Chapter 22 Jingyang Palace
However, somewhat unexpectedly, Wang Cairen did not receive any punishment for this, but heard that Zheng Guifei wanted to punish her, but was stopped by Wanli, until Wang Cairen stretched out his hand outside Ciqing Palace and killed a few palace people with long tongues, he was punished by grounding.
However, after this, although the rumors about Zhu Youxiao in the palace have not subsided, they have been greatly contained, and no one dares to say it boldly in public!
After this incident, Zhu Youxiao got a lot closer to Wang Cairen, and the flat ruler moved frequently, which made Wang Cairen, who was grounded, very happy, and felt that his hard work was not in vain.
The Forbidden City, the harem, the residence of Concubine Zheng.
"Wang, a little talent, I see how long you can protect that little bastard!" Looking at the sky in the distance, Concubine Zheng Guifei spit out this sentence subtly, looking at her gritted teeth, she seemed to hate this Wang family very much.
"Liu Cheng!"
"The villain is here!" An old eunuch walked out under the greeting of Concubine Zheng Guifei, if Zhu Youxiao was here, he would definitely be able to recognize that an old eunuch was the one who wanted to suffocate him the day after he was born.
"Come here with your ears!"
Liu Cheng did as he was told, leaned short, and poked his ears over. As soon as Concubine Zheng lowered her head, her red lips happened to be in Liu Cheng's ears. His lips opened slightly, and the slightest secret words entered Cheng Cheng's ears, making his face sometimes nervous and sometimes frightened.
"Yes, sissy, little one...... The small ones will do it. Hearing the end, Liu Cheng's face turned pale and trembled.
After Liu Cheng retreated, a trace of resentment appeared on Concubine Zheng's face, and she was so angry that she picked up the teacup next to her and smashed it out, and the sound of cracking looked a little infiltrating in the empty palace.
After Xi Li gave birth, the time soon came to Zhengdan, because of the birth of a son, Xi Li was very proud this year, and the prince Zhu Changluo often accompanied me by her side.
After the confinement, Xi Li shook up his spirits again and began to tear up with Wang Cairen.
It's just that it seems that Wang Cairen has received the guidance of a master, and he has a deep understanding of Zhu Youxiao's status as the imperial grandson, plus some words that he didn't know where to learn, Xi Li Xuanzhi is not her opponent.
After several tears, Xi Li could only back down, this phenomenon made Wang Cairen more and more arrogant, and even Guo didn't put it in her eyes.
It's just that every day Zhu Youxiao goes out early and returns late, he is only a little vaguely aware of it, and he doesn't know much about the specific situation, and he doesn't know what Wang Cairen is like in Ciqing Palace. In front of her, Wang Cairen was very kind.
Daming Forbidden City, Wanli 38, Chinese New Year's Eve. At this time, it was almost more than nine o'clock in the evening in the previous life, and after more than two hours, it was the thirty-ninth year of Wanli.
The Chinese New Year's Eve in the palace is no different from ordinary families, the same fireworks, the same Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the same New Year's greetings and red envelopes.
After greeting Wanli and eating Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhu Youxiao changed into convenient clothes, took three cronies and eunuchs, and sneaked out of the Qianqing Palace, where he was originally going to spend the night.
Zhu Youxiao was a bit of a road idiot in his previous life, and he couldn't remember the road, and in this life, I don't know if it's because he changed his body and became a child's memory better, or because he walked too much, he basically remembered the terrain and architecture of the entire Forbidden City.
After half a year of training, his size has soared, he has become more than a meter, and his physical fitness is much higher than before. The principle is to explore the growth potential of the developmental period and greatly improve the physical fitness of the practitioners, so that it will not hurt the body, but will promote the development of children.
At this time, Zhu Youxiao's physical fitness had surpassed that of the three eunuchs, so he had to stop and wait for the three from time to time.
The three eunuchs dragged their feet, and they didn't dare to say anything, but they gritted their teeth and insisted. In this way, the four of them went around and around through an unknown number of portals before they stopped on the outside of a deserted palace.
Zhu Youxiao tilted his little head and looked at the plaque on the closed door, his face was complicated. There is a large rusty lock on the palace door, and although the big lock is badly corroded, it still looks very strong.
While Zhu Youxiao was observing, the three eunuchs were holding their knees and gasping for air. In order to be in a hurry, Zhu Youxiao almost trotted over this way.
After taking a breath, the three eunuchs looked up and couldn't help but change their faces. The plaque in between, with some mottled paint in between, had three large characters written on it.
"Gyeongyang Palace"
Among the three eunuchs, except for Cao Huachun, who had entered the inner study, the other two were all from the bottom level, if they hadn't come to Zhu Youxiao's side, they wouldn't have had the opportunity to contact these palace secrets at all.
But after becoming the Taisun Qiandi, they don't have much power, but their status has improved significantly, and some secrets can gradually come into contact, especially everything about His Royal Highness Taisun, they are closely collecting and paying attention to it.
For example, Concubine Wang Gong.
This Jingyang Palace is the secluded place of Concubine Wang Gong.
Although Wanli is very good to the grandson and is very similar to the prince now, he is not so merciful to Concubine Wang Gong, and has been confined in this palace.
At the same time, the concubine, the Zheng family can have unlimited scenery, fine clothes and food. And Concubine Wang Gong can only live in seclusion in this small palace, with poor food and clothing, no freedom, and her son can't see each other, and even the palace people here bully and persecute her. In such days, she has been ten or twenty years, washing her face with tears every day, and her eyes are blind in this torment.
It is precisely because they know so clearly that the three eunuchs are afraid, because this is the forbidden place of Wanli and the forbidden place of Concubine Zheng Guifei. If something really happens, Tai Sui may be fine, but a few of them can't guarantee it.
"Master......" Cao Huachun, who was holding a pen and paper, couldn't help but take a step forward and shouted with some hesitation.
Hearing his shout, Zhu Youxiao suddenly turned around and stared at him with a smile, his flat eyes made Cao Huachun feel furious, and he couldn't say the following words anymore.
He glanced at each of them, taking in the expressions of several people.
Cao Huachun was full of fear, a little cramped and restless, the paper and pen in his hand were grabbed by him, and the white paper was crumpled by him.
Although Wang Chengen also had a frightened look, his chest was very high and his waist was very straight, as if he was trying to calm his emotions and make himself look less afraid.
As for Wei Zhongxian, he was also startled at first, and then reacted, took a bold step forward with a calm face, knelt down and bowed: "The little one is willing to help His Highness enter this palace." ”
Although his face was flat, he was also uneasy in his heart, since the last time he retreated a step or two when he gave birth in Xili, the young master had been estranged from him, which made Wei Zhongxian panic.
Although the master did not drive him away from his side, he was obviously not as reused as before, and he didn't leave anything to him, but looked for Cao Huachun and Wang Chengen, this change made him inexplicably uneasy.
Tonight is a great opportunity, although Wang Chengen is loyal, but he is afraid of words, and Cao Huachun, he is afraid and hesitates, this is the moment for him Wei Zhongxian to show his skills.
Although he was also frightened in his heart, he still stepped forward.
"I hope I can make the right bet this time." He prayed in his heart.
Maybe it was the effect of his prayers, and the young master really smiled at him.
"Go and kneel at the base of the wall, wait for me to stand on your back, and then slowly get up." Zhu Youxiao pointed to the red wall and motioned for him to kneel over there.
Looking at the snow in the corner of the wall, Wei Zhongxian gritted his teeth, and he didn't care about the biting cold, so he directly stuck his hands in the snow and knelt down.
"Shhh Although he was mentally prepared, the sudden change in temperature still made him can't help but hiss. Hearing this voice, Zhu Youxiao glanced at him and then ignored it.
After Wei Zhongxian knelt down, he stood up with the support of Wang Chengen, ignoring Cao Huachun who was standing next to him. Then, Wei Zhongxian slowly got up, and Zhu Youxiao also grabbed the mottled gap in the red wall, slowly adjusted his posture, and stood on Wei Zhongxian's shoulder.
Zhu Youxiao is only six years old, and he is not heavy, although Wei Zhongxian is not strong, he can also carry him. After staggering to his feet, Wei Zhongxian held on to the wall and gritted his teeth.
When Cao Huachun saw this, he couldn't help but turn a little pale, he bit his lip, turned around, looked around, and made a look of looking at the wind.
It's just that looking at his scattered eyes and absent-minded appearance, it obviously doesn't look like he is looking at the wind.
After Wei Zhongxian stood up straight, Zhu Youxiao stretched out his hand and gestured, and then climbed on Wei Zhongxian's shoulder, and the whole person jumped up with this strength, and then he grabbed it with both hands, grabbed the bulge at the top of the palace wall, and after grasping it steadily, he climbed on the wall with both feet, and the whole person turned up.
Zhu Youxiao in this life, after the systematic training of the two masters, is much more agile than in the previous life, and this action is just a small meaning to him. If it weren't for the lack of height at the moment, he wouldn't need anyone's help, and he would be able to turn over by himself.
Standing on the wall, taking a look inside, and after seeing the terrain clearly, Zhu Youxiao took a vertical leap and jumped down.
"Master!!" A low cry rang out.
The two people under the wall saw Zhu Youxiao's action, and they were shocked and almost screamed, but fortunately, they still remembered that this was a forbidden place, so they stopped it in time and didn't make too much noise.
Crunch!
After Zhu Youxiao jumped down, he let out a piercing twisting sound, which was the sound of stepping on the snow hard. Listening to the sound, it seems to have fallen on a snowdrift. This sound made the hearts of the two eunuchs hang high, and they couldn't put it down, for fear that the snow would be too thick and the little master would twist his feet.
Then, there was a whirling sound of snow kicking, as if someone was walking through the snow. It wasn't until they heard this that the two of them put down their hanging hearts, and their little fate was protected.
After raising his hand and touching the cold sweat on his forehead, Wei Zhongxian was a little stunned to find that Wang Chengen on the opposite side also made the same action and raised his head in the same way.
"Haha!"
The two people who looked at each other were a little stunned, and then they looked at each other and smiled, and in an instant, the two of them had a tacit sense of sympathy in their hearts, and a strange atmosphere rose between the two.
This night, it's a little different!
