Chapter 145 Be honest with me

"You want to see the North Korean envoy?" Zhu Gaochi looked at Zhu Zhanchang with some doubts.

At this time, it has been a few days since Li Xiaozhu sent the secret letter from the North Korean envoy to Zhu Zhanchang. Unexpectedly, Li Xiaozhu received the secret letter from the North Korean envoy again. The letter said that Li Shang told them that Li Xiaozhu and Zhu Zhanchang had a relationship. Intimate, maybe Lee Hyo Joo knows something about the steam engine.

Only then did Zhu Zhanchang tell Zhu Gaochi that he wanted to see the North Korean envoy.

The honest and responsible Zhu Zhanchang naturally told Zhu Gaochi about the secret letter one by one, and handed the secret letter to Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Gaochi didn't seem to be angry, and said calmly, "This Li Xiaozhu is interesting. I told you everything, aren't you afraid of being punished?"

"Xu still sees the good qualities of his son's kindness and responsibility."

Zhu Gaochi laughed angrily.

"It's not the time to be joking. The North Korean envoy inquired about the steam engine. What do you think should be done?"

"There's nothing to deal with, but it's just inquiries, and there's nothing to inquire about, and North Korea has always been on good terms with our dynasty. Now that the war in the north is about to start, it's not appropriate to add another enemy. If the north is united, we will be uncomfortable."

Zhu Gaochi was quite astonished, and Zhu Zhanchang said: "What do you think?"

"I met Master Yao Guangxiao two days ago, and the master analyzed it with me." It is necessary for the man who is dedicated to the Daming royal family to carry the pot.

"It's really not good to have a bad relationship with North Korea now, but without warning, they will continue to inquire about news. If people really master the technology of steam engines, it will do us no harm."

Zhu Zhanchang was very optimistic: "Even if I took them to see it and touched it, they couldn't understand it, but I had to warn him. Father, give his son some money, and I'll go have a meal with them."

"Did you reward you with a lot of money after the Zhoushan naval battle?"

"The previous attempts to make Buddha Jump over the Wall were all precious materials, so this will be spent, and after all, entertaining North Korean envoys is a public business."

To do things for the court, of course, I have to consume public funds, and I have to pay for it myself, so I will not be taken advantage of.

I applied for a sum of money, ordered someone to call out the North Korean envoy, and this time I brought Li Xiaozhu.

Originally, at this time, Qin Huaihe must have a meal, but since he could only find a high-end restaurant with Li Xiaozhu, this matter cannot be placed in the palace.

"The two messengers, some simple meals, I hope they will suit my appetite." Zhu Zhanchang ordered a large table of delicious seafood to entertain the two messengers.

The North Korean envoys Zhang Zai and Park Zhenghuan looked at each other and were flattered: "The foreign ministers are frightened, how can He De He and His Royal Highness eat around the table."

"You and I have been friends for many years. Last year, I let the two princesses enter the palace. If there is no chance, I also want to meet your king."

"Your Majesty must be very willing to meet with His Highness." The two of them kept their postures very low with pleasing smiles.

As soon as Zhu Zhanchang started eating, he put a few drawings on the table: "By the way, the two of you seem to be very interested in our steamboat. These are the drawings of the steamboat. You can take a look if you like it." Just eat your own food.

Zhang Zai stood up in an instant, Park Zhenghuan pressed his arm, and his eyes signaled no.

You can't read this picture, if you look at it, you will die.

Park Zhenghuan turned his eyes sideways with a smile, didn't even look at the drawing, and rolled it up slowly with his hands: "His Royal Highness is really joking, the two of us just like novelties, Daming's steamboat is such a precious thing, how dare we look at it Woolen cloth."

Respectfully handed the rolled blueprint to Zhu Zhanchang, this kid is smarter than Zhang Zai.

"That's good, my father doesn't know who told me that the North Korean envoy coveted my Daming steamship in an attempt to spy on secrets."

"His Royal Highness Mingjian, Fifth Highness Mingjian, the two of us would not dare to die." Bean-sized beads of sweat appeared on Park Zhenghuan's forehead.

"Your Excellency Park Zhenghuan is right. I also told my father that it is impossible, absolutely impossible. Could the North Korean envoy be the kind of shameless thing? Someone must have slandered it. Don't worry, my father still believes in yours. , there is no blame from above."

"The Fifth Highness understands the righteousness, and the Fifth Highness understands the righteousness." Both of them began to sweat on their foreheads.

"Come, eat, eat." Zhu Zhanchang's chopsticks never stopped, and he was happy to eat alone. The two North Korean envoys held the chopsticks with embarrassment, not knowing how to start.

Seeing that the two were about to move chopsticks, Li Xiaozhu took out the secret letter later, and the first one had been burned by Zhu Zhanchang.

This scared the two of them to the point of urinating their pants. They couldn't believe what their princess was doing.

"What is this?" Zhu Zhanchang pretended not to know and continued to eat his own dishes.

"The Fifth Princess!?" Park Zhenghuan exclaimed.

Li Xiaozhu ignored them: "This is a correspondence between the two envoys and me."

The hearts of the two of them thumped like falling into an ice cave.

This is over, this is over, this secret letter is enough to confirm North Korea's intention to spy on Daming's secrets, and the two of them are dead.

Zhu Zhanchang took the secret letter while eating, and only glanced at the cover, intending to open it, but glanced at the two of them, the expression on his face was extremely complicated.

He threw the letter in front of the two of them: "This is a letter between you and your mother's family. What's there to see? Maybe it's an espionage secret letter. The two messengers should take it back themselves."

The two hurriedly took back the secret letter, but they were even more shocked. This performance showed that Zhu Zhanchang must have seen the secret letter.

If you haven't seen it, even if you don't want to watch it, you should return it to Li Xiaozhu, but now it's thrown to the two of them. What does this mean?

The words of the Fifth Highness made them unable to distinguish the truth from the truth.

I couldn't tell the truth from the real, and I couldn't see the intention, so I panicked even more.

"Eat, why don't you eat, isn't it to the appetite of the two of you?" Zhu Zhanchang asked, and the two hurriedly prepared chopsticks to eat.

Li Xiaozhu looked dignified and sat next to him, Zhu Zhanchang saw the two pick up chopsticks again and immediately said, "You two have to tell your king when you go back, the two princesses had a good life in Daming, and they are fathers. I always worry about my daughter's bad life outside, so I can feel at ease with a few words."

"The minister understands."

"By the way, Xiaozhu, which princess are you from?"

"Your Highness, I am fifth."

"What is Li Shang's number?"

"It's the third sister."

"You can't be a fake princess, are you?"



The two messengers didn't eat the food and almost spit out a mouthful of old blood. Zhu Zhanchang's question took a big turn and always appeared from angles they didn't expect.

"Go back to Your Highness, if you are a fake."

"What about Li Shang?"

The two envoys widened their eyes and panicked. Li Xiaozhu said slowly, "That's my third sister."

"Oh, that's good, I said that it's impossible to send a fake princess to come and kiss. That's not to take our Daming as a big head."

"Yes, yes, how is it possible, how dare we lie to His Majesty the Great Emperor, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness Fifth." Zhang Zai and Park Zhenghuan were too frightened to breathe.

"Hey, I didn't say my second brother, did you want to deceive my second brother, then Li Shang is fake."

Beads of sweat poured out from the frightened two of them: "I don't dare to deceive the Second Highness."

"What about my big brother?"

"Don't dare to deceive His Highness Taisun, His Highness the Third, His Highness the Fourth, His Highness the King of Han, His Royal Highness the King of Zhao..." The two hurriedly added and said everything they knew.

Zhu Zhanchang listened while eating, and when they stopped, he said, "Why don't you two eat? I'm full."

The two have picked up the chopsticks and put them down until now, and basically didn't eat a single bite, and now they don't dare to hold the chopsticks anymore.

"It doesn't seem to suit the appetite of the two of you. Okay, they are all withdrawn. The reception is not good, so don't take offense." Zhu Zhan's commander evacuated all the food and drinks from the table.

Seeing that a table of delicacies from the mountains and seas was taken away, the two of them had no time to pay attention to these food items. They looked nervous. Seeing that Zhu Zhanchang was about to leave, they panicked and hurried to send Zhu Zhanchang away, and sent the uncle away first.

Before getting on the carriage, Zhu Zhanchang reminded: "Two envoys, North Korea and I, Daming, have always had a good relationship. Our Daming's principle is that if we have something good to eat, we will give it to a friend, but if this friend is not interested, the table is good. It's a good meal, he doesn't even want to eat one bite, it's not just that he has no food to eat, and next time, even the table will be overturned."

Zhu Zhanchang's words were very straightforward, and there was a chill in them. Today, he came to warn the two of them, as well as North Korea.

The two respectfully sent Zhu Zhanchang away, looked at each other, swallowed, and didn't dare to give birth to another thought.

Zhang Zai said cautiously: "The five princes of the Ming Dynasty are all so powerful."

"Why do you say the fifth princess?"

"Shh, from today onwards, don't ask, read, or talk. If you annoy Daming, we really won't be able to go back."

leaving the carriage.

Zhu Zhanchang said to the sullen Li Xiaozhu, "They will definitely tell your father about what happened today, don't you regret it?"

"I was originally the daughter who was sent out, and I can't go back in my life. My father is angry with me. Will he still ask Daming to let me go back?"

"What if he really asked to let you go back?"

"There is always a chance to run on the road."

"Haha, I thought you were a stupid head, but I didn't expect you to be quite smart. Your father will surely give you more gifts when the two envoys return."

Lee Hyo Joo sighed, "Really? I've never received a present from my father."

"By the way, talk to Li Shang yourself. She told the North Korean envoy about the steam engine. This guy is not a good person."

"Your Highness, why do you keep her?"

Zhu Zhanchang was a little surprised by Li Xiaozhu's words, and turned to smile: "You two are really sisters."

Lee Hyo Joo lowered her head and said nothing.

"Warn her, she is still useful, and if you do anything to her, it will bring you. Since you have shown your loyalty to me, I said my people, and I will protect them."

"Understood, Your Highness." Li Xiaozhu's eyes had different colors.

Zhu Zhanchang smiled slightly, your sisters are deeply in love, why aren't our brothers deeply in love? It's not a day or two that the second brother has troubled me for a day or two. Since the crown princess has arranged for him this North Korean princess, you have to keep it for him.
