Entering Chengmingyuan, Zhu Jinghong had someone set up a chessboard, and he actually asked Baochai for advice.
Of course, these are all face-saving projects, and Zhu Jinghong often asks people personal questions.
“Ms.
The two often consulted each other, and now they are very familiar with each other, so they talk in private like friends.
"If there is anything missing, if you can't talk to Third Sister, you can tell me directly. After all, we are master and apprentice."
"Thirteenth Master, these words are terrible. Don't talk nonsense. I can't even be a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. How can I, a little girl, dare to recognize you as my teacher?"
Picking up the tea cup, Zhu Jinghong said slowly, "I can't even be a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy. You are such a Are you scolding me or praising me?"
Baochai raised his head and said with a cold expression, "Of course I am praising the Thirteenth Master."
The two were chatting like this. After playing a game of chess randomly, Baochai said Chai finally couldn't help but get up.
"Thirteenth Master, I really have something important to do. It would be hard to explain to the Queen after being delayed for so long."
Zhu Jinghong collected the chess pieces on the table and said slowly, " I understand, you just want to leave, you make it sound as if I don’t care.”
“I’ll see you off”
“No need, my dear, farewell”
Before Zhu Jinghong got up, Baochai bowed and took a few steps back, then turned around and ran out.
She has always prided herself on observing etiquette, but now she has to use this rude way to escape Zhu Jinghong's harassment.
After leaving Chengmingyuan, Baochai finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"This Thirteenth Master is too outrageous. You should come to Chengmingyuan less often in the future"
"If something really happens, just ask Zhen Qin to come over"< /p>
“No, no, this girl Zhen Qin is obsessed with the Thirteenth Master. Wouldn’t it be fulfilling her wish to let her come over?”
“But if you let girl Ting come over, she is the Queen’s niece. Isn't it a tower near the water?"
"Forget it, if something happens, I'll do it, just think of it as a small loss."
Baochai murmured in a low voice and strolled towards Shangyi Walked towards the bureau.
Because she was delayed in Chengmingyuan, when she arrived at Shangyi Bureau, Qiqige had just finished washing and dressed up in Ming Dynasty costumes.
"Miss Xue, why are you here?"
The female officers of Shangyi Bureau were extremely polite to Xue Baochai, who came from a "mediocre" background, even though they were of higher rank.
This is all because Baochai has the support of the Thirteenth Master, Zhu Jinghong, behind him. These people in the palace hate to be superior and to be inferior to others. How can they not treat each other with courtesy now?
After Baochai saluted all the female officials, he replied, "The princess ordered me to come over and take the Junggar woman there."
"The girl came just in time. The girl has already washed herself. We I was planning to send him there."
"No need to trouble you, send the personJust leave it to me," Baochai said with a smile.
"Then I'll bother you, girl."
After saying the polite words, one of the female officers ordered, "Bring the person over and give it to him. "Miss Xue"
"Yes"
After a few breaths, a girl wearing a blue double-breasted jacket and a bun on her head came out. She was really dressed up.
"He looks upright and full of heroic spirit"
This is the evaluation given by Baochai. Although the other party's appearance is not very outstanding, the heroic spirit between his eyebrows is a real bonus. Quite a few, people can remember this face at a glance
"This is Miss Xue, please go with her"
"Where to go"
"Of course I'm going to see the princess"
"Oh"
Qiqige took two steps forward and said to Baochai generously, "Hello, my name is Qiqige"
This confused Baochai, so he could only say "Hello, let's go"
Baochai was not used to introducing himself like this, so he simply didn't After introducing her, she led Qiqige out.
“This girl is so stupid and cute.”
“It’s so cute when she kills cows and sheep with a knife. I don’t think it’s cute anymore.”
“Yes, these people are barbarians, and even women wield swords and guns. There is no etiquette in that.”
“Let her enter the palace like this. Waiting, I'm just afraid."
While the female officials of Shangyi Bureau were discussing, Qiqige had followed Baochai out of Shangyi Bureau.
"What's your name?"
Qiqige asked very directly. Baochai knew that she did not understand Ming Dynasty etiquette, so he replied, "My name is Baochai."
Who knew that Qiqige's next question was, "I am also from this palace." "Minions"
There is nothing wrong with this in essence. It is also true that those who work in the palace are servants, but after all, serving as a servant is different from a servant who serves others.
"Same as you , I’m the princess’s attendant.”
“Oh, then I’m not a slave.”
The two walked forward for a while, and then heard Qiqige ask, “How is the princess’s personality?” "Easy to get along with"
Baochai replied in a calm tone, "Whatever the princess's personality is, you and I need to adapt to it."
"But I also have a bad temper, and I often get beaten and scolded in the palace."
Before Qiqige could finish speaking, Baochai interrupted her and said, "That was in Junggar. Now you are in the Ming Dynasty, so you must abide by the rules of the Ming Dynasty."
A The servant dared to teach him a lesson. Qiqige was very unhappy.
After walking side by side with Baochai, Qiqige asked again, "Is it fun in this palace? When can I go out?"
Baochai calmly replied, "You should learn the rules in the palace clearly before talking about it."
She knew about the discord between Junggar and the Ming Dynasty, so she didn't think highly of Qi. Qige's future.
The two of them talked and quickly arrived at Kunning Palace.
At the same time, the emperor's edict also came to the East Palace.
Zhu Jingyuan was looking through past memorials. He didn't dare to neglect when he heard the edict was coming, so he dropped what he was doing and rushed out.
In the outer hall of the East Palace, with a group of East Palace eunuchs busy, the incense table futons needed to receive the order have been set up.
A group of bachelors from the East Palace gathered around Zhu Jingyuan and came outside the hall, lined up and stood ready to receive the order.
"My son Zhu Jingyuan, I would like to ask my father's holy greetings."
The eunuch who passed the order responded with "Holy greetings" and then read: "The Lord has spoken orally, on the ninth day of the 10th lunar month." In the Wuying Hall, I invited the chieftain envoys from various countries and tribes to a banquet, and ordered the prince to host the banquet for me."
"I admire this"
"My ministers accept the decree"
< p>After Zhu Jingyuan kowtowed, the eunuch who delivered the order quickly walked down the steps and helped the prince up on the ground.After hearing the eunuch's compliments, the officials of the prince's palace sent him out, and then entered the living room with the prince.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty has ordered you to host the state banquet. It shows that Your Highness's favor has not faded and his status is stable."
"That's it. This matter can be planned well. We will let Your Highness handle it." Good job"
Everyone talked to each other and began to discuss the yamen involved in the banquet, and divided the tasks that they had to do.
Everyone was talking about it. The preliminary plan for the state banquet had been discussed, and Zhu Jingyuan nodded in agreement.
After the group of bachelors left, Zhu Jingyuan's old habit of being nervous relapsed, so much so that he couldn't even read the memorial and turned around directly to enter the inner chamber.
Every time he encounters a big event, especially an errand assigned by the emperor's father, Zhu Jingyuan will unconsciously become nervous, to the point of deep thought and anxiety.
When he entered the study room of the inner house, Yuan Chun, who knew the situation, also rushed over and saw that Zhu Jingyuan looked pale as if he was seriously ill.
"What's going on, Your Highness?"
Zhu Jingyuan answered honestly, "My father gave me an errand, and I'm afraid I'll mess it up again, so at this moment, I'm feeling overwhelmed and uneasy."
Although he favored Wang Yi more, he also knew that Yuan Chun could find a way, so he confessed his thoughts at this moment.
"As long as the bachelors share your worries, Your Highness can take an overview, everything will be fine."
After hearing Yuanchun's words of comfort, Zhu Jingyuan couldn't help but said, "I just don't know what's going on. If only the thirteenth brother was here."
Recalling that Zhu Jinghong had helped make plans in Jinling before, and although things were "thrilling", the errands were completed, Zhu Jingyuan naturally felt at ease.
"Why don't we just let Mr. Thirteen follow us during this banquet?"
"I plan to invite him over and listen to his opinions, or I will send someone to invite him today. "
"Don't worry, let's go and invite them tomorrow. I'll invite Sheng'er along the way, just to invite them to come and enjoy the flowers. It just so happens that the begonia flowers are blooming in the garden."
"Why do you want to invite Sheng'er?" Zhu Jingyuan didn't answer.
"Isn't it too obvious to invite the Thirteenth Brother alone?"
Zhu Jingyuan nodded and said, "Please contact us about this matter.Let’s set the time for tomorrow afternoon.”
