"Steward Zhu, this is a meal for you, you eat it while it's hot."

"Huh? How come there are only two steamed buns in this? Steward Zhu was ordered by Wu Wanyi to rest in his yard, and he also sent two people to serve him in a good name, but he was actually staring at him and not coming out to find trouble for Wu Wanyi.

"Steward Zhu, don't you know? Because you didn't buy food according to the princess's instructions, before you got food, the whole house now has to cut back on food and clothing. The subordinate said bluntly, "Don't say that there are only two steamed buns, even if the princess is a lady, there are only steamed buns, you can be content." ”

Steward Zhu picked up the two steamed buns and put them down again, "The princess didn't send someone to find me?" ”

"What is the princess looking for you?" The subordinate looked Steward Zhu up and down, "Didn't the princess say it?" Before the prince returns home, you don't have to perform the duties of a housekeeper for the time being, and you can retire in this courtyard with peace of mind. ”

"There are a lot of miscellaneous things in this palace, and the princess has taken over the palace at the beginning, I'm not worried that she won't be able to cope with it!" Steward Zhu clicked his lips, and he always felt that it was not a taste.

"The princess is amazing, hasn't she taken over the middle feed of the house before? The stewards of this house are in the hands of the princess Niangniang, and all of them are obedient," the servant said, "The princess Niangniang also promoted Steward Yang, who used to manage the treasury, to temporarily serve as the housekeeper during your rest. ”

"What!" Steward Zhu was so shocked that he knocked over the rice bowl in front of him, and the two big steamed buns rolled on the ground at once.

The next person picked up the steamed bun with a pity on his face, patted the dust on the surface of the steamed bun and put it in the rice bowl again, "Steward Zhu, now is a special period, there are not many steamed buns to prepare, you will be served." ”

Steward Zhu looked at the steamed buns in the rice bowl with some distraction, "I have been serving in front of the prince since he was born, and then when he opened the mansion, I followed him to the palace as a housekeeper, just with a princess who is happy, what qualifications does she have to dismiss me as a housekeeper?" ”

"Why? With the title of Princess Yu on the head of others! The subordinate asked Steward Zhu with some confusion, "Steward Zhu, I said why can't you see through this little thing, Princess Yu is a serious princess, not only is Zong Die, but the prince also told us to serve her well, only she is respectful." She trusted you before, and she didn't ask much about the affairs of the house, but it doesn't mean that you can do whatever you want. You're a good housekeeper, but you're just a slave in the end, what's wrong with the master getting rid of the position of a slave? ”

The subordinate glanced at the pig's liver color on Steward Zhu's face, "If you want me to say, the princess is still kind to you, if you put it on the prince, you will try it, no matter how dedicated you were before and how much you contributed to the palace of the king, the least you can do now is to send to Zhuangzi to work as a coolie." Hello, think about it! ”

The subordinate didn't say much, and went out of the door directly to stay at the gate of the courtyard, trying not to give Steward Zhu a feeling of not being imprisoned. The princess Niangniang treated Steward Zhu really hard, for fear that he would be wronged in his heart and couldn't think about it, so she let herself enlighten him more, and let him wait for the prince to come back and make decisions for him. The servant glanced back at Steward Zhu, who was still a little obsessed, and sighed, the princess is really kind-hearted.

"Princess Niangniang, my subordinates have found food." I searched around the Sunrise Mansion, and it didn't take much effort to bring back the good news.

"Found it?" Wu Wanyi looked at Liri with wide eyes, "Where will you be willing to sell surplus grain at this time?" ”

"The first village in the world!" Liri said, "They heard that there was a shortage of food in the palace of the king of Yu, so they took the initiative to contact their subordinates. However, their grain had to be transported from the south, and it would take seven days at the earliest to reach the capital. ”

"The first village in the world?" Wu Wanyi blinked, the silver of the prince of Keng'an before was also the property of the first village in the world, "Do they have other conditions?" ”

"There are no other conditions, but the price is a little high," Liri scratched his head, "The average catty of rice is about ten cents more expensive." ”

"It doesn't matter if it's more expensive, the main thing is that we can't go hungry." Wu Wanyi heard that it was more expensive, if the first village in the world was just for profit, everything would be easy to say. Anyway, he pit Prince An with 400,000 grains before, and even if he took out 10,000 taels of food to buy, it would be enough for the palace to eat for a year. "Then let's do it, you go and contact the first village in the world, how much food they have, we all want it."

In a blink of an eye, on the second day of the second month of February, the dragon raised its head to sacrifice to the sky.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair, and the ministers who did not support Prince Rui were also trapped in the main hall with him. Eating, drinking, and sleeping, the ministers almost all finished in the main hall, and they couldn't get out of the Jinluan Hall at all.

"Grandpa Gao, help me get up!" The emperor seemed to be a little impatient, ready to end this senseless captivity.

As soon as the emperor made a move, Prince Rui's subordinates in the hall were on alert, this was already the twenty-first day of their forced palace, because Lord Rui had not been able to call Prince Yan to control it, and they could only imprison the emperor and ministers in the palace, and there were no other actions.

"Your Majesty, what do you want to do?" Governor Sima of the Five Soldiers asked.

"Do I have to report to you what I'm going to do?" The emperor had sideways eyes and fierce eyes.

"Your Majesty, if you decide to write an edict to give the throne to Prince Rui, you will be assigned pen and ink." "Otherwise," said the Governor, "sit in your seat and do not move." ”

"What a seed!" The emperor said disdainfully, "Your vision is really not good, with a master who has no courage to do things at all, you have been forcing the palace for more than 20 days, except for imprisoning me and the ministers and not contacting the outside world, there is no other action." How did I give birth to such a disdainful son? ”

"Your Majesty, isn't the prince just thinking about you and his flesh and blood?" The Governor said, "Lord Rui doesn't want to hurt you, but you don't want to give him the throne, so he gives you and these ministers who don't support him time to stay here and think clearly." As long as you are willing to hand over the throne to Prince Rui, Weichen will immediately let you go back to the Qianqing Palace to rest. ”

"I want to go back to the Qianqing Palace to rest, do I need your permission?" The emperor sneered, "It's a joke!" ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen has taken control of the entire palace, and the commander of the forbidden army is also under the command of Prince Rui, and this Jinluan Palace is full of Weichen's people inside and outside," the governor said arrogantly, "Although you are the Ninety-Five, but now without the permission of Weichen, you will not be able to move an inch!" ”
