After leaving Tian Mansion, Zhu Yinglong took a deep breath. He originally planned to open the four stores at the end of June, but now he was forced to postpone the opening by King Zhu Gongye of Zhou. Zhu Yinglong had never believed in his father-in-law, nor was he looking at him with erotic eyes, nor was he a businessman. From this matter, he saw that Tian Hongyu was an absolute speculator. Of course, businessmen who would speculate were all smart people. Zhu Yinglong would appreciate it, but he used his daughter as a bargaining chip for speculation.

This is true from himself to King Zhu Gongye of Zhou. It is true that he is not wrong to do this, because this is the society of this era. If a businessman has no power to protect his wealth, no matter how much money he earns, it may be a wealth created for others. Collusion between officials and businessmen can not only ensure that wealth is not embezzled by others, but also gain more wealth under power. This is what they believe is pleased with both sides, and have both honor and wealth. This is Tian Hongyu's thought in his bones, so he feels disgusted, and not just a little bit.

Xiong Tingbi had already transferred two carriages from the royal palace. Xiong Hu and Tian Shulan were already on the carriage in front. Zhu Yinglong thought for a while and walked towards the carriage behind. But he didn't know that his behavior completely fell into Tian Shulan's eyes on the carriage in front. Two crystal tears fell, and his heart was extremely sad.

"Sister Li Niang!" Tian Shulan rubbed her body and threw herself into Xiong Hu's arms and kept sobbing.

"Silly sister, why are you doing this?" Xiong Hu couldn't help but feel sorry for her, thinking that she was not worried about that person, but that person didn't take him seriously at all. Why are she doing this?

"Prince, where are we going?" asked Shi Kefa when the three got on the carriage.

"The Palace."

Two carriages drove into Zhu Yinglong's Xinwang Mansion in Kaifeng City, one after another, and settled Tian Shulan. Zhu Yinglong called Shi Kefa and the other three into his study in the palace, and told Wang Chengen not to let anyone come and disturb him. He would have to wait until he discussed the matter.

Zhu Gongye had never been so humiliated. If the other party was not as good as his title, he would probably have become a mass of mud and sand in the Yellow River at this time.

Zhu Gongzi scolded Zhu Youjian all the way, and when he returned to the palace, he felt dry mouth. Zhu Biao observed his words and expressions, and hurriedly brought a cup of tea and handed it over. He knew that the cup of tea had just been brewed and was so hot that Zhu Gongzi didn't check it. He drank it in big gulp, screamed, and a mouthful of hot hot tea sprayed on Zhu Biao's face, which made him scream like a pig.

Zhu Gongyu was still angry and wanted to drink a bite of herbal tea, but his subordinates actually brought him a bowl of hot hot tea. He was furious and slapped all his anger on Zhu Biao, slapped Zhu Biao with his hand: "You dog slave, you don't forget to lose my face today. You actually gave me such a cup of hot tea. Do you want to burn me to death!"

Zhu Biao didn't understand what was going on, and then he was kicked to the ground. The servants had never seen his master get such a big temper. They all hid far away, fearing that the fish in the pond would cause harm. Especially the maid who had just made tea, was even more frightened, afraid that the master would pursue her. She stood aside with nervousness and didn't dare to let out, and her delicate body trembled.

Zhu Biao, who fell to the ground, realized that he had become the prince's punching bag, not targeting him. He hurriedly wiped off the tea leaves on his face, got up and knelt at Zhu Gongye's feet and said, "Your Majesty, you should be damned, you shouldn't make the prince angry, you shouldn't lose your face!" Then he started working with both hands and slapped himself in the face. After more than a dozen crisp slaps, his cheeks, which were originally scalded and red, were already swollen and tall.

The anger was out and the fire broke out. Zhu Gongye calmed down. When he saw Zhu Biao, whose cheeks were swollen like steamed buns, his anger subsided a lot and said, "Get up, go to the account room to get ten taels of silver."

When Zhu Biao heard this, he was immediately happy and said, "Thank you for the reward of the prince!"

Zhu Gongye was not very annoyed and waved his hand and said, "Go down."

Zhu Biao got up happily and prepared to receive the reward. What was the grievance just now in front of Yinzi? Isn’t this slave just to relieve his master? He was called by Zhu Gong before he even reached the door.

"return!"

Zhu Biao hurriedly returned, walked to Zhu Gongzi and said respectfully: "Prince, what else do you have to ask San'er to do?"

Zhu Gongyi signaled him to come over, and Zhu Biao hurriedly touched his ear. Zhu Gongyi whispered a few words in his ear, and Zhu Biao nodded frequently.

"Go!"

"Prince, don't worry, you know that Zhu Biao is doing things." Zhu Biao continued to show joy.

"Zhu Youjian, wait, I want you to look good!" The smile on Zhu Gongye's face suddenly twisted, the fat flesh trembled, and his smile was a bit ferocious.

At the same time, Zhu Yinglong convened Shi Kefa in the study of the royal palace, Xiong Tingbi and Xiong Hu discussed how to deal with the Zhou king's attack.

"Li Niang, how is Shulan?" Zhu Yinglong asked Xiong Hu the first sentence he said.

Xiong Hu replied without any expression on his face: "Sister Shulan is very good, and her emotions are stable for the time being."

"That's good, Li Niang, please spend more time with her." Zhu Yinglong temporarily abandoned his children's affair and entered the topic, "I have a feeling that we are in a big conspiracy."

Shi Kefa contacted Zhu Yinglong the most and understood Zhu Yinglong’s thoughts best, and said, “What the prince means is that someone deliberately provoked the opposition between us and the King of Zhou?”

"I also have this feeling. What happened recently is a bit incredible. Let's take Tian Hongyu to betroth Miss Shulan to the King of Zhou. Why did Tian Hongyu make a decision without discussing with the prince at all?" Xiong Tingbi said.

"This is easy to explain. If he discusses with me, I will definitely object. Then this marriage will not exist at all." Zhu Yinglong explained.

"But my subordinates knew that Tian Hongyu didn't even tell Princess Tian before, and Princess Tian only found out afterwards."

"Oh, what happened?" Zhu Yinglong had a huge question mark in his heart. Tian Shuying would not lie to him. Why did she hide such an important point?

"Where did the rumors that those four stores were Miss Shulan's dowry?" Zhu Yinglong asked.

"This rumor began to spread as early as we bought the half street. Lian'er had also used the power of shadow to track it down, but no results were found. Therefore, it was just a rumor in the market. This kind of rumor occurs every day, so I didn't pay much attention to it. The matter was also reported to the prince. When the prince heard it, he just laughed it off and put it aside."

"When did it happen?" Zhu Yinglong asked with a frown slightly.

"Before leaving for Liaodong," Shi Kefa took it and said, "The file information was sorted out by the student for the prince."

"What other strange things are there? You all tell me." Zhu Yinglong's heart suddenly sank. The conspiracy that started half a year ago must not be small.

"The Princess Zhou suddenly ordered Tian Hongyu to move out of the royal palace shortly after the prince left, so the current Tian Mansion was found." What Shi Kefa said really scared Zhu Yinglong because he had never heard Zhou Yingning mention this matter at all.

"The students have also asked about Princess Zhou several times, but Princess Zhou is very secretive about it and refuses to explain the reasons to his subordinates. She just said that she would tell you personally, so the student did not ask about it." Shi Kefa said honestly.

Zhu Yinglong felt dizzy and his wife actually concealed something from him. Did he ignore them? No more, he felt very sorry for none? Is it impossible for Xu Ruying to be pregnant? Zhou Yingning is a generous woman, Tian Shuying is even more kind, Ye Lianyi is lively and active, and has a good relationship with Xu Ruying. She often goes to see Wang her, especially they are all martial arts practitioners, and they have common language, and they will not be jealous because of jealousy. Besides, jealousy will not put such an important thing on their own. They all know their temperaments, and they all understand the consequences of doing so.
