Just when the Queen Mother opened her mind and planned a "better future" for herself and Guan Zhuofan, there were also people in Beijing who were worried about their relationship.

"Someone" - quite a person, among them, there are two protagonists, one is the king of Xuan, and the other is Baojun.

After the military plane was on duty, as soon as Bao Jun left the palace, he boarded the car to go to the appointment of the king.

The post of the treat was delivered to Baojun's house yesterday. This is a rare situation. With the rudeness of the king, and greeting the officials under his command, it is rare to be so solemn. In the past, most of the similar situations were just sending guards to say hello. With the dignity of the prince and the identity of the fifth son of Xuanzong and the eldest uncle of the emperor, whoever gets the greeting must run over on time and on time.

Bao Jun's car did not go to the palace of Prince Xuan in the soju alley of Chaoyangmen Inner Street in the east, but went west, out of the inner city from Xizhimen, and went straight to the home of King Tang in the west of the city - Tsinghua Garden.

This Tsinghua Garden has a lot of origins. Originally, during the Kangxi period, the third son of the Holy Ancestor, Prince Cheng Yinzhi, was called "Xichun Garden" at that time. After Yinzhi was offended at the hands of Sejong, the garden was given to their sixteenth brother, Prince Zhuang Yinlu. Yinlu offended in the hands of Gaozong again, and the garden was returned to the royal family, and the Qianlong and Jiaqing dynasties were both royal gardens.

In the second year of Daoguang, Xuanzong divided Xichun Garden into two, with the east name Hande and the west name Chunze, and gave it to the third brother Prince Miankai and the fourth brother Prince Rui Mianxin. This is not that Xuanzong is particularly generous, but since Jiaqing and Daoguang, the financial resources of the imperial court have been declining, and it has become a problem to maintain the "Three Mountains and Five Gardens". Please "share the burden together".

Miankai has no heirs. Xuanzong is in charge. gave his fifth son Yi Yi to his third brother. Yi Cheng attacked the title of King Xuan, and naturally inherited this garden, which has been renamed "Xichun" by "Hande". After Wenzong ascended the throne, he wrote a plaque of "Tsinghua Garden" for his fifth brother, and "Xichun Garden" was officially renamed "Tsinghua Garden".

The original time and space, the later Tsinghua University, was established on this site, and hence the name.

Bao Jun's car stopped. The housekeeper of the Qinghua Garden in the palace of the king, named Lihai, was already waiting at the gate of the garden. He stepped forward quickly and lifted the curtain with his own hands. Bao Jun got out of the car, and Lihai slapped Qian'er who was extremely "side-style", and said with a smile on his face: "Slave please Lord Bao!" ”

Baojun has been to the palace of the prince in the soju alley of Chaoyangmen Inner Street, but it is the first time to visit Tsinghua Garden. The palace and the Tsinghua Garden each have their own housekeepers, so this Lihai. Bao Jun is the first time I have seen it.

Bao Jun casually handed over a small cloth bag and said, "This is my drink with the same people yesterday." The dozen or so golden melon seeds that you won, Gui Gangji took them, and gave them to the deputy head of the family! ”

Lihai laughed so much that his eyes couldn't see, and he slapped a beautiful Qian'er again, took it with both hands after getting up, and said in his mouth: "The slave is the slave's woman Xie Bao's reward!" The word 'Gui Gangji', the slave can't afford it, so the adults will call me 'Lihai'. My lord, please, the prince is waiting for my lord in the Guyue Hall. ”

Guyue Hall is a courtyard by itself, which is the study of King Xuan in Tsinghua Garden. As soon as I entered the Hanging Flower Gate, I saw the king of the king bareheaded, on a cold day, outside a thin cotton robe, covered with a fox fur out of the shoulders, standing under the eaves with a big grin, one hand behind his back, one hand turning two iron walnuts, "bang-la-la" straight sound. When I walked in and took a closer look, a button on the shoulder neckline was actually loosened.

Bao Jun stepped forward and knelt down to salute.

The king said, "Get up, where did you come from so much poverty? Don't think it's cold on the ground? ”

Bao Jun finally fulfilled the "national ceremony", stood up, and said with a smile: "The prince is so blessed!" ”

The king scolded with a smile: "Open your mouth and come to this set!" Am I a bird? ”

Bao Jun said: "The prince is full of red light, this garden is a blessed land, the prince is blessed here, this blessed person, blessed land, is not a blessing?" ”

The king laughed: "The left one is 'Fu', the right one is 'Fu', you mouth, you should rush to the overpass to say cross talk!" What a hole, fart! This garden, evil nature! ”

Bao Jun was stunned and said, "Look at what the prince said, how did you say it?" ”

The king said, "You don't know the origin of this garden. Whoever gets caught is unlucky! Except for the emperor, no one can hold it down! I'll break it for you: Prince Lao Cheng lived in, and it was bad in the hands of the Grandmaster; Prince Lao Zhuang moved in, and something bad happened in the hands of Master Gao. After more than 100 years, he has been doing the imperial garden, but there is nothing, and when the old prince lives in, it is broken again - hey, he can't give birth to a son, and he is gone! I had to be his son! ”

Bao Jun muttered in his heart: This "ridiculous prince", when he speaks, he really has no taboos and no obstacles.

Also, since he has passed away, shouldn't he be called Miankai "Amma"?

Seeing that his face was slightly different, the king smiled and said, "Now it's my turn—just because I said the wrong thing, since the eleventh year of Xianfeng, I have been idle until now!" Isn't this 'who's got on the and who's unlucky'? ”

The so-called "said the wrong word" means that in that year - the eleventh year of Xianfeng, when King Xuan and Su Shun were eating wine, they didn't know whether to borrow wine to cover their faces, or if they really drank too much, and said "The sixth man wants to rebel". Fortunately, Su Shun was really drunk at that time, and he didn't remember this sentence after he woke up. Otherwise, it is difficult to guarantee that Su Shun will not use this article to make a big deal about King Gong.

For this sentence, after the coup d'état in Qixiang, Cixi and King Gong refused to give the King of Dang a serious errand, which is what King Dang called "has been idle until now".

This matter is too sensitive, Bao Jun and King Gong have a very close relationship, and King Gong's complaints are not easy to talk about casually. He was hesitating, and the king's smile had become sly: "How is it, Bao Peixing?" Come into this garden and stay with me, are you afraid? ”

Bao Jun smiled and said, "The prince is blessed with all evils!" If I follow the prince, I will be able to rub the blessing of the prince - afraid that he is a bird? ”

The king was slightly stunned, and then laughed loudly: "I'm afraid that he is a bird—good!" Only by not believing in evil can we do great things! Bao Pei is a man! ”

After that, he patted Baojun on the shoulder and said, "Let's go, go into the house!" ”

Bao Jun gave him a shudder, thinking: I have heard that this prince is good at martial arts, and his hand strength is really not small!

entered the Guyue Hall, changed into civilian clothes, and came to the table.

The main course is a steaming lamb shabu hot pot, and the side dishes are no more than radishes and pickles. Baojun's home chef is extremely fine in drinking, even more than a prince, and such a meal is "rough" for him. But he knew that the king had never been particular about food, and sometimes, a few sesame cakes and two or two burning knives could pass the meal. Such a mutton hot pot, in the palace of the king of Xuan, is called "hearty".

Therefore, without hesitation, he pretended to be happy.

The king said with a smile: "Coarse tea and light rice, I don't know if you are used to eating or not?" However, I really can't get all those delicate things with the sixth brother and your gang! ”

Bao Jun sighed and said, "When the prince said this, it really made me blush. To tell the truth, when it comes to inquiring about the people, watching the wind and accepting rumors, and raising the dynasty to Zhu Zi, which one is comparable to the prince? is like the sixth master, the same heavenly nobles, but they can understand the mood of the people and taste the sufferings of the people, but they can't reach the prince! - In the end, it's all about this 'exquisiteness'! ”

The king was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "Damn, you dropped your schoolbag, I almost don't know what you're talking about!" But a few fair words! ”

Bao Jun's words are not considered to be touted.

The king has a rough temperament, but there is one advantage, when dealing with people, the lower the status of the other party, the less he has a fight. In summer, I often wear a coarse kudzu cloth short coat, bare arms, shake a big fan, sit on the Shicha seaside, and can talk to anyone; In winter, wrap an old sheepskin jacket, go to the lowest "big wine tank" in the Beijing City tavern, squeeze together with the coolies, use the wooden planks covering the wine tank as a wine table, drink and burn knives, and eat soup and belly.

No one would have imagined that this inconspicuous and vulgar man around him would actually be a prince!

On such occasions, all kinds of strange news can be heard, so when it comes to "inquiring about the people's suffering, watching the wind and accepting rumors", "understanding the mood of the people, and experiencing the people's suffering", this "lifting the dynasty to Zhu Zi", there is really no one who can compare with him.

King Xuan took a big sip of wine, his face slowly became gloomy, and said: "Just like you said, now 'above', one mind is how to please the clan, the suffering of ordinary banner people, she-hmph, where do they know?" ”
