When Chen Zuyi, the pirate king, beheaded, he was simply killing a chicken to show the monkeys. Let's show it to the small Western countries. If they dare to cause trouble again, this will be the fate.
All the officials of the fifth rank and above of Quanying Tianfu have arrived. They first go to the censor to sign in, and then find their own seats and sit down.
Xu Qin's position is in the circle of nobles. He has been struggling fiercely in the past two days. Yu Linglong, the little fairy, went crazy because of a poem. Now she is a little sleepy. She leans on the chair and wraps her cloak tightly and falls asleep.
After a while, the sound of ritual music sounded, and Xu Qin was pushed awake.
"Young Master, wake up." A voice called him.
When he opened his eyes, he saw a tall man with a beard, wearing the uniform of a military attache. He didn't react for a moment.
Prince Luanjia has arrived. Chairman Zhu did not come today, so he sent his eldest son, Prince Zhu Gaochi of the Ming Dynasty.
According to the kinship relationship, Xu Qin should call him his eldest cousin. This is the biological eldest son of eldest aunt Xu Miaoyun.
Fat, plump, and smiling like Maitreya Buddha. But he is too fat and needs help when walking. In appearance he is a kind man. After all, what bad intentions can a fat man have?
All the envoys who came with Zheng He were here, not only from the small Western countries, but also from Korea, the Wonu Kingdom, Oara, and Tatar. Anyway, all the monkeys were here.
After an order was given to read out the charges, Chen Zuyi was chopped down with a knife. The envoys from other countries were finished after reading this. The envoys from the small Western countries cheered for joy.
The Ming Dynasty helped them get rid of one harm, but Chen Zuyi caused them so much harm. Xu Qin also wanted to get involved with these Western envoys and build relationships with them to prepare for business.
At this time, a eunuch trotted up to him.
"Prince, please come over, Prince Xu." The young eunuch said respectfully.
Xu Qinxin said, what does this cousin prince want to do with her? But let’s get over it first.
"Your Highness, Xu Qin, has met." Xu Qin bowed down to greet him.
In the past few days, he had learned that there were not many people kneeling down to worship in the Ming Dynasty. Only used for important celebrations or pilgrimages.
Normally, when you see the emperor bending down and holding your hands in a respectful manner, that's enough. The slogan "Long live, long live, long live, long live, long live, long live, long live" was something that came after the Qing Dynasty. It's not popular yet, and shouting it out is just flattering.
"Cousin, come with me. Your Majesty asked me to take you into the palace." Prince Zhu Gaochi smiled with a smile on his face, just like Maitreya Buddha. Softly spoken.
"Cousin Prince, are you good or bad? Your Majesty, why did you suddenly think of me? You know I am afraid of entering the palace recently." Xu Qin lowered his head and chatted with the prince.
"I don't know, but judging from your face, you are probably in trouble. Think about it yourself." The prince said with a smile.
Xu Qin thought about what bad things he had done recently? What's worse, it couldn't be that boy named Xu Jingchang, Duke of Dingguo.
"Cousin, if the thunder is too loud soon, please help me carry it." Xu Qin saw his fat cousin and hurried over to ask for help.
"I can't bear it. Hey, my cousin recently heard that there is a trend called 'True Face and Soap Jade'. Have you heard of it?" The prince changed the subject.
Xu Qinxin said she was waiting for me here. The fat boy was openly asking for a bribe.
"Cousin, that shouldn't be the case. Auntie has to give it to the Crown Princess if she loses anyone." Xu Qin asked suspiciously.
"Hey, my aunt naturally gave it to me, but there are so many people in this family. It's not enough." The prince touched his triple chin and sighed.
This is wrong. Xu Qin grinned. There is something wrong with the prince.
"You can give three boxes to my cousin, who will help me carry the thunder later, otherwise I will give it directly to the princess's cousin-in-law." Xu Qin said in a low voice.
"Look, our cousins are out of touch. How can I still refuse to save him? But have you forgotten something?" The prince laughed like Maitreya Buddha.
What did I forget? Xu Qin slapped his head. He had been sucked stupidly by that little goblin Linglong in the past two days, and he had forgotten the most important aspect of his plan.
Now that the dead King of Zhongshan has been used up, it’s time to use the living Chairman of Ming Dynasty. Why haven't I sent anything to the chairman's family in the past two days?
"Damn it, how could I forget this? Then ask my sister-in-law to do me a favor and go to the palace? My cousin has gone to the palace, so I can give you soap to my cousin."
Xu Qin began to confuse.
"Six boxes, it won't work without this number." The prince said righteously.
Xu Qin nodded to sign the deal, and quickly called his number one henchman Xu Fugui to cooperate with the prince's family to move the soap.
Then he followed Prince Luan into the palace. When he arrived at the Wuying Palace, Zhu Di was handling affairs. The six ministers and several Wenyuan Pavilion bachelors were there.
"Hey, isn't this the great poet Xu Xiaoguo Gong? Why have you slept comfortably in the brothel these two days?" Zhu Di said in a strange tone while drinking tea and looking at Xu Qin who came in.
Xu Qinxin said that you should pay attention to the occasion. What kind of place is this? This is where Wuying Hall handles government affairs. Is it okay to talk like this?
"Your Majesty, I can't help it. In order to pay off the debt, I even resorted to beauty tricks. By the way, I missed a little bit of talent." Xu Qin pretended to sigh and said, not forgetting to put gold on his face.
"Okay, I think you, Poet Xu, are justified. Ning Guogong impeached you for betraying your ancestors, cheating and cheating in the name of the King of Zhongshan, and asked me to remove you from the Xu family. Are you still justified in this matter?"
Zhu Di put down his tea bowl and stared at him and asked.
"Your Majesty, this is purely a frame-up. Duke Ding is just because he couldn't snatch a woman away from me. I have a grudge and want to accuse him of deceiving you." Xu Qin first poured dirty water on Duke Ding, and then accused him of cheating.
Naturally, he didn't expect it to have any effect, and being jealous in a brothel was not a good reputation. Anyway, his reputation was ruined, but his reputation as Duke Ding was still valuable.
It's enough to make Chairman Zhu sick. He can hurt a thousand people and lose zero soldiers. This business is a good one.
"Hmph, I think you are a clever talker. You posted this paper everywhere. How do you explain it? Are you claiming that you are not using the name of King of Zhongshan to deceive you?"
Zhu Di had already known all the situation from Ji Gang, and he still had a leaflet in his hand.
He knew what the paper said was absolute nonsense. He had fought with his father-in-law Xu Da, how could he have such a "true face"? There is no reason to believe that the enemy has the upper hand.
If this thing really existed, wouldn't all those military tactics become nonsense? Take a shower before fighting and you will know where the enemy's weaknesses are.
"Isn't that right? Your Majesty will know after you give it a try. I happened to bring two pieces with you. You are also tired from dealing with government affairs. Why don't you wash your face and relax?"
Xu Qin said and took out two bars of soap from his arms. The little eunuch immediately passed it on to Zhu Di.
With a look from Zhu Di, the little eunuch immediately took him down. Xu Qin knew that the eunuch had gone to wash his face. How can one come into contact with the emperor's things without trying them out first?
This was a safety precaution. After a while, the young eunuch came in with two maids. The hair is slightly damp, obviously from having just washed her face.
Zhu Di looked at it and smelled a fresh aroma. So I changed my clothes and tried it on. Sure enough, I felt a little more energetic and tasted good.
What's more important is that he felt a little ashamed when he looked at the dirt washed off. Do you discuss government affairs with courtiers like this every day?
Look at the clean hands and cheeks. I thought this thing was a good thing. Suddenly it occurred to me. That piece of paper said that women can use it to have smooth skin and be fragrant all over their bodies?
"Since you are not cheating, I will not expel you from your membership. But you are a bastard. How can you easily sell the secret recipe left by King Zhongshan? You are an unfilial thing."
Zhu Di cursed angrily.
"Your Majesty, there's nothing I can do. You asked me to pay off my debt of more than 400,000 taels of silver a month. I have no choice but to sell the formula." Xu Qin called out to Chong Tianqu.
Zhu Di frowned.
"Asshole, isn't it allowed to sell property? Now you are even selling your ancestral property?" Zhu Di said angrily.
"Your Majesty, this is not family property. The formula is not family property. It is only when it is produced. Besides, it is only natural to pay back debts. I am also anxious." Xu Qin had already thought about it and hurriedly explained.
Zhu Di laughed angrily and asked me to say something? He subconsciously glanced at Jinyiwei commander Ji Gang.
The prince stood up slowly.
"Father, I think that since this thing was left by King Zhongshan, does it belong to our family?" Zhu Gaochi asked softly and slowly.
"Huh? That makes sense." Zhu Di looked at his fat son in surprise. Can this be understood this way?
There seems to be nothing wrong. My queen is the daughter of King Zhongshan. Who dares to say that she has no inheritance rights.
Xu Qin looked at Zhu Gaochi, could you be more shameless? That's not what we said on the road. Sure enough, fat people have thick skin.
"Let's do it, cousin. I don't want my family's share, as long as you guarantee the expenses of the concubines in the harem." Zhu Gaochi finally gave in.
Xu Qinxin said yes, there are great benefits in flattering the royal family. There are probably many benefits to flattering Chairman Zhu.
But there are dozens or hundreds of concubines in the harem, plus they love beauty. From time to time, the tricks have to be changed. How can I afford this?
"Your Majesty, how about selling the formula to the royal family at a discount? How about two hundred thousand taels? The royal family produces it themselves, so this business will definitely make a profit."
Xu Qin said.
Zhu Di thought about it and thought it was not very reliable. Moreover, a reputation for competing with the people is not good for the royal family. I still won’t buy this thing.
"Forget the formula, I can't compete with the people for profit. You should sell the formula yourself." Zhu Di picked up the pen and waved his hand, indicating that Xu Qin could get out.
Xu Qin walked out of Wuying Hall and found that he seemed to have been deceived by the father and son. Especially the fat prince, this was a solid chop.
Look at this father and son, they are a perfect match. It didn't take long for him to figure it out, and he still wanted to be grateful.
Look at the old father in your own family. It would be nice not to cause trouble for yourself.
But it’s hard to say who takes advantage. Brother Prince, you really don’t know what porcelain marketing is.
I don’t know when the Crown Princess will enter the palace. My planning project can probably proceed to the next stage.
