First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Zhu Biao thought about it for a while again, thinking that there was nothing missing, he got up and stretched his waist. There were crackling sounds in his waist, and he felt much more comfortable immediately.

He ordered Fugui to stay and pack his pen and ink, and then led the people out of the Wenhua Palace and walked towards the bedroom. At this time, the night was already dark, the night sky was full of shining stars, and the bright moon was full of time, and there was only this wonderful and profound scenery It belongs to all people in the world, whether it is an emperor or a beggar, everyone can look up to it.

No matter when you look at it, there is an inexplicable shock and touch, and only then will Zhu Biao feel that this prince is nothing more than that, he has been romantic for decades, how can he shine forever like this ancient star.

Zhu Biao looked up with his hands behind his back for a long time, and then he came back to see that none of the eunuchs and court ladies around him looked up at the starry sky with him, they all stood with their hands down, and all their attention was focused on him.

Zhu Biao couldn't help laughing, only rich and noble people have the leisure to cause cold and sorrow. Most people are hard enough to live, and they still have time to enjoy the scenery. No matter how beautiful the sky is full of stars, they can't fill their stomachs.

Going straight back to Chengqian Palace, Chang Luohua went out to greet her in person, and the two entered the bedroom hand in hand. The maid waited for Zhu Biao to wash and change clothes, and the couple had time to talk about themselves after cleaning up.

Lying on the couch, Zhu Biao sighed comfortably, then took his princess's Qianqian jade hand and asked with a smile: Is Yang'er Liang'er making a fuss today?

Fortunately, I took it to my mother's side today. The concubine's mother and sister Yu'er have all entered the palace, and they take turns holding Rare. The concubine is relieved.

That's good. Speaking of which, I haven't seen Sister Yu'er for a while. How is her family doing after entering Beijing?

Zhu Biao still attaches great importance to Yu'er, the elder sister who took care of her since childhood, but he has a special status. He pays too much attention to their family on weekdays, which is actually a disaster rather than a blessing. After all, his husband Zhang Wei has mediocre qualifications. .

Now it's a bit of a stretch to be the commander of the five cities' soldiers and horses. If it weren't for the civil and military under Donggong's intentional or unintentional help, and everyone gave face, I'm afraid he would have been impeached and imprisoned long ago.

It's not that Zhang Wei is corrupt and abuses the law to bully others. It's just that this position is not easy to do. He is not only responsible for patrolling and arresting thieves in the capital, clearing streets, ditches, prisoners, and fire bans, but also annexing the city department. , Scale ruler, examine the name of the tooth dealer, and its price at that time.

He has to deal with the civil and military ministers in Beijing at the top, and he has to manage the common people at the bottom. Any trivial matters from all parties will be blamed on him. A slight negligence is a crime of negligence. If there is no one at the top, basically no one can be here Work for two years.

However, it is impossible for ordinary people to be able to achieve this position. It must be the confidant of the Tian family. This is an official office that can mobilize troops and horses in the imperial city by itself.

Zhang Wein's ability to sit in this position is not only due to the merits of his father and daughter-in-law, in this important position, foolish and loyal people are far more reliable than smart people.

Chang Luohua lightly untied Luo Shan and said, Sister Yu'er just gave birth to a daughter, and she is much richer. I am very happy to see Yang'er Lianger today.

Oh? I didn't even know that Sister Yu'er had another daughter, so she should be given a gift.

Knowing that the master is busy, the courtiers and concubines have made arrangements.

Hahaha, that's great, I have to thank the Crown Princess.

During the laughter, two thinly clad figures rolled and frolicked on the wide bed, panting for a while before stopping and clinging tightly together, the bright and clear moonlight shone through the thin window in the bedroom, faintly The incense rises indistinctly.

I heard that Master Cai taught Liu Jin a lesson just now?

Well, I have to suppress it. Liu Jin has a sense of proportion, but there are almost no people under him.

The concubine only heard from my mother today. A few days ago, Concubine Li Shu taught a young eunuch in her palace a lesson. After ordering people to beat ten boards, she rushed to the Imperial Horse Supervisor. As a result, the little eunuch begged Liu An. Then he was assigned to Concubine Guo Ning's Palace.

Zhu Biao caressed the jade waist of his concubine, with no expression on his face, and after a while he said: It's a big face, Yun Jin doesn't care about things, they are at ease.

In the past, Yun Jin was more in charge of matters in the palace than Liu Jin, and was also stricter than Liu Jin. All the court ladies and eunuchs were in awe, not only because Yun Jin had higher qualifications than Liu Jin, but also because Yun Jin was a female official who was borrowed by Empress Ma to groom the palace.

This is the concubine's negligence. The queen mother only said it today, and she is also mentioning the concubine.

Zhu Biao's expression softened when he heard the words: Don't think too much, it is my order to let you let go of power and raise your baby with peace of mind. The empress dotes on you the most on weekdays. This little thing is not worth mentioning.

Chang Luohua smiled and arched her husband's arms and squinted her eyes: The concubine also has good news to tell the Lord that Wang Liangdi should be pregnant.

Zhu Biao's eyes lit up: Did the imperial doctor see it?

Not yet, but the concubine seems to be close to ten, and I'm still thinking about calling the imperial physician in a few days.

Zhu Biao's thoughts changed in a flash. It would be great if Wang Rui could give birth. It doesn't matter whether the child is male or female.

Zhu Biao bowed his head and kissed his wife, and then began to talk sweetly. Although women in this era are very accepting of their husbands taking concubines and giving birth to bastards, it is certain that they will be unhappy after all.

But Chang Luohua didn't appreciate it: Master is acting like this suddenly, is it because he is afraid that my concubine won't be able to tolerate a child?

………………

The next morning Zhu Biao got up rubbing his waist, and two maids came in to serve him. After dressing and washing, he had a quick breakfast, and then went to Wenhua Palace. Jiang Yu had been waiting for a long time.

It was still dark at this time, and the slight wind blowing on the face refreshed one's spirits. When one stepped into the Wenhua Palace, one was kneeling on the ground. Zhu Biao walked straight past him, casually waved his hands in the upper seat and said: It's so early, have you eaten?

Your Highness dare not speak nonsense in front of you, the last general has not eaten yet.

I knew it would be like this, so let Fugui offer it to Dudu Jiang.

Zhu Biao looked at Jiang Yu who got up and said, I don't have much appetite today, I just left breakfast and I'll let you do it for me.

Jiang Yu solemnly kowtowed and said: The last general is very honored, and I thank Your Highness for the reward!

Jiang Yu gulped down the breakfast Zhu Biao brought, and Fugui Fuduo's eyes were straightened, thinking that such a big official would not be able to open the pot at home, how could he eat like the fleeing people.

Zhu Biao looked at it twice, then got up and took out the letter he wrote yesterday and put it on the table, then he shook his head unconsciously seeing that Fugui Fuduo was still in a daze. Without autonomy, you can only wait for his orders.

Unlike Liu Jin's tacit understanding, but for the time being, this is the only way to go, beckoning Fuduo to come forward and deliver the letter on the desk to Jiang Yu: Send this letter as soon as possible without delay.

promise

After Jiang Yu had finished his breakfast, Zhu Biao said casually: After arranging this matter, you go to Fengyang to meet Quan Xu, and tell me that I miss him.

When Jiang Yu heard this, he was even more excited than before. He blushed and looked at His Royal Highness who was smiling above him, and rolled his Adam's apple a few times before responding to the promise.

Everyone knows that the most trusted confidant of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been that Quan Xu who has faded out of the court and guarded Fengyang silently, the man who hides behind the Prince's back.

Now there is great worry from top to bottom in the Pro-Army Captain's Mansion. Everyone can feel that the Holy Majesty no longer trusts them as much as he did back then. It is ironclad evidence.

They are different from other government offices, in fact, they are the same as the palace ladies and eunuchs in the inner court. They are not considered as servants of the court, but the emperor's domestic slaves. If the hawks and dogs have lost the trust of their masters, then what is their use?

And Fugui Fuduo on the side was even more confused, some doubted whether he was really capable of serving the crown prince, why couldn't he see that this man sent a message for His Highness, what's so exciting, so frivolous Can be entrusted with important tasks.

Jiang Yu sorted out his mood and talked about some information recently obtained by the pro-military captain's mansion, some important and some novel, most of which were related to local officials, and Zhu Biao listened with great interest.

Finally Jiang Yu said: Your Highness, Chahan, the son of Nahachu in Liaodong, should enter Beijing today, and his escort has two hundred Qingqi.

Zhu Biao stroked his eyebrows and said, Don't worry about it, he can bring as many people as he wants to the capital, but I want to see what the two of them are planning.
