"You...is this the warehouse door? I think a mortar might not be able to penetrate it, right?"
Xue Hong and Chen Chen looked at the pig iron gate in front of them and were speechless for a while. It was not a big deal to build a big iron gate.
Zhu Hui confidently introduced the two of them: "This is the underground warehouse that I spent more than half a month building!"
"The walls of the warehouse are reinforced by me with "gold bricks", three floors! And if you want to open this door, you need to be there in person, and there are two doors inside! It's absolutely safe."
Xue Hong sighed: "Your Highness, if you ask me, it will be better if you turn your money into property next time. Otherwise..."
Zhu Hui: "I don't care. I don't know how long it will take me to save so much money next time. How can I be such a father? And my mother and queen, the two of them worked together to cheat me out of my money??_??"
Chen Chen patted Zhu Hui and said, "Hey...it's okay. Next time I find a way to make money, I will bring you with me. As the saying goes, you will come back after all the money you have spent!"
Zhu Hui: "Although I can come back after losing a thousand gold coins, it is basically impossible to get a million gold coins (????Benefit??)."
Xue Hong sighed. Emperor Long Qing and Zhu Hui were indeed father and son. They valued small money equally, but it was true that Zhu Hui couldn't blame him for feeling sorry for the money. Ten million taels were gone as soon as they were gone.
I heard that after Emperor Longqing took the money, he also ordered a box of peach blossom cakes. I heard that the empress made them herself, and there were twenty of them in one box.
Zhu Hui has never been willing to eat it. He calculated that it costs five hundred thousand taels for a peach blossom cake! He couldn't even grab the money quickly!
Xue Hong: "Your Highness, at most I will find another country to rob you in a few days. No, that person will find a way, and we will make more money."
It’s the Emperor’s birthday soon, and it’s our first time for Gong Zhi and I to participate, are there any precautions?”
Zhu Hui: "My grandpa is not that cruel. Just don't mention anything related to my uncle, Prince Yi Zhong. This is the biggest obstacle in my heart."
Speaking of which, the old Prince Yizhong was no longer alive in the original world, but his legends were everywhere.
Although the only time it was brought up was at Qin Keqing's funeral, when his coffin board was asked to be taken, the shadow of the old Prince Yizhong was behind many things.
Let’s not talk about the original work, but let’s talk about this life. Xue Hong’s adoptive father, Mr. Xue, once found for him the wooden logs from Huanghai Tiewang Mountain that were indestructible for thousands of years in order to please the old Prince Yizhong.
Moreover, the companion of the old Prince Yizhong was Jia She from the Jia family, and Jia Jing of the Ningguo Mansion was also an official in the old Prince Yizhong's house.
When the two great princes of the Jia family were still alive, they were the real bosses of Xungui. At that time, Xungui was in charge of the military power of Jingying and the important town on the nine sides.
Moreover, judging from the life experience of Jia She's first wife, Qingliu in the court also supported the old Prince Yizhong. Basically, the old Prince Yizhong's position as the crown prince was secure.
However, he suddenly rebelled. Why? I don't know.
The most powerful one came. With the support of the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, the old Prince Yizhong, who controlled all the troops in the Beijing camp, failed in his rebellion.
It was a game where the flying dragon rides on the face! You lost, how did you lose? No one knows. You could have won this game even if you let Mike Aselai, but you just lost.
All we know is that the former prince was deposed and imprisoned in the palace. Later, Emperor Longqing ascended the throne, and the military power of the nobles was severely weakened. Now there is basically nothing left.
Xue Hong and Chen Chen nodded after listening to Zhu Hui's words, expressing their understanding. Even if Zhu Hui didn't talk about it, they would never mention it. After all, they are not fools. What they can and cannot say is still in their hearts. The door is clear.
Zhu Hui suddenly showed a bad smile, but it passed quickly: "Ah, by the way, Junchen! There is a little guy from my eldest brother, the prince's family, who wants to meet you, Wei Huo, who is living in the world. Come on, go up and have a look."
Xue Hong blushed and quickly said she didn't dare.
Isn't it clear to others that he doesn't know it? Xue Hong's own leadership level is mediocre at best, and he relies entirely on equipment to crush him.
There's no strategy at all, it's all about feelings... No, it's all about the Science and Technology Bureau. So how could Xue Hong have the nerve to compete with the ancient famous general?
Zhu Hui put his arm around Xue Hong's shoulders: "Hey! I know what you are thinking. After all, times have changed! Besides, you made these guns and you deserve the credit."
Chen Chen also accepted Zhu Hui's favor and persuaded him bravely: "Yes, Junchen, so I'd better go up and have a look."
Xue Hong couldn't refuse anymore.
…
The three of them climbed the stairs with a stick of incense before returning to the ground from the underground. How deep did Zhu Hui dig the warehouse below?
Zhu Hui took the lead and walked to a courtyard of the palace: "Niece! Uncle Six has brought someone to you!"
I saw a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old standing in the courtyard, with a fair face and soft and thin skin. Her eyebrows were slender and picturesque, and her eyes shone like stars. There was a small mouth under the bridge of her small nose. The lips are thin, the corners of the mouth are slightly curved upward, and the whole face is delicate and beautiful.
The girl was accompanied by two maids and female officials.
Xue Hong and Chen Chen saluted slightly: "I have met the princess."
Zhu Hui: "This is the Jinling of my eldest brother's family. Because he is favored by his father, he is quite naughty and has not found anyone else yet."
According to the law, women are generally not allowed to meet outsiders casually, but most people in the Zhu family said: I am the law! If you are able, you can pull Confucius out of the ground and talk to me.
The last one who was not convinced and insisted on talking to the old Zhu family about the principles of loyalty to the emperor had all the earthworms in his house cut up and all the eggs in his house were shaken and turned yellow.
Since then, except for Yu Qiantoutie, few people dare to be polite to Lao Zhu's family. Even if they do, the end will basically be quite miserable.
Princess Jinling returned the gift: "Jinling has met Marquis Bowen and Marquis Ying. I often hear Uncle Six mentioning them."
Xue Hong and Chen Chen rolled their eyes at the same time: They have been playing together for so long, who doesn't know each other, what good things can Zhu Hui say about them.
Huh? But this time the two of them really misunderstood Zhu Hui. After all, Zhu Hui had ambitious goals this time.
When Xue Hong raised his head and saw Princess Jinling, he subconsciously looked at Zhu Hui and glared at him: "Your Highness, this is your niece? Why do I think Princess Jinling is about the same age as us? Isn't His Highness the Prince older than us? Are you ten years older?"
Zhu Hui raised his eyebrows and replied with his eyes: "Yes. Jinling is the first daughter my eldest brother had when he was ten years old! I don't know how cute she was at that time. Although I have no younger brothers and sisters, But I have nephews and nieces!”
Chen Chen, Xue Hong: "Wait a minute, you mean...His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has the princess of Jinling at the age of ten?"
Zhu Hui: "Yeah, what's wrong?"
Xue Hong exclaimed in her heart: Well, I gave birth to a child at the age of ten. No wonder the prince is always sick. Yuanyang was discharged too early. It is no wonder that the body can recover!
Chen Chen also said that he is worthy of being the Crown Prince, but he is different.
Princess Jinling saw that none of the three paid any attention to her. Instead, they stared at each other. They didn't know what they were doing, and they weren't angry. Instead, they found it interesting.
Princess Jinling: "This must be Hou Wenwen. I have been interested in foreign customs since I was a child. I wonder if Hou Wenwen can tell me about it?"
Xue Hong couldn't refuse, so she had to tell a few anecdotes from the West.
Princess Jinling looked at Xue Hong, who was talking eloquently, and her eyes unconsciously revealed a look of admiration.
Zhu Hui: "There's a show!"
"Junchen, Junchen, don't say that brother doesn't take care of you. When the time comes, I will still call you Junchen, and you can just call me Liushu! We are still friends. Hahahahaha!"
