Chapter 8: Fooling the Prince

Lu Wenzhao was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Qin Rongshuai with some confusion, I don't know what he means?

"The crown prince has ascended the throne, and the eldest grandson of the emperor is naturally the crown prince." Qin Rongshuai smiled slightly.

"Be careful!" Lu Wenzhao's face immediately changed, and he snorted, he nervously poked his head out of the window and looked out of the window, and saw that the people in the courtyard were far away, and they were all Ding Baiying's henchmen, so he was relieved.

Lu Wenzhao's face was solemn, and he looked at Qin Rongshuai seriously, "Third brother, are you ...... Did you get any news? ”

"Nope." , Qin Rongshuai denied that he was a small brocade guard and had a fart news, he just knew the history in advance.

"Then how did you think of the emperor's eldest grandson." , Lu Wenzhao sat down slowly, crying and laughing, "How old is he, even if the emperor is driving...... Hmm, even if the crown prince ascends the throne, the eldest grandson will only be promoted to the crown prince, who knows......"

Lu Wenzhao didn't finish his words, but what he meant Qin Rongshuai understood, don't say that Wanli is still there, but he is not there, who knows if the next emperor will be the same as his father, being an emperor for decades, you must know that Wanli has been the emperor for forty-eight years, and he is already the longest reigning emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Who knows if it will be like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who reigned for 54 years.

If the crown prince can live like this, when the emperor's eldest grandson succeeds to the throne, Lu Wenzhao will definitely be absent, so Qin Rongshuai's idea is unreliable when he hears it.

Qin Rongshuai smiled slightly, didn't mention the matter anymore, and continued to discuss with Lu Wenzhao about installing his cronies in Jinyiwei, and the two discussed for a long time before he left.

Then Qin Rongshuai didn't go home, turned around and went to find Guo Zhen, and opened the way with a gift, Guo Zhen naturally agreed, promising to contact on his behalf, and promised to take the line of the emperor's eldest grandson for Qin Rongshuai.

Since Guo Zhen took Qin Rongshuai's gift to his godfather, he has fallen into the eyes of the godfather of the celebrant and supervisor, and since then he has been favored, and he is also a celebrity in the palace.

The crown prince was not treated well by the emperor and has always been left out in the cold, not to mention that the eldest grandson of the emperor is very easy for Guo Zhen to send things on his behalf.

Qin Rongshuai's request was not difficult, but it was just that Guo Zhen gave the emperor's eldest grandson a bag of things, which were all wooden toys with exquisite mechanisms.

Of course, this is to do what he likes, Apocalypse was originally a famous carpenter emperor, and he likes these things the most in his life, not to mention that Apocalypse is still a teenager at this time, and it is the time to be playful.

As soon as Qin Rongshuai turned around and went home, he didn't expect Guo Zhen to come to deliver a message in the afternoon, saying that the imperial grandson was very satisfied with the toys he sent and wanted to summon him.

This news caught Qin Rongshuai a little off guard, he didn't expect Guo Zhen to move so fast, and he didn't expect that the things he sent were so powerful, and he was going to summon him in just half a day.

Qin Rongshuai didn't have time to think about it, so he asked Guo Zhen to wait a little, hurriedly went to find Lu Wenzhao, and said directly: "The emperor and grandson want to summon me and wait." ”

Lu Wenzhao didn't expect Qin Rongshuai to tell him about the emperor and grandson in the morning, but he didn't expect the result to come after noon, he was suddenly a little surprised, and at the same time a little panicked, and didn't know how to deal with the summons for a while.

Why did Qin Rongshuai have to bring Lu Wenzhao to see the apocalypse, naturally for the sake of the system task.

One of them is to fulfill Lu Wenzhao's wish, Lu Wenzhao's wish at this time is only to be promoted to become rich, and it is relatively easy, if it is dragged to the back I don't know what it will become, in case this product has a whim, I wonder what to do when I am the emperor.

The second reason is that Qin Rongshuai knows that the court is a big quagmire, and he is constrained everywhere inside, and he can't move, and he must leave the capital and develop outside if he wants to do things, but he can't go outside to the court and no one to take care of him, so Qin Rongshuai wants to push Lu Wenzhao to the top and be the umbrella for his early development.

It is very difficult for ordinary people to see the emperor and grandson, but Guo Zhen holds the waist card, and the two of them are Jinyi Guards, so there is no obstacle to entering and leaving the palace.

Guo Zhen led the two to a garden pavilion, Qin Rongshuai looked up and found a man in his thirties sitting inside, wearing a crimson round-necked dragon robe, a jade belt wrapped around his waist, and a black gauze winged crown on his head.

It turned out to be the current crown prince Zhu Changluo.

Qin Rongshuai was very surprised, how could he be the prince?

Lu Wenzhao was directly stunned, although he didn't know the prince, he immediately guessed the identity of the person in front of him, stretched out his hand and dragged Qin Rongshuai, and quickly knelt down, "Meet His Royal Highness the Prince, Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose." ”

Qin Rongshuai called Chitose while scolding the street in his stomach, and before he could kneel, he saw the prince wave his hand, "Excuse me." ”

Qin Rongshuai stood behind Lu Wenzhao and squatted perfunctorily, then stood up and pulled Lu Wenzhao up easily.

Next to the crown prince stood a teenage boy, holding a wooden toy given by Qin Rongshuai, looking at the two curiously, it was the emperor's eldest grandson, Zhu Youxiao.

The prince squinted his eyes and didn't speak, twisted his beard, and looked Lu Wenzhao and Qin Rongshuai up and down.

And Qin Rongshuai was also looking at the shortest-lived emperor of the Ming Dynasty at this time, who died of a violent illness after only one month of reign, leaving behind a famous unsolved case.

But the short-lived emperor in front of him looked ruddy-faced, stood upright, and was not sick at all, nor did he look like a person who had a dark illness for a long time.

The prince's eyes widened. Suddenly he said, "Are you guilty?" ”

Qin Rongshuai and Lu Wenzhao paused for a moment, some looked at each other, Lu Wenzhao was covered with cold sweat, and felt inexplicable in his heart.

"You gave this thing, right?" , The prince picked up a wooden toy and threw it on the stone table next to him, "The strange and ingenious things are presented to the emperor's eldest grandson, because I want my child's playthings to lose his mind and indulge in entertainment, so you can be the minister of the fortunate people?" ”

"Wronged, Your Highness." Lu Wenzhao felt that he was sorry for his grievances if it didn't snow that day, and he didn't send the things, so he didn't know what was going on at all.

But it's June, and the snow is quite appropriate.

Qin Rongshuai stood up at this time, "Your Highness, the ministers are a painstaking worker. ”

"Huh?" , The prince looked at Qin Rongshuai, and said expressionlessly, "Then you tell Lone, what kind of hard work do you have." ”

"Your Highness listened to the minister and said slowly." Qin Rongshuai's brain spun quickly, "Guan Zi Xiaokuang said in the book that the four people of Shinong, industry and commerce, the pillar of the country, my Daming Jiangshan Sheji, and Wanli Shenzhou also rely on these four people. Scholars, assist the Holy Lord, and govern the people. Farming, sowing grains and feeding the people. work, making tools, making people convenient, trading, trafficking in goods, and communicating with each other. ”

"With these four people, they complement each other to make the country function normally, and all of them are indispensable."

The prince's eyes lit up and he nodded, "Go on." ”

"Skilled craftsmen not only build houses to keep people out of the cold, shelter from the wind and rain, but also make waterwheels, build water conservancy, irrigate farmland, make crops harvest, make weapons, and resist foreign captives. Qin Rongshuai racked his brains, "There are no craftsmen in the world, and the Li people have no fixed residence, no clothes, use buckets for water for irrigation, and use wooden sticks to resist the enemy, wouldn't the world be in chaos." ”

"Therefore, those who are good at using craftsmen can make the country run as usual, and they should not neglect one thing. Xunzi advises to learn well, a gentleman is not different, and he is good at faking things. What this means is that the biggest difference between a gentleman and others is that he is good at using external objects. ”

"Weichen sacrificed these things to let the emperor's eldest grandson understand this truth, and he should be good at faking things. Wei Chen thought that with the emperor's eldest grandson being extremely intelligent, clever and studious, so similar to the crown prince, he must be able to understand Wei Chen's painstaking efforts. ”

The prince nodded, smiled, clapped his hands and exclaimed: "What a good one, it's good!" Well said! ”

Qin Rongshuai breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that this level had passed.

The prince paced in front of the two of them, squinted his eyes, and suddenly asked, "If there is anything wrong with the two of you, you don't have to go around the bend, just say it." ”

Lu Wenzhao and Qin Rongshuai glanced at each other, and they didn't know how to answer. Lu Wenzhao was a little stunned throughout the whole process, he didn't have any preparation at all, and Qin Rongshuai was also caught off guard by this meeting, he originally wanted to have dates and no dates, but he didn't expect it to be defeated.

In desperation, the two replied: "Weichen has nothing to disturb His Highness. ”

The prince asked twice in a row, and when he saw that the two of them really had nothing to ask for him, he felt satisfied in his heart, so he waved his hand and said, "Your intentions are alone, so you two go back and wait for the letter." ”

The two of them have been taken out of the palace, and they feel a little inexplicable when they return home.

The next day, a decree suddenly came, Lu Wenzhao and Qin Rong were diligent and loyal to the king, and they were specially promoted to one level, Lu Wenzhao was a thousand households, and Qin Rongshuai was a deputy thousand households.

The two of them felt even more incredible, this official was a little incomprehensible, when Qin Rongshuai stuffed the decree with silver, but unexpectedly, the messenger secretly handed him a note, winked at the two of them, and then left.

Qin Rongshuai opened the note and saw that there were three words written on it.

Zheng Manfu.
