Bright Spring

Gao Xu walked up to Miao Jin again, and said, "Hello, little aunt, when did you enter the palace?" The moment the two of them greeted each other, their eyes met, and she saw Gao Xu, who was tall and strong, wearing a big red leather hat, But there was a faint sense of shame and pity in the eyes, which made Miaojin worry about being exposed and feel guilty at the same time.

Why bother?

"Yesterday." Miao Jin only said two words in return.

The whole family talked about the daily life in Kunning Palace, and Miao Jin noticed that Gao Xu was looking at her from time to time.But she didn't respond, she pretended not to know, but she kept paying attention to his eyes from the corner of her eye.

Near noon, Empress Xu left her two sons and two daughters-in-law for dinner. Miao Jin did not want to participate in the royal family banquet, so she left first.

At this time, the emperor Zhu Di had just stepped down from the imperial chariot, so Miao Jin had no choice but to go forward and pinch the Ziwu Jue to salute.Zhu Di's eyes were very sharp, and he looked her up and down a little recklessly, and said, "It's almost lunch time, Gao Chi Gao Xu is here, where is Miao Jin going?"

Miao Jin lowered her head and frowned slightly, and said: "It's not good for poor people to disturb the family banquet of the Holy One, please forgive me."

Zhu Di looked like he didn't know what to say, but he didn't go to Kunning Palace right away, and said: "Miaojin is not suitable for becoming a monk, it's better to return to vulgarity."

Miao Jin said: "The sage sees the original, the poor Taoist is obsessed with the fairy road, and dare not live up to the high expectations of the master."

"Zhang Sanfeng is really alive?" Zhu Di said a little unhappy, "If he is really born, he should have no distractions, no emotions and six desires, but when Jing Yushi passed away, I think Miaojin was very sad."

Miao Jin had no choice but to say: "Poverty Tao has not yet attained the Tao, and still needs to practice. Parents have the kindness of nurturing, and Poor Tao has not repaid it so far. The Tao is too shallow to be relieved. The Holy One laughed."

"Well..." Zhu Di didn't say much, and he walked up the stone steps.Miao Jin hurriedly bowed and said, "Respectfully send off the Holy Majesty."

At this time Zhu Di looked back at her again, and turned his head a little reluctantly.

Miao Jin walked northward from the wide brick floor, and the eunuch next to him couldn't help but whispered: "The emperor is busy with state affairs every day, and he is not good at women; he is even more noble if he is not close to a noble woman. The emperor But it's really rare to talk so much with Master Chi Yue."

Miao Jin said coldly: "What do you want to say?"

The eunuch hurriedly bent down, "The real man calms down his anger, the slaves talk too much, I just think what the emperor said makes sense." He whispered, "If the real man returns to vulgarity, I hope to be named a noble concubine!"

Miao Jin sneered and said, "You think I envy the concubine?"

The eunuch accompanied the smiling face boredly and fell silent.

Miao Jin glanced at him, but said with a sigh of relief, "I know you mean well, don't take it to heart."

"Slave, how dare you!" the eunuch hurriedly said, "You are the person summoned by the empress, and if you borrow ten courage from this servant, this servant will not dare to think that you are not wrong at all."

Miao Jin said softly: "I saw the high wall of the harem, isolated from the world. Those palace ladies will stay here for the rest of their lives and cannot leave. Maybe many people envy their noble status, but I am wholeheartedly in the Taoist temple in the mountains. I don't envy silk and satin, only envy Xiaoyao."

What's more, Miao Jin came from a scholarly family, so she didn't believe in the etiquette education.If there is one maid and two husbands, who is she?

If she was willing to commit herself to King Yan, she would have done it long ago.Back then when she was still in Beiping, the intention of Jianwen Junchen was to let her seduce|seduce Zhu Di; she was still unwilling...just because she thought she had already been decided and was destined to enter the palace as Emperor Jianwen's concubine!She had never met Jianwen, she just didn't want to serve one man and shamelessly be with another.

Chapter 176

/p>After lunch in the palace, the two princes and their princess left.Zhu Di went to the East Nuan Pavilion of Qianqing Palace to rest. He wanted to take a nap, but suddenly remembered something he hadn't done, so he asked someone to find some eunuchs.

Zhu Di has just taken control of the huge Ming Dynasty, and there are endless things to do every day.He can only hide all his emotions in his heart, and follow the way he thought of, doing it one by one.

Not long after, the eight eunuchs whose names were called all came to Dongnuan Pavilion.

Zhu Di glanced twice, and everyone was here.

They are all eunuchs, including Zheng He (formerly known as Ma He) and Baoer (formerly named Li Qian) from Yunnan; Huadu), Meng Ji (originally named Tian'er) from Xifan, the dog originally named Wang Yan, and Hou Xian.

It turned out that there were more than eight eunuchs in the Palace of King Yan, but now Zhu Di valued these eight the most, because they all fought their lives in the "Battle of Jingnan".Like that dog, he takes the lead every time he sieges a city, and he is not afraid of death at all.

At this time Zhu Di said: "According to the original court system, the eunuchs in the palace are managed by the Ministry of Officials. I think it is inconvenient for the outer court to control the internal officials. You go to build a yamen called the Supervisor of Rites, and you will help me in the future." In charge of the eunuchs in the palace."

Everyone worshiped: "Slaves and maidservants wait for the order."

Zhu Di pointed at Zheng He again and said, "You will be the eunuch of the Lijian, and Hou Xian will be the young eunuch. Together, all eight of you will be officials in the Lijian. From now on, the eunuch affairs in the palace should not be meddled by the Ministry of Officials." .”

Zheng He and Hou Xian knelt down and said: "I am waiting to thank the emperor for his kindness!"

Zhu Di thought for a while, and then asked: "Zheng He, Hou Xian, you are all around for lunch today, let's talk about who is better, Gao Chi or Gao Xu."

"This..." Zheng He and Hou Xian looked at each other in blank dismay.

Zheng He said: "The two princes are the emperor's princes, so it's good for slaves to look at them."

Hou Xian quickly echoed, "What Eunuch Zheng said is true."

"This morning, an official impeached Gao Xu for wearing the prince's clothes. I guess the official meant that he wanted to urge me to entrust the princes." Zhu Di said, "There are no outsiders here, who do you think is better for the prince?"

Zheng He was startled, and hurriedly kowtowed, and the other eunuchs hurriedly lowered their bodies even lower.Zheng He said: "At that time, the servants were also in Fengtianmen, impeaching the king of Gaoyang County, and they were the servants of the Hanlin Academy who read Xie Jin, but the servants did not expect Xie Jin to have such a meaning. The emperor is just like the sun, and the servants did not think of those things. Didn't I don't know how to answer, please forgive me, the emperor."

Hou Xian was more straightforward, saying: "The slaves and maidservants are just servants who serve the emperor, so they dare not talk about such important matters."

"That's all!" Zhu Di waved his hand.

"Slave waits for thank you, please leave."

...Zhu Gaoxu and Guo Wei have already returned to the palace. She asked Wang Gui to move all the gifts from the emperor and empress to the warehouse and put them away before registering them.

There is actually a living thing in the gift, so it cannot be moved to the warehouse, or it will starve to death in a few days.It was a colorful parrot. The parrot didn't call out, but was jumping around in the cage, looking at the people outside the cage.

"The queen mother rewarded me as a concubine." Guo Wei said softly.

So Zhu Gaoxu asked someone to take the parrot to Guo Wei's new house and put it in the hall outside the bedroom.Zhu Gaoxu walked into the new house, stretched out his fingers to tease the parrot, and seeing Guo Wei's eyes were red, he asked, "Wei'er cried? Why did the queen mother give you a parrot?"

Guo Wei glanced at the maids next to her. The two maids were also sent by the queen. They had good eyesight and went out immediately.

Guo Wei said softly: "Shi Zifei knew that I knew Lianying's daughter, but she said how Miss Lian was insulted by soldiers, and how she was eaten by vicious dogs after she died. After hearing this, I felt that Miss Lian was so pitiful and miserable. stop crying.

At this time, the queen mother entered the Kunning Palace. I saw the little aunt gave me a wink and shook her head, so I guessed what the little aunt meant, and the queen mother would not be happy when she heard about it.So the queen mother rewarded a parrot, and said that it was a parrot from the Western Regions given by a general named Song Sheng. "

"The imperial concubine is a scheming woman! She must have done it on purpose. The whole family will be in trouble if Lian Ying plans to assassinate the father. Even the girl was implicated, and it is so miserable. This is the order of the father to punish. Zhu The queen mother knows about it." Zhu Gaoxu said a little angrily, "If Wei'er tells the mother how miserable the girl of the Lian family is, how can you sympathize with her, then you are blaming the father for doing something wrong? Can the mother be happy?"

Guo Wei stared at Zhu Gaoxu with big bright eyes, and nodded with a pale face.

Zhu Gaoxu said again: "This scheming girl doesn't give me face! I just got married, and the first time my wife saw her, she would dig a hole for you. It's too much. Be careful of her in the future, and it's best not to meet or talk to her. Wei I'm afraid I'm not her match."

Guo Wei looked timid, and said: "I didn't expect the palace to be so scary. I didn't offend her. She is still my sister-in-law, and she actually wanted to harm me! I blame me for being too stupid. I don't know anything, and I will hurt the prince."

"No, no, Wei'er is already very witty, otherwise, she will definitely fall into the trap! A 14-year-old girl can make a scheming woman like Zhang's escape, Wei'er is very good." Zhu Gaoxu said kindly.

Guo Wei said: "My lord is lenient to me, thank you lord. I really didn't expect that there are so many things going on inside. Fortunately, my aunt reminded me. I think my sister-in-law is bad, but my aunt is good."

Zhu Gaoxu said: "Wei'er, you don't need to thank me, you and I are one. The little aunt treats you well, you just need to remember, and treat her well."

"Well, I will remember my little aunt." Guo Wei said softly.

Zhu Gaoxu took two steps back and forth, and said again: "Mr. Zhang can't be said to be bad, but she has too many intentions. She didn't bully you for no reason, just because her husband and I were fighting for the crown prince.
