Chapter 41 Too greedy (2)

The capital camp suddenly changed its coach, and it was only fitting that Zhu Yunxi give a few words of explanation.

After the veterans left, he picked up the memorial again.

But I don’t know whether it’s because I’m still angry or a little tired, but I can’t stand those excerpts.

"Shame on you bastard!"

"The slave is here!"

Zhu Yunxi put down the memorial and said, "The weather is nice, let's arrange for someone to go out of the palace for a walk!"

"According to the order!"

Later, Zhu Yunxi changed into his regular clothes, and the eight accompanying guards outside were also ready.

"Where's Deng Ping?" Zhu Yunxi asked when he saw that the leader of the guards was not Deng Ping, but Hu Guan, another man with Jinwu Wei Qianshi on his body.

Hu Guan saluted, "Back to the emperor, Commander Deng was on duty last night and handed over to me this morning!"

He is also a noble and a relative of the emperor. He is one of the twenty generals of Huaixi and Hu Hai, the Marquis of Dongchuan. In terms of seniority, he is Zhu Yunxi's uncle. He is always his eleventh daughter and the consort of Princess Nankang.

The Hu family comes from a noble family and is full of loyalists. Hu Guan's eldest brother died in the war early in his life. The second brother was idle at home because of the Lan Yu case, but he was also a brave general at the beginning. But Hu Guan did not inherit the bravery of his father and brother in the family, and instead looked like

Like a white-faced scholar.

However, although he has no great potential, he is very affectionate with Princess Nankang and has a good life as a child. The old man also likes this son-in-law.

"Is your third child one month old?"

The carriage drove slowly outside the palace, and Zhu Yunxi said to Hu Guan who was following him in the carriage.

"Yes, the full moon banquet hosted by my predecessor!" Hu Guan and Princess Nankang now have two sons and one daughter, and their family is prosperous.

"Haha, you didn't say anything to me when you put out the full moon wine?" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile.

"Back to the emperor, it's not that I don't want to, it's because the princess told me that she didn't tell anyone and just had a meal with her family!" Hu Guan said with a smile, "The princess also said that there is no need for the whole city to know that the child is small, and then she closed it.

And etiquette is based on human feelings."

This couple is a low-key and cautious person.

Zhu Yunxi smiled in his heart and said, "Go back and tell Aunt Eleven that you will bring the child into the palace to show the old man another day." He said with a smile, "Really, just don't invite outsiders to the full moon banquet, and your own family will do the same.

Do not tell?"

Hu Guan grinned widely after hearing this, his face full of joy.

"He is a kind and kind man!"

Zhu Yunxi didn't have much contact with this uncle on weekdays, so he had a good impression after chatting a few words today.

This man's fate in history was not very good either. He first followed Li Jinglong on an expedition, but before his soldiers could form a strong formation, Zhu Di was captured alive.

Zhu Di wanted to win over him, but he still refused, so he decided that Jianwen, the old man's successor, was the orthodox one. Later, Zhu Di really didn't like him, so he found a fault and was forced to hang himself.

"Your Majesty, where do you want to go for a stroll?"

The carriage has driven out of the Meridian Gate and is approaching the downtown area outside the imperial city.

"Whatever!" Zhu Yunxi ordered and lowered the curtain.

Hu Guan thought for a while, looked at the guards around him, and had no idea for a moment.

"Where are we going?" He thought to himself, "It's not safe in a busy city with too many people, and you can't take the emperor to those fun places in the capital!"

Therefore, Zhu Yunxi's carriage was in the city, wandering aimlessly.

After a long time, Zhu Yunxi didn't see the carriage stop. He opened the curtain in surprise and said, "Why do you keep strolling?"

"My lord, I wonder where you want to go, Your Majesty?" Hu Guan said honestly.

"This man!" Zhu Yunxi shook his head in his heart, "If Li Jinglong is here, I don't know where I can go to relax my mind and feel comfortable..."

Thinking about it, he looked at the street scene, feeling that he was still wandering around the inner city where officials lived after a long time.

"Is there Iron Lion Street ahead?" Zhu Yunxi said.

"Yes!" Hu looked over there, "Half the street belongs to Cao Guogong and his family!"

"Just go to their house!" Zhu Yunxi said, "Don't make any noise!"

~~

In the greenhouse, next to several pots of blooming rose lace, Li Jinglong sat on a yellow wicker chair, covered with a blanket, staring at the ceiling with his eyes blankly.

The little maid walked in slowly and put down the tea gently.

Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Li Jinglong, "Please give me a squeeze, my legs are sore!"

The maid responded in a low voice, squatted beside him, put her feet on her knees, and squeezed them slowly with her beautiful hands.

"Hey!" Li Jinglong sighed and raised his feet, "It's boring!"

As he spoke, his big feet followed the maid's collar...

"Master!" the butler rushed in.

"Why are you so flustered?" Li Jinglong suddenly cursed, "I finally got the energy for a while..."

"Master, the emperor is here!"

Boom, Li Jinglong's big foot stepped on the maid's head and ran out in two steps.

Hu Guan was walking in front with others, and he felt his eyes flashing, and suddenly something rushed directly in front of him.

"Cao..."

"Prince-in-law!" Li Jinglong took Hu Guan's hand and stared at him, "Long live the prince!"

"Back there!" Hu Guan couldn't stand the look in Li Jinglong's eyes, and it took a lot of effort to pull his hand out.

Then there was another flower in front of him, and Li Jinglong ran out again.

~~

Zhu Yunxi was looking at the rows of tall buildings in the backyard of Li Jinglong's house.

Generally, this kind of building is not occupied by people, but is used as a warehouse for the family.

"The guilty minister, Li Jinglong, comes to see the emperor!"

Zhu Yunxi looked away and fell on Li Jinglong's face. The man's beard was unshaven, as if he had aged many years overnight.

"I didn't know that the emperor was here." Li Jinglong's eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, tears fell down as he spoke, and he burst into tears, "I thought that I would never see the emperor again in this life, but I didn't expect that you would suddenly...

..”

"Never see you again?" Zhu Yunxi looked at him, "Are you going to die?"

"The emperor asked me to die, so I will go right here!" Li Jinglong kowtowed.

Zhu Yunxi looked at him and said, "Well, let's go!"

"Ah??Ah??" Li Jinglong was stunned.

"Get up, you look like a human being, crying and wiping your tears every time you get older!" Zhu Yunxi scolded, "Are you promising?"

Li Jinglong wiped his tears and followed Zhu Yunxi.

Seeing Zhu Yunxi enter the flower room, he quickly stepped forward and wiped the wicker chair he had just made, then spread a blanket and let Zhu Yunxi sit down.

The flowers in the flower room were in full bloom and warm as spring. Zhu Yunxi looked around and said, "How about you enjoy it? It's such a nice place. It's so nice to sit in a rocking chair, read a book, drink tea, and sleep in when you have nothing to do!"

"Your Majesty, I was wrong!" Poof, Li Jinglong knelt down again.

Zhu Yunxi frowned and said, "Where did you go wrong?"

Li Jinglong choked up and said, "I couldn't sleep last night, tossing and turning, thinking for a long time."

"I am the co-organizer appointed by the emperor. I help the emperor handle affairs. No matter what happens or who is involved, I must report everything to the emperor. You should not have the petty thought of not wanting to offend others, let alone make your own decisions.

!”

After saying that, he took two steps on his knees and kowtowed, "I forgot my duty and always wanted to take it out when something happened. I completely failed to understand Lord Long Live's painstaking efforts and didn't think about Lord Long Live!"

"I... woo woo woo..." Li Jinglong cried loudly, "I'm sorry for your kindness in cultivating me, and I'm even more sorry for your trust in me. I... woo woo."

....”

When he cried, Hu Guan, who followed Li Jinglong in, was stunned.

"Is this Cao Guogong an actor? He cries when he cries? Damn it, he is made of water? How dare you, a big man, howl like that!" Hu Guan thought to himself, "He can do such a disgusting thing? Oh my!

Be a good boy!"

"Your Majesty, wuwu... I thought you didn't want me anymore. I can't live without you..."

"If you cry again, Duke Cao will have your title revoked!" Zhu Yunxi sneered.

Suddenly, Li Jinglong was speechless.

"When I have nothing to do, I came out for a walk and passed by your door!" Zhu Yunxi rocked the rocking chair, "If I don't come, you will enjoy the happiness at home. If I come, you will cry and cry. You can do it once or twice to show your loyalty. I have seen too much.

It’s annoying!” After saying that, he sighed.

Li Jinglong wiped away his tears and said, "Long live Lord, you have something to worry about?" He said in a low voice, "I wish I could share my worries with Lord Long live, you are really a useless person!"

"Damn, he can really climb along the pole!" Hu Guan thought to himself, "Knowing that the emperor was in a bad mood, we, the bodyguards, accompanied the emperor and didn't dare to breathe all the way. How about you, are you going to share your worries when you come up?

"

"More than worrying?" Zhu Yunxi sighed, "There are so many things that weigh me down that I can't lift my head! First there was the serious case of King Leilei of Zhou Dynasty, which was not investigated and investigated continuously. For the war in Yunnan, I was allocated two million in military expenses.

...The national treasury really can't get it all in just a short while..."

"My lord, I am willing to share the emperor's worries!" Li Jinglong suddenly said.

Zhu Yunxi looked at him sideways, "Why are you sharing your worries? Are you paying for it?"

"Everything is given to me by the Long Live Lord. Now that the country is in trouble, I will naturally stand up." Li Jinglong said righteously, "I am a high-ranking official and dignitary, and enjoy the fine clothes and food. At this time, I don't want to worry about the emperor."

The country will contribute, but when will it be more important?"

After saying that, he kowtowed and continued, "Three generations of my family have saved up, but they still can't get away with the extra three to five million silver. I will ask someone to open the bank and send the money to the household department!"

"My dear? He is so greedy?" Hu Guan cursed in his mind, "I don't even have 30,000 to 50,000 yuan at home, but he just gets 30,000 to 50,000 yuan?"

Zhu Yunxi sat up straight, stared at Li Jinglong, and sneered, "Oh? Three to five million? Are you, Mr. Cao Guo, still rich?" Then he continued to sneer, "How much is your salary? Your grandfather and father left you everything.

It's property. Where did you get the three to five million in cash? Are you greedy?"
