The sky is getting brighter and it is getting a little hotter.

Zhu Xu took off the blanket, put down the watermelon in his hand, walked to the steps, and started a simple gymnastics to loosen his muscles and bones.

"Yeah, it's a good day!"

Zhu Xu looked at the red color in the east and felt better.

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong"

In the direction of the Ganqing Palace, a dull and crisp bell sound came. When Zhu Xu heard this sound, he smiled even more.

"Your Highness, do you want something to eat?" Yao Qingqing walked past the threshold and came to Zhu Xu's voice, and said softly.

Zhu Xu waved his hand and said loudly, "I won't eat anymore, go to bed!" After that, he turned around and walked into the bedroom.

Yao Qingqing felt that His Highness Hui was a little strange today, so he pursed his lips and walked in.

In Zhu Xu's sleep, time passed by little by little, the sun became stronger and stronger, hanging high above the capital, scorching everything.

Zhu Xu's quilt was so hot that she tossed and turned around on the quilt of Jinsi. Because the ice was placed, the room always felt wet and uncomfortable.

After a long time Zhu Xu felt it, he barely defeated the anger of getting up, opened his eyes, and walked out of the room staggeringly.

Yao Qingqing was making jelly he liked to eat outside. When he saw Zhu Xu getting up, he quickly wiped his hands and came over and said, "Your Highness, wash your face first, wake up your eyebrows."

Zhu Xu nodded blankly, walked to the recliner, and lay there weakly.

"I can't sleep at night, I can't sleep well during the day, and the bad habits I developed before have come again..." Zhu Xu sighed, his mind was confused and chaotic.

Yao Qingqing smiled with a pursed lips, came over with a basin, and said, "The main reason is that the weather is too hot, so it is normal to want to sleep."

Zhu Xu looked at Yao Qingqing who was energetic and was not comforted at all. He reached into the water and suddenly became clever and ice was placed in the water.

He sat up and threw cold water on his face. He felt the coolness of his skin, and finally woke up a few times.

"Have Xiao Cao come to me?" Zhu Xu wiped his face and looked up at the outside.

Yao Qingqing held the basin and said, "Eunuch Cao has come, I know that Your Highness is sleeping and leaving again."

Zhu Xu nodded and said thoughtfully: "That's almost the same as I expected."

According to his previous thoughts, no matter how big the matter is, even if the sky falls, the first thing to do in the court is to confront each other, argue for a few days before they can deal with the problem. Of course, there will be a quarrel in the process of handling, and the quarrel determines the benefits. Whoever has a loud and strong voice determines who can get more benefits.

Not long after, Cao Huachun came and came in and said, "Your Highness, as you expected, there is a fierce debate in the court about the canal transportation. Many people think it is important and should be dealt with as soon as possible, but more people think it involves important things and should not act rashly."

Zhu Xu smiled and said, "In the end, the emperor's brother suppressed him. Is the Ministry of Revenue going to discuss it again?"

Cao Huachun nodded and said, "Yes, but the Ministry of Revenue does not have the right to deal with the canal transportation. I think it will be necessary to go to the court to discuss the decision."

Zhu Xuheshou, the governor of Cao Transport is a second-rank official, and the Minister of Revenue is also a second-rank official. Although he was affiliated with the Ministry of Revenue earlier, he was considered a relatively independent yamen over time, and even the cabinet could not easily intervene.

"Let them fight," Zhu Xu said with a smile, "The more they argue, the longer they fight, the more interests they have, and the more we will share."

Cao Huachun agreed, hesitated for a moment, and said carefully: "Your Highness, in addition, I heard that in today's court discussion, someone mentioned the workshop in the east of His Highness's city."

Zhu Xu immediately raised his eyebrows and his expression also condensed, saying, "Who mentioned it, what did you say?"

Cao Huachun said: "It was a memorandum from the Ministry of Personnel to the head of the Central Committee, saying that the low price of His Highness's workshop disrupted the prices of the capital, and the public was full of grievances. He should be charged with public support to the nine borders, and the Ministry of War intends to move."

"The Ministry of Personnel is in charge?"

Zhu Xu narrowed his eyes. Zhao Nanxing was the Minister of Personnel. He gave this instruction. What was his purpose? Want to divert the court's attention?

He knocked his right hand on the edge of the chair and began to think about it.

The puff used in his workshop is less than half the cost of a steamed bun even if it is on the market. Most of them are mixed with sweet potatoes and corn, which makes the cost even lower.

In other words, if you earn thirty cents for a hundred steamed buns, you can earn 70 cents or even more!

Shanhaiguan is not far from the capital, and if it is really necessary to supply it to the Ministry of War, it is not impossible. It is just a short time, but after a long time, I am afraid that it will be a scam with the tiger, and the gain will not be worth the loss.

"Your Highness."

Zhu Xu was thinking, and Cao Wenzhao hurriedly ran in from outside.

Zhu Xu looked up at his anxious face and said in a slight daze, "What happened?"

Cao Wenzhao looked angry and said, "Your Highness, a batch of sweet potatoes transported into the city just now were arrested by the Right Guard Camp, and his subordinates did not release them even if they were asked to negotiate."

Zhu Xu tilted his head slightly, then the corner of his mouth twitched, his eyes were filled with sarcastic expressions, and he said, "Two-pronged approach... Is this Lord Zhao really planning to take me to the tank?"

Before, Zhu Xu only thought that Zhao Nanxing wanted to confuse the public and disrupt the court's attention, so as to gain time, and to clear the problems exposed by Li Jinyan, so that he would not be too passive.

But now Zhu Xu understood that this Lord Zhao clearly wanted to make a big deal about his workshop and cause trouble!

Cao Wenzhao looked at Zhu Xu with a strange look and said, "Your Highness, what should we do? Should we put pressure on the right guard?"

Zhu Xu waved his hand and said, "Don't be anxious first, let me think about it."

He had previously searched the treasury of six ministries and several yamen in Shuntian Prefecture, and let a few go, one of which was the Right Guard!

This is not a yamen that can be moved casually. No one can act rashly without imperial edicts. What's more, the people are strong and powerful, neither the Jinyiwei nor the Grand Inner Guards are the opponents. Zhu Xu naturally doesn't think the pressure Cao Wenzhao said was feasible. Zhao Nanxing might be able to use his prestige to ask them to help do something, but he, the little prince, is not.

Cao Huachun looked at Zhu Xu's pondering expression, moved down, and whispered to Cao Wenzhao about the matter in the court.

Cao Wenzhao's face changed slightly after a moment of thinking. He looked up at Zhu Xu and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, you must do this as soon as possible, which will eliminate their thoughts. It will be very troublesome if the conference is in trouble!"

Zhu Xu nodded. He also knew this, but he had to think of a good way.

Since his workshop was brought up in the court, he would be noticed. Even if he avoided this time, there would definitely be another next time. The adults in the court would not let go of this piece of fat, and would definitely take action to "benefit the country and the people."

As for Zhao Nanxing, he might have been able to copy the Ministry of Personnel’s treasury in the past, because they had the problem, but they could not make any trouble for him afterwards. But when they really met, Zhu Xu actually didn’t have much strength to deal with it. After all, he was a master of the literary world, a minister of the Ministry of Personnel, one of the leaders of Donglin, and his disciples and former officials all over the world.

"You guys say, I'm not involved in the government affairs, isn't it wrong?" Suddenly, Zhu Xu looked up and looked at the two of them and said.

The two of them changed their faces when they heard this, especially Cao Huachun. Looking at Zhu Xu's eyes were filled with horror, he knelt down and said, "Your Highness, I dare to say, don't be so thoughtful!"

Cao Wenzhao also stepped forward with a serious expression and said, "Your Highness, the subordinates mean the same thing. Once you get involved, if you are not careful, you will be doomed! Queen, the emperor will not be able to protect you!"

Zhu Xu smiled slightly and said, "Okay, I know better than you, just say it casually."

Cao Wenzhao Cao Huachun looked at each other and felt uneasy. Although His Highness Hui said it was "spoken", they always felt that this was a sign that Zhu Xu was going to get involved in party struggles.

Their hearts were flustered and their eyes changed rapidly.

The Ming Dynasty court did not have vassal kings involved in the government affairs, nor did it have no vassal kings to rebel, but except for the Emperor Taizong, all failed without exception and ended up in extremely miserable ways!

Zhu Xu didn't say much, and knocked his finger on the chair and said, "Xiao Cao, please inform Li Deyong and let him tell the president and the Huimin Chamber of Commerce about sweet potatoes, and then ask the president to find the Minister of Shuntian Prefecture, and then accompany him to meet the Minister of War Sun Chengzong. He said that 50% of the money can be supplied to the Ministry of War. However, there must be advance payment and limited supply. Well... don't rush to find Sun Chengzong first, and wait until I inform you before going."

"Your Highness, what if the Ministry of War does not agree?" Cao Wenzhao thought about it thoughtfully and said.

Zhu Xu smiled lightly and said, "There is no way if you don't agree. If Zhao Nanxing really wants to use this king to put the tank, I will let him know how heavy this tank is and how many people can kill!"

Both Cao Huachun and Cao Wenzhao knew that Zhu Xu had never had any airs. Whenever he said the word "I" or pretended, he was happy, or... he was very angry!

"It's Your Highness, I'll do it now."

Cao Huachun stood up and said respectfully to Zhu Xu.

Zhu Xu waved his hand and asked him to go out, and walked on the chair, feeling a little irritated. He, an outsider, was involved in party struggles from time to time, which shows how dangerous it is in the court.

Cao Wenzhao looked at Zhu Xu's somewhat bored expression, walked closer, and whispered: "Your Highness, I have an idea, I don't know if I should say it."

Zhu Xu put his head on his hands and looked at him and said, "Tell me, look."

Cao Wenzhao hesitated for a moment and said, "Look, how do we teach the Ministry of War to the Ministry of War with sweet potatoes, corn seeds, and how to make them? Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated, and it is very suitable for planting. Moreover, it is not only beneficial to the border, but they will not bother us again."

Zhu Xu immediately laughed and sat up and said, "Don't think about this. Once you hand it over, you will get it if you don't mention it. I'm afraid that the prices in this capital and even the entire Ming Dynasty will rise instead of falling. Some people will be richer and the poor will be poorer."

Cao Wenzhao thought about the current situation and felt that it was the case, so he said, "It's because my subordinates are not thinking about it."
