Chapter 98 The Prince's Arrangements
As several men in black fled, the situation in the eastern suburbs hunting grounds was also reported to the East Palace.
When he learned that Zhu Song was almost killed, the prince's heart was filled with regret.
He originally did not expect that the people he sent could kill Zhu Song. After all, in addition to the Jianguo Temple and Yulin Army, Zhu Song also had a master named Feng Yulou standing guard.
Therefore, the prince only sent three masters, and the rest were ordinary killers, whose skills were at best a little better than ordinary people.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Song did not bring any bodyguards and only asked the second prince to accompany him. However, the second prince ran away when he saw the assassin.
If the prince had sent two more masters, or sent Ma Long, wouldn't Zhu Song have definitely died?
A country cannot live without a king for a day. If Zhu Song dies, won't he, the crown prince, be able to ascend the throne?
Thinking of this, the prince felt regretful and beat his chest crazily.
"Your Highness, there is no need to be upset. The assassins' knives sent by my subordinates were all smeared with poison. Since the emperor was injured, he must have been poisoned. Whether he can survive is another matter. Even if he is not dead, Yu Hao is.
Dead." Ma Long said from the side.
The prince's eyes lit up, he calmed down, and said quickly: "It's true that His Highness has been cultivating you. This time you have made great achievements, and I will reward you heavily. In addition, have Chen Ling'er made all the arrangements?"
Ma Long smiled coldly and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, Chen Ling'er is already in place..."
On the other side, Zhu Song had been brought back to the imperial camp by Feng Yulou. At this time, the entire camp was completely blocked by the imperial army, and there were even hundreds of Jianguo Temple guards outside the emperor's tent.
In the emperor's tent, Zhu Song fell into a coma. The two accompanying imperial doctors were very busy, helping Zhu Song treat his wounds. The second prince sat aside with dull eyes, not knowing what he was thinking. Feng Yulou, Duo Erbao, the deputy director of Jianguo Temple
The commander, Luo Zhengze, stood aside and was so anxious that he was sweating coldly.
If there was anything wrong with the emperor, all of them would have to be buried with him.
"How is the emperor's injury?" Feng Yulou finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked.
An imperial doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "Back to my father-in-law, the emperor's injury is not optimistic. Although there is no vital damage, the assassin's knife is poisonous and the emperor has fallen into a coma."
"Can the poison be cured?"
"This poison is not like my Daqian poison. I am not sure about it, so I can only do my best."
"Report!"
At this moment, a sergeant from the Jianguosi Temple hurried in and said, "I am reporting to all your lords that a woman was found outside the hunting ground claiming to be Chen Jian's daughter."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present trembled in their hearts. Feng Yulou even narrowed his eyes, with murderous intent in his eyes: "Bring him in!"
Soon, the tied-up Chen Ling'er was brought into the imperial tent by the Jianguo Temple sergeant. At this time, her face was covered with bruises, her body was covered with injuries, her clothes were in tatters, and she was in a miserable state.
"You are Chen Jian's daughter Chen Ling'er? I want to ask you, weren't you and Chen Jian rescued by someone when they ransacked their home that day? Why are you here? Why did your father Chen Jian assassinate His Majesty?" Deputy Commander of Jianguo Temple
Shi Luo Zheng asked coldly.
"My lord, the little girl is indeed Chen Jian's daughter Chen Ling'er. My father and I were indeed taken away by someone that day, but we never thought that he was not trying to save us. After he took us back, he first abused me and made me live every day.
For his enjoyment, he later captured my brother and used me and my brother to force my father to assassinate His Majesty." Chen Linger cried sadly as she spoke.
"Who is this 'him' you are talking about?" Feng Yulou narrowed his eyes.
"I don't know his identity. I only heard others call him Lord Yu." Chen Ling'er said.
"Yu Hao!" Everyone present widened their eyes. There were many people named Yu in Wudu City, but there was only one Lord Yu, and that was Yu Hao!
"It's Yu Hao, this thief, I'm going to kill him!" The second prince suddenly jumped up and shouted viciously.
"Second Prince, don't worry, ask clearly before speaking." Luo Zheng quickly comforted the Second Prince.
"Then why did you appear here?" Duo Erbao looked at Chen Ling'er and asked coldly. He had a good relationship with Yu Hao's bodyguards. He knew Yu Hao's character well and did not believe that Yu Hao had done this.
"I escaped when the guards were not paying attention. I overheard Lord Yu forcing my father to go to the hunting ground in the eastern suburbs to assassinate the emperor, so I wanted to come here to look for my father. Sir, have you seen my father?" Chen Ling'er asked quickly.
road.
Duo Erbao was about to say that Chen Jian was dead, but was stopped by Feng Yulou.
Feng Yulou thought for a while and said: "This matter is not trivial. Duoerbao, you first lead people to surround Haoyue Manor and capture Yu Haoyue. Lord Luo happens to be here and can interrogate him on the spot. In addition, bring all the imperial doctors with you."
Come, no matter what, we must cure His Majesty!"
…
Haoyue Manor.
Zhu An found Yu Hao and poured out all the bitterness in his heart.
Yu Hao was also surprised after learning about the emperor's arrangements for Cining Palace. Is the emperor so unwilling to see Zhu An's mother and son? Is it possible that Zhu An is not the emperor's biological child?
"Now the money is all gone, but my father is still lukewarm, what should I do?" Zhu An looked at Yu Hao with a sad face, eagerly hoping that Yu Hao could give him an idea.
"If you run out of money, you can make it again. I don't have a better way for now, but the emperor made an exception and went to Cining Palace. Is it possible that he is encouraging you?" Yu Hao thought for a while and said.
"Encourage me?" Zhu An frowned.
Since it was encouragement, then why didn't he say a word to his mother and concubine? Is it because I didn't show enough?
Seeing that Zhu An was deep in thought, Yu Hao did not interrupt him and continued to study his things with his head down.
Ever since he started doing business, Changsun Xiao and the prince had been suppressing him and even tried to kill him several times.
In this case, there is no need to be polite to them. Yu Hao plans to completely suppress Changsun Xiao's industry. Yu Hao will sell whatever they sell.
Paper is the Changsun family's biggest industry, and it is also the target of Yu Hao's recent research.
What is widely used in Daqian today is a kind of yellow straw paper. Not only is the texture rough, but its flexibility is also very poor. Even Yu Hao found it uncomfortable to use it to wipe his buttocks. Moreover, it is not cheap, with one foot costing 500 yuan.
money.
Yu Hao plans to launch a batch of low-priced bamboo paper, and then launch some medium tissue paper. These two types of paper have never appeared in Daqian. Both texture and flexibility are much better than straw paper. As soon as they are launched,
It will definitely bring good profits.
Although Haoyue Store has launched rice paper, rice paper costs ten taels of silver per foot after all, and those who can afford it are generally rich people.
Some poor scholars cannot even afford the most common straw paper on the market, let alone rice paper.
Yu Hao not only wants to use these two kinds of paper to capture the entire paper market, but also wants to make paper affordable for scholars all over the world.
Yu Hao received a bachelor's degree, a master's degree and a Ph.D. in his previous life. He was also a scholar who changed his destiny through reading. He knew that knowledge is the ladder of social development.
Although Yu Hao often talks about sour scholars, he is actually scolding those scoundrels from Chang Sunxiao who pride themselves on being noble and upright, and do things that harm others and benefit themselves in the name of scholars.
For real scholars, such as Lu Jijiu of the Imperial College, Yu Hao respected them from the bottom of his heart.
There are many poor scholars in Daqian who study hard and have no way of serving the country. Although Yu Hao can't help them, he can still do it by letting them use cheap paper.
Just as he was thinking about it, Hei Niu hurried into Yu Hao's room and shouted: "Sir, no... it's not good, the imperial guards have surrounded the manor!"
