Ming Dynasty: Zhu Biao's younger brother, the most rebellious son in history

Chapter 45 The second generation version of the Ming Dynasty honey trap!
Chen Ning was a mean person who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals. When he was the magistrate of Suzhou, the people called him "Chen Laotie", which shows how cruel and ruthless he was.

After Yang Xian died, Chen Ning succeeded him as the Imperial Censor and served in the Ming Dynasty court. He was a staunch supporter of Crown Prince Zhu Biao. He regarded Zhu Kai as a thorn in his side. If Zhu Kai and his men had a fight in Huaiyang Tower, Chen Ning would definitely know about it.

But he didn't expect that Chen Ning would hand over Huaiyang Tower to Zhu Kai, whom he regarded as a thorn in his side.

What does this mean?
Doesn’t this mean that Zhu Kai has already subdued Chen Ning?
"I didn't expect that Chen Laotie would also bow down to Brother Kai. It's really a shame!"

"Drink three cups!"

The group of people were overjoyed. Fei Qing patted his thigh and said to Zhu Kai, "Brother Kai, let's not go to Yingxiong Building or Qunying Pavilion to eat in the future. We have our own place, why would we go to take advantage of others?"

"It's okay, it's time to go!"

Zhu Kai said very proudly,
"In Yingtian Prefecture, any restaurant with a good reputation is our property. Brothers, you should eat and drink as you please."

You still have to pay when you have to.

Even if you are just keeping accounts, you have to pay the money. Opening a restaurant is not charity, you have to make money.

"Brother Kai is awesome!"

"The Second Prince is so awesome!"

The group of wise men praised him again, and Zhu Kai felt very proud after hearing it.

Who knew that Hu Tian suddenly asked: "Master Kai, where is the Qinhuai River case? That's the den of brothel!"

Zhu Kai: "...Get out of here!"

Then he kicked Hu Tian on the shoulder again and angrily said, "You bastard, I told you to read more, but you just wouldn't listen. The restaurant on the bank of Qinhuai River, is that something my wife can control? Where are we brothers going to play in the future?"

Everyone knew what the restaurant on the bank of Qinhuai River was like even without Zhu Kai saying it. It was the brothels where the scholars were romantic and the scent of rouge filled the air.

Zhu Kai and gambling and drugs are mortal enemies, but he didn't mention Huang's matter.

"Brother Kai is wise!"

"Black Monkey is just stupid, can't you guys just go buy two for yourself?"

"Yes, the best restaurant on the Qinhuai River must be in our own hands!"

Zhu Kai did not mention it again. After drinking, he strode out and said, "Brothers, if you want to hit Li Qi, just hit Li Qi. Don't damage the tables, chairs and benches in the restaurant. They are all ours. Even if they are damaged, it is Li Qi and Li You who destroyed them."

"understand!"

"Brother Kai is right. The damage was caused by Li Qi and Li You."

"Li Qi and Li You are the worst. We just can't stand them getting drunk and acting crazy."

……

Li Qi and Li You were discussing business matters. Although there were rumors that Zhu Yuanzhang was going to crack down on merchants, they were not afraid. His father (uncle) was Li Shanchang, the first meritorious minister of the founding of the Ming Dynasty. No matter how much Zhu Yuanzhang investigated the merchants, he could not find them.

Besides, your son Zhu Yuanzhang can take over the business of Yingtian Prefecture, but we can’t?

Li Qi and Li You were planning to learn from Zhu Kai and take over the business of Yingtian Prefecture for their own use. They thought it was a good idea to have the businessmen who came to host a banquet for them today. Not only did they drink and eat, they also invited five or six prostitutes from the Qinhuai River to accompany them for drinking. As the two men drank, their hands reached into the prostitutes' clothes. The room was very ambiguous.

When Zhu Kai kicked the door open, the room was filled with romance. Li Qi and Li You inside, who had been drinking, were preparing to transform into dragons when faced with storms. Suddenly, they saw the closed door being violently kicked open. They were so scared that they trembled all over and became weaklings.

"what!"

Five or six prostitutes screamed in fear, threw away their wine glasses and covered their disheveled clothes with their hands. The fat businessman had already been informed by Hu Tian, ​​so although he was nervous, he was not panicked: "I report that the two Li masters saw that our business was booming and forced me to transfer the business to them..."

I don’t know how many times I rehearsed it in my mind, but I couldn’t help but get excited when I said it.

This is Li Shanchang's son, and the son of Li Shanchang's younger brother. They are people who live in heaven. Yet he slandered these two people today. Even the smoke in his ancestors' graves would not allow him to do this.

However, Hu Tian’s father-in-law was very confused. Wasn’t it said that Hu Weiyong was Li Shanchang’s disciple?

Why did Hu Weiyong's son and Li Shanchang's son get along so well?
I don’t want to think about it anymore. I don’t want to think about it anymore.

This is a big shot's business and has nothing to do with me.

He just explained what his son-in-law told him to do, that's all.

"..."

Li Qi and Li You were both confused.

Didn’t you see that Li Shanchang had deep roots and came to us on his own initiative?
Li You was furious and pointed at the merchant and yelled, "You are slandering me!"

"Li You, you dare to point at my father-in-law?"

Hu Tian came out from behind like a monkey, and then looked at Zhu Kai: "Master Kai, the two of them relied on their status to bully my father-in-law. My poor father-in-law is just an ordinary citizen... Old man, why don't you cry quickly?"

Hu Tian reminded him of his concubine's father, and then the two of them began to cry and denounce Li Qi and Li You.

Does Zhu Kai need to find an excuse to beat Li Qi and Li You?
"Li Qi, Li You, did I tell you that if you see me in Yingtian Prefecture in the future, you should avoid me? Otherwise, I will beat you every time I see you."

Zhu Kai walked from the door into the private room with his bear-like body: "Why, you don't take my words seriously?"

"No, no."

Facing the oppressive feeling brought by Zhu Kai's approach, Li Qi felt that his breathing was suppressed: "I was deceived. I didn't know you were here."

"You don't know, but you showed up." Zhu Kai didn't listen to the explanation at all, and said to the prostitutes next to him who were like frightened little rabbits: "Get out, brothers, close the door and clear the place!"

The prostitute ran out, and was pinched by Hu Tian before leaving. Then he closed the door with a grin...

……

After defeating Li Qi and Li You, Zhu Kai suddenly felt that his trip out of the palace was successful, so he left with the other wise men and returned to the palace.

Zhu Di was also very happy. The two brothers rode their bicycles slowly towards the palace and boasted to Zhu Kai about their achievements in defeating Li Qi and Li You. Zhu Kai didn't care about it and didn't even listen carefully to what Zhu Di said. Zhu Di noticed that Zhu Kai had something on his mind.

I couldn't help but ask, "Brother, did something happen to you? Why are you so absent-minded? If there is anything, you can tell me, and I will do my best to help you."

Zhu Kai glanced at Zhu Di, who was swearing that he would fully support his second brother, and then said, "I was wondering, after beating Li Qi and Li You today, will our stepfather beat us when we go back?"

Hearing Zhu Kai's words, Zhu Di immediately retorted: "Li Qi and Li You oppressed the people, we are doing this to eliminate harm for the people, Dad, Dad...he can't beat us, right?"

The further he spoke, the softer Zhu Kai's voice became. He had been speaking confidently before, but by the end his voice was only as loud as a mosquito.

It seems that Hu Tian’s father-in-law is not an ordinary citizen either!
Even if he is just the father of a concubine, he cannot be said to be a commoner.

Besides, Zhu Kai had beaten Li Qi many times, basically every time he met him. The excuse Zhu Di made would not work at all with Zhu Yuanzhang.
