Chapter 218: Once Upon a Time
Towards noon, the review of the excerpt was also at an end. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Yunxi is trying to entertain the ministers for dinner, and then let them go back, and he has other arrangements in the afternoon. At this time, the little eunuch guarding the gate of the Qianqing Palace came over and said, "Your Majesty, Zheng Guogong and Chang Commander ask to see you." Then he added: "Zheng Guogong also brought a child, and it doesn't look like a child of Zheng Guogong's mansion." "He had seen people from Zheng Guogong's family before, so he knew.
Yun Xi was a little surprised: "What are Chang Sheng and Chang Sen doing with a child coming to me?" But at once let them in to a side temple.
Chang Sheng and Chang Sen walked in, and Chang Sheng was holding a child with his right hand. The little boy looked to be about seven or eight years old, and there was a panicked look in his eyes.
Chang Sheng and Chang Sen knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the minister Chang Sheng (Chang Sen) has seen Your Majesty." The child knelt down with him, but did not speak, for fear or for some other reason.
Yun Xi smiled and said, "Two uncles, please get up." When they got up, Yun Xi sat down on the couch himself, let them sit down, and then asked, "What is the matter with the two uncles today?" ”
Chang Sheng bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty, the minister is here today because he has something to ask His Majesty." ”
As he spoke, he pointed to the little boy who had been standing in trepidation and said, "This is the son of my eldest brother Chang Mao." ”
Yun Xi asked in surprise, "Uncle still has descendants?" At that time, didn't Emperor Taizu not be able to find the descendants of his eldest uncle before letting his second uncle inherit the position of the prince of the country? ”
Chang Sheng said: "At that time, the eldest brother really had no children. The child's biological mother was my eldest brother's concubine, and she had just conceived the child not long after the eldest brother passed away; Emperor Taizu ordered someone to inquire whether the eldest brother had any descendants, and the means were a little more eager, so she did not say it at that time, but fled back to her hometown. ”
"Later, the man died in childbirth, and the child was raised by the locals."
"Later, Uncle Lan asked someone to inquire, and after Uncle Lan passed away, I also took over to continue the investigation, and then I stumbled upon the eldest brother's child in that small village, which I brought back recently."
Chang Sheng's words are not true, but there is no problem with logic. Although Chang Sheng didn't dare to expose this child before because he was afraid of 2, such a thing can't be said to Yun Xi.
Yun Hee asked, "Are you sure?" Is this kid really my uncle's child? ”
Chang Sheng said: "There is no doubt about it! Chang Sen also said: "Your Majesty, it's true." ”
Since everyone in the Chang family has been confirmed, Yun Xi will not ask for repeated verification. He laughed, "Then this is my little cousin." ”
Then he asked Chang Sheng: "What is the name of this little cousin?" You came this time to ask him for a hereditary future? No problem, I can add him as hereditary commander as soon as I officially enter him into the Chang family tree. ”
Chang Sheng said: "My little nephew was named Chang Jifeng a few days ago. ”
Then Chang Sheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, the minister wants to ask Your Majesty to pass on the title of Duke Zheng Guo to my little nephew. ”
Yun Xi didn't wait for him to finish, and said, "No! I have just canonized you as the Duke of Zheng Guogong, a hereditary title, this is a reward from the state, how can you give it to others at will because of your own family's affairs? ”
What Yun Xi said is only an obvious reason, and there is a deeper reason, that Yun Xi has smoothed out the Chang family in recent years, and if he gives the title to Chang Jifeng, who has just emerged, it is equivalent to a transfer of the person in charge of the Chang family. What if Chang Jifeng is not good when he grows up, and the Chang family is restless? The Chang family is his uncle's family in the end, and it will not be good for Yun Xi if it is messed up.
After Chang Sheng was rejected, although he looked a little depressed, he was mentally prepared and was not too disappointed, and Chang Sen's expression on the side was the same as his.
In fact, within the Chang family, except for Chang Sheng and Chang Sen brothers, other people may not dare to say it clearly, but most of them are against it, and even Chang Mao's wife Feng is just casual.
Chang's mother scolded Chang Sheng after knowing her second son's plan. If Chang's mother was still alive now, Chang Sheng would not dare to come to the palace to talk about it.
Yun Xi left Chang Sheng, Chang Sen and Chang Jifeng to have a meal in the palace later, and chatted casually about a little family life, and let them go back.
But after they went down, Yun Xi immediately sent someone to call Qin Song over.
After Qin Song came, he asked, "Your Majesty, what's the matter with the minister?" ”
Yun Xi roughly told Qin Song about the matter, and then said: "Although there is nothing wrong with what he said, and the Chang family should have no reason to hide anything from me, I still think it is too much of a coincidence." You go and find out how this kid came to be. Let's start with the capital. ”
Qin Song replied, "Yes, Your Majesty." "Then stand back.
====================================================
Chang Sheng and Chang Sen took Chang Jifeng out of the palace, and Chang Sheng said to Chang Jifeng with a smile: "How is it?" Do you feel that entering the palace and meeting the emperor is the same as you imagined in the countryside of Longtan Village, Jurong County? ”
Chang Sheng has been finding Chang Jifeng for several days, and he has been cultivating a relationship with Chang Jifeng these days. It took Chang Sheng a long time to get Chang Jifeng to accept that he was from the Chang family, of course, this is also because the Chang family is too awesome and insists that he is Chang Mao's son and there is no need to lie.
In the past few days, Chang Jifeng and Chang Sheng have become a little more familiar, and they dare to say a word.
So Chang Jifeng whispered: "Uncle, I always thought that the palace was made entirely of gold, but now I found that there are bricks, stones, wood, etc." ”
"As for the Emperor, I have never imagined what the Emperor is like."
Chang Sheng smiled: "I know this time!" I heard your grandfather say that before he became the emperor, he didn't know what the emperor was like and what kind of life the dignitaries and nobles lived. ”
"Although it is unlikely that you will see the emperor often in the future, you must know that the emperor is your cousin, and you are a relative of the royal family, although this cannot be said casually, but this is the truth. And you are still the son of the top noble family in the Ming Dynasty, and you will have to adapt to your current life in the future. ”
Chang Jifeng nodded and said, "Got it, uncle." ”
====================================================
Yun Xi finished eating, rested for a while, and then changed into the regular clothes of ordinary royal children who are now flooded in the capital, and then went out of the palace with the guards.
Well, Yun Xi is on another micro-service trip today, because if today's events are officially traveled, he will definitely be overwhelmed by batch after batch of folds if the civil officials know about it.
However, when passing by the Imperial Horse Supervisor, Yun Xi instructed Chang Ruijiang: "You go and tell the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Prison that the people who are now under the supervision of the Imperial Horse and can build and repair carriages, whether they are eunuchs or ordinary craftsmen, are called to the Yamen of the Imperial Horse Eunuch in the imperial city, and I have something to ask them." Then Yun Xi got into the carriage.
Now Yun Xi doesn't dare to run outside on horseback, what if an arrow comes and kills him? Especially in the city, the houses are much older, and there are too many places to hide people.
The royal carriage, although specially equipped with anti-arrow equipment, but the selection of the best horses, so the speed is not slow at all, plus the people in the city see the royal carriage to avoid it, so the four-horse carriage arrived at the destination after a while.
This is a medium-sized courtyard not far from the city wall, and although there are some people living around here, but the road here is opposite one of the warehouses of the imperial court in the city, except for the soldiers who come to receive things, there is no one else here, and Yun Xi is lucky today, there are no people along the way.
Yun Xi got out of the carriage and walked into the courtyard.
At this time, there were two people waiting in the courtyard, and when they saw Yun Xi coming in, they immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Grass people Lu Chengfeng (Feng Mo), meet the emperor, long live the emperor, long live long live!" ”
This is the main and deputy owner of the riverside village outside the city. Lu Chengfeng has been in a state of excitement since Yun Xi succeeded to the throne, although this should have been expected a long time ago, but he still couldn't help but be excited.
He is the only one His Majesty the Emperor who has personally visited Zhuangzi! Although it is not Huangzhuang, it is even more awesome than Huangzhuang! I, Lu Chengfeng, am the head of the village who has been personally received by His Majesty, how can I not get a five- or six-grade official body in the future!
In those days, the whole Zhuangzi was rumored that Lu Zhuang was crazy, and it was not until half a month later that he returned to normal.
Then Lu Chengfeng thought that the emperor had forgotten about himself and this Zhuangzi, after all, there are so many things in such a big country, who always remembers a small Zhuangzi?
Although the workshop that makes glass is still in Riverside Village, everything is going smoothly, and if you want to regain His Majesty's attention, unless you suddenly stop producing glass, Lu Chengfeng doesn't want such a thing to happen at all.
But just yesterday a guard who had seen him before came and told him, 'Tomorrow I will go into the city with the deputy lord to face the saint.' He was immediately excited again, and told Feng Mo the news that Sun Gongzi was the emperor.
Feng Mo was also stunned! And until now, he still felt that it was all a dream, until he heard the sound of "flat body", he still just got up by inertia, and still stood stupidly to the side.
Yun Xi looked at Lu Chengfeng, who was excited and a little afraid, and Feng Mo, who was standing stupidly on the side, and said warmly: "You don't have to be afraid, how you talked to me before, how you talk to me today." ”
Then Yun Xi didn't wait for them to get used to it, his time was precious, and said directly: "How is the glass in the glass workshop now?" How big can the biggest one be? ”
Lu Chengfeng bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, you can make two-foot-long glass." ”
Yun Xi nodded with satisfaction and said, "Not bad." What about double convex lenses? ”
Lu Chengfeng said again: "It is easy to build, after all, it is small." It's just not easy to grind. His Majesty's requirements were too high, and if they were worn out, they had to be re-polished, and last year the best craftsmen fell ill and died. Now there are dozens of polished ones in the library. ”
