Chapter 161: Trivia
After listening to this, Li Shanchang left, he was going to go back to discuss with the auxiliary officials of Zhongshu Province, and Zhu Biao stayed here to continue to invigilate the exam, after all, it was only the first day, and it was not appropriate for both of them to leave.
But this matter is really boring, Zhu Biao silently walked around several times, and then gave up, those candidates were already very nervous, and when they saw Zhu Biao approaching, they used all their strength to write, wanting to show their demeanor like a god.
Zhu Biao was a little bored, he knew that he would stay with Li Shanchang to chat for a while, walked to the chief examiner Song Lian's house, and sat down after the two sides met the ceremony, Zhu Biao asked, "Master Song, do you have exam papers?" ”
Song Lian smiled and said: "Yes, yes, but no matter how well His Highness answers, he can't be the champion." ”
Zhu Biao also smiled: "It's just to pass the time." ”
Zhu Biao was bored and Song Lian was also bored, so Zhu Biao began to answer, Song Lian watched with satisfaction on the side, brushed his beard and nodded from time to time, so when it was dark, Zhu Biao finished answering their three-day test papers in one day.
After Zhu Biao finished writing, he stood up and moved his muscles and asked, "How does Master Song read this volume?" ”
Song Lian said with a smile: "You can be the standard for grading." ”
Zhu Bao said goodbye to Song Lian proudly, he won't use it tomorrow, just take a look at it when the scientific examination is over.
Zhu Biao walked out of the house, and the candlelight had already lit in the number room outside, and some chose to rest directly, recuperate and answer the questions tomorrow, which was also a psychological test.
Zhu Biao finally inspected the examination room, and then walked out through the gate, returned to the East Palace, washed his feet and lay down under the service of Nuan Yu, and just about to drop the candle, he heard Yun Jin's voice.
Zhu Biao let her in, and after Yun Jin saluted, he naturally sat on the edge of the bed: "Today, when the slave maid was serving by the queen's mother's side, I happened to meet Princess Kaiping and the princess came to visit, and the princess also rewarded the slave and maid with a piece of jade pendant. ”
Zhu Biao didn't pay much attention to Yun Jin's words, but looked at her soft face, Yun Jin's characteristic is that innate gentle temperament, obviously she is still a little girl, she is very mature in taking care of people and doing things. ”
Zhu Biao closed his eyes and said, "If you give it to you, you will accept it, don't think about it." ”
Yun Jin replied softly: "The slave knows." ”
The two stopped talking, and Zhu Biao didn't let go of Yun Jin's hand, and fell asleep unconsciously.
The next morning, Zhu Biao didn't see Yunjin after he got up, the big and small shuang'er waited for him to dress and wash, Zhu Biao didn't want to eat by himself, so he set off and walked to Kunning Palace, ready to have a meal.
Along the way, I saw many eunuchs and palace maids like hard-working ants, cleaning up the palace early.
When Zhu Biao arrived at Kunning Palace, he happened to meet Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma having dinner together, and he was very happy to see his son come early in the morning.
The three of them didn't say anything, but Zhu Biao just felt relieved inexplicably, and after a while, Zhu Yuanzhang finished drinking, got up and patted his son's shoulder and went out to the court.
Zhu Biao is not surprised, his father has always eaten very quickly, not wolfing but very quickly, probably a habit left over from his youth.
After a while, the sleepy-eyed classmate Zhu Lu came out, Zhu Biaole stretched out his hand to her, Zhu Lu seemed to still remember his brother, obediently wrapped his arms around his brother's neck, buried his little head in Zhu Biao's arms and prepared to sleep for a while.
Zhu Biao hugged Zhu Lu and said for a while before he really woke her up, and then handed it over to the nurse to feed, although Zhu Lu didn't drink milk at this time, the food was still very fine, and it was all made in the small kitchen of Kunning Palace.
Queen Ma looked at her son and said, "Since you like children so much, then give me a grandson as soon as possible." ”
Zhu Biao smiled: "Before your son got married, you began to urge you to have a child." ”
Queen Ma sighed and said: "This day is really boring, you father and son are busy from morning to night, just like your father and I both know when he came back last night, and I don't see anyone on weekdays." ”
Zhu Biao was also very helpless about this, in the Tang Dynasty, the status of women had improved to a certain extent compared with the previous dynasty. Wu Zetian, the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, made a lot of efforts to this end. At that time, there were few restrictions on women's participation in social activities.
And after the unremitting efforts of the scholars and doctors of the Song Dynasty, especially the noble women, there are very few things that can be done, and they are basically inseparable from their own yards.
When Zhu Yuanzhang raised the army, Queen Ma was in charge of the inside and outside, and the military generals and their families were properly arranged and taken care of by her, but now they are restricted and in the inner courtyard of the deep palace, and no one can see them except those women.
Even if the wives originally got along well with Queen Ma, now they have to pay attention to the etiquette of respect and humility, and the affairs in the palace are handled by Yun Jin to help her, and the concubines in the palace are also respectful.
Queen Ma is now a testament to how lonely invincible is.
Zhu Biao had to promise to marry his daughter-in-law and give birth to grandchildren to his mother as soon as possible, and Queen Ma pulled him to chat with Chang Luohua for a while, and he could feel that he was still very satisfied.
Zhu Biao stayed for a while and then returned to the East Palace, and then began to continue to prepare for his work, many things will have a better idea if you think about it, in the afternoon, the eunuch next to Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly sent some things.
Zhu Biao asked Liu Jin to take it, and then opened it and felt very familiar, isn't this the picture of the Spring Palace found in Lu Chang's study?
Zhu Biao's face darkened, and the rest of the things were opened one by one, and it could only be said that Lao Zhu was fully prepared, not only the Spring Palace Diagram but also the books that explained the matter in detail.........
It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang also wants to hug his grandson as soon as possible, for fear that his son has not yet enlightened, but he can't tell his father, that's all?
Zhu Biao said to the smiling eunuch with a bright face: "When you go back to report to my father, just say that I will study it well." ”
Asked Liu Jin to send him out, Zhu Biao couldn't help but smile, and read a few pages of the book casually, not bad, it seems that the ancients were still very professional in this regard, and yes, after all, there is nothing to decompress except this.
Zhu Biao's body is actually developing very well, and he has begun to enter puberty, if he wants to, he can indeed give birth to an heir, which is actually very important, the prince has a successor, and the subordinates of the East Palace will be more at ease.
However, Zhu Biao plans to live another two years, he doesn't need his son to stabilize his position, and Chang Luohua is not very old, so it is still very risky to give birth in ancient times.
After Liu Jin came back, he also looked at it curiously, and then his eyes dimmed a lot, the eunuch naturally had the pain of the eunuch, but Liu Jin immediately raised a smile.
A slave is a slave and a maid, and when his master is happy, he has to follow suit, how can he spoil his master's interest.
Zhu Biao was naturally not so vulgar, so he had to look at the spring palace map with the castrated eunuch and told him to put it away, and Zhu Biao continued to study his own affairs.
