After seeing off Yuan Cong and his son, Yun Zheng immediately took Gao He to the Duke Jingguo's Mansion.
The first invitation he sent out personally must be given to Xu Shifu!
Xu Shifu is the third prince’s uncle!
As long as Xu Shifu is dealt with, why worry about other people not giving gifts?
"Your Highness, I have something to say. I don't know if I should say it or not."
On the way, Gao He hesitated for a long time and finally spoke.
"Just say it."
Yun Zheng smiled casually.
Gao He still gave a bitter smile and said sternly, "Your Highness, going to the Duke of Jingguo's mansion to deliver the invitation in person is a bit of a self-humiliation."
"I know they all look down on me."
...
...
Yun Zheng sighed pretentiously and said quietly, "I also know that they will definitely not attend the banquet, but I just have to do my best to be polite..."
Gao He choked slightly and stopped talking immediately.
Soon, the two arrived at the Duke Jingguo's Mansion.
At this time, it was almost dark.
"Sixth Prince?"
When they learned that Yun Zheng was coming, Xu Shifu's family was stunned.
What is the Sixth Prince doing here?
Are you here to make amends?
Even if you want to apologize, you should go to the Third Prince’s Mansion!
What are you doing here?
"Let's go and take a look!"
Although Xu Shifu couldn't figure it out, he still asked his family to go and greet them.
Even if they look down on Yun Zheng, Yun Zheng is still the Sixth Prince.
If they don't welcome the Sixth Prince when he comes, they would be showing contempt for the royal family!
"Welcome the Sixth Prince!"
Xu Shifu brought his family to the door and was forced to salute Yun Zheng.
He was an important official in the court, so he and his family did not have to kneel down and kowtow to Yun Zheng.
But even if he bowed, he still felt insulted.
"Duke Jingguo, there is no need to be so polite."
Yun Zheng smiled shyly and said straight to the point: "I'm here to deliver an invitation to Lord Jingguo."
"invitation?"
Xu Shifu was slightly stunned, "Have you set a date for your Highness and Shen Luoyan's wedding?"
Xu Shifu was talking, but he had no intention of inviting Yun Zheng in.
Yun Zheng didn't care and shook his head, saying, "It's not an invitation to a wedding, but an invitation to my new house. I plan to host a banquet for all the ministers in the court the day after tomorrow. Please do me the honor, Duke Jingguo."
As he spoke, Yun Zheng handed over the invitation again.
Xu Shifu took the invitation, took a symbolic look at it, and was about to close it when he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"This word..."
Xu Shifu opened the invitation again and frowned secretly.
Why does this handwriting look familiar?
This is what I’ve been waiting for!
Yun Zheng laughed secretly in his heart, but pretended to be embarrassed on his face, "I know my handwriting is not good, so I specially asked General Yuan Cong of the Left Tunwei to write the invitation."
Yuan Cong?
Xu Shifu's face turned green.
He said the handwriting looked so familiar!
It turns out it was written by Yuan Cong!
Yuan Cong is obviously in cahoots with them!
Now, he is going to write an invitation to Yun Zheng?
Once all the invitations are sent out, all the civil and military officials in the court will know that the Third Prince's people wrote the invitations for the Sixth Prince!
Isn't this a slap in the face of him and the third prince?
Xu Shifu was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He felt a burning pain on his face and secretly made up his mind to give Yuan Cong a good beating.
This traitorous bastard!
"Duke Jingguo, Duke Jingguo..."
Yun Zheng's voice rang in Xu Shifu's ears again.
Xu Shifu came back to his senses and said indifferently, "Your Highness, I am really sorry. I have been very busy with court affairs recently. I am afraid I will not be able to attend your housewarming party."
Xu Shifu's answer was completely within Gao He's expectations.
Gao He looked at Yun Zheng silently and thought to himself: Why bother?
Why come here when you know you're bringing humiliation upon yourself?
"It's okay, it's okay!"
Yun Zheng waved his hand, "It's fine as long as the gift arrives."
What the hell?
Xu Shifu was slightly stunned.
Is it enough if the gift arrives?
Could it be that he was here to blackmail me?
Seeing Xu Shifu's expression, Yun Zheng seemed to realize that he had said something wrong, and quickly changed his words: "I'm not asking you to give me a gift, I'm saying that it's enough to be polite..."
Is it enough to just be polite?
Xu Shifu and his family looked at Yun Zheng with amusement.
Isn't this just a disguised way of asking them to give gifts?
This coward dares to ask them to give him gifts?
You've become more capable, right?
"No, no..."
At this time, Yun Zheng waved his hands again and again, his face flushed as he said, "I just want to say that I... I just need to be polite, you... you guys can do whatever you want..."
Yun Zheng said this while deliberately looking timid.
Hearing Yun Zheng's words, Xu Shifu almost jumped up and cursed.
It's enough for him to be polite and let them do as they please?
How the hell can they be so casual?
The prince came in person to deliver the invitation. Isn’t that a great courtesy?
The princes have done so much, if they don't even show any expression, and Emperor Wen hears about it, it would mean that they don't know etiquette!
Xu Shifu cursed in his heart, but he managed a smile on his face: "Don't worry, Your Highness. Even if we can't be there the day after tomorrow, we will prepare a small gift and send it to Your Highness's residence to congratulate Your Highness on your new home."
"ah?"
Yun Zheng's eyes widened, and he waved his hands again and again, "I...I really don't want you to give me a gift."
"Your Highness, there is no need to explain. I understand."
Xu Shifu said with a fake smile: "Your Highness is so polite, so we must be polite!"
"this……"
Yun Zheng smiled embarrassedly, "Then we will leave first."
"Farewell, Your Highness!"
Xu Shifu shouted insincerely, but his heart was filled with mischief.
Looking at the invitation in his hand, he felt worse than if he had eaten a fly, and felt uncomfortable all over.
Unlike Xu Shifu, Yun Zheng is very happy now.
Now he and the third prince are irreconcilable!
Xu Shifu, as the uncle of the third prince, has given gifts, so how could others not give gifts?
hey-hey!
Another considerable income!
This is a gift for the prince, it can't be that bad, right?
Anyway, you don’t have to worry about the wine and food, it’s a sure win!
Well, next one!
Yun Zheng felt very happy and regardless of Gao He's strange look, he followed Gao He to Zhang Ge's home.
This time, Yun Zheng was more direct.
After explaining his purpose, he said directly to Zhang Huai: "I just came from the Duke of Jingguo's mansion. The Duke of Jingguo said that there are many things to do in the court. He can't show his courtesy, so he hopes that Lord Zhang..."
"I have a lot to do these past two days!"
Zhang Huai interrupted Yun Zheng and said, "I am not as polite as you say, Your Highness, please don't take it to heart."
"oh……"
Yun Zheng showed disappointment on his face, but he was ecstatic in his heart.
Who cares about you coming?
Just the gift is there!
Another one done!
Next, Yun Zheng took Gao He to several more houses in succession.
With Xu Shifu and Zhang Ge Lao taking the lead, everyone used the excuse that there were too many affairs at court to show that their gifts were present but their presence was not.
After visiting several houses, Gao He felt embarrassed for Yun Zheng, but Yun Zheng was very happy in his heart.
By the time they returned home, it was already very late.
Yun Zheng didn't even eat and insisted on going to the stable to take a look first.
"General Yuan Cong's horses do seem to be better looking."
Yun Zheng touched his chin and muttered to himself.
When Gao He heard this, his heart ached violently.
Is it just prettier?
This kind of endurance and explosive power is totally incomparable to that of ordinary horses!
Yun Zheng thought for a moment, and then said to Gao He, "These two horses will be given to you and Zhou Mi."
"Your Highness, you can't do that! It's too valuable!" Gao He said in fear and trepidation.
"precious?"
Yun Zheng pretended to be confused, "How valuable can a horse be?"
"These are not ordinary horses!" Gao He shook his head and said, "In my opinion, these two are top-grade war horses worth hundreds of gold!"
"Is it so expensive?"
Yun Zheng was horrified.
One tael of gold is equivalent to one hundred taels of silver.
Doesn't that mean that I directly cheated those two guys out of 20,000 taels of silver?
He knew that the horses of Yuan Cong and his son must not be cheap, but he did not expect them to be so expensive.
Am I trading my Santana for a Ferrari?
"It is indeed very valuable!"
Gao He nodded and said, "Besides, there is no demand for it even though it is priced!"
"That's okay!"
Yun Zheng thought for a moment, waved his hand and said, "I'm not a good rider anyway, and I don't need such a good horse, so I'll just give it to you!"
Gao He wanted to refuse again, but Yun Zheng said firmly: "It's settled!"
Gao He had no choice but to thank for the reward, and there was a hint of gratitude and respect in his eyes when he looked at Yun Zheng.
Yun Zheng smiled casually, but secretly said in his heart, I have invested a lot of money!
You two bastards, stop being traitors!
Otherwise, I will kill you no matter where you are!
