The little prince was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "This Lian prefect is well-informed, you might as well invite him to the teacher's study to see him." ”

Pomegranate immediately called the servants to withdraw the table, and Chen Musa motioned for the others to all withdraw, leaving only the little prince alone. Besides, I understand what the teacher meant: if there is no big event, Lian Daning will not rashly ask to see him at night.

"I heard that Master Lian is going to be promoted to the provincial envoy, did you come to see the senior brother because of this matter?" The three of them came out of the study, and Pomegranate asked Chen Musa for advice.

Chen Musa shook his head and said, "Lian Daning is not so impatient, with his qualifications and prestige, it is only a matter of one day earlier and one day later to be promoted to the rank of probationer. ”

"But I haven't heard anything about Suzhou Mansion lately, won't that prince rebel again?" asked Pomegranate quietly.

Chen Musa smiled and said, "Nonsense." Nowadays, those princes are similar to the prisoners in the prison, except that the residence is not called a prison, but the palace. ”

Besides, I listened carefully and interjected unintentionally, but I was actually a little uneasy. His father's anxious look flashed through his mind again.

The three of them entered a room where Chen Musa usually used to meditate, which was relatively simple and suitable for meditation.

Chen Musa sat down and whispered to the two most intimate juniors about the "past and present" he observed.

After the rebellion of King Zining in the Ming Dynasty, the court made three chapters of the law on the princes and the princes of the county. Brothers are not allowed to meet each other on a business, and even private correspondence is not allowed. Usually you have to stay in the city and go out of the city to play, that is not to even think about it.

Even if you go out of the city to pay respects to your ancestors, you must report to the imperial court in advance, and only after obtaining the approval of the Holy Emperor can you go back and forth on time and on time under the strict "escort" of the magistrate.

It's really cold from the heights!

These strict rules have been in place since the Yongle years, and they have become stricter from generation to generation. This move is Emperor Yongle's trick, and it is also a true portrayal of his mentality. Back then, it was he who sent troops from Yanjing to the capital and seize the world with a county.

Therefore, the later princes had to inherit this cruel "legacy". To be honest, for them, gold, silver, jewelry, and a bunch of eunuch beauties around them are the whole world.

Emperor Yongle knew very well in his heart that the princes had been acting all their lives, and everyone believed that they had a destiny in their bodies, and as long as the court relaxed a little, someone would take risks.

In history, the dynasties with the most rebellions were the Tang Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty was Li Shimin who corrupted the atmosphere, and the Ming Dynasty was Yongle.

Emperor Yongle can be regarded as a huge fan of Tang Taizong, not only admiring him, but also emulating him.

This is just like Zhu Yuanzhang worshipping Liu Bang, because both of them are the only sons of cloth in history, and Tang Taizong and Yongle are also the only emperors in history who have successfully ascended the throne as princes.

Because he was indoors, even the servants were not around, so Chen Musa dared to laugh casually, if these words were said outside, it would be equivalent to revealing the secret of heaven, and I was afraid that it would cause death.

Even so, what Chen Musa said still made He Pomegranate shudder.

Almost an hour later, the servant of the little prince came to inform Chen Musa that Lian Daning, the prefect of Suzhou, had left.

The three of them went out of the house, but they saw a row of officials in the courtyard holding the red lanterns of Suzhou Mansion, escorting Lian Daning's sedan chair out of Chen's mansion.

Chen Musa was full of suspicion and was quite unhappy. It's good that you practice Daning, you just don't see anyone when you come, and you don't even say hello when you leave! Because of the little prince's face, of course he can't say this.

However, someone did it for you. Chen Musa thought in his heart, and was immediately pouted by Pomegranate and said:

"What kind of immortal is Master Lian? This is Xue Dayu, passing through the door without entering. This is obviously for the little prince.

The little prince was a little embarrassed, hugged his fists and said: "It's really an extraordinary thing, Lord Lian came here today, and asked the teacher to pretend not to see it with his sister and brother." ”

"Yes, the little prince saw the fox fairy in the middle of the banquet. It's a good saga. Besides, he said with a smile that he had no feeling for Lian Daning's visit. Both sides are his teachers, and of course he can't offend any of them, so he makes fun of the little prince.

"Don't talk too much, go have a cup of tea. Chen Musa said as usual.

The little prince said: "Teacher, the disciple will ask for the guilt first, there is a bit of a urgency in the house, and I am going to leave." ”

"What? How are you going to go with this black light? No, you came to see me, and there was a mistake on the way, and I couldn't explain it to the grandfather and the emperor. Today is a big deal, and you have to live with me!" Chen Musa's tone was stiff, obviously angry.

Chen Musa himself didn't know why he suddenly became angry. It is said that it has been excluded for many years, and now he is not interested in the affairs of the imperial court at all, and it is better to carefully investigate the process of a grass from breaking through the ground to completely withering.

Today, however, he is angry with the person who should not be angry. The little prince is not only the future grandfather of the country, but also his favorite student, and he has never said a word to him.

The little prince was a little confused, he had never seen the teacher have such an attitude. In his heart, even if the sky falls, the teacher can do it without blinking, and the house is on fire, he can still sit and read peacefully.

The little prince couldn't think of anything that could make the teacher anxious, let alone anything that could make the teacher angry.

"Teacher Wan'an, the little prince may have been ordered by the grandfather of the country...... and said hurriedly.

He also had an idea, and suddenly came up with this excuse for the little prince.

Unexpectedly, he was really right.

The little prince took out a letter from his sleeve, which was indeed covered with the big seal of the Zhongshan Palace, and there was fire paint on the unopened seal.

The ancients also had a special set of methods for secrecy, the simplest being sealing.

At first, it is a mud seal, and when the mud is still soft, it is stamped with a seal, so that if the mud seal is opened, the seal will be destroyed.

Later, the times developed, and the sealing technology also improved, that is, sealing with fire paint, and the principle and practice were still the same. The official documents of the imperial court and the urgent military situation of the eight hundred miles are generally sealed like this.

The little prince held the letter to the teacher with both hands, and couldn't say a word, his expression was very grim.

"Hey, what's wrong with me. I drank too much today. Besides, you didn't stop me just now. Chen Musa turned his head and blamed the situation.

Besides, he said with a smile: "The teacher's fire is like a thunderbolt from the sky, and no one can stop it." ”

Chen Musa stuffed the letter back into the sleeve of the little prince, and then sighed: "I may be old and easily sentimental." I thought you could stay for a few days this time and stay with me......"

"Teacher, the disciple will definitely come back in a few days. The little prince could only speak at this time, his mood was a little agitated, and his voice was choked.

Pomegranate stepped forward to support the old master, and said with a smile: "Old man, isn't there a little junior brother to play chess with you? It's rare for senior brother to get back to business, hurry back home, don't delay. ”

"Senior sister, you are really good at complimenting people. The little prince smiled bitterly.

"Isn't that right, most princes and dukes, don't they listen to music all day long, drink fine wine, watch beautiful women dance, and finally wear golden jade clothes to be buried?!" Pomegranate concluded.

Everyone in the room laughed, although the pomegranate was talking about the life of Liu Bei's ancestor Zhongshan Jingwang, in fact, most of the princes had this life. The prince of the Ming Dynasty is not like this, and the prince is a little more relaxed, and it is only the difference between fifty steps and one hundred steps.

The little prince didn't dare to delay more, and seeing that the teacher's attitude had calmed down, he hurriedly said goodbye and left the Chen Mansion. The three of them were sent out of the street before returning.

When he arrived at the house, he also said goodbye to Chen Musa and wanted to go home.

Chen Musa glared: "You dare!"

Besides, he was so frightened that he hurriedly bowed down and said, "The teacher is angry, and the disciple doesn't dare to ......."

Chen Musa flicked the sleeves of his robe angrily, turned around and walked into his bedroom.

Besides, I was stunned there, not knowing what to do.

Pomegranate smiled: "Little junior brother, you can't open which pot to mention, it seems that I have to entertain you." ”

"There is labor. "Besides, I gave it up.

His heart hung in the air. It's bad now, I can't go back, I can't see the teacher, where will I sleep in a while?

Thinking about it, I suddenly smiled, don't you want to sleep in the open every day in a few months? Today is just one night, even if you sleep in the firewood room, it's nothing. I was worried about this rare warm-up opportunity.

"I'm worried that I don't have a place to sleep, it's okay. I'll ask Yahuanli to build you a bunk on the floor in my house. I have a black bear skin, so you don't get cold when you sleep in the snow. Pomegranate said half-seriously, half-jokingly.

"Thank you, the bearskin will lend me enough for one night. ”

While the sisters and brothers were talking and laughing, an old servant came over with a lantern and said, "Son, my lord asked me to invite you to the guest room to rest." ”

"No, he's in my house tonight. Pomegranate hurriedly said.

The old servant smiled too, and looked at the pomegranate as if it were his own child, and his face was full of tolerance and kindness. He was about to say something, when the nurse of the pomegranate came over and said to the old servant, "Uncle Park, we have a place there, let him live with us, the guest room is deserted, and children will not be afraid." He is such a small person, what is there to avoid suspicion. ”

Besides, it's a little embarrassing to be with the pomegranate, it was originally a joke, but the nurse made it true.

"No need, I'll just rest in the teacher's study for the night, and I want to see the teacher's collection." "Besides, he politely excused himself.

"That's fine, I'll go get you a bedding. The old servant smiled and walked away.

Pomegranate seemed to want to say something, swallowed the words back to her mouth several times, and suddenly turned around and walked towards her boudoir. Naturally, her nurse followed.

Besides, it was a stomach of questions, I wanted to ask the pomegranate well, but unfortunately there was a nurse beside him, he couldn't ask anything, and when he saw that she was far away, he had to return to Chen Musa's study.

After a while, the old servant came in, brought him a bed for the guest, laid him on a hardwood bed in the study, and then went out to bring a pot of tea, and then took his leave.

Besides, lying in bed, but tossing and turning and unable to sleep, today's events had nothing to do with him, but he was first frightened, and then encountered such occasions, but his heart was like something stirring, and the things he ate at night were pouring up.

He got up and drank herbal tea, and sat quietly for a while, but still couldn't calm down. He simply walked out and breathed in the slightly sweet air of the night.

The night is as cool as water, and a full moon hangs in the middle of the sky, pouring down the fog-like brilliance, reflecting the surrounding scenery like a dream.

He had no purpose in his heart, and he walked to the garden unconsciously, and saw all kinds of flowers blooming, and there was a strange beauty in the hazy moonlight.

"What's wrong, can't sleep?" a voice came.

Moreover, when he turned his head to look, he found that the pomegranate was already standing beside him, his face was like beautiful jade, his skin was like condensed fat, and his breath was like an orchid. I couldn't help but look crazy and overwhelmed all of a sudden.

"What do you see, I have flowers on my face?" said Pomegranate, a little shy, and a little annoyed.

"In the middle of the night, I am afraid that the flowers will sleep, so I burn red candles to shine on the begonias. Besides, the man groaned. This poem is also in line with his current mood.

"Su Shi's poems?" Pomegranate asked him deliberately.

She knew that she was compared to a begonia flower, and she was happy in her heart, but she also had some doubts, and she didn't know if she was deliberately coaxing her or teasing her.

Besides, Pomegranate always felt that he couldn't grasp it, and this kid was a little amazing. According to his development, it is only a matter of time before he enters the capital, or even the palace, and he may be able to help himself a lot in the future.

Besides, nodding, under such a beautiful night sky, it was like a beautiful dream, he didn't want to talk more, he was afraid that talking too much would break the dream.

Pomegranate seemed to feel the same way, and the two just stood side by side, neither looking at anything nor saying anything, just quietly feeling and absorbing all this.

"If life is only as first seen, what is the autumn wind and sad fan. ”

After a long time, a poem came to my heart, and I couldn't help blurting it out, which was also a mansheng chanting.

"Hmm, whose poem is this?"

Pomegranate was stunned, she didn't read much history, but poetry was rare and she hadn't read, this poem was definitely the first time she heard it.

Besides, I was shocked: bad thing, how can this be exposed again.

"Nobody's, I came up with it myself. ”

"It can't be Shen Bo's kind of dream of having sex with the ancients, right?" asked Pomegranate with a sneer.

She didn't believe that this was something she had uttered casually, and such a deep realm of poetry would not have been able to do it if she hadn't emotionally experienced several tosses from heaven and hell.

This has something to do with human talent, but it is not absolute.

In the Ming Dynasty, the champions of various disciplines had many talents, but they had few achievements in poetry and art, because their careers were too smooth, their lives were too superior, and they didn't know what they were worried about, so they could only do some hymns and poems, which were worthless in art.

"Perhaps. Besides, he smiled ambiguously.

"It's really wonderful that you cleaned up that Shen Bo that day, otherwise so many of us were deceived by him alone, even if we found out later, it would be a humiliation. I heard people say that you like miscellaneous studies, but I didn't expect that miscellaneous studies can also be learned. Pomegranate smiled and whispered.

"I'm sure you're complimenting me, like it's the first time. ”

Pomegranate couldn't help but giggle: "Well, I always speak straightforwardly, unlike someone, who always hides and tucks when he speaks, and I don't know what he's talking about?"

Pomegranate's laughter shattered and dispelled the dreams around her, so that Pomegranate seemed to be the only one left, but it also seemed to be more beautiful.

"Hey, do you want to know why the old man is so angry today?" Pomegranate smiled weirdly.
