Chapter 6 The Prince's Mansion

Shang Shanjian is the royal canteen, there is no heavy work, but the chores are constant, from picking vegetables, washing vegetables, brushing dishes and washing dishes, you must know that this is responsible for the food of tens of thousands of people in the entire palace, and the amount of tasks can be imagined.

Chang Yu never thought that he would become a dishwasher, and he worked until dark, not to mention the tired back pain, the important thing is that his hands are red from the cold, and there is no hot water for you to use to wash the dishes.

I finally stayed up until I had to get off work and eat, and suddenly there was another task, to enter the palace to deliver food!

I couldn't help but suddenly feel my heart tighten, it turned out that Chang Yu had a shadow, and last time he accidentally slipped and knocked over the lunch box when he entered the palace to deliver food to a concubine, and was reprimanded, and the palm print eunuch Liu Jiangshui almost beat him to death in anger.

Delivering food is definitely not an easy job, in addition to the emperor, the palace also has three palaces and six courtyards n concubines, plus the prince and princess, everyone has their own taste requirements, and the number of meals ordered is also varied, some are only one lunch box, and some are as many as dozens, so there are tired eunuchs who deliver food.

"Chang Yu, Duanben Palace," an old eunuch shouted with a booklet in his hand, looking at the eunuchs lined up below.

Chang Yu raised his eyebrows, and said secretly in his heart: Who lives in this palace? Thinking about walking forward, he walked to the front row of food boxes, found two food boxes with the Duanbengong brand written on them, picked them up and walked out.

Walking out of Shangshan Prison with a food box, there were eunuchs coming and going everywhere, and he was still muttering in his heart who the master of the palace was, but Chunxiang was not around and didn't ask, so he had to continue to go straight to Donghua Gate.

There are a few guards standing at Donghua Gate checking the waist card, yes, don't think that if you are a eunuch, you can enter the inner palace at will, that is impossible, only the eunuch on duty can enter, and the rest will wander around your internal affairs office.

After checking the waist card, Chang Yu successfully entered the Donghua Gate, and there were already a large number of palace maids and eunuchs waiting in the door, calling each other.

"Here in Duanben Palace" Chang Yu heard the prestige, and saw a sixteen or seventeen-year-old little palace maid holding a lantern and looking around, and hurriedly walked over.

"Hey, the face is raw" The little palace maid was not scared, she looked at Chang Yu and said with a smile, turned around and led the way with a lantern in front of her.

"I just entered the palace, and I want more guidance from the young lady in the future" Chang Yu couldn't help but joke when he saw the little beauty.

"Yo, the mouth is sweet" The little palace maid turned around and glanced at Chang Yu: "It's still handsome, but I'm afraid it's older than me."

"You are all sisters" Chang Yu smiled: "By the way, the beautiful young lady listens to the ears of the palace, and many of our families are not familiar with it when they first enter the palace......"

"Really?" Maybe she was happy to be called by Chang Yu, and the little palace maid kept smiling: "Duanben Palace was called Ciqing Palace before, is this still ear-scratching?" He winked mischievously at Chang Yu as he spoke, after all, it was a little girl who met her peers, and that kind of nature would always be revealed inadvertently.

Ciqing Palace? Chang Yu raised his eyebrows, it was indeed a little familiar, as far as he knew, it seemed that Empress Zhou had lived here before...... was speculating, but found that the little palace maid was walking in the direction of the south with her, and she couldn't help but jump in her heart!

The Forbidden City is a harem north of the Qianqing Gate, but now it is facing south, there is only one possibility, the prince's mansion, only the prince can not live in the harem!

Because of some taboos, the princes must move out of the harem when they become adults, of course, they do not necessarily have to wait until they reach adulthood, such as the princes who are princes, at this time, they generally have to move to the Wenhua Hall or Ciqing Palace on the east side of the Huangji Palace, which is commonly known as the East Palace.

"It turned out to be the Prince's Mansion," Chang Yuqiang said lightly with a wave in his heart.

"Two years ago, in order to prepare for the prince's wedding, the emperor changed Ciqing Palace to Duanben Palace......" The little palace maid continued to chatter, but Chang Yu couldn't listen to a word anymore.

He was now looking forward to meeting the last prince of the Ming Dynasty, a prince who was rumored to be missing but everyone knew that he had been killed by the Tartars.

Ciqing Palace is not tall and majestic, at least not as imposing as the flip in later generations, but the courtyard is very large and there are several mansions of the second generation of partial officials.

Although the mansion is large, the prince is by no means lonely, to put it bluntly, before the throne, the prince's mansion was also a small yamen, with several officially recognized official positions, and the people who sat in these positions usually became ministers after the prince ascended the throne.

Of course, the current prince is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he is not married, even if the Ming Dynasty does not perish, his father Chongzhen is still young, and it is still early for him to ascend the throne, although he will never have a chance to ascend the throne.

Therefore, the mansion of the last prince of the Ming Dynasty is still relatively empty, with only a few guards, palace maids, and eunuchs.

Carrying a lunch box and following this little palace maid named Linglong to check the waist card and enter the prince's mansion, walking through the long stone road, Ciqing Palace is in front of you.

Climb dozens of stairs to the palace gate, the door is closed, and a few guards walk back and forth in the corridor under the eaves.

Linglong stepped forward and knocked lightly, and the door of the palace immediately opened, and two palace maids walked out from inside to take the food box from Chang Yu's hands and send it in, leaving Chang Yu alone at the door, he had to wait for the prince to finish eating and then bring the food box back to Shang Shanjian.

Waiting was a little boring, I wanted to see the prince at a glance, but I didn't want the palace door to be closed and he didn't have a chance at all, I wanted to peek a few times through the crack of the door, but I saw that there were guards patrolling back and forth around the palace, so I had to give up, don't look back and be pressed on a peeping lord privacy or something like that.

The weather was unusually cold, and Chang Yu waited for less than ten minutes at the entrance of the hall, and then felt that his hands and feet were a little wooden, and he couldn't help but move around and stomp his feet gently.

"The little father-in-law is still a good prisoner?" At this time, several guards patrolling the temple gate came over and asked softly.

Chang Yu had a premonition of something, and then nodded.

"Then dare to ask Shang Shanjian if there is a father-in-law of Chang Yu," a bearded man asked.

Chang Yu nodded again.

The three of them looked at each other: "I heard that Chang Gonggong and Jin Wuwei's small flag competition won the fist and kick competition, is it really a thing?" ”

Chang Yu nodded again!

The three of them were full of doubts: "The little father-in-law can't lie!" ”

"Of course don't lie, because our family is that Chang Gonggong" Chang Yu smiled.

What the? The three of them suddenly looked confused, the thin little eunuch in front of them was the one who knocked over Liang Fa with one punch? No way!

"The rumors are not credible, now these little eunuchs will all blow the air!" The bearded man shook his head and looked at Chang Yu with a look of disdain, "You really beat Jin Wuwei?" ”

"Dissatisfied, come to fight," Chang Yu gave him a blank look.

Hey, you little eunuch! The beard was furious: "Mo Dao, I'm still afraid of you, I can't do it" said that he was about to do it.

"Wait!"

Chang Yu jumped back: "Since you have heard the name of our family, you must know the rules."

"What rules?" The beard was stunned.

"Five taels of silver to fight, willing to gamble and lose" said and took out the silver from his arms: "Spread it in the palm of your hand, do you have the guts?" ”

, the beard snorted, and glared at Chang Yu: "I'm afraid you won't succeed" said and stretched out his hand to touch his arms for a long time, but he found a small piece of broken silver, and he couldn't see two taels: "That's all first, you can't win anyway"

Chang Yu waved his hand: "Don't win or lose first, the gambling money is not enough, I will not accompany you!" As he spoke, he rolled his eyes and whispered: "Dick Silk" The voice is neither high nor low, just for the beard to hear.

"Rub, your stubble is really ugly, look at me and I won't clean you up" The beard was furious, although he didn't understand the meaning of the dick, but it must not be a good word, and his voice couldn't help but raise under anger, and he kicked Chang Yu as he spoke.

"What's the noise out there?"

At the same time that Chang Yu dodged the kick of his beard, a childish voice came from the hall with a slight anger.

Don't believe you don't come out, Chang Yu couldn't help but laugh secretly, just now he deliberately provoked the beard just now just wanted to startle the snake, so that the prince inside could hear it, since he came, how could he meet him.

"The prince atoned for his sins," and several bearded people hurriedly bowed their heads towards the main hall.
