Chapter 1091 The uneven life of different princes

If it is just routine cleaning, there is no need to open the door and have someone guard it.

There was probably a guess in his mind, but Di Xin still asked: "Since you are from Xiaoba's house, why do you appear in my house?"

Perhaps Di Xin's words were gentler, and Wang Wu gradually became less nervous.

After swallowing his saliva, he bowed and said: "To be honest with you, Your Highness heard that you were coming back soon, so he specially sent some servants and maids to clean up Prince Yu's residence, and then

I’m here waiting for your return.”

"Ba Ye also said that while you are back in the capital, I will stay at the house to take care of His Highness' daily life."

"Xiaoba is interested."

Di Xin nodded slightly, with a smile on his lips.

If it were someone else, you might have to wonder if they were taking the opportunity to spy on him, but if it were King Qi, there would be no problem at all.

A few years ago, when he was still in the capital, Zhao Xiangqi came to his house and publicly expressed his support for his fight for the throne.

At that time, he had just caused a big fuss in the Ministry of Revenue and had not expressed his thoughts in this regard.

In the few years since he took office in Northern Xinjiang, Zhao Xiangqi has been constantly passing on information from the capital to him through letters.

Therefore, in this regard, the Eighth Prince is trustworthy.

In addition to the friendship between the two of them, which have always been like brothers, he said that these servants and maids were sent to take care of his daily life, but they were really just here to take care of him.

And Di Xin did not refuse.

When he led an expedition from northern Xinjiang, he did not bring any servants with him. Therefore, when he returned to Beijing from southern Xinjiang, there were naturally no servants in the convoy.

What Di Xin originally thought was that after returning to the capital, it would be enough to recruit a few temporary servants and maids.

Neither he nor Xizi nor Song Qianwei are delicate people. It would be enough to just recruit a few people to deal with them for a while.

If the old emperor gets better, he will naturally return to southern Xinjiang.

And if the old emperor fails to survive, he will still have to leave the capital unless he is made the crown prince before his death.

But in this way, he will return to Northern Xinjiang and prepare to lead the Northern Xinjiang army to fight against King Cheng.

And if the old emperor Bintian succeeds him, he will need to move into the palace.

Therefore, no matter what, he will not stay in the house for long.

But now, Zhao Xiangqi's move saved him a lot of things.

Compared with a few people temporarily recruited from outside, it is obvious that the villains from Prince Qi's mansion are more trustworthy.

Just relying on a few words and a sign, naturally one cannot fully believe Wang Wu's words.

However, you only need to send someone to King Qi to verify this later. It is not a big deal, and there is no need to rush it.

Let Han Wu take the guards to the place where the guards of the mansion used to live, pack up their belongings, and then take over the guards of the mansion.

Two servants were called from the house to take the carriage to the stables.

Then, headed by Di Xin, a group of people walked into the gate.



Only after entering the palace can we truly see King Qi's intentions.

The reason why Emperor Xin took everyone in his family to Northern Xinjiang together was not only to avoid the danger temporarily, but also because apart from going out to guard, there were not many servants and maids in his family.

At least it is much smaller than the palaces of other princes.

It's not that the former King Yu was so diligent and frugal, but that the government's finances forced him to not recruit more servants and maids in addition to the necessary manpower.

Every time one more person is recruited, the family's already small savings will be put under more pressure.

They will be reduced to servants or maids. Apart from their family background, they themselves are just ordinary people.

An extraordinary person, even an ordinary early-stage acquired martial arts cultivator, would receive better treatment than these servants or maids.

If there are too many servants and maids in Prince Yu's house, then it will not be an easy task for so many ordinary people to take them all from the capital to Northern Xinjiang.

But this time, the number of servants and maids that Zhao Xiangqi sent to his residence exceeded the original number of servants in Prince Yu's residence.

Among other things, in Prince Yu's Mansion, the servants who cleaned the front yard and took care of the green plants were originally the same people's jobs, but now they are divided into different people's responsibilities.

Di Xin even had doubts as to whether his nominal eighth brother had sent an entire number of servants from another courtyard over.

Yes, this is the difference between princes.

At that time, King Yu was so embarrassed that everyone in his family could hardly afford to eat, but King Qi, whose natal family was a merchant, lived a more prosperous life.

It’s not just the 800,000 that was taken out at the beginning.

Inside and outside the capital, King Qi also bought some houses when he was bored.

It’s not all about supporting a foreigner.

King Qi's character means that even though he can sit and never stand, and he can lie down and never sit, he will still feel a little bored if he stays in one place for a long time.

At this time, he will change his house.

Then stay home.

In addition to the villas where he was completely tired of living, the configurations of other houses were always as luxurious as possible to ensure that he could move in and enjoy them at any time.

It was just a separate courtyard belonging to Prince Qi, and its level of luxury exceeded that of Prince Yu's Palace.

And because his mother was the daughter of a merchant, although he was a prince, he was destined to miss the throne, so no one raised any objections to his extravagant life.

Therefore, among all the princes, the life of King Qi has always been the most nourishing.

To be honest, if King Yu's mother was just a palace maid and had the same low status as his mother, which caused the two of them to be treated similarly to other brothers when they were young, otherwise, given King Yu's pedantic and cowardly character, the two of them might not be able to become

So close.

But that was all in the past.

After Zhao Xiangqi expressed his support for Di Xin, he had already restrained himself a little.

It's not that I'm afraid of damaging Di Xin's image.

Although the King of Qi lived a luxurious life, he never bullied and dominated the market. As for the people, as long as they didn't torment them, it didn't matter to them no matter how extravagant the nobleman's life was.

Except for the part used to maintain his own personality, most of the money was secretly kept by the King of Qi to help Emperor Xin fight for the throne.

And Di Xin actually knew some of this.

Just by relying on some policies, can Northern Xinjiang really be transformed from a barren land to support a hugely expensive expedition in just over two years?

That's not to say those policies are useless.

With Di Xin's vision far beyond this era, he guided the policies developed by those think tanks, which was enough to make Northern Xinjiang develop at a speed far faster than other places.

There is another reason that no one knows that allowed Northern Xinjiang to develop to this point in just two years.
