Chapter 109: I'm going to catch a toad in the moat!

Today, the people of the capital have opened their eyes, and after Lu Lu and Chang Sheng failed to fight for "My Brother-in-law is the Prince" on the street, they saw a magical scene again.

More than a dozen brocade guards riding fast horses, wearing flying fish suits, and embroidered spring knives at their waists, galloped around an inconspicuous carriage.

"Who is sitting in the carriage, who can command the Jinyi guards to be moved?"

"Are you stupid?"

"Jinyi Wei is out of the horse, either to protect the emperor, or to arrest the Qin criminal!"

"In my opinion, this is another Qin criminal!"

"Seeing that so many brocade guards have been used to escort them, this person must have committed a lot of crimes!"

Zhu Yunxi heard the discussion of the people around him, and his little face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

The mouths of these melon-eating people are too damaged, why do they still say that they are guilty of Qin?

However, after listening to the words of the people, Zhu Yunxi became more nervous, and secretly reviewed his performance in the past half a month, and after making sure that he had not done anything out of the ordinary except for writing a book of golden bottles, he felt a little more confident in his heart.

As long as I bite to death and don't know about Jin Zhumei, then the bad old man will have no reason to beat me!

Zhu Yunxi recalled the bits and pieces of getting along with Lao Zhu during this time, and felt that this old man was still good, as long as he didn't commit it in his hands, he committed his taboos, and he was usually as easy to coax as a normal old man.

Just as Zhu Yunxi was thinking wildly, the carriage drove into Xihua Gate.

Normally, whether it is an official or a prince, he has to stop when he enters the palace in a carriage and arrives at the door, and he is not qualified to ride a horse or a car in the Forbidden City.

However, the guards guarding the door today acted as if they hadn't seen anything, and when they saw the brocade guard who was the first to carry the waist card of the tiger master, they let him go directly without even looking at it.

The carriage drove all the way to the gate of the Qianqing Palace before it stopped and put Zhu Yunxi down.

"Third Emperor Sun, hurry up and go in, don't let the emperor wait!"

"Oh......"

Zhu Yunxi stepped into the gate of the Qianqing Palace, and as soon as he entered, he saw a familiar back, kneeling respectfully at the bottom of the steps of the main hall.

Zhu Yunxi walked over and saw that Deng Shile was happy, stepped forward and patted the man's shoulder and smiled.

"Wow!"

"Isn't this my uncle and grandfather, why are you a deserter again?"

Lan Yu was very happy to see this grandson, but when he heard this, his old face suddenly darkened.

"What nonsense, I came back to report on the orders of His Majesty!"

"Oh......"

"It turns out that the imperial grandfather asked you to come back."

"Then why are you kneeling here, why don't you go in and talk to Grandpa Huang?"

Zhu Yunxi's idea is very simple, if someone chats with the old man, the old man will not pay attention to himself, and he can pass the test again.

But when he heard this, Lan Yu's ears were very useful, and he felt that his nephew and grandson knew that he pitied his uncle and grandfather.

"I have to wait for your imperial grandfather to summon me, or you can go in and ask me, when will your imperial grandfather be busy?"

"Okay!"

Zhu Yunxi took this task very happily, and then ran into the main hall upside down, and pounced on the old Zhu Tou who was reviewing the recital.

"Grandpa Huang, my uncle asked me to ask you, when will you meet him!"

As soon as Lao Zhu heard the words of this turtle grandson, he knew that this turtle grandson was playing with him.

We sent someone to call you for so long, and your turtle grandson only came, you must have secretly run out of the palace again!

"Your uncle and grandfather are not in a hurry, tell us first, where did you go to play today?"

Seeing that the treacherous plan was revealed, Zhu Yunxi couldn't help but smirk in embarrassment.

"Imperial Grandpa Shengming, I really can't hide anything from you. Today, my thirteenth uncle went to the palace to observe the people's feelings. ”

"Aware of the people's feelings?"

Lao Zhu heard that the whole person was not good, this grandson didn't pick a reliable point when he lied, did he really fool us as a stupid old man?

"Then tell me, what did you observe today?"

"Prices!"

"My grandson mainly inquired about the price of daily use by the people, for example, steamed buns were still a penny a few days ago, and today they have risen to two cents."

"In addition, the prices of pig iron, raw silk and other materials have skyrocketed recently, and the price of salt has also fluctuated slightly."

Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to see this grandson's jokes, but after hearing this, he suddenly had some doubts in his heart, doesn't this grandson really understand this?

"Then tell us why these prices are rising?"

"If you can explain it today, we won't punish you today, and we won't ban you from leaving the palace in the future."

When Zhu Yunxi heard this, he was surprised in his heart. This was his homework on purpose, specifically to deal with the old man's fault, but he didn't expect there to be an accident.

"Grandpa Huang, are you serious?"

"You have no jokes!"

"The rise in grain prices should be seasonal fluctuations, and every year when there is no success, grain prices will rise by two or three percent."

"But this is only part of the reason, and the other part of the reason may be related to the disaster in several prefectures and counties along the Yangtze River, where businessmen are betting on this year's grain failure, so they stockpiled grain in advance, which led to a further rise in grain prices."

"The price of pig iron and raw silk is easy to understand, and now it is rumored in the palace and outside the palace that the emperor's grandfather is preparing for the 11th Northern Expedition, these are all military supplies, and the price will inevitably be affected!"

When Lao Zhu heard this, his eyes were as big as dragon eyes, and his heart seemed to be on fire.

This is when he led Zhu Biao to the street, he personally taught Zhu Biao the way of helping the country!

It is to start from the subtleties, from the small to the big, to see the small.

Although it is not a big deal to have a steamed bun for a penny or two pennies, once it is magnified a hundredfold, a thousand, or even ten thousand times, it is a major event related to whether the Ming Dynasty is stable!

"Who taught you that?"

Zhu Yunxi was immediately unhappy when he heard this, this old man always looked at people flattened, if Zhu Yunxi said this, he would probably be able to make him happy, right?

"Grandpa Huang, is there anyone else to teach this?"

"This thing is very simple, this is the normal law of the market, how can you be taught by others!"

"The law of the market ......"

Lao Zhu muttered these words, looked at the grandson's face again, and after making sure that the grandson didn't seem to be lying, he immediately hugged him happily, and then kissed him fiercely on the face.

"It's really worthy of being our good grandson, it's really a good head, it's many times stronger than your father's foolishness, hahaha!"

Lao Zhu is so excited, he hasn't taught this grandson how to govern the country, but this grandson actually learned it by mistake!

What does this mean?

It means that this child is the child of destiny!

Otherwise, why didn't he inquire about the prices of gnats and crickets at a young age, but cared about the prices of steamed buns, raw silk, and pig iron?

Lao Zhu kissed several times emotionally, and then put the eldest grandson on the ground again. disliked Zhu Yunxi, wanted to wipe the saliva on his face, but was embarrassed to wipe it in front of him, so he could only giggle like a second fool.

Lao Zhu was even happier when he saw the eldest grandson's naïve state, and stepped forward to pinch the eldest grandson's increasingly fat face and smiled.

"We're going to reward you today, reward you heavily, you can ask us for whatever you want!"

When Zhu Yunxi heard this, he immediately forgot about the saliva mark on his face, and was happily thinking about what good things to order.

The first thing he thought of was to move to the Yuwang Mansion and live with Uncle Thirteen. But as soon as this thought was born, he pressed it down.

I am also stupid, this kind of good thing that I can't meet for a few years, I put forward such a bad condition?

Seeing that the emperor's grandfather is so happy today, even if he asks him for a big mansion as a palace, he won't refuse, right?

"Grandpa Huang, I want ......"

As soon as Zhu Yunxi said this, he suddenly couldn't continue, because he thought of one more thing, that is, the last time he was cared for by a group of young grandmothers in the harem.

If you show your heart to the imperial grandfather, will you be beaten to death by the imperial grandfather?

Zhu Yunxi hesitated again when he thought of this, and his heart was even more up, thinking about whether it was worth it.

He knew very well that once he mentioned this matter, he might no longer be able to hang the old man's neck and sell cute pig hair as usual.

Either they were killed instantly, or they were ......

"Grandpa Huang, if your grandson says the wrong thing and makes you unhappy, you won't be angry, right?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's heart jumped when he heard this, thinking of the "angry man" quotations before this grandson, and sensitively felt that this grandson was going to spit ivory in his mouth again. But when he thought that he had just said a big thing, he could only agree to it.

"Of course!"

"No matter what you ask, whether the imperial grandfather can meet you or not, the imperial grandfather promises not to be angry!"

Zhu Yunxi saw that Lao Zhu was so assured, so he mustered up the courage to say in a mosquito-like voice.

"Grandpa Huang, I mean if ......"

"If I'm better than my second brother, you'...... Will you always like me? ”

After Zhu Yunxi said this, he looked at Lao Zhu worriedly, and when he saw Lao Zhu, who was still smiling just now, he immediately changed his face when he heard his words, and he immediately regretted it in his heart.

I shouldn't believe in the evil of Sandezi, how good it is to directly ask for a palace, and mention these things that I don't have!

"Grandpa Huang, my grandson just joked, don't take it seriously!"

"You should reward me with a house, let me move out and live alone, I don't want to stay in the palace......"

After Zhu Yunxi said these words against his will, he felt a little aggrieved inexplicably.

I really don't want to fight for power and profit, I just don't want to watch those women in the harem be buried, and I don't want to see the country that the bad old man has worked so hard to build is buried by Zhu Yunwen's grandson......

Although he has always held the mentality of picking pig hair, through this period of time together, he subconsciously regarded this old man as his closest person in the world.

Therefore, he really wants to do something for the bad old man, protect the Ming Dynasty for him, keep this prosperity, and keep this family affection.

But when he saw Lao Zhu's cold expression, he knew that his feelings were wrong.

I shouldn't have this kind of thought, how good it is to be a vassal king honestly.

Secretly poking and staring in secret, waiting for Zhu Di to clear the side of the Qingjun, and then in the name of the Qingjun side and then the Qingjun side!

"Grandpa Huang, you are busy first, and your grandson has retired......"

Zhu Yuanzhang kept talking to stop the eldest grandson when he was about to walk to the door.

"Stop!"

"We're not done yet, what are you going to do?"

Zhu Yunxi raised his sleeve and wiped his face, and said without looking back.

"I'm going to catch toads in the moat!"
