The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 629
[Who is Chapter 629?]
When he said this, he seemed to have thought of something, and there was a fierce look in his eyes.
When the old man saw this, he naturally understood that what he was thinking was nothing more than the poisonous poison thing at the beginning.
He opened his mouth, wanting to persuade again.
Prince Kang waved his hand and said casually: “There is no need to persuade Mr. Gong, I know this matter well.
Even though I don’t want to recruit him now, I must do this superficial effort.
After all, my father Everyone knows how much the emperor values Fang Xiu. As long as my father is still in power, I will get along well with Fang Xiu!” When
the old man heard this, he naturally understood what he meant.
While His Majesty is still here, he will get along well with the new Amber.
So, what if His Majesty is not here?
I’m afraid I’m going to meet you with a dagger.
It is a pity for such a talented person to serve as a royal assistant. What a pity.
He shook his head, with a regretful expression on his face, but did not say anything else. He seemed to have decided that His Highness Prince Kang would never leave Xin Anbo behind.
King Kang looked outside the courtyard and shouted: “Come here!”
“Your Highness!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a servant came in a hurry, knelt on the ground and said respectfully: “Your Highness, what do you want me to do?”
King Kang looked at Looking at him, a look of thinking appeared on his face. After just a moment, he ordered: “Send another invitation to the people invited by the king.
Just say that in three days, the king will have something important to attend and will not be able to attend the banquet. Postponed for two days.”
When the servant heard this, he was slightly startled.
Your Highness always prepares for things in advance. Why,
even though he was confused this time, he still said respectfully: “I understand, let’s do it now!”
“Wait a minute!”
The servant just stood up, but was stopped by King Kang: “One more thing is to go to the Linze Marquis Mansion and send an invitation to Xin An Bo, saying that this banquet is for me. Organized for Xin Anbo.
I haven’t seen Xin Anbo for a long time, and I even miss him. Please be sure to attend
if Xin Anbo has important matters after five days and cannot attend, I will continue to postpone it until Xin Anbo pays tribute.”
When the servant heard this, he was completely shocked.
His Highness is the future monarch and the future emperor. There is no reason to postpone the banquet just because a minister repeatedly refuses.
Xin Amber is highly regarded by His Majesty, and he knows this.
But, when did His Highness think so highly of Amber?
I remember that in the past, he often heard His Highness yelling curses alone in the study room, and the person he was cursing was Xin Amber!
“Yes, I understand!”
Even so, the servant still responded, turned around and left the palace.
Seeing this scene, the old man smoothed his beard and said: “Your Highness’s move is exactly what I want.
New Amber, you must win over him. Even if New Amber disdains His Highness, Your Highness will still pretend to be a polite and virtuous corporal.
The more this happens, the more likely the DPRK will be, The officials and the people in the market praised His Highness’s character, and the more they thought His Highness was virtuous!
This is called retreating in order to advance.”
When King Kang heard this, he sighed and said, “As a prince, you must do your duty. “You’re really a coward!”
“No, no,”
the old man shook his head and said, “Prince Ning’s example is right in front of us. I hope your highness will persist for a while, and you must not slack off!
” “The king knows.”
King Kang waved his sleeves, picked up the tea cup, and drank it all in one gulp.
Then, looking at the old man, he asked: “I heard that many refugees and beggars in this capital received relief some time ago?
Or food, clothing, bedding, copper plates, or children?” Is there something wrong with
your toys
?”
When the old man heard this question, he frowned slightly and said, “I am also surprised. No matter who does this, it will definitely be publicized, but now it is not happening at all. There was no movement.
Except for the refugees and beggars, and some interested people, no one in the capital had heard of it.
Now, no matter in the streets or in the court, there were many people talking about it.
Some people speculated that the matter was handled by the Kyoto Prefecture, but the Prefect denied it, and then the Ministry of Revenue denied it again.
There were people from the Ministry of Works, the Ministry of Rites, and even the Ministry of War who went to inquire, but found nothing.
Even the two dukes were asked, and it was the first time Duke Ding and Duke Ying heard about it. I
guessed that some wealthy businessman wanted to provide relief on a whim.”
“No!”
the old man said. Before he finished speaking, King Kang interrupted him and said: “I know that those merchants are a group of people who can’t afford to work early. It’s even harder for them to provide relief than going to heaven!
If they will take the initiative to help the victims, unless The sun, moon and stars fell together”
“That’s someone above the court.”
“It’s impossible.”
King Kang frowned slightly and said, “First, no one can have so much money.
After all, there are so many victims and beggars in the entire capital .
, how much money will be needed for relief at the same time?
My rough estimate is that it will be at least more than 10,000 taels!
Even if they have so much money, do they dare to show it openly?
If the news is leaked, they will be punished by the emperor. , the most serious person is full of people.”
The next words were not spoken. He paused and continued: “This second point is also very simple. There are not so many people. If nothing else, all the people in the Ministry of Household Affairs do nothing. , it may not be possible to rescue so many refugees overnight without letting them see it.”
The old man frowned slightly when he heard King Kang’s analysis.
After a moment, he seemed to have thought of something. He looked at King Kang and said with a smile: “Your Highness, I should know who did this.”
“Oh?”
When King Kang heard this, an expression of interest appeared on his face. , asked: “Who does Mr. Gong think is responsible for this?”
The old man picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and said slowly: “Xin Anbo – Fang Xiu!”
“Fang Xiu!?”
King Kang heard the answer, His brows furrowed even more tightly, and he waved his hand and said, “I don’t know Fang Xiu yet? For
someone like him, it would have been good if he didn’t take advantage of this opportunity to snatch money from the refugees.
How could he still do it ?”
Help them!”
The old man shook his head and waved his hands: “Your Highness’s words are wrong.
For merchants, they are naturally afraid to avoid Xin Anbo.
However,
it has been the same in the past.
Half a year ago, after Xin Anbo suffered from brain disease, the people of the capital became more and more fond of Xin Anbo.
In addition, Xin Anbo had been to Zhongyuan Road and served porridge in the south of the city
. There are many servants, and Xin’an Bo has plenty of money. It is not impossible to help the people during the Chinese New Year.
However, has His Highness ever thought about why he wants to help the people at this time? “
