aid. He has always been cautious, for fear of being squeezed out by his so-called brothers, or accidentally stabbed in the back by someone else. In the eyes of others, the position of the prince is a sweet potato, but only he knows that this position is actually a hot potato.
The heights are very cold, Ming Yu is his mother's compatriot, and he has been stupid since childhood, but he is quite close to him. Sometimes he thought about how nice it would be if this fellow brother was a normal person, at least in this hypocritical palace, the Fourteenth Brother could help him and prevent him from fighting alone. And sometimes he was glad that his younger brother was a fool, which would make people feel at ease.
It is precisely because of this that he also treats this younger brother with some sincerity. He once thought that after a hundred years from his father, he will inherit that position logically, and then let the fourteenth younger brother sit back and relax as his idle prince.
How do you know that the fourteenth brother has been begging the father to go to Liangcheng, and now there is such a scene, what should people do? If you are criticized by someone who has a heart, you will not be able to please yourself.
Ming Ye was feeling embarrassed, thinking about whether to send a letter to persuade the Fourteenth Brother to give up this idea, and heard Xu Xi say: "But the Fourteenth Highness's idea is really good."
Ming Ye looked at Xu Xi for no apparent reason, and Xu Xi tapped the letter with his finger and said, "The Fourteenth Highness's plan above is well written, and even in terms of future profit sharing, I have to say that this benefit is very good. Attractive."
Ming Ye smiled wryly, how attractive it is, it is not empty talk. His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, looks very beautiful on the surface, but he raises literati, attracts and makes friends with the ministers in the court, which one does not need to spend a lot of money? Although he also has a farmhouse under his name, he has felt that he cannot make ends meet over the years.
"His Royal Highness, I think this is indeed a way to make money, and you don't have to take much risk." Xu Xi handed the letter back to Ming Ye and said.
Ming Ye's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "How do you say this?"
Xu Xi pondered for a while, and then said: "His Fourteenth Highness asked you to provide some goods such as porcelain, silk, and tea, and he is responsible for everything else. Prince, your shop is not without these, so give the tenth a backlog of old goods. The fourth master will deal with it, and at that time, if you earn several times or even dozens of times, you will be able to share half of the profits, so why not do it?" In the letter, Ming Yu has already said that the future benefits will be divided into 50% and 50%, so it seems that it is not There is no risk. "As far as 10,000 steps back, if there is any loss of these goods, they are just old goods that are not worth a few silver coins. But in this way, you have helped the Fourteenth Highness, and the Fourteenth Highness will only be more grateful. Be kinder to you."
That's true, Ming Ye nodded, and Xu Xi continued: "His Fourteenth Highness can still think of the Prince when he is outside, which shows that your place in his heart is very important. The Prince has not always wanted a help, and now His Highness the Fourteenth is very important. Why isn't it the help of the Crown Prince when he is enfeoffing a party outside?"
Ming Ye frowned, "If the fourteenth younger brother were to be entrusted to the vicinity of Gyeonggi or the rich land in the south, he would be a help, but he actually went to Liangzhou. What can Liangzhou have? A barren land, alas!" It's not that he didn't persuade him at first, but he refused to listen to people's words and insisted on going there.
"Haha, I can't say that. Prince, didn't His Fourteenth Highness think of a way to make money now?" Xu Xi was still very optimistic about the plan mentioned in Ming Yu's letter. "Furthermore, in the eyes of this minister, His Highness the Fourteenth is very different from before, and his stupidity is actually not as rumoured as the outside world."
Ming Ye nodded in agreement. The fourteenth brother's idiocy was obvious at a young age. Later, under the careful treatment of the imperial physician, he improved a lot, but now his thoughts are out of tune with everyone else, so he behaves differently.
"It's just that this has never happened before, and it goes against the rules of the ancestors." Ming Ye was still worried.
"This minister thinks otherwise, why don't the Crown Prince show the letter to His Majesty. You don't have to take any risks or worry about the criticism of those who have the heart after this matter has passed through His Majesty's hands. Moreover, the Crown Prince is worried that his younger brother will also be able to leave a brother in front of His Majesty. Youdi Gong's good impression. If Your Majesty agrees, you don't have to be restrained."
Ming Ye's eyes lit up, and he happily patted Xu Xi on the shoulder, "Okay, Qing is thoughtful, it is indeed a good idea, just do as Qing said."
17. Chapter 17
The emperor also felt a headache when he saw Ming Yu's letter. The old 14th **** complained about poverty at the beginning of the letter. Fortunately, he also filled a lot from his private bank. How long has it been? Just wrote another letter saying that it is about to drink the northwest wind, which is simply out of line!
In the letter, the old fourteen sincerely said that he didn't want to burden his father and emperor, and even said that he wanted to earn money to support himself. If it was placed on an ordinary old father, a foolish son could think of not dragging down his family and still want to earn money. I'm afraid I'll wake up laughing when I fall asleep.
However, now the old fourteenth is so nonsense obviously just want to **** off his father. Looking at the way he thought of making money, he actually went to other small countries in the Western Regions to do business. Where is this what the dignified prince of the Yan Kingdom should do?
The emperor blew his beard and stared at him angrily. After a while, he calmed down but began to worry again. The old fourteenth is in a desolate and war-torn land, which is better than the south. Why! His son is a little stupid, but he is sincere. He has just arrived in a new place, and everything needs to start from scratch. It is normal for the expenses to be large. If you don't go up, isn't that hitting your old face?
The emperor secretly wondered, should he help this son with some gold and silver rewards in the past? However, everyone in the palace is staring at him as an emperor. If he deliberately sends gold and silver rewards for no reason, no one will be convinced, right? He is not the only son, if other people in the harem make trouble, he will have no peace.
When I was thinking about it, the prince Ming Ye came over. What did the prince come to do at this time? The emperor was surprised, and immediately let people in, just in time to help come up with ideas.
After Ming Ye saluted, he explained his intentions, "Your Majesty, the fourteenth brother wrote a letter to Erchen, saying that he has something to ask Erchen. After reading the letter, Erchen was unsure. I also ask the royal father to decide."
After he finished speaking, he offered Ming Yu's letter with both hands, and the chief **** presented the letter.
Hearing what Ming Ye said, the emperor was also curious about what Old Fourteen wrote in the letter to the prince. I took it over and read it again, I couldn't help being angry and laughing. This old fourteen, how to complain in the letter to himself, but in the letter to the prince, he said how to do business with the prince, how to make money, how to share profits, I haven't done it yet, as if the money is already in my pocket.
The emperor's face is full of vicissitudes. His father and emperor can't compare to his prince and brother. This difference is not too different, right? Unable to help Chacha injustice, "Old Fourteen, this bastard, is simply nonsense!"
Ming Ye secretly glanced at the emperor's expression, not really angry, and persuaded: "Father, the fourteenth younger brother is away from the capital for the first time, and it is normal for him to be stretched for a while in such a remote place. The idea is to not bother the father and emperor to worry about it."
The emperor was already complaining, but after hearing this, the original annoyance turned into distress, alas! I can't help my son. At first, I was determined not to listen to advice and went to a hard place. Now that I'm better, I regret it? Just regret is useless! Emperor Chrysostom said, no matter how capricious it is, it is impossible to change it.
"Father, the queen mother went early. The fourteenth brother has been tired and stupid since he was a child. He hasn't even seen the mother and queen a few times. If the mother is still there..." Ming Ye's voice was a little choked. Years later, I am more fortunate than my fourteenth brother with the care of my mother and mother..." Ming Ye really felt that he was heartbroken when he thought of the mother who had left early. If the mother was still there, why would their brothers be in the current situation.
"Now the fourteenth younger brother is in difficulty. As the eldest brother, Erchen should help. Erchen also has a little income from the Grange Shop. It is better to convert some money and send it there." Ming Ye said cautiously.
The emperor also thought of the Yuan Dynasty, and felt very sad, he waved his hand, "You prince is too careful, unlike the old fourteen who dares to rush. It's okay, it's okay, how long will you be able to fill up your Zhuangzi shop? "
Ming Ye's face turned red. He was used to being cautious and cautious, and he couldn't learn the carefree and fearless temperament of the fourteenth younger brother. Perhaps it was such a unique fourteenth younger brother that the royal father would really like it, right? After all, in the palace, everyone would wear a mask to live their lives, but the fourteenth brother who was different was always real and enviable.
"Your brothers have always had a deep relationship, and it's good to help. It's not impossible for the old fourteen to make money. He will find a way to do it no matter what. Instead of blocking it, it's better to follow his wishes." The emperor Knowing Ming Yu's temperament, don't give up until he achieves his goal, otherwise he will not be allowed to go to the bitter cold land of Liangzhou. In his words, he has agreed to let the prince help the old fourteen, which is to agree with Ming Yu's plan.
The emperor's meaning was clearly understood by Ming Ye, "I will follow the father's teaching, and I have the goods that the fourteenth brother needs, so he will arrange for someone to send it to the fourteenth brother. It's just that the fourteenth brother said that the profit is shared. The sons do not take a penny, and leave it all to the father and the emperor, so that all the sons and ministers will be filial." He said all the words he had thought about on the road.
This remark finally made the emperor feel happy, and smiled: "How can I covet your things, it's good that you have this heart, so let's take some unused silk from the private treasury.
