Chapter 414 Let’s Go to the Scene
Hey! You know what, this feels really good!
The Eighth Prince looked at his tenth brother who was playing tricks on him, and then looked at Yinzhen who was watching the show over there, and said, "Okay, both of you brothers are kind-hearted." He was wrong, okay?
However, it was already very good that the ninth and tenth brothers were kind to him. As for his uncle Wei Sanlang, the matter had already happened and could not be suppressed. Everyone who should know knew it. The eighth prince looked at Yinzhen and asked, "What did you do? Did you tell my third aunt?"
Minister Hang took the dried apricots handed over by Yinzhen, looked at Yinzhen for a few times, and finally ate them. They were not very sour and tasted good. He approached Yinzhen and asked, "Is this thing sweetened?"
"It was made by Master's wife. She should have steamed it first and added it while steaming. I'm not sure. If you want to eat it, go to the shop opened by Master's wife. I remember it was called Taotie Snacks. The food there is good. We can buy some and take it with us when we go to work. We can eat one when we are hungry," Yinzhen did not forget to recommend the shop to his own Yaoyao!
A customer is still a customer. If Hang Ai eats well, then all his connections are customers, which means there are a lot of them!
Even though Hang Ai doesn't have much money, most of his connections are well-off!
"Hey, Ninth Prince, I heard that the Ninth Lady's shop has some kind of membership card, and the highest level has more discounts. Ninth Prince, you also know that I am poor. I have such a big family to support, and money is everywhere, but I only have a small salary," Hang Ai sighed deeply, his old eyes fixed on Yinzhen.
Yinzhen: ...
This old guy is so shameless, no wonder the Emperor always says that the most shameless people are those old ruffians in the morning court!
"That's the shop opened by my master's wife, and you want to take advantage of it!" Yinzhen was unhappy.
"The cement issue over there, Master Jiu, is going to spread to the Hebei area now?" Hang Ai stroked the little beard on his chin, his eyes filled with smile, it was obvious that he had someone!
"You old fellow, when I went to invite you before, you just laughed it off. Now you're exposed over a dried fruit!" Yinzhen was so angry. No matter how hard he tried, all the benefits he got were not as good as a dried fruit!
How funny! Just kidding!
There was a different look flashing in Hang Ai's eyes. How could he agree to a serious visit? What if the emperor misunderstood him as forming a clique for personal gain?
He is so old now, since he has decided not to get involved, then he won't get involved. If Yinzhen came directly via the formal route, Hang Ai would not refuse. Yinzhen did not leave!
But now, what's wrong with a dried fruit?
He can get a lot of food, and also provide plenty of snacks for his children and grandchildren, and give a chance to his subordinates. Why not do it!
This method would not cause the emperor to be too wary. After all, the Eighth Prince and the Tenth Prince were present at the occasion. If he had not dared to do so before, everyone knows that the eight, nine, and three princes have broken up now!
Hang Ai didn't really make this deal just for a piece of dried fruit. He had long wanted to give his disciples a chance, but he just hadn't found the right opportunity. This was an opportunity, just right!
"In the early years, I served as an official in many places and have some friendship with the people there. Several of their children don't have much talent in studying, but they all have a skill and we have had friendship for many years. It just so happened that I heard that there was an opportunity on the Ninth Prince's side, so I am here to introduce him. However, if I can get some money in exchange so that I can spend less money to buy things from your and your wife's shop, I will be even happier," Hang Ai smiled like a Maitreya Buddha. He calculated this with his own ability, so how could he be embarrassed!
"Old fox!" Yin Yan stared at the Eighth Prince, then turned to look at Shangshu Hang and muttered,
The Eighth Prince did not say anything. He also wanted to intervene in the cement matter, but he knew what he wanted. Now that he could get the attention of the Emperor and be treated sincerely by his eldest brother and the second brother, the Crown Prince, he was already very satisfied!
The Eighth Prince will not force his ninth and tenth brothers. He has used them for more than ten years, and their brotherhood has been exhausted long ago. Being able to gain their forgiveness and still treat them like ordinary brothers shows how magnanimous they are!
He would not interfere with his ninth and tenth brothers' things, and this was something he could do on his own.
Yin also glanced at the smiling Eighth Prince with caution, "My Brother is also interested?"
Seeing Yin Yu being so wary of him, the Eighth Prince cursed inwardly that this was his retribution, but his expression did not change. "No, now I am following my second brother, the Crown Prince, and I also have to take care of the Ministry of Rites. How can I have the time to think about what you and my ninth brother did? If you don't believe me, ask Minister Hang."
When Minister Hang was mentioned like this, he glanced at the three princes who were looking at him. The joke of these three princes was not so funny. There were many tricks between them, and they all bullied an honest man like him!
"Although the Ministry of Rites is relaxed, there are a lot of trivial matters every day. That being said, the Ministry of Rites' major events are sensational. Under normal circumstances, it is not busy, but when it is busy, it will be busy for several months. For example, the Ministry of Rites is now preparing for your marriage, the Tenth Prince."
The preparation for a prince's wedding takes a long time, even down to a plate has to be arranged properly, otherwise it would be a disgrace to the Qing royal family!
It can even be said that the Tenth Prince's marriage is more important than the Ninth Prince and his friends' marriages. The Tenth Prince's marriage is not only a prince's marriage, but also a marriage of alliance!
Yinzhen glanced at the Eighth Prince, raised his eyes and smiled to change the subject, "Minister Hang, the transaction between you and me, we will talk about it in detail later. We need to see who you have on your side." Then he ate leisurely and did not forget to give other food to Minister Hang. Yinzhen came over and grabbed several pieces.
Yinzhen looked at the Eighth Prince with a smile, "Eighth Brother, what if I really sent a message to your Third Aunt?"
"Then spread it." The Eighth Prince was not angry about this and smiled faintly, "Whether you tell it or not, Third Uncle will lose face. As for how to solve it, that is also the Wei family's business. I...ha, what can I do to interfere!"
In fact, the Wei family didn't take him seriously, but his uncles were all nice. After all, they couldn't really help much.
"However, please accompany me to my third uncle's house. Although my third uncle may seem uncomfortable in the eyes of outsiders, I know that he has given me a lot of money and has really tried his best," the Eighth Prince would not have said this before. He was too ashamed to say these words.
But now that he has the attention of the Emperor, he feels that revealing in front of his brothers that he has no power, no connections, and no money is not a big deal.
"Minister Hang wants to come along? You can go to the scene," Yinzhen did not look at the expression of his own brother. He knew clearly that no matter what his brother thought now, the friendship between them was long gone. He did not have the heart to reminisce about it, and his brother did not need it either!
To be honest, he and the starling are very similar in character. They won't force something that cannot be remedied!
