Seeing that the crown princess seemed to be in a much better mood, the princess said with a smile.

"If you're in a much better mood, then let me tell you something, haven't we become some kind of customs department recently? My brother, your brother-in-law, isn't it not easy to do business now? I wondered, why don't you come forward and give him a chance to get a job at the Customs Department? ”

The crown prince glanced at the princess and said with a smile: "You, you, I knew that you came to me to say good things, there must be something, just your brother, Zhang Kejian?" It's not that I said, if he goes to the Customs Department, it will be a theft by the guard! The taxes and silver paid by businessmen to the state do not fall into the pockets of the state, but have to fall into his pockets of Zhang Kejian. ”

The crown princess pouted: "Can't you, who is a brother-in-law, help me?" That's my brother-in-law, what's wrong with your help? You are the crown prince of the imperial court, who can not listen to you when you say a word? ”

The prince smiled bitterly: "Sometimes, I really don't know if you are smart or stupid, Customs Department, the old man deliberately asked the eunuch to be a customs envoy, because of what?" Just because the old man didn't believe in anyone, he used eunuchs, because eunuchs looked down on everyone, and they were no one when they left the palace, and they could only feel that they were human beings and respected eunuchs when they left the palace. ”

"The emperor wants to firmly control the Customs Department in his own hands, the other officials in the Customs Department are basically transferred from the Ministry of Households, as well as the Ministry of Industry, the highest is only a main matter, but with them, they can contain the eunuch Yuan Hong, and prevent his family from becoming bigger, so many people in the Customs Department are staring, let's send your brother in, this is for his good, this is harming him."

The crown princess only understood after hearing this.

"I see, no, didn't you say that the old man doesn't like money?"

"The old man doesn't like money, but the things he wants to do, all use money, and he uses a lot of money, the north has not been peaceful, the old man dreams of going to the north to fight with those Yuan people, the old man also wants to repair the Yongle Canon, this is also a money-consuming thing, and the Yongle Canon can't be made up by himself, right? You have to collect books from the past and the present, and these books can't be for nothing, right? Gotta spend some money, right? ”

"The old man doesn't like money, but he doesn't need money for just these two or that? It's all about money! The old man can tolerate Zhang Kejian going in, as long as I arrange Zhang Kejian to go in, the old man doesn't have to think about who the country is for, and our family will be exiled immediately! ”

Zhang Yan sighed.

"What is this called, this doesn't work, it doesn't work, you say, you are the prince, I am the crown princess, the entire Ming Dynasty, the two of us can be regarded as the number one, I can't arrange a better errand for my brother! What is this called, how do you ask me to go back to see my parents? ”

The prince asked puzzledly: "What can't you see here, your younger brother is not blind or deaf, and he is not missing arms and legs, what can't he do?" Why didn't he think he had a brother-in-law when he was visiting the Qinglou? ”

The crown princess was anxious when she heard this.

"Okay, you Zhu Gaochi, do you still want to go to the kiln? It's really against you! ”

The prince was startled, and quickly explained: "Ai Concubine, what is this for, I just make an analogy, an analogy, you see, during the New Year's holiday, I can't see your brother, I can use his sister and brother-in-law, I remembered, the matter of the Customs Department, you don't have to think about it, if you have to give your brother an errand of the Customs Department, then you might as well tell the old man directly that we don't want this country, let it be given to the second child!" ”

The crown princess was speechless, but the crown princess would not just give up the opportunity to benefit her brother.

"Then if I don't give Zhang Kejian an errand for the Customs Department, can I ask for something else?"

The crown prince took precautions.

"What more do you want? Is it okay for me to give up the crown prince to him? ”

The crown princess glanced at the prince: "What are you talking about, I mean, we don't want errands, can we have a convenience?" ”

The crown prince looked at the crown princess, and he seemed to know what the crown princess was going to say next.

"Do you want the Customs Department to open a back door for Zhang Kejian?"

The crown princess clapped her hands happily.

"That's right! That's it, you see that I take a step back, don't let him have an errand in the Customs Department, you also take a step back, let the Customs Department open a way for my brother, the country has lifted the sea ban, and we are really relatives who also have some benefits, you see, let my brother pay less taxes, let him go overseas to do business, the two of us are shares, he makes money, don't we also get benefits? You can't say no, can you? ”

After hearing this, the prince sneered: "You think this is a concession? If the two of us start this way, will the other royal relatives be able to watch it? No, they also have to find a way to benefit from it, and then the Customs Department will not be in chaos again? Besides, didn't I just tell you? We can't reach in for the Customs Department, let alone us, it's Uncle Twenty, and the old man is also guarding against it. ”

The crown princess is gone.

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, it's not whether you are the prince or not? Is it that the old man has already taken you down and put the second child on top, you are afraid of being embarrassed, you still let the prince of the family call you one day, you can't do anything to your prince? ”

"It's not a question of what you can do or can't do!" The prince stood up: "This is your problem at all, you said that you should choose what customs department you choose, take a step back, the customs department can't choose!" I can't choose anything else! What can you tell him about? Yes? It's not good to read and read, it's too lazy to eat, and the ability on your lips has grown, let me ask you, where did all the money we saved in Beiping go? Yes? You said that if you use it to do business with him, it can be regarded as our shareholding, but as a result, what about the silver I have worked so hard to save for so many years? ”

"If it weren't for Uncle Twenty's money to open the way, the two of us wouldn't even be able to afford a small kitchen by now!"

When it came to the original incident, the crown princess was also dumbfounded.

"Okay, what did you say about the things back then? Didn't I beat him up? It's almost time for you to deflat! The past is in the past. ”

The prince let out a sigh: "Anyway, you don't have to think about the affairs of the Customs Department, but I won't watch him idle all day long and not do business, so doesn't he want to make money?" Then go and learn from Uncle Twenty, it's really not good, so let him simply follow the Jinyi Guard. ”
