Chapter 44 Be careful, there is a trap
  Zhu Yunxuan told him all the things needed to make salt.

Lu immediately mobilized the power of the East Palace and asked people to prepare it. After about an hour, everything was placed in the yard, and Zhu Yunxuan was asked to start making salt.

Zhu Yunxuan started working according to the method he had learned, and soon they saw salt crystallizing in the iron pot.

"It really worked!"

When Lu saw this, she was extremely surprised.

The salt production is very fast and the quality of the salt is extremely high.

Zhu Yunwen felt that this was God's blessing on him, and it was also a rare opportunity. He quickly said: "Third brother, it was eldest brother's fault in the past. I'm sorry for you. You must not tell anyone what happened today."

They, mother and son, all had the same ideas.

They felt that this was their opportunity to be appreciated by Lao Zhu and the turning point to become emperor, so their attitude towards Zhu Yunzhen was completely different.

Unexpectedly, this naughty kid being close to Zhu Xuan and the others was not all bad.

"All right!"

Seeing that Zhu Yunwen apologized, Zhu Yunwen quickly agreed to them without worrying about skipping classes and leaving the palace.

"Quickly go and invite Mr. Qi and Mr. Huang." Zhu Yunwen said again.

After waiting for a long time, both Qi Tai and Huang Zicheng arrived.

Zhu Yunwen asked Zhu Yunwen to continue making salt for them to see, and briefly talked about today's events.

When they saw the salt appearing in the iron pot, the two of them suddenly widened their eyes and couldn't believe it.

"Amazing!"

Huang Zicheng said in shock.

Zhu Yunwen asked: "Excuse me, gentlemen, are these salts feasible?"

"feasible!"

Qitai hesitated for a moment and then said, "Let's go to the study and talk."

"this way please!"

Zhu Yunwen took them to the study.

Lu was in a good mood. She first appeased Zhu Yunxi, and then she had to rely on Zhu Yunxi to help Zhu Yunxi, win the game, and suppress Zhu Yunxi.

"I'm worried that there's something wrong with the salt."

Qi Tai sat down in the study, frowned and said, "The salt made by Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Yunxuan should have been their secret, but why did they bring the three emperors' grandsons to watch for no reason?"

Although they are sleeping dragons and phoenixes, it does not mean that they really have no brains.

What's more, Zhu Xuan's plan already had many loopholes. The most important loophole was that he took the initiative to take Zhu Yunxuan to see the salt-making technology.

When they first obtained the technology, Zhu Yunwen and Lu were overly excited and eager to win. They ignored many problems. As bystanders, Qi and Tai discovered the key at a glance.

Qi Tai's words were like a basin of cold water, extinguishing Zhu Yunwen's enthusiasm.

He really didn't expect that much. Now that he thought about it seriously, it was not difficult to find the problem. He frowned and asked, "Do the two gentlemen think that Zhu Yunxi and Zhu Yunxuan are planning to frame me?"

"It's possible!"

Huang Zicheng said solemnly: "They deliberately took away the third emperor's grandson, maybe they wanted to frame the emperor's eldest grandson, but the question comes again. They did it so obviously, what is the use of this frame-up? Or is there another conspiracy behind them? "

"Yup!"

After Zhu Yunwen calmed down, he wondered: "If they wanted to frame me, why did they teach Yunwen the method of making salt without reservation?"

None of them could think of an answer to this question.

Qitai said: "I suggest that we check first to see if His Majesty knows about this salt, so that we can make further preparations."

Zhu Yunwen said: "I will make arrangements."

They, the East Palace, were beside Lao Zhu and also bribed several eunuchs. He hurriedly asked people to investigate and get the results as soon as possible.

But yesterday, the eunuchs who were too low-level and did not know about the fact that Xu Xingzu brought Yan to see Zhu Yuanzhang yesterday. Among all the eunuchs, only Yunqi knew about it.

News of the investigation was quickly fed back to Zhu Yunwen.

The result obtained is unclear, which means that it may or may not exist. This left them in a tangle, not knowing what to do for a while, whether they should use the salt or not.

"Mr. Qi, have you thought of any countermeasures or methods?" Zhu Yunwen asked.

They shook their heads simultaneously.

Zhu Yunwen said worriedly: "If Zhu Yunxi gives the method of making salt to Grandpa Huang, and we have nothing, even if we lose a game, the chance will become slim, what should we do?"

If they didn't use the method of making salt but Zhu Yunxi used it, then it would be their failure.

"But we don't know what the purpose of Zhu Yunxi's actions is."

Qi Tai also wanted to use it, but he didn't dare to use it because he couldn't figure out the reason.

Huang Zicheng analyzed: "I think there are two possibilities."

"Mr. Huang, please speak!"

"The first possibility is that Zhu Yunxi really wants to frame us. The second possibility is that Zhu Yunxi does not want to use this method to please His Majesty."

"It's impossible for Zhu Yunxi not to please Grandpa Huang."

Zhu Yunwen first ruled out the second possibility.

The question still goes back to the first possibility.

Huang Zicheng continued: "Since we don't know what Zhu Yunxi is doing, we might as well wait and see what happens and wait to see their actions. At the same time, we continue to think of ways to break the situation and figure out our approach to salt affairs reform. Even if we can't do anything, we can still We must prevent Zhu Yunxi from succeeding."

Qi Tai agreed: "It makes sense."

Huang Zicheng added: "Please also ask the eldest grandson of the emperor to warn the three emperors and grandsons that today's affairs must be kept secret. We will wait quietly and wait for action. At the same time, we will send people to keep an eye on Zhu Yunxi to see what he will do next. As long as we are not impatient and do not fall into traps , any traps are useless and have no impact on us.”

"it is good!"

Zhu Yunwen could only do this. He stood up, bowed and said, "Thank you two gentlemen for reminding me."

If they hadn't poured cold water on him, Zhu Yunwen knew that he would have jumped into the trap.

"The emperor's grandson is welcome!"

The two of them got up and returned the gift.

While helping Zhu Yunwen, they were also helping themselves.

Let’s ignore the matter of salt for now and wait and see what happens.

Zhu Yunwen sent Qi and Tai out of the palace.

"Yunwen, how's it going?"

Lu asked anxiously, wanting to make a comeback through the salt affairs.

Zhu Yunwen reluctantly repeated the content of the chat just now.

"what?"

Lu's eyes widened.

In this case, wouldn't their hopes turn into disappointment?
  Lu said bitterly: "That wild boy and Zhu Yunxi, they dare!"

"Mother concubine!"

Zhu Yunwen shook his head and said, "Let's wait and don't mess around."

He firmly believed that Qi and Tai would definitely help him solve everything. Then he asked Zhu Yunzhen. This naughty kid had no idea what Zhu Xuan was thinking and couldn't ask anything.

-

the other side.

Zhu Xuan played outside all afternoon, and finally got tired of playing and asked Hou Xian to take him back to the palace.

He had a rough judgment about Zhu Yunwen's matter, but he did nothing, took his time, and allowed things to develop. Regardless of success or failure, there was no harm to them.

The most that can be done is to postpone the salt matter for a while and then let Zhu Yunxi hand it over to Zhu Yuanzhang.
