I just instinctively felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, so I just sat there obediently for a while.

In such a depressing atmosphere, Chu Ze silently peeled an orange for himself, and then asked tentatively.

"How about we just talk about my matter?"

As soon as he said these words, the awkward atmosphere of silence was finally broken at this moment.

After Zhu Yuanzhang saw his eldest grandson put on the seat, he coughed slightly, then looked at Chu Ze extremely seriously and said.

"That's right, your problem is the big deal right now. Uh, what are you going to do?"

Although the argument just now that shouldn't have happened made the atmosphere a bit awkward.

But after the embarrassment was over, both Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Xiongying felt a lot more relaxed.

Originally, Zhu Xiongying's matter was like a huge boulder, always weighing on their hearts, making people feel extra irritable inexplicably.

But after hearing what Chu Ze said today, Lao Zhu and the others noticed that they had been worrying in the wrong direction.

In other words, they were just worrying blindly during this period of time.

After the boulder was removed, everyone relaxed.

Chu Ze also took advantage of the time to relieve the embarrassment and mentioned the things he had prepared previously to Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao.

That's the idea of ​​designating a city as an experimental site.

And when this idea was spoken by Chu Ze, Lao Zhu's first reaction was beyond Chu Ze's expectation.

"You want our son to be a city lord, and then try to manage a city according to your method. Then, let us see the effect of your management method, and finally consider whether to implement it nationwide? Then what do you do?

Why don’t you manage it yourself?”

"."

Why don't I go by myself?

It can be said that Lao Zhu's question was directly asked by Chu Ze.

If he can go by himself, can he not want to go?

In Yingtian Mansion, he had to be under Lao Zhu's nose all day long. Although Chu Ze didn't show it, he was actually a little worried in his heart.

I was afraid that he would suddenly have a brain twitch and plan to slap himself or something.

And in Yingtian Mansion, at least Zhu Biao and Queen Ma are still there to protect them.

What if he left Yingtian Mansion and disappeared from Lao Zhu's sight?

If there is no news another day, the person will be arrested and sent to jail.

Chu Ze was quite aware of this, as long as he left Yingtian Mansion and out of Lao Zhu's sight.

In other words, he showed such thoughts.

Then everything may not be what it is now.

Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang's inquiry probably had a probing meaning.

"Your Majesty, is it more comfortable to live in a small city or in the capital of a country?"

"You're not talking nonsense. Of course it's the capital of the country. Even if it means prosperity, what do you mean?"

"The meaning is obvious. I live well in the capital now. I have a big house, maids and guards. I can even go to the palace to find a meal if I have nothing to do. If it doesn't work, I can go to Yongle for a meal."

"Why should I go to a small city to be the city lord? I have the skills. Wouldn't it be better for me to fight cocks, walk dogs, and visit brothels in the imperial city?"

"."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Chu Ze with sharp eyes, as if he wanted to see if what he said was true.

Facing Lao Zhu's scrutinizing gaze, Chu Ze took a sip of tea in silence and calmly.

There was no trace of panic in his eyes.

He had no intention of leaving Yingtian Mansion, so he was not afraid of Lao Zhu deceiving him.

"I still want to fight cocks, walk dogs, and go to brothels. Hmph, don't forget that you are the adopted son of the queen, and you can be considered half a member of the royal family. If you dare to go to brothels, and dare to go out and ruin the reputation of the royal family, you will see if we will deal with you!"

"

"When the time comes, if you make a mistake first, we will beat you. That is reasonable and well-founded! Your godmother will not stop you."

"If you want to go to a cockfight, walk a dog, or go to a brothel, just go and give it a try, and we'll see if we can still wave the soles of our shoes."

It seemed that after confirming that Chu Ze had no intention of leaving Yingtian Mansion.

Lao Zhu also followed his words very naturally and changed the subject of the conversation, directly from the initial temptation to a verbal threat.

And when he threatened, he didn't forget to look at Chu Ze with sinister pity.

It is true that he is not good at corporally punishing Chu Ze, but if he had made a mistake first, wouldn't he have a reason to whip him?

Lao Zhu even thought about it, and he would not go to jail.

Isn't Chu Ze his sister's adopted son?

After all, he was also the adopted son of Zhu Yuanzhang, so he treated Chu Ze as his own son, pressing him on a stool and then whipping him with the sole of his shoe. This is very reasonable, right?

When the time comes for me to beat my son, who dares to say it’s not okay?

When Chu Ze heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, the hairs all over his body suddenly stood up.

This...are you not trying to lose face?

"Father, please stop joking. How can such a big child slap him with the sole of his shoe?"

"I think what Chu Ze said is not unreasonable. In any case, the management methods after hundreds of years should be improved step by step from our time."

"If we can really find a city to use as an experiment to try out the management methods of later generations and their effects in our era, this would be a good thing."

"We can definitely extract the essence and discard the dross through observation."

"Therefore, Erchen feels that Chu Ze's proposal is worth implementing. The key is that it is not difficult to implement."

At the critical moment, it still depends on Zhu Biao.

As soon as he opened his mouth, he quickly brought the topic back to the normal direction.
