Chapter 79: King Shou

Luoyang, Shouwang Mansion.

Several men were bored gathering together to chat, when they heard the sound of the opening gong, bent their hands and counted the gongs, knowing that it was the prefect who had arrived, they hurriedly dispersed and put on a loyal look. After a while, the prefect's guard of honor came to the door, Qi Xiaoguang hurriedly got off the sedan chair, and said to the doorman: "Qi Xiaoguang, the prefect of Luoyang, 100,000 people are eager to see His Royal Highness, please lead the way." ”

The head of the door on duty responded with a calm face: "Please wait a while, Lord Qi, and the villain will go to inform His Royal Highness the prince." ”

Qi Xiaoguang knew that these guys were deliberately playing with dogs. Usually encountered on the street, with their identity, far away from themselves is too afraid, really can't avoid it, so they have to prostrate on the ground. But when he was on duty, with the palace as a backer, he would put on this official face. Take a chicken feather as an arrow, the more villain you are, the more it will be like this.

At other times, people can only wait outside the door, and they will take the trouble to go through the door and come back to tell you: "It has been reported, please wait." You wait until you are impatient, and then beg them to go in and urge, and they will go in the door again and turn around, and come back to tell you: "Ermen has replied, the prince is taking a nap/meeting guests/going out of the court...... "You continue to wait." Until you come to your senses and signal your attendant to hand you a door bag, they will reach out and take it while saying, "How dare you take this?" Weigh the weight, it's too light to say "don't dare, don't dare" and resign, you continue to wait, think it's appropriate before you really go in and report to you. Everyone has seen a lot of this kind of trick, but you can only cooperate with them to sing the trick - no official will really compare with them. On the one hand, even if I inadvertently offend these villains, they are by the prince's side all day long, and I will mutter a few words to you at any time to give you eye medicine, and if you listen to it too much, the prince will inevitably misunderstand, because this little thing is not worth it; On the other hand, it is this bowl of rice that they eat. Some officials who know each other will open the way as soon as they meet, but they are only let into the door and sit in the wing room outside the second gate for a while.

Qi Xiaoguang, who was burning his eyebrows, was in the mood to play tricks with a few villains at this time, and he said: "You lead the way in front, and the official will follow you in." As soon as he mentioned the hem of his robe, he stepped up the stone steps.

How could a few guys realize the seriousness of the situation for a while, and their first reaction was: "Not good!" In the future, if others follow the same example, won't it cut off our way to wealth? So someone hurriedly opened his arms to stop: "My lord, stay here!" The palace is important, no trespassing! ”

With a "snap", Qi Xiaoguang slapped his big mouth and beat the guy up, "Bastard dog kills materials!" How dare you stop the court officials? Take it down for me, it's a real fight! ”

The people in the prefect's yamen shouted loudly in unison, but they were just posturing, and they stepped forward half a step under their feet, but no one really moved. Qi Xiaoguang's family members didn't have so many scruples, they only had the head of the family in their hearts, and they pounced forward like a wolf, grabbed the placket of this unlucky ghost and slapped him directly to the bottom of the stairs, and beat him with all hands and feet.

In the midst of the miserable cry for mercy, Qi Xiaoguang shouted at the stunned Yu Yu: "Dog, don't lead the way?" ”

Everyone was stupefied. I haven't seen it since I got out of my mother's womb, oh, no, I haven't even heard of it, a four-grade prefect has such a bold son! This Lord Qi used to be very talkative! Looking at this formation, it is not ...... Didn't you receive a secret decree - to copy the prince's house? A few years ago, the vigorous "winning the title" movement was suddenly remembered by everyone.

The person who reported the report crawled to the ground and ran inside, and the rest of the people who were still arrogant just now shouted in the blink of an eye: "My lord spare my life", and Hulala knelt on the ground.

Qi Xiaoguang didn't have the heart to deal with such a villain, and followed into the palace.

Shouwang Zhu Zhixun is the youngest son of the first emperor, he loves to laugh since he was a child, and he giggles and laughs when he sees everyone, so the first emperor feels that this dragon species is the most likable and very favored. It is even rumored that the former emperor has more than once moved the idea of changing the little prince to the crown prince, but each time he was resolutely resisted by the old antiques in the court. The old immortal tendons played on the ground: the prince is the foundation of the country, and changing the prince is to shake the foundation of the country, and the empire will collapse......

Actually, this is a superficial phenomenon. Those guys are all ghostly and ghostly, and they have been rolling in the officialdom for many years, and they are all old foxes with white hair, and they can blow a whistle when they pull one out, so they won't take the slogan they shout in their mouths seriously, they just want to win a "merit of support" - when the little prince was born, the power of the East Palace was already very large: although the three divisions of the prince (Taishi, Taifu, Taibao) and the three young (young master, young master, and young protection) are all false titles, they are all nominally auxiliary ministers of the East Palace, including the elder and the scholar in the court, There are also local powerful officials, and the prince will ascend to the throne in the future, needless to say, the future of these people is needless to say, the three grades of Zhan Shi Mansion and the four grades of Zhan Shi, and even the prince from the fifth grade of the horse washing has a great background, as well as the few attendants of the Hanlin Academy, the future first and second assistants have to be selected from these few! The overall situation is set, who doesn't want to stand on the side of the winning side with a clear banner? At this time, the more you shout hoarsely, the more likely you are to be remembered by the Holy Son of Heaven in the future! This truth is understood by fools, let alone this class of old fritters?

Of course, there must be guys who want to go off the rails with their swords and take risks, and write to support the reformation. But they are all some of the six department of the chief, the six departments to the matter and other small officials who can't do it, the biggest leader is just the Dali Temple's five-grade left/right temple Cheng, in the ministers "vain holy will", "private plots", "despicable villains" and other righteous and strict scolding, free of avoidance, descending, one by one gray head rat scurry.

However, the little prince Zhu Zhixun really has no ambitions, and only wants to be his own peaceful and happy prince. The noisy chickens and dogs jumped in the room, and people didn't take it to heart at all, and they just had two words: eat and play! was only ten years old, and he grew to nearly 100 catties (one catty in the Ming Dynasty is equivalent to about one catty and two taels today). When he was sixteen years old, the former emperor couldn't stand the chatter of the ministers, and when he ordered King Shou to go to Luoyang to become a vassal, Zhu Zhixun, who seemed to have no heart and lungs and could only have a shy face, weighed more than 200 catties......

In the case of the dynasty, the vassal king only had a noble status and enjoyed his old age, but did not have the right to govern the fief. In the case of King Shou, who was in Luoyang, the emperor nominally gave him 30,000 hectares of farmland, but it was impossible to allocate these many fields to him from Luoyang alone—in that case, the magistrates of Luoyang would have to drink the northwest wind. Therefore, Luoyang undertook 12,000 hectares, Shandong allocated 8,000 hectares, and the other 10,000 hectares should be allocated from the rich Huguang and put under the name of King Shou. Of course, these farms are fertile and good land, and the production is returned to King Shou for the royal expenses. However, those fields, and those people, were still to be managed by the magistrates.

Grandpa Tai's careful thinking everyone understands: As long as you are a descendant of my Zhu family, you will never worry about wealth and wealth.

Later, Grandpa Cheng added another article: Of course, the vassal palace must raise guards, but the number of people should not be too many, and the good people around them can be at ease under the usual scourge, and no one should think about expecting the palace guards to fight......

Everyone also understands in their hearts that Grandpa Cheng is taking himself as a mirror - Grandpa Cheng has 100% passed on the excellent genes of Grandpa Cheng's ruthlessness, not only that, but also bravely climbed new heights: no matter how ruthless Grandpa Cheng is, he will attack people with foreign surnames, and he will be like a kind old grandfather to his Zhu family. But Grandpa Cheng is not, kidnapping his brother and chasing and slashing his nephew, his stomach is ruthless enough, and the knife in his hand is hard enough!

That's how you have to live in this land.

So the destiny returned, and the ass of the fourth master's baby sat down on the dragon chair all the way.

In order to prevent the vassal kings from learning from themselves in the future, Leng Buding was unwilling to shout silently "Qingjun side" to covet the throne, and simply limited the number of royal guards, and made a rule that they were not allowed to step out of the domain for any reason without receiving the holy decree, and even if they went out of the province to worship their ancestors, they must be invited, especially not allowed to enter Beijing.

Until Chengzu usurped the throne, he was afraid that he would be judged, because of the cutting of the kings & soldiers, the two kings were not allowed to see each other, and they had to go out of the city and provincial tombs, and they had to be invited, and they would eat Lu but not govern things, so they became the country's capital defects - "History of the Ming Dynasty"

The disciples can only bring visitors to the second gate, and they can't enter the inner house, Qi Xiaoguang can. When the Qi prefect mansion broke in, King Shou was eating.

The current Shouwang is no longer the 200-pound little fat man when he just left the palace, after years of unremitting efforts, today's Shouwang has become a towering mountain. Well, Roshan - a weight of three hundred catties, anyone who sees it will say that this is a Roshan.

Li Yingzhong, the eunuch of the palace, broke in in a panic, lay on the ground, and just shouted: "His Royal Highness the prince", Qi Xiaoguang followed, also bowed to the ground, and continued: "Qi Xiaoguang, the prefect of Luoyang, has 100,000 urgent matters, and he will see the prince Chitose." "According to the rules set by the great grandfather, the crown, clothes, cars, and banners of the vassal king (one-word prince) are only one level lower than the Son of Heaven, not to mention the four-rank prefect, even if it is a first- or second-rank official or even a prince, he must bow down and bow down when he goes to pay respects.

The world is big, there will be a domain, the upper defense of the country, the lower peace of the people, now all the sons are long, it is advisable to have their own titles, divide the towns, I am not a private relative, but in accordance with the system of the ancient sages and kings, for the long-term peace and long-term rule. The crown is the first in the Cheqi Mansion, the first rank of the Son of Heaven, and the ministers of the princes bow down and bow, and they dare not bow down.

- The Teachings of the Holy Patriarch

Zhu Zhixun couldn't help but be taken aback: it was unheard of for the magistrate to break into the palace without waiting for the local magistrate to break into the palace. However, King Shou's brain is really not very bright (otherwise normal people would not eat themselves like that), and quickly returned to normal, beckoning with a smile: "Qi Qing's family is exempt, come and eat together." ”

Qi Xiaoguang turned a deaf ear and kowtowed, got up and said, "Xie Qiansui." The minister has something important to report. ”

Zhu Zhixun looked at the stew pot in front of him and waved his hand: "Don't be in a hurry, eat together." Come on, give Qi Aiqing a cup and eat it first. ”

Of course, Qi Xiaoguang had long known that Shouwang Chitose's brain was a little different from that of normal people, so he hurriedly bowed down and refused: "Chitose, it's really a hundred thousand urgent things, Chitose Rong." ”

Zhu Zhixun was talking to Qi Xiaoguang in his mouth, his eyes never left the stew pot, and he said absent-mindedly and undoubtedly: "Then talk while eating!" Qi Aiqing, this is a treasure recipe that Gu just got! Yesterday, there was a wandering Taoist who gave the lonely one: when the male donkey and the female donkey mated, in order to cut off its potential, with rice wine and old duck, with the snow water stored during the winter solstice last year, the charcoal fire simmered for twelve hours! You can make up for Yuanyang, you haven't eaten a bite yet! ”

Qi Xiaoguang understood: At the moment of food, it is useless to talk to this person. sighed in his heart, so he had to give another salute and move forward, and sat down under King Shou with half of his buttocks empty. Zhu Zhixun ignored Qi Xiaoguang anymore, scooped up a spoonful with a silver spoon, squinted his eyes and blew the hot air, took a sip with taste, and then praised the delicious drink, and drank spoonful after spoonful.

Rao is Qi Xiaoguang was full of urgency, and when he saw this, he was dead: It seems that this master is not happy anymore, and he can't listen to anything. simply settled his mind and secretly said: Zi said, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan. Anyway, the thieves won't be able to get over for a while, so let's bear with it and wait for Chitose to finish the soup.

After settling down, I suddenly smelled a strange fragrance in my nose.
