Chapter 632 Unwilling

Fu Wang naturally knew this, but he was still unwilling: "Before, we wanted to get Ye Xinyan under our hands through marriage, but something went wrong and nothing was found. Now that Jiang Yifan returned to the capital, he was away from the Duke's mansion very soon. Nearly. From my point of view, he intends to marry Ye Xinyan again. Jiang Yifan has a good relationship with Lao Liu, and if Lao Liu also participates in the battle for the throne in the future, who knows whether Anguo Guild will favor Lao Liu?"

Wang Xian thought about it and said, "King Yu? There is nothing to be afraid of, right? Although King Yu goes to court every day and can sit in the official department for some time, he is not very concerned after all. He is very busy in summoning the managers from various places and inquiring about the business. It is hard work, and I always ask about the cheese business that is sent to the capital."

But Liu Yu disagreed, his face was solemn, "The prince said before that when the princes are studying together, King Yu is the smartest. Even if he is scattered by nature and has no intention of competing for the throne, if the emperor really puts him in the court , and gradually pay more attention to it, naturally some people will lean on it and persuade King Yu to seize the throne and seek a piece of support."

"I'm also worried about this." Fu Wang Ning brow thought for a while, and then asked, "What's going on with Wang Qiao, have you inquired about it?"

Liu Yu quickly replied: "I've inquired about it, and he's really a character. Last year, shortly after he returned to Qinghe Village from the capital, he got engaged to the second daughter of Zhou Bingyi, the magistrate of Yuyuan County. I heard that Miss Zhou Bingyi and his wife loved her very much. , named Zhou Biyao, and the two families have already agreed that next year Zhou Bingyi will come back to the capital to report on his duties, and then he will come to Beijing with his wife and children, and marry his daughter and Wang Qiao by the way."

King Fu immediately put down the teacup in his hand, and asked in amazement: "No matter how unusual he is, he is just a craftsman. I probably know Zhou Bingyi, he is a thoughtful master. He didn't keep his daughter for a good relationship, how could he Marry your daughter to a craftsman?"

Wang Xian was also puzzled. While drinking tea, he listened to Liu Yu's continuation.

Liu Yu said: "That's why my subordinates say that Wang Qiao is a character. When he came to the capital last year, the guards of King Yu and Anguo Gong's mansion watched Wang Qiao and others closely, probably because Wang Qiao is indeed outstanding in craftsmanship. King Yu was afraid that he would be poached by another family, so he took strict care of him."

Wang Xian couldn't help but interjected: "No way? I arranged for officials from the Ministry of Industry to talk to Wang Qiao and others. Both Wang Qiao and those craftsmen said that the lathe and threaded fasteners were developed by a senior leader in the workshop. It's just that the old craftsman didn't want to travel long distances, so the workshop sent them over."

King Fu snorted and said, "Those are just excuses to deceive people. No matter where Wang Qiao and the others go, there are people from the sixth child by their side. Naturally, they must speak according to Jiang Yifan's instructions. You know, the sixth child was tossing around before. When so many things were produced, there were only Ye Xinyan, Wang Qiao, and some ordinary craftsmen in Qinghe Village, and there were no senior craftsmen at all."

I don't know if it's because of the scholar's arrogance complex, but Wang Xian doesn't like Wang Qiao as a craftsman. He was puzzled and said, "Wang Qiao is just a craftsman. Don't we have to work hard to win him over?"

Liu Yu nodded and said: "It's not necessary to work hard, but you can try it. Wang Qiao's father and Qi Younian have eight worship friends, and the relationship is very close. Now, he is Zhou Bingyi's son-in-law. If Wang Qiao really has the potential of a great craftsman, he After coming under the lord's command, many of our affairs will be easier to handle."

…………

Fu Wang's incident happened suddenly here, and he not only suffered losses, but also took risks, so he was naturally very annoyed.As for the prince, even if he was prepared, he only found out about such a thing two days ago, so he couldn't prevent it before it happened.

With the character of Prince Yi, he naturally couldn't accept such a result.

After the prince left the palace hall, he no longer controlled his emotions, and returned to the East Palace with an angry face.

He strode into the front hall of the daily office and kicked a chair over.The servant who came up to wait for the prince to change his clothes looked at him and complained in his heart. He immediately shrank aside and knelt down to admit his mistake.

It doesn't matter if you are wrong or right, the important thing is to kneel down early, so you don't have to go up to serve, so as not to suffer the prince's anger, if you are kicked by the prince in an important part, if there is something good or bad, who should you turn to?
The prince swept the teapots and cups on the tray by his side to the ground again. Hearing the crisp sound of porcelain shattering and looking at the shards of porcelain splashed all over the floor, he felt more at ease.

"Slave dog! What are you doing kneeling there blankly? Why don't you come up and wait for Gu to change his clothes!"

Seeing that the prince seemed to be less angry, the two servants quickly got up, hiding the broken porcelain on the ground, and went forward to change the prince's coat.

Tan Weixian, the head of the Prince's Mansion, had just welcomed Yu Shiqing, Minister of the Household Department, and Xing Bin, Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, when he heard the movement in the room, he hurriedly called his servants to come in and clean up the mess.

Tan Weixian looked at the broken porcelain pieces all over the floor, sighed secretly, and together with Yu Shiqing and Xing Bin greeted the prince, he opened his mouth and asked, "Has it been agreed to use wooden rails in the court?"

Two days ago, when Tan Weixian heard that the emperor had a trial document for the wooden track, he knew it was not good.

The consumption of rails is huge, and if wooden rails have been proven to be useful, they will definitely replace the rails.It is true that wood is not resistant to wind and rain, but if it is preserved with tung oil and other substances, its durability is not much different from that of rails, but its price is less than one-tenth of that of rails.

With such convenience, it was expected that most of the courtiers, if not all, would approve of the use of wooden rails.The reason why Tan Weixian assisted the prince in arranging manpower and opposed it in the court was just to take care of the prince's mood and act like a living doctor.

The prince angrily sat down on a nearby chair, waved his hand, let Yu Shiqing and Tan Weixian sit down, and said angrily: "Where is it agreed in the court? As soon as the cabinet department proposed to replace the rails with wooden rails, Gu immediately refuted it. After that, all the ministers in the court responded, and the rest of the people were watching."

Hearing this, Tan Weixian glanced at Yu Shiqing and Xing Bin.

Xing Bin is not qualified to go to the court, and he doesn't know what happened in the court. Seeing Tan Weixian looking over, he shook his head slightly, expressing that he didn't know.

Yu Shiqing, who was present at the time, couldn't help but smiled wryly, and said to the prince: "Your Highness has arranged for the ministers to object and why do you want to make such a move? It's not like you don't know that the emperor is willing to use wooden rails. Your Highness Why do you want to touch this bad head and offend the Holy One?"

The prince froze for a moment, a little embarrassed, he really couldn't hold back, and regretted it after he went down to court.

But it was not easy to admit his mistake in front of his subordinates, so he cursed: "It's all Han Yanhui, that old dog. There was a lot of opposition in the court. Seeing that the father was in a bad mood, he immediately lost the basis for persistence. Han Yanhui Yanhui came out in favor of it, and he just gave the emperor a reason to implement wooden tracks."

Tan Weixian was speechless for a moment, and His Highness admitted that he was the first bird.

After a while, Tan Weixian persuaded: "Your Highness, don't be too entangled. The Holy Majesty intends to push out the wooden track, so he is naturally prepared. Han Xiang is a minister of the imperial court, so he will naturally support the Holy Majesty's decision."

The prince said angrily: "Gu is the crown prince of the country, don't you deserve his support?"
