246 Concubine Lee
Turning big things into small things and small things into small things is what many people are used to.
It is also the golden mean that the Chinese nation has always pursued.
After Jiajing's statement, under Zhu Xizhong's thunderous means, the Jinshan Night Festival incident that was once noisy was finally calmed down silently, after all, the ancient news was blocked, and the people did not see any real evidence, all of them were hearsay.
It's okay to kill time when you're bored, but when you see that you chew your tongue and eat a lawsuit, especially when you see those cases of being arrested by Jinyiwei for talking nonsense, they are silent one by one.
The rumors subsided, and Jin Yiwei also secretly purged King Jing's forces, King Jing's last few strongholds in the capital were uprooted, and the capital quickly returned to calm, and Yu Jin once again took on the role of accompanying the little scholar, entering the palace of King Yu to accompany King Yu to study.
"Yu Xiaoshu is good."
"Yu Xiaoshu, the prince is listening to Yuxuan waiting for you, please here."
"It rained yesterday, and this place is slippery, Yu Xiaoshu, you have to be careful."
As soon as he entered Yuwang's mansion, Yu Jin felt one thing: his status had risen again, whether it was an official, a eunuch or a palace maid, he greeted him with a smile, and when he met a concubine of King Yu on the road, he also greeted him softly.
Felt at home.
It was a little strange at first, but it soon became apparent.
The people of Yuwang's mansion, the future of their lives is closely related to Yuwang, and they have helped Yuwang a lot several times, especially when they confessed their relatives by blood, their timely appearance can be said to have saved Yuwang's political life, so these people regard themselves as heroes.
It feels good.
Zhang Juzheng had not finished dealing with the errand of Guozijian, and after the lecture was postponed, King Yu set up a small banquet in Tingyuxuan in the back garden to personally thank Yu Jin, a great hero.
"Huh. It's "
Yu Jin hadn't walked to Tingyuxuan yet, and when he saw that there were still female dependents on Tingyuxuan from a distance, he couldn't help but say in surprise.
When I go to Yuwang's Mansion on weekdays, I mostly accompany him, and I have been waiting in the side hall for a long time, and I rarely set foot in the harem. On weekdays, except for the palace maids, I haven't seen a few women, although King Yu is a good woman, but those beauties, Yu Jin really didn't see one.
Suddenly, seeing a woman who was obviously different from the palace maid and richly dressed, Yu Jin couldn't recognize it for a while.
"Hehe, Yu Xiaoshu, the one sitting is Princess Chen, she is the princess's concubine. And standing behind Princess Chen was Concubine Li. When the eunuch He Gonggong who led the way heard this, he was very enthusiastic to explain to Yu Jin.
After that, he lowered his voice and said: "Concubine Li is the biological mother of the little prince, she was originally from the capital, and she was promoted to concubine after giving birth to the little prince. This is not to take Yu's school book as an outsider, hehe. ”
Yu Jin is the school book. It's not because of that money, but also because of the reason for doing more on weekdays, and he has always been generous, and the people in Yuwang's Mansion have a good impression of Yu Jin.
There is no need to ask, Grandpa He took the initiative to explain.
The princess and the side concubine are here?
Yu Jin was a little flattered for a while.
Yuwang is so beautiful, he has a good baby. Born in the emperor's family, his life was full of blessings, and in the end he also died under the pomegranate skirt, and in his life, there are three women who are very important: one is the Changping Li family. Jiajing was the concubine chosen by King Yu, born Xianhuai Prince, after the death of her son, she became depressed and fell ill, and died in April of the 37th year of Jiajing; The second is the Tongzhou Chen family, Jiajing was the step-concubine of King Yu in September of the same year after the death of the Li family in Changping, but unfortunately she was weak and sick, and she never came out.
The last one is the Li family of Miao County, Xiao Wanli's biological mother, she was originally a palace maid, and after being favored by King Yu, her mother was promoted to a side concubine by virtue of her son.
The current Xiao Wanli doesn't even have a name, let alone Concubine Li, because her status is too low, she can't share the table with King Yu, Princess Chen and her son, so she can only wait behind her.
did not sit on the dragon chair, King Yu is still King Yu, although the current Li family is gorgeous, but in the eyes of Princess Chen of King Yu, she is a well-dressed palace maid.
In ancient times, the hierarchy was strict, and even the Li family, who gave birth to a son, could not be changed.
The corners of Yu Jin's mouth rose slightly, and he didn't comment more, but said to Gonggong He with a smile: "Gonggong Xie reminds." ”
As he spoke, a huge silver tael had been stuffed through.
"Yu Xiaoshu is this, it's too outward." Gonggong He smiled, and in the middle of pushing, the ingot of silver had been put into his sleeve.
The movements are not generally skillful.
Yu came in to listen to Yuxuan, and immediately saluted King Yu, but only halfway through, he was helped up by King Yu himself.
"This is not a public court, so it's exempt."
"Lord Xie" Yu Jin turned his head to look at it, pretending not to know and said, "Who is this?" ”
King Yu pulled Yu Jin and said with a smile: "This is the concubine of this king." ”
Yu Jin immediately saluted: "The lower official has seen the princess Niangniang." ”
Princess Chen's face is very delicate, just like the fairy who walks down in the portrait and does not eat the fireworks of the world, her face is a little pale, and there is a kind of morbid beauty that the ancients admired.
can be selected as a princess, and her appearance will naturally not be bad.
Princess Chen was very kind, seeing her husband stand up, she was not good at sitting and talking, as soon as she raised her hand, she was immediately helped by the palace maid, and after standing up, she smiled at Yu Jin: "I heard the prince say that Daming has produced a great talent, and when I saw it today, I really danced a young man." ”
Yu Jin is considered a hero of Yuwangfu, and Princess Chen has no arrogance towards Yu Jin. ‘
"Don't dare, the princess is falsely praised, and the lower officials dare not be ashamed." Yu Jin said modestly.
Princess Chen nodded lightly, waved her hand and said, "It is said that a gentleman is like a jade, and this jade pendant is a gift to Yu Xiaoshu as a meeting gift." ”
As soon as the words fell, a palace maid came over with a silver plate, Yu Jin saw that it was a palm-sized jade pendant, carved with a lifelike horse, picked up and looked, the color was transparent, the flesh was ambiguous, it was definitely a piece of high-grade jade.
Obviously prepared early.
Yu Jin looked at it, put it back again, and hurriedly said: "Princess Niangniang, this, this is too precious, and the next official can't accept it." ”
This kind of jade pendant can be said to be a fine jade, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it.
Princess Chen said with a smile: "Yu Xiaoshu is kind to Yuwangfu, and has helped the prince solve problems several times, this is a little caution in this palace, and I hope that Yu Xiaoshu will not be disliked." ”
"Thank you, princess." Yu Jin took the jade pendant with both hands.
Having said that, if you don't accept it, you won't give face.
Princess Chen smiled, and sat down very elegantly with the support of the palace maid.
That action, a bit like the legendary weak willow Fufeng, is very beautiful and pleasing to the eye.
King Yu saw Yu Jin accept the jade pendant, and then patted Yu Jin on the shoulder affectionately and said, "I worked Yu School a few days ago, come, have a few drinks today." ”
This Yuwang really doesn't put the Li family in his eyes, and he doesn't even introduce it, it is estimated that in the eyes of Yuwang, the Li family is just a fertility tool.
Yu Jin didn't sit down, looked at the Li family who was standing behind him with his head down, and said with a serious face: "Lord Wang, this is"
Only then did King Yu come to his senses, smiled, pointed at the Li family and said, "This is the king's side concubine, Li side concubine." ”
"See the side concubine." Yu Jin said respectfully.
Others don't know, Yu Jin knows that this Li is the future Empress Dowager Cisheng, this low-born, but very strong heart, Wanli was only ten years old when he ascended the throne, too young, it is this Empress Dowager Li who listened to the government and assisted Wanli, she was stubborn and self-disciplined all her life, and with the efforts of her and Zhang Juzheng, the dying Ming Dynasty had the image of Zhongxing, and also allowed the Ming Dynasty to last for nearly a hundred years.
Empress Dowager Li taught her son that she was very strict with Wanli, and if she didn't do well, she would be punished for kneeling for a long time, and Wanli was also in awe of this mother.
Yu Jin didn't dare to make a bad impression on her.
Li didn't expect Yu Jin to salute her, and the number of gifts was not inferior to Princess Chen, so when she heard this, she hurriedly said: "No courtesy, please get up with Yu Xiaoshu." ”
Because of some suddenness, the Li family doesn't know how to call their own family good, and the concubine, concubine, official, and slave family don't seem to be suitable.
"Thank you, Concubine Niangniang." Only then did Yu Jin stand up.
Although the incident happened suddenly, Li was a strong woman after all, so she quickly calmed down and said to Yu Jin with a smile: "Listen to the prince, Yu Xiaoshu is a rare talent in my Ming Dynasty. ”
"When we meet for the first time, I don't know what to send, I prepared two palace brocades for Yu Xiaoshu, if you don't dislike it, I will invite Yu Xiaoshu to go out of the house for a while, and take them away."
King Yu has not yet ascended the throne, because of Jiajing's prejudice and ignorance, Xiao Wanli has not yet taken the name, and the status of the Li family is needless to say, she can only be regarded as a more decent palace maid, it is estimated that she did not prepare any gifts, but she is clever, saying that she prepared two palace silks for Yu Jin as a meeting gift, and then took them away when she left.
I guess I have to prepare after I go back.
The adaptability is first-class.
Yu Jin dared to dislike it, and immediately responded: "Xie Niangniang." ”
King Yu nodded secretly, thinking that Yu Jin was indeed a humble gentleman, and he was courteous for several weeks, so he pulled Yu Jin to sit down.
Xiao Wanli was very sensible, and after seeing Yu Jin sitting down, he immediately said to Yu Jin: "Yu Xiaoshu, did you promise to make fun for me?" ”
As he spoke, a pair of big eyes stared at Yu Jin, and little stars appeared in both eyes.
When Princess Chen heard this, she gently stroked Xiao Wanli's head and said, "Wang Er, Yu Xiaoshu still has a lot of official business to deal with, and I can't spend too much time playing with you." ”
Yu Jin was a little embarrassed, he had promised him last time, but he forgot it for a while.
"Little prince, wait a minute, it's almost done, as soon as it's done, I'll send it to you immediately."
"Okay, you said, you can't lie to children." Xiao Wanli opened his eyes wide, bit his fingers and said.
"Definitely, definitely." Yu Jin nodded again and again.
King Yu laughed, hugged Xiao Wanli in his arms, kissed him twice, and then said with a pampered face: "Wang Er, if Yu Xiaoshu doesn't give him a good job, my father will punish him for you." ”
"Hee-hee, thank you, Father." Xiao Wanli said with a smile.
Yu Jin just sat down, and found that Li was still standing behind, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Concubine Niangniang, why don't you sit still?" (To be continued.) )
