(Book friends, I’m very sorry. I was too busy yesterday and didn’t have time to write. I’ll make up for anything I missed tomorrow)
"Thank you so much, Eunuch Lu." A slightly hoarse voice said in a luxurious house in the capital.
"This is your Majesty's will. How can I, a slave, decide such a thing?" A high-pitched voice sounded.
"You are a popular father-in-law in front of His Majesty. How about you say a few kind words?" the hoarse voice said again.
The person who spoke first flattered a few words, and the person who spoke later kept evading. The two talked for a while, and then walked out of the room. The person with the hoarse voice respectfully took the person with the shrill voice to the main hall of the mansion.
In front of the door.
The man with the shrill voice left, and the man with the hoarse voice just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard a voice from beside him: "Dad, he is just a slave, why are you so polite to him!"
"What are you talking about? Your wife can say this, and so can you! Fortunately, I didn't let you come out when Eunuch Lu was here just now." The man with a hoarse voice scolded.
Of these two people, the one with the hoarse voice who spoke at the beginning was Xiao Zhuo. The man he scolded was naturally his son, Prince Consort Xiao Yong. The one who was called Eunuch Lu was of course Lu Yi. Xiao Zhuo looked unhappy.
He continued: "It's a good thing that you have a good relationship with your wife, but you shouldn't learn from her in everything. Your wife is a princess, and His Majesty is very close to the clan and has a good relationship with several princesses. Of course, you can treat Lu Yihu
Come and drink; if you do this, if Lu Yi gives you eye drops in front of His Majesty, even if he doesn't do anything to you for the sake of the princess, your future will be gone." They are at Xiao Zhuo's mansion, Yun Yun
She had no servants, so Xiao Zhuo just called Yun Yun his wife.
"Moreover." Xiao Zhuo's expression immediately changed and he became very happy and said, "This time His Majesty has promised me such an important job. How can I not be happy? It doesn't matter if I am more respectful to Lu Yi when I am happy.
"
"Dad," when Xiao Yong heard this, he no longer cared about his father being respectful and polite to Lu Yi, but said with worry: "Dad, my son always feels bad after you did this errand."
"What's wrong?" Xiao Zhuo said: "No matter how many people wanted this job, they refused to come. Your Majesty gave it to your father and me. Why is it so bad? It's better than what your Majesty promised when he sent your father and me to the two shipping companies.
The errand is even better!"
"Dad, you can't just look at the power and money in your hands and think it's a good job. My son doesn't understand the affairs of the bank, but I heard from Chang Shan that His Majesty has allowed many noble families in the capital to join the bank's head office.
People from the Changfu of Zheng Guogong, people from the Xufu of Wei Guogong, people from Liangguogong's Lanfu, and people from Cao Guogong's Lifu have all joined the bank guild. These noble families don't understand the affairs of the bank. To arrange for them to come in, let them
They make money, and the second is to let them look after this guild for His Majesty. Can dad control them? Don't end up having to go through a thankless effort." Xiao Yong said very seriously.
Yunxi was of course very kind to his younger sisters. Yunlan and Yunyun, who were already married, often entered the palace in order to maintain their relationship with Yunxi. Yunxi was willing to talk to them about some things, so they probably knew about Yunxi.
Xie's thoughts, of course, he also knew that many noble families were selecting disciples to serve as stewards of the bank's head office.
If their husbands or their husbands' family members also work as ordinary stewards at the bank's head office, they would of course be willing to do so. Don't give up the free money. There are no Ten Princes' Palaces these days. This certainly makes them more free and does not have to be controlled by slaves.
But it also means that they have to pay for all their expenses themselves. Although they have the salary of the princess and the prince-in-law, as well as the land, how can the appearance of the princess be worse? If the appearance is worse, people will not say that you want to save money.
But they have lost His Majesty's favor. So they have to hold up the situation. As a result, they can't save much money every year, so of course they can't let go of the opportunity to make money.
But being the general manager of the bank's head office is too risky. When Yun Yun went home and chatted with Xiao Yong, he mentioned that even someone from the Chang family or the Xu family might not be able to please the general manager, let alone others.
So when Xiao Yong heard that his father was going to be the general manager, he immediately tried to dissuade him.
Xiao Zhuo himself was very confident. "Don't worry, I promise to do a good job as the general manager of the bank's head office, so that no one sent by the Xu family or the Chang family will cause trouble. The money of each family's nobles can't be different, we can
The family deserves nothing less."
"Dad, I'm sorry for the offence, but where do you get the confidence?" Xiao Yong couldn't help but ask.
"You have not offended once or twice. What does it matter if you offend once more? And since you are a princess, that is, a member of the clan, according to the rules, dad should salute you." Xiao Zhuo seemed to be in a really good mood.
He was very nice and even made some jokes.
But Xiao Yong was not in the mood to joke. "Dad, my son wants to talk to you about something serious."
"Son, what you said just now is very disrespectful to your father and me." Xiao Zhuo made another joke. Seeing that he was really anxious, he hurriedly said: "Confidence naturally comes from good things. Do you remember that your father and I just said
When I came back from Bao'an, did I tell you that there was a vassal in Nanyang who wanted to go to war?"
"I remember. At that time, my father also said that he would report this situation to His Majesty." Xiao Yong nodded.
"Actually, what my father said at the time was concealed. The matter was indeed reported to His Majesty, but your father and I actually know which vassal king is going to fight, and I know a lot about this battle. If this battle can be won, in the future,
The wealth will come rolling in. Not only will the noble families not make trouble, but they will be grateful to me."
"If we cannot win this battle and this plan fails, your father and I are not fools. We will naturally retreat when the time comes. But this battle will definitely succeed."
'I'm afraid that if it doesn't work out, I won't be able to retreat when the time comes.' Xiao Yong secretly thought in his heart. But since his father has taken over the position of the general manager of the bank's head office, it is impossible for him to retire immediately. This is just
I can hold back for the time being.
The father and son stood in front of the door and talked for a while. It was getting late. Xiao Zhuo raised his head and looked at the sky and said to Xiao Yong: "It's getting late. You should go back. Don't keep your wife waiting.
I'm anxious. Besides, your father and I also want to see our grandson as soon as possible."
Xiao Yong was about to speak after hearing this, when he suddenly heard a burst of sounds coming from outside the hospital, and couldn't help but ask: "What happened?"
The gatekeeper immediately went out to ask. After a while, he reported back: "Master, Master, His Highness the King of Wu is going to the Hanzhou Continent to seal it. His Majesty will personally deliver it to the dock."
"Your Majesty is extremely kind to this brother." Xiao Zhuo said with a smile. This situation has been difficult to deal with since ancient times, and in the end it resulted in many fratricide. In his opinion, Yunxi sent Yunwen to the Hanzhou continent.
The best way.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore," Xiao Zhuo didn't want to talk about such things anymore, and said to Xiao Yong: "You don't need to worry about the affairs of the bank's head office, and don't worry about it. Listen to your majesty, study hard at home, and wait till next time.
