Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 86 Crowdfunding
The sound of humming and humming, shortness of breath every time you hear it; when you lift your swaying feet, you will feel the fragrant wind.

In the shadow of the lights, and in the brocade tent, a jade arm is busy shaking, and a golden lotus is held high.

Early in the morning, the winter sun shines through the screen window and shines into reality.

Zhu Yixi sat up from a gentle embrace, looked at the shy two, thought for a while, and said:

"What are your two names?"

"We are the sisters of His Highness King Rui's concubine's family."

The two girls got up shyly, and the thinner ones opened their watery eyes and said boldly: "My name is Zhang Yu, she is my younger sister, and her name is Zhang Man."

The younger sister, Zhang Man, lowered her head shyly, with her chin resting on her chest. She was very introverted, but it was the opposite on the bed.

Zhu Yixi nodded, Zhang Yuman, no, it's Zhang Yuyu...

Zhang Yu is smart and bold, but lacks stamina; Zhang Man is shy to the point of cowardice, but quite wild.

And what Zhu Yixi didn't expect was that they were actually relatives of King Rui.

However, although King Rui is over 50 years old, but in terms of seniority, he is the same as Zhu Yixi, so there is no confusion.

"Ms. Zhang?"

Zhu Yixi frowned and asked, "The Zhang family is very powerful in Hanzhong, right?"

"Our Zhang family is a merchant, and travels between Shaanxi and Sichuan, so we married King Rui, and we can use it to be a merchant."

While helping Zhu Yixi wear it, Zhang Yu endured the pain and said.

This is a marriage of interests...

Zhu Yixi nodded, seeing the pain of the two, she couldn't help but chuckled and said, "Thanks to you sisters being together, otherwise, the pain would be even worse."

The younger sister Zhang Man was very shy, her eyes were watery, and seeing the man was quite kind, she couldn't help but boldly said: "We learned before we came, but I didn't expect you to be so good..."

"Except that it's 20 years in a row."

Zhu Yixi dressed neatly, looked in the mirror, glanced at the two sisters, and couldn't help but said: "We, our foundation is solid, in the future, you will have a lot of opportunities to prove it."

"Let's keep it. It must be properly arranged in your family."

With that said, he left in a happy mood.

The boredom and stress of this period of time were swept away, and the bones seemed to be a few pounds lighter.

"It's not rude to come and go, Prince Rui's Mansion, I have to go and see it."

He left as soon as he said, and after a while, he left the yard.

The two sisters looked at each other.

The man just left without any regrets.

"We sisters, are you so inconspicuous?"

Zhang Yu muttered.

"Sister, at the very least, this gentleman is imposing and handsome!"

Sister Zhang Man couldn't help but whispered.

"That's right!"

Zhang Yu couldn't help laughing and said, "It's worth giving it up to Mr. Junlang."

……

When Zhu Yixi left the room, she saw Sun Xuan staring at her with complicated eyes.

"I do what I say."

Zhu Yixi didn't think it was disobedient, but said with a smile: "Don't just cry when the time comes."

Sun Xuan was embarrassed to look up at him now.

Women are just a part of life, just as a condiment.

Zhu Yixi didn't care too much.

Riding a carriage, he arrived at Prince Rui's Mansion.

It is magnificent and magnificent, with carved buildings and exquisite jade, occupying a quarter of Hanzhong City.

It's really a drought, a drought, and a flood.

Lao Tzu, Lieutenant of Fengguo, is even worse than a dog.

When King Rui heard that it was Zhu Guerrilla's visit, he hurriedly sent people to open the middle door to welcome him.

The old prince was well-informed, so he bowed his head when he should, and did not fight against it.

"Zhu Guerzilla, once you come, this mansion will be full of splendor!"

Old Rui Wang greeted him with a smile on his face.

Zhu Yixi greeted people who didn't smile when they opened their mouths.

For a while, the two sat down, accompanied by King Qin, who hadn't seen him for a long time.

It seems that King Rui gave him the courage, but this young King of Qin held his head high and had a bit of courage.

Zhu Yixi snorted coldly in his heart, and then glanced at him: "Yo, His Royal Highness Qin Wang is here, thanks to me, it's easy to find."

As he spoke, his eyes turned to his face, as if looking at two palm prints.

When King Qin saw it, he suddenly felt a little pain in his face.

He didn't dare to look directly, so he could only avoid it by lowering his head and drinking tea.

"I heard from Qin Fan that Governor Sun died in Tongguan?"

King Rui was rich, like a wealthy landlord, he asked nervously.

"That's right."

Zhu Yixi nodded, sighed, and said, "It's more important than Mount Tai for the supervisor to serve the country with death."

"Then, is it possible for the intruder to enter Hanzhong? Can the general hold it securely?"

Rui Wang Zhu Changhao asked hurriedly, his face full of concern.

Hearing this, Zhu Yixi's heart skipped a beat.

"Well, let me tell you the truth, in fact, I don't have much confidence!"

"Ah?" Old King Rui was startled, his gray beard trembled, and he said in disbelief, "You must have tens of thousands of soldiers!"

"Your Highness!" Zhu Yixi pretended to be embarrassed: "Although I have thousands of people, there are millions of intruders. How can this be worth it!"

"Then what should we do?"

King Rui panicked, and King Qin beside him also panicked, and the hand holding the tea trembled unconsciously.

Only then did Zhu Yixi say in a deep voice: "It's nothing more than recruiting troops and buying horses, so that it can be defended."

"Then go recruit soldiers!"

"But, Your Highness, there is not so much money and food! Weapons, armor, and gunpowder all cost money!"

"This……"

Hearing the money, Old Rui Wang's eyes regained clarity. He picked up the tea, took a sip, and sighed:

"Guerrilla, just tell me how much money you need. Although this king is poor, he will contribute as much as he can to Hanzhong."

Zhu Yixi frowned.

Do what you can, do what you do.

Co-authored, the prince of the old Zhu family has the genes of his great-grandfather's poverty flowing in his bones?

He glanced at King Qin, this bastard, for the sake of the same clan, he borrowed a stone of grain back then.

"50 taels, one point less is not enough."

Zhu Yixi opened his mouth wide open.

"Cough cough cough—" Hearing this, Old Rui Wang choked on the tea and almost carried it on his back.

King Qin on the side took a deep breath, Zhu Yixi is really open-mouthed.

After a while, King Rui came to his senses. He pointed at Zhu Yixi and said, "You really dare to open your mouth."

"The old man ran dozens of times to manage the household department, and only got 10 taels. You are more ruthless than this old man."

"That's what you said."

Zhu Yixi felt a little sorry for thinking that she was so mad at her just after taking in the two girls.

He hurriedly supported him and said, "Well, I have an idea. Listen, it must be better than 50 taels."

"What do you think."

Old King Rui panted and asked curiously.

"It's not your responsibility to guard Hanzhong alone, the whole Hanzhong should contribute."

Zhu Yixi leaned her hands behind her back, and said crisply and eloquently: "Who is not afraid of thieves asking for wages and gentry destroying their homes?"

"So, why don't we crowdfund a crowd, raise money and food together, recruit soldiers and buy horses, is it better than being ransacked?"

"Then don't I still have to pay?" King Rui asked hurriedly.

"That's what I said."

Zhu Yixi hurried over and said temptingly: "As long as you donate 10 taels in the crowdfunding, as long as it exceeds one million, I will return the 10 taels."

King Rui rolled his eyes.

"In addition, for every 10 taels, I will give you 1 taels. If it reaches 200 million, you will be credited with 10 taels."

Old Rui Wang Teng stood up suddenly, put his hands on his shoulders, calm and strong, his eyes approached, and he said through gritted teeth: "Is this true?"

"a man of his words!"

Zhu Yixi's face was full of sincerity.
