Chapter 5 Disguise
Princess Anqing is also aware of this matter.
It's just that Princess Anqing is not as big-hearted as Tang He.
He Xi had just returned to his cabin. Princess Anqing came up and said, "Shouqian's surname is Zhu after all. Husband, if you are like this, it will be very difficult for my father to do this if he knows about it."
He Xi smiled slightly and said, "Whoever it is? If you make my little princess angry, I will never let her go."
He Xi's words made Princess Anqing very happy.
But He Xi didn't have to fool Princess Anqing. It's just some cruel politics that He Xi doesn't want Princess Anqing to understand. Princess Anqing knew that their lineage had a grudge against the lineage of King Nanchang. But Princess Anqing has some problems in understanding.
In her mind, these grievances were just between relatives. But I can't understand that the emperor's family affairs often lead to death.
He Xi has no intention of breaking Princess Anqing's fantasy.
So, let’s just keep this thing vague.
Princess Anqing said: "I know you are doing it for me. But I don't want to do this thing anymore. However, I am very happy about what happened today. If my father punishes you for this thing, I will tell my mother."
"The Queen Mother will definitely help."
He Xi said: "Okay, I will rely on my wife to protect my husband."
He Xi knew this and could not hide it from Zhu Yuanzhang. But he also knew that Zhu Yuanzhang would not say anything. Will pretend not to know. After all, Zhu Shouqian's current appearance is really unlikable.
Princess Anqing said: "Then, are you still going to see King Jingjiang?"
He Xi said: "I can't see him anymore."
Princess Anqing said: "Then, what will happen to you? Aren't you going to send him to a feudal country?"
He Xi said: "It's okay. Nothing is as important as yours. Don't you want a private visit incognito? I'll go with you."
Naturally, He Xi did not forget his own business. But in He Xi's view, sending King Jingjiang to the country was not the first priority. Especially in Jingjiang, the king is restless. Unwilling to cooperate.
Even more so.
He Xi felt that haste makes waste, and the more he took King Jingjiang seriously, the more King Jingjiang took him seriously. On the contrary, the more difficult it is to handle, the King of Jingjiang must first be governed docilely. Make him be obedient. The next thing. So that we can continue to do it.
King Jingjiang is the vassal king after all, and He Xi's treatment of King Jingjiang before was considered to be the limit. It can't really be a torture device.
But there are many ways that don't involve physical harm. It was enough to make King Jingjiang unbearable. Especially since He Xi had already broken King Jingjiang's psychological defense before. He planned to leave King Jingjiang alone for a few months and make some other arrangements along the way.
So that King Jingjiang would always live in fear. It will be easy to handle in the future.
Since the matter of King Jingjiang needs time to brew.
He Xi prioritizes other tasks, such as private interviews on Weibo.
In fact, He Xi's private interview incognito was better described as an investigation into Songjiang Prefecture's textile industry. This is related to He Xi's future plans, regarding cotton origin, textile scale, textile technology, etc. If He Xi doesn't go and see for himself, he can't rest assured.
And he left Princess Anqing alone. Princess Anqing absolutely does not allow it.
He Xi simply said it was a private visit incognito. Take Princess Anqing with you. It can be regarded as a matter of public and private convenience. However, He Xi's so-called incognito private visit was actually not insignificant at all.
Princess Anqing didn't know what He Xi meant, but when she heard that He Xi was willing to take him for a private visit incognito, she was very happy and said: "Okay. Okay." Suddenly, Princess Anqing seemed to have thought of something and said: "That soup Will uncle agree?"
He Xi said: "Don't worry, leave this matter to me."
------
If it was purely a sightseeing tour, Tang He would naturally not agree. But if it was a matter of public or private matters, Tang He wouldn't say anything. After all, a person as transparent as Tang He wouldn't meddle in other people's business.
Just have a decent reason.
Of course, there is one thing that absolutely cannot go wrong.
That is the Anqing problem.
He Xi originally planned to bring more than a hundred people. But with a wave of Tang He's hand, hundreds more people were added. Guard the perimeter. Not with He Xi and others, but within a mile or two of He Xi. If something happens, a cloud-piercing arrow will come to join them immediately.
With such a huge momentum, it doesn't look like a private visit incognito.
But there is no way.
In fact, it's okay in the Jiangnan area, a prosperous place in the world, although there is a dark side in the market. But not much. There are a few companions around. Most local gangsters would not dare to provoke them. But in the northwest, there are many desolate places in the north. Except in the city, I don’t know how to write about Wang Fa.
Don't talk about incognito private visits. Even when the number of people is relatively small, doing business in the wild is a very dangerous thing. If you don’t believe me, please read this story. How many businessmen went out to do business and had an accident, which led to a story.
If you are in the city of Nanjing, it would be okay if you take less people with you. But out in the field, it’s better to be cautious.
Sometimes, when something really goes wrong, as long as the murderer does it cleanly, it's a no-brainer case. Even the noble Tianhuang has no choice.
Therefore, He Xi could only compromise.
The group of them disembarked at Liujiagang. Tang He and others continued to go to Ningbo by boat. It is estimated that for a long time, Ningbo will be used as the center to patrol the maritime areas of Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong and other places.
He Xi and others changed clothes in Liujiagang.
He Xi and Princess Anqing transformed into a newlywed couple.
He Xi said to Yao Guangxiao: "Brother Yao, the people around me don't have much experience in the market. Then I ask you, brother Yao, to be the guide for me and the princess."
Yao Guangxiao smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, I wonder what you want to see?"
He Xi said: "Bu."
Yao Guangxiao said: "If you want to see silk, you should go to Suzhou. There is no better silk in the world than Suzhou. However, if you want to see cotton, then you have to go to Songjiang. I think you don't want to disturb the local area."
He Xi said: "If the local area is alarmed, how many real things can I see?"
Yao Guangxiao pondered for a moment and said, "Let's do this. My lord, just pretend to be a newlywed and come to Songjiang to buy property."
He Xi said: "Oh, I don't know, is there any explanation for this?"
Yao Guangxiao said: "Sir, since you want to see cloth, the best way is to be a buyer. But you can't pretend to be a cloth merchant no matter what."
He Xi and Princess Anqing looked at each other. Although they had tried their best to dress up. I changed all the clothes that could represent my identity. But he still has a touch of nobility, and he doesn't look like a businessman at first glance.
If you pretend to be too fake, people won't tell the truth.
Yao Guangxiao said: "Your Excellency, you can pretend to be the concubine of a marquis of a certain family. He has just gotten married and cannot inherit the family's property. But my parents gave me a large sum of money to let you and your wife buy property. The so-called property is nothing more than food, clothing, housing, transportation, and land. Of course it’s good. However, it’s not possible to make money with stable land. Your Majesty needs to find another way to make money. That is the cloth mill, and finally you can recruit a certain big shot to make tiger skins. Only in this way will the cloth mill below be more willing to join you.”
He Xi listened. Thoughtful.
He was thinking about the combination of power and assets. He heard the implication of Yao Guangxiao's words. Many workshop owners may not lack money, but they must lack backers. Without a backer, there is no sense of security.
If He Xi reveals his identity. It is estimated that many people are willing to trust the princess's property for no money.
He Xi secretly thought: "The reform of the Ming Dynasty has a long way to go."
There is no absolute fairness in the world. But try to keep a level playing field. Otherwise, all business organizations will be vassals of the powerful. It is difficult to develop technology.
But how to break this chain?
Princess Anqing didn't think much about it. She was very happy about this action. She almost jumped up and said: "Okay, okay. Let me think about it. My last name is Xu, and I am the niece of Uncle Xu's family. My name is Xu Shuyun." Your surname is Li. This is the concubine of Cao Guogong's family, let's call him Li Xi. If I had known that I was going to play here, I should have asked Uncle Xu and the eldest brother of the Li family for some tokens when I left Beijing."
Princess Anqing regarded this matter as a very fun thing. It’s simply unsatisfactory.
