A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City - Chapter 83
The troubled boy in brown brocade clothes was taken away by the dragon guard, and the royal dandies stepped forward to salute Jiuzhu.
“I have seen the princess, the princess and the prince are really a natural match, a perfect match.”
“No, we grew up with the prince, and it was the first time we saw the prince help a woman get off the carriage.”
Jiuzhu felt that these words were familiar. In the series of stories about the overbearing prince, the steward next to the overbearing prince seemed to have said, “The prince brought a woman back to the palace for the first time.”
She asked Wang Chen in a low voice: “His Royal Highness, these friends of yours also like to hear stories about the overbearing lord?”
Chen Wang: “…”
“You did a good job in this matter.” Wang Chen patted Yun Qirong on the shoulder: “When I see my father in the future, I will find the opportunity to ask for your credit.”
“Thank you, Your Majesty.” Yun Qirong and the other royal dude hurriedly thanked: “These are things we did only after listening to the prince’s teachings. It’s not worth mentioning.”
On weekdays, they hire cats and dogs, stroll on the street, and do nothing serious. Suddenly there was a group of scholars, thanking them sincerely, and being looked at with admiring eyes, this feeling was not bad.
“The princes are really amazing.” Jiuzhu looked at these people in admiration, and he was indeed a friend of His Royal Highness who did so many good deeds.
“There is no such thing, we all follow His Highness’s feet.” Yun Qirong knows how to say good things about the prince in front of the princess: “We used to act very absurdly, but after the enlightenment and persuasion of His Highness, we went back It’s the right way.”
Your Highness, if the princess finds out in the future, you have an excuse for fighting with crickets before.
The other royal dudes did not understand why Yun Qirong said that, but seeing the satisfied smile on His Royal Highness’s face, they immediately understood, and they all said that Yun Qirong was right. They can have the integrity and kindness of today. It depends on His Highness. Patience to persuade.
A qualified royal dude must know how to raise the backer and accomplish the common goal of hello, me, everyone.
“Since you have done a good thing, you must do it to the end.” Wang Chen put his hand behind him, “It is a good thing to go to the Yuyingtang and walk around the rescue center on weekdays.”
If you don’t want to study, just do some charity. Even if you don’t have much ability in the future, you can still get a good name.
Turning his head to see Jiuzhu looking at him appreciatively, he coughed dryly: “These are things I have been used to when I was young, and what they say should not be taken seriously.”
“His Royal Highness does not need to explain, I understand.” Jiu Zhu nodded slightly: “Although you are such a kind person, you like to keep a low profile.”
“I don’t like low-key.” Chen Wang bent over and whispered in her ear: “I like you.”
“His Royal Highness.” Jiuzhu touched his red ears and gave him an embarrassed look.
“Master, we should also go back.” Yun Qirong saw the prince and the princess lower their heads and bit their ears and whispered, and wittily took the other buddies to say goodbye.
When the royal dudes hurriedly left, Jiuzhu suddenly remembered something: “Didn’t you say that your guard companions all put the money in the lady’s custody after they read home. Why does Yun Qirong have so much money in his body?”
“This question is a good question.” Wang Chen took her hand: “Of course it’s because he doesn’t have a lady yet.”
“Oh…” Jiuzhu suddenly realized: “No wonder he didn’t blink his eyes when he gave money.” She felt distressed even when she saw it.
Wang Chen’s expression was complicated. Back then, Hua Yinzi was so chic, until he was imprisoned by his father in the palace…
He turned his head and saw a familiar person standing a few steps away: “Yu Jian, General Yu?”
Yu Jian knows what Wang Chen wants to say is you again.
“His Royal Highness Wang Chen.” He stepped forward and saluted.
Wang Chen wore a regular uniform: “Are you not working at King Wuwei?”
“Go back to your Highness, I will rest at the end of today.” Yu Jian was excited, and his Highness cares so much whether he is working in Jinwuwei, is it because he intends to let him go to Chen Wangfu as an errand?
“Oh.” Wang Chen replied, leading Jiuzhu and turned and left.
Looking at the backs of the two of them, Yu Jian was puzzled. What does his Highness “Oh” mean?
Wang Chen will let people go back barefoot and will never give people the opportunity to wear shoes and socks.
A young man in Jinyi walked barefoot on the street in the early spring, without riding horses or carriages, attracting hundreds of people to watch. It seems that it is not enough to disrespect him. As long as someone asks the reason, the person in charge of supervising him will tell the story again.
The bully dude bullied the poor scholar. At the last moment, the justice prince descended from the sky to save the poor scholar and punish the bully dude. Isn’t this the way countless people like to punish evil and promote good?
In less than two hours, this matter spread throughout the capital.
At the talk banquet held by some people, the atmosphere was particularly solemn.
During this period of time, they tried their best to lead some royal dandies to the entrance of Hongwen Academy, and finally waited until they had a conflict, but the result was like this?
They wanted to provoke the contradiction between the poor students and the royal clan, not to help the king and the royal dudes and raise their image in the eyes of scholars.
“I can’t figure it out, why would those dudes suddenly buy pens, inks, papers and inkstones and send them to Hongwen Academy?” A certain Patriarch suddenly looked up at the crowd: “Could it be that all of this is a joint performance of the king and the dudes? “
“You mean, there is a traitor among us…?” Another Patriarch frowned: “We are all close friends who have known each other for many years. Who can do this?”
He still trusts the people here, and blames these facts for being too coincidental. The coincidence makes him suspect that Wang Chen seems to have the help of gods.
“Brother Du, look at this…” He turned his head to look at Du Qingke who was sitting in the corner without saying a word: “Does he really have gods help?”
“You arranged things, you ask me, who shall I ask?” Du Qingke’s long hair was untied, his broad robe was loosely tied, and he snorted with a smile, “Perhaps he is really helpful.”
“Brother Du joked. If he really had the help of the gods, he wouldn’t be a prince until now.” The Patriarch said: “Your Majesty established the Su clan as the queen, but did not make him the crown prince, indicating that he is still dissatisfied with him.”
Before the Fourth Prince fell from power, many officials supported him. As a result, countless memorials sank into the ocean without any ripples.
After Su’s canonization, some officials couldn’t wait to flatter Su Hou and asked your Majesty to canonize Chen Wang as a prince. In the end, these memorials fell to nothing.
Du Qingke smiled unclearly. Emperor Longfeng was not dissatisfied with King Chen, but a normal emperor’s nostalgia for the throne, and the envy and jealousy of his young and strong son.
The more powerful people are, the more they are afraid of getting old.
This is human nature.
“Brother Du, as soon as this incident occurs, I am afraid that no one dare to go to Hongwen College to make trouble, so what else can we do?”
“What can I do?” Du Qingke sighed: “Du Mou is just a useless person who is greedy for wine, you should think of a solution by yourself.”
“Brother Du, Brother Du.” When everyone saw him about to leave, they quickly persuaded him: “After you have said something, think about it together, how can you leave?”
“It’s not that you said that King Chen is like a divine help. If that’s the case, what can we do to deal with him?” Du Qingke threw off his sleeves: “Why don’t you accept reality earlier and give up your family dreams?”
“Everyone was just joking, Brother Du must not take it seriously.” These declining families, except for the Du family’s status in the capital, the others just maintain the superficial glory and don’t have much right to speak in the court.
“Li En, the Ming family three brothers, and more than half of the officials in the six departments are not from a family. Especially the Ming family, relying on the name of the first three class, how much limelight has it taken away from the Sun family?”
Du Qingke laughed: “The Sun family is also a big family, why don’t you want to win over the Sun family?”
“This…” Several Patriarchs looked at each other, and had no confidence in winning over the Sun Family.
The Sun family was always able to speak up in the court, and even married a daughter to the royal family, for fear that they were not willing to join them.
“Even the Sun family can’t win, do you still want to restore the family?” Du Qingke seemed to look at a group of jokes: “Everyone, go back and think about it slowly, Du Mou takes one step first.”
“Du Qingke is too arrogant!”
“Let’s bear it, without him, our family will be even more difficult.”
Everyone is silent, do they have a better life with him?
“I have another idea.” The Patriarch, who suspects that there is a traitor among them, suddenly brightened his eyes: “We can’t do anything at Hongwen College. There are two other places that no one cares about on weekdays.”
“where?”
“Nursing hall and rescue center.” Patriarch said: “The nursery is full of children who are abandoned by their parents and are not healthy. If someone finds out, the officials inside treat the children harshly, will it arouse the people’s anger?”
“That can’t.” Another Patriarch shook his head: “After your majesty became the throne, he would call back a lot of money to nurseries in various states and counties every year. The person in charge inside is also changed every two or three years. It is possible for officials to patrol at any time. There is something harsh on children.”
“Even if it doesn’t, we can think of a way to let him have it.” He rubbed his fingers: “If you have money, you can make the ghosts go.”
In the afternoon, when she was sleepy, Jiuzhu took some gadgets she bought outside the palace and walked to Mingyue Palace.
The palace was deep, countless court ladies and eunuchs watched her step back and give way to salute, Jiuzhu saw respect and… fear in their eyes.
This reminded her of the palace lady who fainted under the tree in pain because of the master’s beating. She saw her next to Sun Caiyao a few days ago, and her life should be much better than before.
“Princess Chen.” A group of people came from the side and saluted her.
“Lu Zhaoyi, Wei Zhaoyi.” Jiuzhu recognized the two and returned a gift from the younger generation. They are the biological mothers of King An and King Jing. Wei Zhaoyi’s appearance can barely be regarded as pretty, and walking with Lu Zhaoyi is gloomy.
“The princess also went to the Mingyue Palace to please the empress?” Lu Zhaoyi smiled somewhat similar to Wang An: “If the princess doesn’t dislike it, we can go all the way.”
“Two empresses, please.”
“Don’t dare.” Wei Zhaoyi took a step back: “Wang Hao, please.”
Chen Wang is the queen’s concubine. Although he has not been crowned prince, his status is higher than their concubines.
The princesses are like the princes. If they dare to walk in front of Mingjiuzhu, Mingyue Palace will definitely be unhappy.
“Let’s not push around, just walk together.” Lu Zhaoyi and Jiu Zhu walked side by side: “Wei Zhaoyi has always been such a staid temperament, the princess does not need to care.”
Jiu Zhu looked at Wei Zhaoyi, who was hanging her head and shoulders, and insisting on being half a step behind her. It is no wonder that Jing Wang and Concubine Jing are not talkative, but they have followed her.
This is why his Majesty gave the title of Jing to the Three Princes?
