In the early morning of the 4th, my five-month-old daughter suddenly had a high fever, and I went to the hospital with my wife in the middle of the night. As a result, this book was not guaranteed in the evening, and it was actually interrupted, which is really what Ah Hu does not want to see.

Here, Ah Hu can only apologize to the readers.

It is not my wish to break off, but with children, there will be emergencies many times, and I ask for your understanding.

Ah Hu thanks! ——

The crown prince of the Song Empire in the Americas is here!

Just when Wu Sangui led 5,000 elites to break through, Zhao Hongyu, who was far away in the capital, also walked into the political center of the Ming Dynasty and walked into the ancient imperial city.

When Eunuch Xue found him at that time, Zhao Hongyu was also a little surprised.

Because he didn't expect that the summons would come so quickly.

In Zhao Hongyu's opinion, after he let Master Wang talk about that condition, judging from the procrastination of the Orientals, if the emperor of the Ming Dynasty wanted to summon him, how could it be delayed for a while.

I didn't think about it, so I asked Master Wang to talk about it in the morning, but in the evening he was summoned to the meeting.

Zhao Hongyu was surprised by the speed of the Ming Dynasty this time, but he also deduced from this point that the Ming Dynasty is really short of money now.

Don't think about it, the reason why the reaction is so fast this time must be for the sake of five million taels of silver.

Otherwise, who would care about someone like him who didn't know where he came from.

said that he was a descendant of the Zhao and Song dynasties, but the Ming Dynasty would not take you seriously at all.

Now it is the Zhu Ming Dynasty that rules the Central Plains.

Along the way, Eunuch Xue explained to Zhao Hongyu some rules and taboos for meeting the emperor, and looked at Zhao Hongyu, the young crown prince, from time to time.

To be honest, Eunuch Xue didn't know where Dao America was, and he hadn't even heard of it.

But he can't be blamed for this, in terms of the knowledge of people in this era. It's not surprising at all that I don't know about the American continent.

In the seventeenth century, the Orientals were far less explored than the Europeans.

couldn't help but look at Eunuch Xue beside him, and Zhao Hongyu didn't think so at all. And Zhao Hongyu also knew that in this era, especially the Ming Dynasty in the East, he could not offend the eunuchs.

After all, sometimes eunuchs can't do good things, but they can do bad things.

If you want to achieve the goal of the plan on the side of the Ming Dynasty, then there can be no accidents and changes.

Therefore, for people like Eunuch Xue, it is better not to offend Zhao Hongyu if he can not offend.

Besides. These guys aren't hard to deal with, either.

Speak politely, and give enough money.

Then it's all right, isn't it?

There is actually nothing difficult to do this.

There is no shortage of silver Zhao Hongyu, and it is more than enough to send such a eunuch.

If you want to talk about equal intersection, Zhao Hongyu can also do it.

As a person from modern times, how could Zhao Hongyu not be able to do this. It is difficult for the hierarchical Ming Dynasty people to talk about equality and intersecting, after all, the environment and atmosphere they live in are different from those of modern times.

Moreover, some of the concepts accepted by the people of this era do not exist as equality at all.

So, ah, it's like a group of eunuchs. It's quite difficult to get an equal look from people.

"Brother Xue, I've been away from the Central Plains for a long time, and I don't understand some rules very well. When the time comes, big brother, you can mention more. ”

Eunuch Xue is in his forties again, so it is not wrong for Zhao Hongyu to call him big brother.

Zhao Hongyu shouted very naturally, and he couldn't see hypocrisy at all, which moved Eunuch Xue's heart for a while.

Honestly. The eunuch is not a complete man.

Since they were missing that piece, their psychology has become more or less distorted.

This is also for the sake of the prisoners, and it doesn't seem so normal.

In fact. They are just gaining a kind of recognition from others in another way.

It's just that such ways and means seem a bit alternative or excessive.

In this era, who can understand their inner world better than Zhao Hongyu.

Yes, there will be no more.

Zhao Hongyu's previous world was about equal intersection.

And he has not been in this era for long, only more than three years.

The imprint of modern people has not been erased on Zhao Hongyu's body, which means that he has not been assimilated by this era.

Everything is so natural, and it naturally moves Eunuch Xue, who has insight into people's hearts.

This big brother's call made his heart warm.

How many years?

Eunuch Xue beat the young man and entered the palace, and he is not a normal person anymore.

Especially in a place like Ouchi, the Imperial Palace.

Although his status is slowly improving, he also understands very well that the reason why those courtiers are so polite when they see him in the past is just because he is a close confidant of the emperor.

If one day he falls from power, then these courtiers will not pinch him.

But today, for this crown prince from the American continent, Eunuch Xue felt a sense of cordiality.

Maybe it's because of the relationship between the 'big brother', or maybe it's because of Zhao Hongyu's unpretentiousness.

It's been so many years, and it's hard to hear the feelings and words that come naturally like this in the palace.

"The villain is terrified, he can't afford to be called His Royal Highness the Prince."

Although he was very moved in his heart, Eunuch Xue still shirked it.

Zhao Hongyu shook his head, reached out and grabbed Eunuch Xue's arm and said to him with a smile: "Brother, what he said is wrong, everyone is equal in our Americas, my brother is also a human being, and I am also a human being. And my brother is older than me, so it's normal to call my brother. Even when ordinary people meet outside, aren't they all like this? ”

The people are the people, but you are the crown prince of a country, and I am just a eunuch.

But. looked at Zhao Hongyu's smiling face and listened to his sincere words.

What else could Eunuch Xue say?

"This little meaning, give my brother a cup of tea when he is free."

Zhao Hongyu stuffed a silver ticket without a trace, and the face value of the silver ticket said 10,000 taels of silver.

Ooh!

That's a lot of money!

Eunuch Xue was really shocked.

It is said that it is not the first time that he has received money from Eunuch Xue, after all, he is the person who follows the emperor. Therefore, those ministers who were summoned by the emperor were often led by him.

In addition to chatting along the way, it is a good thing.

And many times when he went out of the palace to read out his insistence or something, it was also done by Eunuch Xue.

The benefits are even softer.

However, Eunuch Xue has not seen a person who has made a move, that is, 10,000 taels of silver.

In normal times. The ministers gave him the advantage, that is, a hundred taels or so.

So much is the reading of the will.

Unless those ministers have something important to do, and want to know some of the emperor's feelings from him, they will give more news about a certain aspect of life.

But it did not exceed five hundred taels of silver.

But it's not surprising to think about it.

Who made these ministers always pretend to be clean with their sleeves and cry poverty to others everywhere?

Although they are actually fat in private, and their families are basically rich people with fertile land, they are ministers above the court after all, and they always have to pretend to be poor to take care of their image.

For these, Eunuch Xue is also very clear.

But he was a eunuch. Although he is a person close to the emperor, he is more discerning.

He often thinks that he is now in a high position.

But if he doesn't keep it, he will be down that day.

Therefore, he basically does not offend people.

Therefore, ah. Those men will not give him too little money, and you will ask for it for me.

It's just that I will complain about their stinginess in my heart.

Judging from Eunuch Xue's character, he is still quite a good person.

If this were placed in another time and space, if you gave the eunuchs around the emperor such a little silver. Can people ask for it?

Joke, isn't it no different from the one who asks for food?

Of course, in fact, a hundred taels of silver is not a lot.

Just think of the purchasing power of silver in this era. You will be able to know the value of this hundred taels.

This is simply not true that this amount of silver cannot be measured in absolute terms with modern banknotes.

You have to look at how many people can be fed and how many things can be bought for one or two taels of silver in this era.

Simply converting it into cash for purchasing power is simply outrageously wrong.

It was precisely because of this that Zhao Hongyu's 10,000 taels of silver shocked Eunuch Xue.

"How can this make these silver villains absolutely unwanted."

Unexpectedly, 10,000 taels of silver frightened Eunuch Xue when it arrived.

It is said that he should not be a person who has never seen a lot of money, so what is a mere 10,000 taels of silver?

Eunuch Xue excused himself, of course Zhao Hongyu couldn't really take it back.

Give the money that has been taken back, what is the matter?

If Zhao Hongyu does this, then he will not be able to be a man.

Besides, 10,000 taels of silver is a fart for him.

Industrial silver only.

"Brother, don't be polite to me, you will have to bother you in the future. This time we returned to our ancestral land from the distant Americas, where we knew no one, and we needed someone to help us in a huge court......"

Zhao Hongyu said to Eunuch Xue with confidence.

When Eunuch Xue heard this, this is also human nature.

These descendants of Zhao and Song have been living abroad since the country broke down and their families died, and now they are coming back.

Chizuru Hattori and Baron Roderni followed behind Zhao Hongyu, while Master Wang followed him with his head bowed.

While Zhao Hongyu and Eunuch Xue were talking, they came to the outside of the Qinzheng Palace.

Along the way, it may be because of the relationship of 'brother', or because of the relationship of 10,000 taels of silver, Zhao Hongyu and Eunuch Xue have become a lot closer.

Eunuch Xue saw that Zhao Hongyu was quite young, and he was afraid that he would talk nonsense, so he urgently explained a few precautions.

At the same time, he also quietly told him that he should be careful of the ministers in the court in the future, because he has already revealed his wealth.

Zhao Hongyu, who heard this, was stunned for a moment, but then after listening to Eunuch Xue's explanation, he understood.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, go in, the emperor is waiting for you inside. After entering, there will be no mistake in answering carefully, and don't go around after leaving the palace, so as to find opportunities for those ministers who are greedy for money. ”

Standing at the door of the Qinzheng Palace, Eunuch Xue said to Zhao Hongyu with a serious face. (To be continued......)
