Chapter 24 The ambition of the prince
Xiao Chenxuan, who rushed back home, optimistically believed that he had won this conversation with Emperor Chu. He thought that this negotiation showed his most vivid and hearty performance. He was a little carried away and hummed a little tune in the house. That was a
proud.
"Old Wang, go and call that fellow Zhu Afu."
Seeing Xiao Chenxuan's displeasure, Butler Wang thought whether Zhu Afu had offended Xiao Chenxuan. The first moment he saw Zhu Afu, there was a flurry of flying legs and a few steamed buns. Unexpectedly, Xiao Chenxuan's displeasure was that he was satisfied with Zhu Afu's work and was a bit reluctant to part with it.
.
"You are being stabbed a thousand times, have you offended the prince?"
Zhu Afu broke his head and couldn't think of where he had offended the prince. He said with an aggrieved face: "Steward Wang, you are wronged! In the past few days, your highness has seen the villain making iron hoofs and making the cuts that the prince said.
I was also rewarded with some silver coins, how could I offend His Highness?"
Butler Wang was confused. Hey, that's not right. Then why does the prince look like an angry little daughter-in-law? No matter what, she was also beaten. If she takes her to the prince, she will find out!
The two came to the hall, Xiao Chenxuan snorted and gave the Chu Emperor's imperial edict to Zhu Afu. Zhu Afu quickly knelt down. Xiao Chenxuan didn't care about Zhu Afu's cowardice and cursed loudly.
"Go to Old General Chen and report to me tomorrow. If you dare to disgrace me, I will cut you into pieces."
After Xiao Chenxuan finished speaking, he muttered again: "Oh, I have to find another blacksmith."
Hearing that Xiao Chenxuan wanted to go to General Chen by himself and find a new blacksmith, Zhu Afu was stunned. The prince did not want him anymore! He cried and said: Your Majesty, what the villain did is not right. The villain will change it now. Your Majesty.
Why give away the villain!"
After saying that, Zhu A lay on the ground and cried. While the prince was here, the prince was very fond of the craftsmen. He ate them well and used them well. He never beat or scolded the craftsmen.
Xiao Chenxuan made Zhu Afu amused. They are such lovely people!
"You don't even look at it yourself. His Majesty gave you an official position and reported to the old general. This is a good thing. You are such a coward. Do it for me. Seeing how cowardly you are, you really embarrass me!"
What, grant an official status? Butler Wang picked up the imperial edict and took a look, Guaiguai, in charge of military affairs, ninth rank, attached to the Ministry of War, in charge of officials who manufacture weapons. Butler Wang took another look at the honest Zhu Afu, this guy is really lucky.
If you don't become your own master, you will be a little blacksmith at most in your life.
Butler Wang was also very excited. After all, this guy is also someone who came out of the prince's palace: "You guys, why don't you quickly thank the emperor and then thank the prince? From now on, you will be the official. Don't forget to wait for me."
Zhu Afu was dumbfounded. What, he was given an official status by His Majesty. His ancestors had been craftsmen for countless generations, and he became an official. He couldn't believe it for a moment, and said to Butler Wang beside him: "Steward Wang, can you beat me?
Come on? Am I still dreaming?"
Butler Wang was not polite and slapped Zhu Afu on the head: "Does it hurt?"
Zhu Afu: "It hurts. Butler Wang, you can't be gentle. It hurts me to death."
Butler Wang rolled his eyes for a while: "It hurts! That's right, I didn't dream, why don't you quickly ask for an order to thank me?"
Zhu Afu then respectfully and carefully picked up the imperial edict. After all, it was only a matter of a few words for a small official, but His Majesty issued an imperial edict. He had to take it back and pay tribute, so that his descendants would know that he was given the official title by Emperor Chu.
body.
Zhu Anfu, who was kneeling on the ground, nodded towards the palace and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
Then, he turned to Xiao Chenxuan and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great kindness. I, Zhu Afu, will never forget it."
Xiao Chenxuan saw Zhu Afu, who was considered a civil servant, and patted Zhu Afu on the shoulder.
"Get up, work hard, and don't embarrass me."
Zhu Afu stood up, then thought about it, and said seriously, "Yes, Your Majesty, I would like to ask Your Majesty to give me a name. After all, Zhu Afu..."
After speaking, Zhu Afu scratched his head with his hand, looking shy.
Xiao Chenxuan glanced at Zhu Afu in front of him. Isn't this guy an honest and honest person? After becoming a small official, he felt that his name was not good enough. Will he become a corrupt official in the future? He thought that he did not have enough money and his official position was not big enough. My wife
Not enough? Then you have done something wrong!
"Haha, let me call you Zhu An! You are safe, you are a responsible person, and you are a good person who does things in a down-to-earth manner!"
Zhu Afu didn't care what his name was, as long as the prince named him, he then said: "The villain Zhu An thanks the prince for giving me the name. I will not insult the name Zhu An."
Xiao Chenxuan did not expect that Zhu Afu would not go to the old general for long before he sent someone to him and proposed the idea of 100 steelmaking. Xiao Chenxuan could only sigh, what a talent! He has become Hui Bole!
After Zhu An left, Xiao Chenxuan handed another imperial edict to Butler Wang and said: "Go, give it to Chen Junxi tomorrow morning, and tell him that I will start recruiting five thousand people in front of the palace tomorrow morning, and hire one thousand of them to serve as Prince Ji's palace."
The other members of the escort team who have not been hired will be given two taels of silver per person. Wherever they come from, I will give them back to you."
After Butler Wang carefully took the imperial decree from Xiao Chenxuan's hand, Xiao Chenxuan said again: "Send Ma Changshi and Yu Sima to my study. I have something to give you."
After saying that, Xiao Chenxuan went directly back to his study. After arriving in the study, Xiao Chenxuan sat down on the ground. He was thinking that if he could not return to the 21st century, then where would his future go? He would settle down in a corner and be a dandy prince.
But will his brothers let him go? Participating in the struggle for hegemony among the princes, competing in the world, but looking at his little arms and legs, shaking his head again, Xiao Chenxuan was confused.
Hearing the prince's call, Ma Changshi Keyu Sima hurriedly walked to Xiao Chenxuan's study. When he came to the study, what he saw was Xiao Chenxuan sitting on the floor in a daze. It was not easy to disturb the two of them, so they stood there.
After one or two sticks of incense, I finally realized something was wrong with the prince, and immediately stepped forward and said softly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty."
After calling a few times, Xiao Chenxuan finally reacted.
"Here you go, sit down."
The two of them were dumbfounded, you look at me, I look at you, the prince is sitting
How dare we sit on the ground? Xiao Chenxuan also realized that he was sitting on the ground, and then he laughed: "Sit down casually, I am a little confused, two adults can help me clarify my doubts."
The two of them also sat down on the ground opposite Xiao Chenxuan. It gave people the impression that these were just three weaklings pretending to be a family?
Xiao Chenxuan was the first to speak: "You two are the backbone of capable ministers assigned by my father to manage the affairs and security of my palace. You two should talk to me about what I will do in view of my current situation."
Since Emperor Chu sent Yu Gang and Ma Wei to Xiao Chenxuan, the two of them boarded Xiao Chenxuan's ship. Unless Emperor Chu transferred them back, it was unlikely that they would leave the palace in their lifetime, so in a court without a prince
In the court, of course they hoped that their prince would do something. Then the two of them looked at each other and nodded one after another.
Yu Sima asked: "I don't know what the prince's ambition is."
Xiao Chenxuan looked at a loss. If he wanted to be a playboy, he would definitely end up miserable. Since ancient times, the emperor's family had been ruthless. Otherwise, he would go straight to the top.
Xiao Chenxuan finally made a decision. "Go forward with determination and determination."
When the two heard Xiao Chenxuan's answer, the prince had ambitions to reach the top! The two immediately knelt down and said in unison: "Ma Wei (Yu Gang) pays homage to the lord."
The two of them instantly exchanged their identities. If Xiao Chenxuan does nothing, then they can only be the chief historian and Sima of the palace for the rest of their lives. Now Xiao Chenxuan is going to soar into the sky. If Xiao Chenxuan can really get on the 9th Five-Year Plan and dominate the world, then they will be better off.
, being a highly respected minister is a huge gamble for them, but they must take the gamble, otherwise, if any prince reaches the top, Xiao Chenxuan's fate will also be their fate.
Xiao Chenxuan looked at the serious expressions of the two people, and he had no way to retreat, so he made an immediate decision.
"You two, please get up quickly. Since you two have decided to follow me, I will definitely live up to you."
The two men also replied: "I will swear allegiance to my lord to the death."
Xiao Chenxuan immediately made arrangements for the two of them. After all, he had too few people available at the moment, and then he said: "You'd better call me the prince in normal times. I know that you must be loyal, but I am stronger than the weak and cannot let others.
Take note of me as soon as possible. "
The two replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."
Ma Changshi, you immediately take over all money-related business dealings with the palace, especially the restaurant opened in General Chen’s palace. You must open it quickly to accumulate money for me, and at the same time, open the restaurant until seven
Traveling to various parts of the country, I will be of great use to you."
"Yu Sima, you secretly reserve talents for me, especially generals. I will ask Chen Junxi to cooperate with you and develop an eyeliner at the same time. After the staffing is completed, I will personally teach him and contact him to find out if there are any problems!
"
The two immediately replied: "No problem."
Xiao Chenxuan said: "Go down!"
At this time, Xiao Chenhao's voice came from outside the study: "Bago, Bago, haha... Father asked me to come to your house to study."
Chapter completed!
