Not long ago, Zhu Changan faced several problems at the same time!

The first problem, the emperor wants to celebrate the birthday of the queen mother, and wants to have a good time and do something to make the old lady happy! But the emperor didn't know whether he was lazy to bother with his brains, or if he intended to test the princes, so he ordered each prince to come up with an idea to celebrate his birthday! Whoever has a good idea and is finally adopted, the emperor will reward him with a favor!

The princes are gearing up and eager to perform! In addition to being rewarded, this is definitely a plus on the road to succession! Zhu Si is the same! He's so short of a chance! He's hell-bent on seizing this opportunity!

The second problem, as soon as the topic of birthday celebration opened, everyone in the palace was brainstormed by the birthday gift! The queen and concubines are all from big families, so they are naturally not in a hurry. But Concubine Zhao couldn't sleep! For her, how not to lose face and stand out, how to spend less money and add a boost to her son, these are all big problems! Concubine Zhao was worried, and the task of preparing the birthday gift was naturally handed over to her son!

The third big difficulty, the more people Zhu Changan has, the more silver he will lack! He has a few deals in his hands, but not enough to maintain his growing circle of expenses, and not enough to recruit more staff and men! Overcoming obstacles, he spends silver on every step he takes, where can he get it? He's worried!

As a result, Zhu Changan and his staff have a perfect design, which can not only perfectly solve the immediate problem, but also be enough to maintain a long-term line!

He was completely prepared. In the imperial study, when the brothers put forward the idea of congratulating the birthday and suggesting how to hold a feast for the queen mother, how to build a temple and a Buddha, and how to build a palace and a garden, he proposed to go south on a cruise ship!

The brothers ridiculed him, insinuating that he did not understand the government, which was to ruin the reputation of their father, who worked hard for the country.

But he mustered up the courage to be neither humble nor arrogant, and he would have rehearsed the words hundreds of times, and he was full of confidence to fight for reason!

He clarified the feasibility of going south, analyzed the peaceful and prosperous era of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and also quoted scriptures, from filial piety to etiquette, he did his homework, from climate to humanities, and he took out the current situation of the imperial court - the economic and cultural conditions of the two rivers and analyzed them one by one.

The amount of taxes and grain in the two rivers accounted for one-third of the Great Zhou, and the salt and silver accounted for half of the total number of the Great Zhou...... All this has greatly aroused the emperor's interest!

He observed the words and colors, and the emperor was moved, and he put it out, how the queen mother likes Wu culture, Kun dialect, and those hazy mountains and rivers, flowers and plants...... The emperor went south, not for pleasure, but for filial piety, which should be praised for eternity, not only will not ruin the reputation, but will spread the emperor's character to the north and south of the river!

And the most important point, Zhu Si made a comparison with the data of previous years:

The cost of holding a banquet in Beijing to celebrate his birthday is all from the imperial court, and it is conservatively estimated that at least hundreds of thousands of taels of snowflake silver are needed.

But if you go all the way south...... All the expenses are borne by the rich local government, and there are countless gentry rushing to settle the bill, and the imperial court not only does not need to spend a penny, but also can make a lot of money from finance and prestige while giving the mighty imperial power!

Zhu Si had even planned the route to the south, and the emperor looked at the road map that the fourth child put in front of him, and asked a few words casually, but he couldn't stump his son!

It's rare, Zhu Si got a few words of praise from the emperor!

At this time, the prince was the first to stand on Zhu Si's side and agreed.

Zhu Si's heart was relieved, everything was as Ni Lao expected! The emperor and the queen mother will go to Jiangnan, and the prince will most likely have the opportunity to supervise the country! It's like a big pie falling from the sky! Therefore, the shrewd prince had his own decision for the first time!

With the help of the crown prince, most of the opposition suddenly disappeared.

Although the emperor did not make a decision directly, he had already nodded, and then ordered Zhu Si to go south first and follow the planned route to make a point......

Zhu Chang'an knew in his heart that in order to help her son Bo, the opportunity to supervise the country, the queen would definitely operate in Beijing and make every effort to promote this matter! Going south is almost a foregone conclusion!

Zhu Changan was overjoyed, this was almost the first time that his father had entrusted him with a heavy responsibility!

Go south first, he can be familiar first, dot first, lay out first, envelop first, plan first, and buy first...... With the imperial order, there are so many things to do! There are a lot of benefits to be gained!

If you're lucky, your purse will be bulging! Even if he can't, he can still make a name for himself while taking a head start! As long as he does a good job and plans enough, he will be able to play an absolute guiding role when the big team goes south!

At that time, as long as the emperor and the queen mother are happy, the benefits he will gain will definitely not be smaller than the prince who stayed in the capital!

While Zhu Changan was in a comprehensive layout, he also found his mother-in-law, Concubine Zhao.

In addition to the cost of dotting and buying hearts along the way, he also needs some usable ...... Baby!

Concubine Zhao Cai Wanliang, from an extremely ordinary background, was originally a nine-grade sesame official lady. The family was in the middle of the road, and he was forced to make a living, so he entered the palace. She was originally serving by the side of a favored Xin Jieyu. Who knew that Jieyu and the emperor drank too much wine one night, got drunk like mud, and vomited the emperor.

She seized the opportunity to change clothes and wash for the emperor, but she deceived the chamberlain guarding outside, and with a bit of posture and means, she rolled directly with the emperor.

In the middle of the night, the emperor, who drank a lot, was so confused that he forgot to ask the chamberlain to give medicine. The emperor almost forgot about it, but the lucky Cai's stomach moved.

Cai's is an assertion, and he hid it for five months, and waited until the fetus in his womb was stable, and then he stabbed the matter directly in front of the emperor, the queen mother and the queen at a banquet!

She has changed from a slave to a nobleman.

At that time, it was the time when the queen and Concubine Jing were fighting, because she had no family and no backing, neither of the top two looked down on her, and she made too much trouble at the banquet, but she survived in the cracks.

Zhu Si also landed safely, and the good nobleman was upgraded to a good concubine.

At that time, the good concubine knew her own situation, lived far away cautiously, sold miserably and pitifully, and never fought for one or two. And the queen concubines each have a son, and they have a miasma in the harem. The emperor is a good concubine, and he comes to her from time to time to sit and rest.

Soon, the good concubine became a good noble concubine. When Zhu was four or three years old, Concubine Liang was pregnant again, and this time, she naturally had no luck. The child was not born, but the good concubine went one step further and became a good concubine.

Eight years ago, Concubine Liang gave birth to the ninth princess and got the official title "Zhao".

Zhao: A glimmer of light in the darkness can only be from the sun and the moon!

At this point, Concubine Zhao also understands that her promotion path is over!

Without a backstage and backer, even if she has ten or eight more sons, she will not be able to go up again! Unless...... Cap in one step, up to the Queen Mother!

The road ahead is difficult and there is little hope, but she has never given up! Fortunately, her son is sensible and has the same forbearance as her, and they survived in the thorny land in the end!
