Chapter 331 Selling National Treasures
After a simple inspection, Zhu Youcheng's carriage drove directly into the inner courtyard of the palace.
Zhu Youcheng and King Xin threw down the carriage and went directly to pay homage to Emperor Aoki.
Because it was in the inner courtyard of the palace, Zhu Youcheng and King Xin did not leave anyone to guard the carriage.
The inner courtyard of the palace is the safest place. If a theft occurs, isn’t that a very funny thing?
However, things are always exceptional.
Look, a small black shadow climbed onto the carriage, quietly opened the car door, and slipped in.
The carriage was closed with doors and windows, and it was very dark inside and couldn't see clearly.
The little black shadow struggled to carry something out and took it outside to see.
Alas, this little thief is too bold. He actually counts the stolen goods in broad daylight, and is not afraid of being discovered.
Suddenly, the black shadow screamed, the thing fell to the ground, and it was smashed with a "slam". The liquid inside flowed all over the ground, and the smell of wine was swaying.
It turned out that the thing she carried out was the snake wine made by Zhu Youcheng.
Emperor Tianqi rushed out of the hall with a quick step and shouted, "Which bastard dares to bully my baby daughter? Don't you want to live?"
Zhu Youcheng and Wang Xin did not understand why, so they followed closely.
Emperor Tianqi's daughter is Princess Huaining Zhu Shuyuan, who is now three years old. She is not only the treasure of Emperor Tianqi, but also the favorite niece of Zhu Youcheng and King Xin.
Seeing Emperor Apocalypse come out, the little black shadow pounced on his arms, pointed to the ground and cried, "That...what is that? It's so scary."
There was a broken glass bottle on the ground and a black snake on the broken glass.
The snake has no head and has been blew into the stomach. There is nothing but a green ball in its belly. The green ball is snake gallbladder. Staying behind can enhance the efficacy of the medicine.
Emperor Tianqi was furious and asked, "Who got this... Snake - Brother Cheng, this should be a snake, and he also used it to scare my daughter?"
There are very few snakes in Beijing, and Emperor Tianqi lives in the deep palace. Where have you seen any snakes?
However, Emperor Aoki is really smart. Through the introduction in the book and his own inference, he judged that this was a snake.
Zhu Youcheng was a little embarrassed. He got this snake, and it was more than one. There were still many in the carriage.
Zhu Youcheng was inconvenient to answer, picked up Princess Huaining and said to her: "The snake was brought by uncle and was ready to give it to the emperor for nourishing the body. Unexpectedly, he accidentally scared the baby. Tell me, what do you want uncle to compensate you? Is it a one-day trip to the children's playground, or something else?"
Princess Huaining laughed "hee" and said in a slight voice: "Children's playground, my father will take me there, and you don't need to compensate you. Just compensate me... and... something like Abao."
"Abao?" Zhu Youcheng looked at Emperor Aoqi in confusion.
Emperor Tianqi smiled and said, "Abao is the ferret you gave her. She named her. Speaking of which, it's all because of the ferret you gave her. Now the little baby is Abao put in the middle. The father and mother put it on both sides."
Princess Huaining pouted and said, "The godfather is also put in the middle."
King Xin asked jokingly, "Then, uncle, where are you going to put it?"
"Beside the father and mother - the side outside."
King Xin pouted and said, "Brother Cheng is so nice, both civil and military. He is handsome and liked by children. Why did he get all the good things in the world?"
Emperor Tianqi ignored King Xin's complaints and said to his daughter: "This time I can stand on the side of the little baby. If Brother Cheng doesn't give her a cute thing like Abao, I will punish you - whoever lets you give you good things first."
Zhu Youcheng shouted: "The emperor is not accusing a good person. I think of you first if you have any good things. Look, as soon as I arrive in the capital, I rush to give you a gift before I can rest..."
Emperor Tianqi did not speak. He pointed at Zhu Youcheng's clothes.
King Xin understood the truth, so he opened the car door, pointed inside, and said, "There are clothes, right in the car. Brother Cheng and I not only prepared the clothes of the emperor's brother and sister-in-law, but also the clothes of the imperial concubine and the empress dowager. But we don't know if you like this kind of clothes, so we did not use yellow silk, nor did we embroider dragons, phoenixes or other things on it, it is considered casual clothes."
Emperor Tianqi was amused and smiled and said, "It seems that I have punished Brother Cheng wrongly, but it doesn't matter, it's just a salary."
When Zhu Youcheng heard the word "salary fine", he became a little numb. Since Emperor Tianqi ascended the throne, he still didn't know how many times he had been fined.
However, no salary penalty has any impact on him. First, Zhu Youcheng never relied on his salary to make a living. Just the output of the children's park and its affiliated institutions could make him a stable wealthy family. With the toll roads, the money was gone. Second, Zhu Youcheng received double salary every month, one was the salary of the princes issued by the clan's government, and the other was the salary of the official who was paid by the Ministry of Personnel.
It is a secret that the Zongren Mansion paid Zhu Youcheng the salary of the prince. Apart from the parties involved, few people know it. As long as Emperor Tianqi does not mention it, who dares to stop his salary? And the Ministry of Personnel cannot withstand the number of officials, so if he stops this, he will just get that. Anyway, the Ming Dynasty stipulated that no matter how many part-time jobs an official has, he can only receive one salary.
Princess Huaining refused to support herself and pulled the corner of Emperor Tianqi's clothes.
Emperor Tianqi looked at Princess Huaining and said helplessly: "I have passed this level, but you should solve it yourself for Princess Huaining."
Zhu Youcheng's eyes rolled and had an idea. He said, "I can't find such a baby as Abao. However, I heard that there is an animal called Iron Eating Beast in Sichuan. It looks like a bear, but its hair is white, and its eyes are dark circles, as if it hasn't been sleeping enough. His hands and feet are also black, which is very cute."
In order to protect himself, Zhu Youcheng shamelessly betrayed the national treasure of later generations, the Panda.
Princess Huaining clapped her hands and laughed, but Emperor Tianqi was a little worried: "Iron-eating beast? Like a bear? Are such beasts suitable for princesses to play with? Brother Cheng, Huaining is your goddaughter, you can't harm her."
"How can it be? Although the iron-eating beast looks like a bear, it is not a bear. He has a gentle personality and only eats bamboo. However, wild beasts are always a bit wild. We can give a princess an iron-eating beast that has not grown up. In this way, the iron-eating beast will be more obedient than a cat."
Princess Huaining stretched out her hand.
Zhu Youcheng kissed her hand and said, "Iron Eating Beast is in Sichuan. How can I take it out now? But don't worry, I immediately rushed to ask Zhu Xieyuan to help me find an Iron Eating Beast. Then, in three or four months, the Iron Eating Beast can also arrive in Beijing."
Princess Huaining nodded obediently.
Zhu Youcheng immediately turned around and ordered a guard, asking him to rush to Sichuan at 800 miles, and asked Zhu Xieyuan to help him get an iron-eating beast no matter what.
After giving the order, Zhu Youcheng put Princess Huaining down, touched her little head, and asked her to go and play.
Emperor Tianqi turned out of the hall at this time, and had already changed into Hanfu and summer clothes, with a refreshing expression on his face.
It turned out that when Emperor Tianqi, who had been hot enough, learned that Zhu Youcheng had prepared clothes for him, could not bear it? Without waiting for Zhu Youcheng to get the clothes, he got into the car and went to the room to change his clothes.
Alas, it is true that there is a father who is like a daughter. If the daughter gets into the car and steals the gifts, can't she wait?
Emperor Tianqi said with a smile: "Brother Cheng, did you design this clothes? You are really a versatile talent in civil and military affairs, with excellent articles and great military achievements. You are actually a good tailor."
Zhu Youcheng smiled and said, "This dress is not my only credit. The two girls Ke Qingqing and Ma Yunniang also made an indelible contribution."
Emperor Tianqi recalled: "Ke Qingqing is Kebaba's niece. Is it the little girl who has been hooking up with you since she was a child and is sticky?"
Zhu Youcheng blushed and protested: "It's not as disgusting as you said. We are childhood sweethearts."
Emperor Tianqi ignored Zhu Youcheng's protest and continued: "Is Ma Yunniang Qin Liangyu's daughter? Is your fiancée you took on the battlefield?"
Zhu Youcheng nodded with a red face.
Emperor Tianqi turned to King Xin and asked, "Are you very strange? Brother Cheng's two memorials, one said that they wanted to rehabilitate Qin Liangyu's husband General Ma Qiancheng. I immediately replied that the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel should go and handle it together; the other was a private matter. Brother Cheng said that he wanted to marry Ma Yunniang, but I stayed there but didn't send it?"
King Xin nodded. This matter was planned by him. How could he not care about subsequent development?
Emperor Tianqi said in a tone of regret: "You two, do you know that it is a serious matter to accept your wife at the last battle? You even dare to submit a memorial to ask for gratitude and reward. If the censor finds out, I am afraid that you two will not be impeached?"
King Xin asked in frustration: "Brother Nacheng and Ma Yunniang's marriage..."
"In principle, it is not allowed. But Chengdi defeated three enemies in the southwest, eliminating the worries for the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, the plan to change land and return to the land is operational. If successful, there will be no war in the southwest. Chengdi has such a contribution, so I have to open the net, but I will not be as an example. Don't be proud of it, four years or four years later, you can only allow you to get married. Now, just watch it."
The ups and downs of life came too quickly, and Zhu Youcheng didn't react at once and didn't have time to thank him. (To be continued)
