Chapter 8: The Fat Man

Yanwang Mansion is extremely magnificent, walking along the road at the door, Zhou Xingben looked at the towering wall of this slippery place, and was very emotional in his heart.

The real power prince is different, this Yan Wangfu is built like a small palace.

"Wait here." His thoughts were flying out of the sky, and a voice pulled Zhou Xing's soul back, and when he looked up, he saw that it was Yao Guangxiao, so he arched his hand and said, "Yes." ”

Yao Guangxiao is the number one person next to Zhu Di, and he belongs to the role of the secretary general, if he doesn't have a good relationship with this guy, he doesn't want to be able to mix around Zhu Di at all.

Although he is now on the boat of Yan King Zhu Di, Zhou Xing doesn't know what role he can play. If you enter the think tank team, it is necessary to have a good relationship with Yao Guangxiao.

Zhu Di got off the horse, and someone from the palace hurriedly took the horse to the side to wait. After Zhu Di walked in for more than ten zhang, Yao Guangxiao entered the house, and Zhou Xing hurriedly followed.

After entering the door, Zhou Xing curiously peeked at the surrounding scene. There is a large shadow wall facing the door, blocking the idea of passers-by outside the door from getting a glimpse of the whole picture of the prince's mansion. Zhu Di entered from the right, but Yao Guangxiao took Zhou Xing to the left. The ground is paved with smooth bluestone slabs, and the path leads to every courtyard of the entire mansion. Flowers and plants are planted next to the bluestone pavement, and it is thriving. In the distance, there are pond rockeries, pavilions and pavilions, stretching endlessly.

A teenage little fat man walked out with the support of two subordinates. Zhou Xing saw him inadvertently and was immediately shocked.

"Look at the face, thirteen years old, but how can you be so fat? It is estimated that it is two hundred pounds up. That's less than 1.4 meters tall. ”

He is five feet long, but his waist is eight feet, which may be very appropriate to describe this fat man.

When the little fat man saw Zhu Di passing by him, he quickly stood up straight, got rid of the support of his subordinates, clasped his hands, bent over, and made every move, meticulously.

"I've seen my father."

With his body shape, it is not easy to make this set of actions.

However, Zhu Di just nodded slightly, mumbled, as a response, and then did not stay, and left directly.

This turned out to be Zhu Di's son. But looking at Zhu Di's attitude, he doesn't seem to like this son.

This fat man seems to be well-read, although he is a little fat, but he is very bookish, like a literati. Zhou Xing inexplicably had a good impression of him, and he didn't understand why Zhu Di didn't like this son.

In fact, the reason why Zhu Di doesn't like him is very simple.

This guy is too fat.

Zhu Di has been fond of martial arts all his life, riding horses and archery, all of which are proficient. And this son is too fat, he has to be supported when he walks, not to mention any martial arts, he barely learned archery, but he is also a standing pile output, and he can't play all kinds of subtleties of archery. Naturally, Zhu Di didn't like him.

Yao Guangxiao returned the salute to the fat man and said, "Yao Guangxiao has seen the eldest young master. ”

Gentleman? The firstborn? Zhou Xinghu's body was shocked, and he was about to learn from Yao Guangxiao to do the same, but he glanced at the others, and he didn't seem to have any intention of making a move, so he quickly stopped.

I don't know if it's because this young master really doesn't welcome him, or because there is no such rule.

Of course, Zhou Xing didn't understand anything about these details, so he could only act on the opportunity.

The fat man was no longer surprised by this situation, but he was about to leave, but he noticed an unfamiliar face in the crowd, and his eyes lit up.

He saw Zhou Xing.

These people in Yanwang's Mansion are very familiar to the fat people, but Zhou Xing has never seen them, and Zhou Xing's dress is a white ding. He was naturally curious, and he didn't understand why Zhu Di would return to Yanwang's Mansion with such a person.

Walking through the front yard, Zhu Di suddenly stopped, and Yao Guangxiao hurriedly greeted him. Zhu Di said: "Find him a place to live." ”

His tone was so flat that it was hard to fathom what he was thinking. Yao Guangxiao nodded slightly, and then when Zhu Di left, Yao Guangxiao turned around and said to Zhou Xing: "You live in the West Wing for the time being, and I'll let someone clean up a room for you later." Don't walk around the house at will, waiting for dispatch at any time. ”

"Okay." Zhou Xing should inherit it.

As long as you enter the Yanwang Mansion, it doesn't matter where you live. Zhou Xing even felt that he needed some time to recall some historical information about Zhu Di.

Afterwards, Yao Guangxiao said to a family member standing next to him: "Zhao Si, you can clean up an empty room for Zhou Xing for him to live in." The piece of Grace Garden. ”

Because the Yanwang Mansion occupies a huge area, even the wing rooms have many places, and they also have specific names, different names, representing people with different identities to live.

The Grace Garden is a level higher than the ordinary side rooms where people live.

This person named Zhao Si arched his hand and said, "Yes." ”

Yao Guangxiao followed Zhu Di into the courtyard inside, and the entourage of King Yan also dispersed, and Zhao Si said to Zhou Xing: "You come with me." ”

Zhou Xing saw that Zhao was not young for four years, so he smiled slightly, bowed his hand, and said, "Then it's over." ”

Zhao Si has been an errand in this Yanwang Mansion for many years, his eyesight is very good, and all kinds of rules are clear, he seems quite enthusiastic about Zhou Xing, a guest who pays special attention to living in Yayuan. Because, in Yanwang Mansion, not everyone is qualified to come in and live in Yayuan.

It was the "Tianzi No. 1" room in the lower room.

"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, just call me the fourth." Zhao Si smiled and led Zhou Xing to the direction where Yayuan was.

Zhou Xing smiled: "Then I will call you the fourth uncle." "Zhao Si is close, but Zhou Xing can't help but know how to lift.

After walking a few steps away and out of everyone's sight, Zhao Si asked sideways, "I don't know where Gongzi is?" ”

Zhou Xing didn't hide it either, and said, "Local." ”

Since the crossing has been mixed on the dock, it should be considered local. As for the ancestral home or something, Zhou Xing didn't find this information in the memory of the previous host.

"Natives? Kissing? Bring the cause? Zhao Si frowned slightly, the three words "local" made him a little difficult to judge.

If you say a Fengyang, then it's obviously an old relative.

Zhou Xing said with a smile: "I don't have a relationship, I don't have a reason, to be honest, I don't know what His Royal Highness King Yan likes about me." Confused. ”

Zhao Si was slightly stunned, and then said: "King Yan has always had a deep meaning in doing things, since your King Yan summoned you in, he naturally has his reasons." If you listen to your instructions and don't do anything wrong, then you'll be fine. ”

This Zhao Si's heart is still very good, Zhou Xing was grateful, and said, "Thank you for the teachings of the fourth uncle." ”

The two of them met in Pingshui, there is a saying, helping you is love, not helping that is also the duty of others, since people have helped you, you must naturally keep it in mind.

"Young man, he is quite knowledgeable."

Zhou Xing said with a smile: "It's not strange to have many people. ”

When he arrived at Yayuan, he found the largest empty house, and Zhao Si began to help Zhou Xing clean up. Where can Zhou Xing watch from the side? Naturally, he was busy, but in half an hour, the house was already cleaned up.

Zhou Xing can take the initiative to help with things, which naturally makes Zhao Si have a better impression of him. There were also people who came to live in the wing room before, and when Zhao Si cleaned up the room, those people relied on the fact that they were invited by Yanwangfu, and would rather watch from the side than make a move.

"Alright, I'll go to the storeroom and get the futon later, and you'll be able to stay here. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me. Zhao Si said with a smile.

Zhou Xing took out a small piece of broken silver and said, "Fourth uncle, thank you for taking care of it." ”

Seeing the silver, Zhao Si had a blank face, and said busily: "Keep it away, there is no such thing in the Yanwang Mansion." ”

Zhou Xing was taken aback, quickly collected the money, and said, "Then there is a chance to invite you to drink another day, this is always okay." ”

Zhao Siyi was happy and said, "That's okay." Okay, you go and see what the shortcomings are, and come to me directly if you have something. ”

As soon as Zhao Si left, Zhou Xing entered the wing room where he temporarily lived. This wing room is about three zhang square, opposite the door is a carved window, in the left corner of the window is a bed, on the right there is a bookshelf, put a few books, there is a long table, on the table is full of pens, ink, paper and inkstones, a chair against the wall.

Although the furnishings are very simple, Zhou Xing is already very satisfied. At least it doesn't cost you anything to live in, doesn't it?

After looking around the room, Zhou Xing went to the warehouse to get the futon again, and sat at the desk. When I saw that there was a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, I got some water and sharpened the ink.

"Who is this little chubby dun? Who is Zhu Di's eldest son? Think about it, the generation of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, what did I memorize before? ”

Zhou Xing thought while grinding ink, his brows furrowed into a Sichuan character.

After grinding the ink, he also remembered, so he said to himself: "I remember, it seems to be 'Gao Zhan Qi sees You, Hou Zai Yi Changyou, Ci and Yi Bo promote, Jian Jingdi Xianyou'." So what is this eldest prince Zhu Gao? I knew a Zhu Gaochi, who was later Ming Renzong, who took over Zhu Di's position. The last wasteland of the Ming Dynasty happened to be Zhu Youxiao. ”

"I'll go, eldest young master, it won't be Zhu Gaochi of Mingrenzong, right?" Zhou Xing suddenly shuddered. This little fat man is the future emperor? It's really unseemly!

Zhou Xing speculated from blood, didn't he learn it in history class, there is a primogeniture inheritance system, and it is said that the first son born to the queen is the future emperor.

According to common sense, the queen should be her first wife, right? Then, this first child must have been born with the first wife, right?

Theoretically, this is the case, but there are too many cards that do not follow the routine in history, and Zhou Xing is naturally not sure whether his speculation is correct.

"If that fat man is Zhu Gaochi, then I will have a good relationship with him, which will naturally be of great benefit to me. But Zhu Di doesn't seem to like him now, and he is not sure what will happen next. It's better to think of a way to ask the little fat man what his name is. ”

Outsiders ask the master's name, and that's a big taboo. Zhou Xing can't ask blatantly, this matter has to pay attention to a strategy.
