Chapter 43: Attitude
Zhu Houzhao pouted, what do you mean by doing what I think, isn't this your own idea, Dad?
But at this time, Zhu Houzhao still didn't plan to argue with his father, there was nothing to say about this matter, and after chatting for a while, Zhu Houzhao left the Qianqing Palace and headed towards his Xianyang Palace. As soon as he returned to Xianyang Palace, the people below came to tell him, and the Marquis of Shouning came.
Zhu Houzhao didn't expect his uncle to come, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile: "I'm in a hurry!" ”
Speaking of which, a few days ago, Zhu Houzhao promised Empress Zhang to take care of Zhang Heling's affairs, but Zhu Houzhao was too busy these days. Whether it is following the tour of Beijing, or participating in the affairs of the salt administration, or even the Xiyuan side, it takes energy and time, and Zhu Houzhao put Zhang Heling's matter aside.
Originally, Zhu Houzhao planned to wait until the East Factory found out something, and then he was looking for Zhang Heling.
But now it's better to go, he didn't go to him, but he came to the door by himself, Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but be happy. After thinking about it, Zhu Houzhao said to Zhang Yong, who was serving him: "Let him come in!" ”
It didn't take long for Zhang Heling to walk in from outside, with a bright smile on his face, and after seeing Zhu Houzhao, Zhang Heling hurriedly saluted: "See His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”
"Don't be so polite in private, uncle, don't be polite! Sit down and say. Saying that, Zhu Houzhao said to Zhang Yong: "Look at the tea!" ”
Zhang Heling sat down after standing up, and after thanking Zhang Yong, who served him tea, Zhang Heling said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the ministers are here today for the sake of salt. ”
"Salt lead? Salt-free class, right? Zhu Houzhao nodded and said with a smile: "Which salt merchant is it?" Whoever has the last name, tell me. ”
Although Zhu Houzhao had a smile on his face and a very peaceful tone, this sentence startled Zhang Heling, and he beat a drum in his heart, what is this? What's going on? I don't know why, but Zhang Heling was shocked, and a cool breath rushed from his heel to Tianling Gai, and he subconsciously shivered.
"Since you think the salt merchants are suffering, it doesn't matter, we have a good place in Daming, just think of a way." Zhu Houzhao continued to smile and said: "Northwest Frontier, Yunnan Mining, Liaodong Horse Grazing, where is it not good?" There's no need to do salt business, it's really not good, it's all over the house, and life must be very good. ”
Looking at Zhang Heling, Zhu Houzhao sighed and took a sip of tea: "It's really not good, and the Yi three clans are okay." ”
This sounds like a joke, but it came out of Zhu Houzhao's mouth, so it's not a joke.
Zhu Houzhao has not yet ascended the throne, if Zhu Houzhao ascends the throne, anyone who asks for help from his relatives will be sent to prison and confiscated to the army, and see who still asks you to do things. I pinched these things for him from the root, and I won't be able to kill you. Originally, Zhu Houzhao was not so angry, and there was no need to say these words to Zhang Heling.
But this guy is a thief, and he still wants to convince himself, didn't he say it clearly last time? Don't understand the meaning?
Eight words can describe his thoughts and behaviors, that is, he is fearless and unscrupulous, which is why Zhu Houzhao is so angry.
You have to know ordinary relatives, who dares to run away to take advantage of their brother-in-law's house? But these relatives are unscrupulous, and in Zhu Houzhao's opinion, this is all for them to get used to. Use the three outlines and five constants to trap the emperor, so that the emperor can't do whatever he wants, but Zhu Houzhao has Zhu Houzhao's method.
For example, this time, if Zhu Houzhao really killed the salt merchant's family, no one would dare to do anything with Xun Qi in the future.
"What does Shou Ninghou think is good? You pick it for you, if they feel unconvinced, then let Dongchang and Jinyiwei check, anyway, Dongchang and Jinyiwei have been idle for so long. Zhu Houzhao's tone remained unchanged, and he still looked at Zhang Heling with a smile: "What do you think?" ”
Zhang Heling was really scared this time, and she was also bitter in her heart, what is this called!
Dongchang Jinyiwei is all screaming, if Zhu Houzhao is really willing to use them, this time he will definitely be ruthless, just a salt merchant, how can they see it in their eyes, in order to appease His Royal Highness the Prince, then what do you want to give something? Zhang Heling couldn't help but feel resentful in his heart, why did he come at me?
Zhu Houzhao didn't expect Zhang Heling to understand, but Zhu Houzhao was annoyed that Zhang Heling didn't know how to advance or retreat. Last time, I said no, but I said it so clearly, and this time I actually found it, but I didn't take my words into account.
"Okay, since Shouning Hou is not chosen, it's okay, I'll help Shouning Hou choose, just tell me the name of this beggar salt merchant." After Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Heling.
"The minister knows that he is wrong!" Zhang Heling knelt directly on the ground, and then said loudly: "When the minister goes back, he will drive out the salt merchant, and the minister will drive him out when he goes back." ”
Zhu Houzhao hurriedly stood up, stretched out his hand to help Zhang Heling up, and then said with pity: "What is this, it can't be like this, it can't be like this, don't worry, I don't mean to blame, I just want to help do something, since Shou Ninghou doesn't like it, then forget it, why bother?" ”
"Come on, send Shou Ninghou back!" Zhu Houzhao waved his hand to Zhang Yong as he spoke, signaling to see off the guests.
When Zhang Heling left, Zhu Houzhao slammed the cup out, making a crisp sound and shattering to the ground.
Turning around and walking into the house, Zhu Houzhao breathed a sigh of relief, and walked back leisurely with his hands behind his back, he was going to practice martial arts, and he was obsessed with the big sword these days. As for getting angry and smashing the cup, Zhu Houzhao just did it for others to see. The joys, sorrows, and sorrows of the big people are really not their joys, sorrows, and sorrows, but only represent their views and attitudes on certain things.
Zhu Houzhao believed that this time the matter would soon spread out, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dropped the cup and was angry with Shou Ning.
It may take some time for the news to spread outside the palace, but it doesn't take much time to spread in the palace, and what happened in Xianyang Palace was transmitted to Kunning Palace in minutes.
Zhu Youzhu and Empress Zhang drank tea, listening to the report of the eunuch He Neng, from beginning to end, Zhu Youzhu had a smile on his face, and when He Neng finished speaking, he put the teacup in his hand on the table with a smile. Glancing at Empress Zhang, Zhu Youzhu smiled and said, "My son is really angry this time!" ”
"You're still laughing!" Empress Zhang said coquettishly: "What should I do about this? The emperor won't really annoy the eldest brother, right? ”
"He's too indisputable this time, didn't he say it all last time? The emperor also promised to help him make a living, why do you have to do this? Still going this time? Is money lost? Zhu Youzhu also said with some annoyance.
