Zhu Houzhao, the lonely Ming Dynasty, angrily snatched Yan Shenggong at the beginning!

Chapter 53 If you are immoral, you must be righteous! (Seek collection, investment, recommendation!)

Zhu Houzhao didn't care what Xie Qian thought. Anyway, after he got the money, it was not his concern to see how the two brothers of the Kong family would be torn apart.

"Master Xie, I'm going to Jinling in two days, don't forget to tell my father when you turn around."

Xie Qian stared.

Good guy, there is no conscience in this.

You little guy raised his hand to finish lighting the fire, and ran away on the back foot, isn't it a bit wicked.

This kind of behavior is like having a room with your girlfriend after a lot of difficulty, but the foreplay is done, and you are just waiting for the main course. What is the difference between the sudden arrival of your aunt?
Xie Qian took a deep breath, and cast a sideways glance at Zhu Houzhao, "Your Highness, have you ever heard a sentence?"

"What?"

Xie Qian snorted twice, "As a human being, you can lack money, you can lack life, you can lack luck, but you can't lack morality."

Zhu Houzhao rolled his eyes, put his hands behind his back, and walked forward leisurely, while answering casually.

"Your old man is right, so in the future I will take over my father's class, and my year name will be Zhengde, earn more virtue!"

Xie Qian: I have a saying that my mother sells criticism, I don't know if I should say it or not.

night.

When Zhu Houzhao ordered people to pack their luggage and prepare to run away, in Kong Hongxu's study, Kong Hongxu stood by the window with his hands behind his back, looking gloomy at the location of Kong Hongtai's courtyard.

Kong Hongtai came back unexpectedly, this was the result he didn't expect.

He originally thought that those villains who asked the Kong family for money should be greedy masters. He wanted to spend more money to get rid of Kong Hongtai and build a good relationship with the prince Xie Xueshi, so the title would return to him smoothly.

However, with Kong Hongtai's return, all his plans were in vain.

"Homeowner!"

After an unknown amount of time, an indifferent voice sounded behind him.

"How's it going?"

Kong Hongxu didn't turn his head, but asked coldly.

"According to the report from the person we arranged, the Second Young Master seems to know that you have sent a letter to the villain, and he has also told Xie Qian about it. I hope that Xie can convey this matter to the court."

"Ah-Wu's body is also gone. Judging from the traces around, it should have been dug away."

"asshole!"

Kong Hongxu roared angrily, turned around and threw the jade bead he was playing with hard on the ground.

With a "click", the two valuable jade beads shattered to the ground.

"Any more?"

Taking a few deep breaths, suppressing the flame of anger in his heart, Kong Hongxu fixed his eyes on the man in black kneeling in front of him.

"The matter of the mine has also been investigated. His Royal Highness bought a mine there. The second son, the nephew of a concubine, manages our mine. When he saw a mine dug out of a barren mountain, he became greedy. want to take it."

"However, at that time, His Royal Highness went to inspect the mine, and the two collided. His Highness immediately arrested our people, and His Royal Highness sent someone to occupy the mine."

Kong Hongxu took a deep breath, "Is the villain related to His Royal Highness?"

The man in black shook his head, "According to the report from the soldiers we bought from the Beijing camp, His Royal Highness just occupied the mine, and has no plans to take action against the family."

Kong Hongxu thought for a moment, then nodded.

Although there was a little conflict between the Kong family and the prince because of the mine, it was not a major enmity.

The Kong family and the royal family complement each other. It is said that the relationship between the two is a superior-subordinate relationship, but it is actually more like a cooperative relationship.

The crown prince is the only child of the royal family, and he will definitely become the emperor in the future, and he doesn't want to conflict with the crown prince because of this trivial matter.

And according to his contact with the prince during this period, he found that this little highness is also very smart. With the other party's intelligence, he would never fight with the Kong family just because of a few 10 taels of silver.

So it might have been an accident, and it was even possible that it was an accomplice of those private salt dealers.

"Any more?"

"After you and the Second Young Master returned home today, His Royal Highness and Xueshi Xie talked alone for a while. As for what they were talking about, we didn't hear it because we were too far away."

"However, we just received news that His Royal Highness is going to Jinling to pay homage to the Emperor Taizu. Obviously, he doesn't intend to take care of it."

"OK!"

Finally hearing the good news, Kong Hongxu heaved a sigh of relief.

Then he thought for a while, and said to the man in black: "Continue to keep an eye on Xueshi Xie and the second child, and report to me immediately if you have anything to do."

The man in black kowtowed, got up and disappeared into the darkness.

After the man in black left, Kong Hongxu looked at the bright moon outside the window, and said with a sneer, "Second brother, even if you have the evidence, what's the use of it? I'll let you know that your elder brother, I definitely don't just play around with women."

"Your Highness, Kong Hongxu begs to see you!"

While Zhu Houzhao was instructing Liu Jin to pack his luggage, the boy scouts guarding outside the small courtyard came in to report that Kong Hongxu wanted to see him.

Zhu Houzhao, who was holding a pot of fruit while feeding Kangxi and directing Liu Jin, frowned slightly.

What is this guy looking for?
Could it be that some wind has been received?Came here for help.

Zhu Houzhao thought about it for a while, and asked the guard, "Is he alone?"

The guard shook his head, "No, he also brought a little girl over."

Zhu Houzhao was even more puzzled now, is this an attempt to seduce?

Looking down at his body, Zhu Houzhao was even more speechless, is it too early to seduce?
After thinking for a long time, he didn't think what the other party wanted to do, so Zhu Houzhao simply gave up and asked the guard to let him in.

"Kong Hongxu pays homage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Kong Hongxu was very respectful as soon as he came in, and immediately bowed his hands to Zhu Houzhao to say hello.

"Mr. Kong!"

Zhu Houzhao returned the salute with a smile, glanced at the very pretty little girl kneeling on the ground behind the other party, and asked suspiciously, "I don't know why Mr. Kong is here late at night."

Seeing that Zhu Houzhao didn't let the girl behind him get up, Kong Hongxu didn't say much, and put a picture scroll in his arms on the table with a smile.

"I heard that His Royal Highness is leaving the Kong family to go to Jinling to pay homage to the Emperor Taizu. This old man came here to take a look. There have been too many things happening at home recently, and I didn't take good care of them. I hope His Royal Highness will forgive me."

As he spoke, he opened the painting in his hand, "I heard that His Royal Highness has been fond of writing and ink since he was a child. It just so happens that this old man got a painting of Wu Daozi's Hundred Immortals. Now His Royal Highness is leaving, and I don't know when we will see each other again, so don't even think about it. Giving the picture to His Highness is firstly considered as an apology for my Kong family’s negligence towards His Highness during this period, and secondly, His Highness should keep it in mind.”

"It's inappropriate!"

As soon as he heard that it was Wu Daozi's painting, Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up suddenly, and he reached out and took the painting.

Good guy, Wu Daozi's paintings are said to be worth less than tens of billions in later generations. In the current Ming Dynasty, it is estimated that there is no such thing as 10 taels of silver, so don't even think about getting this painting.

Kong Hongxu saw that the prince's words were inappropriate, but his hands were tightly grasped, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"It's just a piece of paper and ink. It's nothing. It will take up space with the old man. Your Highness will help me, an old man."

Zhu Houzhao glanced at the other party appreciatively, thinking: No wonder so many people like to embezzle money, it feels so good to make the other party beg for money.

"Then... well, I'll help you take it with reluctance, and you can take it back when you make room later."

Seeing that Zhu Houzhao had accepted the painting, Kong Hongxu was overjoyed. Just as he was about to express his needs, he saw Zhu Houzhao who had put away the painting across the way, and suddenly looked at him suspiciously.

"Why are you still here? It's getting late, go back early, I have to get up early tomorrow."

Kong Hongxu: "..."
