Yun Xi rushed to the imperial city in a car. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info waited for Yun Xi to arrive outside the imperial city, put the car outside the Chengtian Gate, and led the guards to the Jinshen Palace, at this time it was already noon. The steward and eunuch of the temple immediately came up with a smile on his face and bowed. Yun Xi looked at the number of people at the entrance of the hall and felt that it didn't look like Lao Zhu was there, but he still asked, "Is Grandpa Huang in the palace now?" ”

The eunuch in charge of the Jinshen Hall bent his waist lower, and the smile on his face became brighter: "Back to Your Highness, Your Majesty left the Jinshen Hall before a stick of incense and went back to the Qianqing Palace." ”

Yun Xi immediately walked towards the Qianqing Palace. It didn't take a few steps to reach the Qianqing Gate between the imperial city and the palace city. After the Qianqing Gate, you will arrive at the range of Miyagi, which is the harem as the saying goes. Of course, the harem is a place where guards can't enter casually, so Yun Xi called a little eunuch to go to Wenhua Hall when he was in the Jinshen Palace. Yun Xi waited at Qianqingmen for a while, and Wang Xi and Wang Gong trotted all the way over. Yun Xi put the guards outside the Qianqing Gate, and took Wang Xi and Wang Gong and a few other small eunuchs to the Qianqing Palace, and Wang Jin stayed in the Dongnuan Pavilion according to the custom.

Wang Xi followed Yun Xi to the Qianqing Palace, and said suspiciously: "Your Highness has come back twice in half a day today, what is there to discuss with Your Majesty repeatedly?" ”

Don't say that Wang Jin and Wang Xi themselves have acquaintances in the palace, even if they have a dark look in the Wenhua Palace, there is no eunuch they know, and they know that this is the second time that Yun Xi came back today. Yunxi has not yet been crowned the emperor's grandson, and the travel ritual system is according to the princely system, but there are dozens of people in the full set of rituals! Now Yun Xi omitted those unnecessary honor guards for the convenience of travel, but there were more than 20 guards alone, unless they were blind, otherwise it was impossible for such a large group of people to go in and out of Chengtianmen without seeing it.

Yun Xi patted his head and said with a smile: "You don't understand, why do you ask so much?" After I left the palace this morning, did Concubine Lu make any moves? ”

Wang Xi rubbed his head and said: "After His Royal Highness left the palace today, Concubine Lu has not been out of Wenyuan Pavilion, we secretly asked the eunuchs who are familiar with Wenyuan Pavilion, saying that Concubine Lu has no special actions, but she has more time to worship the Bodhisattva; By the way, a female official from Wenyuan Pavilion took leave this morning. ”

Yun Xi listened, didn't care, and said, "You go back today and tell Wang Jin to continue to star." Let you screen the new little eunuchs, have you finished screening? ”

Wang Xi replied: "In just a day and a half, where can I finish it?" It's going to be a few more days. ”

Yun Xi said: "You pay more attention, if you can't finish it before thirty, see how I clean you up." ”

Wang Xi smiled and said, "How does Your Highness plan to clean me up?" Push me to the ground and hit the board? They both laughed.

Just talking and laughing, and after a while, I arrived at the Qianqing Palace (it wasn't far away). Yun Xi watched the little eunuch trotted in and stood at the gate of the Qianqing Palace and waited.

Lao Zhu was resting at this time. This person is easy to get tired when he gets older, Lao Zhu is also in his sixties, and his body and bones are not as good as when he was fighting, and now he has to rest at noon every day. At this time, Lao Zhu was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. Li Jinzhong quietly walked in and said in a low voice, "The Third Highness is now waiting outside the Qianqing Palace." ”

Lao Zhu opened his eyes. As a very capable emperor, although he was also curious about what Yun Xi needed to do to ask him for instructions, he knew that it must be something that Yun Xi himself was inconvenient to do.

Lao Zhu got up from the bed and instructed Li Jinzhong: "Tell me to pass the meal." In addition, he instructed the imperial dining room to add two dishes today and make them immediately; Let Yun Xi go to the dining room of the East Warm Pavilion. Then he walked slowly to the dining room.

Yun Xi was not surprised to receive the order to let him go to the dining room, after all, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon (12:00, 30 minutes a quarter), and it was time to eat. But Yun Xi looked back at a string of little eunuchs who were temporarily requisitioned from the Qianqing Gate and the Jinshen Palace, and felt that he should call a few more people from the East Warm Pavilion of the Wenhua Hall at that time. He thought about it, but he still felt that he should not use the eunuchs who did not belong to him now, so he said to them: "It's also time to eat, a few of you send two or three people to the East Warm Pavilion of the Wenhua Palace to find a eunuch named Wang Jin and ask him to send a few people over, and then you will disperse." After speaking, he instructed Wang Gong and Wang Xi: "You two should also find a place to eat; and the eunuchs who are in charge of the food here order to eat. Then he stopped what Wang Xi was about to say, and walked into the dining room alone.

These eunuchs were overjoyed! Originally, they were ready to not be able to eat, but they didn't expect Yunxi to let them go back. The eunuchs thanked Yun Xi in their hearts, and knelt down to thank him. Then everyone competed for the opportunity to go to the Mandarin Palace. Just kidding, Yun Xi is the next definite heir, Lao Zhu is now in his sixties, maybe he will die one day, what an honor it is to be able to show his face in front of Yun Xi. And even if Yun Xi doesn't remember them, just have a good relationship with Wang Jin, and when Yun Xi succeeds to the throne and Wang Jin takes the throne, he can set up a relationship.

Only one of the little eunuchs did not fight. Half of it is because he is young and has no chance of grabbing opportunities, and half of it is because he is more introverted and will not express his kindness to others. Of course, Yun Xi is nothing, but it shows that he still pays attention to these eunuchs, and there are these eunuchs in his eyes, which all the princes and grandsons have never had, which is also the reason why the eunuchs are moved. 'If possible, I will repay you, Your Highness the Imperial Grandson (not a clerical error.' The eunuch named Zheng En thought so.

Yun Xi walked into the dining room, Lao Zhu was already sitting on the seat, the soup had already come up, the staple food and dishes had not yet been served, and Lao Zhu was drinking soup. Yun Xi saluted Lao Zhu and said, "Say hello to the imperial grandfather." ”

Lao Zhu looked up at him, and said warmly, "Yun Xi is here?" Sit down and eat with your grandfather; Although state affairs are important, there is no rush at this time and a half. ”

Yun Xi looked at a pair of chopsticks next to Lao Zhu, and felt that it should be prepared for himself, so he stepped forward, sat down next to Lao Zhu, and also served a bowl of soup, and accompanied Lao Zhu to drink it slowly. Then the staple food and dishes came up one after another, and the grandfather and grandson were like the grandchildren of a normal rich family, chatting and eating at the same time.

The food of the emperor in the early Ming Dynasty was still very simple, and the two of them were just six dishes and one soup, which was completely different from the system of sixty-four dishes later.

When Lao Zhu finished eating, Yun Xi also finished eating. Lao Zhu helped Yunxi and came to Dongnuan Pavilion, and then the official topic began. Lao Zhu sat down on the chair and asked, "Is there anything you can't decide to ask grandpa for attention?" ”

Yun Xi stood aside and replied, "Grandpa Huang, this time I don't want to ask you for attention. That's the case, don't I plan to take a walk with some rumors so that the common people can exchange less treasure money (about this part did not talk to the officials of the household department), I thought when I was in Tianfu that the most suitable thing to spread these rumors is the dark line of Jinyiwei, so I came to tell the imperial grandfather to ask the commander of Jinyiwei to come over, so I can tell him about this. ”

Lao Zhu really knew that Yun Xi had been to Ying Tianfu today, and he didn't have any doubts about it; At the same time, he also understood why Yun Xi didn't directly contact the commander of Jinyiwei. Lao Zhu then said: "Then call Guo Hongtao over, come here and say it to your face." Then let the eunuch pass Guo Hongtao to the Qianqing Palace to see the driver.

Then Lao Zhu asked, "When you walked into the dining room just now, I noticed that you came in alone. Didn't you bring the eunuchs you brought with you to the Qianqing Palace? How is it alone? ”

Yun Xi replied: "Grandpa Huanghuang, it's time to eat at noon, and I let the two eunuchs go with me to eat." ”

Lao Zhu said: "How can you walk in the palace without a eunuch by your side? Just a few eunuchs, what do you care about them? ”

Yun Xi knew that there was no way to communicate with Lao Zhu on this issue, which was really a fundamental difference in values, so he said "um" and wanted to end the topic.

However, Lao Zhu continued: "The eunuchs under your command are not against your will, and I don't want to deal with it directly, but you must pay attention to it, don't be too lenient with the people below, and the royal family must be strict." ...... "Yun Xi passed by with "Uh-huh, uh-huh".

But in the end, Lao Zhu said: "After you return to Wenhua Hall today, find a reason to beat the two people who came with you today for twenty boards, so that they can remember it for a long time." ”

Yun Xi was shocked. Twenty boards can kill people. He organized the wording and said: "Grandpa Huang, it was the grandson who asked them to go to dinner, is the punishment a bit too heavy for them, and I hope that Grandpa Huang will reduce the punishment." ”

Lao Zhu looked at his expression, and after a while, it was not until Yun Xi could barely withstand Zhu Yuanzhang's powerful aura that he said, "Then change it to twenty whips." But you must not be so lenient with your subordinates in the future. ”

Seeing this, Yun Xi estimated that it was impossible to cancel the punishment, so he had to stop. I secretly remember the lesson of this time.

The next time was embarrassing for a while, but Lao Zhu took out the fold to correct, and asked Yun Xi to come and explain, Yun Xi also listened carefully, and the unhappiness just now quickly disappeared.
