Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Wang Gou'er and didn't know whether to be angry or happy for a moment.

"Your Majesty, that's what His Highness King Wu said." Wang Gou'er said with a sad face.

I thought that Lao Zhu would be furious, but I didn't expect that Zhu Yuanzhang just waved his hand, "Forget it, he is so motivated, we can't hold him back."

Wang Gouer was stunned for a moment, then his two kicks were not in vain?

Also, what is the meaning of His Majesty’s expression of relief?

Zhu Yuanzhang is very annoyed now. The Huaixi lineage is getting stronger, and Li Shanren is getting more and more swollen.

When he is the prime minister, the world belongs to the people of Huaixi, not the people of the world.

In fact, he already had a list in his hand. If his temper was based on his past, he would definitely kill them all.

But the killing was too ruthless, the people's hearts were withered, and the current life of the court was indeed difficult.

He was also in a state of confusion.

Hu Guoyong is actually the best candidate to replace Li Shanren.

But if you throw away Li Shanren rashly, something will happen.

Coupled with what happened in Zhongdu, he hesitated for a moment.

It would be great if the prince was here, we could discuss it together.

But now that the prince is away, he can't find anyone to discuss it with.

As a result, by some strange coincidence, he thought of Zhu Jun.

I really hope there is someone now who can solve the problems of these refugees.

Although Zhu Jun's method of providing relief through work was good, the problem was that the court did not have enough money and food.

There is a steady stream of disaster victims. If war supplies are used, it will be very troublesome if a war breaks out.

It is a good thing if you can afford it, but if you cannot afford it, it will be a big trouble and will bring down the court.

Therefore, this is the reason why he has not implemented the work-for-relief program.

So much so that he has now stopped the construction of the palace, even in Zhongdu.

The only thing that hasn't stopped is the construction of the city wall.

"We are really confused. Can he solve the trouble that we can't solve?" Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head, thinking of the hundreds of thousands of taels of money seized from Shen Wansan's house.

If used, it would be enough to save 200,000 refugees.

But the problem is that prices have been rising. At most, the official warehouses can be used to stabilize food prices, but this still cannot solve the problem fundamentally.

Now that he has decided to let the Shen family go, he can't use his money.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh, "If the world is unified, why do we need these worries? The world is so big, and where are we afraid of them fleeing to?

Prince, please come back quickly, I am worried! "

...

Zhu Zhen spent the whole morning on tenterhooks, but Zhu Yuanzhang really didn't say anything, let alone beat Zhu Jun.

Zhu Jun glanced at the sundial outside the university hall, and it was almost noon. "Lao Ba, come out of the palace with us, and treat you to delicious food!"

"Brother Six, you will be late."

"Don't be afraid, a lunch break of more than an hour is enough!"

Zhu Yingxiong and Zhu Gaozhi on the side quickly came over, "Uncle Six, take us with you!"

"Not now, I'll take you to have fun tonight!" After saying that, Zhu Jun left anxiously.

He must rush to the lottery shop before the numbers are released, which is related to the future business of the lottery shop.

Zhu Zhen gritted his teeth and chased after him.

Little Fatty and Zhu Yingxiong had drooped faces, as if they had lost tens of thousands of taels.

Soon, the two arrived at the lottery shop. At this time, the door was crowded with people, all holding lottery tickets in their hands.

"Will the number be released or not?"

"You're not going to lie, are you?"

Many people shouted.

Zhu Jun quickly asked Li Jiba to get out the big turntable with the porcelain balls, and started turning it in front of everyone.

"Laoba, please report your number!"

"Brother Six, I..." Zhu Zhen felt very scared when he looked at so many people.

"Don't be afraid, be confident!" Zhu Jun looked at Zhu Zin with encouraging eyes.

Zhu Zhen gritted his teeth and tried hard not to let his feet tremble.

Soon, the turntable rotated, and everyone stared at the turntable.

Bah!

A red ball marked 'pick up' falls into the big turntable.

Zhu Zhen said loudly: "Ball No. 17!"

Everyone looked at the lottery tickets in their hands, and those who didn't win were dejected.

But the first person to win jumped up excitedly, "I won, I won!"

Many people cast envious looks.

Although there is no money for one account, it is finally a good start, right?

Soon, the second ball fell from the turntable, "Ball No. 6!"

Every time the ball dropped, someone would beat their chests or stamp their feet excitedly.

The exciting feeling of a live lottery draw cannot be experienced at all if you are not immersed in it.

In the crowd, Xu Tianshou sneered, he was going to win the first prize today!

Xu Miaojin felt that it was not good, "Wouldn't this be bad?"

"Crazy Zhu took away twelve thousand taels from our family. Presumably the capital he used to open the lottery shop came from our family.

It's just that the property returns to its original owner. What's wrong with that? "Xu Tianshou said.

Xu Miaojin sighed, "It's not like he won't pay it back!"

"Why, you can't bear it?"

"Who can't bear it!" Xu Miaojin hurriedly denied it.

"If you want to break off the engagement, just listen to me. This Madman Zhu is extremely competitive and has a gambling streak deep into his bones.

If he has no capital, he will naturally come to borrow money.

If you make another request when the time comes, he will definitely not refuse! "Xu Tianshou said.

Xu Miaojin frowned, "But he didn't mean to pester me!"

Zhu Jun went to the house that day and made it very clear. Not only did he not pester her, he also said he didn't like her.

"Have you forgotten the slap you received? You can't be the one to decide whether to break off the engagement. Madman Zhu must speak. Do you understand?" Xu Tianshou lowered his voice and said, "Am I going to harm you?"

Xu Miaojin was a little embarrassed, but after thinking about it, she felt that what Xu Tianshou said made sense, "That's the only way it can be!"

Soon, all seven numbers were drawn. Zhu Jun smiled and asked someone to post the numbers on the door, and then said loudly: "The time limit for claiming the prize is two days. After two days, if no one comes to claim the prize, the lottery will be invalid. I hope you will tell me by word of mouth!

Also, don’t try to forge lottery tickets. Once it is found that it is a forgery, it will be sent directly to Yingtian Mansion! "

Everyone shrank their necks. At this time, a middle-aged man in the crowd said timidly: "King Wu, the villain seems to have hit five numbers!"

"Go in and verify the lottery ticket!"

The middle-aged man hesitated a little, but gritted his teeth and walked in. After a while, he came out with twenty taels of silver in his hand.

"Thank you, His Highness King Wu!" The middle-aged man quickly knelt down to Zhu Jun to express his gratitude, and then said with tears in his eyes: "With this money, my mother can be saved!"

Zhu Jun quickly helped him up and asked him what happened.

The middle-aged man said that his mother was seriously ill and had already emptied his family fortune, so he took a gamble with his only two cents. Unexpectedly, he actually won the bet.

After hearing this, Zhu Jun felt his filial piety, rewarded him with another fifty taels with a wave of his hand, and sent people to escort him home with drums and gongs.
