A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City

Jiuzhu thought that His Royal Highness would take her to some exquisite music place?? Or any place that talented and beautiful women love to go, but he did not expect His Highness to bring her to a bridge.

There are a few solitary red lanterns hanging on the bridge, and few pedestrians pass by, so it is very deserted. There are lights drifting slowly across the river, like a lazy shooting star.

"Your Highness, what are you showing me?" Jiuzhu looked around curiously.

"Shh, it's here." King Chen pointed to the underside of the bridge, and a wooden boat slowly went upstream. There were two people on the boat. Jiuzhu noticed that the two had fishing nets in their hands.

"I still have to fish during the Lantern Festival, is there any fish in this river?" Jiuzhu looked around curiously.

Then she saw that these two people used fishing nets to catch the lamps floating on the river one by one.

Jiuzhu: "..."

"Every year, many people put lights on the river, causing countless dirt to float on the river. Later, Jing Zhaoyin came up with a way to send someone to salvage the lights from the lower reaches of the river." King Chen didn't tell Jiuzhu , When I was young and ignorant, I also let go of the river lamp once.

"The sincerity is the spirit, and the sincerity is the spirit." Jiuzhu pointed and made a Taoist etiquette: "God will understand everyone."

Then the two of them lay on the side of the bridge like this, watching the fishing for lanterns for a long time.

Ever since he found out that his lanterns were picked up, King Chen had a hobby of watching other people's lanterns being picked up. Because he stood in a secluded place every year to watch people pick up lanterns, other brothers thought he didn't like to join the Lantern Festival. of liveliness.

"It's almost time." King Chen took out two red ropes from his sleeves, walked down to a tree with Jiuzhu, and handed one of the red ropes to her: "Come on, tie this to the tree. ."

Jiu Zhu followed his example and tiptoed to tie the red rope to the branch: "Your Highness, what does this mean?"

"It means peace and security, no disease or disaster." King Chen released his hand, looked at the red rope tied together by the two, and smiled: "Let's go, I'll take you home."

As soon as I finished speaking, I saw a pair of lovers kissing me and me standing under the tree, tied with red ropes.

"Lang Jun, we are tied together with red ropes, and we will never be separated again."

"Of course, I only have you in my heart."

King Chen coughed: "Let's go, these two must be outsiders who don't understand the customs of the capital."

"Oh." Jiuzhu looked back at the pair of lovers, nodded slowly, and chose to believe His Highness's words.

Only the dragon guards who followed behind the two felt that they couldn't hold back their laughter.

Who doesn't know the local people in Beijing, during the Lantern Festival, lovers use red ropes to tie together, which means longevity and never parting?

How easy it is to lie now, how embarrassing it is to be exposed later.

Man, you will always be high-spirited when you lie, and look around for something else when you expose it.

King Chen took Jiuzhu's hand and walked slowly, but there was still time to reach the door of Ming's house. He asked the guardian dragon guard to knock on the door, and when the door of Ming's house opened, he let go of Jiuzhu's hand: "Go back and go to bed early."

Jiuzhu nodded obediently, lifted her skirt up the steps, and King Chen looked at her from the spot.

"His Royal Highness." Jiu Zhu lifted the puppy lamp in his hand: "Thank you for the lamp, Your Highness, I like it very much."

King Chen looked down at the lamp in his hand: "I like this lamp too."

Although she walked several streets, she didn't buy it, but he bought it.

Perhaps, this is the heart of it.

Jiuzhu walked into the yard with the lantern, and saw her father, mother, and brother all sitting there. The three of them turned their heads to look at her: "Are you back?"

She took a step back in fright: "You are all back?"

"Come and sit." Shen shi glanced at the lamp in Jiuzhu's hand and beckoned her to sit beside him.

"Have you had a good time with His Royal Highness King Chen?" She touched her daughter's hand, feeling warm and not caught in the cold, so she felt relieved.

"Happy." Jiuzhu nodded: "Halfway, I met His Royal Highness King Huai with His Highness, and he said some strange things."

She repeated what King Huai said to her family.

"King Huai's face is naive and careful, and his words can only be taken as true." Ming Jingzhou said, "Princess Huai is the daughter of Wu Mian, the servant of the Ministry of Industry. Although Wu Mian is a little careful, there is not much problem with being a person. You are a good official. In the future, as long as you do not talk about political affairs with Princess Huai in the future, you don’t have to worry too much about the rest.”

"Father, what do you mean, King Huai wants to..." She lowered her voice, "Want to sit in that seat?"

"How many princes don't want to?" Ming Jingzhou analyzed several princes and concubines for Jiuzhu: "The fourth prince loses power, and the one who benefits the most is the prince's eldest son. In the past, the fourth prince was only famous, and although Prince Huai was the eldest son, he was not as good as The fourth prince is popular."

"He said this to King Chen now, not because he really wanted to follow King Chen's lead, but because he was afraid of winning the holy favor of Empress Su." Ming Jingzhou shook his head: "Compared with the previous prince, this prince is far worse. already."

After the Su Clan was sealed, the eldest prince showed his favor to King Chen, which was too eager and too hypocritical.

Unless King Chen is a fool, how can he be fooled.

"What did King Chen say?"

"His Royal Highness didn't say anything, he took me to play." Jiuzhu remembered that after leaving the restaurant, His Highness told her not to pay too much attention to the eldest prince, and couldn't help laughing: "His Royal Highness doesn't seem to like to pay attention to King Huai very much either. "

Ming Jingzhou was relieved, His Majesty was prosperous and powerful this year, and he was afraid that King Chen would have other thoughts that should not have been given to him after being conferred by the Su Clan.

"It's not early, let the child go to bed." Shen shi said: "In the past few days, relatives and friends will send makeup gifts one after another. It will not be a good night's sleep, and I will wake up tomorrow without energy."

Seeing the big wedding approaching day by day, her heart was empty, and she ordered and ordered the dowry list, worrying about what would happen.

Even dreaming at night, I was worried about my daughter getting married,

She... was reluctant.

When King Chen returned to Zhangliu Palace, it was very late. The eunuch waited for him to take off his robe: "His Royal Highness, will it be lively outside the palace tonight?"

"It's lively." King Chen took off the jade crown from his hair: "The spark is brilliant, it's interesting."

He washed his face and remembered the lamp he brought back: "The lamp that this king brought back, please keep it well, don't break it."

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, the little ones are all taken away." The little eunuch saw that his expression was just right, and said boldly: "After the empress is sealed today, our servants up and down the Sixth Palace of Zhang are very happy and want to come to your Highness for you. See you and see..."

"Who brought this up?" King Chen's face sank, and he looked up at the little eunuch, his eyes dark as night: "There are five princes living in Zhangliu Palace, all the palace people come to greet this king?"

The little eunuch fell to the ground in fright.

"Come here, find out who started this matter." King Chen sneered: "After finding out, hand it over to the Dianzhong Province, and by the way, report it to Liu Zhongbao, the head of the internal affairs. This king is too lazy to take care of these trivial matters."

Since the father emperor ascended the throne, even if he walked sideways in the harem, no one dared to make irresponsible remarks. How many people would he lack to greet him?

Early the next morning, Liu Zhongbao heard what happened in Zhangliu Palace.

"When does a noble person like His Royal Highness want to please these things?" Liu Zhongbao sneered: "It's all at this point, and still uneasy, one by one, want to follow in the footsteps of Zheng's?"

"You don't need to stay in the palace if you don't understand things." Liu Zhongbao raised his hand: "According to the rules of the palace, don't see blood, His Royal Highness is about to get married, don't let these cheap skins dirty the palace."

"Eunuch Liu, the Shangyi Bureau lost a maid last night."

"Oh?" Liu Zhongbao rubbed his temples, and immediately a little eunuch stepped forward to serve him.

"What's your name, where did you serve?"

"This maid is named Hongmei, and she was originally a first-class maid by Zheng's side."

"Hongmei?" Liu Zhongbao had some impression of this palace maid: "How did you die?"

"I ate something by mistake. Before I died, I mourned for half an hour before I lost my breath."

"Then let's bury it, don't make any noise, hang two feet of red cloth in her house, don't get bad luck." Liu Zhongbao sighed with emotion: "In this harem, whoever backs the master will have a bad end. Remember each one of you, no matter which master you follow, you will serve them well. The master will humiliate the slave and die, the master will be happy and the slave will be happy, the master will be sad and the slave will be sad.

"Thank you for your teaching." The little eunuchs were silent.

"Little Lizi, Xiaodezi." Liu Zhongbao ordered two little eunuchs: "You accompany the miscellaneous family to see how the Qilin Palace is being cleaned up. His Royal Highness King Chen's wedding is imminent, so there must be no mistakes."

The Qilin Palace is the place where the prince lives. Since the founding of Dacheng, five princes have lived here, and each prince is deeply favored by the emperor.

If it wasn't for the beloved Qilin'er, how could it have the name of the Qilin Temple?

Stepping into the Qilin Palace, all the plants and trees inside are newly replaced, the porch and pillars are all newly painted, and the best incense is used to drive away mosquitoes and ants every day.

Because King Chen specifically stated that there should be no incense in the house, all the houses were filled with flowers and fruits, and new ones were replaced every three hours, so the whole Qilin Palace was filled with the fragrance of flowers and fruits.

Red candles, red silk, red lanterns, and even each of the palace servants serving in the palace were carefully selected. Liu Zhongbao carefully wiped every corner with a white handkerchief, and finally nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad. , all cheer up, if anyone is bad, don't blame the miscellaneous family for being ruthless."

"Father-in-law." A young eunuch walked to Liu Zhongbao's side and whispered, "Father-in-law, there is a message from the fourth imperial concubine that they want a maid who will serve in the Qianyi Pavilion."

Liu Zhongbao flicked his whisk: "Since it was the fourth prince and concubine who spoke in person, of course, this old servant must give this face and send people over."

He remembered that there was also a big palace maid named Bai Shao by the Zheng family. I am afraid that this person was what the fourth prince wanted.

Carrying the package, Bai Shao stood outside Zhang Liugong. She straightened her half-old clothes and walked into the gate of Zhang Liugong with her head bowed.

In the outer courtyard, several princes were doing their own things, and there were palace maids who came in, but no one paid any attention.

"His Royal Highness." An eunuch hurried past her and hurried to King Chen's side: "His Royal Highness, the things you want are not available from the palace."

"If you don't have it, do it now." King Chen clicked his tongue: "Before this king gets married, it must be done well."

Bai Shao dazedly returned to her senses, the wedding of the Ming County Lord and His Royal Highness King Chen was just a few days away.

"Wait first." King Chen called the little eunuch back: "You go out to the palace for this king first, and send this to the Ming county master."

Bai Shao looked around, and what His Royal Highness Prince Chen was holding seemed to...

Is it a letter?

"Your Highness, only letter, nothing else?"

"Why are you talking so much nonsense?" Chen Wang frowned slightly: "If the county chief responds to the letter, you should wait at Ming's house and bring the letter back to this king after she has written it."

The servants of Zhang Liugong were incomparable to the long attendants he was used to.

Gee, I have no eyesight at all!
