Crossing the East Palace

Tang Luojin is not only the queen's legitimate son, but also the prince who was conferred the title of King Zhao when he was one year old.

Although she was young, Tang Luojin's photographic memory and the anecdote about catching Zhou had already spread all over the world.Even though he is still young and lives in Fujian for various reasons, this cannot stop many people from being willing to serve King Zhao.

Zelan's father and elder brother had already expressed this clearly, and his second brother Shi Yuan had also mentioned to Zelan that he was willing to serve King Zhao.It's just that Ze Lan was loyal, and couldn't bear Tang Luojin's embarrassment, so she persisted, only mentioning her father and brother who would take the exam, but not Shi Yuan, who only took the exam as a scholar and didn't want to make progress.

At this time, when Tang Luojin mentioned Shi Yuan, Ze Lan was overjoyed, and immediately said: "Shi Yuan is willing. He mentioned it to the servant before, but the servant was just thinking about it, and the father and brother of the servant are fine. Those who continue to take the Jinshi examination will have an official position and the status of being able to work for His Highness. However, Shi Yuancai is just a small scholar. Although he has begged his servants many times and wants to work for His Highness, the servants dare not mention him. , so as not to embarrass His Highness. Now that His Highness is willing to use him, it is Shi Yuan's blessing, and he may not be happy in time."

Hearing this, Tang Luojin wanted to smile, but he had pretended to be stupid for too long and his face was paralyzed. Sometimes he could laugh when he wanted to, but sometimes he tried hard for a long time, but he couldn't.

——It will be fine in about two years.

Tang Luojin embraced this idea, didn't laugh and didn't care too much, she just said: "Shi Chonglei and Shi Fang are fine, I want to use Shi Yuan, but I want him to be a dandy, it will take a few years before he can Tell him to turn his prodigal son back. And after turning back, it’s enough to be a Jinshi, and a person with a family background is also required. Sister Zelan will go back and tell him everything I say, and if he really agrees, then let him come to see me.”

The smile on Ze Lan's face faded away, and she kowtowed Tang Luojin three times.

Two days later, not only Shi Yuan came, but Ze Lan's younger sister Shi Mei also came.

Shi Yuan is two years younger than Zelan, and is now ten to eight years old; Shi Mei is four years younger than Zelan, exactly twenty-eight years old.

When the two came, Tang Luojin and Ning Jun Chichang were picking fighting cocks, planning to bring a few of them to Emperor Tianyuan when they left Fujian.

Ning Junchi was taller than Tang Luojin, and he saw Ze Lan bringing the two of them coming, and when he saw the appearance of the two, he looked at Ze Lan.

Ze Lan bowed her knees and saluted, seeing Ning Junchi looking at her, said with a smile: "This is the younger brother and sister of the servant girl, Tete came to greet His Highness."

Ning Junchi raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at Tang Luojin.

Tang Luojin pretended not to see Ning Junchi's gaze, and waved: "Shi Yuan, come here, look how good this king is."

Shi Yuan was clever, and immediately stepped forward with a smile, looked at the chickens in the cage in a circle for a while, scratched his head, and could only say: "If your Highness asks the students, for example, which brothel has more beauties? Students may know which gambling house has less hands and feet. But this chicken...students only know how powerful it is, but they don't know anything about it." Afterwards, as if showing off, at Tang Luojin's age, It's hard to talk about the brothel and Chu hall, once he boasted, he talked about all kinds of gambling techniques in the gambling hall one by one.

Tang Luojin didn't speak, Ning Junchi listened for a while, and then reprimanded: "If you claim to be a student, then you have fame. If you have fame, you don't study hard, work hard for the imperial examination, and serve the court. How can you study well?" All of my efforts are spent on brothels, Chu halls and gambling halls? Isn’t it a disappointment of talent?”

Ze Lan and Shi Mei knelt down immediately, Shi Yuan seemed to curl his lips, and then knelt down with disapproval.

Tangluo Jinfang said, "cockfighting is a gamble, and the casino is also a gamble. Since it's all a gamble, how can you not go there? Uncle is too worried."

Ning Junchi frowned slightly.

Tang Luojin waved his hand and said: "Forget it, Ze Lan will take them to your room to talk." Then he looked at the two of them and said, "Since they are Ze Lan's younger siblings, each of them will give you two pieces of brocade."

Zelan left with the two of them.

Ning Junchi felt that he was Tang Luojin's uncle. Tang Luojin went to Fujian, and he was the only elder by his side. He felt that he could not let Tang Luojin take a detour, so he couldn't help "brainwashing" Tang Luojin repeatedly in order to make Tang Luojin Jinmo is going to see Zelan's younger brother who likes gambling and brothels again.

With a sullen face, Tang Luojin tried to walk towards the Buddhist hall to hide from the quiet.

Ning Junchi still refused to let him go, followed closely behind, and said relentlessly, "Cockfighting and cricket fighting are both elegant things. Is it a matter of gambling in a gambling hall that can be compared? That Shi Yuan is only seventeen or eighteen years old , I already know about all kinds of gambling, and I am nostalgic for brothels and Chuguan, so it can be seen that there is no one who can do anything. If there is no one available for Xiao Qi, uncle can give it to you. Xiao Qi should not use this kind of people."

Tang Luojin: "..." He used to only know that this third uncle looked like an iceberg in front of outsiders, and he was a little reticent to people he knew well.But today I found out that this "always taciturn" third uncle can sometimes be so chatty that his head will get dizzy with his words.

"What uncle said is very true, I will never see him again." Tang Luojin said with a blank expression on her white and tender smile, "However, Zelan's father and brother are all decent people, and the third brother and sister are also Everything is fine. Zelan is someone close to me, her family, and someone who is going to be an official in the future, but I can't see her."

Ning Junchi came to care about Tang Luojin, and he naturally knew that Ze Lan, who was beside Tang Luojin, had found her family.Ze Lan's father and brother are already a matter of judging people, and he knew it, so he nodded after hearing the words: "That's all."

On the other end, Zelan's younger siblings said worriedly, "Duke Xin has said so, will His Highness still see us?"

Zelan didn't think much of it either.

Although His Royal Highness has always had ideas, but he is too young after all, and he has never refuted the words of Duke Xin very clearly.Just now that Lord Xin Guo showed his dislike for his second brother in this way, in Ze Lan's heart, it really doesn't matter at this moment.

"Just wait a little longer." Ze Lan sighed, "Second brother is considered witty just now, if His Highness likes second brother's wit, he will use him. If not..."

In Shi Yuan's appearance, there is a kind of playful look.He was wearing a neat Confucian uniform before, but today Tete changed into a brocade robe, and he really looks like a dandy.

After hearing what elder sister said, he had no choice but to say: "If Your Highness likes me, it will be the best. If you don't like me, then don't delay my younger sister's affairs."

Shi Mei also looked at Ze Lan nervously.

Ze Lan knew that Shi Mei had been smart since she was a child, and she had studied hard in medical books, because she was sold to a brothel by her grandmother when she was seven years old, although she was beaten severely in the brothel and thrown into the firewood shed for a night.But even so, by the time the second question's father and brother rushed to redeem her, her reputation had already been completely ruined.

The reason why Shi Mei was named "Mei" by his father is because of his natural beauty and beauty.Because of this, Shi Mei's grandmother looked down on her even more, even inferior to her sister Zelan, and sold her directly to a brothel. Even if she was redeemed the next day, her reputation was ruined.

Shi Mei returned home from the brothel, and after recovering from her illness, she refused to wear women's clothes.Later, when they moved, there was a medical clinic in front of their house, so Shi Mei wore men's clothing and learned medical skills from the old doctor in the medical clinic.

Shi Chonglei knew he was sorry for this daughter, and seeing that she had made up her mind, she was young at that time, and there were only the old doctor, his wife, and a maid in the old doctor's house, so he agreed.

But how did Shi Chonglei know that Shi Mei has been studying for nearly seven years, and the Shi family came to Fujian two years ago.Shi Chonglei and his son treated the illness, Shi Mei wore men's clothes, smeared her face, and learned medical skills from Master Zhishan's disciple for two years.

Although when it comes to medical skills, Shi Mei is young and can't compare to those gray-haired old doctors.However, when Master Zhishan's disciple taught Shi Mei, it seemed that he had learned from Master Zhishan that he taught Shi Mei more about "poison", all kinds of common or rare poisons.Fortunately, Shi Mei is born with intelligence, so she can learn these things with ease.

"Don't worry, Meier." Ze Lan patted the back of Shi Mei's hand, who was finally willing to change the woman's dress, and said, "I dare not say anything else. But Meier, you have a skill, and you look even more innocent. You are a weak girl. Even if His Highness refuses to keep you by his side, he will cherish talents and will not leave you alone."

Shi Mei opened her mouth, wanting to say that no matter how smart the little highness is, he is still just a child, and besides, the little highness has emperors and empresses in his care, can you really value her little medical skills?

Sure enough, Tang Luojin did not see the two brothers and sisters that day.

However, on the second day, after Tang Luojin finished writing the big characters and had breakfast, she asked Ze Lan and He Liu to wait on her and went to the morning market at the foot of Baifo Temple Mountain.

On that day, it was said that only two women were allowed to serve, and the guards around Tang Luojin immediately changed their clothes. There were more than [-] or [-] people, four of them opened the way for the little Tang Luojin, four waited close to him, and the rest Then spread out and follow neither far nor near.

Tang Luojin knew that this was their duty.Furthermore, he is the son of Emperor Tianyuan, and it is said that he is the reincarnation of Emperor Wu, so there must be people who are jealous and plotting, let them follow, they are at ease, and he is also at ease.

Seeing that Tang Luojin was in a good mood, Ze Lan carefully mentioned the matter of her younger siblings.

Tang Luojin didn't forget this incident, so she didn't mention Shi Yuan, but Shi Mei: "Shi Mei's medical skills, Master Zhishan mentioned to me. Although Shi Mei is young, she is also quite talented. "Especially when it comes to poison, Shi Mei is not good at making poison, but her sense of smell and taste are extremely sensitive. She is born to be a doctor, and she is best at distinguishing various poisons, so she said, "If she doesn't want to marry now, come Here, it’s fine to be a female officer for a few years. If she is loyal to me, for Sister Zelan’s sake, no matter whether she wants to marry or not in the future, I will make the decision for her.”

Zelan's eyes turned red, she let out a soft "hey" and stopped talking.

It's not that she didn't want to say it, but she didn't dare to say it.She was afraid that if she opened her mouth, she would cry.

Tang Luojin didn't seem to notice, thought for a while, and said: "Speaking of which, Sister Zelan and Sister Heliu have also been with me for a long time, so it's time to be promoted to be a female officer."

Heliu and Zelan thanked each other without mentioning it.

Tang Luojin mentioned Shi Mei, but didn't mention Shi Yuan, Ze Lan thought that Tang Luojin didn't like Shi Yuan anymore, sighed, and had to accept her fate.

Unexpectedly, Shi Yuanzhen went to the gambling shop, won 1000 taels, 500 taels were given to the family, and the remaining 500 taels, 300 taels went to buy a Qinger, and the remaining 200 taels, bought a In the yard, a few servants and servants were placed, and they ran to gamble again.

After hearing this, Ze Lan realized that His Royal Highness still used his younger brother.Although the method used is somewhat different, but that is also Shi Yuan's own wish, isn't it?

If she wanted to climb up and become someone valued by His Highness the Seventh Prince, it was not enough just to rely on the face of her elder sister serving His Highness.

Leaving aside the matter of the Shi family, in the blink of an eye it will be the 26th of March in the tenth year of Tianyuan, which is Tang Luojin's birthday.

This morning, Tang Luojin was pulled from the bed early in the morning, took a bath and changed clothes, and without breakfast, she climbed up the mountain of Baifo Temple step by step, slowly.

Master Zhishan said two years ago that Tang Luojin had to devote himself to worshiping Buddha at the foot of the mountain for two years before he could divination for him.

Now that two years have passed, Tang Luojin naturally wants to go up the mountain.

At the gate of Debaifo Temple, under the three red and gold characters, Master Zhishan was waiting for him, just like two years ago, wearing a blue cassock and twisting Buddhist beads in his hands.

Tang Luojin walked up to Master Zhi Shan with a stern face, and was about to ask, when Master Zhi Shan smiled compassionately at him, then bent down and gave him a deep bow.

The monks behind Master Zhishan also bowed deeply.

The scene was spectacular.

Tang Luojin: "!!!"

"My Buddha is merciful, the day when the old monk will be enthroned is approaching, so I will advance a hundred years in advance, for the prosperity of Datang, and for the people of Datang, I thank the little benefactor of Tang."

Master Zhishan finished speaking, straightened up, chanted the Buddha's name again, and said: "Those who have gone are not to be warned, but those who come are still to be pursued. Goodness is goodness. Little benefactor Tang, let's wait and see the future. I am going here, just sit down The day of transformation."

Then he nodded slightly, and walked away briskly.

He walked away briskly.

gone!

Walk like a fly!

Tang Luojin: "..."
