The prince was grounded in the palace for three days, and when he came to the court today, the emperor thought that he would see a depressed prince, but he didn't expect that his fat son was not only not a little depressed, but as if he had won a compliment.

The ministers saw it more clearly: the prince arrived outside the door of the main hall in a soft sedan chair today, and walked into the main hall by himself without asking for help.

The military department Shangshu reported to the emperor that Mongolian soldiers had been found in several places in Mongolia, and he didn't bother to remember the estimated number, anyway, the emperor had already made up his mind, and it was only to increase his troubles in opposition, so it was better to think about what he could do well when he was in prison.

Looking at the fat prince's calmness, the emperor showed a pleased smile:

He is suitable to stay in the rear, and he will never experience the might and glory of the iron-blooded hero.

"Your Majesty, this year's spring season has been completed, the rankings have been discharged, and there are a total of 1,521 valid examination papers, and the number of people on the list is still determined by the emperor." The Ministry of Rites Kim Chunyu arrived.

"As is customary, take one-tenth, and let it be one hundred and fifty. On the first day of the next month, if the army has not yet set off, I will personally conduct the examination in the Fengtian Temple. ”

The palace examination is held once every three years, which is one of the important ways for the imperial court to select talents, and Emperor Yongle does it himself every time.

"Yes, Your Majesty. His Majesty is also requested to appoint the names of the officials who receive the papers, the officials who seal them, the officials who hold the papers, and the officials who read the papers. Saying that, Jin Chun handed over a list, Zhu Di waved his pen, drew red circles on several names, and threw the pen and said:

"Retreat!"

The prince happily went back to the East Palace, and he was relieved that his father did not entrust him to take the exam. Staying in Fengtian Temple for a day is not an easy thing to see.

After returning to the East Palace, Zhu Gaochi let the soft sedan chair go directly to the courtyard of Lan Cairen.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, the palace maid and the chamberlain knelt together, and the Lancai people in the house were pulling Hua Qiao to talk, and when they heard that the prince was coming, Hua Qiao hurriedly wanted to hide. Lan Cairen grabbed her and said:

"Hiding from what? You have come here today in the open, just in time to kowtow to your father. ”

Hua Qiao then remembered that today it was Lan Cai who called someone to find the county lord of Jiaxing, saying that he heard that Hua Qiao girl would be boneless, and asked her to help see her wrist, why she still couldn't hold things.

Although Jiaxing is a little strange, when did Lan Cairen hear about it, Hua Qiao nodded and said that she said it when she was chatting with the palace maid. Jiaxing said, "Okay, you go over for a while, and I'll look for you." ”

Zhu Gaochi entered the house only to find that there was another person in the house.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Wan'an!" Hua Qiao went to the East Palace a few times, and this was the first time she saw Zhu Di, thinking that he was her biological father, she couldn't help but "bang" in her heart.

"No courtesy. Which girl is this? How can it look familiar, but I can't remember the name. Zhu Di sat down on the soft couch and glanced at the buckwheat again.

"Since Your Highness looks pleasing to the eye, why don't you keep her with the concubine?"

Hua Qiao didn't expect her mother to say this, so she quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Zhu Gaochi and Li Lan respectively, and said with a smile: "Thanks to the love of the mother, the folk girl is used to being whimsical outside the palace, and she is afraid that she will be blind if she stays in the palace." ”

"Oh? Then tell me, how can folk women be imaginative? ”

Zhu Gaochi has always known that Ming women are the least free and righteous, which makes him a little curious.

Hua Qiao secretly scolded herself: What are you talking about, I see that you are still troublesome!

"This ...... Daming Women's ...... It really can't be imaginative...... But when all the horses are running, there will be no stallions and mares. Although she did not dare to laugh, her eyes flashed with happiness:

"My dad told me that women are just as important as men, but they have different abilities. For example, weaving and embroidering, sewing clothes, and raising young children, but even if they do things well, they are not respected.

Among the three aunts and six mothers-in-law, they treat women and deliver babies, but even if what they do is important, they are also not respected.

Men who are raised and cared for by women should use "Female Virtue", "Female Training", and "Female Precepts" to restrain women. In my opinion, it's just that men are afraid that there will be a few more Hua Mulan, Fan Lihua, Mu Guiying, and Liang Hongyu among women. ”

"Where did you get this weirdness!" Zhu Gaochi laughed, men restrain women because they are afraid that women will surpass themselves because they are stronger, this is the first time he has heard of this statement, and he then said:

"You have a point, there is at least one thing that only women can do, and men alone can't do it. That is, only your mother can give birth to you, and your father can't do it. ”

Seeing that her father was approachable, Hua Qiao couldn't help but feel a little kind in her heart. She and Lan Cairen quietly glanced at each other, and wanted to laugh in their hearts: Mother, Dad is praising you!

At this time, Jiaxing also came in:

"I've seen my father and Lan Cairen. Hua buckwheat, is Lan Cairen's hand good? Let's go out and have fun. ”

"Oh? Your hands hurt again? Zhu Gaochi asked with concern.

"It's okay. Hua buckwheat, then you can go out with Jiaxing. ”

Hua Qiao's heart was sour, and she knelt down in front of them, and said: "Today is the first time Hua Qiao has seen His Royal Highness the Prince, and she has the love of her mother, so Hua Qiao will kowtow to you again." Buckwheat farewell. ”

Seeing Hua Qiao and Jiaxing go out together, Zhu Gaochi took his gaze back and said with a smile: "This child named Hua Qiao is in love with Jiaxing, it is better to summon her into the palace and be Jiaxing's personal female history, so that they also have a companion." ”

Lan Cairen was bitter in her heart, she was the child of the prince, her own daughter, but she could only be someone else's daughter's subordinate, she didn't want to, and hurriedly excused herself:

"That kid just said that she was living well outside the palace, and she summoned people into the palace and wronged them."

Today, by chance, I kowtowed to my father and mother, and Hua Qiao has been happy when she left the palace gate.

"Buckwheat! What do you think? Don't see the carriage here? ”

When Hu Yanjin saw her enter the palace, he was always anxious in his heart, for fear that something would happen to him, so he personally drove the carriage to wait for her outside the palace gate early. Unexpectedly, this girl, who was beautiful, almost walked past the carriage.

"Jingyi! What are you doing here? Didn't you go to court? Oh...... By the way, he has also been back from the dynasty for a while. ”

Hu Yanjin stretched out his arm and pulled her up, and Hua Qiao got into the carriage.

"Did you see your mother?"

"Well, see me too...... Father. I've kowtowed to them! Hua Qiao said with a smile.

Hu Yanjin was so shocked that he almost threw off the horsewhip: "Huh? ...... Do you recognize him? ”

"No, it's just that I kowtowed seriously when I resigned. I know that's my parents, they're all living well together, why do I have to go to a place where birds don't dare to? ”

Hu Yanjin nodded seriously and said, "That's it, you still have to take care of the house and children for me, how can you have time to live in the palace?" ”

"Who's going to take care of the kids for you?"

"You. Didn't I give you all the money I sent? ”

"Huh? Just those rices? I don't want to take care of ...... for you."

"The silver ticket is also for you."

"I'll give it back to you when I get back!"

"I don't want it."

"You don't even want a silver ticket? So what do you want? ”

"I want you."

“......”
