[Ming Dynasty] I seem to know too much

Jiao Shizhi was walking on the road as usual, but he met a clean and bright child squatting on the corner of the street. There was a little bit of savagery between his brows, and his delicate face was still childish. There was a little bit of grievance on his slightly dazed little face.

Such a character should never be just an ordinary child.

[The emperor likes to swim. 】

The moment Jiao Shizhi saw the child seriously, such a strange sentence suddenly flashed in his mind.He stopped in surprise, hesitated for a while and found that there was no problem, and laughed at himself for thinking wildly.Presumably I just suddenly remembered some books and texts just now.

Seeing the child's distressed appearance, Jiao Shizhi was afraid that someone was lost, so he asked aloud, "What's wrong with you?" After thinking about it, he knelt down, took out a handkerchief and handed it to the other party, "My name is Jiao. Suitable."

Watching the child take the handkerchief silently, Jiao Shizhi was careful, and he could see the slight damage of the other party's clothes at a glance, "I see that your appearance is extraordinary but your clothes are damaged, you must have encountered some trouble, you want to go with me to the teahouse Is it?" It was just that the words were just out of my mouth, and I was a little shy, why do these words feel like abducting a child?

The child seemed to be used to being flattered, and he didn't pay much attention to what Jiao Shi said before, but was very interested in what he said in the second half.The depression in my heart was dissipated by Jiao Shizhi's words, and he said generously: "In that case, thank you very much. My mother likes to call me Shou'er, so you should call me that too."

He looked at the kind face of the person in front of him, and he was happy in his heart, but he spoke frankly.

After all, he really encountered a lot of trouble.

-

When Zhu Houzhao was eight years old, all the maids and eunuchs in the palace avoided him.

As the most beloved and only son of Emperor Hongzhi, serving by his side should be the most popular job, but this little master is too naughty, and he likes to have fun even more under the service of the eunuchs in the East Palace. He has teased countless palace people, but some of them spoke in distress.

This developed to a certain day, that is, today, the little master couldn't bear the loneliness, slipped into the imperial dining room, hid in the vegetable cart and went out!

Zhu Houzhao, who saw the world outside the palace for the first time, acted like a countryman who had just entered the city. Fortunately, he cleverly changed the casual clothes of the East Palace eunuch before he came out. The medium fabric would not make him stand out.

Naturally, no one would dare to do business on the official road outside the imperial city, but after a few more streets, the bustling voices became more and more lively.Although Zhu Houzhao was naughty, he was also very smart. After observing for a few times, he found that people outside the palace needed money, which reminded him of the monthly salary Liu Jin once said.

It is rare for him to hold his breath a little, standing on the corner of the street with a flat mouth, and there is a little bit of luster in his big round eyes. If he knew that he would not get rid of them when he went out today, he would never wear anything other than accessories on his body .

Wait... Zhu Houzhao took out the jade pendant that he put in when changing clothes from his arms. This thing should be quite valuable, right?

In the early morning, the little bean curd lady next door had just finished finishing things when she saw a handsome young man stepping into the pawnshop. His cute appearance made her laugh lowly even after she had just confinement. The charming smile caught the eyes of the female customer who bought tofu.However, in just a moment, the little lady saw the young man come out dejectedly.She was doing business near the pawnshop, so she naturally knew that the owner of the pawnshop was very harsh and always tried to keep the price down, and this young man thought it would be the same.

When the little boy passed by the tofu shop with his head down, the little lady couldn't help but greet him.Following her voice, the little boy raised his head in a daze. The little lady's motherly spirit was blown away by her appearance. She not only comforted him with a few words, but also brought him a bowl of tofu nao. It calmed down Zhu Houzhao, who was originally impetuous.

After staring at the yellow porcelain bowl for several times, Zhu Houzhao finally couldn't help eating a spoonful. The sweet and greasy taste soothed his mood at once, and he couldn't help eating the second and third spoonfuls.

A small voice came from the ear, it was the guest teasing the little lady, saying that she had taken a fancy to the young man's handsomeness, and her husband's family would not allow it.The little lady's soft voice sounded, with incomparable tenderness, "When I gave birth to my child a few days ago, I wished I could hold all the good things in front of him. If something happens to my child outside, I hope Someone will help him in this way, it's just a matter of raising your hands."

Zhu Houzhao pursed his lips, a small dimple appeared at the corner of his mouth.He was very angry just now, although he didn't know how much the silver outside the palace was worth, there was no way his jade pendant was only worth 100 taels of silver.He just passed by the jewelry shop in front of him and took a few glances. Those high-grade ones are still selling at a price of 2000 taels. The pawnshop owner must be cheating on him because of other people!

But this bowl of sweet bean curd appeases him, like a little milk cat that has just been brushed, lazily revealing its belly in the sun, and rolls cutely.

He stretched himself, took out the 100 taels of silver note from his pocket, looked at the silver note and sneered twice, the pawnshop owner fooled him for a fool, and brought someone to smash the shop when he returned!

After secretly getting angry, the current Zhu Houzhao looked at this ticket in distress. This bowl of sugar water...should not be worth 100 taels, but he has nothing on him.The woman just now was very gentle, and the gentle warmth reminded him of the queen mother in the harem. Zhu Houzhao didn't want to eat a big family.

When he was in distress, there was a noise outside the door. He turned his head in surprise, but saw a group of people kicking away the stalls fiercely. The person at the head grabbed the little lady's hand and laughed, "You Your husband has been imprisoned for stealing just now, if you had already obeyed our master, your husband would not have to suffer now." The little lady was struggling to escape, but he twisted her wrist all of a sudden, I wept in pain.

As soon as those people came, they frightened away all the customers in the store, including the people who were sitting in the store, and Zhu Houzhao was left alone, while the rest entered the store and smashed them at will.Seeing that Zhu Houzhao was still sitting on the seat with a stern face, he glared and shouted: "You boy, when Mr. Chen is doing business, you still dare to sit here swaggeringly? Get out!" When I picked up the ticket, my eyes lit up suddenly, and I stretched out my hand unconsciously, "Hmph, this silver ticket is the fee for your eyes, and reward us brothers well, so as not to make a trip in vain."

Zhu Houzhao had also learned boxing. When he saw the man's outstretched hand, he raised his foot and kicked the man in the abdomen, causing him to back several steps.The man with the horizontal face was kicked unknowingly, and immediately became furious, and stepped forward in twos and threes to tear him off.Zhu Houzhao was nimble and dodged several attacks around the storefront.However, he was single and weak, so he was quickly caught and kicked.

The little woman cried out in horror: "Don't touch that child, he is innocent! As long as you don't touch him, I will go with you! Let him go!" It turned out that the woman could see at a glance that she could not run away today. Send it to the uncle's house, I think nothing will happen.Since you can't escape, you can save one person.But despite thinking this way, the little lady couldn't help trembling, tears in her eyes.

The leader has a brain, if this little lady is obedient, it will save things from getting troublesome.He winked at the thugs, but the man with the horizontal face retracted his hand and kicked the leg of the table angrily.The eldest brother looked down on them, but the 100 taels was not a small amount of money to them.

They ransacked the tofu shop after three or two clicks, and then took the people away.

Zhu Houzhao, who was huddled in the corner of the wall, did not speak, and closed his eyes fiercely. His right hand, which had been stepped on several times, held the bank note tightly. The uncontrollable force made the bank note wrinkle up, and finally the round nails pierced the palm of his hand. , the bank note was stained with a few dazzling bright reds.

After the people left, only the onlookers dared to come over, and the people from the government were also late.A few arresters hurried to the front of the store, looking at the mess on the ground, they couldn't bear it, but they just whispered something and planned to leave.

"You have already arrived just now, why didn't you come forward to stop them?" The moment they turned around, a slightly immature voice sounded, and the two arresters behind shivered, feeling a little cold for no reason.The lead policeman frowned and turned his head to look at the half-grown boy who had just sat up, and waved his hand perfunctorily, "This is not something you should care about, why don't you leave the crime scene quickly?"

"The scene of the crime?" Zhu Houzhao's eyes swept across the entire store, and then fell on the policemen, "A crime scene where even the policemen didn't protect them?" The cold voice seemed to be mocking those who just wanted to The catcher turned and left.

"You!!" The leading arrester blushed, turned his hand holding the knife twice, and heard the people beside him discussing, there was no lack of ridicule and curse in their words, and they were ashamed to stay here under the gossip, and hurriedly led the people away. left.

Enduring the pain in his body, Zhu Houzhao randomly found a corner of the street and sat down. He touched the bruise during his movements and couldn't help grinning.This was the first time he had been beaten. Ever since he was a child, Emperor Hongzhi and Empress Zhang loved him so much that they were not willing to move a finger of him.

Hearing the words of the people scattered in twos and twos, Zhu Houzhao realized that the group of people just now were street bullies on this street, not to mention being tyrannical, and having an affair with the youngest son of Mr. Chen on the East Street.And this Mr. Chen seems to have heard that he has some connection with the eunuchs in the palace.No matter how much the youngest son of the Chen family hurt and kidnapped, the government didn't dare to take care of him.

The little lady in the tofu shop had been spotted a long time ago, but she was unable to move due to her pregnancy. Not long after she was confinement, the Chen family made a move.

"Huh, the Chen family..." Zhu Houzhao groaned and chirped twice, cleaned up the damaged clothes on his body, and groped all over his pockets, and found that he didn't even have a seal to confirm his identity bring.

That's a bit of a hassle.

Zhu Houzhao originally wanted to take someone to smash the Chen family, but now he has no credentials, and Liu Jin and others are not guarding him. No one can prove his identity. It is really not reconciled to ask him to go back in such a disheveled manner. No one has ever dared to bully him like this!

"what happened to you?"

At this moment, Zhu Houzhao heard a crisp voice, like refreshing cold water in summer, which eased his extremely depressed mood.

He raised his head and looked at the person standing in front of him.

It was a boy who was about the same age as him.Zhu Houzhao's eyes were sharp, and he could tell at a glance that the clothes he was wearing were only average, but they were clean and tidy, so he should be considered a good person.

With a smile on his lips, the young man squatted down regardless of his clothes, took out a white handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Zhu Houzhao, "My name is Jiao Shizhi."
