Chapter 147: The East Palace Gives Gold

Xu Xun first came to the capital only two days, the first morning Xiao Jing summoned the master of ceremonies, and by the way, he also met Li Rong, the master of ceremonies, and then came to a Shuntian Mansion Ya Ban Yu, and at the same time he saw the eldest lady of Shouning Houfu, he was also honored to enter the eyes of Zhu Houzhao, the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and gave a number of secrets, and then came to visit the Confucian Temple of Guozijian, and Li Yifeng, the second person of the Fusi of Beizhen, cleaned up a number of potential enemies. As for the next day, he was even more beautiful, he went to the palace to see the emperor, and then he took a picture from a distance from the empress dowager and the empress dowager down, and also broke the palace rules and fed Zhu Houzhao a medicine in the Chengqian Palace, and was even almost named the No. 1 secret agent in the East Palace by His Royal Highness the Prince.

Although the life after the crossing has been thrilling, it is nothing compared to the two experiences. Therefore, Xu Xun, who was full of heart stimulation, was very happy, and finally calmed down in the next few days, he went to the military department to handle the customs affairs, and then there was no other news, so that he was finally able to go to see his new home with peace of mind, and in addition to the original furniture furnishings, he spent a little money to exchange some cheap and practical goods, and finally decided to move on August 14 before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Of course, Zhu Houzhao entrusted him, he did not slack off, that after interrogating Ah Bao in detail, he personally ran to Banqiao Hutong next to Xinkaidao Street in Beicheng according to the note that Huitong had asked people to throw before, and made that matter clear to Huitong. Knowing that Xu Xun didn't say anything to Xu Liang, Huitong was very excited, and patted his chest and packed the ticket to definitely find out all the eight generations of Zheng Wang's ancestors, and naturally, the three hundred taels of settlement fees that Xu Xun left behind also made him even more energetic.

In a blink of an eye, it is the tenth day of the eighth month. Fangyuan's money steward went to see Xu Xu in person, and learned that the fourth young master really wanted to stay in the Guozi Prison for at least three years this time, he finally gave up, whether it was Wang Shikun's uncle, or Xu Xun's father and son, the guest, he didn't dare to have the slightest neglect.

Jin Liu, who had been outside for nearly ten days, was already familiar with the surrounding roads, so he volunteered to sit in the driver's seat at this time, watching everyone move their burdens and rattan boxes one by one.

Wang Shikun and Xu Xun were standing at the door of the main room and talking. Originally, the three of them went to Beijing, but now Xu Xu went to Guozijian, and as soon as Xu Xun moved away, he was naturally bored when he stayed in Fangyuan alone. So, half-truths and half-truths complained about Xu Xun, and he said: "Hengzhu, I'm fine today, I'll follow you over to see your new home." If there is still a spare room, I may be able to bother you two one day, so that you don't have to suffocate here......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw the money steward trotting over, and his feet were fluttering and urgent. Before he got close, he hurriedly shouted: "Young Master Xu, uncle, someone is from the palace outside!" ”

"Someone again!"

Xu Xun and Wang Shikun blurted out almost at the same time, but one was lamenting and the other was gloating. However, the next thing Steward Qian said was to let the two stay there together.

"It's the people from the Prince's East Palace, who said that it was on the order of the crown prince to congratulate Prince Xu on his housewarming!"

Xu Xun, who was dumbfounded, suddenly remembered that the last time he saw Zhu Houzhao, he didn't mention when he would move the house! Although he didn't know how the little prince found out about this time, he still looked at the clothes on his body, and hurriedly went out with Wang Shikun. As soon as he came out of the second door, he saw the old eunuch standing there with a smile, who else was it not Liu Jin? However, this is not counting, among the four twelve or thirteen-year-old eunuchs behind Liu Jin who wore a small black gauze hat and a brown regimental collar shirt, Zhu Houzhao was among them, but compared with other people with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, his appearance was particularly conspicuous.

Not to mention that Xu Xun was stunned, even Wang Shikun opened his mouth wide. In the end, Xu Xun reacted a little faster, walked forward quickly and whispered to Liu Jin, "Father-in-law Liu, what's going on?" ”

"What's going on? Of course, I was ordered by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to reward things and congratulate Xu Xunwei on his housewarming! Liu Jin saw Xu Xun staring at Zhu Houzhao, so he lowered his voice and said, "Master Xu don't worry, this decree is approved by the emperor, and His Royal Highness will leave the palace quietly." I only said that His Royal Highness is a person under my name, and those little envoys are all newcomers who have just been transferred, and none of them know His Highness. There is also Zhang Yong outside with a few warriors of the Imperial Horse Prison, and nothing can happen! ”

The people around Liu Jin, the prince, were so bold, Xu Xun naturally had nothing to say, just looking at Zhu Houzhao's outfit, he always felt angry and funny. After all, the hats of other little envoys are all worn uprightly, but Zhu Houzhao's hat is somehow crooked, and the top button of the crewneck shirt is also scattered, which looks so funny. If others don't know that he is the crown prince, and now they see him like this lazy appearance, they don't know how to slander him in their hearts!

After saying this, Liu Jin saw that the old man who was obviously Xu Xun's father was surrounded by people, and when the people arrived, he immediately coughed dryly and said: "The crown prince's decree, Xun Xun Xun, loyal and honest, has a very good character, and now I heard that I have moved to a housewarming, and I will give you a hundred taels of platinum!" ”

Although this is not a formal holy decree, there is no need to put an incense case to open the middle door, but since it is the decree of the East Palace, everyone looked at each other for a while, and naturally they all knelt down, and this time it was suddenly a little messy. And Liu Jin glanced at Zhu Houzhao, and when he saw him shaking his head there, he immediately stepped forward with a smile and personally helped Xu Liang up, and then went up to scoop up Xu Xun and Wang Shikun one by one, and personally wrapped the two big ingots in red silk and gave them to Xu Liang, and then he glanced left and right.

"It's all polite, it's almost time, isn't it time to move?"

With this sentence, the moving process that had just been interrupted was immediately accelerated. And Xu Xun saw that Zhu Houzhao was looking around, as if he was very interested in Fangyuan, and the surname Suo gave Wang Shikun a look and asked him to accompany him, and he finally cleaned up his things. However, when he began to count the number of people, he found that Shen Yue didn't know when he was gone, this surprise was not trivial, and he went to the east wing to look for it again but found nothing, and immediately found Xu Liang who was supporting Ah Bao to tie a rope to the box.

"Daddy!" Xu Xun pulled Xu Liang aside, and then asked in a low voice, "Yue'er is gone, do you know where she went?" ”

The East Palace suddenly gave a hundred taels of platinum, and Xu Liang learned that a little eunuch beside Liu Jin looked like the crown prince of the dynasty, so he immediately avoided it, lest he couldn't answer what the East Palace asked. Hearing Xu Xun ask this at this moment, he raised his eyebrows, looked left and right twice, and sighed: "She left with Mother Li's Ruyi early in the morning, let me bring you a letter." ”

"Huh?"

Seeing that Xu Xun was shocked, Xu Liang hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, she is not for anything else, but because you have a different identity now, and you have walked in the palace, it is inevitable that people will be worried, and it is not good to be found that she is such a weakness." She asked Li's mother to set up a small shop that no one else could do, just in Mutton Hutong, which is only two or three alleys away from Fengcheng Hutong, which is very convenient, and I have already pulled her to see it first. Although it is a downtown area, it is very close to the West City Terracotta Division. That Mother Li didn't know that she used means to point a deputy commander of soldiers and horses, and it opened yesterday, but you and the monk were busy, so I didn't inform you. ”

"Daddy...... She is hiding it from me, and you are hiding it from me, when did you have been so colluded? Xu Xun was angry and funny, and when he saw that Xu Liang was a little embarrassed when he heard this, he sighed and said, "It's okay, I know that she can't be idle, so let her go if she likes to do this." It's just that if you are free, remember to send more people to take a look, lest this little girl do anything shocking. What happened on the Qinhuai River last time, I don't have the ability to bear it for the second time! ”

"Don't worry, you are busy with things outside, I have things at home, I love your little daughter-in-law very much, I really want to use my fists to see the truth, I don't think there are many people who can match me Xu Ba!"

Seeing that his father showed a bit of arrogance in a blink of an eye, Xu Xun couldn't cry or laugh, and he could only sigh secretly at the moment. Seeing that everything had been packed up, the money manager came to ask if he wanted to send the car, and Xu Xun naturally nodded. Turning his head to look at Zhu Houzhao again, he saw that the little prince was talking to Wang Shikun on the one hand, and his eyes were looking east and west, and his gaze was on the same page, and the master suddenly left Wang Shikun and ran over. Xu Xun saw that Wang Shikun made a relieved gesture to himself, and took over the errand of dealing with the prince as if he had to relay the baton.

"Your Highness, aren't you still sick......

"It's okay, today the father and the queen mother will go to Xiyuan Qionghua Island with the empress dowager and the empress dowager!" Zhu Houzhao grinned, unexpectedly proud, and then gave Xu Xun a thumbs up, "It's all your good idea, I'm full of pigeon soup these days!" But that's what happened after eating too much, and it was better than those potions. The hot moxibustion sentence of the court is just to make a show, and the emperor rewarded him with one hundred taels of platinum, I can't be angry, so I will ask for the surname to reward you like this, the idea is yours, what is he! ”

Xu Xun had to interrupt the smug Zhu Houzhao with a dry cough, and then turned the topic to the right path: "Your Highness, don't forget your true purpose of pretending to be sick." ”

"I can't forget, according to what you said before, I asked the queen mother to feed me soup...... You're really a bad idea, I'm not too young, I'm so embarrassed! He was embarrassed to say it, but Zhu Houzhao remembered the kind of loving and caring eyes that Empress Zhang had when she looked at herself, and couldn't help but regret her previous hearsay, so she approached Xu Xun and said, "What did I ask you to investigate, how did you do?" ”

"A slight eyebrow."

"Really?" Zhu Houzhao was suddenly surprised and delighted, and the joy was mentioned, "It seems that you are really the blessed general of this prince, Liu Jin and they have not had much news after tossing for a long time, you actually have eyebrows!" Ah, I also have news to bring you, Xing Anbo sent someone to assassinate you before, the father is angry, this will Xiao Daban should have sent someone to see Xing Anbo. The father also said that you are a good person, and I plan to make you an official. Hmm, Zhang Yong gave me an idea, saying that it was to imitate the old system of the Yongle Dynasty, reorganize the avant-garde of the government army into the prince's young army, and let you be a commander or something...... Ahem, you just have to wait anyway! ”
