[Ming Dynasty] I seem to know too much

There are several types of people serving in the palace, one is the palace people who are always in the palace, and the other is the guards who come in and out on duty.Needless to say, the guards have their own fixed guards, especially Jin Yiwei.The palace people are different again, except for those who are on duty every night, they basically live in the apse.

This is the case with Liu Jin and others. When they serve the prince, they naturally follow Zhu Houzhao all the time, even if they are on the night shift, they will not relax.The crown prince is very playful, and he just let go of things in the palace on weekdays. It would be better after Jiao Shizhi came. Under such circumstances, these eunuchs dare not relax at all, for fear that someone else will take their place. .

And eunuchs and servants are no more than palace maids, they live and die as people in the palace, and they have no other hope except power and money.

After being hit by a board, the undercurrent surging in the Eastern Palace subsided a lot, and several injured servants felt helpless, so they had to lie on the bed to recuperate. It happened to be the twelfth lunar month. It is easy to be disabled, and Emperor Hongzhi was merciless when he ordered people to attack.

Liu Jin was lying on the bed, and the little eunuch serving him carefully put things on the small table next to his bed. In the dark room, only the brazier in the corner was still warm. As the chief eunuch, Liu Jin still had this privilege. of.There are not many things in the house, but everything is exquisite. The little eunuch lit the candles on the table, and then retreated quietly, not daring to disturb Eunuch Liu who was recuperating.

When the room became quiet again, Liu Jin slowly opened her closed eyes, glanced at the things on the table, snorted, and said in a hoarse voice: "It doesn't matter if Qiu Ju died, he died in the hands of Long Live Lord." It's better than dying at the hands of my own family." He turned his sore neck and turned over vigorously, the pain in his back and buttocks was still there, but it was much better than that day.

He reached out to take the note on the small table, but tore it up and swallowed it without even looking at it, and then took a few sips of water from the cup on the bedside. In fact, the existence of Jiao Shizhi could not completely replace They, there is no shortage of servants around every master in this palace, but this person always has a rank, what is the difference between a eunuch and a guard who serve close to him?There was nothing wrong with their initial approach, it was because they guessed Jiao Shizhi's position wrongly.

In their eyes, Jiao Shizhi was just a bodyguard, but in the eyes of the prince, he was not just a bodyguard.Their judgments based on past experience work against them.

Liu Jin is not stupid, there are not many things that can make him stumble, if he stumbles once now, he will not stumble a second time!

The people on this side secretly decided that Jiao Shizhi's side was in a state of desperation and didn't know that anyone was thinking about things related to him.

Speaking of which, it has been three months since Jiao Shizhi entered the palace. During these three months, he has been serving as the prince's personal bodyguard, obediently following the prince to and from school, basically never leaving the East Palace.

Does it look normal?

But if this His Royal Highness is Zhu Houzhao, it would be very abnormal!

What kind of temperament is Zhu Houzhao?The master who needs someone to watch all day, otherwise why there are only eight eunuchs in the East Palace!It's not because there are few people who can't see it.This master can play all over the palace, and the place he wants to visit the most is outside the palace. The guards in the imperial city wish they had four eyes, so they can see every corner and corner, so that they don't let them go. His Royal Highness played too far and had an accident.

Then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with such a temperament stayed honestly in the East Palace for three months, which is a great miracle~ Although occasionally there will be some troubles, such as forcing the guards to cook or something, but compared to before I don't know how many times better my deeds have been.

Jiao Shizhi didn't know about the little master's previous deeds. Although he had heard a lot of things before and after entering the palace, after entering the palace, Jiao Shizhi always felt that the prince was just a child with a lively personality. In addition to the majesty of the royal family, he is also a smart and sensitive person, but there is nothing more.After all, what he sees with his so-called foresight ability is often unexpected. Jiao Shizhi has learned not to take the content of those evaluations seriously, but just silently write them down in his heart for emergencies.

until today...

Jiao Shizhi looked at the things in Zhu Houzhao's hands calmly, and said calmly: "Your Highness, what do you mean?" Zhu Houzhao said happily: "I heard that there is a Lantern Festival outside the palace today, let's sneak out to have a look Bar."

"Your Highness must have heard it wrong." Jiao Shizhi said seriously, and then nodded the clothes in the crown prince's hand, "People outside the palace don't dress like this either, no wonder the clothes His Highness wore last time looked so strange. "

Zhu Houzhao raised his eyebrows, glanced at his clothes, "What's so strange?" He put aside the issue of the Lantern Festival for the time being.

Jiao Shizhi said softly: "After all, the clothes in this palace are made in-house. These materials are not used by ordinary people, so at that time I guessed that His Highness probably sneaked out of some rich family." Zhu Houzhao hugged Started, and said a little depressed: "In this way, isn't it a shining fat sheep?"

Jiao Shizhi held back his smile, wondering where the prince learned the slang words. Fortunately, that street was not too far from the palace area at that time, and idle hooligans did not dare to go there to find trouble, otherwise the prince would really It is the little fat sheep in his mouth.Zhu Houzhao put the clothes on the table, raised his eyebrows, and there was a faint smile in his eyes, "In that case, I'll ask someone to find another clothes, it's just a little more troublesome. By the way, why did I hear wrong?" The prince humbly Ask for help, Jiao Shizhi has no choice but to help his forehead.

"The Lantern Festival in the capital is mostly during the Lantern Festival, so it's definitely not possible to go out now. Your Highness, even if you find suitable clothes, you won't be able to go out." Jiao Shizhi said.

"Why?" Zhu Houzhao's big eyes were full of doubts, and his small face was slightly wrinkled.

"Because I heard it." Following the sound, there was a "click" outside the door, and Emperor Hongzhi walked in, followed by Liu Tao who had just taken over as the eunuch.

The previous owner of this seat was Li Guang who had just committed suicide. Li Guang was originally trusted by Emperor Hongzhi, but in private, he corrupted the law, showed off his power, and ran rampant in the palace by means of performing sacrifices. He committed suicide in fear of crime, but a lot of criminal evidence was found in his home, which made Emperor Hongzhi, a gentle emperor, furious. Although the matter was suppressed, many people were still involved.Perhaps it was also because of this that he punished the servant of the East Palace so severely for this matter.

Zhu Houzhao was taken aback for a moment, then approached Emperor Hongzhi with a sneer, and before he could speak, Emperor Hongzhi pinched his cheeks, and said slightly angrily: "The last time you sneaked out of the palace and made a fuss was not enough, now you want to anger your mother again?" The matter of the prince's sneaking out of the palace was hidden from the previous court, but there are still many people in the harem who know about it. After this, the people in the previous court also knew about it. The impeachment memorials during that period were overwhelming.But the emperor is only such a son, no matter how impeached he is, he can't make the prince abolished, right?Emperor Hongzhi took it as a copybook.

"Why did the father come here? I shouldn't have done anything bad recently, right?" Zhu Houzhao touched his chin. He has been quite honest recently. Is it possible that some old man turned over old scores again?Hiss~ I should have plucked more of their beards if I knew it earlier!

"It's because you're too honest, that's why I came to take a look." As the father, Emperor Hongzhi buried his son without hesitation, and then his eyes fell on the guard who was saluting behind him. His clothes looked... He glanced at the prince , I knew in my heart that it must be the prince's fault.

Zhu Houzhao pulled him up with a smile, but Jiao Shizhi couldn't see the details of his clothes. Could it be that Emperor Hongzhi couldn't see it?The bodyguard's uniform seemed ordinary, but it was actually warm in winter and cool in summer and repelled mosquitoes, but it was made of rare tributes.No wonder I spent so long at the queen's place some time ago and asked for several bolts of fabric. It turned out that it was for this.

Jiao Shizhi felt that the emperor's eyes stayed on him for a long time, but he didn't know the reason, but then moved away.He didn't take this to heart either, and stood aside a few steps, so as not to hinder the communication between father and son.

Emperor Hongzhi really wanted to see the crown prince when he came to the East Palace. During this period of time, the crown prince was quite peaceful, which made people a little scared. For this reason, he specially picked a crown prince to come quietly when he was bound to be there. Get someone to report, otherwise you won't be able to hear Zhu Houzhao's thoughts.

Zhu Houzhao didn't care about it, he was thinking too much, and his father would not blame him.It's just that Jiao Shizhi's reaction just now made him a little uncomfortable. How should I put it, Jiao Shizhi when Emperor Hongzhi was there was different from the Jiao Shizhi he usually saw.

Quiet, obedient, and well-behaved, this is Jiao Shizhi now.

The same is true of Jiao Shizhi on weekdays, but it is fresh, whether it is the calmness of his eyebrows or the indifference of his words, no matter how quiet he is, they are all fresh.

He doesn't like the Jiao Shizhi now, because it is exactly the same as the Jiao Shizhi he saw when he entered the palace for the first time. The distance between the upper hall and the lower hall is uncomfortably large.

After Emperor Hongzhi left, Zhu Houzhao threw himself on Jiao Shizhi, feeling the doubtful light in his eyes, and suddenly squinted his eyes, grabbed Jiao Shizhi's cheek, "Shizhi, you It’s better to stay like this forever.”

Jiao Shizhi was at a loss, what does this mean?

But Zhu Houzhao jumped down and started laughing with his hands behind his back.
