Volume 2 Nanyang Chapter 108 The Wu family leaves Beijing
Chapter 107: The Wu family leaves Beijing
"What, Huang'er is sick." Wu looked at the letter in his hand, and almost took the case.
The mother of the child is worried. After Zhu Houhuang left, Wu was worried day and night, and couldn't sleep all night, she also placed people around Zhu Houhuang, it was none other than Yunmo. Yunmo didn't dare to hide the Wu family in the slightest. This unbelief was sent, and when Wu saw that Zhu Houhuang was sick and almost died, his heart hung up, and he didn't know where to put it, where she was still sitting, walking back and forth. Finally, he said, "No, I can't be in Beijing anymore." I'm going to Dongyong too. β
But Wu didn't just want to go.
Wu immediately went to find the empress and the Empress Dowager Zhang.
Queen Xia is actually very beautiful, but she is too dignified. Every move is in line with etiquette. When you meet someone like Zhengde, it is naturally incompatible with ice and fire. She's not a bad person, though.
In front of the two of them, Wu said this, and as soon as he said it, he left tears in his eyes and said: "My son, I know that he has been a deviant since he was a child. There are no three or five subordinates around our son, but he just doesn't want it, our family is still there, reading and writing, literacy is supposed to, but deeper research is not necessary, no one wants you to be a Confucian, my kid is not, he reads fast, asks tricky questions, and drives away one teacher after another. If you specialize in this, it's fine. But he changed it again, and it was always three or five months of thinking about what to learn, and he changed it immediately. I can't grow any interest, I'm never at ease, I don't want to go to Shandong Mountain, I have to go to Dongyong. As soon as I inquired, this Dongyong is just a desert island. If he didn't go, he met the plague and almost died. β
As Wu spoke, tears fell, and he sobbed and said, "I'm just this one son, if he goes, how will I live." β
Wu's crying resonated with Empress Dowager Zhang and Empress Xia, especially Empress Xia, because he had no children, even if he had the position of noble queen, but he did not have a son, and he didn't know what would happen in the future, but she envied Wu, anyway, Wu's sons have grown up now.
Empress Dowager Zhang said: "Okay, okay." Wu, do you want to beg for something to mourn the family, to seal King Yong to Shandong? Don't think about it, the emperor's son of the mourning family will not listen to the mourning family. β
Wu said: "The concubine doesn't dare, but the concubine doesn't want to be in the capital anymore, she wants to go to Dongyong, and she asks the queen mother for grace." β
"Go ahead." What else can Empress Dowager Zhang say, the Wu family would have left. Only a year later. This is the time set by Zhu Houhuang, and Zhu Houhuang feels that he can already settle in Dongyong in a year, so he will take over the Wu family.
Wu thanked Empress Dowager Zhang, talked for a while, and left the palace.
Wu's departure from Beijing means that King Yong's mansion in Beijing will also be recycled, and King Yong's mansion will have no foundation in Beijing. This handover of the palace, moving the ceremony and other things are a lot of troublesome things. For a while, I couldn't leave.
Although Wu couldn't leave, the news that Wu was going to Dongyong in advance came to Zhu Houhuang's hands with Wu's letter.
"What? The queen mother should pass in advance? Zhu Houhuang asked.
"Yes," Yunmo took the letter and handed it to Zhu Houhuang and said, "If you don't believe it, Your Highness, please take a look." β
Zhu Houhuang has been busy for a while. Tang Yin fell ill. Zhu Houhuang took over the big man in an all-round way, he didn't do anything else, and now he has silver and grain in his hands. There is no hurry for a while, and there are only tens of thousands of people, and the land is very limited. Zhu Houhuang simply gave up on reclaiming the emperor, and instead focused all his energy on the building, completing the work he did not complete, and building a rammed earth city here in Dayuan. Of course, there are also houses in various places.
Zhu Houhuang knows that summer is a typhoon-prone period, and Dongyong's current situation can't withstand a typhoon.
I never thought that my mother would come over at this time. Zhu Houhuang snatched the letter and opened it, only to see that Wu scolded Yunmo in the letter. made Zhu Houhuang look a little embarrassed. Because this is a habit since childhood, if Zhu Houhuang makes any mistakes, if he doesn't admit it, the Wu family will punish the people around him, and he scolded Yunmo in the letter, which was scolded to Zhu Houhuang.
"Sister Yunmo, I'm sorry." ζ±ει» says:
"Your Highness said that." Yunmo's eyes were red, and he said: "Yunmo doesn't deserve the name of my sister, I just ask Your Highness to take care of your body in the future, and don't let Niangniang have the opportunity to scold the slave maid, and the slave and maid will be thankful." β
Zhu Houhuang knew that he was sick this time, and Yunmo was under a lot of pressure, so he grabbed Yunmo's hand and said, "Not in the future." β
Yunmo's face turned red and he withdrew his hand. Don't dare to stay here. "Phew." He turned around and left.
After Yunmo left, Zhu Houhuang was a little worried again, he had to adjust his plan and build a beautiful mansion first. Zhu Houhuang himself could live in a simple house, but he didn't dare to let his mother Wu live in such a house. Then he called Xu Dong over and said: "The orphaned queen mother is coming, you take a few boats north to Tianjin to pick her up, you must bring the queen mother over safely, and let Yunmo pick a few old people in the house to go over with you later." Go ahead. β
"Yes." Xu Dong was overjoyed. Xu Dong knew that if this errand could fall into his hands, it meant that he had become a member of King Yong's henchmen. He was happy, of course, but he was not only happy about this, but also about another point.
Xu Dong hurriedly integrated the men and horses and set off overnight with five boats. He did not go out of Tianjin directly, but went north along the coastline and went to Ningbo to meet Mr. Xu first.
Old man Xu has left Hangzhou since Xu Dong followed King Yong. Without him, the news of what Xu Dong did in Penghu spread. These maritime merchants are all masters, and King Yong killed a group of people happily, I don't know how many people hated King Yong. The Xu family was also implicated. As soon as Xu Dong returned to Xu's house, Old Man Xu snorted coldly and said, "Second brother, do you have anything to tell me?" β
Xu Dong said: "Yes, you have taught me to trade since I was a child. Who is the most successful businessman? β
Old Man Xu snorted coldly and said, "Why do you still want to learn from Lu Buwei?" β
LΓΌ Buwei lived as a strange commodity and ascended to the position of Xiangguo, becoming the most successful merchant in ancient China. As soon as Old Man Xu heard it, he knew what Xu Dong wanted to do.
"Yes." Xu Dong said: "King Yong is a strange commodity to live in. Immediately, Xu Dong told King Yong's behavior one by one, and finally concluded: "King Yong's behavior is like this, even if there is only one island in Dongyong in the future, it will not lose his wealth." As long as my Xu family follows early, why don't you become a founding hero? β
Old Man Xu fell into deep thought for a while, in fact, what Xu Dong said, Old Man Xu didn't know how many times he had thought about it, no less than Xu Dong had thought about it, and even more than Xu Dong had thought about it.
Old Man Xu sighed and said, "Although I haven't seen King Yong, but listening to what you say, this King Yong is also a person who can get things done." But Dongyong is still too young, and what really determines the survival of Dongyong is not in Dongyong, but in Beijing. It's a bit too sloppy. β
Xu Dong said: "There is one thing that I shouldn't have said, so I can't spread it. Xu Dong saw that Old Man Xu agreed to come down, so he told Old Man Xu about the Nanyang route. When Old Man Xu heard this, he could earn as much as 100,000 taels of silver in one trip, and he felt breathless for a moment.
With the keen feeling of a businessman, with this source of wealth, Dongyong's future is far underestimated. He immediately made a decision, pressed the entire Xu family up, and said: "Say, what is the matter with your coming back this time, I know that with your character, if you don't have something for the family to do, you won't come back." β
"So, my father agreed." Xu Dong said.
"My old man gambled." Old Man Xu said.
Xu Dong said: "Father, now there is a good opportunity to bet, the Queen Mother Yong is going to Dongyong from the north, and Queen Yong has not yet been selected." β
