"What the emperor said is the holy will, do you dare to reject it?"

The King of Han, Zhu Gaoxu, stood aside angrily, as if he was very dissatisfied with Wang Siqi's words, and there was a bit of unkindness in his eyes.

It doesn't matter whether Wang Siqi can be his.

The important thing is that if this person is really talented, then it will be a good thing for him if he can get this person away from his elder brother, so Zhu Gaoxu took the opportunity and of course chose to step forward as soon as possible to fan the flames.

Zhu Di also said with great interest: "Why? People always say that birds choose good trees to roost in. Baoyuan Bureau is not a good place. It is far worse than the Imperial Hospital I promised you."

"Could it be that you think I'm undermining your talents by asking you to go to Tai Hospital?"

Bad, of course bad.

As long as Wang Siqi is not a fool, he will know the difference between the two.

But compared to being a medical officer, Wang Siqi cared more about the degree of freedom of Baoyuan Bureau that was absolutely unmatched in the palace, so he quickly explained: "Your Majesty, I don't feel that I am incompetent, it's just that I am not an official where I am.

Things that benefit the country and the people may vary depending on your status, but everything you do and say is for the sake of the imperial court and to share your worries, the emperor."

These words made Zhu Di, who had always thought that Wang Siqi was just a prodigal son of Prince Qingyuan's friend's family, be a little dazed for a moment. After being silent for a while, he slowly said: "If all the officials in the world have your level of consciousness, why don't they?

We won’t fight openly and secretly all day long, and there will be constant internal friction.”

"Since you don't want to change, then don't change it."

The King of Han, Zhu Gaoxu, who was on the side, was a little anxious. He hurriedly walked to Zhu Di and said, "Father, my mother's condition is urgent right now. Since this son has such talent, why not stay in the Imperial Hospital?"

Zhu Gaochi saw this.

If he still doesn't understand, then he is not worthy of being the prince.

He didn't understand that Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han, wanted to use Zhu Di's hand to weaken the cards in his hand, that is, to weaken the power of his own faction.

So he quickly said bluntly: "Father, Wang Siqi's position as supervisor in Baoyuan Bureau has indeed not been wasted. On the contrary, he has developed Baoyuan Bureau in a good way."

"Oh? Tell me in detail."

Zhu Di was obviously interested.

So when Zhu Gaochi saw this, he organized Wang Siqi's idle craftsmen in Baoyuan Bureau, except for those necessary for coinage, to use the brewing process to not only develop alcohol, but more importantly, he also started selling alcohol.

Business.

Zhu Gaoxu, the king of Han Dynasty, listened to what Zhu Gaochi said.

Suddenly his eyes turned red.

Selling wine!

This is a real business. Isn’t this a great way to make money?

Staying in the East Palace is fine.

Nowadays, no one is short of money, no matter whether they are the emperor, the court, or the common people in small families, they all want to have more money in their hands.

What's more, they are princes who don't have many serious ways to make money.

So he hurriedly said: "Father, this Wang Siqi actually uses the imperial craftsmen to make profits for himself. In my opinion, he is clearly lining his own pockets!"

Zhu Di's eyes were also much colder.

He looked at Wang Siqi calmly and said, "If you can't explain it clearly to me today, then your father will come and I will have to deal with you."

Hear this.

Wang Siqi couldn't help but complain in his heart.

This Zhu Gaochi is really cute and silly. At this time, he actually shook off everything he had done during this time without any scruples. Fortunately, he did not come into contact with Baoyuan Chenjie and the internal affairs of Baoyuan Bureau.

Things, otherwise we might be able to create some big trouble.

So Wang Siqi stepped forward quickly.

Facing Zhu Di, he began to explain: "Your Majesty, I am not lining my own pockets. The main reason is that Baoyuan Bureau is poor... If you want to better repay the Emperor's grace, you must have money to do things."

"Nonsense! The Baoyuan Bureau is related to the imperial court's minting of coins. As long as the coins can be minted stably, what do you need so much money for?"

"But the lives of craftsmen are hard!"

“Much better than before!”

“It’s far worse than outside!”

In the confrontation between Zhu Di and Wang Siqi, there was a faint smell of gunpowder.

At this time, Zhu Di said coldly: "Since you are a craftsman, you naturally have to work for the court. Could it be that what you did in Baoyuan Bureau did not bring you any benefit?"

"Your Majesty, since I went to Baoyuan Bureau, I have spent tens of thousands of taels of silver just on making alcohol and building a winery. These were all brought by me from home...but I didn't use any of the silver coined by the imperial court.

"

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Gaoxu on the side was stunned.

No money in your own pocket?

Then East Palace must have made money.

So Zhu Gaoxu said bluntly: "Then you didn't make money for the prince? You said you didn't enrich yourself, who will testify for you?"

...

Just then.

A voice suddenly appeared from the side: "I bear witness."

"I will also testify for this boy."

Not far away, the eunuch looked at the two men who had just barged in with a somewhat bitter expression, simply because these two men were Wang You, the uncle of Qingyuan, and Chen Xian, the uncle of Rongchang in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Di saw the two coming.

He couldn't help but laugh and said: "I just said, it's time for you to come. I have brought your sons to the palace. Can you, the guy, sit still in the palace?"

"The Emperor is indeed a god in predicting events."

"Come on."

Wang You looked at Wang Siqi aside and saw no change, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief in his heart.

"You two are testifying for this boy. I would like to hear how you, a father and a godfather, are going to testify for your son."

Although he said the words in a business-like manner, in fact, Zhu Di's face completely believed what Wang Siqi said, and he still had a bit of a smile on his face when he asked.

Wang You said nothing.

Chen Xian, who has always had a fiery personality, couldn't help but said loudly: "This guy is in the wine-selling business with my unlucky son. When he came back today, he told me that he actually sold 10,000 taels of silver in one day. This is terrible.

It almost scared me."

"Ten thousand taels?"

Zhu Di was stunned.

"Yes! Your Majesty, who knew that you could earn so much money from this business, right! When I first heard about this, your expression was the same as yours now."

"How can you make so much money?"

"Is selling wine so profitable?"

Chen and Wang did not speak, but turned their attention to Wang Siqi who was aside.

"Your Majesty... this wine is indeed a little profitable..."

"A little? Do you know how much ten thousand taels of silver is?"

"Know.."

"Then what more can you say?"

When Zhu Gaochi was talking, he just said that Wang Siqi had built a wine shop in Baoyuan Bureau. Now he could not only sell alcohol, but also sell some wine on the market.
