Chapter 14: Baowen Court

In the summer, the sky dawns early, and it is very fast, when the Rihua Gate on the east side of the Xuanzheng Palace, the rising sun is just blocked by the towering Hanyuan Hall in the south, and the pervasive sunlight still crosses the palace wall and sprinkles obliquely on the Xuanzheng Palace Square, throwing the shadow of a group of princes very long.

When I returned to Shaoyang Courtyard, I passed by the Hongwen Pavilion first, and seeing that it was almost there, Li Yun pretended to be very uncomfortable, and stepped forward to pull the prince's little yellow door, Wei Junzhen, and said, "That...... I had a bad stomach last night, so lead the way and find a place to solve it. ”

Wei Junzhen understood, but coughed lightly with a serious face, and turned his head to look at the prince. Obviously, he understood that Li Yun had something on his mind, Li Ning shook his head, and was about to speak, when Li You and the princes followed, looked at them with disdain, raised his chin to the sky, and Shi Shiran left.

"Ignore him! Forget it, I'll send you to Shaoyang Courtyard for my brother! But...... You can't fall behind in this homework, especially in the past few days, you must work hard, and if you make a little mistake, you will be grasped by someone with a heart, Erlang understands? Li Ning kindly persuaded.

Li Yun didn't think so, but he didn't object to it, normally, he must be honest after making a mistake, but in extraordinary times, the more careful he is, the more trouble he will be, and he will be tired of dealing with it at that time.

When you're on the passive, it's best to get ahead of your opponent with a quick combination of punches that will make your opponent dizzy and gain the initiative, and then you can take it in stride.

The reorganization of the palace city and the restructuring of the subordinate officials of the East Palace, these are the two heavy punches that Li Yun will take action, but these two things require the cooperation of the prince to justify it, and if something goes wrong, it is naturally the prince who pulls hatred, not to mention that this is a matter of cooperation and mutual benefit.

Returning to the study of the prince of Shaoyang Palace, Li Yun threw out "Please Reorganize the Palace City" to his brother at the right time. Li Ning took it and read it, pondered for a while and nodded in agreement. This matter is dominated by Li Yun, and the prince will hand it over on his behalf, if it is adopted by his father, the prince will have a name, but the decision-making power is still in the hands of his father.

The two of them also deliberated on the resistance problems that may be encountered when this matter was implemented, and met at the middle of the morning to meet outside the east side hall of the Zichen Palace, and then went to see their father alone after the end of the early dynasty.

Half an hour later, Li Yunmu sent the prince to the Hongwen Pavilion, threw Wen Shouyi a small bag of broken silver to dot it, and instructed him to deliver the gifts he brought to Tutu Chengxuan, and he could check them before they could be transferred to his mother Duan's Baowen Pavilion.

According to the rules of the palace, it is to be transferred to the provincial eunuch in the palace to the palace female official Shang Gong Bureau, but if it changes hands twice, I don't know if it is possible to present it to my mother's Baowen Pavilion intact. Transferred by Tutu Chengxuan, there are contacts and more friendships.

Still along the Jiacheng Road into the palace, led by the inner attendant, to the east door to enter the Zichen Palace, Li Yun asked Fu Nu to hold the small wooden box in front of the first to wait, only with Wang Ke'er with him, bypassing the Zichen Palace to the west of the Penglai Palace, including the Baowen Pavilion in the south of the Liang Palace. There are several groups of palace rooms in that area, all of which are the residences of some "concubines" with no name or low status, and Baowen Pavilion is only one of them.

This section of the road is not close, to the west of the Penglai Palace outside the palace gate, the guide to the door of the attendant to explain, and brought out a palace lady to lead the way, then walked on their own. Li Yun had no choice but to go in with the palace maid again, and walked a little north in a twist and turn, and finally arrived in front of Baowen Pavilion.

It's called a pavilion, and I really only see a small building hidden in the green trees, which seems to be only two floors, but the total area of this big mansion is probably not much larger than my own Li Wang Mansion.

The palace maid who led the way stepped forward to open the door, and an old waiter with gray hair came out of it, and when she heard that Li Yun was coming, she hurriedly called someone to go in to report it, and then gave the palace woman who led the way a handful of loose money to send people away, and then stepped forward to salute and said: "Brother Yun rarely enters the palace, hurry up and follow the old slave in!" ”

This old chamberlain is also the kind of caretaker for the elderly, Li Yun didn't say much, followed him all the way through the two doors to the door of the atrium, and saw a middle-aged woman in her thirties wearing a light red shirt, a dark green tunic skirt, and a light red shawl.

This is the mother Duan, Dezong Zhen was drafted into the palace during the first year, and was later transferred to the grandmother's palace, when Li Chun grew up to be out of the cabinet, her grandmother transferred her and the prince's mother Ji Meiren to serve together, and also lived with Li Chun in the Sixteen Prince's Mansion for a period of time, until Li Chun ascended the throne before moving into the palace together.

Duan's name is Wanlian, and her title is Baolin, which is the sixth grade, which is only higher than the lowest eighth-grade maid and seventh-grade maid, and can usually take care of some harem etiquette and other miscellaneous matters.

"The child has seen A-Niang! How is A-Niang? ”

Li Yun hurriedly bowed and saluted, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw his mother Duan walking forward quickly, looked at himself carefully, and stood up straight, but found that his figure was half a head taller than his mother, and he was suddenly a little cramped, and he didn't know what to say.

"Alas...... It's not easy for my brother to enter the palace now, A-Niang shouldn't have said you, but you lost your title this time, and you won't have money for food supplies from the temple in the future, how can you live. ”

Duan's voice was crisp and fast, pulling his sleeves, tilting his head slightly, but his eyes were full of pity, which made Li Yun a little uncomfortable, so he had to be relieved: "Ah Niang rest assured, even if you don't have this money, the child can be self-reliant, and sooner or later you have to earn this prince back, and give Ah Niang a higher title of Zhaoyi and Zhaorong." ”

"Yo...... Brother Yun is sensible, and he is really ambitious, okay! Sister Wanlian is going to be blessed! ”

Li Yun turned his head when he heard the sound, and saw a woman wearing a blue thin flower shallow collar shirt and a light purple long skirt appeared on the steps of the entrance of the middle hall, and her eyes looked at her with a kind smile, she was the prince's mother, Ji Meiren.

Because her son was made the crown prince, she also has a title, and her status is slightly higher, and she usually lives in Hanguang Courtyard in the south of Hanliang Palace, which is also close to Baowen Pavilion, and usually takes care of her mother.

Li Yun saluted again: "The child has seen Aunt Ji!" ”

"Brother Yun doesn't have to be polite! It's okay now! Ji Meiren replied with a smile, looked at her mother and said, "Sister Wanlian doesn't have to blame him, when he is young and frivolous, he always has impulses, and when he takes a concubine and gives birth to a child, he will know the difficulties of being a grandmother." ”

Li Yun smiled bitterly: "Aunt Ji is right, it's all bad children, so the mother is also frightened, Penglai Palace didn't do anything difficult, right?" ”

"Not yet, for the time being, thanks to Aunt Ji's care, it's not too much for Penglai Palace." Duan smiled slightly, and his plump and fair cheeks suddenly flashed with a pair of charming dimples, which were very sweet and lovely, no wonder he could also get the favor of cheap daddy Li Chun for a while.

Li Yun was stunned, and felt annoyed in his heart, daring to love that he looked like his mother, a man's face should be thin to be domineering, and having dimples is sunny and amiable, and he looks approachable, but he has no majesty, so he is really depressed.

Duan Shi pulled Li Yun's sleeve, remembered something, and said, "Alas...... My son finally came to visit, but he hung in the courtyard for a long time, Sister Ji also invited, Ke'er also stood, come in together. ”

Ji Meiren responded with a smile, and walked in front with Duan enthusiastically, muttering something quietly as she walked, and glanced back at Li Yun from time to time. Li Yun didn't care, and took Fu Nu and Wang Ke'er into the middle hall to sit down, and soon a palace maid brought refreshments and fruits.

Wang Keer picked up a pear and peeled it very skillfully, put it in a small saucer and cut it into four pieces with a knife, pinched a piece very carefully with his thumb and forefinger, and sent it to Li Yun's mouth diligently.

Li Yun looked stunned, turned his head and saw that Wang Ke'er's face was red, with a look of shame and joy, and he winked at himself with a strange smile, Li Yun almost fainted, is this little maid stupid, I have nothing to offer early in the morning, I really can't stand it, but a piece of pear was delivered to my mouth, so I had to stretch my neck and eat it in two bites.

"Kerr! Come here! ”

The intimate appearance of the two saw Duan and Ji Meiren smile with satisfaction, and immediately called Wang Ke'er over, not knowing what he was talking about, causing Wang Ke'er's little head to drop to the ground, and her little face was like a ripe red apple.

Li Yun suddenly realized, dare to love that her mother wants to hold her grandson, Wang Keer is trying to pretend to be fooled, the little girl is so stupid, she doesn't know to discuss it with herself in advance. I don't know if the prince's brother will also face such an embarrassment, he hasn't decided on a formal marriage, most likely the same.

Alas...... Men's troubles, as soon as they grow up, they will be urged by their parents to have grandchildren. This is even more important for the prince, because with the next generation there is more potential for competition. But she didn't understand anything about transferring such a small palace maid to herself, and it was too much to think that jade would become a good thing.

Well...... Xiao Xiaoniang is the princess of this king's preliminary decision, it seems that I have to strike while the iron is hot, and go to the willow tops next month, and people will make an appointment after dusk...... Oh no! I have to let Fu Nu go to Zhongshu Province first, investigate the old father-in-law's official calendar, and find out whether his home address is really worth marrying.

Born as a prince, this is a very important question. The mother's status is low, as long as she doesn't spoil her own affairs, if the wife clan is all crooked and shoddy, and she leaves Chang'an, they fall into the well in the rear, it will be a tragedy. But it's also unknown whether people can look at me, the imperial concubine.
