Master Wei San was very upset, he knew that he must have offended Xiao Yuan.
Sure enough, Xiao Yuan looked at him coldly, and then suddenly laughed: "From what you said, it seems that you think I can't beat Xiao Heng, so you are afraid. You are afraid that I will make Xiao Heng angry, let Xiao Heng deal with me, and then you will suffer, right?"
When Xiao Yuan spoke, his tone was not so gentle. Master Wei felt frightened and felt terrible. He looked at Xiao Yuan in horror and explained in a panic, "No, Your Highness, I would never dare to have such thoughts. I... I just think that there is no need to confront the court so early. It's not that Xiao Heng is powerful, but that the court behind Xiao Heng is powerful..."
No matter how powerful they are, they cannot compete with the imperial court. Now that the imperial court knows of their existence, it will certainly not continue to tolerate them.
That's why Third Master Wei was so angry and spoke without thinking just now.
But now, he was really at his wits' end.
Xiao Yuan was still cold: "Get out!"
Third Master Wei was speaking without restraint just now, but now he dared not say a word. At this moment, he thought of those disobedient people in the family, and those people in the Chi family who had been against Xiao Yuan in the past. All of them disappeared silently.
Some of them were dealt with by Master Wei San himself, so Master Wei San knew their fate.
Knowing this, Master Wei San felt himself sweating all over. He couldn't help wanting to vomit and quickly retreated before he lost control even more.
Even after leaving the house, Mr. Wei Sanye still couldn't control his hands. His whole body was shaking, especially his legs, which were shaking uncontrollably.
Uncle Qiu came out right after him. Seeing how scared he was, he felt a little emotional for a moment. He had a good relationship with the Wei family. The two families were related by marriage and were old friends. Uncle Wei San always told Uncle Qiu about everything. Although Uncle Wei San was not very smart, Uncle Qiu treated him as his own brother.
He stepped forward and patted Third Master Wei on the back a few times. Seeing that Third Master Wei felt a little better, Uncle Qiu sighed softly, "I've told you tens of thousands of times to think carefully before you speak. Why can't you change your outspoken habit?!"
Uncle Wei San didn't care about being scolded now. He just trembled his lips and asked Uncle Qiu: "Did I make him angry? Will he attack me?"
Seeing that he was so scared that he couldn't even hold the cup, Uncle Qiu held his hand and said, "Okay, don't scare yourself for now. It may not be that serious."
Mr. Wei Sanye couldn't stay calm, and he fell ill as soon as he returned home.
The Wei family invited many famous doctors, but Mr. Wei Sanye's condition did not improve. In a short period of time, he became so sick that he could not get out of bed.
The news reached Uncle Qiu, who came to Xiao Yuan and mentioned the matter.
Xiao Yuan sneered. He knew the reason why Mr. Qiu brought up this matter. He raised his eyes coldly and said, "Don't worry. If we really wanted to deal with him, he would have died tens of thousands of times. He is as cowardly as a mouse!"
Uncle Qiu breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Xiao Yuan doesn't go so crazy as to really want to take Mr. Wei Sanye's life, it will be fine.
He smiled along and said some irrelevant things to Xiao Yuan.
However, Xiao Yuan told Uncle Qiu: "The imperial court is going to build a maritime customs office."
Uncle Qiu was stunned.
We just talked about building a navy, how come the matter of the Maritime Customs has suddenly been decided
He shuddered and said with some embarrassment: "This is too fast, it's clearly coming for us, we can't just sit there and wait for death."
The imperial court is indeed scary, but if it is about to destroy their jobs, that is not acceptable.
Uncle Qiu said with some desperation: "If it really doesn't work, just do it the same as before. It's not the first time anyway!"
Imperial envoys came to Fujian in waves. Those who were obedient were able to go back, while those who were disobedient even died in Fujian.
He wants to see who can build the Maritime Customs here!
Xiao Yuan finally looked down at Uncle Qiu, as if he felt that he finally had some backbone, and said sarcastically: "I thought you were all waiting for others to break your rice bowl, but you are still hiding like turtles!"
This is a very impolite statement.
But Uncle Qiu was different from Uncle Wei San. He was extremely mature and steady, so he was not affected at all. He just smiled respectfully and said, "Look at what you said. As long as you are not afraid, we, the people below, will naturally go through fire and water for you!"
He knew the temperament of people like Xiao Yuan, who believed that those who opposed me would perish and those who obeyed me would prosper, and he could not bear to hear any bad words.
As expected, Xiao Yuan stopped mocking and said calmly, "It's almost time, let's go meet His Royal Highness Prince Min."
As soon as the Sixth Prince arrived in Zhangzhou, he was warmly welcomed.
The local officials and gentry went out of the city thirty miles to welcome them, and had already prepared a flower carriage to welcome the prince and princess into the city.
The prefect of Zhangzhou even gave up his office and invited the prince to stay there temporarily.
Many ministers visited King Min along the way. He knew very well that these officials would not do anything without benefits, so when King Min saw the enthusiasm of the Zhangzhou prefect, he just smiled indifferently.
After he had stayed there for two days, the prefect of Zhangzhou came with the blueprints of the palace and discussed with him the location for building the palace.
The royal palace should naturally be located in a prosperous place.
King Min picked a location and asked the prefect of Zhangzhou, "How much silver will it cost to build the palace?"
The prefect of Zhangzhou smiled and shook his head, saying, "I was just about to report to you, Your Highness, that some people want to share your worries, but they can't find a way, so they came to me and asked for help. They want to help Your Highness build a palace."
King Min was a little surprised. He had already prepared the silver for building the palace. Of course, the amount was huge and he felt very painful to take it. However, as a vassal king, his palace should naturally be in line with his status. This was also where he would live for a long time, so any amount of money was justified, so he had already made preparations.
But now the prefect of Zhangzhou suddenly said that someone wanted to help him build it.
He narrowed his eyes: "What do you mean?"
The prefect of Zhangzhou laughed and said, "Your Highness, these people are all local nobles. They don't know what gifts to welcome Your Highness to express their feelings. Therefore, they have covered the cost of building the palace."
All covered!
This is hundreds of thousands of taels of silver!
King Min was shocked once again. He did not expect these people to be so generous and give him a palace.
He didn't agree.
Discuss with Hong Changshi privately.
Hong Changshi said, "Your Highness will be the king here in the future, so it is only natural for them to honor you."
