Two days later.
Rong Zhao took the first edition of the newspaper to meet with the three princes in Fuluxuan.
-- Today, it is necessary not only to discuss the matter of the newspaper, but also to determine the contribution and shares of the newspaper. It was still the three princes who arrived first, and Rong Zhao came in with the newspaper last. The third prince, Pei Yu, subconsciously looked behind her and muttered, "Didn't you eat barbecue today?"
Rong Zhao smiled when he heard this: "If the three highnesses want to eat, they can be delivered immediately." She immediately turned around and commanded.
In less than a stick of incense, the cook came in with the waiter carrying something, and it was still the terrace of Fu Lu Xuan, which was the same scene as that night, except that it was daytime.
The weather is getting colder and colder, and although there is no snow today, it is still cold.
The group was eating barbecue around the stove and discussing the newspaper by the way, which was also very lively.
Pei Zheng ate some meat and felt a little greasy, so he picked up the vegetarian dish again, and it was not bad to taste it. He ate and looked at Rong Zhao at the same time: "I have no objection to the newspaper, you can do what you want, how much investment is needed?"
Pei Yu sneered in his heart when he thought of the second child blaming himself. - Do you show support for Rong Zhao and want to win people? It's a pity that the other party already knows that you are the real mastermind behind the scenes!
Rong Zhao is now his own person, and Pei Yu also said: "The newspaper is planned by you, we don't know about it, give it to you, just don't let me down."
Of course, Pei Yu was not very enthusiastic, he was worried about being discovered by the other two - Rong Zhao was actually his own person.
Pei Qin's attitude was the same as yesterday, and he smiled at Rong Zhao: "Ah Zhao just decides." The charm and gentleness in the eyes have a close attitude.
On the premise that Rong Zhao is his own person, everything is going very well.
Rong Zhao nodded with satisfaction, she took out the "Share IOU" that had been written, and asked for advice: "Three Your Highnesses, this is the share IOU I have written, and we will each contribute 5,000 taels, a total of 20,000 taels to run this newspaper, how about it?"
The upfront cost of the newspaper is not high, it has not yet been rolled out, and naturally it will not scare the three princes with a staggering number. The most difficult thing for a newspaper today is the interpersonal relationship and the background of the imperial court.
The participation of the three princes is already safe.
Pei Zheng nodded: "Yes."
Pei Yu has no opinion
Pei Qin agreed.
Rong Zhao pointed to the vacant position below that had not yet been filled, and said: "There are a total of 100 shares, so it will be divided according to 25 shares per person?"
She didn't want to do that. However, she wants to say this first, and give them a means to win people's hearts
opportunities.
Pei Zheng ate the barbecue and shook his head: "Just follow Fu Lu Xuan, you have an extra share and have control." This is what he promised Rong Zhao last night.
He also knew that Rong Zhao had also met with the other two for this matter, thinking that they thought they could win over Rong Zhao and would cooperate. Sure enough, the third prince Pei Yu nodded: "Agreed, you can take two more shares."
- The second child has already proposed that Rong Zhao have more shares, and now he proposes that Rong Zhao take two more shares, and the second and fifth children will probably only think that they are deliberately trying to win over Rong Zhao and will not think much about it.
In fact, Rong Zhao is his person, and it is also good for him to occupy more shares.
Pei Yu's voice landed, Pei Qin's chin raised, as if he was not to be outdone, "Then we will have twenty-two shares and thirty-four shares for Ah Zhao, how about it?"
Pei Zheng: "Yes."
Pei Yu: "Why not."
- Anyway, Rong Zhao is actually his own person.
Besides, they didn't want the other two to interfere with the newspaper. The important thing for a newspaper is not how much money it makes, as long as the right to speak is in the hands of its own people, the number of shares is not so important.
Under the "humility" of the three people, the newspaper soon reached a cooperation, one person contributed 5,000 taels, Rong Zhao held the most shares, 34, and the others each 2
2。
Rong Zhao was in a good mood, and he signed and sealed with them with a smile, and then put it away one by one. "Come on, come on, how can you eat meat without drinking? Cheers. Rong Zhao raised his glass.
The other three also raised their hands, raised their glasses, and touched her lightly. The same place, the same thing, but a completely different attitude, are all satisfied.
After the end of the day.
Rong Zhao was about to go back to his home to make preparations for the opening of the newspaper, and he had just talked with the three princes about the newspaper in addition to the distribution of shares
The three seem to be very supportive, but they are not very proactive.
This is understandable, they support it because they feel that Rong Zhao is their own person, and it is also beneficial for them to run a newspaper, but in the end, they are afraid of it, and it is impossible to completely fall to one side of them.
It's about working with two other hated brothers, and it's a bit of a rejection after all.
Moreover, the cooperation of the three princes to open a newspaper may make Emperor Yongming unhappy. It will also make their henchmen uneasy because of "cooperation", and the situation may undergo some unpredictable changes.
Therefore, they are not active.
Rong Zhao twisted his eyebrows slightly.
Xie Hong was a little puzzled: "Since they have expressed their support
We can do it. "
Rong Zhao shook his head: "It's never a trouble for the newspaper to run, the trouble is after the newspaper, once it starts to report, those unhappy dignitaries will definitely do something to obstruct it."
A group can make a big fuss for high-ranking dignitaries, not to mention newspapers? The movement will only get bigger, and the trouble will only increase.
When Xie Hong heard this, he immediately frowned, and said eagerly: "Then how is this good? Will it make the newspaper unable to operate?"
Rong Zhao pondered for a moment and nodded: "There is this possibility, if the emperor is unhappy, the ministers oppose it, and the three princes can't really join forces, this newspaper may be closed if it is opened."
The three princes insisted, and Emperor Yongming and the courtiers would not stop him. And if the three princes were not particularly insistent, they would have given others the possibility to block them.
Xie Hong frowned.
Rong Zhao was calm: "Let's think of a way again, we have to make them really willing to join hands to let the newspaper run it......"
After a pause, she sighed: "If there is another force that can come out and make the three of them jealous, they can join forces temporarily, but unfortunately, now the three of them are pinching hard."
When Xie Hong heard this, his face became more and more worried.
At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped.
Xie Hong opened the curtain in surprise, just in time to hear a voice outside: "Is it Rong Shizi?" - Guan Mengsheng's voice.
Rong Zhao looked out along the opened curtain, not only Guan Mengsheng was alone, but Pei Guanshan, Pei Chengjue, and the Zhang brothers and others walked out of the teahouse one after another.
Yo, a gathering of the second generation.
The next moment, Pei Chengjue smiled and said, "Ah Zhao, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you want to get together?"
Rong Zhao raised his voice and said: "I am extremely happy." After speaking, she got out of the carriage and walked to the door of the teahouse.
After not seeing each other for many days, Rong Zhao had just experienced the catastrophe of life and death, they thought that Rong Zhao would describe embarrassment, but they didn't expect that the person who got off the carriage was still dazzling, and people couldn't take their eyes off it.
She is wearing a green shirt today, with a slight collar, which makes people stand out.
Although he is not tall, his momentum is amazing, and his face is even more shining, smiling at them slightly, and his phoenix eyes are crooked, and it suddenly becomes the most beautiful scene in this winter snow.
The few people who greeted the door were slightly stunned.
Rong Zhao walked in front of them, and everyone came back to their senses in a trance. Guan Mengsheng muttered: "Rong Shizi is getting better and better-looking, I don't know which girl can be lucky enough to ......"
Pei Chengjue smiled and stretched out his hand to hold Rong Zhao,
"It's not easy to see you, how about it? I heard that you were injured, are you healed?"
He rarely had serious eyes and a concerned tone.
Rong Zhao smiled: "You're welcome, I'm fine."
Pei Guanshan glanced at the hundred guards standing not far away, and the corners of his mouth twitched, "It is said that Rong Shizi was frightened and hired a hundred guards with a lot of money, and it is true."
Rong Zhao was not guilty, and admitted calmly: "Yes, I'm not afraid."
Pei Guanshan: "......"
Several people had already walked into the teahouse while they were talking.
Zhang Changyan and Zhang Changxing were squeezed behind, and Zhang Changxing lowered his voice: "Rong Zhao really has nothing to do, and my father is disappointed." Rong Zhao had an accident, and Prime Minister Zhang Cheng was very happy. Later, when he heard that Rong Zhao was fine, Prime Minister Zhang Cheng was a little unhappy, but now it seems that Rong Zhao is intact and has nothing to do.
Of course, the Zhang brothers didn't want Rong Zhao to have an accident.
Zhang Changyan didn't speak.
Zhang Changxing looked at him, but found that he was staring ahead in a daze, his eyes empty. He bumped into Zhang San and frowned: "Third child, what are you thinking?"
Zhang San muttered: "Originally, I followed him, but now I can't squeeze next to him...... this "he" obviously refers to Rong Zhao.
At the beginning, it was Zhang San who followed Rong Zhao in and out, but now that Rong Zhao is becoming more and more popular, he can't squeeze around people. From Rong Zhao getting out of the car to now, neither of them has said a word.
Zhang Er: "???" He didn't understand, what was Zhang San thinking?
Before he could speak, Zhang Changyan had already subconsciously rushed over and squeezed behind Rong Zhao. At this time they entered the private room.
Rong Zhao sat down, Pei Chengjue and Pei Guanshan were left and right, and Zhang Changyan sat opposite Rong Zhao, facing Rong Zhao. Rong Zhao nodded to him, said hello, and went to talk to the two people around him again.
Zhang Changyan gritted his teeth: "I heard that you were assassinated, now it seems that you are alive and well, and there is not much of a matter, and you are still making such a big move, Gu 100 guards, do you know what the people of the capital say about you?"
- When he said this, he was not pleased.
When he heard that Rong Zhao had an accident before, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, not for Fuluzhuang or for Rong Zhao, but he was really worried all day long.
Later, when I heard that Rong Zhao was back, I almost took someone to Anqing Mansion to find Rong Zhao. It was Zhang Er who stopped him.
Obviously worried, but
That's how hard it is to speak.
Pei Chengjue frowned.
Pei Guanshan looked at him expressionlessly: "Zhang Sangongzi's words are a bit rude, and he seems to be very disappointed that Rong Shizi didn't have an accident? Isn't it a killer from your Zhang family?"
Zhang Changyan almost jumped up and raised his voice: "Nonsense!"
He still had to argue, but Rong Zhao chuckled: "Say I'm cowardly as a mouse? Haha, Rong Zhao is indeed timid. ”
After speaking, she raised her hand to salute, and she was very polite: "I haven't seen you for many days, Third Brother Zhang is still so energetic, which really makes Rong Zhao happy."
As soon as she said this, she couldn't say anything □□, she pursed her lips, but her eyes stared at her tightly.
Rong Zhao: "I was able to escape death, but I was only able to recover from my injuries for a long time, and I also broke a coachman, and the killer that night really almost killed me."
For some reason, Zhang San suddenly thought of the bloody scene where Rong Zhao was assassinated by someone in his mind.
He got angry again, gritted his teeth and scolded: "In broad daylight, Lang Lang Qiankun, there is really no royal law, why haven't you found the murderer yet, Guan Mengsheng, what is your father doing?"
Guan Mengsheng didn't expect to pull himself, and immediately refuted:
; Of course, this thing is not so easy to check, if you have the ability, you will check?
Zhang Changyan: "I'm not Shaoqing of Dali Temple!"
Guan Mengsheng: "Then don't point fingers."
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Zhang Er went to stop Zhang San, and the others went to stop Guan Mengsheng, Pei Guansheng and Pei Chengjue did not move like a mountain.
Rong Zhao received this scene in his eyes, and said in his heart, this Zhang San still cares about her. Although it may be that he cares about his money.
Rong Zhao showed a smile towards the two, and his voice was gentle: "I know that Zhang Sangongzi cares about me, and Guan Gongzi also cares about me, don't quarrel about this, everyone drink tea quickly."
She spoke, and the two of them eased up a little and sat down.
Pei Chengjue picked up the teacup and smiled lazily: "It's good that Ah Zhao comes back alive."
His voice changed, and he whispered tentatively: I heard that Ah Zhao has met the three princes twice in a row recently, but what is the matter?
Stopping Rong Zhao was not just a concern, but obviously to inquire about the news.
Seeing the three princes at one time, I don't know how many people in Beijing pricked up their ears and waited for news.
Rong Zhao played with the lid of the cup with his fingers and smiled when he heard this. She didn't hide it, and she was light: "I want to partner with the three princes to do business."
All:??
All the people present were shocked.
That's a lot of information!
Rong Zhao's business has actually reached the level of cooperation with the prince? And it's three princes together.
What is the situation in the court now, can these second generations present still know? Even many people have a supportive prince in their family, and their parents don't have much contact with each other on weekdays.
It can be seen how fierce the battle for succession is now.
The three princes are now busy pulling each other's backs, and it is difficult to do one thing together, let alone do business together.
——The three of them are in partnership, are they sure that they will not tear each other down internally, and finally lead to a yellow business?
What kind of business can gather the three princes?
The crowd was amazed.
Pei Guanshan, Pei Chengjue and the Zhang brothers were even more surprised.
They have a high status, more information in their homes, and more guesses.
For example, the assassination of Rong Zhao this time is likely to have been done by one of the three princes, and they all know the news. Including Zhang Changxing and Zhang Changyan.
They just weren't sure which prince was the one who did it.
In this case, Rong Zhao can still cooperate with the prince in business? It's weird.
Zhang Changxing hurriedly asked: "Rong Shizi, what kind of business are you cooperating with the three princes?"
Hearing this, Rong Zhao smiled mysteriously: Keep it secret for the time being, and everyone will know soon.
Everyone looked at each other, and became more and more silent. This Rong Shizi is really capable, and he can pull the three princes to work together.
Even Pei Chengjue and Pei Guanshan can't think of what kind of business can impress the three princes?
But—
The business that brought the three princes together, Rong Zhao is sure that he can hold it? Pei Guanshan glanced at her deeply and reminded sincerely: "The status of the three princes is precious, and the situation between the DPRK and China is complicated, so you should be careful."
Rong Zhao understood that he was reminding himself not to be strangled by the battle for succession. When the three princes are involved, it seems that it is easy to get involved in the succession, bloody calculations.
She smiled and nodded.
Guan Mengsheng scratched his head and looked at Rong Zhao with blank eyes: I'm really curious about what kind of business you are doing, do you have a big influence on our group?
"You'll know when the time comes."
Rong Zhao hung his appetite and blinked: "I haven't paid attention to the affairs of Jingzhong for many days
, brothers, can you tell Rong Zhao what happened in Beijing recently?
She opened her mouth, but the people present were still quite face-saving, and quickly picked up some things and told her.
Rong Zhao listened very carefully, and said a few words from time to time, which made the atmosphere more enthusiastic and more unscrupulous, so that many people took out some embarrassing things.
Rong Zhao listened with sparkling eyes, and was an excellent listener.
As for how they felt when they read the news in the newspapers in a few days...... Then I don't know.
After chatting for a while, Rong Zhao saw that the time was about the same, raised the teacup again, and smiled gently: "Thank you brothers for caring about Rong Zhao, Rong Zhao invited you for today's tea money."
Nowadays, these families are very short of money.
Especially when they are busy with the group, they are always easy to get excited because of the praise of the people, or the sad faces of the peasants and soften their hearts, which leads to the money being put in.
As a result, there is no one to entertain them at their meetings today. It's all one person who turns in some parts, which also causes their chances of getting together to plummet.
If you don't have anything to say, you don't bother to spend money.
It's not cheap for them to go to a teahouse either.
It is precisely because of Rong Zhao that we are gathered together today. failed to stop Rong Zhao, they were also going to invite Rong Zhao to come.
Now that she is treating, doesn't it save them a lot of money for tea? It's not expensive, but it adds up.
You must know that except for the Zhang brothers, everyone else present is a shareholder of Tuantuan, and they are not people who don't take a little money in their eyes. Don't talk about small money, it's just a penny or two, they also care!
The group dispersed.
Zhang Changyan and Zhang Changxing were sandwiched in the crowd, listening to everyone's praise of Rong Zhao-
"Rong Shizi is really Kang." But not, atmospheric.
"I just like to deal with Rong Shizi, refreshing." "In the future, we will also strongly support Rong Shizi's business." Don't pay for the kind of thing.
Zhang Changxing also said to Zhang Changyan: "I saved money for tea again, Rong Zhao is quite generous." He was very satisfied.
Zhang Changyan nodded.
He had a smile on his face and was happy to save money.
But smiling and laughing, he suddenly paused, and suddenly reacted -
Rong Zhao is so rich, he can hire a hundred guards, and thanking them is just a few cups of tea, why are they so happy? Didn't you save much money? It's just the price of a cup of tea!
Rong Zhao obviously has Fu Luxuan, if you really thank him
We care, can't we invite them to Fuluxuan for a meal?! Zhang Changyan thought of "his own poverty", and then thought of "Rong Zhao's wealth", who was also a shareholder, and immediately gritted his teeth in anger.
INTERVIEWER Why is the difference so big?
He turned his head to look at the people around him, all of them were bought by a cup of tea, and the stars held Rong Zhao like the moon. Zhang San scolded in a low voice: "A group of poor ghosts."
Aren't you a poor ghost? Who cared about this tea money before? You have to rush to check out when you eat.
In the past, he was the only one who rubbed pastries, and he could eat a lot of them every time, but now everyone has begun to rub pastries and eat all the pastries that are given
Not full.
Zhang San: "Damn!"
- He has 40% of the shares of Fuluzhuang, but he only has a few copper plates in his pocket. - So is he poor or rich?
Zhang San was entangled in this "Schrödinger's poverty".
Pei Guanshan and Pei Chengjue didn't care about this, they glanced at each other, and they both saw the solemnity in each other's eyes. What kind of business is it? Why can you let the three princes cooperate? Is it really not going to happen?
After returning to the Anqing Palace, Rong Zhao was also thinking about the newspaper.
Now that the three princes have agreed to cooperate, the newspaper wants to develop smoothly, but it is for them to bother sincerely, especially the emperor and courtiers.
If the three princes don't stand up together, she can't stand it herself.
But the question is -
Now how do you get them to really cooperate?
Rong Zhao thought about it and prepared to visit the three princes again on the second day and lobby one or two, she believed that she could convince them.
However, on the second day, before she went out, a very important news instantly spread throughout the government and the opposition. Pei Huaibei, the son of the first prince, asked for a decree and wanted to go to the imperial tomb to guard the spirit of the first prince.
This is a superficial message. As soon as Rong Zhao inquired, he immediately knew more details.
The first prince's birthday is coming, the emperor has to go to the Taibei Temple every year to incense, see some monks, recently the Buddhist monk Master Xuanwu entered the palace, said that it was the soul of the prince restless.
Emperor Yongming immediately decided that this year's birthday of the first prince would be to do a ritual in Taibei Temple.
It's been eighteen years, and Emperor Yongming still remembers the first prince every year... The people of Beijing couldn't help but sigh.
At the same time, Pei Huaibei, the son of the former prince, who almost disappeared from the sight of everyone in Beijing, wrote an excerpt from the Dabei Temple - he dreamed of the former prince in the book, he knew that he was ominous, and he was willing to go to the imperial tomb to guard the spirit of the former prince.
The son of the former prince who suddenly appeared, what he asked for was almost equivalent to cutting off his own life.
br /> guarding the imperial mausoleum, suffering terribly and with no way out. Pei Huaibei didn't remember him in Taibei Temple, and if he went to guard the emperor's mausoleum, it would be equivalent to death, and there would never be news of him again.
Everyone was shocked.
Surprisingly, the emperor did not agree. On the contrary, there was gossip - Emperor Yongming missed the first prince and wanted to take Pei Huaibei, the son of the first prince, back to the palace.
As soon as the news came out, the government and the opposition shook.
The status of the first prince is unusual, especially for many old ministers, the first prince is the emperor to assist in the future.
Rong Ping still thinks about the first prince, not to mention many ministers in the court, and also remembers the heroic appearance of the first prince. Many of the former prince's subordinates have left, and the rest are loyal people, so they will naturally remember more.
And for the prince, a son who symbolizes "ominous", they naturally have a lot of speculation.
Now that the seizure of the heir is becoming more and more intense, the identity of the first prince is different, and Pei Huaibei is the eldest grandson of the emperor, no one knows how much impact it will have on the form of the court.
When Rong Zhao heard the news, he immediately got up from the chair, slapped his palms, and smiled: "God really helps me."
Rong Ping looked at her, he also has a high degree of political sensitivity, and naturally knows that in politics, any small thing can lead to huge consequences.
Not to mention the son of the first prince and the eldest grandson of the emperor.
This is no small feat!
If the first prince did not die, Pei Huaibei would be the first heir.
Such a sudden appearance of a figure will definitely change the minds of the three princes, and it may also change the situation between the DPRK and China and cause turmoil. Rong Ping looked serious and asked, "Do you still want to go to the Three Princes' Mansion?" Rong Zhao smiled: "Don't go, wait for them to find me."
Rong Ping's expression was complicated.
Is this even God helping Rong Zhao? Otherwise, how could the son of the former prince, who had not moved for eighteen years, come out at such a critical time?
Sure enough, that night. The three princes sent news at the same time -
The matter of the newspaper can be prepared as soon as possible and opened as soon as possible.
The author has something to say:
Zhang San: Whether I am poor or not, this is a question.
Kyochu Shijiako: That's a good question!
