Chapter 171 The prince wants to supervise the country

The New Year's Eve dinner ended until late at night. The emperor kept staring at Yu Zhigan, hoping that Yu Zhigan would make the second half of the sentence.

Unfortunately, Yu Zhi suddenly had no inspiration after he started to do it, and he never continued the second half. The emperor couldn't help but sigh. The prince, this guy, always flashed inspiration, and he stopped writing halfway through his article.

As for the other ministers, they did not continue this poem. The emperor looked at the half poem on his desk and felt itchy...

After the dinner, Yu Zhigan returned to the East Palace drunk. When he woke up the next day, he looked at the sky and couldn't help but sigh. The new year has arrived, and the emperor has also changed the reign to be the first year of Shunchang this year. Although he didn't know why, Yu Zhigan thought that the year name was pretty good.

No major incident happened in the East Palace, and no houses collapsed again. The East Palace has been calm on the first day of the new year. Everyone has a smile on their faces. Many guards and some of the people on their faces all received news that the second prince Yu Tai was removed from the title of King of Wei and became a prince and was driven back to the fiefdom. He left the capital overnight last night. The position of the prince was completely stabilized. In the future, his own group of people...

The emperor also had a rare time to rest. It was the first time Yu Zhigan went to pay his respects to his mother. After seeing his father, he saw the figure of his father. He didn't count the ones he had arrived before. The emperor looked at the prince who kowtowed to him lazily.

"Get up!"

"Father, where is the red envelope?"

"Red envelope?"

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and Yu Zhigan stretched out his hand: "Father, my son should pay his respects to his father and mother. My father and mother should give him New Year's money!"

Don't pay if you knock your head down?

The emperor laughed loudly, and after getting up, he was served, he put on his clothes. He took out a gold bag from somewhere and fell down. There was a golden leaf inside and handed it to Yu Zhigan.

“…”

As for Yu Zhigan's mother, Empress Liu, she was much more generous and gave Yu Zhigan two golden leaves... Yu Zhigan carefully took a bite in front of the two and confirmed that there was no problem, and was kicked out of the palace.

"Father, you cannot beat or scold people during the Chinese New Year, which is unlucky!"

Yu Zhigan was talking while running quickly, followed by an emperor chasing him with a stick. Yu Ye was angry with Yu Zhigan early in the morning. This rebel actually suspected that the golden leaves he gave were not real...

After collecting three golden leaves, Yu Zhigan's purse was considered rich. When he woke up in the morning, Yu Zhigan asked about the financial situation of the East Palace in Chen Wansan. The finances of the East Palace were still a little unhappy. There were too many flowers before the New Year, and of course they were not poor. The East Palace also collected a lot of things, but they had not yet cashed in.

Kicking three golden leaves is the time when Yu Zhi was working for the most money in his pocket. He used to take silver before, so what family could kick the golden leaves in his pocket? This thing was not used in ancient times, so he had to go to some shops to exchange the golden leaves.

When I went to Dongshi, Yu Zhigan went to see how his two newly opened shops were doing. Whether he could make a big profit during the Chinese New Year depends on the business of these two shops!

Last night, fireworks were everywhere, and people in Chang'an City saw it. Many people were asking what was in the sky. When the dinner parted, the ministers in the court conveyed the news of Yu Zhigan's fireworks.

Don’t underestimate the speed of transmission of this kind of news. It spreads very quickly at night. By dawn, all the officials knew the names of fireworks and cakes. The servants in the mansion went out to purchase the news, and the news was passed on again. The entire Chang'an City had already known it.

When Yu Zhigan came to Dongshi, Dongshi had already become lively. Although most people had to visit relatives and friends, some people would still come to Dongshi for a walk. Chang'an City is like this. It has become a tradition to go to Dongshi for a walk if you have something to do.

Although there are not as many people in Chang'an City during the Chinese New Year as before, there are still crowds of people. Many shops have started to hold activities. This discount trend is still reported by the wine shops that Yu Zhi has done.

What are the New Year's Day rewards, 20% off Tanggou wine, how much to buy, what to get something for? This kind of promotional method is a combo, and the winery business opened by the emperor was hit hard by Yu Zhidan, so he had to start reducing the price.

However, Yu Zhi's method was secretly learned by other businesses. The ancients' learning ability cannot be underestimated. What you have made here will be able to copy the clay tomorrow!

There was already a long queue in front of the fireworks shop. Yu Zhigan sat in the restaurant opposite and drank for a while and nodded with satisfaction. It was a huge profit, definitely a huge profit. The ten consecutive thoughts of fireworks sold for three taels of silver each, and the cost was only a dozen cents. The most expensive eight series, and sixty-four series costs more than one hundred taels. Someone actually bought it...

Compared to the fireworks business, the cake shop business is a bit bad. Yu Zhigan frowned and walked in and found that there are still people in the store. However, most of them bought one or two cakes and left. Looking at the price, Yu Zhigan touched his chin. Did he set a little higher? Is it expensive to sell a cake with a diameter of about ten centimeters?

Despite this, the cake shop has bought more than fifty cakes until now, and the amount of more than one hundred taels of cake is available. Although it does not make money from the fireworks shop, Yu Zhigan is still very satisfied.

After inspecting the shop, Yu Zhigan picked up some wine from the winery and started visiting relatives and friends. The car was ready at a location at the entrance of Dongshi. Yu Zhigan needed to place his two father-in-law and go to the palace for lunch...

In the palace, the princes, emperors, Empress Liu and the other princes' biological mothers sat around a round table, chatting in a low voice while eating.

The other prince's mothers peeked at Yu Zhigan, thinking in their minds how to educate their prince later and establish a good relationship with Yu Zhigan, otherwise the outcome might be the same as the second prince.

The second prince's mother was not qualified to attend this dinner because of the second prince. However, the queen still asked someone to prepare a piece of food and delivered it to her. The emperor slowly ate the meal and looked at the sons below, and slowly spoke: "Third brother, how have you learned martial arts recently?"

When he heard his father ask and asked about martial arts, his eyes lit up: "Father, my son is diligent in the past year and has made great efforts in martial arts!"

"Well, let's fight with the guards later and see your martial arts!"

Yu Zhigan swept his father and didn't know why he suddenly wanted to take the third brother's martial arts exam in school. Forget it, everyone who has seen it knows that he is probably a good player in his skills!

"Fourth brother, your handwriting is good. After dinner, copy a few poems written by your elder brother!"

"Here!"

"Old Wu!"

The emperor looked at the fifth prince. This guy was good at painting. After thinking for a while, he spoke: "Please cooperate with the fourth brother and draw the poem!"

"Here!"

After the emperor finished speaking, he looked at Lao Liu and thought for a moment: "Lao Liu, see if you can make up for your elder brother's poems!"

"Here!"

The two elders and eighth brothers, the emperor thought for a while and gave some things to do. The emperor said neither hurry nor slow, and in the end, only one Yu Zhi was left. After the emperor took a bite of the dish, he slowly spoke: "After the spring, I am going to go out for a walk. You can stay in Chang'an State Supervisor!"

When Yu Zhigan heard this, he almost spit out a bite of rice. The country was supervising???

The emperor ignored Yu Zhigan and continued to eat, while the other concubines had already stirred up huge waves in their hearts, constantly winking at their prince...

After a meal was finished in a strange atmosphere, when Yu Zhigan returned to the Eastern Palace, the emperor's meal was spread for some reason. Many outside the palace had already known it, and smarter people instantly understood the emperor's meaning.

The emperor arranged all the princes' affairs, which almost revolved around Yu Zhigan. The meaning was that these princes assisted Yu Zhigan, and when he went out, he kept Yu Zhigan to supervise the country in order to train Yu Zhigan.

Yu Zhigan returned to the East Palace and sat in the study with a frown. His father's heart was really big. He said he would go out for a walk? He would throw such a big country to himself directly? Isn't he afraid that he would end the country?

When he thought of the mountain of memorials on the emperor's desk and the endless government affairs... Yu Zhigan now wished he could rush to his father and point at his nose and ask, wasn't it agreed to be five years? Why did he suddenly start to regret it? Let himself start to supervise the country now?

"No, I must find a way to stop my father from going out. What if I am ambitious when I go out, I will go to Jiangnan six times or seven times like a shameless emperor? I finally have to realize my financial freedom and can make the best of my heart. How can I give up so easily?

Yu Zhigan kept thinking about what could be something that could drag down his father's footsteps?

"In the beginning of spring, the roads will be muddy and inconvenient to pass?"

Yu Zhigan suddenly thought of a good idea, and Yu Zhigan immediately started writing memorials. Yu Zhigan rarely wrote memorials because memorials are too troublesome and there are many rules and regulations.

First of all, the format is the format, first ask hello, then sigh, etc. Finally, the content is written. Yu Zhigan doesn’t know how to write about this thing, but just briefly wrote about the reasons why it is not suitable for travel in spring. The first road is muddy and inconvenient to travel. There are also travel in spring, people need to plow spring, delaying the plowing of spring, etc.

I mentioned before that the emperor had too many travel rules. He almost went to one place and was tossed for a long time.

After the memorial was written, Yu Zhigan sent someone to the palace. Not long after, a little eunuch sent the memorial to Yu Zhigan back.

"The road has been built and the cement has a great effect..."

After Yu Zhigan finished watching it, he almost vomited blood and cheated himself. His father was really crazy. In the middle of winter, people used cement to build roads. How much manpower and material resources does it take? Where did his father get so much money?

Taking a deep breath, Yu Zhigan thought about the other questions and started writing memorials again. For example, when the emperor travels, he must have a palace. Now most of the palaces in the world are in disrepair. If you want to travel, you have to prepare for a year, and you will be ordered to re-educate the palace, etc.

This time the memorial was not beaten back so quickly. Yu Zhigan breathed a little relieved. His father still had some requirements for him. After all, it was the emperor who lived in it, so it was not too bad.

Yu Zhigan thought he had stabilized his father. After a little relieved, he should not be able to travel this year. Even if he travels in the second half of the year, he would cause some trouble at that time. Maybe the emperor's travel plan would be ruined?

However, early in the morning the next day, a little eunuch sent Yu Zhigan back yesterday's memorial. After Yu Zhigan opened it and looked at it, he couldn't help but roll his eyes. His father had already prepared a lot. Last year, he ordered the renovation of palaces in various places...

"When I wanted to build the Eastern Palace, I had no money, and I was rich as expected when I repaired my own palace. I really wanted to complain about my cheap father, so I took a deep breath and started writing the memorial again.

The content of this memorial is that the emperor is the foundation of the country and cannot go on patrol easily. The prince can go on patrol on behalf of the emperor, inspect the world, etc.

Until the Lantern Festival, Yu Zhigan had been writing memorials for his cheap father, but without exception, he was excused by his cheap father. Yu Zhigan racked his brains to think of something, and the emperor easily refused, as if everyone was under the control of the emperor.

"Your Highness, Your Majesty has an order. This year's Lantern Festival poetry meeting will be held in the Royal Villa. You need to preside over it at that time!"

On the Lantern Festival, another old eunuch came to the East Palace. Yu Zhigan was stunned after hearing this: "Yunxiao Poetry Club? What is this?"

Yu Zhigan came to Yu Tang Empire for more than half a year. He had never heard of any poetry gatherings in Yu Tang Empire, or had never attended any poetry gatherings. Yu Tang Empire was martial, and there were poets, but his voice was very weak. The poets Yu Zhigan met seemed to be Li Bai and Wang Wei who met when the wine shop opened. He didn't expect that there would be poetry gatherings...

"Your Majesty, the Chang'an Poetry Association is a poetry meeting held by the royal family. Every year, a large number of literati and poets will participate in it. In order to promote the civil affairs of our dynasty, although our dynasty is martial, most of all literati and poets wear swords. They will be heroes or raids on weekdays, but when the Chang'an Poetry Association is time, they will..."

Yu Zhigan listened to Zhang Xiaojing's report and roughly understood what it meant. The literati of the Yu Tang Empire belonged to the kind of people who could fight the world on horseback and recite poems and essays on horseback. There were few people who could only recite poems and write poems without the power to tie a chicken.

Even Lu Bu, one of the three deposed people in the East Palace, has poor martial arts skills, but he can ride a horse and shoot archery. If he meets an ordinary person who has not learned martial arts, he can deal with one or two people. He is also a sergeant when he is left in the army.
