The most romantic little emperor

After the morning court session, Duke Zhu quickly caught up with the prince.

The two of them were talking and laughing. When the ministers saw this scene, they looked at each other in bewilderment. They wondered when Zhu Gui had managed to marry the prince, and were filled with envy.

When Su Zhengfang saw this, he was so angry that he snorted coldly and said, "What are you looking at? Don't block the way."

When Dong Sicheng saw this, he pondered for a moment and his eyes became gloomy.

After leaving the palace, Qin Hao said, "Father-in-law, would you like to go to my house for a cup of tea?"

Zhu Gui waved his hand and said, "Go again after some time! I have some things to deal with when I return."

Qin Hao whispered in his ear, "Father-in-law, please ask my second brother-in-law to come to the East Palace. I have something important to discuss with you."

When Zhu Gui heard that the prince was looking for his second son, he thought it might be about the two million taels of silver and fifty thousand dan of grain. He couldn't understand it. Although his family was rich, he couldn't come up with so much money and grain at once!

Seeing Zhu Gui remained silent, Qin Hao knew what he was thinking, but he didn't take it to heart. He said, "Father-in-law, don't worry. I will naturally discuss something good with my second uncle."

Zhu Gui's eyes lit up and he quickly agreed.

After returning to Taizao Mansion, Qin Hao went directly to the study to handle government affairs.

After a while, Ah Yue said at the door: "Your Highness, Zhu Yongkang is here."

Qin Hao hurried out to greet them, but unexpectedly Zhu Qiqi also came, which made him even happier.

Zhu Qiqi was seen wearing a gorgeous silk dress, with rosy cheeks and red lips, and a pretty face, what a lady from a noble family!

She walked towards me with light lotus steps, like a beautiful flower blooming in spring, which was amazing.

Qin Hao's eyes lit up and he exclaimed: "Sister Qiqi is getting more and more beautiful, especially this outfit, which has a unique charm."

Zhu Qiqi smiled sweetly and said, "Your Highness, you are too kind. It's the first time for Qiqi to dress like this, and I'm still a little uncomfortable. I think military uniforms are more comfortable."

Qin Hao shook his head and said with a smile: "Qiqi is naturally beautiful, she looks good in any clothes."

After that, he turned to Zhu Yongkang and said, "Second uncle, you are here, please come in."

After exchanging some pleasantries, the guests took their seats and Qin Hao asked A Yue to prepare some refreshments.

After eating some snacks, Qin Hao said with a smile: "Qiqi, this is your first time in the East Palace! Let A Yue take you around so that you can get familiar with the environment in advance."

When Qiqi heard what the prince said, her face flushed. She nodded, bowed, slowly stood up, and left with A Yue.

Seeing Qiqi leave, Zhu Yongkang's eyes flashed with a trace of doubt, but he quickly adjusted himself and said, "Your Highness, I wonder what important matter is there for summoning me to the East Palace?"

Qin Hao smiled and said, "Second uncle, you don't have to be so distant when we're talking to each other. This is what I want you to do."

Zhu Yongkang was stunned and asked, "I wonder what His Highness wants me to do?"

Qin Hao said mysteriously: "What I want you to do is to raise food and money."

Zhu Yongkang looked embarrassed and scratched his head, "Your Highness, I..."

Qin Hao interrupted him directly, "I know what you want to say. Listen to me, the construction of Yongle Palace has been stopped. You should dismantle the most valuable things and auction them. All the silver will be used for disaster relief. Do you understand?"

Zhu Yongkang nodded and said with a simple smile, "I know, it's just selling things, that's easy, as long as this matter goes through me, I will guarantee to sell it at a high price and raise more money for military pay."

Qin Hao was so angry that he vomited blood. "Auction, do you understand? If you don't understand, I will teach you."

Zhu Yongkang asked back: "Your Highness, I know about auctions. Isn't it the same as auctioning girls in brothels?"

Qin Hao nodded and explained seriously, "It's just that our auction is slightly different from the auction in the brothel. We auction items instead of people."

"First, you need to find a suitable venue. The venue should be large enough, grand enough, and the surrounding environment should be good enough."

"Then you find some pretty girls to serve as maids, wearing the same uniform and sexy clothes, serving tea and water, and even encouraging customers to bid."

"You can use the Zhu family's influence in the capital to invite all the rich and powerful, dandies, second-generation rich, second-generation officials, celebrities, and even foreign tycoons in the capital to bid here."

"Also, we can provide free drinks and food. Anyone who wants to bid must pay ten taels of silver."

……

After hearing the prince's idea, Zhu Yongkang was so excited that he felt like he had been injected with chicken blood and was extremely happy.

Afterwards, Qin Hao picked up a pen and paper and started writing and drawing. He wrote down the auction matters, auction procedures and other contents clearly on the paper. Finally, he picked up the pen and wrote a few big words "The No. 1 Auction House in Beijing".

"Find someone to create a high-end, grand, and classy plaque, and sign it with my name."

Qin Hao casually picked up a prince's token and threw it to him, saying, "This token is given to you. Do what is appropriate and don't use it carelessly. The auction house must be open within three days. Whether the relief food and money can be raised depends on you. Don't let this king down."

Zhu Yongkang took the token, accepted it solemnly, and repeatedly assured that he would never let the prince down.

After saying that, he left in a hurry. When he reached the door, he happened to meet his sister.

Seeing that he looked hurried, Zhu Qiqi quickly pulled him aside and asked him what the prince had said to him.

Zhu Yongkang smiled mysteriously and said, "It's a secret."

After saying that, he left in a flash, and Zhu Qiqi was so angry that she stamped her feet on the spot, muttering, "What's the big deal? If you don't tell me, I'll go ask the prince."

Zhu Qiqi came to the prince's study, and Qin Hao hurriedly came up. Seeing that no one was around, he took her hand and said affectionately: "Qiqi, you don't know how much I miss you, let me take a good look at you."

Zhu Qiqi snorted, "Your Highness, is that so exaggerated? We just met yesterday, how long has it been since then?"

Qin Hao laughed and placed her hand on his chest. "Touch me and see if I really miss you. I miss you so much that it feels like a long time since I last saw you!"

Zhu Qiqi's face flushed, she was very shy, she lowered her head and dared not look at him, she whispered: "Your Highness, I miss you too."

"Qiqi, what did you say? I didn't hear you, can you say it again?" Qin Hao teased deliberately.

Zhu Qiqi blushed with shame, pushed Qin Hao's hand away, and said softly: "Your Highness only knows how to tease me, I won't say anything more."

After saying that, he was about to flee from the study.

Qin Hao was not willing to miss this infinite beauty, so he stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms. They looked into each other's eyes and he whispered:

The fragrant face is shy but then smiles, the willow waist is as warm as if drunk, and the sun is shining like a long spring as we go down the stairs.

I comb my hair while looking at the water with affection, I lean against the railing with no thoughts and put on my shoes, my eyes are filled with sadness and I am too lazy to go home.

When Zhu Qiqi heard the prince's meaningful poems, she closed her eyes and slightly opened her red lips, as if waiting for the prince to pick them.

“When flowers are in bloom, you must pick them; don’t wait until there are no flowers left to pluck.” Qin Hao couldn’t bear to disappoint the beauty, so he slowly approached Zhu Qiqi’s jade-like face, gently held her red lips, and kissed her deeply and passionately.

Zhu Qiqi's delicate body trembled, her head tilted back slightly, and she hugged the prince's waist tightly with both hands, as gentle and submissive as water.

The two of them lingered and lingered tenderly, just like the warm water of a spring river, which made her whole body soft and tremble, as if she was in the clouds.

At this moment, Zhu Qiqi's heart was filled with happiness and satisfaction. She knew the prince's intentions very well, and she also understood that she was attached to him.

After a long time, the two reluctantly parted.

Qin Hao and Zhu Qiqi are relaxed and happy together, and Zhu Qiqi hasn't been so happy for a long time.

The two of them stayed together for a long time and talked about many interesting things, from palace secrets to capital anecdotes and military trivia. No matter what the subject, Qin Hao had unique insights, which made Zhu Qiqi feel refreshed and instantly turned her into a little fan girl.

So Qin Hao took out the military management strategy he had written for Zhu Qiqi to study. This was the outline of military management that he had written when he inspected the Zuo Daying some time ago. It included management methods on how to improve the combat effectiveness of the troops, enhance the cohesion of the army, and the content of the daily training manual for soldiers. After repeated discussions with the officers and soldiers and combining it with the actual situation in the military camp, he revised the latest military management strategy.

Zhu Qiqi was fascinated by the scene. She had never thought that the prince had such talent in commanding the army. She was amazed and proud that she had chosen the prince as her husband.

When encountering something she didn't understand, Zhu Qiqi humbly asked for advice and Qin Hao patiently answered her questions.

Qin Hao saw that Zhu Qiqi was immersed in it and couldn't bear to disturb her, so he handled government affairs on the side.

Happy times are always short, and before they knew it, night had fallen. Zhu Qiqi bid farewell to the prince and wanted to return home. Qin Hao was afraid that something might happen to her, so he asked the guards to escort her back home.
