When Zhu Yunhuan and his servants appeared at the palace gate carrying large and small bags, Zhu Gui burst out laughing.
"Nephew, what's the matter with you dressing like this?"
Zhu Yunhuan had a good relationship with Zhu Gui, so he did not hide anything and told him directly about the fact that Lu had withheld his monthly salary.
Zhu Gui was also very angry when she heard this, because the monthly allowance for the emperor's grandchildren was pocket money that the emperor saved by living frugally for his grandchildren. How could she, Mrs. Lu, have the nerve to deduct it!
However, Zhu Gui still severely condemned Zhu Yunhuan's behavior of killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred of his own.
"Nephew, you can't do this, you will be laughed at by others!"
"Hurry back and change your clothes. Uncle Thirteen will help you find a way to pay your monthly salary. I promise to get it from the Crown Princess!"
The thing Zhu Yunhuan lacks the most is the "idol burden", he doesn't care about these things.
"Uncle Thirteen, this is a matter between me and Lu, so don't interfere!"
When Zhu Gui saw Zhu Yunhuan saying this, he stopped trying to persuade him. He knew that Zhu Yunhuan had a grudge against the Lu family, otherwise he would not have been swinging on someone else's lap. But in the end, he couldn't help but remind him.
"Be gentle and don't anger your grandfather, or he'll get angry. Tsk tsk..."
When Zhu Yunhuan heard this, his heart tightened. When he thought of the old man's whip, his scalp felt tingling.
"I'm just wearing shabby clothes, I haven't done anything illegal..."
Zhu Gui couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this. If his father wanted to punish someone, he would have plenty of reasons. He didn't care whether you broke the law or not.
"If you don't want to change your clothes, shall we leave now?"
"Walk!"
The two men first went to Zhu Gui's "humble home". Zhu Gui changed his clothes and asked a guard to take Zhu Yunhuan's things to pawn them. Then he led Zhu Yunhuan back on the road.
When King Qin Zhu Chong heard that his nephew had arrived, he greeted him warmly and even ordered the central door to be opened to welcome Zhu Yunhuan.
However, when he saw his nephew dressed so "uncomfortable", he still burst into laughter.
"Nephew, what are you doing? Your Prince's Mansion is not so poor that you don't even have a set of clothes that fit you, right?"
Before Zhu Yunhuan could explain, a carriage drove up to the gate of the Prince of Qin's Mansion and Zhu Yunwen, dressed in elegant clothes, got out of the carriage.
When Prince of Qin Zhu Chong saw Zhu Yunhuan and Zhu Yunwen in the same frame, his face suddenly fell.
Although he coveted the throne, he was still very unhappy when he saw his eldest brother's son being treated so differently.
"Mrs. Lu is pretty good. She raised a concubine's son to be more noble than a legitimate son!"
Zhu Yunwen had just got off the carriage and was about to step forward to greet his uncle when he was stunned when he heard his second uncle's words.
"Why did Second Uncle say that?"
Zhu Chong snorted coldly and pointed at Zhu Yunxun on the side.
"Look at your brother, and then look at yourself, don't you feel ashamed?"
It was then that Zhu Yunwen noticed the huge black caterpillar beside him. Upon closer inspection, he found that it was his third brother!
"Third brother, how can you dress like this?"
"Hurry back and change your clothes, or you will bring shame to our Prince's Mansion!"
Zhu Yunhuan deliberately pretended to be frightened.
"I'm sorry, second brother. I accidentally scratched my clothes today. I really don't have any other clothes to change into, so I can only find last year's clothes and put them on."
"If I embarrass my second brother, I will go back and never go out again..."
"you!"
Zhu Chong's concubine Deng saw that the atmosphere was not right and hurried out to smooth things over.
"Come on, come on, everyone, hurry into the house. What a shame it is to stand at the door!"
As Deng spoke, she walked forward, took Zhu Yunwen's hand, and personally led him to the palace. As they walked, she asked about his well-being and seemed very cordial.
"Yun Wen, is your mother doing well?"
"My mother is fine, but she almost died a few days ago because she missed my father..."
"Yes, auntie heard about this. Your mother has a strong personality, so it's not surprising that she would do such a thing..."
When Zhu Yunhuan saw how intimate the two were, he knew that they had a special relationship.
"Uncle Thirteen, this..."
"That's why I told you to give up that idea as soon as possible."
"Aunt Deng is a close friend of Crown Princess Lu. They have a very good relationship. It will be useless for you to pretend to be poor in front of her."
"oh oh……"
Zhu Yunhuan was slightly disappointed when he heard this, but he still followed everyone into the Prince of Qin's Palace.
As soon as Zhu Yunhuan entered the Prince of Qin's Mansion, he immediately felt that his eyes were not enough. Compared with Zhu Gui's doghouse, the Prince of Qin's Mansion was indeed extremely luxurious. The screen wall at the entrance alone was probably more valuable than Zhu Gui's entire palace.
Zhu Yunhuan followed the crowd around the screen wall, and what came into view were pavilions, towers, rockery and ponds full of Jiangnan style.
He didn't understand it, he just thought it was beautiful. But what impressed him most was the water in the pond, which was so clear that the fish in it seemed to be swimming in the air, which was very magical and interesting.
Zhu Yunhuan followed everyone to the main hall, only to find that it was already full of people. His cheap third uncle was also inside, and was sitting very close to the main seat.
When Zhu Gang saw Deng leading Zhu Yunwen into the hall, an expression of disgust immediately appeared on his face.
His view of Deng and Lu was very simple, that is, a toad looking for a frog and an ugly flower playing with it.
Therefore, Zhu Yunwen also looked down on him, thinking that the child was corrupted by his mother. Not only did he not inherit the prince's benevolence and righteousness, but he was petty everywhere and was calculating and stingy in everything he did.
Relatively speaking, the current Zhu Yunhuan is much more pleasing to the eye. He even dares to disrespect his father's face. He truly has some of his father's demeanor.
Now when Zhu Gang thought about how his elder brother the Crown Prince had made his father so angry that he jumped up and down and cursed at him, he couldn't help laughing out loud.
It can be predicted that in the future, his eldest nephew will definitely take over the banner of the eldest brother, the crown prince. The old man who is angry every day is furious, hahahaha...
Just as Zhu Gang was thinking this, he suddenly saw a black caterpillar squeezing in through the door, and the smile on his face froze instantly.
He looked at Zhu Yunwen, who was wearing tight-fitting clothes, and then at his older nephew, who was wearing clothes that were several sizes too small. He stood up angrily and kicked over the table in front of him.
"What are you still eating? Didn't you see how our eldest nephew was bullied by that bitch Lu?"
"Someone, bring me my sword!"
"If I don't kill that Lu family today, I will not be a human being!"
Just when Zhu Gang was clamoring to kill Lu, Erhu suddenly rushed in with several Jinyiwei.
Erhu first looked around coldly, and when he saw that there were delicious dishes but no drinks on the tables, his expression improved a little.
Gathering to drink during a major funeral is a serious crime, and it would not be an exaggeration to arrest all of them and put them all in the Jinyiwei prison!
However, when he saw Zhu Yunhuan, his face instantly turned dark.
The brothers from Jinyiwei were right, this guy really looks like a caterpillar!
"Excuse me, my Lords. His Majesty has given us a message, telling us to come here and deliver a few words, and to arrest someone!"
When everyone heard the emperor's oral order, they hurriedly stood up from their seats and knelt to receive it.
When Zhu Gang heard his father's order, he dropped his sword with a clang and knelt down with everyone else.
Seeing everyone kneeling, Erhu cleared his throat and spoke.
"You are truly our good sons of the emperor. Your eldest brother has only been buried for a few days, and you actually have the leisure to feast and enjoy yourself!"
"If you don't want to stay in the capital, get out of here as soon as possible, or we'll whip you!"
When the King of Qin heard this, he was so angry that he felt uncomfortable. This was really the tone of the old man, even the tone was the same!
The other princes were also shocked when they heard the order, and they kowtowed and apologized immediately.
After Erhu conveyed Zhu's oral instructions, he no longer paid attention to the princes, but turned to look at Zhu Yunhuan.
"Your Highness, the Third Grandson, the Emperor asked me to take you back!"
"Why?"
"What do you think?"
"I……"
"All right!"
After Zhu Yunhuan left with Erhu with his head hung, the other princes also took the opportunity to say goodbye.
Some princes originally did not want to join in the fun, but were embarrassed to refuse due to the favor of the Qin King and the Grand Secretary.
After hearing the old man's instructions , Zhu Gang's mind instantly became clear and he realized a very serious problem.
Could it be that my eldest nephew is deliberately trying to put on trouble for Mrs. Lu?
The more he thought about it, the more possible it seemed to him. Even if Mrs. Lu was stupid, she would not treat Zhu Yunhuan harshly in public. She would definitely have prepared all the necessary clothes for the New Year and all four seasons.
Now Zhu Yunhuan deliberately dressed like this. It must be that Lu had offended this grandson again, and this grandson was deliberately embarrassing her!
When Zhu Gang thought of this, he became even angrier and wanted to rush out to grab Zhu Yunhuan and give him a good beating.
He got angry just thinking about it. He was already in his thirties and he was almost tricked by this bastard!
On the way back, Zhu Yunhuan kept asking Erhu.
"Uncle Hu, is Grandpa Huang very angry?"
"I'm not really angry, I just broke some blue and white porcelain from the previous dynasty."
"Uncle Hu, Grandpa Huang doesn't know that I opened a bookstore, right?"
"I don't know. I have been keeping this a secret for you!"
When Zhu Yunhuan heard that it was not about the bookstore, he felt relieved and said happily.
"Thank you, Uncle Tiger!"
Erhu waved his hands quickly.
"Your Highness, please don't rush to thank me yet. Instead, think about how to deal with the Emperor. I am just wondering, how did the Crown Princess offend you to make you treat her like this?"
"She deducted my monthly salary!"
“Uh uh…”
Erhu fell silent when this. Is the young master going crazy?
Sanwei Bookstore was right under his nose, and he was very familiar with the business conditions there.
He himself didn't believe it when he told this story. How could a dragon's descendants lose money in business?
Normally, as long as they spread the word, there will be people who will come to your door with money and wouldn't be afraid that you would refuse it.
Unfortunately, the Third Prince was a strange man. In less than twenty days, not only did he not make any money, but he even lost several thousand taels of silver.
Of course, the main thing he had to pay was Prince Yu's money, but the grandson himself didn't pay much...
When Erhu thought about this, he couldn't help but wonder if he should help the young master spread some word so that the generals could show their loyalty and help the Third Prince run the business?
The generals don't have to spend much money. As long as each of them buys a thousand copies, they can help the young master turn losses into profits.
The military generals will definitely be happy about this, but they are afraid that the emperor will be unhappy if he finds out, thinking that they have some intentions against the young master.
The two men quickly arrived at the palace. After Erhu handed the rebellious grandson to Lao Zhu, he hid aside to watch the fun .
Zhu Yunhuan came to Old Zhu reluctantly, and saw Old Zhu's whip on the table. He was so scared that he knelt down with a thud. He knelt down so decisively.
"Grandpa Emperor, I was wrong. I shouldn't have..."
Old Zhu was busy reviewing memorials. When he saw his grandson coming, he quickly pointed to the corner of the hall.
"Go! Go! Go!"
"Go kneel down in the corner. I'll come and deal with you after I finish reviewing the memorials!"
"oh……"
