"Marquis Deqing." Lao Zhu suddenly changed the subject: "Five months ago, we asked him to lead troops to Fuzhou to destroy Japanese pirates and suppress rebellions."
"As a result, last month, he gave me a memorial, saying that Fujian is now in chaos, the officials are not human beings, and the army is not human beings either."
"The government forces the people to rebel, and the army is corrupt. After much deliberation, I still want you, Yu Shi, Yu Min, Fan Congwen, and Gao Yiran to go to Fujian."
"Please sort out the local army, tax rolls, public sentiment, injustice cases, etc. for us. If you do a good job, I will give you a high official position when you come back."
Lao Zhu was very skillful in painting cakes. Gu Chen couldn't help but move his face out of the wat board and asked curiously: "How big is it?"
After saying this, he regretted it and immediately covered his mouth with the wat board.
What are you talking about?
Lao Zhu seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "Prime Minister, are you happy?"
Gu Chen's head immediately began to shake violently like a rattle.
"Your Majesty, just treat your minister as a bitch and don't take it to heart..."
The Zhongshu Province has been abolished, but he is still the prime minister. If he dies and travels back to the Song Dynasty, it will be almost the same.
"We won't treat you badly, Gu Chen. Five years ago, you said you had a better accounting method. Boss, what's your name?"
Hearing this, Zhu Biao on the side immediately added a sentence.
"Debit and credit accounting method."
He remembered it very clearly, and after thinking about it for a long time, he still couldn't think of a way out.
"Well, yes, can you tell us this method?"
Lao Zhu has a big face and looks particularly amiable now.
He doesn't look like a tyrant, but like a kind neighbor's grandfather.
Gu Chen blinked his eyes. He had cowpox, and now he wants accounting methods. Is it possible that you won't give him some benefits?
Want to have sex for nothing again?
"Your Majesty, I haven't recovered my brain yet. Can you give me some time?"
Well, drag it on if you can, he just can't remember, what can you do to him?
Somehow, Lao Zhu actually understood the boy's needs from his eyes. He touched his chin and said.
"Let's reward you with Tujie's house first. It's a big house with four entrances. It's close to the palace and can be reached in a short sedan chair. You can sleep a little longer in the morning, how about that?"
The girl said that if you want a horse to run well, you must feed it well.
Anyway, he just ransacked so many houses, and now he has a lot of money.
Giving him a house is nothing.
"Tu Jie's house." Gu Chen was expressionless on the surface, but his heart was filled with laughter: "Your Majesty, this is not a matter of whether the house is a house or not..."
A big house, or a house with four entrances.
That shouldn't be more than a thousand square meters?
There was no public space yet, so he could move in without paying a dime.
Wouldn't that be a great thing?
What?
Ominous?
Gu Chen didn't believe this. How many people died in the palace before.
Believe this!
"We know that your brain is not in good condition." Lao Zhu rarely spoke easily: "I will reward you with a ginseng plant and give you a good brain patch. You can submit the memorial to us in half a month. How about it?"
"We are not in a hurry, right? Fujian is not stable now. If you go there next year, the rebels and Japanese pirates will be almost wiped out."
Ginseng: "..."
Do you think I'm just patching up my head?
It's rare for Lao Zhu to be so easy to talk to, and also so generous.
If Gu Chen refuses again, wouldn't it be disrespectful?
He handed over his hand and said with a righteous face: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will work hard to repair my brain and quickly remember the accounting method to present it."
You said that if you had been so generous earlier, would you have had to wait five years?
Now that the shop has stopped, he is thinking about how to create better living conditions for his family.
East Palace.
"What?"
After hearing about this, Concubine Lu Ci suddenly felt uneasy.
"Let Yunwen get vaccinated against cowpox, and there is a 10% chance that he will die?"
"I don't agree with this, I don't agree with it, Your Highness, I absolutely don't agree with it."
"The palace is fine, how could there be smallpox? Why take such a risk?"
Although, she had already found out that a child in a family outside the city had smallpox.
She was ready to take the child's things into the palace, or find an excuse to lure the emperor's eldest grandson out of the palace, so as to avoid smallpox.
But when it was her son's turn, she was unwilling to let her child take risks even if there was only a 10% chance.
"How not?"
"Last month, eight or nine children died of smallpox in Yingtian Mansion. Since it can be prevented, it is natural to prevent it first."
Zhu Biao didn't expect her to react so strongly and couldn't help frowning.
I felt that she doted on her children too much, but when I thought about how strict she was with Yunwen in his studies, I felt that she didn't actually dote on her children.
On the contrary, it is very harsh.
Turning around to look at the Crown Princess again, I saw that she didn't reject the matter very much.
He also said: "I had smallpox when I was a child, so I can accompany the children. Sister Lu can rest assured that I will take care of the children."
As a king, if you want to achieve great things, how can you be afraid of such a mortality rate of less than 10%?
How could Mrs. Lu trust others to take care of her precious son?
Seeing that His Highness the Crown Prince had actually made up his mind, he decided to go and accompany him.
But Zhu Biao asked calmly: "Have you also had smallpox?"
Of course, Mrs. Lu had never had smallpox. She could not stay with her son, otherwise there would be a risk of infection, so she began to question Gu Chen.
"Master Gu is a scholar, not a doctor, and no one in his family is a doctor, so how can we trust him? Your Highness, you should think twice."
This is simply ridiculous.
"It's not Xin Guangxi." Zhu Biao now defended Gu Chen: "The doctors have been studying it for several months and are convinced that this method is effective."
"The failure rate of 10% is too high. In fact, it is not even 10%."
"The Imperial Hospital went to Fengyang and vaccinated more than fifty babies with pox, but none of them were fine."
"If it weren't for this, my father wouldn't be so bold and want to use it for his children, younger brothers and sisters. Don't say anything anymore."
"You are tired too. Go back to your palace and rest."
Seeing that she was still nagging, Zhu Biao completely lost his patience and asked her to go back first.
Mrs. Lu could only turn her head and look at Mr. Chang pleadingly, but she saw Ms. Chang just drinking tea with her head down.
She gritted her teeth and had no choice but to bend her knees and retreat.
Unexpectedly, before he took two steps, he heard the prince telling Mrs. Chang not to pack her things.
They say wait until everyone else has been successfully vaccinated before inoculating the hero.
Why?
Why did Zhu Xiongying get vaccinated last?
It's nothing more than fear of something happening.
They are both the grandson of the old man and the son of His Highness the Crown Prince. Why should Zhu Xiongying's life be more valuable than Yun Wen?
Lu's hand held the veil tightly, and her nails even dug into the flesh of her palm.
"Lu's heart is a bit big-hearted." Zhu Biao commented: "You have to be top-notch in everything."
"For such a young child, he wakes up after less than four hours of sleep in the winter to practice calligraphy and reading, and he often slaps his hands on his hands."
"To Xiongying, on the surface, I feel sorry for his hard work, but in fact, I want Xiongying to go crazy and not think about his real work, and give Xiongying a cricket?"
"What does he want Xiongying to look like, and what does he want Yunwen to look like?"
It's hard not to think too much about such differentiated treatment.
During the Chinese New Year, my father said that when Xiongying turns ten, he will be crowned the grandson of the emperor.
At that time, he saw that Lu's expression was not right.
"His Highness also discovered it?"
Mrs. Chang is just kind-hearted, she is not a fool. She has gradually improved her health over the years and has become more wary of Mrs. Lu.
"In the first half of the month, people around me and people around Concubine Lu were seen leaving the palace several times, saying they were buying some silk threads."
"Actually, I went to the suburbs. After my people followed me out of the suburbs, they disappeared."
Therefore, she didn't know why Lu's people left the palace.
Lu Ben had just died during the Chinese New Year, and her people left the palace and did not return to the Li family.
Why are you running outside the palace?
Zhu Biao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly put down the tea cup in his hand.
"It seems that Gu's eyes are still missing."
When Gu Chen left the palace today, he told himself that it was Xiao Qiang's fault. In ancient times, the stability of the family home and palace was also very important.
Men have their own ways of doing things, and women have their own feminine ways. Don't underestimate the ways of these little women.
Sometimes, the men who are playing tricks on the court may not be able to play with these little girls. They appear to be weak, but in fact they have great potential.
Wu Zetian was also a little girl at first. Li Shimin could have imagined that she would be with Li Zhi and defeat the Queen Xiao and the Changsun family.
I'm afraid that if I heard about it, I would just take it as a joke and laugh out loud, right?
Zhu Biao didn't take it seriously at the time, but now he was shocked.
Putting aside everything else, when fighting in the harem, the first thing to fight is the heirs.
If anyone dares to touch his hero, then he will take their head.
"Li Jin, find someone to keep an eye on Concubine Lu and the people around her."
After saying that, Zhu Biao looked at his wife again, his tone soft and trusting.
"I decided to let you educate Yun Wen. I don't trust Mrs. Lu."
Lu has little cleverness but no great wisdom, so it is difficult to teach outstanding children.
