Chapter 154 Grandpa Emperor, Where Did You Hire Workers?

After Lao Zhu felt Dasun's filial piety, when he looked at the small courtyard, he felt shabby and shabby everywhere, and felt that Dasun was wronged here.

Just as he was thinking about asking people from the Ministry of Industry to come over and help with the repairs, he heard a melodious "dang dang" sound.

Zhu Yunxi, who was lying on the bed and returning to sleep, heard the sound of "dangdang", got up from the bed, and then ran out of the small red building happily with his rice bowl and chopsticks.

This is the sound of dinner in the dining hall, and it is also the sound that the teachers and students in the school like to hear most.

However, as soon as Zhu Yunxi ran out the door, he saw an old man with a whip in his waist standing in the yard.

The moment Zhu Yunxi saw the whip, the smile on his face disappeared instantly, and then he felt his scalp go numb.

"Huang... Grandpa Huang?"

Hearing this call, Lao Zhu hurriedly turned his head and squeezed out a smile that he thought was very kind.

"Xiao Nisun woke up?"

Zhu Yunxi was so frightened that he knelt down on the spot when he saw Lao Zhu's smirk.

"You... when did you come here?"

"We've been here for a while, and we've even walked around your primary school, hehehe..."

Zhu Yunxi's face turned pale when he heard this.

"So you already know?"

Old Zhu smiled slightly.

"Of course!"

"Little Nisun, you have made it hard for us to hide it!"

"If we hadn't seen it with our own eyes, we wouldn't believe that you could do such a thing if you were killed!"

When Zhu Yunxi heard what Lao Zhu said, he just felt like the world was falling apart for a while, thinking that the research institute that he developed a new type of gunpowder and the formula of gunpowder had been discovered by Lao Zhu.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yunxi immediately drooped his head, crawled to the stone bench in the yard and lay down on his stomach, as if accepting punishment.

"Since you know all about it, my grandson won't quibble anymore, you can punish him casually!"

"But grandson just ordered someone to study it, and he has no other thoughts. You must believe me..."

When Lao Zhu saw Dasun like this, he felt a pain in his heart.

Did I treat Dasun too harshly, why did I scare Dasun like this?
Lao Zhu walked to the edge of the stone bench with a depressed face, stretched out his big palm-like hand, and slapped Da Sun's butt with a "slap".

"Get up for us!"

"When did we say we were going to punish you?"

Just as Zhu Yunxi was about to shout "pain", when he heard Lao Zhu say that, he hurriedly turned around in surprise.

"Grandfather, didn't you come to beat me?"

"of course not!"

"Then why don't you have a whip in your waist?"

"we……"

Lao Zhu looked at the whip in his waist and lied casually.

"We drove the carriage by ourselves!"

"what?"

Zhu Yunxi laughed on the spot when he heard this, and the majestic scene of the old Zhu head driving the carriage instantly appeared in his mind.

Hundreds of guards in brocade guards guarded and cleared the way for him, while Old Zhu drove the carriage away with a whip in one hand.

"Grandpa Huang, when will you drive the car and call me, I want to see your driving prowess, hahaha!"

When Lao Zhu heard Ni Sun teasing him like this, he blushed rarely.

This lie is really not level, even if you just said that riding a horse is better than this reason.

"If you don't get us up again, we will really beat you up!"

When Zhu Yunxi heard this, he quickly got up from the stone bench with a "shua", and then pulled Lao Zhu to ask questions with a playful smile.

"Grandfather, you really don't want to pursue your grandson's fault?"

"What's wrong with you, don't you just want to surprise us?"

"Yes!"

"Grandson just wants to surprise Grandpa Huang!"

"It's just that thing... grandson... can grandson really make it?"

Old Zhu chuckled when he heard the words, and then patted Dasun's head lovingly.

"Isn't it just a timekeeping thing, and it's not forging weapons privately, why are you so nervous?"

"what?"

"Grandpa Huang was talking about the clock, I thought you saw it all the time..."

As soon as Lao Zhu heard this, he immediately realized that something was wrong. Is there something else this grandson is hiding from us?
"See what?"

"Xiao Nisun, are you doing something bad behind our backs again!"

Zhu Yunxi hurriedly shook his head upon hearing this.

"what!"

"no!"

"Grandson just wanted to make a birthday present for Grandpa Huang, but he didn't expect to be discovered by Grandpa Huang ahead of time!"

The more Zhu Yunxi explained in this way, the more old Zhu murmured in his heart, always feeling that this rebellious grandson had something to hide from him.

"Grandpa Huang, you haven't had lunch yet, do you want to try our school's food?"

It was true that Lao Zhu ran out without eating. Hearing what Da Sun said, he immediately put his worries aside.

After all, this grandson is right under his nose, even if he can make a fuss, how much noise can he make?

"Okay!"

"Then shall we go with you to have a taste?"

Seeing that Lao Zhu agreed, Zhu Yunxi immediately led Lao Zhu to a simple house in a roundabout way.

The reason for turning around is of course to avoid those sensitive places.

For example, a new gunpowder-driven plow tool design institute, and a portable tube-type gunpowder launching device, etc.

When Lao Zhu saw the word "canteen", he immediately stepped into it.As soon as he entered the cafeteria, Lao Zhu felt that his eyes were not enough.

The canteen looks small from the outside, but it is very spacious inside.Rows of neat tables and chairs were placed side by side, and hundreds of people with rice bowls lined up in an orderly manner in the cafeteria.

Lao Zhu had no spirit of queuing, and walked directly to the front of the line, attracting the attention of those who were queuing.If it wasn't for seeing Zhu Yunxi standing next to the old man, they would have scolded him long ago.

Lao Zhu glanced into the stall, and saw pots of fried vegetables inside.Whenever someone points to the dish bowl, the person inside will take a spoonful from the inside and put it into that person's rice bowl.

Old Zhu thought that this method is good, each person eats as much as he eats, not only can prevent waste to the greatest extent, but also saves people who test drugs.

"You usually eat this?"

"Yes!"

Zhu Yunxi walked forward with the rice bowl in his hand, and apologized to the people who were queuing up.

"I'm sorry everyone, there are elders in the family, so I have to join the team today!"

The crowd who were queuing immediately backed up a few steps when they heard this, giving Zhu Yunxi a full ten feet of space.

"His Royal Highness is too polite!"

Lao Zhu felt a little displeased when he saw Dasun being so courteous.

How can this grandson be a majestic grandson, and he still needs to say hello to others when he joins the team?

Zhu Yunxi made a bowl of food for himself and Lao Zhu, and then threw a bowl to Qin Deshun, signaling him to make whatever he wanted.

Holding two bowls of food, Zhu Yunxi led Lao Zhu to a secluded corner and sat down.

"Grandpa Huang, the food here for my grandson is poor, so I'll make you grow old."

Lao Zhu didn't care about this, he took the rice bowl and buried himself in cooking.After eating it, I was surprised to find that the taste of the food was not bad, especially the red meat, which was extraordinarily sweet and soft.

"Da Sun, your food here is pretty good, this meat..."

"Braised pork!"

"This braised pork is not bad. We can eat an extra bowl of rice with just this dish!"

Seeing that Lao Zhu liked it, Zhu Yunxi also felt that his face was bright.

"As long as Grandpa Huang likes it, when you return to the palace, you can also ask Grandpa Xu to do it for you!"

Old Zhu curled his lips in disdain and said.

"Xu Xingzu... Heh heh, he's so stupid that he can't learn..."

As soon as Lao Zhu finished speaking, he saw Xu Xingzu looking at him with resentment.

"My lord, what you said is too much, this braised pork is from the hand of this old slave!"

Lao Zhu was also taken aback when he saw Xu Xingzu suddenly, pointing at him and hesitated.

"you……"

"The Third Emperor's grandson is short of manpower. The old slave thought that there was nothing wrong with him, so he came to help."

"Anyway, there is an old slave's son watching over the imperial dining room, so it is absolutely impossible to miss His Majesty's business."

Seeing what Xu Xingzu said, Lao Zhu looked at his grandson resentfully, and thought that this corner of the wall was dug a bit hard, and it was all on our heads!
Zhu Yunxi also felt embarrassed for a while, he didn't expect Xu Xingzu to be exposed so soon.

"Grandpa Xu didn't eat either, why don't we sit down and eat something together?"

Old Zhu said when he heard this.

"Don't just stand there stupidly, go get some food by yourself, and eat with me and my grandson!"

Xu Xingzu is a cook, he has already finished eating in the back kitchen, it can be seen that His Majesty and the emperor's grandson are so embarrassing, even if they die, they have to continue, right?

"okay!"

"The old slave is going to hunt for vegetables!"

After several people had lunch, Zhu Yunxi personally sent Lao Zhu into the carriage, and Qin Deshun lost no time in reminding him.

"Your Majesty, today seems to be fifteen?"

It was only then that Lao Zhu remembered the three chapters of agreement between himself and his eldest grandson. On the first and fifteenth day of each month, the eldest grandson had to stay in the palace.

"Da Sun, why don't you go back to the palace with us?"

Zhu Yunxi hesitated for a moment, shook his head and rejected the proposal.

"No!"

"Grandpa Huang, can you give me a will? I want to go out of the city to see."

"What are you going out of town for?"

"I think... I want to go and see how the palace is being renovated..."

When Lao Zhu heard this, he no longer had any doubts, and warmly greeted Zhu Yunxi to get into the car.

"boarding!"

"Let's go take a look with you!"

"Ah... hey!"

With Lao Zhu's face, the officers and soldiers guarding the gate naturally didn't dare to stop him, and knelt on the ground to greet the holy driver from a long distance away.

Wuwang Palace is just beside the city gate, and it is not far from the Taiping Gate.

Zhu Yunxi originally thought that after such a long time, the palace should be in full swing, not to mention a new look.

However, when he stood at the gate of King Wu's Palace again, he was suddenly annoyed by the desertedness of King Wu's Palace.

In the huge Wu Palace, only three or two workers are slowly dismantling the doors and windows.That unhurried look made Zhu Yunxi want to hit someone when he saw it!

"Grandpa Huang, where did you hire workers? You didn't mean to show it to me!"

Old Zhu couldn't help but blush when he saw the progress of King Wu Palace was so slow, and he secretly scolded the people in the Ministry of Industry for being ignorant.
"Dasun, there is a war going on in the north right now, and the money in the court is tight, so this progress..."

Zhu Yunxi was unhappy on the spot when he heard this.

"Grandpa Huang, your joke is not funny at all..."

"How much money can it cost to renovate, I don't believe that the imperial court will only send me this little money!"
