Great Emperor's Grandson of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 36: 036 people are taking advantage of the cold tea and encountering obstacles everywhere.

"Okay! When it gets bright tomorrow, I'll go find the Fourteenth Prince and the Crown Prince! Try to get back before noon!"

Hearing this, Ma He suddenly agreed.

And then, without any burden, he ate the food in the bowl, and waited for Zhu Congxin to sleep into the innermost bedroom.

The next morning.

When the first ray of the sun shone through the window, Ma He dressed neatly and left the courtyard deep inside the forbidden palace.

His first stop was the Prince's Mansion.

Because it is not only close, but also richer than the Fourteenth Prince's Mansion.

With the support of Ouchi's gold medal, he arrived at the East Palace without much effort.

However, when he reported Zhu Congxin's name to the guard at the East Palace, the response was only a long wait.

In fact, Zhu Yunwen did receive rewards from his attendants.

He also learned the fact that Ma He came to ask for help.

However, just when he was about to recruit him into the East Palace, Lu's figure suddenly appeared beside him.

"Mother, he was imprisoned because he was trying to save Grandma Li and the others. I have to help him."

After experiencing everything before, Zhu Yunwen seemed to have matured a lot overnight. With just one glance, he understood what Lu meant, and then he couldn't help but say with a pleading look on his face.

"Then what if your grandma really dies?"

"Do you know what position your grandma holds in your grandfather's heart?"

"Yunwen! He's finished!"

"From the moment he openly cursed the Queen and your father, he was finished!"

"Because no matter when your grandma Huang dies, whether this year, next year, or even ten years later, your grandpa Huang will settle the account on Zhu Congxin!"

"Getting too close to him will only put you in a more dangerous situation!"

However, in the face of his prayer, Lu showed a harsh expression.

The hall fell silent for a moment.

Zhu Yunwen couldn't help but think of something Zhu Congxin once said.

[Does it mean that if the cage is bigger, it will no longer be a cage? 】

He felt like he was trapped in a cage now.

Although it seems to be free, it is actually a puppet that moves according to the strings.

If he had a choice, he really hoped that time could go back to before April.

Because Zhu Xiongying was not dead at that time, and he had not been forced to take the position of the emperor's eldest grandson.

Outside the East Palace.

After waiting for half an hour, Ma He finally gritted his teeth, turned around decisively, and went to Xihua Gate further away.

[It seems that the young master’s prediction is good. There are few people in the palace who can be relied on. 】

As he walked, he couldn't help but sigh.

The fact is just as he thought.

When he reported Zhu Congxin's name to the steward of the Fourteenth Prince's Mansion again, the response was still just a perfunctory statement that the prince had already left.

This made him a little desperate.

Especially after he smelled the fragrance of rice.

You must know that at this moment, neither he nor Zhu Congxin has made any progress!

As long as these people had some conscience, they would never let him leave empty-handed.

[It seems that the little master is going to be hungry again today! 】

[If I had known this, I should have gone directly to Hongwu Street! 】

He couldn't help but blame himself secretly.And immediately, taking one step as three steps, he quickly rushed to Ximen's location.

This time, he finally failed.

After learning that he was Zhu Congxin's messenger, Jacob personally welcomed him out of the palace and presented him with a lot of desserts and fruits.

Looking at these delicacies, Ma He was naturally envious.

However, in order not to embarrass Zhu Congxin, he finally suppressed his appetite.

".I have two important things to do here."

"The first is to withdraw some money for the young master."

"Secondly, prepare some paper and seeds."

"If it's convenient for Jacob, please prepare quickly."

"In addition, if it is convenient, we would also like to bring some food to the young master that is not available in the palace."

He tried his best to make a look of not looking sideways, and said lightly.

After hearing this, Jacob naturally did not hesitate at all.

"It's all easy to say! Jacob is today thanks to the little emperor's grandson. A mere amount of money can't express Jacob's respect for his old man! I happen to have a snow mountain ginseng here. I heard it is a hundred years old. Please Take it back to the palace with your lord! Just say that this is Jacob's way of honoring his old man!"

He immediately patted his chest and said.

Afterwards, he quickly ordered people to fetch several boxes half as tall as a man.

The heaviest among them was undoubtedly the box containing the silver. Ma He roughly estimated that it weighed a thousand catties.

But with so many boxes, Ma and one person would definitely not be able to transport them back to the palace.

So next, Jacob recruited a few more strong men and escorted him all the way to the west gate of the imperial city.

As for the rest of the journey, it will be much more troublesome.

Because it took Ma He a full two-quarters of an hour just to deal with the guards at the city gate.

If he wanted to transport things to the cold palace, he would have to hire some idle eunuchs, and he would also have to avoid the eyes and ears of some caring people.

Of course, these are things to follow.

Watching Ma He go through all the trouble to enter the palace gate, Jacob, who was originally smiling, finally slowly put away his smile.

"Little grandson of the emperor. I, Jacob, have already repaid your favor."

"From now on, everyone should do their own thing."

Yes!

As the most popular figure in the capital today, Jacob finally learned the news that Zhu Congxin was under house arrest.

But he is a fastidious man.

The relationship can be severed, but he must return the favor.

As for Zhu Yuanzhang's anger?

He thought that as long as he, Jacob, could continue to bring a lot of wealth to Zhu Yuanzhang in the future, Zhu Yuanzhang would not be angry with him because of his character.

Of course, if given the chance, he would still report the matter to Zhu Yuanzhang.

As for whether Zhu Yuanzhang will recover the money, that is not something Jacob should consider.

Anyway, it can't be hidden.

Even if he didn't say anything, there would definitely be a lot of people in the palace rushing to add insult to injury.

"If you meet this person again in the future, just say that I went to Hangzhou. Then find a way to inform me."

After returning to the store, he did not forget to explain to the store clerk.

It wasn't until he was sure that everything was safe that he picked up the glass statue on the table with a smile and started to play with it carefully: "You still have to have power to do business! When you don't have power, you have to give profits to the government in everything you do. Now...haha! A huge profit!"
