[Ming Dynasty] I seem to know too much

When Jiao Jun walked in front of the prince, he didn't know exactly what happened, but he knew that it would definitely not be a good thing, because Zhu Houzhao's face was really difficult... No, no, it should be said that his face was silent and expressionless , It really made Jiao Jun panic, which is completely different from the prince who seemed to be smiling all the time just now.

"Jiao Jun?" He heard the prince's voice whispering at the end, as if to confirm whether it was this person.

"The minister is here."

"Where's your son?" Following Jiao Jun's affirmation, Zhu Houzhao glanced at him casually, and then the next question was thrown out.

Jiao Jun was caught off guard by this question, and didn't know how to answer for a while. When he realized that the atmosphere became more condensed with his silence, he hurriedly said, "The son of the humble minister committed a serious crime. I think he can't do it." Assuming the duty of guarding His Highness, he did not bring him into the palace."

Greater than?Zhu Houzhao raised his eyebrows, looked down at the list on the table, "Your son's name is Jiao Shizhi?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, that's right."

Zhu Houzhao turned his head and looked at Liu Jin who was standing behind him, "Take my waist card, now go to Jiao's house and bring Jiao Shizhi into the palace for me." Liu Jin was responsible for collecting the information. He also remembered clearly, and immediately took orders to leave.

Emperor Hongzhi just watched from the side the whole time, and didn't try to stop his son from doing anything. He just patted his hand lightly, and then turned his attention to the competition on the court.Zhu Houzhao narrowed his eyes slightly, then nodded, got up and walked towards the apse. Behind him, Mr. Jiao was led away in the same direction by two strong and powerful eunuchs.

The servant of the Ministry of Rites, Jiao Fang, looked at her son who was competing in the palace, and then at Mr. Jiao who was taken away by the prince just now. It seemed that something was out of control... Although this banquet was just a nonsense of the prince, but for them It is also a good opportunity for these low-level officials.As long as he can become the close bodyguard of the prince, he will almost have a sunny avenue.

Now apart from the prince, the emperor has no other heirs. In the harem, the relationship between the emperor and the empress is harmonious, and there are no other concubines.If nothing else happened, the crown prince would be the next emperor for sure, and there was nothing wrong with being such a bodyguard beside His Highness.Except for the children of the clan who were arranged elsewhere, they were not ashamed of this incident.Top officials have their places to go, and they have their own places to go.

It's just the Jiao family... Jiao Fang's eyebrows darkened, and she was annoyed by what happened a few days ago. If Jiao Jun's mother hadn't had an old relationship with his mother, it would be impossible for him to bring him in today. guy!If it weren't for the rumors outside, Qiong'er's chances would be much higher today.

Everyone has their own thoughts, and when they were spying on each other, a carriage was coming out of the palace gate, rushing to the destination in a hurry, and they did not dare to neglect at all.

No one dared to slack off when His Royal Highness got angry.

Jiaofu.

"Master, why did you pack your clothes by yourself today?" Liu Fang went to the small kitchen to get some tea. Since Jiao Shizhi was released again, although Jiao Shizhi was not allowed to go out, Liu Fang wanted something Still pretty easy.After all, those who sit down can't figure out the meaning of the people above. If they accidentally offend the young master completely, and he turns around again, wouldn't they be asking for trouble.

Jiao Shizhi knew what they were thinking, but he didn't bother to pay attention.He buried himself in the closet and rummaged for a long time, then said in a deep voice, "I remember my mother made me clothes, but at that time the color didn't suit me so I put them away. Where did you put them away?" When I was young, I didn't like too many people around me, so I only had Liu Fang as a book boy, and Liu Fang was responsible for most of the things around him.

Liu Fang was taken aback, and looked at Jiao Shizhi cautiously, making sure that he was not angry before moving to a corner to take out a small package.

That dress was the last one Gong made for Jiao Shizhi before his death, and he left after not long after finishing.Although the color didn't match the funeral, the most important reason was that Jiao Shizhi was too sad at the time, afraid that he would be emotionally affected by the scene, so Liu Fang packed it up.

Jiao Shizhi took the small package, and after unpacking it, a set of clothes quietly appeared in front of him, it was a straight body.The straight body has undergone many changes since it was handed down in the Song Dynasty. Now it is mostly the common clothes of Confucian scholars, but it is still mainly blue and black, while the one made by the Gong family is red.

He lightly stroked the layer of clothing, unexpectedly, and reasonably found that it was embroidered with dense dark patterns, but they were not obvious, and only appeared faintly with his movements.He will never know what Gong Shi was thinking when she embroidered this dress stitch by stitch, nor what she expected at the last moment.

Sighing lightly, Jiao Shizhi looked at Liu Fang and said softly, "You go out first."

Liu Fang clearly knew what the young master was going to do, she nodded and quietly retreated.Jiao Shizhi walked around behind the screen, took off his original clothes, and put on a straight body made by Gong himself.Straight body, Futou, sash, and accessories, he put on one by one by himself, tidied it up, and did not come out from behind the screen until everything was decorated.

Before he stood in front of the bronze mirror, Liu Fang's eager voice came from outside the door, "Young master, someone is coming from the palace!" Although he was anxious, he knew that the young master was changing clothes now, so he didn't dare to go in directly. The doorway raised the volume.

Jiao Shizhi was stunned, turned his head to look at the bronze mirror a few steps away, and opened the door slowly.Mother's craftsmanship will not be bad, if you don't look at it, don't look at it.

"Master, you finally..." Liu Fang's voice stopped abruptly, and her eyes fell on Jiao Shizhi's clothes, as if she saw some amazing monster.Jiao Shizhi glanced at himself in surprise, raised his head and gave Liu Fang a chestnut, "Is there anything strange about this dress?" It seems that I still have to go back and see what doesn't fit.

"No, no." Liu Fang came back to her senses in a jerk, grabbed Jiao Shizhi who had returned to the room, tried her best to let her eyes fall on her clothes and stopped looking at Jiao Shizhi, "Master, go to the flower hall quickly, The envoy from the palace is already waiting there, Madam Yang just sent someone to urge her."

Jiao Shizhi nodded, and looked at the butler who was also waiting beside him... Strange, today's butler is completely different from the bossy one some time ago, and a little more... Dumbfounded?Jiao Shizhi noticed it, but he didn't have time to think about it. He was more worried about the people coming from the palace.

Why do people come from the palace?He couldn't figure out how to do this.

That's because of Jiao Shizhi's so-called "committing a crime", so Mr. Jiao never thought of telling him about it, so he didn't even know that if it didn't happen, he should be in the palace now.

Following the footsteps of the housekeeper in front, Jiao Shizhi only felt that the housekeeper with old arms and legs ran quite fast today. If it wasn't for the tense moment now, he would really find it inexplicably funny.

"Eunuch Liu, the Eldest Young Master is here." The steward walked into the flower hall first, bowed his waist and said, not daring to look up at the palace servant in front of him.It was this person who led people straight into Jiao's residence just now, with a strong aura, he didn't take Jiao's residence seriously at all.If Mrs. Yang hadn't recognized the token in Liu Jin's hand in a hurry and hadn't offended them, otherwise... now they don't know what will happen to them.

Liu Jin waved her hand impatiently. Just as she was about to say something, her eyes fell on the person behind the butler, and suddenly she couldn't utter the words.

"Cough cough..."

Just as Jiao Shizhi saw what the people from the palace looked like, he heard a series of coughing sounds. Liu Jin, who was majestic just now, coughed out of breath, and his whole face turned red.The housekeeper was shocked, and hurried up to appease him. Liu Jin pushed him away, panted and said, "Master Jiao, Your Highness the Crown Prince invites you into the palace, and please follow the villain." He bowed respectfully and said, not at all The arrogance when facing Yang.

Liu Jin's words shocked everyone present, including Yang Shi who had been silent since just now. Her face was not very good-looking since she confirmed that this group of people came from the palace just now, and her face turned pale after hearing these words. , almost tore the handkerchief in his hand.

Only Jiao Shi's face was bewildered, His Royal Highness invited him into the palace?He had never met the prince before, how could he be so lucky to be summoned by him?

Looking at Jiao Shizhi's ignorant eyes, Liu Jin understood that according to what Jiao Jun said, he might not have even told Jiao Shizhi about this matter.He breathed a sigh of relief and said softly: "The emperor ordered all officials above the fifth rank to bring their children who have reached the age of ten to enter the palace for His Royal Highness to choose guards. You are also within range, so His Royal Highness specially ordered a villain to come and bring them to the palace." You enter the palace."

Selection, entry into the palace, guards... Jiao Shizhi suddenly understood why Jiao Jun would suddenly release him from the woodshed, and contradictoryly released rumors, and his purpose fell here.He smiled bitterly in his heart, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Father, father, how much do you hate your child, that you deny everything without even thinking about it?

Now that he knew the reason, Jiao Shizhi put aside all his emotions and said in a low voice, "I would like to invite my father-in-law to lead me to go."

"Please."

Outside the Jiao Mansion, two steeds kicked their hooves and neighed loudly, pulling the people in the carriage back to the way they had come just now, leaving only smoke and dust billowing behind them.

Liu Fang spat several times before clearing the smoke from her mouth, and suddenly remembered the appearance of the young master just now.

When the young master is wearing red clothes, he really looks good.
