Chapter 7 The Greatest Secret in the Palace
Three oil-paper umbrellas were blown away by the wind on the ground.
Under the tile eaves of the Ningxiang Palace wall, Xu Bao put the long-haired child in his arms and carefully protected him. Of course, in the eyes of others, it was protection, but his real purpose... The only one present was
He knew it himself.
In the rain, the two old men were punching and palming each other, and their moves were causing strong winds and thunder. The only words in their conversation were "I dare you" and "Zhang Min, you are getting more and more courageous."
"Other than that, there is nothing else.
It seems that Zhang Min, who wanted to kill him earlier, is determined. Otherwise, since the two of them are acquaintances, they would have to say hello, right?
The person who came was called Zhang Min, so who was this person who suddenly came out to protect him?
Why did Zhang Min want to kill himself again?
"How dare you? I didn't do anything?" Xu Bao squinted his eyes and thought carefully, suddenly his eyes lit up, and then he was stunned: "Could it be that..."
Xu Bao's eyes gradually fell on the long-haired child in his arms.
Before these two old men came out, I only had this poor little one next to me. This old eunuch named Zhang Min wanted to kill me, and the reason would naturally fall on this poor little one. Regarding this weird-looking little poor one, Xu Bao
But suddenly I thought of a record I saw in a book in my previous life.
After Emperor Chenghua of the Ming Dynasty succeeded to the throne, he doted on his former maid Wan Zhen'er. He gave birth to a son with Wan Zhen'er first, and named this son the emperor's eldest son, and also named Wan Zhen'er as the emperor's noble concubine. Unfortunately, it was only eleven months.
The eldest son of the empress died in infancy, and this was also Wan Zhen'er's only son. Although the death of the eldest son of the empress made them sad, the strange thing was that all the concubines in the harem had no children since then.
In the emperor's eyes, this may be the number of days he is destined to be childless, but in fact everyone in the palace knows that it is not because he is incompetent or the concubines in the harem are incompetent, but because every pregnant concubine will be forcibly aborted by Wan Zhen'er in private.
.
If the story continues like this, in the end Emperor Chenghua may have to pass the throne to his nephews and nephews from the royal family. But there are three people in the middle: Ji, Zhang Min, and Zhu Youtang (g).
This daughter of the Ji family was a female chieftain prisoner brought back by Han Yong, the general of the DPRK, after he put down the rebellion in Guangxi. She was sent to the palace to serve as the caretaker of the imperial treasury. In terms of status, there is really no need to write a big book about it, palace maid.
That's it, there are too many, but this Ji family is different from them because she once had a relationship with Emperor Chenghua and gave birth to a son.
Let’s talk about Zhang Min, he is the eunuch who serves Wan Zhen’er, and his identity is not special. After all, with Wan Zhen’er’s status, the eunuchs and palace maids around him are at least thirty or fifty. But there is only this Zhang Min in the history books.
The name was left behind because he once came to drown Ji's son on Wan Zhen'er's order, but for some unknown reason, he just took the child away and raised him secretly.
Finally, there is Zhu Youtang, the successor after Emperor Chenghua, Ming Xiaozong Zhu Youtang. He is the son of Emperor Chenghua and Ji, and the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
Could it be that this little furry kid in front of me...
Xu Bao narrowed his eyes...
The two old men in front of me were fighting fiercely in the rain. There were no shouts like "Hey", "Ha" or "Look at the moves". They were both practical combatants. However, the sounds of dragons and tigers roaring from the palms, wind and fists were heard.
It's really scary. Their Kung Fu skills, Xu Bao's, seem to be about the same. They both follow a fierce path of opening and closing. If they fight for hundreds of rounds, whoever doesn't have enough to eat will lose. But it's difficult in a short time.
Score high and low.
This is not possible. If Zhang Min wins, his life will be over!
Thinking of this, Xu Bao rolled his eyes, his face expressionless, but he gently grabbed a few hairs of the child with his left hand and pulled hard.
"Ouch." The little furry child cried out in pain.
I heard Zhang Min yell again: "How dare you!" He ignored the punches and kicks from the opponent in front of him and pounced on him.
Xu Bao was well prepared. He let go of the little furry child in his arms, grabbed the food box on the ground and threw it towards Zhang Min.
"Click!"
The food box was completely broken.
"Bang!"
A heavy palm fell on Zhang Min's back and shoulder.
"puff!"
Zhang Min spat out a mouthful of blood, fell to the ground, struggled for a while, and then became silent.
The little kid rolled his eyes and fainted from fright.
A few breaths later, the old eunuch who had just confronted Zhang Min came to Zhang Min and carried him on his shoulders. He came to Xu Bao, looked at him condescendingly, and nodded: "Yes, he is very thoughtful."
, he is better at picking people than our family." After another pause, the old eunuch continued: "Pick him up and come in with our family."
"Yes." Xu Bao carefully picked up the little furry child and followed the old eunuch closely.
This child is really too thin, with not much flesh on his body, and it feels a little awkward to hold. I don't mean to be sarcastic, I just feel pitiful. You know, if your guess is correct, this is the real prince, who will be the future prince.
The great emperor of tomorrow!
After walking through the stone road and arriving at the palace gate, the old eunuch first gently knocked on the door and shouted: "I have tasted the medicine and asked to see my queen live a thousand years!"
Chu tastes the medicine!
Little Orange’s godfather? The eunuch with the palm print of Shang Yi Jian!
He has a tall figure and an aquiline nose, and his appearance is just right. Looking at his clothes, the old eunuch in front of him is wearing a true green scarlet robe, embroidered with gold tiger patches, lined with plain silk clothes, and wearing a black hat.
Crown, isn't this what the eunuch wearing the palm print in the palace wears?
By the way, the civil and military officials of foreign dynasties have custom-made uniforms with cranes and unicorns embroidered on their court uniforms. They must not overstep the rules of what kind of birds and animals they wear. But the eunuchs in the palace do not have rules for embroidering patches on their clothes.
But as their status and authority grew, they slowly and naturally began to design their own clothes.
It sounds unbelievable, but the first person to dress like this was Wang Zhen. Considering his ability as an old man, it seems not surprising. Now the customization of eunuch clothing patchwork has not been finalized, but the eunuch with paw prints is embroidered with gold tiger, holding pen
It is well established that eunuchs embroidered lanterns.
Why should he follow me?
What does "you didn't pick the wrong person?"
No one in the hall answered, Chu Changyao was not polite, pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing Xu Bao behind him in a daze, Chu Changyao frowned: "Come in."
"Yes." Xu Bao came to his senses and quickly followed.
The hall was empty, except for a few large pillars supporting the beams, and there were only some tables and chairs placed haphazardly.
In fact, the "palace" is just a two-story pavilion, but the layout is larger.
Chu Changyao swayed and threw Zhang Min on his shoulder to the ground. He then took the little boy from Xu Bao's arms, saying "Stand still." and walked upstairs.
"Don't wake up, don't wake up, don't wake up, don't wake up..." Xu Bao prayed secretly, Chu Changyao was not here, and if Zhang Min on the ground woke up at this time, he might be finished.
About two-quarters of an hour passed, Zhang Min woke up, and by coincidence, Chu Chang's medicine came down just in time.
The two old eunuchs looked at each other in silence. Xu Bao very discerningly lifted two chairs from the ground and placed them behind them. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed before getting up and going out.
pity...
"Stop, since we have met, you should stay and listen. Anyway, it will be almost the same in another year, and you children should know something." Chu Changyao captured Sun Houhou back to Wuzhishan.
.
"Yes..." Xu Bao turned around with a frown and walked up to Chu Changyao in small steps. He lowered his head and lowered his hands and silently recited the invisibility spell he had just created: "I am a wooden man, you can't see me, you can't see me,
Can’t see me~~~”.
Chu Changyao took the seat first and said to Zhang Min: "Sit down, we men can't stand and talk, right?"
"Humph!" Zhang Min snorted coldly and sat down.
Chapter completed!
