7 Chapter 7
Feng Bao carried Zhu Yijun back to the dormitory, Chen Ju and Wang An had been guarding the door, and when they saw them coming back, they immediately greeted them.
Chen Ju glanced at Zhu Yijun, the little guy leaned on Feng Bao's shoulder, one hand wrapped around Feng Bao's neck, and the other hand clenched into a fist, although his eyes were closed, his thick eyelashes could be seen trembling gently in the moonlight.
Chen Ju asked Feng Bao with his mouth: "Asleep?" ”
Feng Bao nodded, and several people hurriedly entered the house.
Feng Bao cautiously carried the person into the inner hall and challenged the difficult action - put him on the bed without waking him up.
However, as soon as he bent over, the challenge failed.
Zhu Yijun opened his eyes suddenly, looked at him with hazy eyes, looked confused and didn't know where he was, raised his little hand and grabbed it in the void, didn't catch anything, a little impatient, and shouted: "Big companion~"
"Here," Feng Bao hugged him with one hand, freed his other hand, held his small fist, put it on the lips and kissed it: "I'm here." ”
Hearing his voice, the little one was relieved and closed his eyes again. But before Feng Bao could breathe a sigh of relief, he suddenly shouted: "Drink milk, I want to drink milk!" ”
“……”
After speaking, Zhu Yijun's eyes closed again. It can be seen that he is too sleepy, but his dedication to drinking milk has always supported him, and he always owes something in his heart, and refuses to sleep in peace.
If he hadn't drunk this milk today, he wouldn't have slept obediently all night.
Feng Bao sighed and instructed Wang An: "Take some milk." ”
"Hehe~" Wang An stood aside, looking at the little guy's frowning and pouting impatiently, revealing an obsessive look.
Before entering the palace, he was just the child of an ordinary peasant family on the outskirts of Beijing. If someone told him that there really was a child in this world who was born so beautiful and lovely, with picturesque eyebrows, and could not find the slightest flaw, he would never believe it.
But now he believed, not only believed, but also saw it with his own eyes.
Suddenly, someone bumped his arm, Wang An came back to his senses, and met Chen Ju's cold gaze: "What are you doing in a daze, don't go quickly!" ”
"Huh!" Wang An turned around and walked out of the hall, "Let's go." ”
"Slow down, I'll whip you."
Feng Bao hugged Zhu Yijun and stroked his back, and asked Chen Ju: "He's just a child, what are you doing to him so fiercely?" ”
Chen Ju raised his chin: "Except for this little master, where are the children in the palace?" ”
Feng Bao smiled, knowing that he had a knife mouth and a tofu heart, and he didn't argue with him: "Your apprentice, you have the final say." ”
Zhu Yijun in his arms suddenly turned his head and said to Chen Ju: "You are not allowed to murder him!" ”
Chen Ju spread his hands: "Okay, I've become a bad person." ”
Wang An came in with a bowl of milk with honey: "Little master, drink it while it's hot." ”
Hearing the milk, Zhu Yijun didn't open his eyes, but opened his mouth, shook his head, and made an "ah" sound, which made the three people next to him laugh.
Feng Bao brought the milk to his mouth one by one, and the little guy took two sips, satisfied, and put the spoon in his mouth.
"Little master," Feng Bao patted his chest and found that he had fallen asleep.
Wang An scratched his head: "I was still arguing to drink milk just now, why don't you drink it again?" ”
Chen Ju touched his belly, bulging like a frog.
Feng Bao even coaxed and deceived, and it took a lot of effort to pull the spoon out of his mouth: "I didn't eat less for dinner, and I even ate a piece of watermelon before leaving." ”
Wang An was puzzled: "Then why do you come back and drink milk noisily?" ”
Feng Bao smiled: "This is called a sense of ceremony. ”
"Ritual?"
“……”
Although the little guy was already asleep, Feng Bao still asked someone to bring a basin of water, wiped his little face and hands for him, took off his coat, and pulled the thin quilt over his body.
Wang An yawned beside him, and Feng Bao urged: "You two go back and rest, I'll be here to guard." ”
Chen Ju said: "I will guard the little master tonight, you go back to rest." ”
"No, he woke up in the middle of the night, couldn't see me, and didn't know how to make a fuss."
Chen Ju hesitated for a moment, as if he had something to say.
Feng Bao pushed him: "I know what you want to ask, let's talk another day." ”
“……”
There was a low couch in the corner, and after Zhu Yijun fell asleep, Feng Bao put down the gauze tent and went to lie down.
In the second half of the night, I heard the sound of humming and chirping, followed by Zhu Yijun's slurred shouting: "Big companion, pee~"
He drank soup tonight, ate watermelon, came back and drank a few more sips of milk, and not wetting the bed in the middle of the night was already the last stubbornness.
When he first entered the palace, Zhu Yijun was a little uncomfortable, and he often woke up at night, and after waking up, he clamored to find a nurse and a mother.
When he transferred this dependence and trust to Feng Bao, he rarely woke up at night, and often slept until dawn.
Generally speaking, what time he gets up in the morning does not depend on whether he has slept enough, but whether he is hungry.
A good day starts with the first chirp of your stomach. Zhu Yijun turned over, pouted his buttocks, buried his little face in the pillow and rubbed it, and crawled to the side of the bed with a grunt after he was completely awake.
Feng Bao came in from the outside, and saw a small head poking out from the gap in the gauze tent, and his big smart eyes looked left and right, and when he saw him, he shouted excitedly: "Big companion~"
I can hear that I am in a good mood and I don't get up.
Feng Bao strode towards him, Zhu Yijun couldn't wait to stand up, opened the gauze tent with his little hand, Feng Bao was almost one step to the bed, and he couldn't wait to pounce.
Feng Bao's conditioned reflex generally took a big step, bent over, stretched out his hand, and caught the little guy like a scale.
Zhu Yijun put his arms around his neck and giggled in his ear.
It can be seen that the little guy's ten-minute love game of "fluttering", every time he falls safely into the arms of his big companion, he will be both happy and satisfied.
Feng Bao hugged him and patted his little buttocks: "Okay, okay, it's so noisy in the morning, let's get dressed." ”
Later, Chen Ju came in with water, still with an old face: "How many times have you said it, don't do such a dangerous thing, you can still fall if you fall." ”
Feng Bao scratched the little guy's nose: "I'm being trained again." ”
Chen Ju glared at him: "The child is not sensible, and you are not sensible?" ”
Zhu Yijun learned from him and said with a straight face: "I don't know anything." ”
Feng Bao smiled: "Okay, okay, I know, I dare next time." ”
Zhu Yijun danced beside him: "Dare, dare!" ”
"......" Chen Ju lowered his head and twisted the handkerchief in the basin, completely losing his temper.
Feng Bao waited for the little master to get dressed, and today he picked out a goose yellow round-necked gown, with a white edge of the undershirt exposed at the neckline, which made the little guy even more pink. Then hang him with a longevity lock, wear a safety buckle around his waist, and put on shoes.
Feng Bao looked him up and down, and sighed twice: "These eyebrows, this face, you will have it when you grow up." ”
Chen Ju: "Wash your face." ”
There was a "gurgling" sound next to him, and Feng Bao touched Zhu Yijun's stomach: "Hungry." ”
The little guy nodded: "I want to drink milk." ”
Two meals of milk in the morning and evening every day, and one meal should not be missing.
Feng Bao turned around and walked out: "I'll go and let someone pass the meal." ”
Chen Ju squatted in front of Zhu Yijun, holding his chin with one hand and a handkerchief in the other, carefully wiping his face.
The little guy suddenly raised his hand, poked his index finger at the corner of his mouth, and pushed it up: "Smile." ”
Chen Ju is not like Feng Bao, from time to time he can say some new words that they have not heard, and he is especially good at coaxing children, and the little master is especially clingy to him.
Chen Ju is not like Wang An, at the age of eleven or twelve, he is still a child, and he can play with the little master.
He is calm, down-to-earth, unsmiling, and personally interprets the words "rules" and "duty".
Chen Ju was stunned: "Do I smile too little on weekdays?" ”
Zhu Yijun nodded: "It's too little." ”
Chen Ju raised the corners of his lips with kindness, revealing a gentle smile: "That's the slave's." ”
Zhu Yijun shook his head again: "No, no." ”
Chen Ju took his little hand and wiped it carefully, not falling between every finger and finger: "The little master likes it, the slave will smile more in front of you in the future." ”
Zhu Yijun touched his cheek with his other hand and spoke highly of him: "Good-looking!" ”
Someone patted Chen Ju's shoulder from behind: "Smile service." He picked up Zhu Yijun again, "Let's go, drink milk." ”
Drinking milk is the top priority in Zhu Yijun's life, and the little guy couldn't wait to take a big sip, smack his lips, and frowned.
Feng Bao asked him, "What's wrong?" ”
Little Guy: "That's not right. ”
"What's wrong?"
"It's different."
"How is it different?"
Zhu Yijun bit his lower lip, he couldn't tell what was different, but he was sure: "It's just different." ”
Feng Bao and Chen Ju glanced at each other, and at the same time turned their heads to look at Wang An, who scratched his head: "Yes...... It's a little different. ”
Chen Ju asked, "What's going on?" ”
"I use high-grade black locust honey on weekdays, but I fell in the honey jar last night, and I didn't have time to take it this morning, so I used jujube nectar." He looked at Zhu Yijun and was very puzzled, "Can you taste this?" ”
Zhu Yijun nodded seriously: "Yes." ”
“……”
Chen Ju stood up: "I'll go to Shangshan Prison." ”
He was worried that the little master would not drink it, so he had to go and get it himself. Just about to leave, his robe was grabbed, and when he looked back, Zhu Yijun was raising his head and smiling at him.
After laughing, Zhu Yijun put his mouth to the edge of the bowl and drank it in a big gulp.
Feng Bao held the bowl and watched him drink it in one go, the little guy raised his head, and there was a white milk stain around his mouth, like a goatee, Feng Bao really wanted to take a camera to take a picture of him.
Zhu Yijun licked his lips and did not forget to make a request: "I want to drink the same as before at night." ”
"Yes, yes, then let someone fetch it."
After drinking milk, Zhu Yijun couldn't stay in the house for a moment, clamoring to go outside to play.
As soon as he walked to the door, the little guy turned around and pointed to a big box: "Qiuqiu, ask for Qiuqiu~"
Wang An understood, immediately ran over, and took a bamboo bell ball from his big wooden box with toys.
Today's weather is not bad, and the three of them accompanied Zhu Yijun to the imperial garden to play.
The little guy ran in front with the ball, and the crisp copper bell mixed with the soft laughter of the child sprinkled all the way, and even the concubines walking across the pond heard it, and looked at it frequently.
A few people came to an open space, Zhu Yijun and Wang An each stood on one side, and you threw the ball back and forth. Ten times out of ten, the little guy couldn't catch it, and he ran around chasing the ball, and he was so happy.
Feng Bao and Chen Ju stood aside, their eyes following their little master. Chen Ju asked about the events of that day.
Feng Bao roughly said how the little pavilion elder was domineering, walked with the wind, and collided with the little master. How distressed was the emperor, Imperial Doctor Xuan diagnosed and treated the little master, and asked the little pavilion elder to kneel outside the hall, and in front of everyone's eyes, he lost face.
After hearing this, Chen Ju frowned, thought for a moment, and then turned his head to look at him: "Are you okay?" ”
"Me?" Feng Bao shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "What can I do?" ”
Chen Ju glanced at Zhu Yijun's direction: "The emperor is discussing with the cabinet, but the little master appears outside the main hall, the emperor has not embarrassed you." ”
He was very sharp and smart, knowing that Emperor Jiajing was reluctant to blame the little emperor and grandson, and would only punish the people around him.
The two looked at each other, and Feng Bao saw sincerity and openness in his eyes.
"Nope."
"That's good." Chen Ju looked away and looked into the distance: "The Yan family's father and son are all over the world, and it is not something we can provoke." ”
"Our duty is to serve our master well."
Feng Bao replied: "That's nature. ”
Because Zhu Yijun was playing here, the eunuchs who passed by consciously went far away, and no one approached.
Speechless for a moment, Feng Bao followed his gaze into the distance, and through the heavy cornices, he could see the faint Banzai Mountain.
There is a building on the east side of Banzai Mountain, and there is a building that is the prison of the celebrant supervisor.
"I entered the palace at the age of 9 and was assigned under the name of Gao Zhonggao, the eunuch of the celebrant and the eunuch Bingbi, who was my master." When he spoke again, Chen Ju put the topic on the topic more than ten years ago, "That year, he commanded the 12th regimental battalion, supervised the warrior 4th guard battalion, and held the imperial horse supervisor. ”
"The Tatar soldiers are in Beijing, and when I saw him marching in uniform, I admired him very much, and I hope that one day, I can become a figure like him."
Feng Bao naturally understood this period of history that Yan Song and his comrades deliberately did not act, bribing the Mongols with money and property, so that they would not attack Datong.
Yan Song did not allow the military department to send troops, saying that he would fight from a distance, and he could cover up if he was defeated, and the emperor would fight under his nose, and he couldn't hide it if he was defeated, and the Mongols robbed the common people, and if they had enough, they would naturally leave.
Emperor Jiajing was furious, Yan Song pushed out the military department Shangshu and beheaded him, and dumped Gao Zhong, saying that this was the legacy of the eunuch soldiers.
Emperor Jiajing abolished the system of Gaozhong's 12 regiments and battalions, and abandoned it from then on.
Now that Gao Zhong is old, he is seeking an idle position in the celebrant supervisor, and the evening is not good.
mentioned Gao Zhong, Chen Ju's eyes were full of regret and forbearance. Feng Bao could see that he hated Yan Song to the core. However, the gap in strength is too big to do anything.
Yan Song's father and son went up to the scourge of loyalty, the country and the people, down to bullying men and women, killing people and setting fires, all evil, they can be described as the scum of the scum, how many people want to cut them with a thousand knives, but they have no chance.
But Feng Bao knew that this opportunity would come soon.
At this time, Zhu Yijun didn't catch the ball thrown by Wang An, and rolled to the rockery behind, and the little guy turned around and staggered to chase.
Feng Bao was not at ease, so he also followed. Just as the little guy bent down to pick up the ball, a black shadow suddenly appeared behind the rockery, and quickly pounced towards the bamboo bell ball.
Feng Bao instinctively hugged Zhu Yijun, half-turned around and protected the person in his arms, but when he heard the "bang", he turned his head to look, and the two cats hugged each other and got out of the way.
The black cat that had rushed out earlier seemed to be very afraid of the other. Struggling to get up, kicking on all fours, and fleeing.
It should have been attracted by the sound of bells, and then saw the rolling bamboo bell ball, so it rushed out from behind the rockery.
Chen Ju and Wang An hurriedly ran over, surrounded Zhu Yijun left and right, touched him up and down, and made sure that he was not injured, so they put their minds at ease.
A few people looked up, and there was a long-haired lion cat over there, with a gray coat and white above the eyes, just like two white eyebrows.
Feng Bao said: "It's Frost Eyebrow." ”
Frost eyebrows are the pet of the cat room to be dedicated to Emperor Jiajing, empathetic, very humane, the emperor is very favored, and also gave it the title of "Dragon", as a divine beast.
However, this cat has a cold personality, although it will not take the initiative to attack people, but except for Emperor Jiajing, it will not be close to anyone.
Shuangmei didn't leave in a hurry, sitting calmly in place, her eyes falling on Zhu Yijun's body, and she seemed to be looking at this human cub very seriously.
Zhu Yijun also looked at it curiously, babbling something, the three people next to him didn't understand, but Shuangmei "meowed", as if he understood.
Hearing the cat's meow, Zhu Yijun was overjoyed, clapping his hands and jumping and jumping, learning the appearance of frost eyebrows "meow meow" and screaming.
Frostbrow suddenly stood up, flicked her hair, and walked over to them.
Feng Bao vigilantly protected Zhu Yijun in his arms, this is the Ming Dynasty in 1561, and there is no rabies vaccine, it is not easy to accidentally be scratched by a cat.
But Shuangmei only sat down in front of Zhu Yijun, and didn't look at the three people next to him from beginning to end, and her eyes kept falling on the child.
Seeing it approaching, Zhu Yijun was excited. Determined to break free from Feng Bao's shackles, he ran over and pasted with Frost Eyebrows.
Feng Bao was still not at ease, squatted down, and reasoned with the little guy: "Let's just stand here and see what?" ”
The little guy shook his head: "I love it!" ”
Wang An said on the side: "It seems to like you too." ”
The little guy pouted, "I'm going." ”
Feng Bao continued to talk to him about the conditions: "Then let's take a look, can you not touch it?" ”
The little one thought for a moment and nodded.
Feng Bao took him over, the little guy was excited and curious, and circled around the frost eyebrows: "Meow meow meow~ I like it!" Like! ”
Although he likes it, he also abides by the agreement with Feng Bao: just look, don't touch.
After a while, Shuangmei seemed to feel a little bored, so she stood up, and Feng Bao hugged Zhu Yijun vigilantly, for fear that something would happen.
Frost Eyebrows didn't get closer, but turned around, buttocks at them, flicked their big tails, swept Zhu Yijun's face, and then stepped on an elegant step and walked away.
Before leaving, it turned its head, and this time it didn't look at Zhu Yijun, but at Feng Bao.
"Ouch!" Feng Bao was surprised, "I'm here, despised by a cat?" ”
"Or else?" Chen Ju jokingly said, "It's the master, you are the slave." ”
Feng Bao supported his forehead: "Sure enough, it's the cat master." ”
This cat owner's shovel officer is not easy to mess with.
After that day, Zhu Yijun never forgot about Frost Eyebrow, and from time to time he had to "meow" twice, dragging Feng Bao out to find "Meow Meow" every day, but after that day, they never encountered Frost Eyebrow again.
In the blink of an eye, it was the height of summer, the alchemy room was smoky, and the heat was unbearable, and Emperor Jiajing could only hand over his plan of immortality to the Taoist priests for the time being, and he stayed in Yuxi Palace to enjoy the coolness, but he had a lot of leisure time. Every day, the little emperor Sun will be announced to him and enjoy the joy of family.
Ice cubes were placed all around the palace to cool off the emperor. Emperor Jiajing sat on the dragon chair and flipped through the scriptures, and Zhu Yijun sat at his feet playing with toys.
Emperor Jiajing looked down at his grandson, and suddenly remembered his childhood.
He was born in Luzhou, Guang'an, Hu, the fiefdom of King Xing, and without the emperor's will, he couldn't go anywhere.
Unlike other princes and grandsons, when he was just able to speak, King Xing taught him to read and write, and when he was a little older, he would take him to the sacrifice.
When he was 12 years old, Xingwang Xushi, he took over the palace as the son of Xingwang.
"Jun'er."
The little guy looked up from a pile of toys and smiled at him, and shouted in a milky voice, "Grandpa Huang." ”
Emperor Jiajing said: "Is it good for the imperial grandfather to teach you to read?" ”
"Reading?"
Zhu Yijun has heard this word more than once.
As he fiddled with his toys, he said, "I read it." ”
Emperor Jiajing was surprised: "Have you read it?" ”
Zhu Yijun nodded seriously, very sure: "I have read it." ”
Emperor Jiajing became interested: "Then you tell the imperial grandfather, what have you read?" ”
The little guy blurted out: "Zi said: Reciting poems for three hundred, teaching them to govern, but not reaching; It can be used in all directions, and cannot be specialized. Although there are many, do you think so? ”
"Zi said: Ambition is in the Tao, according to virtue, according to benevolence, and in art."
Zi said: The wise man is happy with the water, and the benevolent man is happy with the mountain. The wise move, the benevolent are quiet; The wise are happy, and the benevolent are long. ”
“!!!”
With a "snap", the scripture book in Emperor Jiajing's hand fell to the ground.
