Chapter 54 Xuanwu Order(1/2)
Hongbin Tower.
Tianzi No. 1 private room.
Faced with Zhu Biao's frankness, Hu Fei picked up the wine glass, respectfully greeted Zhu Biao, and raised his head and drank it all.
Zhu Biao did not refuse, but also picked up the wine glass, imitated Hu Fei's appearance, and drank all the wine in the glass.
"If a person like you doesn't enter the officialdom, it will not only be a pity, but it will also be a loss to my Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Biao looked at Hu Fei and once again expressed his feelings.
"His Highness's intention has made Hu Fei panic, but he can only understand it temporarily. I have never thought about this matter and need to think about it carefully. If it is not sincere, wouldn't it be disappointing to your highness's respect?"
Hu Fei bowed and said gratefully.
"Okay, I will not force you. You can think about it carefully. I am waiting for you. If you said just now, you will always count it."
Zhu Biao nodded and said affirmatively.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Hu Fei bowed and thanked him again.
Then, the two changed their topics. It was not until after three rounds of drinking that Zhu Biao stood up and signaled to leave.
Hu Fei stood up and accompanied Zhu Biao downstairs and delivered them to the door.
As soon as he sent Zhu Biao out, Mu Ping, who was standing in the corner, walked quickly to Hu Fei's side.
"Young Master, Xiao An has already found out the location of the inspection and is near the palace gate."
Mu Ping leaned closer to Hu Fei and lowered his voice and said.
After hearing Mu Ping's words, Hu Fei narrowed his eyes, and suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. He whispered a few words to Mu Ping, and then quickly chased him out of the door.
"Hold on."
While chasing out the door, Hu Fei shouted at Zhu Biao who was about to board the bus.
Zhu Biao stopped hearing this, turned around and looked at Hu Fei.
"Your Highness, you have a great conversation with Your Highness in the building just now, and you are still not satisfied. There is still a long way to go to the palace. I wonder if I can take the same carriage with Your Highness to the palace gate, so that I can listen to your Highness’ advice again?"
Hu Fei quickly walked to Zhu Biao and asked respectfully.
After hearing Hu Fei's words, Zhu Biao was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but smile.
"Since that's the case, then get in the car."
Zhu Biao smiled and pointed to the carriage behind him and said slowly.
"Your Highness..."
When Xiao Qi heard this, he wanted to speak but stopped.
No one has ever been on the prince's carriage, and no one dares to take it.
Hu Fei is the first one.
Zhu Biao waved his hand, interrupted Xiao Qi, and got on the carriage first.
Hu Fei did not hesitate, looked at Xiao Qi proudly, and then got on the carriage. The moment he entered the carriage, he glanced at the dark alley opposite Hongbin Tower, and a sneer flashed away.
As the carriage was about to leave, Xiao Qi, who was guarding the carriage, also took a quiet look at the dark alley.
...
On the carriage.
Hu Fei and Zhu Biao sat opposite each other, but the atmosphere suddenly became a little different from that in the restaurant.
Because both of them seemed to find that they suddenly didn't know what to talk about, especially Zhu Biao. This was the first time that outsiders had boarded their own carriage and sat with them.
"Your Highness's carriage is indeed different. This brocade curtain alone is valuable. This is something that only exists in the palace, right?"
In order to break the embarrassment, Hu Fei stroked the curtains at the car window and said with emotion.
His actions couldn't help but make Zhu Biao laugh, as if he didn't expect Hu Fei to have such an interesting side.
"By the way, I forgot to ask you just now. Seeing that Hongbin Tower's business seems to be the most prosperous in the capital, I have never stopped waiting in line. But as far as I know, as long as I enter Hongbin Tower, each person can eat and drink as much as possible. Then, so many passenger flows every day, where did you get the income?"
Zhu Biao hesitated for a moment and suddenly asked curiously.
"Your Highness, it's actually very simple. Hongbin Building is different from other restaurants. The prices of other restaurants are not cheap because they rely on their reputation and the prices of the cuisine. They mainly earn money from a wave of customers. In the long run, they basically rely on old customers and names to obtain profits."
"Although my Hongbin House is cheap, I can eat and drink as long as I pay the money, so that I can attract the old customers in other restaurants. In addition, the dishes in Hongbin House are unique in the world, which can attract more people."
"As long as there are many people, even if the price is not high, you can make a profit. This is called small profits but quick turnover. It seems that there is not much money, but it cannot withstand the amount. Once the volume is increased, it will be more than twice as much as other restaurants in a month."
Hu Fei smiled, but did not hide his own feelings, and explained patiently to Zhu Biao.
In fact, Hongbinlou’s success is nothing more than two points, gimmicks and novelty.
After listening to Hu Fei’s story, Zhu Biao was stunned. He seemed to understand, but he didn’t understand. He just thought Hu Fei was very powerful from the bottom of his heart.
Then, the two of them talked about self-satisfaction and the little noodle in the capital. After talking about these things, Hu Fei immediately became furious, as if he had changed someone else, and the atmosphere in the car gradually became warmer.
Not long after, the carriage had arrived outside the palace gate.
"Your Highness, I can only send it here. If you want to go in, even if you are not stopped, you may have to mess up the rules."
Hu Fei got out of the car and bowed to Zhu Biao who was looking at him, saying.
"If you want to enter, no one can stop you. From today on, you can enter and exit the gate of the East Palace at will."
Zhu Biao looked at Hu Fei and said seriously. After that, he lowered his head and took out a token from his arms and handed it to Hu Fei.
Hu Fei looked down and found that the token was made of pure gold. It was engraved with the word "Xuan" while the word "Wu" while carving dragons and phoenixes. Just looking at the style, I felt very majestic.
"With this Xuanwu Order, no one will stop you from entering and leaving the Eastern Palace in the future. When you see Lingru meets this palace, you may be able to keep you safe at a critical moment."
Zhu Biao looked at Hu Fei and said seriously.
Before Hu Fei could speak, he heard the three words "Xuanwu Order", Xiao Qi and other guards on the side widened their eyes, as if they couldn't believe that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would actually give this order to Hu Fei.
Xuanwu Order is an exclusive token for the Eastern Palace. Those who hold this order can represent the prince Zhu Biao himself!
"Thank you, Your Highness, for being flattered. Don't worry, I will think carefully and do my best to live up to Your Highness's high hopes."
Hu Fei bowed respectfully and said slowly.
Zhu Biao nodded, stopped talking, put down the brocade curtain, continued to set off, and walked into the palace.
Hu Fei stood in front of the palace gate, looking at the carriage that was moving further and further away, his face gradually became solemn.
"It's not my intention to lie to you. I just hope to find a faster and more stable path, and I have no malicious intentions to you."
"You are indeed a person worthy of entrusting the Ming Dynasty, but it's a pity..."
Hu Fei looked in the direction of the carriage and said to himself. When he said this, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
According to historical records, Zhu Bianben was the next king whom Zhu Yuanzhang and even the entire government and the country had the highest expectations. Unfortunately, he died young due to illness and eventually failed to sit on the chair.
Some things are beyond human power, but God will do so.
In the Chen Ning case, Hu Fei sent Mu Ping to Suzhou Prefecture to investigate and mobilize local people to go to Beijing to file a lawsuit. At that time, he asked Mu Ping to secretly leave the capital, without attracting anyone's attention.
But he also instructed Mu Ping that he deliberately left a trace of vague traces when he arrived in Suzhou Prefecture, so that he could find it, and it didn't matter who found it.
Because no matter who found it, it would not pose a threat to him, because he did something that anyone would think is right.
And he concluded that one of these people would be Zhu Biao.
Because he knew that Zhu Biao, like Zhu Yuanzhang, loved talents very much and would come to him one day. With Zhu Biao, his life would be guaranteed.
It turns out that he bet right.
At this moment, Mu Ping appeared behind Hu Fei at some point.
"Young master, I've caught it."
Mu Ping glanced at Hu Fei who stopped and pondered, and whispered.
"Walk."
Hu Fei nodded, withdrew his thoughts and turned around and left.
Inside the palace.
In the carriage.
"This life is free and unintentional, and everything has flowed from ancient times."
"Good poetry, good state."
Zhu Biao silently recited the poem that Hu Fei said accidentally in Hongbin Building, nodded frequently, with a smile of praise on the corner of his mouth.
"Go to the Palace of Harmony."
Immediately afterwards, Zhu Biao said in a deep voice to the outside of the car.
Xiao Qi agreed, turned around, and headed towards the Yangxin Palace.
"Your Highness, there have been people following you on the road just now, but after half of your followers, they suddenly disappeared."
