During the Ming Dynasty, there was already the germ of governance.

In Xiao Han's view, Shen Wansan's generosity in coming out to reward the army and repair the city wall was not just a simple contribution to society.

This move is nothing more than to gain influence in the government and curry favor with Zhu Yuanzhang in order to gain greater social power.

It's a pity that a sycophant was directly slapped on the horse's hooves, who is Zhu Yuanzhang?

Emperor Hongwu, who was born in poverty.

For businessmen, like the family Haoqiang, they have no good impression at all.

Want to pay for running for office?

In other emperors, seeing that the treasury has little money, it may be sold.

But Zhu Yuanzhang here does not exist.

"What?"

"How is that possible?"

"It's just some businessmen, and they still want to lead Daming, what do they think?"

Zhu Biao opened his mouth in shock.

"There's nothing strange about it."

"In fact, the foundation of social operation is a relationship of production, to put it bluntly, whoever can give the people a mouthful of food, the people will listen to whom."

"The imperial court can take the people to eat, the family can also be powerful, and the merchants can have wealth and production and trade, so naturally they can."

"It is precisely because of this that while our court uses them again, we must also be wary of them."

"And under our influence, the tentacles of the merchants have rarely entered the court, the forbidden territory of the original family, isn't it normal for them to greedily want more?"

The corners of Xiao Han's mouth hooked.

"That's... Are we going to suppress them? ”

Zhu Biao said with some uncertainty.

"There's no need."

"Since we have promoted them, it is to let them balance the power of the family in the court."

"So it doesn't make much difference whether they make a group on their own or follow us, does it?"

"Remember, I said that the merchant is the beast of the flood, and you and my brother are the Dayu who controls the water."

Xiao Han smiled confidently.

"Hahaha!"

"That's right, you and my brother are here, even if those businessmen have ideas, they have to serve our Daming."

"In that case, I'll go back first, and we'll see you tomorrow in court."

Zhu Biao laughed.

"What's the hurry, it's hard to go back to sleep so early."

Xiao Han pursed his lips.

"Ahem."

"What are you talking about, boy?"

Zhu Biao coughed dryly.

"Huh?"

"Why is this reaction?"

"Wait, your family won't really win the bid, will you?"

Xiao Han looked at Zhu Biao's expression, and suddenly looked at Zhu Biao suspiciously.

It stands to reason that Zhu Xiongying's birth will have to wait for two years, and Zhu Biao and Chang Qingyun should still be working hard at this time.

But considering the big tonic soup that Xiao Han sent to the past, at this time, it is not impossible.

But the question is, it's only been a month, right?

How can you see this?

"Just yesterday, Qingyun told me that she had a dream in which a child called her mother."

Zhu Biao said.

Xiao Han: ???

"So sloppy?"

Xiao Han was dumbfounded.

"Well, in fact, I found the imperial doctor later, and then the imperial doctor told me that the time is still short and I can't judge, but according to Qingyun's complexion, I can stop for two months and take a look."

"Fengxue, did you say this is telling me that I probably already have a son."

Zhu Biao said.

"Why do I feel that the imperial doctor doesn't want to upset you too much, so that's why I say that?"

The corners of Xiao Han's mouth twitched.

This kid turned out to be very smart, why did he get his IQ cleared.

"Can't it, don't they all say that it's not easy for the imperial doctor to say this kind of thing in general, is it all hinted at like this?"

Zhu Biao scratched his head.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, it's finally come to an end about the Daming industrial technique and the north and south directions, let's call the second, third, fourth, and fifth children over, let's have a barbecue, and let you taste my barbecue skills."

Xiao Han said to Zhu Biao.

"Huh?"

"The third and fourth are calling together, aren't you afraid that they will fight?"

Zhu Biao said to Xiao Han.

"Humph!"

"Can you be of some use, you are their eldest brother, if they can fight in front of you, what are you going to eat?"

"Anyway, I have long been unhappy with these two living treasures, so I just took this opportunity today to treat the two of them well, and I turned against the two of them."

"If you really want to look at each other wrongly, if you can't wait, don't care about anyone, under the noses of both of us, be honest."

Xiao Han snorted.

"Also, it's not a matter for the two of them to go on like this all the time."

"That's okay, let's talk about it in advance, our brothers are drinking, you can't let Tong Zhangshun get involved, I heard that even Lan Yu gave him a drink directly."

Zhu Biao smiled at Xiao Han.

"Fuck off!"

"Am I like that?"

"Remember not to come alone, bring Qingyun too, in case you really win, eat something good during this time."

Xiao Han rolled his eyes.

"You can rest assured, my family must have come, if the child hasn't come out yet, you won't be able to drive away."

The corners of Zhu Biao's mouth hooked.

With Zhu Biao's greeting, not long after, in front of the British Mansion, there was already a figure poked.

The first to come was Zhu Hu.

"Brother, what's wrong?"

"Calling me suddenly, is there something wrong with your body?"

Zhu Hu said to Xiao Han with concern.

"Nothing."

"It's rare to have a quiet time these days, and your eldest brother and I are thinking about getting together with our brothers tonight."

"It's your eldest brother's side, he said that your sister-in-law may have it, and you can take a look at it tonight."

Xiao Han said to Zhu Hu, and his heart was also slightly moved.

Normally, when it comes to gatherings and the like, Zhu Hu usually runs last, or doesn't come at all.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Hu was the first to come today, and he actually thought that he had a physical problem.

"In this way, the person who came didn't make it clear, and it scared me."

"Don't worry, my sister-in-law's affairs are on me, the imperial doctor can't see it accurately, it doesn't mean that I can't see it accurately, I don't dare to say anything else, just our medical skills, there are few stronger ones in the world."

Zhu Hu patted his chest and said.

"Alright, stop bragging."

"No matter how powerful you are, can you still have a powerful imperial doctor?"

Zhu Biao came in from outside and said with a smile.

"Big brother, you look down on people."

"It's not like I haven't talked to the imperial doctor."

"They all said that I was no less young than them, and that I was a medical genius that was rare in a century."

"Otherwise, what qualifications do I have to say that you and my brother will be protected by my eldest brother, and you will not die before I die?"

Zhu Lu straightened his chest.

"Stinky beauty."

"We still have to live on you."

"If you don't do it one day, we will have to be buried together?"

Zhu Biao smiled.

"That's not what I said, if it reaches my father's ears, you have to help me explain if my father beats my eldest brother."

Zhu Hu said immediately.

"Don't worry, there are three people here, if you don't feel comfortable looking for your father, no one will sell you."

Xiao Han said with a smile.

"Yo! It's pretty early. ”

"Huh?"

"Old five?"

"Rare guest!"

Squeak!

In the sound of wheels, Zhu Li walked in from outside the gate of the British Mansion, and couldn't help but be surprised when he saw Zhu Huan.

"Boss, brother, why do you have time to gather brothers today?"

"Didn't we all be busy in the past, and I didn't have time to go to class without touching my feet?"

Zhu Li said with a smile.

Xiao Han couldn't be busy, so he temporarily handed over the matter of class to others, and Zhu Li and the others were overjoyed.

After all, except for Xiao Han, who is at the top of the food chain, who will teach them, and they must not give these Ming princes some face?

How can you really be honest with them?

That's really, class depends on the mood, skipping school to wake up, and don't be too comfortable.

"Looks like you've been not taking your homework very seriously lately."

"It just so happens that I've been idle lately, so why don't I resume teaching you later?"

Xiao Han hooked the corner of Zhu Li's mouth slightly.

"Huh?"

Zhu Li's mouth grew and he was slightly taken aback.

"How?"

"I'm not welcome?"

Xiao Han glanced at Zhu Li.

"Welcome, of course welcome."

"Brother, you don't know, you're not here during this time, I think the tea you want is not fragrant."

"No, I heard the eldest brother say that the brothers gathered today, except for the accident of the fifth brother, was he the first to arrive directly?"

"Isn't my longing for you obvious?"

Zhu Li said to Xiao Han.

"Okay, okay, weird meat, you go wash the meat and prepare the skewers."

Xiao Han rolled his eyes, the third Zhu Li, this guy is sleeker than the second Zhu Rong.

"Okay, brother."

Zhu Li nodded immediately and went to the back kitchen to prepare.

After Zhu Li, Zhu Zhang, Zhu Di and Chang Qingyun also arrived one after another.

When Zhu Li saw Zhu Di's arrival, he couldn't help but look bad for a while, but after being glared at by Xiao Han, he didn't dare to say anything more.

Xiao Han, Chang Qingling, Xu Miaoyun, Chang Qingyun plus the five brothers of the Zhu family, in the British Mansion, gathered nine second-generation members of the Ming Imperial Family.

A group of people work together, and they don't need to get on and off people, and the efficiency is also extremely high.

After a short time, the skewers were served to the table after Xiao Han's roasting.

"It smells so good."

"Brother Fengxue's cooking is really the best, everything is delicious."

Chang Qingling had just eaten a string of eyes, and he couldn't help but stare at Xiao Han's stove.

"I also eat your brother-in-law's baked food, and he doesn't bake it... It's okay, too. ”

Seeing that Xiao Han was roasting vigorously, Zhu Biao volunteered to start roasting, and directly handed the roasted to Chang Qingyun.

Chang Qingyun saw that everyone was gathered around Xiao Han and said.

"Sister, is it really good that you deceive your own sister like this?"

Chang Qingling looked at Chang Qingyun's expression and couldn't help but speak.

"No... Actually, it's really okay, it's just a little worse than the wind and snow. ”

"I just ate it suddenly and didn't react."

Chang Qingyun was debunked by her sister on the spot, but outside, she had to maintain her man to the end no matter what, and she must not embarrass Zhu Biao.

Seeing that Zhu Biao's expression twitched slightly, he immediately picked up a bunch by himself and ate it without believing in evil.

Then, his face changed at that time.
