Chapter 54 The Emperor Isn't Worried, But the Eunuch Is
Zhu Gaoxu stopped speaking, but the Princess Consort of Han was very worried. Would the Emperor take away all the money they had earned this time?
Ji Gang came out.
He was holding an account book in his hand.
"This is the ledger, which shows the total amount of money earned this time," Ji Gang said.
Zhu Di took it from him, fearing that his rebellious son would snatch it away.
"I want to see how much money this kid has made," Zhu Di said.
He knew that each pill cost one hundred taels of silver, so what if he sold dozens or hundreds of them?
This time, Zhu Di dared not think any further.
He took the ledger and looked it over.
He wasn't optimistic, but when he took a look, he was immediately shocked.
"Ten thousand taels of silver?"
"OMG?"
"He actually earned over ten thousand taels of silver this time?!"
Zhu Di's eyes widened!
hiss!
The two Zhu brothers standing nearby both gasped.
My goodness, this is going to be a huge success!
They were all shocked.
This time, they really underestimated Zhu Gaoxu. None of them expected that Zhu Gaoxu would actually earn more than ten thousand taels of silver this time!
Such a scene would be hard for them to believe if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes.
"By the way, where's the silver?" Zhu Di asked.
"This..." Ji Gang looked troubled.
"What's wrong?" A sense of unease rose in Zhu Di's heart.
"Your Majesty, I have not found any silver," Ji Gang said cautiously.
"What?" Zhu Di was stunned. "Where's the silver?"
"I've searched the entire room, but I can't find any silver!" Ji Gang said with a wry smile.
"Is this any manners? Who gave you permission to rummage through my room?" Zhu Gaochi retorted angrily to Ji Gang, "Who do you think you are? Who gave you permission to rummage through my room?"
"I...I..." Ji Gang opened his mouth.
"Useless! You're truly useless!" Zhu Di pointed at Ji Gang and yelled, "We've found these account books, how could the silver not be there?"
"Tell me, did you pocket it?!"
Pfft!
Ji Gang was terrified. He immediately knelt down and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, even if you kill me, I wouldn't dare to embezzle it! I really can't find that ten thousand taels of silver! I really can't find it!"
He was utterly terrified; he was genuinely scared.
"Then where did the money go?"
Zhu Di's eyes darted around, and then, as if he had just thought of something, he suddenly looked at Zhu Gaoxu and asked, "Did you hide the silver?"
Zhu Gaoxu shrugged: "I don't know either."
"Besides, this is my money. I can put it wherever I want. Isn't Your Majesty being a bit too nosy?!"
"You...you..." Zhu Di was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at his opponent.
Oh my god, this is so much fun!
Look at this old man, he's so angry, it's fucking satisfying!
That was so satisfying! It really felt so good!
Who told you to keep making me angry?
"I want to see where all the money you've earned has gone."
Zhu Di gritted his teeth and went straight into the room.
Zhu Gaoxu didn't stay idle either; he found a chair and sat down.
He then looked at the eldest and the third brother.
Their expressions turned strange.
"Hey, second brother, tell me, where's the money you've earned?" Zhu Gaochi asked.
"Yes, yes, where is the money you earned?" Zhu Gaosui was also very curious.
In his opinion, he also really wanted to know where all the money his second son earned went.
The ledger is still there, so why is all the money gone?
"The Buddha said..."
Zhu Gaoxu kept everyone in suspense: "It cannot be said, it cannot be said."
Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui: ...
"Aaaaaah!"
Inside the room, Zhu Di's roaring voice could be heard.
"Where's the money? Where's that ten thousand taels of silver?!"
Zhu Gaoxu and others: ...
Zhu Gaoxu sipped his tea, and said unhurriedly, "Look how anxious he is!"
"This is clearly my money, why is he in such a hurry?"
Zhu Gaochi looked strange, and Zhu Gaosui dared not utter a sound.
After a long while, Zhu Di came out, his face grim.
Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui both saw this, and their hearts skipped a beat.
They could also tell that His Majesty the Emperor had definitely not found the silver.
"Father!"
Both of them were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, while Zhu Gaoxu remained seated, unmoved.
"Get up!" Zhu Di roared at Zhu Gaoxu.
"What are you yelling about?!" Zhu Gaoxu didn't tolerate his bad temper.
"This is my money, not yours!"
"What's your rush? What's your rush?!"
Zhu Di was stunned on the spot.
Zhu Gaochi launched a furious attack, saying, "You're like a eunuch worrying more than the emperor!"
Holy crap!?
No way, is the second one that strong?!
He actually dared to insult the old man?
They even cursed the old man, saying, "The emperor isn't worried, but the eunuch is."
For a moment, both the King of Han and the King of Zhao were speechless!
Such a scene would be unbelievable if you hadn't seen it with your own eyes!
"You...you..." Zhu Di was so angry that he trembled all over. He pointed at Zhu Gaoxu, but he couldn't utter a single word.
"puff!"
The next moment, Zhu Di spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted on the spot.
"Father!!"
Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Gaosui quickly helped Zhu Di up.
"Summon the imperial physician! Summon the imperial physician!!" Zhu Gaochi shouted.
At the same time, everyone realized what was happening and quickly carried Zhu Di to the Imperial Hospital.
Zhu Gaochi and the Princess of Han: ...
"No way?"
Zhu Gaoxu said, "I only cursed once, and you can't even stand that?"
Zhu Gaochi's face turned pale: "Second brother, you've gotten yourself into big trouble this time."
"I didn't do it on purpose," Zhu Gaoxu said with a strange expression.
However, seeing that no one was around, he whispered to Zhu Gaochi, "Actually, this is a good thing."
"What if the old man doesn't catch his breath, and the crown prince ascends the throne before his coffin..."
"Be careful what you say, second brother!"
"You can't just say things like that!"
Zhu Gaochi was startled.
"Come on, come with me and let's see if Father is alright." Zhu Gaochi pulled Zhu Gaoxu along.
"Can...can I not go?"
Zhu Gaosui, standing nearby, said, "No, the old man is so angry because of you. If you don't go, what will people say?"
Zhu Gaochi also spoke up: "Yes, yes, second brother, you can't just stand by and do nothing."
"Let's go to the palace together and see His Majesty together."
Zhu Gaoxu said, "Alright."
The three brothers also went to Fengtian Hall.
On the way, Zhu Gaochi pressed, "Father has searched for so long but couldn't find the money you earned. Where did it go?"
"Boss, you want one too?"
"No, no, no!" Zhu Gaochi quickly said, "Second brother, you've misunderstood me!"
Zhu Gaosui: "We're just curious, where did all the money you earned go?"
"I still maintain that what Buddha said cannot be spoken of."
They asked a pointless question.
…………
The Imperial Palace.
At this moment, in a palace, Zhu Di lay there, and the imperial physicians were taking his pulse.
When the Crown Prince and his entourage arrived, they were all very worried.
"Father, is he alright?" Zhu Gaochi asked.
