Chapter seventy-fifth father pit son
"Now?" When he heard that Zhu Biao was going to take him and Zhu Yunsheng to see Zhu Yuanzhang, Li Jie looked down at his wrinkled clothes. He had been in Wenhua Palace for three days and three nights, let alone taking a shower, and he didn't even have time to wash his face. He had to work as soon as he opened his eyes. Now his body was dirty and smelly, and his hair was almost messy.
"What you want is this. It's better to mess up your body, so that the effect will be better!" Zhu Biao smiled sly. Who said that honest people will not be scheming?
Li Jie immediately understood when he heard this. He had made him confused after settlement these days. The more embarrassed they were, the more Zhu Yuanzhang could see their hard work, and of course the greater the contribution he would have.
Unfortunately, Li Jie didn't know that Zhu Yuanzhang asked Zhu Biao to count the treasury in order to use this matter to hold Zhu Biao back. As a result, Li Jie was so good that he actually used a new algorithm to help Zhu Biao complete the task ahead of time. By then, Zhu Yuanzhang would be fine if he didn't punish him.
Zhu Biao asked them to meet Zhu Yuanzhang in such a mess, with the original intention of Zhu Yuanzhang to punish him lightly because of their hard work. Poor Li Jie and Zhu Yunsheng, they didn't know if they were sold by Zhu Biao.
A group of three people came to the East Warehouse where Zhu Yuanzhang was, but were stopped at the door because Zhu Yuanzhang had an order to prohibit Zhu Biao from entering the East Warehouse. Zhu Biao had expected this, so he handed over the general account of the counting of the treasury to the guards and sent it to the Warehouse.
Sure enough, Zhu Yuanzhang's order to let them in soon came from the warm room, which made Zhu Biao smile proudly, and then stepped into the warm room.
"See your father, I'm lucky to be a blessing from my son!" Zhu Biao entered the warm room and tidied up his clothes, then bowed to the authenticity. On the surface, he was celebrating, but in fact he was demonstrating.
"Nonsense! The treasury accounts are complicated, and you haven't thought about counting them clearly for a month. Now you use this fake account to fool me. Do you think I really don't dare to hit you?" Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang slapped the table and roared angrily after the case of the book.
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't believe that Zhu Biao could count the accounts of the treasury in just a few days, and even concluded that Zhu Biao compiled a fake account to fool himself. What he hated most in his life was that others deceived him. If this matter was verified, even Zhu Biao would be severely punished.
"Father! Even if my son dies, I will never dare to deceive you. This general account is true. It is the general account we have counted day and night these days. If you don't believe it, you can ask Yun Yu and Li Jie!" Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with confidence and said in a close manner.
"Li Jie, are you also colluding with the prince to fool me?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes immediately turned to Li Jie, his eyes full of murderous aura. He would definitely not be willing to kill Zhu Biao, but he would definitely be able to kill Li Jie.
However, before Li Jie could speak, Zhu Yunxi, who was eager to claim credit, answered first: "Grandpa Emperor calmed down. We did count this account. The reason why it was so fast is that we used the new algorithm taught to us by Li Bandu. If the court uses this new algorithm to keep accounts in the future, all the accounts will be clear at a glance, and it will be much easier to review!"
Zhu Yuanzhang would doubt Zhu Biao, but when he heard these words from his grandson, he calmed down suddenly. Especially when he saw Zhu Biao's confident expression, he even more doubted his judgment just now. So he hesitated for a moment before asking: "Be serious about this?"
"It's true that my grandson has followed Li Banju to learn new mathematics during this time, and has also independently managed the accounts of the glass workshop and the Qianliyan workshop. This time, my grandson has made great efforts to count the accounts. If you don't believe the emperor, look, my grandson hasn't had much rest for three days and three nights!" Zhu Yunxiu said first again.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he realized that Zhu Biao and the other two were wrinkled, their faces were oily, and their hair was even messy. It seemed that they hadn't washed for several days. Even Zhu Yun's eyes were covered with blood, and his whole body was a little thinner than before.
"Father, son minister, Yun Xi, and Li Jie led hundreds of officials to count the accounts day and night. It was finally easy to count them out. The officials involved are still lying in Wenhua Hall to rest. If the father doesn't believe it, you can send someone to summon them to ask questions!" Zhu Biao said straightening his back again.
Zhu Biao's confidence completely dispelled Zhu Yuanzhang's suspicion, which made him a little curious about the new algorithm mentioned by the three.
However, this curiosity was quickly dispersed by an unknown anger. After all, Zhu Yuanzhang intended to use the matter of checking the accounts to escape Zhu Biao. As a result, it was better now. Because of Li Jie's new algorithm, Zhu Biao had completed the accounts early. Then he would definitely advise himself not to pursue Hu Weiyong's rebellion.
Thinking of the above, Zhu Yuanzhang glared at Li Jie again and said with hatred: "Li Jie! You are really talented. You can actually help the prince solve such a big problem!"
"Your Majesty is a mistake, I am just..." Li Jie smiled and wanted to be humble, but when he was halfway through, he felt that the atmosphere was wrong. When he looked up secretly, he met Zhu Yuanzhang's angry eyes, which shocked him and quickly changed his words, "Actually, the prince is in charge of command, I have just done some small efforts!"
After Li Jie said that, he was sweating all over. Although he didn't know what the problem was between Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao, his intuition told him that it was definitely not the time to take credit, so he simply pushed all the credit on Zhu Biao. Anyway, Zhu Biao was hard on his back, so it was absolutely right to let him bear the blame!
"What a small achievement. I think you are still too modest!" Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he had no place to vent his anger. His knife-like eyes kept staring at Li Jie's neck, as if he was considering where to start.
"Father! Yun Hui and Li Jie are completely unaware of this matter. I ordered them to help. If the father wants to punish him, I will punish him!" Fortunately, Zhu Biao was still very kind. He took a step forward and blocked Li Jie behind him. This moved Li Jie so much that he almost cried. He recognized Zhu Biao, the old Taishan, that with such a father-in-law blocking the knife in front, he felt much more at ease!
Seeing that his son took all the blame on him, Zhu Yuanzhang was not angry. In fact, both Zhu Biao and Li Jie had made contributions and no mistakes. Especially Li Jie, he actually knew this new mathematics. If it was really promoted in the future, the various accounts of the court would be much clearer, and this contribution was even greater than the previous clairvoyance and hot air balloons.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang's anger disappeared, but when he saw Zhu Biao's firm eyes, he had a headache again. His son sometimes believed in his despicable reason, and as soon as he got stubborn, he couldn't even deal with him.
"Li Jie, you offer a new algorithm and there will be a reward in the future. Now you and Yun Ying go down first. I will talk to the prince alone!" In the end, Zhu Yuanzhang was silent for a moment, and finally said that it was inconvenient for Li Jie and Zhu Yun Ying to know what they were going to talk about.
"I'm leaving!" Li Jie felt like he was amnesty when he heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words. He didn't want to get involved in the affairs between Zhu Yuanzhang and his son, so after he finished speaking, he pulled Zhu Yunxie and walked out.
After leaving the hall gate, Zhu Yunxiu asked Li Jie later: "Li Bandu, we helped my father complete the task, why do you feel that Grandpa Emperor seems very unhappy?"
"How can I know this? But I can be sure that we were cheated by your father!" Li Jie said angrily when he mentioned Zhu Biao. Although Zhu Yuanzhang affirmed his contribution, the feeling of wandering around the gates of hell just now was not very good.
"Why did my father cheat us?" Zhu Yunxiu said in confusion.
"There are two kinds of people in this world that have no reason to cheat people. One is that the son cheats his father, and the other is that the father cheats his son. We are obviously the second one." Li Jie looked at the way of heaven speechlessly. The water in the palace was too deep, and he really wanted to go back to the countryside now.
"No, my father cheated me and my son, what's the point of cheating you?" Zhu Yunxiu pointed out the words in Li Jie's words.
