Chapter 445: The Twenty-Ninth of the Lunar Month of Another Year
In the early morning of the 29th day of the lunar month, a team of dozens of people galloped into the capital from the north gate of the capital. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info They look dusty and tired. But the men at the head of the team were tired, but their faces were full of excitement.
At the head was a boy of eleven or twelve years old, looking around with curiosity on his face, and kept talking about something.
After a while, the team came to the yamen of the Ministry of Rites, and a person wearing a Ming Cong's second-grade official uniform got off his horse and walked into the yamen of the Ministry of Rites.
This person was very anxious, and when he caught a person, he asked, "Is the Ministry of Rites Shangshu here now?" ”
The person he caught was a little surprised, and replied casually: "Chen Shangshu is here now." Then he reacted and looked up to see who was so frizzy.
It didn't matter what he looked at, and he suddenly said in surprise: "Gao Xiang, why did you go back to Beijing?" Did Your Majesty announce that you entered Beijing? ”
Immediately, he denied himself: "No, no, even if Your Majesty announces that you will return to Beijing, you can't be the first to come to the Yamen is the Ministry of Rites?" Even if you are appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, it is impossible for you to take over right now. ”
The person on the other side is Gao Xiang, who was appointed by Yunxi as the right minister of the Qin domain. When he heard that the person who was caught by himself recognized him, he also raised his head and took a closer look at who it was, and then said, "I said, it turned out to be Brother Zheng, no wonder you know me." Why are you in the Ministry of Rites now? Could it be that Your Majesty has changed your official position? ”
This person who is called 'Brother Zheng' is Zheng Yi, the Taichang Temple Qing of the Ming Dynasty. Zheng Yi said with a smile: "It's not today or the New Year, tonight's clan banquet has nothing to do with foreign courts, but tomorrow's envoy audience and the ministers' banquet must be prepared, and now there are still a little details I want to discuss with Chen Shangshu." ”
"Anyway, why did you go back to Beijing?"
Gao Xiang said: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin sent me back. This time, the two countries in the northwest, Yili and the Mongolian Warat tribe, sent envoys to Beijing, and said something important, so His Royal Highness the King of Qin sent me back with them. ”
Zheng Yi asked casually, "What's the big deal?" ”
Unexpectedly, Gao Xiang said very seriously: "I can't tell you until Your Majesty allows it." ”
As soon as Zheng Yi saw his expression, he immediately knew that it was a very important matter, so he didn't ask.
Then the two of them exchanged a few more words, and Gao Xiang said: "Tomorrow is the time for the envoys of Fanguo to meet Your Majesty, I don't have time to talk to you more, and I will go to your house to look for you in the next few days." Then he hurried towards Chen Di's public house.
Zheng Yi didn't stop him, but just muttered softly: "Why are there so many things this year?" So many envoys from all over the country to meet? The Fan Pavilion of the Ministry of Rites is almost out of place. ”
===================================
Yun Xi got up early in the morning, got dressed, and suddenly didn't know what to do. Although it was also the lunar month a few days ago, Yun Xi dealt with political affairs every day, and today he was suddenly idle and a little unaccustomed.
Baoqin, who was sleeping last night, smiled and saluted: "Your Majesty, the concubines congratulate Your Majesty on your auspicious New Year." ”
Yun Xi smiled: "Okay." Then he took out a jade pendant from his body and said, "I gave you the New Year's money." ”
Although Baoqin's background is not high, the treatment of the concubines in the palace is not low, and she will not lose her temper for a jade pendant with shallow eyelids. However, she knew that Yun Xi was joking with her, so she pretended to be very happy and said, "Concubine thank Your Majesty for the reward." ”
Then the eldest son Wen Yao came over and saluted in a proper manner: "Long live my father's congratulations." ”
Yunxi took out a red envelope and handed it to him and said, "Yao'er is also auspicious." Then Yun Xi said: "But this is the New Year, what are you doing with such rules." Besides, there are only three of us now, just call Father. ”
Wen Yao Nuonuo agreed.
Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became a little not very good, Baoqin hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, let's go have breakfast." ”
Yun Xi said, "Let's wait a while." I'll punch a few times first. I haven't practiced martial arts much in the past few days, and my bones are crispy, which is not good. As he spoke, he walked towards the outside of the palace.
Baoqin hurriedly instructed Wen Yao a few words, and asked Wen Yao to follow Yunxi quickly.
Yun Xi punched in the courtyard for half an hour, pricked the horse step for a while, and then took the towel from Huang Lu's hand to wipe the sweat, and said to Wen Yao, who was walking on the other side: "This martial arts practice, you must persevere, especially now that you are only four years old, it is a good time to lay the foundation, and you must not slack off." ”
Wen Yao also put away his steps and agreed.
Yun Xi said, "Let's go to breakfast with my father." Then he walked towards the palace.
But Yun Xi hadn't walked a few steps when he suddenly heard someone say loudly in his ear: "Congratulations to the royal brother on all the best in the New Year!" Then several voices rang out one after another, "Congratulations to my father/uncle/nephew on a good new year".
Yun Xi looked back, and sure enough, it was the fourth sister Yun Zhi who was making trouble. At this time, she looked at Yunxi with a smile on her face. Yun Xi looked behind her and saw Baoqing, Min'er and Siqi again.
There is also a seven or eight-year-old girl, Yun Xi didn't recognize who it was at a glance, and after thinking about it for a while, she remembered that this was Zhu Xianqin, Zhu Rong's daughter.
Zhu Yu had a total of six daughters, the eldest daughter has married and now lives in the capital with Yibin, the second daughter and the third daughter died in Qingzhou, and the fourth daughter Zhu Xiancai was exiled to Yunnan.
Zhu Zhi sent all the remaining children of Zhu Yu to the capital, and Yun Xi ordered the little prince to be placed in the palace of the King of Qi, and Yun Wei, Zhu Ying and other princes in Beijing cared a lot, and took the two daughters into the palace to raise them.
The sixth child is only three years old, and Yunxi let Xiyao raise him; Because the fifth daughter Zhu Xianqin was a few years older, Yunxi raised her in Yunzhi Palace, which is the closest in age, and took care of Yunlan more.
Yun Xi deliberately said to Yun Zhi with a straight face: "The New Year's Day will be weird." also dragged them to make trouble, and carefully taught the children badly. ”
Yun Zhi knew that Yun Xi was not angry, but she was just deliberately pretending to be angry, so she smiled and said: "Brother Huang, I am congratulating Brother Huang on his auspicious New Year, but Brother Huang actually said that I was a monster, hey, I can't talk to Brother Huang in the future." ”
Yun Xi couldn't hold back his laughter, reached out and patted Yun Zhi's head and said, "You talk a lot." Then he took out a red envelope from his pocket and handed it to her.
Yun Zhi said even more happily: "Thank you, Brother Huang." ”
Yun Xi smiled: "Look at you, it seems that you have never seen money." ”
Yun Zhi smiled indifferently: "Of course, the things rewarded by the imperial brother must be accepted so respectfully and solemnly. ”
Then Yun Xi called Baoqing and Min'er over, and while distributing red envelopes, he said, "You can't learn from Yun Zhi." ”
Baoqing didn't care about what Yun Xi said at all, just reached out to take the red envelope.
Yun Xi sincerely teased her and said: "Hey, no, Aunt Baoqing, you are my aunt, you are all elders give juniors red envelopes, how can there be a reason for juniors to give red envelopes to elders?" As he spoke, he was about to take back the red envelope.
Baoqing was anxious all of a sudden, snatched the red envelope from Yun Xi's hand, and then said, "Then I'll be your niece." ”
Yun Xi smiled: "How can this generation change casually?" After a few more jokes, he let Baoqing go.
After that, Min'er took the red envelope from Yun Xi's hand and said with a smile: "Father, how can I be the same as the fourth aunt." But she secretly said in her heart: "The fourth aunt is not as good as me." ”
After that, Siqi took the red envelope very normally, and said respectfully: "Got it, uncle." ”
In the end, it was Zhu Xianqin's turn, and Yun Xi saw that she was cowardly, and said warmly: "How are you doing in the palace?" Yun Zhi didn't bully you, right? If someone bullies you, or shortens your food, you can tell your third sister-in-law or tell me, and the royal brother will punish him! ”
He said to Yun Zhi again: "Fourth sister, you must take care of Xianqin." ”
Yun Zhi said: "I know, my sister will definitely not let the fifth sister be bullied, and she will definitely not miss her things." ”
Zhu Xianqin himself said: "Brother Xie Huang cares. However, my sister did not bully me in the palace, and the three sisters and sister-in-law were very good to my sister, and they never broke anything. ”
Yun Xi said, "That's good. But if there is anything, you must find the royal brother and sister-in-law, and you don't have to worry about anything. ”
The reason why Yun Xi cares so much about Zhu Xianqin is that in addition to his superficial kung fu and his heart attack of loving beautiful girls, there are also political considerations.
Yun Xi will immediately divide Zhu Xianyi, the king of Qi, overseas, and in the eyes of some people, this is equivalent to distribution, so Yun Xi must set an example to show that in addition to the clan of Zhu Biao's lineage, he is also very concerned about the clans of other genealogies. And Zhu Xianqin is one of the models set up.
Yun Xi also set a model for a male clan as an example of his own care and love for the clan.
Yun Xi and Yun Zhi: "Have you had breakfast?" ”
Yun Zhi said: "Brother Huang, my sister came together and brought Xianqin to congratulate the royal brother on the auspicious New Year, and I didn't even have time to change my new clothes, how can I have breakfast?" Baoqing is the same, Siqi and Min'er have already eaten at their sister-in-law's. ”
Yun Xi said: "Since you haven't eaten, let's go eat together." With that, he led the group to the place where they were eating.
Baoqin didn't expect so many people to eat at her place, and the meal was not enough for a while, so she urgently asked people to do it.
Yun Xi let Wen Yao, Bao Qing and Zhu Xianqin eat first, and he chatted with Yun Zhi on the side.
While chatting, a little eunuch walked in and said something to Yun Xiqing. Yun Zhi asked casually: "Brother Huang still has political affairs to do today?" ”
Yun Xi said: "No, it's just that Zanyi is going to Beijing to celebrate the New Year." And Zanyi has now arrived in the capital. ”
Yun Zhi heard that it was a vassal king entering Beijing, so she didn't care, and said casually: "This year, Zanyi's nephew is also going to Beijing to celebrate the New Year." "That's it.
But Yun Xi wondered in his heart: 'What did he suddenly do when he came to the capital from Guilin?' Didn't you hear he was coming? ’
