Chapter 691;
Entering Beijing
Author: Ran Xi Nian
"Yes, if you are busy, ask your second uncle to help take care of it. If not, your uncle can also help."
Mr. Lu also realized that Lu Yaoyao didn't have time to manage this thing.
"Grandpa, I have already decided on this matter."
"Now the Lu family's business is in charge of my uncle. I plan to give my second uncle full responsibility for my construction company. There are many things going on here, so we can't be distracted."
"And I have another purpose for doing this."
After that, she revealed some of her other plans.
The Lu family's business is now very good and they are making a lot of money. This is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing. After all, who doesn't want to take a bite of such a big piece of fat?
It's just that because of her presence now, those people can only watch and drool and dare not take action against the Lu family.
But what about the future? There is no guarantee that she will not take action. No one can say what will happen in the future. She cannot guarantee that everything will go smoothly for herself, right?
So he planned to completely bind the Lu family and the royal family together.
As long as the royal family can get a stable income, they will ensure the safe operation of the Lu family. In this way, even if she does not go smoothly in the future, the Lu family will still have the royal family as the backing, and no one will dare to provoke her.
After hearing her plan, the three of them, Mr. Lu, were extremely moved and grateful at the same time.
"The Lu family is so lucky to have you."
Mr. Lu was very emotional.
"As for the cooperation, I plan to go to the emperor to discuss it tomorrow. I should be able to get it, so this matter still needs to be managed by my second uncle."
Having understood what she meant, the three of them looked at each other and nodded.
The next day, Lu Yaoyao went directly to the capital.
Prince Jin has not been to Chengyuan Villa for several days. He heard that there was another moth in Beidi.
After what happened last time, Duke Zhen Guo also understood that Emperor Hongwen wanted him to fight with Prince Li's Mansion.
But even if they understand it, there is no way to resolve it. After all, their cooperation has been taking advantage of each other from the beginning, and they all have their own agendas.
Later, Xiao Cheng's incident came out, and the two sides had already taken over their mortal enemies. It was impossible to continue to cooperate, and neither side could trust the other.
Even if both sides know what's going on, they still have to fight.
Especially Prince Li, if he didn't fight and didn't follow Emperor Hongwen's ideas, he might be captured directly by Emperor Hongwen at any time.
For their own safety, and at the same time, killing the Duke of Zhen would also allow them to completely control the Northland. This battle must be carried out.
The two sides started fighting under Emperor Hongwen's half-yin and half-yang strategy.
Seeing that impeachment was useless, the Duke of Zhen was too lazy to waste time and immediately started to use all his connections in the North to try to get rid of the prince and his son.
Prince Li and the Crown Prince were naturally not willing. During this period, he also gathered some people, and the two sides continued to compete with each other.
If this is just an internal fight, then there is no bottom line for what Duke Zhen Guo did later. He actually secretly found the leader of the Xirong rebels, promised huge profits, and wanted to cooperate with him, and he already targeted Prince Li.
The reason Prince Li came to the North this time was to suppress them.
The Xirong rebels at the front were still very worried, and even said they were ready to get some benefits and escape first.
Now that they were found by the Duke of Zhen, they immediately saw hope. Without the secret support of the Duke of Zhen, the Xirong rebels not only did not escape, but became even more arrogant and attacked and robbed the border town many times.
Prince Li always failed, and he was even ambushed once or twice, resulting in the loss of many men.
As soon as such an incident happened, officials immediately wrote to report it. In just a short period of time, Prince Li and the Crown Prince were impeached for various reasons.
Why did he secretly collude with the Xirong rebels, so he deliberately let things go? He has great ambitions and lacks talents, etc.
And Prince Li and the Crown Prince had no way to explain themselves for these crimes.
Could it be said that this was all done by the Duke of Zhen?
Now people all over the country know that Zhen Guogong died in the fire.
If he says it, how will he explain it later?
This was not because of the assistance of the Xirong rebels, as well as the impeachment complaints filed by the Duke of Zhen and some common people and upright officials in the North. During this period, Prince Li's reputation in the North and his prestige in the capital were greatly reduced.
Some ministers even expressed that the crown prince, Prince Li, could not bear the heavy responsibility, and suggested that Emperor Hongwen should replace him with someone to lead the Northern Territory and annihilate the Xirong rebels.
When someone spoke, the people of King Ning and King Zhao were very happy, and they spared no effort to add fuel to the fire.
However, Emperor Hongwen had his own plans and was unmoved. He even thought this was a good idea and wanted to use the help of Duke Zhen to deal with Prince Li's Mansion first.
Then we'll deal with the Duke of Zhen.
Of course, he also believed that Prince Li's Mansion would not sit still and wait for death.
No, news came out earlier that many officials in the Northland have close contacts with the Xirong rebels, and there is even evidence.
Because of this revelation, many people from the Zhen Guogong faction were arrested.
With the lesson learned last time, even if Prince Li was angry, he would never swing a butcher's knife at these people in private.
But he didn't make it easy for these people. Almost all of them were taken to jail and greeted. Those who were members of the Zhenguo Gong faction were also repeatedly suppressed by him during this period.
Anyway, neither side is letting the other fight, and both sides are consuming each other.
This was what Emperor Hongwen wanted to see the most. He thought that when they were almost exhausted, he would attack them all in thunder.
But who is going to win it? Of course it has to be King Jin, so King Jin is also very busy during this period.
"Your Majesty, Princess Wanfu wishes to see you."
"Yao Yao is here?"
Emperor Hongwen looked surprised, and Prince Jin, who was also in the imperial study, also looked surprised.
"Let her in quickly."
Not long after, Lu Yaoyao walked in from outside and first saluted Emperor Hongwen.
"Prince Jin is here too."
"Well, I have some things to deal with. Why are you free to come to Beijing today?"
King Jin was quite curious.
He hasn't been to Chengyuan Villa for a while, so he doesn't know much about Lu Yaoyao's recent busy schedule.
"I have a business and I plan to cooperate with the royal family."
What she is talking about here is with the royal family, not with His Majesty.
Both of them understood what she meant. Emperor Hongwen asked with a smile, "What kind of business is this?"
"Not long ago, I moved house. Many dignitaries moved to the capital. They all took a fancy to my mountainside villa. They knew that the eldest princess and His Majesty wanted to buy it, so they were tempted."
"During this period, nearly 30 companies have registered with me, all of them building villas or something like that."
"I just plan to develop this business."
With that said, she took out her plan and handed it to Wang De.
After Wang De took it, he quickly handed it to Emperor Hongwen. When he read it, Emperor Hongwen was quite surprised.
"Is this thing so profitable?"
It says that this villa will cost at least 10,000 to 20,000, or even 30,000 to 40,000 taels of silver.
