When Zhu Houzhao arrived at the palace gate, he found out that Zhao Ce had packed him two baskets of fresh vegetables and fruits.

He temporarily threw the unhappy things on the road behind his head, stretched out the dragon's claws himself, and pulled the basket covered by thick oil paper.

“It’s all green vegetables…”

Zhu Houzhao muttered: "The ice and snow have not melted yet, and even in the palace, there are not many green vegetables to eat."

"Yong Xibo is still capable, so he won't be afraid next winter."

The green vegetables in the palace are all grown from hot spring farms.

Limited quantity.

Except for the emperor's family, even if others are rich, they don't eat as much as they want.

Now that Zhao Ce's greenhouse planting technology is available, this winter...

Zhu Houzhao grinned happily.

"When this winter, won't you make a big profit?"

Zhu Houzhao thought, and thought that the snow was good to get off this early this year.

This way he can make more money.

Liu Jin, who was standing beside him, looked at His Royal Highness, who was sentimental and distressed the people, suddenly said such words because he could make a lot of money this year.

He said "hehe" twice in his heart, feeling that he felt that his Highness had changed just now, which must be an illusion.

"These green vegetables are delivered to the imperial kitchen, and I will eat them tonight!"

Liu Jin nodded and arranged for someone to send him over.

Later, it was time for Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang to have dinner.

Zhu Houzhao also appeared in front of the two at the right time.

"Father, Queen Mother."

Zhu Houzhao gave the courtesy honestly.

Emperor Hongzhi thought that he had a bad attitude towards his son today because of political affairs.

He said kindly: "Sit and have a meal together."

Of course, Zhu Houzhao was not polite and sat down directly.

After the palace servants served the dishes, there were a few more green dishes on the table.

After seeing this, Emperor Hongzhi asked curiously: "Hot spring farm sent green vegetables over?"

Zhu Houzhao said proudly: "No."

"This is the green vegetable brought back by Erchen."

Emperor Hongzhi frowned slightly.

"Today, you asked you to go back to study and study, and you sneaked out to play again?"

Zhu Houzhao was choked.

He said carefully: "Nothing to play..."

Queen Zhang picked up a chopstick dish for the father and son.

"Eat first."

"Speak after eating."

Emperor Hongzhi didn't say anything more.

Zhu Houzhao also picked up the bowl with bitterness.

He wanted to come and ask for credit, but forgot about his father asking him to go back and ask the teacher in the morning.

So much so that as soon as he sat down, he didn't call himself and went out to play.

Emperor Hongzhi's appetite has not been very good in recent years.

Looking at the fresh green vegetables on the table tonight, I couldn't help but eat a few more chopsticks.

After putting down the chopsticks, I looked at Zhu Houzhao and only had a bowl of rice.

Emperor Hongzhi thought he was too strict just now and scared the child.

He asked helplessly: "Why are you eating so little today?"

Zhu Houzhao touched her stomach and was embarrassed to say that she had just eaten the cake that she hadn't had time to eat this afternoon before she came here.

He burped gently and said innocently: "Today I think about what my father said for a day, and I don't seem to have much appetite."

It doesn't matter to Queen Zhang.

"My mother asked someone to prepare some pastries for you, and you will eat some when you are hungry."

Zhu Houzhao thanked Queen Zhang with a smile.

After dinner, Emperor Hongzhi would handle political affairs under the candlelight as usual.

Zhu Houzhao didn't leave, and sat next to him.

Seeing his son looking at his face as if he had something to say, Emperor Hongzhi was a little puzzled.

This son is not a matter of slack in his studies.

Could it be that I am really scared today?

"If you have something to say, why are you doing so hesitant?"

Zhu Houzhao then said: "Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh food."

"Father, have you heard this?"

Emperor Hongzhi looked at him speechlessly.

"Of course I've heard it."

Zhu Houzhao smiled and came over.

"Father, I think clearly why you kept Liu Shangshu who resigned voluntarily."

Emperor Hongzhi was quite interested in putting down the memorial in his hand.

"Oh? Then tell me."

Zhu Houzhao said: "Actually, that's what I said just now."

"Father, you are the chef who is in charge of the pot and spoon."

Emperor Hongzhi: "..."

As an emperor, how could he become a chef?

"you……"

Zhu Houzhao quickly interrupted him: "Father, please listen to me."

"You are a chef, and it is up to you to decide how to add seasonings to cook."

“It’s not up to the seasoning to decide for yourself!”

Emperor Hongzhi was about to scold him, but after hearing these two sentences, he couldn't help swallowing the words he had.

"Continue talking."

Zhu Houzhao nodded and said, "So if Liu Shangshu wants to leave and stay, it is up to the emperor who has the final say."

"It's not just Shangshu Liu, but also for other officials."

"As the saying goes, thunder, rain and dew are all the kindness of the Lord."

"Although the Father asked them to stay, it was a gift."

"It is naturally a gift for the Father to ask them to leave."

After Zhu Houzhao finished speaking, he found that the hall was very quiet.

He glanced at his father.

Emperor Hongzhi was looking at his son in shock.

He said in surprise: "Have you figured it out?"

In the morning, I was still stubborn and said that this was wrong. I suddenly thought it through, but I could see it so thoroughly?

When Zhu Houzhao saw his reaction, she said proudly: "Natural."

"Not only did I figured out this, I also figured out another problem."

"That is, the father left Liu Shangshu because he was of great use to our country's dynasty."

Emperor Hongzhi returned to his usual calmness and nodded and said, "Not bad."

"You can see this and prove that you have completely figured it out."
