Entering Chengming Courtyard, Zhu Jinghong asked people to set up a chessboard, and really talked to Baochai about learning.

Of course, these are all face-saving projects, and Zhu Jinghong has asked people a lot of personal questions.

"Miss Xue, how are you doing in the palace recently?"

"Is it good...... The Thirteenth Master can't see it! Baochai picked up the chess pieces and said.

The two often discussed and asked questions, and now they are very familiar with each other, so they talk like friends in private.

"What's missing, if it's not good to talk to the third sister, you can tell me directly, after all, we are masters and apprentices!"

"Thirteenth master, don't talk nonsense, the bachelors of the Hanlin Academy can't afford it, how dare I recognize you as a teacher!"

Picking up the teacup, Zhu Jinghong said slowly: "The bachelors of the Hanlin Academy can't afford it, are you scolding me or praising me?" ”

Baochai raised his head and said with a cold expression: "Of course it's a praise for the Thirteenth Master!" ”

The two of them were so idle, and after playing a game of chess, Baochai finally couldn't help but get up.

"Thirteenth Master, I really have something important to do, and I have been delayed for so long...... If the mother asks, it's not easy to explain! ”

Zhu Jinghong put away the chess pieces on the table and said slowly: "Understand, don't you just want to go, I don't seem to let go!" ”

"I'll send you!"

"No need...... The courtiers say goodbye! ”

Before Zhu Jinghong got up, Baochai took a few steps back after saluting, and then turned around and ran out.

She has always prided herself on being polite, and now she has to use this rude way to escape from Zhu Jinghong's harassment.

Out of Chengming Courtyard, Baochai finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"This thirteenth master is inevitably too out of line, and you will have to come to Chengming Courtyard less in the future!"

"If you really have something, let Zhen Qin come over ......"

"No, no, this girl Zhen Qin is bent on pestering the Thirteenth Master, wouldn't it be right to fulfill her wish if she came over!"

"But if you let Ting girl come over...... She's the queen's niece, isn't she close to the water......"

"Forget it, I'll come if there's something, just take it as a loss!"

Baochai muttered in a low voice and strolled in the direction of Shangyi Bureau.

Because she was delayed in Chengming Courtyard, when she arrived at the Shangyi Bureau, Qiqige had just finished washing and dressed up according to the Daming attire.

"Miss Xue...... What are you doing here! ”

To Xue Baochai, who was born in a "mediocre", the female officials of Shangyi Bureau were extremely polite, even if they were of a higher grade.

Everything is just because Baochai is behind him, with the support of Zhu Jinghong, the thirteenth master, these people in the palace hate to be high and low, how can they not treat each other politely now.

After Baochai saluted the female officials, she replied: "The princess ordered me to come over and bring the Dzungar woman over!" ”

"The girl came just in time, the girl has been washed, and we are about to send it over!"

"Don't bother you, just hand it over to me!" Baochai laughed.

"Then it's bothering the girl!"

After saying the polite words, one of the female officers ordered: "Bring someone over and give it to Miss Xue!" ”

"Yes!"

After a few breaths, a girl wearing a blue placket and a bun on her head was brought out, and it was really Kikige who had already been dressed.

"It's ...... The appearance is thoughtful and heroic! ”

This is the evaluation given by Baochai, although the other party's appearance is not very good, but the heroism between the eyebrows and eyes really adds a lot of points, so that people can remember this face at a glance.

"This is Miss Xue, you can go with her!"

"Where?"

"Naturally, I'm going to see the princess!"

"Oh!"

I saw Qiqige take two steps forward and say generously to Baochai: "Hello...... My name is Kikige! ”

This made Baochai stunned, and could only say: "Hello...... I...... Let's go! ”

Baochai was not used to such self-introductions, so she simply did not introduce them, and led Qiqige out.

"This girl is so stupid and cute!"

"Cute? When she slaughtered cows and sheep with a knife, you didn't think it was cute! ”

"yes...... These people are barbarians, even women also dance knives and guns, so there is half a point of etiquette! ”

"Let her enter the palace to serve like this, I'm afraid of ......"

While the female officials of the Shangyi Bureau were discussing, Qiqige had already followed Baochai out of the Shangyi Bureau.

"What's your name?"

Qiqige's question was very direct, and Baochai knew that she didn't understand the etiquette of the Ming Dynasty, so she replied: "My name is Baochai!" ”

Who knew that Qiqige asked next: "Also a slave in this palace?" ”

This is essentially no problem, and it is not wrong to say that the errand in the palace is a slave, but the servant is different from the servant after all.

"Just like you, it's the princess's attendant!"

"Oh...... Then it's not a minion! ”

The two of them walked forward for a while, and then heard Kikige ask, "What is the princess's personality?" Do you get along well? ”

Baochai replied in a calm tone: "What is the princess's personality, you and I need to adapt!" ”

"But I don't have a good temper, and I often beat and scolded when I was in the palace......"

Before Qiqige finished speaking, Baochai interrupted her and said: "That's in Dzungaria, now you are in Daming, you have to abide by the rules of Daming!" ”

A minion dares to teach himself a lesson? Kikige was very unhappy.

After speeding up his pace and paralleling Baochai, Qiqige asked again: "Is it fun in this palace?" When can I go out? ”

Baochai replied calmly: "You learn the rules of the palace clearly first, and then talk about it!" ”

Junggar and Daming are not on good terms, and she knows about this, so she is not optimistic about Qiqige's future.

The two of them talked, and soon came to Kunning Palace.

At the same time, the emperor's edict also followed to the East Palace.

Zhu Jingyuan was looking through the previous chapters, and when he heard the oracle, how dare he slack off, so he put down what he was doing and rushed out.

In the outer hall of the East Palace, under the busy work of a group of eunuchs of the East Palace, the incense case futon required for receiving the order has been set up.

A group of East Palace scholars came to the hall with Zhu Jingyuan in their arms, and stood in shifts to receive orders.

"Son-in-law Zhu Jingyuan, ask your father Emperor Sheng'an!"

The eunuch replied, "Holy bow", and then read: "The Lord has decreed that on the ninth day of the tenth month, in the Wuying Palace, a banquet will be held for the envoys of the Tusi of the nations and the alliances, and the prince will be ordered to preside over the banquet for me!" ”

"Chin this!"

"Son's Command!"

After Zhu Jingyuan kowtowed, the eunuch hurriedly walked down the steps and helped the prince on the ground up.

After listening to the eunuch's compliment, the officials of the prince's mansion sent him out, and then went into the living room with the prince.

"Your Highness, the Holy Lord ordered you to preside over the state banquet, which shows that Your Highness's grace is not declining and your position is stable!"

"That's right, this matter has to be planned, let's let His Highness do a good job!"

Everyone began to discuss the yamen involved in the banquet, and divided the tasks to be docked.

Everyone talked about it, and the preliminary plan for the state banquet had been discussed, and Zhu Jingyuan nodded in agreement.

After a group of bachelors left, Zhu Jingyuan's old nervous problem was made again, so that he couldn't even look at it, and turned around and went directly into the inner house.

Every time he encounters a major event, especially an errand assigned by the emperor's father, Zhu Jingyuan will be nervous unconsciously, so that he will think deeply and become anxious.

When he entered the study of the inner house, Yuan Chun, who knew the situation, also rushed over, and saw Zhu Jingyuan's face pale as if he was seriously ill.

"Your Highness, what's going on?"

Zhu Jingyuan replied honestly: "My father handed me an errand, but I am afraid that I will be messed up again, so at this moment, my heart is turning over and I am uneasy!" ”

Although he favors Wang Yi more, he also knows that Yuan Chun can find a way, so he only shows his thoughts and dishes at this moment.

"There are scholars to share their worries, Your Highness can take a look at the overall situation, and it will be fine!"

Hearing Yuan Chun's reassuring words, Zhu Jingyuan couldn't help but say: "I just don't know the bottom in my heart, if I ...... If only the thirteenth brother was here! ”

Remembering that in Jinling before, with Zhu Jinghong's help in giving advice, although the matter was "thrilling", the errand was completed, Zhu Jingyuan naturally felt relieved.

"This ...... At the time of the banquet, let the Thirteenth Master follow! ”

"I'm going to invite him over and listen to his opinions, or I'll send someone to invite him today!"

"Don't worry, I'll invite you tomorrow, by the way...... Lian Sheng'er invited them together, and said that they were invited to come over to enjoy the flowers, and it happened that the begonia flowers in the garden were blooming! ”

"Why do you want Sheng'er?" Zhu Jingyuan was a little unanswered.

"Just invite the thirteenth brother, the intention is not too obvious!"

Zhu Jingyuan nodded and said, "I'm bothering you to contact me about this matter, and the time is set for ...... Tomorrow afternoon! ”

"Hmm...... I'll go to the palace tomorrow!" ”
