Chapter 33 Daming's Afternoon

"Your Majesty, your majesty said, he is not free!"

After Huang Gou'er finished speaking, some didn't dare to look at Lu's face.

This daughter-in-law, who was once praised by the emperor himself for being virtuous and like the late empress, somehow annoyed His Majesty, and now she can't even see him in person.

And Mrs. Lu knew what the three words "he was not free" meant, which meant that the emperor did not want to see him, did not want to see him, and was not rare. These three words came from the emperor's mouth, and they meant many things.

There are no secrets in the world. Within an hour, word will spread throughout the palace and outside the palace that the emperor has some opinions about her as his daughter-in-law.

If the emperor does not want to see a person, it often represents danger.

On the way back, Mrs. Lu felt a little absent-minded and lost her mind.

The palace is a city, and the people in the city are the smartest and most perceptive people in the world. At the same time, they are also the most vicious people in the world.

Lu thought as she walked, wondering what she had done wrong, which made the emperor dislike her, made the emperor dislike her, and made the emperor have opinions about her.

After thinking about it, there is only one possibility.

Because of one person.

Remember https://m in one second.

Zhu Yunxi.

Thinking of this name, Lu's eyes became sharp.

Ever since the day of the prince's funeral, why did the third child, whom she had always deliberately suppressed and despised, suddenly caught the emperor's eye? Suddenly turned into the emperor's favorite grandson?

Why did Zhu Yunxi suddenly become the emperor's heart, replacing Lu and Zhu Yunzhen's mother and son?

"What did he say in front of the emperor at that time?"

"The emperor must think that I am a mean woman in private!"

"The emperor must have thought that Zhu Yunxi's behavior before was because he was afraid of me?"

In an instant, Lu thought of many answers.

Instantly, her heart became cold.

If this is the case, the emperor will not only resent her. I am afraid that this resentment will also be grafted onto his own son, Zhu Yunwen.

If you die, you will die, but your son?

What he has done over the years is all for his son?

Thinking about it, Mrs. Lu gradually went to the palace and took the wrong direction.

"Your Majesty, this is not a return trip to the palace, but a trip to the university hall!"

A palace maid reminded Lu quietly behind her.

Lu stopped and turned around.

His gentle and dignified face seemed to glow with a soft light in the early summer sunshine.

She smiled and moved the corners of her mouth slightly.

But what he said was chilling and frightening.

"Where am I going? Do I need a cheap servant like you to take care of me?"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for talking too much!" The palace maid immediately knelt down, her face pale.

"Ha!" Lu smiled gently again, then turned her head, her eyes became extremely cold, "Wu Gui'er, open your mouth!"

Snap, snap, snap, snap!

The red Forbidden City is lined with streets, under the crisp green shade.

Lu continued to walk forward for a long time, the soft soles of her feet stepping on the stone slabs without making any sound.

Behind her, under the weeping willows, her eunuch was shooting a palace maid in the mouth with her bow.

~~~~~

"See the empress..."

At the entrance of the university hall, the saluting guards and palace attendants did not bow loudly under Lu's gesture.

"I want to see King Huai reading!"

With a simple word, Lu left the palace attendants around her and walked towards the school alone.

The wind in the afternoon was a bit soft, and there were shadows of green trees in the sunshine, as well as fallen leaves that occasionally swayed in the wind.

The windows of the school are open, and the situation inside can be seen from the outside.

The young princes of the Huangming vassal were not interested in listening to the lecture, they all looked up at the roof in trance.

They may be thinking that they should finish class early and go back to eat something good and play something nice.

"A bunch of trash!"

Lu's eyes swept over Zhu Yuanzhang's youngest sons with disdain.

Then her eyes fell on the thin boy at the front of the school who was concentrating on consulting the teacher.

Suddenly, her eyes softened and were filled with pride.

That was her son, her support, her future, her heart treasure, Zhu Yunwen.

Zhu Yunwen held a book and pointed it to Qi Tai, a Hanlin scholar, who was reading it.

The latter showed a teachable smile, and then took the trouble to explain.

"Your Highness, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was tired of government in his later years and lived a luxurious life. At the same time, he believed in rumors and the father and son were at odds, forcing the prince to commit suicide."

"The cause of the matter is witchcraft..."

Mr. Lu stood outside the window and listened silently, listening to the Hanlin bachelor explaining the gains and losses in history to his son, and listening to the distant stories about conspiracy and bloodshed.

Then, Ms. Lu slowly turned around and looked at the office of the Hanlin students. She found several of her Hanlin students leaving silently with dignified jaws.

When she left, she was still smiling.

~~~~~~~~

This is Zhu Yunxi's first time out of the palace. For him, everything in this era is curious.

As the capital of the Ming Dynasty, Yingtian is the most prosperous place in the world.

The street is wide and straight. Although it is not entirely a stone road, the dirt floor is compacted and smooth. There are thick weeping willows on both sides of the road. There are traders and servants sitting under the green grass to rest, and there are salesmen and hawkers shouting with their strength.

On the roadside, there are also three-story trading houses with signboards and pretense. They sell cloth, grain, wine and sugar.

There was an endless stream of pedestrians, wearing all kinds of clothes, strolling leisurely on the road. There were ordinary people, scholars with their servants, old men with their grandchildren, soft sedans, horse-drawn carriages, etc.

Everything here looks so lively, the people here look so peaceful, everything here is full of hope, and the people here all have such energetic faces.

Zhu Yunxi was wandering on the street in plain clothes, and his eyes were simply not enough to see. In the prosperous Ming Dynasty, any ordinary scene was the most beautiful scenery in the world to him.

The guards in uniforms and palace guards beside him, who were also dressed in casual clothes, looked at the crowd around him with eager eyes, like leopards that were gathering strength and ready to attack at any time.

After reviewing the elite troops of the Ming Dynasty who were about to go on an expedition, Zhu Yunxi disguised himself with his bodyguards and wandered around the capital. Anyway, Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a day, and he just wanted to see the true face of this era.

"Third Master!" Liao Yong behind Zhu Yunxi whispered, "Come back?"

"Why are you so anxious!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile, "It's hard to come out for a while, but I have to walk around the capital anyway!" As he said that, he patted the other party's broad shoulder with the folding fan in his hand, and said with a smile, "You don't understand.

, this is called immersive!”

Liao Yong didn't understand, so he could only bend down slightly so that King Wu could pat him, and at the same time looked around warily.

He didn't understand what it meant to be on the scene, but he knew that if King Wu made any mistakes, all of them would lose their heads.

Everything is fresh in Zhu Yunxi's eyes. He is used to seeing high-rise buildings carved out of the same mold in later generations. The streets and alleys of this era are so humane.

There are no roaring cars on the street, no irritable drivers, and no migrant workers whose faces say they are living a difficult life.

Some of them are the unique peace and nourishment of this era.

This place should be the paradise of this era.

"Third Master, are you going back?" Liao Yong continued in a somewhat embarrassing tone.

Zhu Yunxi shook his head helplessly, these guards were afraid that someone would suddenly come out and harm him.

But thinking about it, they are also responsible. If I continue to do this, I am afraid they will be punished when they go back.

Just as he was about to speak, his eyes fell on a shop selling candy on the roadside.

"I have to buy something when I go out. There are two girls at home, buy them something!" Zhu Yunxi smiled and strode in.

The clerk at the candy shop saw a young master coming with a group of senior entourage, and greeted him warmly.

"Young Master, please come in! The shop has sesame candies from Shandong, plum candies from Yangzhou, chestnut candies from Suzhou, and osmanthus candies from Hangzhou."

"There are dragon beard sugar from Fujian, coconut sugar from Guangzhou, sugar cane sugar from Guangxi, maltose from Fanbang, and cheese restaurants from outside the country!"

A series of words came out of the little boy's mouth, which were both playful and pleasant. He said many words without panting or stammering.

Zhu Yunxi's eyes wandered around the store, and he asked with a smile, "Little girl, what kind of candy does the grandfather eat? Two pounds of it!"

~~~

Carrying a few bags of candies in his hand, Zhu Yunxi walked out, looked at the bustling street scene, and walked toward the Forbidden City surrounded by guards.

He was particularly happy today, seeing the Ming Dynasty's Huben and this era of prosperity and leisure. He always had a smile on his face, not a fake one, but a smile from the bottom of his heart.

But his smile quickly solidified.

His eyes changed.
