Chapter 219: The End of the Year (1)

"Although the Crown Prince is young, he is also the Crown Prince of the East Palace of my Ming Dynasty!"

Li Jinglong observed Zhu Yunxi's expression as he spoke, and said with a smile, "To put it bluntly, for those vassal states, the prince is their little master, and the prince's appearance has given the Burmese vassal king enough face!

"

Zhu Yunxi was a little hesitant, "Liu Jin is still small after all. What's such a big deal? What if something goes wrong...?"

He himself knows the virtues of his own son, but the bad temper of that boy Liu Jin is not reassuring.

"The prince has a dignified character and is absolutely flawless. I can say this from the bottom of my heart. It is precisely because he is young that he needs to know more!" Li Jinglong said with a smile, "The prince is the prince. The sooner he sees some things, the better. Let him know something from an early age.

This is the style of a great country. In the future, when other vassal states come to pay tribute, the prince will be the one to do so. This not only gives the vassal state the face and courtesy, but also demonstrates the power of the Ming Dynasty!"

"The style of a great country?" Zhu Yunxi snorted, "Can you make a living?"

In fact, what he hates the most is the words "big country style", because behind these words is Chi Guoguo's scapegoat. You let others do everything and don't care about them. In the end, they think you are stupid and have too much money.

.

However, it is not impossible for Liu Jin to come forward...

For the prince to come forward to receive the vassal king, those civil servants must be as happy as honey, and their hearts must be full of it...

Seeing that Zhu Yunxi looked a little relaxed, Li Jinglong smiled and said, "In fact, as early as nearly thirty years ago, Emperor Xiaokang personally received the envoys from Goryeo, Annan, and even Ryukyu!" He said, and smiled, "This is also true.

It is a rule of our Ming Dynasty that I was lucky enough to serve Emperor Xiaokang and receive the Ryukyu envoys."

Zhu Yunxi blinked, waiting for Li Jinglong's next words.

"I am in charge of the vassal administration, and I have experience in receiving vassal countries! If the emperor does not give up, I am willing to assist the prince and undertake the ceremony of meeting the king of Burma!" Li Jinglong said carefully, "There is a first time for everything.

Even if the prince is still young, he will definitely be perfect if he has ministers to check for his shortcomings and make up for them!"

"I knew you had this evil intention in mind!" Zhu Yunxi laughed secretly in his heart.

As he thought in his heart, he had a cold look on his face, "Well, since you said that, it will hurt your heart if I don't use you!" As he said, he changed the subject, "But remember, if it hurts you

Great Mingwei, I am asking you!"

"My lord, I will do my best!" Li Jinglong immediately said loudly.

Spring Harmony Palace, along the southwest road.

When it comes to the most magnificent place in the Forbidden City, it must be Chunhe Palace.

As far as the eye can see, it is full of carved beams and painted buildings, and there are many plum trees planted around the palace. It is winter now, and the plum blossoms are in full bloom, which is so beautiful that it looks like a fairyland on earth.

The reason why this palace is extraordinarily beautiful and majestic is that since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, this palace has been the residence of the crown prince and grandson.

Lord Hongwu himself was frugal, but he could not see his children and grandchildren being frugal, especially his direct descendants who were as simple as him.

"Mr. Chen, your side!"

The chief eunuch of the Internal Affairs Bureau, who had just taken office a few months ago, had little money. He nodded and bowed and cautiously walked towards Chen Bubu, the chief eunuch of the Qianqing Palace and the Spring Harmony Palace, towards the corridor.

Chen Bubu always has a dead face, as if everyone owes him money.

He walked a few steps, looked over at the study room as if he was a little worried, and stopped.

"Come here!" he called softly.

A young eunuch with delicate features appeared silently behind him.

"The Crown Prince has half an hour to finish reading!" Chen Bu said seriously, "Prepare hot milk and fried red fruits for His Highness. Prepare hot tea and snacks for the bachelors!"

"Yes!" The little eunuch bowed his head in response and turned around to prepare.

"Come back!" Chen Bu snorted again.

The little eunuch stopped in fear and was at a loss.

"Hand out your hand!" Chen Bu said with a cold face.

"Yes!" The little eunuch stretched out his hand tremblingly.

Chen Bu glanced at his fingertips, and his face suddenly became darker and a little ferocious.

Because there was a bit of dirt in the gaps between the little eunuch's nails.

"Wash it clean! Cut it neatly!" Chen Bui snorted coldly, "Next time, don't ask for these hands!"

"Yes!" The little eunuch's calves were trembling and he could hardly stand still.

Then, Chen Bui turned around to see that there was not much money. In the latter's flattering smile, he muttered, "Let's go!"

"This way!" Qian Buduo hurriedly bowed and led the way.

This newly promoted eunuch in the palace is much more frightening than the others. No matter who he encounters, he must be cautious, for fear of getting into trouble and getting angry.

~~

It had just snowed and the sky was exceptionally clear.

Under the clear sky, the red walls and golden tiles of the Forbidden City are particularly beautiful.

In the lee of the southwest road, there was a row of more than thirty teenagers in cotton robes, standing in fear and helplessness with their heads lowered. Their faces were pale, and their fingertips were trembling slightly.

Qian Buduo pointed at these young men and said with a smile, "Your last order was that the prince should be surrounded by more manpower..."

Hearing this, Chen Bui gave him a cold look and said with an unkind expression, "Did you buy this, the eunuch in charge?"

"Young man...?" Qian Buduo was stunned for a moment, and his heart skipped a beat.

"What qualifications does the Zajia have to give you orders?" Chen Bu stared at him, "It was the Queen who gave the orders..."

"Yes, yes!" Qian Buduo nodded quickly and slapped himself, "You said the wrong thing, slap me!"

"It's best not to see the Za family next time!" Chen Bubu glanced at him again, and then looked at the young people who had just entered the palace.

Qian Buduo wiped his cold sweat and said, "Last time the Empress ordered to send more people to the Crown Prince's side, the villain took it seriously. The thirty boys in front of me have all just entered the palace, and they are innocent. Looking at

They are quite pleasing to the eye. So I brought them all here, and you can watch them!"

Chen Bui's eyes were like daggers, he looked at them one by one, looking at them from head to toe.

"Don't worry, firstly, the body is not disabled, secondly, the teeth are not yellow and slovenly, and thirdly, there is no cunning and cunning..."

"Can you tell that they are sneaky?" Chen Bu snorted and suddenly pointed at the four or five young men in the front row, "Are these single-eyed men Han Chinese?"

"Goryeo!" Qian Buduo said immediately, "He was sent here from the Koryo camp. It is said that they are all descendants of officials in Goryeo, and they all learned Chinese for a year before being sent to the capital!"

"No!" Chen Bui frowned, "You are deceived by lard! You are not from my race, don't you understand? These sons of Goryeo officials are the ones who committed crimes in their families. If you keep these people around the prince, if something happens to you,

Can you afford it?”

"The villain deserves to die!" Qian Buduo slapped himself again, "The villain has a stupid brain. If the manager hadn't warned you, the villain would have almost made a big mistake!"

Chen Bubu glanced at him again, then looked at those pitiful teenagers, and pointed at the little ones behind him with dark skin, "Where did they come from?"

Qian Buduo looked at it and said in a low voice, "The tribute from Annan during the August Festival! It was already purified when it was delivered!"

"No!" Chen Bui shook his head and sighed, "What kind of status is the Crown Prince? These barbarians are not very reassuring!" As he said that, he frowned and looked, "Aren't there any Han family members who are innocent?"

"Which child from an innocent family is willing to be a eunuch?" Qian Buduo thought to himself, "If you have an innocent family, you have to take the exam for fame!"

But he did not dare to show it on his face, and said with a wry smile, "General Manager! Long live the Lord has already issued an order that no young Han eunuchs are allowed in the palace. The Hu Ma in Guanglu Temple is watching closely. The month before last, the Shenxing Department accepted a self-castrated eunuch.

When people come in, the head of the Shenxing Department directly orders Hu Huma to be sent to Qiongzhou!"

"Self-castration?" Chen Bui frowned slightly, "What's the reason?"

"Hebei people!" Qian Buduo said hurriedly, "Speaking of this person, he looks a bit..."

"Something?"

Qian Buduo smiled and said, "This little guy is a little confused! He can't figure out the way! This guy is still a scholar!"
