Seriously, Xia Yuan was actually mentally prepared to be punished.

But who would have thought that the emperor would not believe it and think that Zhu Houzhao was pulling him to do business.

After pondering for a moment, his mind probably turned.

The emperor felt that the white sugar trade was unreliable and could not make money

That's why I said it was ridiculous.

Why?

I think it's because the emperor doesn't understand business, in terms of business, Zhu Houzhao is an imbecile, these two are father and son, and it is difficult to guarantee that it is not a genetic problem.

Thinking in his heart, he looked at Zhu Houzhao again, and now the pressure was on the dog prince.

Xia Yuan can remember clearly that this pit can be shouted that the silver will not be given.

Zhu Houzhao was silent for a while, "It's gone." ”

"Gone?"

"Well, there's no need to do business."

"More than fifty thousand taels of silver. In just a few days, it's all gone? Emperor Hongzhi was obviously a little unbearable, and he was a little out of voice when he spoke.

"Yes, it's all gone, but it doesn't matter, as long as we wait for our business to open, we can earn it back soon."

"Smack!"

Hearing such innocent words, Zhu Youzhu was even more angry, and immediately patted the imperial case, and suddenly got up, his face was completely gloomy, and with irrepressible anger, "I don't believe that more than 50,000 taels of silver can be used in just a few days, how much is left, and I will be truthfully recruited!" ”

In the face of the emperor's thunderous anger, although it was not directed at himself, Xia Yuan's careful liver was still fluttering, and Zhu Houzhao was even more shrunken, but he still stiffened his neck and said: "It's just used up." ”

“.”

Seeing that this product was so iron-headed and tough with the emperor, Xia Yuan's heart thumped.

In fact, there is still some silver left, and there is a lot, about 30,000 taels, which I keep in my own house.

However, at this time, he faced a dilemma.

If you tell the truth, you really can't help but force the prince, Zhu Houzhao is rare to be so top, carrying the pressure of the emperor in front, blushing and stubbornly insisting that it is used up, and he is demolishing the stage in the back, is it still a person?

But if he didn't say it, the emperor's anger would burn to himself.

"Xiao Jing, go, get a bamboo strip for me!"

Hearing this, Zhu Houzhao immediately coaxed, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Father, don't fight!" There's still silver left."

With that, he hurriedly took out a bulging money bag from his arms, walked over and put it on the imperial case.

Emperor Hongzhi picked up the money bag and opened it, and the golden light inside was shining, and it poured into the imperial case, and dozens of small gold bars poured out.

Each one is ten taels of garlic strips of gold, and these dozens of sticks together are four or five hundred taels, which is converted into four or five thousand taels of silver.

Zhu Youzhu casually stroked twice with his hand, "What about the rest?" ”

Zhu Houzhao said very simply: "It's gone." ”

After a pause, he added, "It's really gone, that's all there is left." ”

“.”

Emperor Hongzhi was speechless, stared at him for a long time, believed this, and then reprimanded: "It's really ridiculous! In just a few days, more than 50,000 taels of silver have been squandered by you, and there are only these thousands of taels left, not to mention the ridiculous nonsense, and you still want to deceive me, how can I fool the past!? ”

"What do you think I am, that I am so stupid in my heart? I don't want to make progress all day long, thinking about what business to do, and I also pull Xia Qing's family to accompany you to do it.

It's just a matter of pulling it to do it, but instead of honestly admitting it, it reverses black and white here, saying what Xia Qing's family instigated you."

"It's not instigation, it's the master who came to partner with his son."

"You still dare to deceive!" Emperor Hongzhi's eyes widened, and his slightly softened face darkened again, "What kind of sugar do you use to do business, you are like you when you are Xia Qing's family?" ”

Hearing this, Xia Yuan sighed leisurely in his heart, stood up and said: "Your Majesty, it is indeed the sugar business that the minister instigated His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to do, and it is also the partner of His Royal Highness that the minister is looking for, the minister does not dare to deceive His Majesty, this matter is true, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not lying, what he said is all."

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Youjiao's angry eyes swept over, Xia Yuan couldn't help but shrink his neck, but he still mustered up the courage to continue: "What Your Highness said is the truth, this matter is all the fault of the minister, please punish Your Majesty." ”

Emperor Hongzhi looked at him quietly for a few seconds, but the anger in his eyes was suppressed, "Qing doesn't have to help him lie, I don't believe that you can be so ridiculous and naïve, such nonsense things, only I, a rebel, can think of it."

If Xia Qing's family is so unbearable, how can they become the champion of the dynasty? I know that you met the prince when you were young, you are the same age, and you have been teaching the prince to read, and you are also a teacher and a friend, and you have a deep friendship, but you don't have to have this kind of heart for the prince. ”

"But it's really a minister"

"Don't say any more."

Well, it's all up to this, what else can I say.

Xia Yuan sighed faintly in his heart, it turned out that in the emperor's heart, this selling white sugar was something that only two people would come up with, and as a champion, how could he be a second force?

If you are a second force, then what are the others?

White sugar can be sold. The emperor didn't see the white sugar, so he felt that this thing couldn't make money, so he just gave it.

Thinking in his heart, Xia Yuan touched his hand on his waist, but he didn't touch it, he looked down a little puzzled, and was immediately stunned, what is my special sugar?

Several eunuchs came to deliver the decree before, and when he left, he found a small cloth bag, stuffed a handful of white sugar into it, and tied it to the leather belt around his waist, but now the small cloth bag is gone.

Riding a horse all the way, the designation is upside down.

At this time, Emperor Hongzhi turned his gaze back to look at Zhu Houzhao, anger poured out of his eyes again, and his face was like a Sichuan opera face, and quickly darkened: "I ask you again, don't push others again and again, answer honestly, if you dare to deceive again, I will never spare you!" ”

Zhu Houzhao knows very well what his father wants to hear, but he obviously didn't lie, he didn't deceive, and he was telling the truth, so why didn't he believe it?

So he could only choose to deceive, and said angrily: "Well, it was Erchen who pulled the master to do business together." ”

"I know that you are the only one who is so ridiculous and nonsense."

"It's not ridiculous, it's a serious business, it's a business that can definitely make money."

didn't care about Emperor Hongzhi's angry face, Zhu Houzhao's cheeks were already red, and he was a hundred dissatisfied and a thousand angry.

He found that since he was a child, it seemed that no matter what he did, this father felt that he was playing ridiculous.

He read military books, studied the layout of the military formation, and said that this was absurd nonsense.

He practiced martial arts to strengthen his body, and said that this was ridiculous nonsense.

He placed a Mongolian felt in the East Palace, and imitated the Tatar habits in it, saying that it was absurd.

He said that he was going to raise troops to the north, and he was ashamed of the civil fort back then, saying that this was absurd.

Now doing business, even he knows that he can make money, but his father is still ridiculous and nonsense.

Emperor Hongzhi's chest rose and fell for a while, suppressing his anger, and he didn't want to entangle with this stupid son again, "Go down, go down, get out of here!" ”

"Don't get out!"

Emperor Hongzhi was stunned, and then his whole popularity was ruined, and he roared: "Someone! Come! Fork the prince out! ”
