"Hiss......"

Before the mouth of the merchant surnamed Zhang could be closed, he couldn't help but open it again.

"Isn't Guo Changshi the bread and butter of all the people in Beiping Mansion!"

Shopkeeper Wang continued: "The cement roads in Beiping Mansion today are also paved by Guo Changshi's advice to His Royal Highness King Yan! ”

Zhang's surname is Shangjia: "......"

"The grain shop in Yanwang's Mansion was also built by Guo Changshi!"

“……”

"I heard that the attack on Goryeo and the Wa Kingdom is also the credit of Guo Changshi!"

“……”

"Also, fishing in the sea, now there are so many sea fish to eat in Beiping Mansion, which is also the credit of Guo Changshi!"

“……”

"All the officials of Yanwangfu, Yanshanwei, and the shopkeepers, shopkeepers, and even servants of Yanwangfu can get so many salaries and benefits every year, all thanks to Guo Changshi's ......"

“……”

"Guo Changshi is still the only teacher of His Royal Highness the Prince!"

“……”

"All the scholars in Beiping Mansion, whether they are children of poor families, businessmen, or gentry, can take the exam and enter the Yanwang Mansion as officials, which is also what Guo Changshi admonished!"

“……”

At this time, Shang Jia surnamed Zhang was already speechless in shock.

Shopkeeper Wang smiled faintly and said, "So, Shopkeeper Zhang should know that Guo Changshi has a special status in Beiping Mansion or Yanwang Mansion!" ”

"Know...... Got it! ”

The merchant surnamed Zhang nodded slowly with some mechanization.

He didn't understand this.

Yesterday, Guo Changshi said that he was still low-key.

Won't King Yan let him go?

I'm afraid, it's already in the Guo Mansion, and I don't know how many guards have been planted!

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shiver coldly, and cold sweat broke out on my forehead.

The person who told him that Guo Changshi was not taken seriously in the Yanwang Mansion was simply going to kill him!

Suddenly, Shang Jia surnamed Zhang remembered something again, and asked in a ghostly manner.

"Brother Wang, I don't know what His Royal Highness King Yan thinks of Shang Jia?"

"As long as you don't deceive the people, His Royal Highness King Yan is very tolerant of businessmen."

Speaking of this, the shopkeeper Wang subconsciously showed a trace of respect on his face.

"The caravan stewards under King Yan's Mansion and the shopkeepers are almost as many as the merchants in the entire Beiping Mansion.

And all of this is thanks to that Guo Changshi......"

"Guo Changshi again?"

The merchant surnamed Zhang couldn't help but look stunned.

"Exactly!"

Shopkeeper Wang nodded slowly, and said with a straight face.

"Brother Zhang, although I don't know why you want to inquire about Guo Changshi, I will say a sincere word.

In Beiping Mansion, everyone respects Guo Changshi! ”

"Thank you Brother Wang for informing me, the little brother has been taught!"

Shangjia surnamed Zhang nodded hurriedly, thoughtfully.

At the same time.

The merchants and gentry of the entire Beiping Mansion also looked at the arrogant one in front of them with a look of surprise, asking them to secretly turn their backs on Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and then take refuge in the merchant of the emperor's grandson.

They were all dumbfounded, what is this trouble?

Originally.

Because of the imperial examination in the past few months, they were already a little dissatisfied with the imperial grandson.

And now, that imperial grandson is so shameless, let them harm their own interests and be loyal to him!

In the world, how can there be such a shameless prince?

Moreover, the imperial grandson is not only shameless, but also stupid.

If you don't find out the prestige of His Royal Highness King Yan in Beiping Mansion, you dare to make such a rash move!

Don't you know that these businessmen have just finished talking about them, and in less than an hour, His Royal Highness King Yan will know everything?

And that one is the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and they don't dare to offend.

However, go and offend His Royal Highness King Yan......

Thinking about it, these gentry couldn't help but shudder subconsciously.

just vaguely sent those businessmen away one by one.

Then, these gentry hurriedly got into the carriage and rushed to the Yanwang Mansion together.

……

And in the palace of King Yan.

Guo An just told Zhu Di about yesterday's lobbying businessman.

"Your Highness, since that person has already made the Shen family break off the cooperation with my Beiping Mansion, he has sent Shangjia to lobby Weichen.

Presumably, there must be more moves from that one! ”

Zhu Di's face sank.

"What does Guo Qing mean, he still wants to lobby those officials under King Yan's mansion?"

Guo An nodded slightly, "Maybe it's not just those officials, even those gentry, who will also lobby!" ”

"The gentry?"

Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, "What's the use of lobbying those gentry?" ”

Guo An said: "Your Highness, in the eyes of some people, the gentry and sages of various states and counties are the foundation of the Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, now, many officials in my Yanwang Mansion are the children of various gentry families in Beiping Mansion.

Naturally, that person should also think that those gentry and sages under the Beiping Mansion are also the foundation of the Yanwang Mansion! ”

"I see!"

Zhu Di couldn't help nodding slowly, and praised: "If that's the case, Zhu Yunwen, that kid, is finally smarter!"

But it's still that stupid......"

Guo An was a little puzzled: "It's just that he doesn't know the situation in Beiping Mansion."

Moreover, Weichen couldn't figure it out, how could he dare to treat Yanwangfu so openly!

Your Majesty and his entourage don't like to kill each other! ”

"He's not afraid of arousing His Majesty's disgust?"

Zhu Di sneered: "As the emperor's grandson, he has something to rely on!" As long as it doesn't go too far, his father won't scold him! ”

Guo An said: "But this time, he will inevitably arouse the vigilance and dissatisfaction of the various vassal kings!" ”

Zhu Di sighed slightly, "I hope so!" ”

Guo An was stunned.

Then.

Zhu Fu, who had always been busy all day long and couldn't see anyone, actually walked in slowly from outside the hall.

"Weichen Zhu Fu see His Highness!"

A hint of surprise flashed in Zhu Di's eyes, "Zhu Qing, why are you here?" ”

Zhu Fu glanced at Guo An on the side with an inexplicable expression, bowed his hand slightly towards Zhu Di, and said, "Weichen is ashamed, and I have come to ask His Royal Highness King Yan for guilt!" ”

Zhu Di was even more strange, "What is Zhu Qing's crime?" ”

ZHU Fudao; "Your Royal Highness, yesterday there was an envoy from the grandson who came to look for Weichen. Wechen also knows that His Royal Highness is as kind to Wechen as a mountain, but Wechen is a minister of the court, and he doesn't dare to be that disloyal and unrighteous minister......"

"Did Zhu Yunwen send someone to lobby Zhu Qing?"

Zhu Di couldn't help but look surprised.

Zhu Fu nodded slowly, "Weichen is ashamed!" ”

"It's okay!"

Zhu Di smiled freely, "Zhu Qing is a minister of the court, but he is also the chief of the Yan Palace. Zhu Qing's responsibility is to lead the government officials to provide for their own affairs, and is responsible for handling the affairs and political lawsuits of the Yanwang Mansion.

Zhu Qing is loyal to the court, but he can't neglect his duties!

Since this is the case, then what does it matter if he Zhu Yunwen lobbied Zhu Qing? ”

"This ......"

Zhu Fu was stunned for a moment, and then saluted Zhu Di with a grateful face.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your magnanimity!"

Zhu Di waved his hand slowly and said, "Okay, Zhu Qing go and deal with government affairs!" ”

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Zhu Fu saluted again, then said goodbye and left.

Guo An sincerely praised: "Zhu Changshi is really a sincere gentleman!" ”

Zhu Di glanced at Guo An, and said helplessly: "Yes, Zhu Qing will be bullied by Guo Qing!" ”

Guo An suddenly felt wronged.

"Your Highness has wronged Weichen, Weichen is just lacking in ability."

Zhu Di sneered with disdain on his face, "Hmph, Guo Qing is the most brazen official we have ever seen in our lives......"

Guo An: "......"

"Your Highness!"

At this time, Liang Hu walked in from outside the hall with a look of urgency.

Zhu Di asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Liang Hu said: "There are a group of gentry outside the palace, and a group of gentry outside the palace have come to visit. ”

"Oh?"

Zhu Di's eyes widened, he glanced at Guo An, and said, "Please let them in!" ”

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Liang Hu gave up his hand and retreated.

Soon, he led a group of gentry into the hall from outside.

"I'll wait to see His Royal Highness King Yan!"

"Everyone, please get up!"

Zhu Di said with a gentle face, "Liang Hu, tell me to go down, serve tea to all the gentry outside, and watch the seats!" ”

"Yes, Your Highness!"

After a while, a chair and a cup of herbal tea were served.

Zhu Di smiled lightly and said, "Everyone, please sit down, if there is anything, sit down and talk slowly!" ”

Hearing this, all the gentry couldn't help but tremble, and a hint of happiness flashed in their eyes, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness King Yan!" ”

Not long after these gentry sat down, they could not bear it anymore, and they pleaded guilty with anxiety.

"Your Highness, I waited for this time to come here to ask Your Highness for sin."

"Please?"

Zhu Di smiled slightly, and he was not surprised.

"I don't know what you're guilty of?"

"Your Royal Highness, early yesterday morning, a merchant came to the villain's mansion, saying that it was an order from the imperial grandson of the Jingshi......

"Your Highness, so is the villain!"

"Your Highness......"

In an instant, all the gentry said one after another.

Moreover, it is all a rhetoric and a routine.

"Humph!"

After these gentry finished speaking, Zhu Di's face suddenly became gloomy.

"Zhu Yunwen's kid is really getting more and more excessive, he hasn't succeeded to the throne yet, so he can't wait.

Moreover, not only did he send people to lobby and plot against the officials in our house, but now he actually wants to secretly collude with the gentry and village sages under our rule......"

"With such a means, he is the grandson of the emperor, and the prince of the Ming Dynasty can actually do it, it is really a shame for the eldest brother and his father......"

The faces of the gentry and countrymen suddenly changed greatly, and they laughed at each other, but they didn't dare to say a word.

They came to ask Zhu Di for the sake of their lives and had to come, even if the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen blamed him afterwards, they had countless reasons to excuse them.

However, if you follow Zhu Di, the king of Yan, to scold the emperor's grandson Zhu Yunwen......

They are really killing themselves, and the whole family can be destroyed!

Zhu Di continued to say angrily: "It seems that Zhu Yunwen has followed those southern Confucianists to learn stupidly.

I didn't learn the good, but I learned the bad.

A grandson of the emperor is not good at learning to govern the country, to educate and educate farmers and businessmen, so that the people of the Ming Dynasty are rich.

Now, he knows how to use the means of inferiority to suppress people he is not used to at will......

Hmph, wait a few days, we have to play the emperor and impeach him fiercely, especially those companions in the East Palace, the attendants ......"

"Your Highness is wise!"

On the side, Guo An was very timely and flattering.

"Your Highness is wise!"

Seeing this, the eyes of the gentry lit up, and they hurriedly followed the flattery.

Zhu Di waved his hand lightly, and said gently: "We are just a vassal king, so we don't dare to reprimand that imperial grandson."

However, we are not easy to bully, he is just a royal grandson.

It's a big deal, after he succeeds to the throne, let's move to the country of Goryeo Yan, or the country of Wa, what can he be to me? ”

The gentry were in their hearts.

Zhu Di continued: "As for you, you are the people of the Ming Dynasty after all, and you can't provoke that Zhu Yunwen.

Whatever he wants you to do, you can do it with confidence, but you won't be embarrassed! ”

"Your Highness is merciful!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

All the gentry couldn't help but feel relieved and full of gratitude.

At this time, Zhu Di's face suddenly turned cold.

"However, you can't do anything that harms the people of Beiping Mansion, and you can't do anything that harms our Yan Wangfu!"
