Chapter 21: Outside the Wende Palace

And the ministers who passed by here or were invited by the emperor to face the saint, or the eunuchs and palace maids who came and went, did not know this eunuch who hurriedly entered the palace to report after he confessed a crime to Huang Qiong. Although he had never seen the emperor, Huang Qiong still understood some of these rules, and knew that without the emperor's nod, even if he came on order, it was impossible to enter immediately. So at first, I waited patiently outside the temple.

It's just that I thought that the eunuch would soon bring himself in. Who knows that guy, and I don't know if it's to take revenge on himself for embarrassing him in the cold palace, or if his own emperor Lao Tzu consciously wants to dry himself. Huang Qiong stood outside the Wende Hall for a long time, and did not wait for the emperor to summon him.

Huang Qiong, who had been waiting for half an hour and had not seen a figure, was very angry at this time and wanted to leave. But remembering my mother's words before I came out, I could only hold back my anger and patience, and I had to put on a respectful posture and continue to wait here.

Although no one knows, he has been confined in the cold palace with his mother since he was born, and he has been the prince for eighteen years. Although he didn't dare to look at it openly, he also looked at this young man who was dressed simply, neither a eunuch nor a guard, with a puzzled look.

Huang Qiong was swept over from time to time by these ministers, eunuchs, and palace maids, and she was really embarrassed. Fortunately, the ministers who can come to Wende Hall are all of relatively high grades, and their cultivation is relatively sufficient. Those eunuchs and palace maids were curious, but no one had the courage to come.

But the curious gaze that occasionally swept over still made Huang Qiong feel a little embarrassed. Because he felt like he had become a monkey in a zoo, being put here for everyone to see. Facing the gazes that swept over from time to time, Huang Qiong was annoyed in her heart. But the problem is that this is not the place to get angry, and he can only lower his head and count the green bricks on the ground to avoid those curious eyes.

Just when Huang Qiong's endurance had almost reached its peak. A man dressed in a prince's costume hurriedly rushed from outside and rushed straight to where Huang Qiong was. The person who was running and tidying up his clothes didn't see Huang Qiong in the position he was running to.

If it weren't for Huang Qiong, who was counting the green bricks, when he heard the footsteps, he raised his head and pulled him straight to him, and the two of them bumped into each other. And at this time, this somewhat reckless guy saw that there was already someone in his position, and only then did he realize that he was a little reckless and said, "Thank you, brother." ”

It's just that the words of thanks haven't fallen yet, and this guy suddenly remembered something, and said with some surprise: "I said brother, where are you mixed up?" How did you run to my place and stand? After speaking, without waiting for Huang Qiong to agree or disagree, he dragged Huang Qiong to the side, and stood up.

Looking at this person in the prince's costume, standing there with hairy hands, Huang Qiong knew that this guy must be one of his brothers. Although Huang Qiong has not seen this era, what costumes do the prince and the prince wear. But this guy's clothes are embroidered with five dragons, which is in line with the regulations of the pro-dynasty costume of five scattered dragons customized in the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

According to the feudal system in the early years of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the prince was crowned king at the age of thirteen, went out of the palace at the age of thirteen, got married at the age of eighteen, and became a feudal at the age of twenty-one. As far as the prince of the vassal can only be customized once every three years, it is impossible for him to have other princes in Beijing except for his brother. What's more, his grandfather killed the descendants of Lizong and Shizong, except for one King Yong.

As for the other clans, according to the early years of the founding of the country, the prince and the concubine were reduced to the rank of county king, and the concubine was named the auxiliary general. The prince of the county was reduced to the title of the prince of the country, and the concubine was named the general of the country. The son-in-law of the prince of the country was demoted to the general of the Zhenguo, and the concubine was named the lieutenant of the auxiliary country. It was not until the title was reduced to the lieutenant of Fengguo and the concubine was reduced to the court, that it was no longer demoted to a hereditary descending standard, and the rest of the descendants of the first emperor now have no princes alive.

Except for his own brother, who was not yet old enough to become a vassal and remained in the capital, there could be no one else for this young prince. As for which prince this is, whether he is older or younger than herself, Huang Qiong can't guess this. Even if you are smaller than yourself, it is estimated that you will not be much smaller than yourself.

Huang Qiong looked carefully at the one beside her, although the prince's clothes on her body were still neat and tidy after some tidying, they were still wrinkled. The stretching head on the head is also buckled crookedly on the head, and the boots on the feet are obviously not a pair of brothers.

And after this guy estimated the hour, felt that he was not late, and sighed for a long time, he remembered the person who had just been dragged by him. Hurriedly turned his head and looked at Huang Qiong as carefully. The two of them looked at each other with big eyes, and after a long time, the guy saw Huang Qiong dressed as a scholar, and he never saluted himself according to the rules.

Only then did he scratch his scalp, which was always a little uncomfortable because the head of the leg mattress on his head was not properly worn, and he took the lead in speaking: "Who are you, why have I never seen you in the palace?" But you look familiar, as if you've seen it there. You're here to meet the saint too? ”

Hearing this guy's words, Huang Qiong just smiled and said: "My name is Huang Qiong, and this is the first time I have come to meet the emperor, and I have never been to the palace, so I have never met Your Excellency." Looking at the prince's costume, it should be at the level of the prince, and I don't know if your Excellency is the prince. ”

Huang Qiong's answer was decent, but the prince pointed to his nose very dissatisfied: "Listen to your surname, your kid should also be a clan." Even if you haven't been to the palace, you haven't seen me in the capital? Haven't even heard of me? I said you won't be out of town and enter Beijing for the first time. "With this prince, I thought that everyone in the capital should know him.

"The boy is from the capital, but he has been left at home by his mother to study, and has never gone out. I really haven't heard of the prince's name, and I ask the prince to forgive me. In order to avoid trouble, Huang Qiong did not explain her identity, but instead talked to this guy on this topic. It's boring to wait anyway, and it's a good thing to talk to this guy.

When this guy heard Huang Qiong's explanation, he seemed to be a little better: "I said brother, you are still a member of the clan or a person from the capital, and you don't even know your family King Yong?" I don't know you kid got out of that ravine. By the way, why are you kid here? Looking at what you are wearing, it doesn't look like you have an official position. ”

"The clan is not allowed to participate in the imperial examination, this is the ancestral system. Are you a gift? That's not right, Eun Zhu also has to wear official uniforms. You won't be? Could it be that in our clan, there are also children who have mixed up to this point? This is unlikely, I really don't know, there is a small knife hand in this world who dares to castrate the clan? ”

Speaking of which, this Yongwang didn't care what Wende Hall was, nor did he care about his status as a prince, and his hand went straight to Huang Qiong's lower body. As if to verify it, the one in front of him was neither wearing an official uniform nor a clan dress. The person who is only wearing a scholar's outfit is not as he imagined.

Seeing that this guy didn't care about it and went directly to his own point, Huang Qiong hurriedly stopped him with one hand and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Royal Highness King Yong, I haven't gotten mixed up to that point yet." The kid didn't know what happened when the emperor suddenly summoned him today, so he couldn't answer this question of King Yong. ”

"Oh, that's good." Hearing that Huang Qiong was not forced to enter the palace as a eunuch for life, this Yongwang breathed a sigh of relief: "I don't know which one you are, you didn't even wear a dress when you entered the palace." If this is played as a rude in front of a king, this will not be worth much. The mad dogs of the Imperial Tower, but they will bite whoever they catch, and they don't care if you are a clan or not. ”

"Look at the clothes you wear, you probably don't mix well. At present, it has been more than 100 years since the founding of the Great Qi Dynasty, and the population of the clan has increased. I heard that some of the side branch clans are not very good now, and I heard that some of the far branch clans that did not attack the title only relied on the imperial court for fifty yuan a year and six stones of rice, and there were poor people who couldn't open the pot. ”

"But it doesn't matter, our buddies know each other today. If the old man doesn't give you a knighthood today, you will mess with me in the future. I will take care of you and ensure that your family lives without worry. No one in this capital dares to give you the seventh master my face. ”

When Huang Qiong heard his words, she was angry and funny. The two of them just talked for a while, and they became brothers. You are a pie, this is really too many brothers in the four seas. However, he has no playmates since he was a child, except for his mother and Aunt Yao, there is no Huang Qiong who speaks more, and his heart is somewhat warm when he hears these words.

After a few words, Huang Qiong also liked it a little, this brother with a bit of a big personality and straight temperament. Although this guy doesn't know yet, he is also one of his many brothers. Although before returning to this era, Huang Qiong was already a person of Bensan.

And after returning to this era, the body has become a child. But he has already matured his mind and no longer needs playmates. Otherwise, a child so small would be enclosed in a yard all day. Except for the eunuchs who come to deliver things every once in a while, and never speak when they deliver things.

In addition to a taciturn mother, and a palace maid who also didn't talk much, there were two deaf and dumb old eunuchs. There is not even a speaker, even if there is no problem with the language, but it is stupid. It's just that Huang Qiong is psychologically and physically, although there are no problems, she occasionally hopes that someone can accompany her to chat.

However, for this guy's promise, Huang Qiong only smiled and arched his hand: "Then here you are, thank you for the kindness of His Royal Highness King Yong." If he returns empty-handed this time, after obtaining his mother's consent, he will definitely go to the eternal king. When the time comes, please take care of His Royal Highness King Yong. ”

Huang Qiong's statement made this Yongwang quite enjoyable: "That's right, can't you write two yellow characters in one stroke." Everyone is a brother from the same ancestor, who is waiting to take care of each other if they don't take care of each other? But if you want to say brother, don't look at your age younger than me, but this is not accurate, I wonder if you are still my elder. ”

"The generations of our heavenly family are too chaotic, a few days ago, a county duke who was younger than me entered the capital to face the saint. Okay, this calculation only knows that this county prince who is one year younger than me has to be called the uncle of the family according to the seniority. But if you do come to me, let's talk about it first, and we can't divide it into generations. Since they are the same age, they are all brothers. ”
