Lao Zhu listened outside the door for a while, and when he saw that Dasun had settled the monks and Taoist priests, he slowly walked away. But before leaving, he said something to the Jin Yiwei guarding the door.

"When we're all gone, tell Nisun and ask him to come back to the palace to have dinner with us in the evening!"

"promise!"

After Lao Zhu left, Zhu Yunxi did not keep these monks and Taoist priests to eat. Instead, he sent them directly back to the Guanyi of Honglu Temple and let them continue to eat cabbage and tofu.

The guard guarding the gate hurriedly ran in to deliver Old Zhu's instructions. Zhu Yunxi inquired a few words, and after learning that the emperor's grandfather had arrived, he immediately ordered someone to prepare a carriage and planned to go back to the palace to chat with the old man.

Before Zhu Yunxi left the palace, Qin Hengbo and Gao Ming came over with worries.

"Your Highness, you don't think they will really cooperate with the court in collecting taxes, do you?"

Zhu Yunxi shook his head when he heard this.

"How is that possible?"

"That's real money. How can we have fun without killing a few people?"

When the two of them saw Zhu Yunxi saying this, they immediately bowed.

"Your Highness, Holy Ming!"

"But this matter must be remembered for a long time, and never resort to swordsmanship!"

"Actually, what His Highness just said is very good. As long as we control the ultimatum well, we can make them obey."

"This is the statement Wei Chen just wrote with Master Qin. I hope His Highness will read it slowly on the way."

Zhu Yunxi casually took the note and asked.

"Is there anything else?"

"No more!"

"Since I have nothing else to do, I will go into the palace to have dinner with the emperor."

"I will respectfully send you off to Your Highness!"

"etc……"

"You guys are all right. I just remembered something."

"You guys tell the people over at Mount Wutai soon and ask them to escort the gold and silver to Beijing as soon as possible."

"At the same time, we will dispatch manpower to other famous Buddhist and Taoist mountains to collect the money from the orphans..."

After Zhu Yunxi said this, he ran away, leaving only Lao Gao and Lao Qin looking at each other.

"What are you looking at?"

"Hurry up and get back to work, otherwise you will have to work overtime again today!"

After Lao Gao said this angrily, he turned around and left. Lao Qin stared at Zhu Yunxi's back depressedly for a while, and then went back to work helplessly.

When Zhu Yunxi returned to the palace and passed Taiping Gate, he was suddenly attracted by the aroma outside the carriage.

"It smells so good. Has this been turned into a spice street?"

Xu Liuzi shook his head when he heard this.

"without!"

"I heard that the emperor paid salaries to the officials in Beijing some time ago and gave out a lot of pepper, cinnamon and other things. Now the officials in Beijing are busy selling the goods."

"What?"

When Zhu Yunxi heard this, he quickly stopped the carriage and came to a stall to ask.

"Sir, how do you sell this pepper?"

"The emperor's grandson?"

"Sun Xingzu, head of the Yunnan Qing Li Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Accounts, pays homage to the emperor's grandson!"

When Zhu Yunxi heard that the other party was still an officer in charge, his mood became even more gloomy.

"You don't even have a servant in your family, do you?"

"When we return to the Emperor's Grandson, Wei Chen has an old servant in his family, but he fell ill recently and cannot come out to set up a stall. Therefore, Wei Chen took off his official uniform and went out to sell goods, intending to sell some money in exchange for some medicine money..."

"well……"

Zhu Yunxi sighed secretly when he heard this and said softly to the official.

"Get up!"

"You haven't come here to set up a stall today, and I haven't seen you either."

Upon hearing this, Sun Xing's group quickly kowtowed and thanked him.

"I would like to thank Your Highness for your kindness in protecting me!"

Zhu Yunxi got on the carriage again and looked at the long spice market again, but his mood could no longer be lifted.

"Xu Liuzi, go and tell the general manager of the supply and marketing cooperative and ask him to send someone to collect all these spices!"

"According to the market price plus 20% plus!"

"Your Highness is truly benevolent and righteous..."

Sun Xing's team became very depressed after being blocked by the emperor's grandson.

Because according to the rules of Ming Dynasty officialdom, his behavior of setting up a stall was unofficial. If the imperial envoy found out and wrote a letter of impeachment to him, at least he would be reprimanded by his majesty, and at worst he would lose his official position and go home.

Therefore, after watching the emperor's grandson's carriage leave, he packed up his things and planned to go home.

However, as soon as he finished cleaning up, he saw several imperial guards leading an official wearing a grinning "shark suit" and patchwork over.

"Don't even set up a stall!"

As soon as the official in the shark suit opened his mouth, the people in the market were frightened half to death.

There were many officials in regular uniforms among them, and they all saw the emperor's grandson when he got off the carriage just now.

Now seeing the emperor's grandson's people rushing over so quickly, everyone couldn't help but feel nervous.

Could it be that the emperor's grandson was angry and first sent people to confiscate their spices, and then locked them in the Jinyi Guard Prison?

"Whoever, don't run away. I know the price. You are the head of the Yunnan Cleaning Department. What are you calling Sun..."

When Sun Xingzu heard this, he quickly stopped and came to the big shark with a sad face.

"Comrade, for the sake of our fellow ministers, please forgive me..."

"I don't want the things anymore. I just ask you not to report my selling to the court..."

The shark suit official laughed on the spot when he heard this.

"Hi!"

"Brother Sun, what are you thinking? I'm not here to arrest you!"

"The Emperor's grandson is kind-hearted, but he couldn't see Brother Sun sweeping the floor so he ordered his subordinates to come and collect all the spices in this street!"

"ah?"

When Sun Xingzhu heard this, his mouth was so big that it almost caught up with the big shark on the opponent's chest.

"Brother, do you really mean what you say?"

"Of course it's true. How dare I pretend to pass on the emperor's grandson's oral instructions?"

"The emperor's grandson also specifically asked me to purchase it according to the market price plus 20%!"

As soon as Sun Xingzu heard this, he knelt down with a plop and kowtowed towards the direction of the palace.

"His Royal Highness the Grandson of the Emperor...Weichen...Weichen...wuwuwu..."

The Sun Xing Group had long heard about the Emperor Sun Renyi, but since he became an official in the court, they caught up with the Emperor to encourage His Majesty the Emperor to implement the one-whip method and to pay grain to both officials and gentry.

Both the government and the public were criticized by the enemy Qi, who also resented the emperor's grandson.

However, the emperor's grandson just happened to pass by and found him, a humble official, selling goods at a stall, so he ordered people to buy up all the goods in the market to preserve his dignity. How could he not burst into tears with gratitude?

"Your Highness is benevolent and righteous!"

"I am so ashamed of Your Highness, wuwuwu..."

Other minor officials hiding in the market secretly wiped away tears when they heard the conversation between the two. This was the first time they felt the warmth from the royal family since they became officials in the court.

While the general manager of the supply and marketing cooperative was busy purchasing spices, Lao Zhu had already ordered someone to prepare a large table of dishes and was eagerly waiting for his eldest grandson to enter the palace.

While Lao Zhu was waiting anxiously, he suddenly heard a sound on the door curtain. Lao Zhu was so happy that he stood up from the chair. However, after standing up, Lao Zhu realized that something was wrong. How could a grandfather welcome his grandson?

Then, he sat down again, with an angry expression on his face.

Not long after, the door curtain of the side hall rang, and a little head squeezed in from the outside.

"Grandpa Huang?"

"Isn't Grandpa Huang here?"

"Grandpa Huang is not here, so my grandson will go to Grandma Guo!"
