, so be careful that he complains to the pomegranate.

Besides, of course he knew his little tricks, and he didn't pay attention to them, he was also thinking about Zuo Ling, why did he suddenly return to Fengyang and leave in such a hurry, obviously something happened over there.

Xiao Nier asked Zuo Ling's housekeeper, and the housekeeper said that he didn't know the specific reason, did he really not know or refused to say?

"Do you know something?" Besides, he suddenly woke up and realized that he didn't know, but the little prince and senior brother may not know that Fengyang was their family's jurisdiction.

"I just know that she went back to Fengyang, and she was in a hurry. The little prince shook the folding fan, pretending to be a mystery.

"I know what it is. Besides, he snorted coldly.

"But there's so much more you don't know. The little prince shook the fan again, it was not hot at all, and the wind in the pavilion was much cooler than the wind from his fan, he was deliberately playing tricks.

"Well, tell me what you know. ”

"Why?" said the little prince with a smile.

"Why? I never offered any conditions when you asked me before. In addition, if I can't inquire from you, I can also go to Master Lian to inquire, Fengyang is not in your hands. Unless you really can't ask me in the future, don't blackmail me at this time. ”

Besides, he didn't buy it, if it was something else, he would let the little prince and senior brother hang his appetite, but this was something related to Zuo Ling, and he couldn't help but worry.

"Hun boy, do you dare to threaten me if you beg me? Okay, it's nothing to tell you, I just heard that there are a lot of fake medicines in Fengyang, which seem to have something to do with the medicines sold by Miss Zuo. By the way, Miss Zuo's amazing medicines were all developed by you, right?"

"It's nothing, aren't there a few fake drugs here in Nanjing?" and suddenly felt a little bad, but his face was very calm.

"How many cases of human life accidents, not a few, but dozens, hundreds of counterfeit medicines. There are a lot of things that I helped Miss Zuo settle from behind, and this is not to ask you for credit. ”

"Thank you very much!"

Besides, he was surprised in his heart, he really didn't know that there were so many fake medicines, he just gave the prescription to Zuo Ling and left it alone, he didn't ask anything about the production and sales, he had been taking care of her here these days, and he hadn't cared about the things on the market.

Thinking of this, the bad feeling in my heart suddenly magnified, if this is the case, why did Zuo Ling return to Fengyang in a hurry?

There have been so many fake drug incidents in Nanjing and Suzhou, she should be able to handle this kind of matter properly, so Fengyang will also get her experience and teachings at the same time, and she doesn't need to go back and deal with it personally.

"How long will it take for Fengyang's news to get here?"

"It's a day, but it's usually three to five days. What's the matter, you're in a hurry?" the little prince looked at him and laughed, he finally succeeded in whetting his appetite.

"Can you ask Fengyang to send news every day these days?"

"Well, there's nothing too important to do this. The little prince groaned.

Although there is no difficulty in doing this, it is too trivial to let the people in Fengyang quickly transmit Zuo Ling's news every day, and it is difficult to say whether it will be settled in the future. The main thing is that he doesn't feel the need for it.

"If you find it difficult, I'll go out and find the Salt Gang, and they'll help. As long as you're not ashamed. "Besides, I can't sit still.
