Ming Dynasty, the twelfth year of Yongle, August.

"My dad finally got the hang of it."

Even though Zhu Gaochi was no longer in charge of government affairs, he still kept an eye on many court affairs.

He took over all the messy affairs in the court for several months, and also watched Zhu Di being annoyed by the court officials for several months.

Here comes this month.

Zhu Di finally understood it and began to be able to control himself.

So, if you push yourself, you will learn everything.

"You speak as if Dad has never been involved. Rather, you are not as indispensable as you think."

Zhang Xin was speechless.

She felt that Zhu Gaochi in this life was many times more arrogant than in his previous life, and was completely different from the cautious fat man.

"I've hardly ever done anything. Whether I'm indispensable or not is different from whether my father is capable or not."

Zhu Gaochi was not convinced.

He just felt that his father was born with a good life. He married his mother, gave birth to him, and also married Zhang Xin.

Earn money by doing nothing.

It has been twelve years since he ascended the throne, and the territory has expanded with almost no wars.

Guizhou, the Korean Peninsula, and Mobei are all in our pocket.

At this time, Anding is almost the same as Qu Xian.

"By the way, Li Jinglong told us to quickly take over the other peninsula of Korea."

Zhang Xin listened to Zhu Gaochi's mumbling and quickly interjected.

She felt that her memory was spotty these days, so she spoke quickly while she could remember.

"Hmm? What's wrong? Did Wei Guan come here to talk about this? Wouldn't it be better to wait for him to come back and take it himself? There are many new people in the court now, and the old people are also very sensible. There are plenty of battles that can be fought by my cousin. If Dad wants to use my cousin, no one dares to say anything gossipy."

Zhu Gaochi knew that Wei Guan, the governor of the Eastern Depot, had come in the morning.

Because Japan is closest to Korea, the East Factory has long had people lurking in Korea to pick up Li Jinglong's silver transport ships.

After ten years of digging for silver from Japan, they said a while ago that the project was in the final stages and they were about to get the money back.

Zhu Di had already planned to let Li Jinglong take over all of Korea and then go to stabilize and garrison it.

"I can't go back. He said he found the parents of the silver he dug up before and took their baby away. We can't let their flesh and blood be separated!"

Zhang Xin covered her mouth and laughed.

These are the exact words of Li Jinglong that Wei Guan brought back.

He had almost dug up enough silver and wanted to withdraw, so he notified Zhang Xin.

Who knew that before leaving, several of the people he brought with him accidentally fell into a natural deep pit.

With the idea of ​​bringing the body back after taking it out, Li Jinglong sent people down to salvage the body.

If this goes on, it will be terrible!

A vein of minerals was discovered deep underground.

An expert studied the vein and said that the silver mine they had been digging over the years was at most a baby in the belly of one or two months old, and the vein they discovered now was the baby's mother and father.

In other words, the island where they have been stationed for so long may be a silver island, and it is very likely that there are gold mines.

So, Li Jinglong decided not to leave.

He also sent someone to quickly send a message back that for such a large silver mine, the nearest landing port in Korea must belong to the Ming Dynasty.

By then, more people can be transported from North Korea to mine, and silver transport ships can also travel back and forth in large numbers without any limit on size and number.

"real or fake?"

Zhu Gaochi's eyes lit up and he was extremely excited.

Money, the more the better!

"It can't be fake. Go talk to dad and get it done right away so you don't have to worry about it any more."

Zhang Xin urged.

"Okay, I'll go now."

Zhu Gaochi didn't notice Zhang Xin's expression and ran away excitedly.

Zhang Xin did not stand up to see Zhu Gaochi off. She just leaned back on the recliner and covered her face with a fan.

"Your Highness. Are you really not going to tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about other things that Lord Wei said?"

The sound of rolling up the sleeves was a little hoarse.

"No need. We should try our best to save the dying horse."

Zhang Xin sighed, her tone gloomy.

"Your Highness—"

Rolling up the sleeves or crying.

"Shhhhh, you're making waves, it's scary! Why don't you continue making peach tea?"

Zhang Xin didn't want to make people around her sad, so she changed the subject.

"Your Highness drank yesterday and the day before yesterday. I felt sleepy and couldn't even sleep well during my nap."

Wanxiu disagreed.

"Just take a small sip this time to try the taste."

Zhang Xin insisted.

Tea is a major commodity in the sea trade fleet, but they only sell the same few items, which is not new and the price cannot be raised.

You always have to try out a few special ones to seize the opportunity.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Unable to roll up her sleeves, she stood up and called a little palace maid to serve her while she went to the small compartment to make tea for Zhang Xin.

When Wan Xiu came out with a cup of fruit tea that smelled of peach, Zhang Xin immediately sat up and praised her.

"My sleeve-rolling tea is still the best!"

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Highness. I made three kinds of tea today. Would you like to try them?"

He rolled up his sleeves and made tea for a long time, then adjusted his state of mind and presented his treasure to Zhang Xin with a smile.

"Okay, let's try them one by one. If they work out well, we can make a lot of money."

Zhang Xin was also very interested. She tried cup after cup as she rolled up her sleeves and stuffed them into her hands.

"Well, this is, Oolong—"

"right!"

"Oolong tea goes really well with peach flavor. Make a note of this. This will work."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Is this a Dianhong?"

"Yes, Your Highness, it's a new tribute."

"Not very good. They smell good when paired together, but taste a bit sour. I'm giving this one away."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"The last cup is Maojian? No, that won't do. What's missing? Well, pick two jasmine flowers given by the flower shop and add them in."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

After the hurried footsteps, another hurried footsteps came back, bringing with it the scent of jasmine.

"This is the right one. Honey peach jasmine Maojian. Sai'er and Zhanji should like it. Roll up your sleeves and make another pot later. Add some rock sugar and put it in the ice pot to cool it down. When it's cool, send it to the grandson's yard."

"Send mother a pot of peach oolong, warm. And a plate of magnolia slices."

"Please send a few pots of orange tea over to the main hall, but please give it to the teachers first. Send some snacks as well."

"The Emperor, go ask the Empress whether she sent you the sweet soup. If she didn't, tell her about it."

Zhang Xin also took a sip or two, put down the teacup and explained the situation.

She drank warm tea herself, and Yao Niang would not allow her to drink anything raw or cold. It was the same with Xu.

Zhu Zhanyong, Zhu Zhanzang and Zhu Jiabao don't like drinking tea, so send them to the school and they will just have a few sips.

As for the eldest son and daughter-in-law, young people, it’s autumn and the air is dry, so drinking something cool is just right to relieve the dryness.

Finally, it was Zhu Di. What Zhu Di needed was Xu's love and care. She only needed to remind Xu that if Zhu Di had it, Zhu Gaochi would also have it. She didn't need to give it to her again.
