Zhu Gui and Xu Miaoqing returned to the living room of the palace together. After the two sat down, Zhu Gui said: "The matter of the Money Gang has been solved. I believe that Zuo Erniang can handle the remaining matters with her ability."
Xu Miaoqing said, "You trust her so much. She is an intruder from the imperial court. If the emperor finds out, he will definitely not spare you."
Zhu Gui smiled faintly and said: "As long as you don't tell me, who else will know about this? What's more, it is precisely because of her identity that she will not betray me."
Xu Miaoqing checked and nodded as if she understood, and then said: "Stop talking about this, what are we having for lunch today?"
Zhu Gui touched Xu Miaoqing's head lovingly and said, "What do you want to eat? I will make whatever you want to eat for you."
Xu Xu Miaoqing smiled even better: "I want to eat..."
…
In the afternoon of that day, the news of the change of ownership of the Money Gang had spread throughout Nanjing, and the city of Nanjing was abuzz. Countless people were speculating on who had the ability to overthrow the Money Gang.
Many gangs in Nanjing are ready to take action. They feel that the Money Gang is very weak at this time and it is a good opportunity to take advantage of it. They may even replace it and become the largest gang in Nanjing.
There are many such gangs, and several of them have even begun to take action.
Zuo Erniang immediately sent a message to Prince Dai's Mansion, but he did not rely entirely on the Prince's Mansion. Instead, he immediately summoned all the members of the Money Gang, and then explained the crisis that the Money Gang was facing at the moment.
As the largest gang in Nanjing, the members of the Money Gang also have tempers.
Although they had just been defeated by the acting king Zhu Gui, it was because the opponent had very sharp firearms.
Now faced with the provocative behavior of other gangs, their pent-up anger finally has a place to vent.
Ever since, on this day, a very tragic gang fight broke out in Nanjing.
According to the oral accounts of many bystanders, no less than a hundred people were injured or killed in this fight involving thousands of people.
According to government intelligence, several of the gangs involved in provoking the Money Gang have even had their lairs raided.
Zuo Erniang used this fight to tell all the gangs in Nanjing that although the Money Gang had changed its owner, her power could not be challenged.
When Zhu Gui received the news, the battle was already over. He could only smile bitterly and said nothing.
That afternoon, Zhu Gui accompanied Xu Miaoqing in the palace.
But in the evening, a very unexpected guest came to the palace.
"Uncle, why didn't you come to the palace to see me today?" Zhu Yunwen looked at Zhu Gui with a smile and said.
Zhu Gui was also very surprised when he saw Zhu Yunwen. He did not expect that he would leave the palace and come to see him.
"Welcome, why didn't you say it in advance?" Zhu Gui complained with a smile, but at the same time he pulled Zhu Yunwen into the backyard.
"Uncle Wang Huang, I just made it up on the spur of the moment. If the news really gets leaked, I won't be able to get out." Zhu Yunwen said with a smile.
Zhu Gui nodded and did not continue to struggle with this issue. Instead, he continued to ask: "How is the prince's condition?"
When Zhu Yunwen heard this question, he frowned: "It's still like that. The imperial doctor can't do anything. Sometimes I think, I really want to lie in bed for my father."
There was no pretense on Zhu Yunwen's face at all, and Zhu Gui believed this. After all, with Zhu Yuanzhang's temper and character, he would never misjudge anyone.
But what Zhu Yuanzhang didn't expect was that his grandson was so good that his uncle usurped the throne.
When Zhu Gui thought about this, he still felt a little sad.
"Then why did you leave the palace this time?" Zhu Gui asked curiously.
"I just came out to get some air. I wanted to leave the palace before but there was no place I wanted to go. Fortunately, the emperor is still in Nanjing, otherwise I would really have no one to go to." Zhu Yunwen said a little lonely.
If people see him like this, they will probably be very surprised. How is this what a grandson of an emperor should look like?
However, Zhu Gui knew that this was the fate of the descendants of the royal family. It could also be said to be the 'disease of wealth'.
"Okay, since you trust your uncle so much, he will take you out for a walk today." Zhu Gui patted Zhu Yunwen, who was only two years younger than him, on the shoulder and said.
Zhu Yunwen nodded excitedly.
So the two of them dressed up in disguise and walked out through the back door of Prince Dai's Mansion.
Of course, Zhu Gui's bodyguards were also accompanying him, but they were far away from each other and could not be easily discovered.
After all, Zhu Yunwen is only 12 years old this year and is still a child, so he is very excited about everything he sees along the way. On the contrary, it surprises the passers-by on the street. But when they see the two of them dressed in extraordinary clothes, they know that they are rich or noble people.
People dare to provoke others easily.
The two of them walked along Nanjing South Street for about half an hour, until it was getting late.
But this is another of the busiest times in Nanjing, which is the night market.
Rows of lanterns are hung high, illuminating the streets as if they were in daytime.
Many brothels have also opened their doors, and women with heavy makeup are standing at the door or on the second floor, greeting pedestrians on the street.
"My guest is here to play!"
"Uncle, come quickly!"
When Zhu Yunwen saw this scene, his expression turned rosy. He was so young and energetic, how had he ever seen such a scene before?
However, Zhu Gui beside him acted very calmly.
"Uncle Wang, where is this place? Why are the women here more beautiful than the maids in the palace?" Zhu Yunwen asked stupidly.
Zhu Gui smiled and explained: "Although the women here are beautiful, it does cost money to play games with them."
"Money?" Zhu Yunwen seemed to have no idea about money.
Seeing this, Zhu Gui took out a wad of banknotes and said, "This is money."
After speaking, he handed it to Zhu Yunwen.
Zhu Yunwen took it and only glanced at it before returning it to Zhu Gui immediately.
Zhu Gui was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he felt relieved.
Zhu Yunwen was born in the palace. He usually didn't need to spend money and had no place to spend money. He himself was the same before.
It's just that he used to be playful and often sneaked out of the palace, so he naturally knew the benefits of money.
And when he arrived in Datong Mansion, there were even more places where he needed money.
Fortunately, he now has a way to make money.
At this moment, an old bustard suddenly stopped the two of them.
"You two gentlemen, you are a bit unfamiliar. Today we have a special promotion at Yichun Hospital, and we have the four sisters Chun Hua Qiu Yue here. Why don't you come in and have some fun?"
The madam was a woman in her 50s, with heavy makeup on her face, but there were wrinkles that couldn't be concealed.
Seeing this, Zhu Gui suddenly thought of a business to make a fortune.
