Yoon-hee turned around and got on his horse. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info was about to leave, when he suddenly heard Chang Sheng say, "It turned out to be you." ”

Yun Xi turned his head to see that a man in his thirties in a brocade suit was walking towards Chang Sheng with a smile, and he was followed by a young woman, because Yun Xi couldn't see her appearance and age clearly because he was walking with his head down.

The man first said to Chang Sheng: "Grandpa Guo also came to visit Liang Guogong today?" Then he pointed at Yunxi and said, "This is Shaoguo Gong." ”

Chang Sheng hurriedly said: "This is His Royal Highness the current emperor's grandson, and he still doesn't salute." ”

The man immediately fell to his knees in fright and said, "I have seen His Royal Highness Taisun." Please also ask Your Highness for forgiveness. ”

Chang Sheng leaned over and said to Yun Xi: "This is the former commander of Xuzhou Wei, and the hereditary commander is Lin Hai. I was only recently transferred back to the capital, so I don't know His Highness. I also ask Your Highness to forgive his sins. ”

Yun Xi said: "Those who don't know are not guilty. Arise, and do not ask for sin. Lin Hai bowed two more times before getting up.

Yun Xi turned his head to Lan Zhen and smiled: "Your communication is quite extensive!" ”

Lan Zhen hurriedly said: "Back to His Royal Highness, Commander Lin is the minister's uncle, so the minister is familiar with him. ”

At this time, the woman who followed Lin Hai came up and saluted and said, "The people have seen His Highness. ”

Yun Xi said casually: "Get up, no need to be polite." But then he swept his eyes and was stunned, because this person looked very much like the actor who played Lin Daiyu in the 87 version of Dream of Red Mansions.

Yun Xi glanced at it several times, then reacted that this was not appropriate, and immediately turned his head. But the woman's face was already flushed.

Yun Xi looked at her very much like Lin Daiyu, and her surname happened to be Lin, so she resisted the desire to ask her 'what is your name', turned her horse's head and left. I vaguely heard the man say 'Chaoying' or something.

Yun Xi separated from Chang Sheng on the way, and returned to the palace with his guards, then dismounted and went straight to Qianqing Palace.

Of course, Lao Zhu was reviewing the excerpts, and when he saw Yun Xi walking in, he said with a smile: "Yun Xi should have just come back from outside the palace, what do you want to find grandpa?" ”

Yun Xi sat on the cushion in front of Lao Zhu after the salute and said, "Grandson wants to ask Grandpa to allow Grandpa to summon King Lee Sung-gye of Korea after he goes to the north." ”

Lao Zhu said suspiciously: "Why did you remember to summon the king of Joseon?" ”

Yun Xi said: "North Korea is obedient to the Ming Dynasty, and grandpa allows him to be the prince, which is really the first foreign domain of the Ming Dynasty." The grandson wanted to commend him for his deference to his face. ”

Lao Zhu didn't care too much about letting the monarch of the foreign domain run around, but he noticed another point: "Li Chenggui is sixty-one years old this year, only seven years younger than his grandfather, I'm afraid he won't go to Peking or other places to see you on a saddle horse, most of them will refuse, and grandpa won't let an old man in his sixties run to meet you." ”

Yun Xi said: "Li Chenggui can also send his son to meet him. Last year, his son came to pay tribute, and his grandson was busy talking about Wutang and didn't have time to talk about it, so this time he could talk a little more. After a pause, Yun Xi said again: "Actually, my grandson wants to go to North Korea to have a look, but this time I don't have time." ”

Lao Zhu said: "You are the grandson of Emperor Daming, how can you go to the foreign domain." This is not to be mentioned. "Yun Xi responded.

Lao Zhu said again: "I have begun to think that you want Li Chenggui to meet you and show the prestige of a great country and summon him. But you said that it was okay to send his son to the court, so why should you see him in the north? Wouldn't it be okay for him to send his son to the capital to see you? ”

Yun Xi patted his head and said, "Grandpa said yes." It's better for grandpa to give a decree to North Korea, if Li Chenggui can travel, let him go to the north, such as Beiping to see me; If Li Chenggui could not travel, he sent his son to Beijing to meet him. ”

Lao Zhu said: "Then grandpa will give a decree to North Korea." And this year, the congratulatory table of North Korea was scornful, and the sinner who drafted the congratulatory table had not yet been sent to the capital, and the grandfather had to issue an order to urge. ”

Yun Xi also remembered this matter. This year, the congratulatory table sent by Liu Xun, the North Korean envoy, was not very respectful to Daming, and Zhu Yuanzhang was furious and blamed him. Liu Xun said that the congratulatory table was written by Zheng Daochuan and others. Lao Zhu then let Liu Xun return to China and asked North Korea to arrest Zheng Daochuan and others and send them to the capital of the Ming Dynasty to punish the crime.

At that time, Yun Xi was shocked. Even when the United States was the most awesome, there was no matter of asking the other party to arrest the author of the New Year's message because of the disrespectful New Year's message of a foreign country, even a small puppet country. In the western part of Manraka, the Ming Dynasty is much more powerful than the United States in the 21st century.

Yun Xi talked to Lao Zhu about other things for a while, and when it was time to have dinner, Lao Zhu drove Yun Xi back to Wenhua Palace.

After dinner, Yun Xi said to Xi Yao and Xi Yi: "I have something to deal with tonight, so I won't accompany you." "In the past few days, Yun Xi has been with Xi Yao and them every night after eating, so I specially instructed them today.

Xi Yao said: "The concubine knows. I don't know if His Royal Highness will stay in the palace of the concubine or the palace of the concubine's sister tonight, and the concubine will be prepared. ”

Yun Xi felt that today was the third day of Xiyi's entry into the palace, so he said, "Let's stay in Xiyi's palace tonight." Then he looked at Xi Yao's expression and said with a smile: "Jealous? Then you can wait for me in her palace with Xiyi tonight. ”

Xi Yao knew that he was joking, and bowed her head with a red face and said nothing. Yun Xi smiled and walked out of Wenyuan Pavilion.

When he arrived at Dongnuan Pavilion, Yunxi asked Lian Zining to turn out the records about North Korea and give it to him. Because Qi Tai's family is in the capital, and his wife Yu Minyue has just become pregnant, Yun Xi does not let Qi Tai work the night shift, and Lian Zining, Guo Zhen and others take turns on duty.

Yun Xi looked at the Goryeo-Joseon file for a while before returning to the palace to sleep.

For more than a month after that, Yun Xi either handled things in the Wenhua Hall every day, read instructions and recitals, or went to lecture in the lecture hall, or met with the students of the previous lecture hall who were stranded in Beijing to appease them. At night, it is with Xi Yao or Xi Yi in love.

Every day, I will find time to stay with Xi Yao and the others, talk quietly, and talk about all kinds of things. Yun Xi found that Xi Yao was very much in line with his idea of his ideal wife, and he liked Xi Yao more and more, and his relationship with Xi Yao was getting better and better.

============================================================

On the ninth day of June, the old royal palace in Seoul.

At this time, Li Chenggui was discussing political affairs with his son and concubine.

Li Chenggui (Note 1), who had changed his name to Li Dan, knelt on the couch and said to Li Boqing, a kneeling colt below: "How is the new palace that the widow asked you to supervise is being built now?" ”

Shangdangjun Li Boqing replied: "Returning to the king, the main body has been built, with a total of 330 pavilions and more than 5,000 houses, covering an area of 126,000 square meters (about 57.75 hectares, 1/76 of the Beiping Imperial Palace). The palace is only covered with lacquer, which has not yet been finished. The minister wanted to ask the king to give the name of the new palace. ”

Li Chenggui thought for a while and said: "There is a cloud in the ancient "Book of Songs" of the Ming Kingdom: 'The gentleman is ten thousand years, Jieer Jingfu. The new palace will be called Gyeongbokgung Palace. ”

Li Dan's sons, who were sitting below, immediately praised the name in unison. Li Chenggui also knew that they must say yes, and he himself thought the name was good, so he just looked at them with a smile.

Then Li Chenggui picked up a fold and said: "Yesterday, the envoys of the Ming Kingdom came to the royal capital, and said that the grandson of the Ming Emperor will go to the north of the Ming Kingdom next month to inspect it, and asked me if I have time to meet the grandson of the Ming Emperor, what do you think?" ”

Fu'an Jun Li Fangfan (Note 2) said: "How can the king go to meet the grandson of the emperor of the Ming Kingdom! Although the Ming Dynasty is big, my North Korea is not muddy, so I should let that Zhu Yunxi come to my Seoul Palace to meet me. ”

Of course, Li Chenggui was very happy to hear such words, but he still scolded with a straight face: "Don't talk nonsense." The status of the imperial grandson of the Ming Kingdom is above the widow, how can he come to visit the widow. ”

Huai'anjun Li Fanggan said: "No matter what, my father is old, how can I stay away from the royal capital. It is better to send another capable envoy to meet him. ”

Li Chenggui shook the fold in his hand and said: "The Ming Emperor's fold also said: 'If the widow can't make the trip, he will send the prince to the capital of the Ming Kingdom on the Zhengdan of next year. 'Which of you would like to go to the capital of Ming Kingdom on New Year's Day next year?' ”

Jing'anjun Li Fangyuan said: "Father, the son is willing to go to the capital of the Ming Kingdom. ”

Li Chenggui looked at him in surprise. Now Li Chenggui is fortunate to succeed the Kang family, and wants to establish the youngest son Li Fangshuo born to the Kang family as the son. And several sons of his ex-wife Han are very dissatisfied with this, especially led by Li Fangyuan. Now why did he go to the capital of the Ming Kingdom at this critical moment?

But no matter what he thinks, being able to send him out at such a critical moment can greatly reduce the difficulty of canonizing Li Fangshuo as the prince, so let him go to the capital of the Ming Kingdom. Li Chenggui thought.

So Li Chenggui said: "Since you took the initiative to ask Ying, then send you to the capital of the Ming Kingdom." Li Fangyuan promised.

Then Li Chenggui said: "The holy decree of the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom also asked us to hurry up and send the disrespectful Zheng Daochuan who drafted the congratulatory note to the Ming State at the beginning of the year to the Ming Kingdom for trial, what do you think?" ”

The youngest son, Li Fangshuo, said: "Father, Zheng Daochuan is an important minister of our North Korea, how can he be sent to trial with a word from Emperor Ming?" sent Mr. Zheng and others, who were polishing the text, to say that Zheng Dao's infectious disease could not be carried out. After a pause, he muttered again: "Liu Xun is too, if you are asked, you can just say the congratulatory table written by a few people, why bother to say Zheng Daochuan." ”

Others have no objection because Chung Do-chuan is an important minister of North Korea. The father and son, Weng and son-in-law discussed a few more things, and Li Chenggui said: "The widow is tired today, so let's stop here today." And they withdrew.

============================================================

Note 1: Li Chenggui changed his name to Li Dan after establishing himself as king in the 25th year of Hongwu (1392). For convenience, the text is still called Li Chenggui.

Note 2: Other princes of Joseon except for the prince, as well as important ministers of the imperial court, will be canonized as so-and-so.
