On the second day of the first month, in the southeast of Dali, it is advisable to sacrifice to friends.

As soon as Guocheng woke up from his dream, Wang An came to visit, grinded hard and asked him to go to the East Palace.

Guocheng thought helplessly, he came early in the morning on the second day of the new year to ask for bribes, this prince is really unprecedented, and there is no one to come. Forget it, it's just a matter of spending a few more bottles of perfume, so he asked Wang Chengen to pack a large bag of gifts and go in the direction of Ciqing Palace.

As soon as he arrived at the gate of Ciqing Palace, Li Jinzhong was competing with a little eunuch. It was probably because the little eunuch didn't do something well and was scolded so much that he was bloody. This little eunuch is also quite measured, and he dares to cross his waist and scold Li Jinzhong.

Guocheng couldn't help but mourn in silence for this little eunuch in his heart, are you easy to provoke Li Jinzhong. The more Li Jinzhong said, the more angry he became, he slapped him, the little eunuch flashed, Li Jinzhong's foothold was unstable, and he took a few steps back and crashed into Guocheng. Guocheng stretched out his hand to help Li Jinzhong, and was about to persuade a few words, when he suddenly saw an extra paper ball in his hand. Li Jinzhong pushed Guocheng away, grabbed the little eunuch's ear and went into the room.

Guocheng understood, and while Wang An was not paying attention, he unfolded the note and looked at it, and a few words were scribbled on it: The prince seized the perfume. Guocheng didn't understand what it meant at first, why did the prince snatch the perfume, just go to the children's paradise to get it. Before and after the children's paradise, fifty or sixty bottles of perfume were given to the prince, but I didn't hear him say that it was not enough. No, Li Jinzhong and the little eunuch took the risk of making a play to send him a letter, it must be a big deal, and it is not worth it to have just a few dozen bottles of perfume. Could it be that the prince wants to take away the perfume workshop? There is this possibility, at the reunion banquet, Wanli mentioned that the children's paradise made a lot of money, and the prince's eyes showed greed.

Guocheng looked at it and said to Wang An: "It's a strict thing to see the prince, I'll change my clothes and come back." ”

Wang An moved his body, blocked the palace gate, and said with a smile: "It's all here, how troublesome it is to go back." Go for it, the prince won't blame you. ”

Guocheng has no intention of retreating at all, since the prince wants to do something to him, if he doesn't go to the prince's East Palace, can he escape? His character is to face difficulties, and he has never thought about resting with people, this is true for Ning Yuanbo, this is true for Shuntianfu Yin, such as Peng Chengbo, this time for the prince, Guocheng is naturally the same. Of course, this is also because Guocheng knows that the crown prince Zhu Changluo is a short-lived emperor, who reigned for only one month, the most in the history of the Ming Dynasty.

Guocheng turned back to see if the guards had brought his clothes. After all, the guards were loyal to their duties, knowing that Guocheng had a problem with blatantly changing clothes, one holding a bullfighting suit and the other holding a flying fish suit. The bullfighting suit was appointed by Emperor Wanli as a reward from the palace governor Shi Sidian, and it was useless to bargain with the prince, so it was better to wear a flying fish suit. Wearing a flying fish suit means that he is a brocade guard, and he is the emperor's pro-army, and the prince can't move him lightly.

Guocheng took off his outer robe, and the guards helped him put on the flying fish suit, put on his hat, and tied the gold belt, and a miniature version of the brocade guard appeared in front of everyone.

Wang An said: "Why is the prince dressed like this, the prince is not summoned for business today, he is purely for personal inquiries, why should he dress so formally?" ”

Guocheng said: "The prince is the foundation of the country, every word and deed is a model in the world, since there is something to ask, Weichen must be conscientious, how dare he be careless." ”

While speaking, the two had already entered the main hall.

Guocheng knelt down to greet the prince and Li Xuan of the West Palace, the prince probably wanted to give him a dismount, but he didn't say anything for a long time, Aiqing was flat.

How could Guocheng be willing to suffer this loss, estimating that the time was almost up, so he stood up.

Wang An shouted: "Bold, the prince didn't tell you to be flat, you actually dared to stand up, did you take the prince in your eyes." ”

Guocheng was louder than him: "Bold minion, I am the military attache of the Ming Dynasty, the emperor's pro-army, when will it be your turn to be in charge." ”

Wang An's words were stopped, and he suddenly remembered that this thing was completely a reckless person, and there was no way to make a move, Ning Yuanbo, Shuntianfu Yin, and Peng Chengbo all asked this guy to punch and kill him.

Guocheng said again: "When I asked the prince to say goodbye just now, I silently calculated the time in my heart, which was slightly shorter than the time to greet the emperor. Do I think it's bad, it turns out that the time for the prince to see the prince must be longer than the time to give the emperor, if so, I will kneel again. ”

When the prince saw that Guocheng had moved Wanli out, how dare he punish him again, so he scolded Wang Andao: "Bastard, I saw Guocheng as a talent, and I was so happy that I forgot to tell him to be flat." Not only did you not call him up, but you deliberately made it difficult, did you think that I gave too much monthly money, and if you do this, you will deduct your monthly money. ”

Wang Anxin said: "Where have you given me any monthly money, and the monthly money is all given by the palace." It's up to you to give it, I've already drunk the northwest wind. ”

After the prince scolded Wang An, his face turned blank and asked, "Guocheng, are you guilty?" ”

Guocheng said: "I don't know where the sin comes from? ”

The prince said: "You lured the prince to become a lowly businessman, and you dare to say that you are not guilty? ”

Guocheng said: "The prince has not become a businessman. ”

The prince said: "Then let me ask you, is the perfume produced by Children's Park?" ”

Guocheng was silent, because he heard that the crown prince did not want to pursue the matter of the emperor and grandson becoming a businessman, and it was useless to argue, so let's listen to what he said first.

Seeing that Guocheng didn't answer, the prince thought that he was a thief, and then asked, "Is the perfume sold?" ”

Guocheng was still silent.

The prince asked greedily: "I heard that it is not cheap, 6 taels of silver for a bottle, and a bottle will earn 6 taels, which is a good deal." A few days ago, Wang An stared at the door of the imperial store for an hour, and 45 people went in to buy perfume. In this hour, you have received 27o taels of silver. ”

Guocheng's current prince is really ridiculous, you should be perfume is air, no cost? I treat all the income as profit, and I don't have the consciousness to re-put it into production at all, and I pull it down after selling out. Guocheng decided to go out and keep the perfume workshop, not only for the promise of Zhu Youzhen, but also for the women of Daming to use perfume, but I don't know if Daming has a women's federation, and whether he will give himself a plaque of a friend of women.

The prince said: "In this way, if you give me the perfume workshop, I will not hold you responsible for bringing the emperor and grandson." Don't worry, I won't treat you badly, I will give you 1oo taels of silver every month as the cost of transferring the perfume workshop, what do you think? ”

The prince put on a face that gave you a great benefit, and people wanted to punch him hard in the fat face. Of course, Guocheng will not give him a punch, although he gives the impression that he is the most reckless person in the world, but in fact, he is just using this appearance to disguise himself. What can be done and what cannot be done, his heart is like a mirror. The prince is a king, he is a minister, and if he commits the following crimes, even if Wanli is willing to spare him, will the officials let him go?

Guocheng said: "I don't know if the prince knows the formula of the perfume?" ”

The prince said in his heart: "If you want to know what the formula is looking for you for, it has already been produced at full capacity." Many people have been sent to find out your secrets, but unfortunately you keep the perfume workshop like an iron bucket, and you can't see anything. What's the matter, I want to take the initiative to hand it over today? Okay, I only wanted to give you a month's money, but since you took the initiative to confess, then give you a 2-month transfer fee. ”

Guocheng said: "The perfume is made of the essence of a hundred flowers, with the sweat of boys and girls under the age of 12, refined with the ancient recipe of Huatuo, and the trouble of the process is needless to say." The key is that every time you make a bottle of perfume, you have to use up the cost of 4 taels and 2 yuan of silver. Coupled with glass bottles and small wooden boxes, the cost of a bottle of perfume is about 5 taels. ”

The prince was a little disappointed, and thought that he could get all 6 taels of silver, but he didn't expect to get only 1 tael of silver, but no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also meat, thinking of the hot scene in the perfume store, the prince's heart is hot again: "Then how much money can you make selling perfume a month?" ”

Guocheng said: "It's only 6ooo two silver." However, does the prince know whose property is the children's park? ”

The prince said, "Isn't it yours?" ”

Guocheng said: "The prince has won the award, thinking that Guocheng is just a 7-year-old orphan, how did he come to such a big family." Long Live Lord gave Wechen 7ooo two pieces of silver, a big mansion and countless manpower to build a children's paradise, Wechen is just a little butler and shield for Long Live Lord. Of the 6ooo taels of silver, 5ooo taels should be released to the inner treasury, and the remaining 1ooo taels not only had to pay the craftsmen's wages and the daily expenses of the children's playground. I don't know if the prince wants the 5ooo taels of silver that went to the inner library, or the remaining 1ooo taels? ”

The prince was dumbfounded: "This ...... This ......"

Wang An hurriedly came to play the round: "The prince is just afraid that the prince will lead His Royal Highness the emperor and grandson astray, since it is the meaning of the long live lord, the prince is not afraid that the prince will do something wrong." Haha, you do things, the prince can rest assured. ”

Back to the children's paradise, Guocheng told Zhu Youzhen about what happened in the Prince's Mansion today, and of course praised Li Jinzhong vigorously.

Zhu Youzhen's biggest mistake in governing was to kill the loyal dogleg of the Ming royal family, the eunuch party, and reuse the Donglin party, which was bright and correct on the surface but male thieves and prostitutes on the inside. Some people say that the Donglin Party is a hypocrite, but in fact, they are far from reaching that kind of cultivation. More than ten years later, Nanming Fu Ma Shiying, the word Yaocao, was skinned and executed by the Qing army, filled with weeds, made a human skin doll, and died so heroically, the Donglin Party was still in the mood to ridicule: "Ma Yaocao is born and Huaiyao dies." "This is really out of the realm of hypocrites who are dead and shameless, and has reached the height of being shameless. And the eunuch party is much better, at least the eunuch party never advertises itself as a good person, but their point of origin is for the long-term peace and stability of the Ming Dynasty, because of the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, they can be promoted to official wealth.

Guocheng was afraid that Zhu Youzhen would have a bad impression of Wei Zhongxian and affect the plan to revive the Ming Dynasty in the future, so he always said good things for him. Zhu Youzhen nodded: "Li Jinzhong can report the news for us, and he is not a good person." However, if Daddy wants to take away the perfume workshop, it's okay to take it, it's a family anyway. ”

Guocheng said: "Your father is the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and the whole world is his." And you will only be a little king in the future, if you don't make some money now, you will be pitiful for the queen of Fan. Besides, you're a 6-year-old child, and there's no shame in an adult snatching a child's things! ”

Zhu Youzhen's face turned red all of a sudden, who called this shameless prince his father?

Although Guocheng successfully kept the perfume workshop, he also completely offended the prince, and he had to beware of cold arrows from the prince's mansion.
