Chapter 278 Yang Shiqi
"After all, you are my child too."
Mrs. Lu sneered, but her tone immediately softened. Like any loving mother, she waved towards Zhu Yunhuan.
Zhu Yunhuan frowned, then took a step forward and walked towards the Crown Princess.
Although there was some hatred between him and Lu because of the murder of his mother and brother, in terms of seniority, Lu could indeed be considered his stepmother.
"As long as you turn back from your mistakes, I will still love you."
Mrs. Lu looked at Zhu Yunhuan and smiled. As she spoke, she raised her hand and touched his head: "You still look a bit like your father. You are so lovable."
"No need to be so hypocritical."
Zhu Yunhuan just looked at Lu coldly.
They know each other well.
If Mrs. Lu had acted like this earlier, he might have really been deceived by her.
Unfortunately, after Zhu Yunhuan's biological mother, Princess Jingyi, and Crown Prince Zhu Biao passed away one after another, the entire Eastern Palace fell into the hands of the Lu family.
Zhu Yunhuan, who had lost the protection of his parents, was no longer a threat in the eyes of Lu, and was given the title of Prince at an early stage.
The son of the crown prince became an outsider in the Eastern Palace.
"Haha, you can't say that."
Listening to Zhu Yunhuan's words, a hint of coldness flashed in Lu's eyes, and she smiled with her lips but not her eyes.
"Xinhua Bookstore, I haven't seen it for almost a year. Has it expanded to this extent?"
Zhu Ming raised his head and blocked the sun with his hands, looking at the huge characters in front of him, each with a gold border.
Originally a small house, it has now been expanded by buying two shops on both sides and combining them into a magnificent building.
It seems that there is no longer the embarrassment of the original shabby house.
The people coming and going inside were all dressed in bright and elegant clothes, and at first glance they were obviously young men from wealthy families.
"Your Highness, you are here!"
Zhu Ming and Liu Jin just stood at the door for a while, and the servant inside came over with a fawning look on his face, rubbing his hands with a smile.
"You recognize me?"
Zhu Ming took a quick look at the young man and spoke with some surprise.
He had never seen this boy before, so he must be a newcomer.
But this person actually recognized me, who hadn't been here for nearly half a year.
"His Highness Zhu Song has already given instructions that you will come."
The man responded respectfully, then turned around and made a gesture of invitation in front of Zhu Ming: "His Highness Zhu Song is waiting for you inside now."
Hearing that Zhu Song was waiting for him, Zhu Ming did not delay and followed the boy into the room.
The Xinhua Bookstore has completely changed its appearance compared to before, and now looks like a maze of bookshelves.
There were also several more kinds of books on the bookshelf, making Zhu Ming feel like he was in a library in his previous life.
If there weren't some servants leading the way, it would take Zhu Ming a while to find Zhu Song's room.
"Your Highness Zhu Song, the little prince is here."
After bringing Zhu Ming to the door of Zhu Song's room, the servant cautiously called into the room.
"I told you to come early this morning."
Hearing that Zhu Ming was coming, Zhu Song immediately raised his head and called Zhu Ming in.
"I haven't seen it for such a while, I'm not sure this is my bookstore."
Zhu Ming looked at him and joked with a smile.
As soon as I came back, I was busy fighting with the East Palace and haven't come here to take a look.
In just half a year, he has really changed a lot and is now completely different from before.
"Haha, I found a few talented authors, and the novels they wrote are the favorites of these rich young men."
Zhu Song laughed wildly a few times and spread out a row of books in front of Zhu Ming.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this."
Zhu Ming just glanced at the books and chuckled.
These books are nothing more than ghost stories and even contain pornographic pictures.
But he didn't come here for these things.
"That's right, that's right."
Zhu Song then remembered the purpose of Zhu Ming's coming here, and hurriedly put the book away.
"Please sit down. Someone will be here soon."
Zhu Song coughed awkwardly, and to cover it up, he poured another cup of tea for Zhu Ming.
"I know that you will definitely pay attention to these talents."
As he spoke, he took out Yang Shiqi's article and did not hesitate to praise him in front of Zhu Ming.
He knew from the beginning that if he introduced such a person to Zhu Ming, they would definitely not sit still.
That's why I asked someone to wait outside.
"how much longer?"
Zhu Ming drank Zhu Song's tea in one gulp and asked again.
"It should be almost done."
Hearing this, Zhu Song turned his head to look at the sky outside the window and said with a smile.
He had already sent someone to ask Yang Shiqi to come over, and now he must have arrived.
"Your Highness, are you looking for me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a gentle voice came from behind Zhu Ming.
Without looking back, just by listening to the voice, you can feel that this is a man with a strong scholarly air.
Zhu Ming turned around and looked at the man who spoke. He was seven feet tall and a little thin. Just as he had expected, he was wearing a long robe and had a scholarly look on his face.
"It's him. He's looking for you."
Zhu Song immediately invited the man in and pointed at Zhu Ming who was sitting on the side.
"This is Yang Shiqi."
"He is the famous grandson of the emperor, Zhu Ming."
Zhu Song was now between the two of them, introducing them to each other.
"Yang Shiqi, meet His Royal Highness the Grandson."
When the man heard Zhu Ming's name, his eyes lit up and he immediately bowed to him, his attitude becoming more respectful.
"I am Yang Shiqi, and I am now an editor in the Imperial Academy."
"Yang Hanlin, do you know why I'm looking for you?"
Zhu Ming stepped forward and helped Yang Shiqi up, then asked in return.
"know."
Yang Shiqi nodded affirmatively without thinking.
"It's better to say that I wrote this article just for today."
Zhu Ming raised his head and looked at Zhu Ming and Zhu Song: "Please forgive my speculation."
Everything that had happened until now was within his expectations.
"You knew I would introduce Zhu Ming to you?"
Zhu Song looked at Yang Shiqi in shock. Is this kid so scheming?
"Yes."
Yang Shiqi nodded affirmatively, and then bowed to Zhu Song: "Thank you, Your Highness, for introducing me."
Zhu Ming, on the other hand, was not surprised by what Yang Shiqi said.
The person in front of him is one of the three most prominent cabinet members in the entire Ming Dynasty.
Such calculations were not a difficult task for him.
"I have heard that the owner of Xinhua Bookstore is His Royal Highness Zhu Song, and His Royal Highness Zhu Song has a close personal relationship with His Royal Highness Zhu Ming."
Yang Shiqi looked at Zhu Song, still somewhat shocked, and began to explain to him what had happened.
"His Highness Zhu Ming is a popular figure around His Majesty, and he is also well-known for his talent."
