"What, Panku checking the accounts?!" Yang Wei, who had always been brave, became completely impotent when he heard these words. He looked straight at Wu Liang, his mouth opening and closing, as if a drowning fish was saying, 'Hurry up, it's going to be over...'

Wu Liang also knew that his underwear would be exposed when he checked the inventory. Finally, the old god was no longer around, and he changed his expression and said: "Your Highness, the Crown Prince only asked you to inspect the shipyard, but he didn't ask you to take inventory and audit the accounts!"

"What, no?" Lao Liu returned to his lazy and angry look.

"It's not impossible, it's just that once the inventory is taken, the shipyard will have to stop work. Jiangfang and Haiphong are all waiting for ships. If the construction period is delayed, the emperor will blame it." Wu Liangqiang said rationally:

"So Your Highness, how about we each give in and only check the accounts, not the inventory?"

"You are doing business with me, and you are still bargaining?" Lao Liu sneered: "If we stop work, we will stop work. It delays the construction period. The emperor blames it. I will bear the responsibility and it has nothing to do with you!"

Isn't it just getting beaten? I am used to it. His Royal Highness the King of Chu's buttocks is not as thick-skinned as King Yan's, but it is thickly fleshed.

"National affairs are not child's play!" Wu Liang was about to break his defense, and shouted with a red face and thick neck: "In short, His Highness cannot take inventory without decree!"

"You want a decree? This is not easy." King Chu said calmly: "Tell me, what kind of decree do you want? I will ask my elder brother to write it to you."

"You..." Facing this sixth man who used the prince as a tool, Wu Liang truly understood what it meant to be a rogue.

"I'm going to reason with the emperor. You can't let His Highness do what you want!" Marquis Jiangyin angrily got on his horse and left the same way...

"My father also listens to my eldest brother now!" King Chu shouted from behind with his hands around his mouth: "Why don't you go to my mother to plead for mercy, maybe it will be useful..."

The Marquis of Jiangyin almost fell off his horse.

But Lao Liu was telling the truth. Now the emperor rarely meets with ministers except when he goes to court. All military and state affairs will be handled by the prince.

Some of the old brothers were dissatisfied with the prince and kept pestering him to see him, but he scolded them all back.

Wu Liang heard from Pingliang Marquis Fei Ju that day that he had finally found the opportunity to complain to the emperor, saying that everyone was not used to the style of His Highness the Crown Prince.

But Boss Zhu scolded him like crazy: ‘Not used to it? That is your future emperor. Who gave you the courage to say that you are not used to it? ! "

And because he was so angry, Boss Zhu even beat him.

As long as he thinks of Fei Ju's dark eyes, Wu Liang doesn't have the courage to go to Boss Zhu.

Meeting Queen Ma might be really useful, but can he meet Queen Ma?

So after entering the right gate of Chang'an, he turned around and went to Zhongshu Province.

~~

In Zhongshu Province, Prime Minister Zuo was in the room.

"Hahaha, what brought the Marquis of Jiangyin here?" Hu Weiyong smiled and asked Wu Liang to sit down at the coffee table, and made tea for him with his own hands.

"Hu Xiang, you have to take care of it!" Wu Liang shouted angrily, slapping his thigh.

"What do I have to worry about?" Hu Weiyong asked.

"Lao Liu..." Wu Liang snorted angrily.

"I'm just saying "Lao Liu" to you, I shouldn't meddle in your business!" Hu Weiyong frowned and reprimanded: "Is that what you should call me Lao Liu? If I call you His Highness the King of Chu, will you lose two taels of meat?"

Since he officially took over Li Shanchang's mantle, especially after becoming Prime Minister Zuo, his majesty is now increasing. He could only remain polite to a few princes; but he was never polite when reprimanding the marquis in Huaixi.

But the more he behaves like this, the more Wu Liang and the others are convinced by him, thinking that he has a temper, is capable, and can hold up the power of Huaixi...

"Okay, I won't call you that anymore." Wu Liang said sarcastically: "From now on, I will honestly call you Your Highness the King of Chu, that's all."

"I know that you are not angry. You have worked hard to build a country, but you can only be granted the title of Marquis." Hu Weiyong made tea for him and said: "But some people are born as princes, and of course they feel unbalanced. But this is life, and there is never fairness. There’s nothing to say.”

"Understood, Mr. Hu, let's finish today's class here." Wu Liang said with a wry smile: "The treasure shipyard is very anxious!"

"Lao Liu went to Bao Shipyard?" Hu Weiyong was surprised.

Wu Liang cursed secretly: ‘Fuck, don’t let us scream, I scream more happily than anyone else! ’

"Yes, he didn't know what happened. He took the prince's handwriting and ran to the Bao Shipyard early this morning!" Wu Liang told Hu Weiyong what happened. Finally he said depressedly:

"I wanted to muddle through, but then...His Royal Highness the King of Chu suddenly got into a fight with me, and in the end he insisted on making an inventory and checking the accounts! If we let him do an inventory, wouldn't the matter of our reselling warships be completely exposed? ?”

"It's your brothers who are reselling, but I didn't participate in it!" Hu Weiyong snorted: "I have said before, you can't accept the money from those pirates! Can't you just rely on the filial piety of the big families in the south of the Yangtze River to support you?!"

"Oh, Prime Minister, things are not that simple." Wu Liang said with a wry smile: "There are two strongest groups of pirates at sea, one is Fang Guozhen's old group, and the other is Chen Youding's old group. My brother's Japanese navy, and These two groups of pirates are somewhat passionate. Let them go in and suppress them, and there will always be someone who can tip them off, but they won't do anything.

"So we can only focus on Huairou and try our best to drive a wedge between the two gangs of pirates. However, after the Chen Bu pirates retreated to Penghu, they were able to buy two thousand Guangzhou ships from Guangdong merchants, and their strength gradually surpassed Fangbu pirates.

"If we don't help them improve their strength, they will probably be destroyed by the Chen tribe soon. By then, the pirate family will be the only one in power, and it will be too difficult to control."

"So you just sell sea ships to them?" Hu Weiyong asked angrily.

"Yes." Wu Liang nodded and said, "This is the balancing technique that the Korean father taught us..."

"Are you guys playing with balance like this? You are playing with fire! Sooner or later you will get yourself into it!" Hu Weiyong scolded.

"Yes, I won't dare to do it again in the future." Wu Liang hurriedly smiled and said, "But this time, the Prime Minister will do whatever he says to help us get through this."

"What are your ideas?" Hu Weiyong asked noncommittally, taking a sip of tea.

"I thought on the way here that I might as well just stop doing it and have a fire dragon burn the warehouse and burn it to ashes. Let's see how they investigate it?" Wu Liang said fiercely, and then smiled:

"It's just that when the time comes, the Prime Minister and the brothers will need a lot of help to prevent them from finding out about the brothers."

"No, this idea is too stupid. What if you burn His Highness to death?" Hu Weiyong shook his head decisively.

"Burn him to death." Wu Liang said bitterly.

Hu Weiyong's pupils shrank when he heard this, every one of these nobles were desperadoes.

Thinking that he was also a swindler, he regained his composure and said: "It's useless for you to burn the warehouse with fire dragons. There are thousands of people in the Bao Shipyard. The King of Chu will definitely be able to find out the truth."

"This..." Wu Liang was immediately furious.

"Let's do the cutting." Hu Weiyong poured out the tea in the purple clay pot.

Wu Liang froze when he heard this, shook his head and said, "No, I can't leave it clean."

"It's just about right." Hu Weiyong said calmly: "You have a divine position in the Temple of Meritorious Officers. If you get a high position, you have to lose face..."

"Alas..." Wu Liang was dejected.
