Chapter 110: Princess, please feel at ease and pray for blessings
Ming-style construction is mostly similar.
Except for the differences in regulations and materials, the layout of ordinary homes is not much different from that of imperial palaces.
The princess's bedroom, facing south, is where the Lu family lives and lives, and is also the main hall.
The side rooms on the left and right sides of the palace are used for the palace ladies to rest, stack objects, etc.
Zhu Yunxi glanced around.
The door of Lu's main palace bedroom was opened, and wisps of black smoke came out from inside.
Many palace ladies carried blackened and burnt objects outside.
People who sweep are also busy.
Is the main palace of the Lu family in trouble?
Zhu Yunxi searched again and saw candles burning in the side hall, with several figures printed on the window paper.
If you listen carefully, you can still faintly hear the sound of chanting sutras.
And he even noticed that as he looked towards the side hall, Zhu Yunwen, who was stopped by Sun Cheng's people, could not help but tighten his expression and looked over nervously.
"Sun Cheng."
Zhu Yunxi called out and looked directly at the side hall.
Sun Cheng, who was well prepared, immediately rushed to the entrance of the side hall with his people.
"Princess, His Royal Highness the County Prince has come to say hello."
Sun Cheng stood at the door of the side hall and shouted loudly inside.
Zhu Yunxi also walked to the entrance of the side hall under the escort of Yu Lin's soldiers.
"Concubine, please come here to say hello."
Zhu Yunwen, who was lagging behind, rushed over in a panic, crossed in front of Zhu Yunxi, and growled angrily: "Zhu Yunxi, what on earth are you going to do!"
Zhu Yunxi raised his head and glanced at this good second brother: "Second brother, I have been ordered by my father to guard the East Palace. If something happened today, I came to say hello."
"My concubine was surprised tonight. She is chanting sutras carefully in front of the Buddha. Do you dare to be my concubine again?" Zhu Yunwen stood directly in front of Zhu Yunxi, staring at each other with wide eyes.
Zhu Yunxi was not panicked at all.
He took a step forward and seemed to be getting taller every day because of practicing martial arts every day.
At this moment, he has already surpassed Zhu Yunwen.
Zhu Yunxi almost looked down at Zhu Yunwen, his eyes were majestic and cold: "Did father change his mind and ask his second brother to take charge of the affairs of the East Palace?"
Now it is Zhu Yunxi who is in charge of the affairs of the East Palace.
When Zhu Yunwen saw what he said, he couldn't help but became speechless and opened his mouth silently. He didn't know how to speak for a while.
Zhu Yunxi snorted coldly: "Second brother, in other words, do you want to sever my family ties? Don't let me greet my mother and concubine?"
These words are already serious.
Zhu Yunwen's heart flashed, and he involuntarily got out of the way, standing aside and cursing: "You are so presumptuous! How dare you slander me!"
Zhu Yunxi smiled and took a step forward, stepped on the steps in front of the side hall, and looked sideways at Zhu Yunwen, who was already burning with anger.
He said calmly: "Second brother, if you are short of money outside, you can mention my name and go to Chang's shop to withdraw it."
At this time, Zhu Yunxi had already walked to the door of the palace and pressed his palm on the door.
Zhu Yunwen was panicked in his heart, shook his head randomly and said: "You are talking nonsense again, I don't understand!"
As he spoke, he was afraid that Zhu Yunxi would know what happened outside the palace, so he turned his head in a hurry and did not dare to look at him again.
Creak.
The palace door was pushed open by Zhu Yunxi.
And he also quietly left a sentence: "Second brother, as a man from the Tian family, you can't let yourself get hurt just because you don't have money."
Zhu Yunwen was completely panicked.
Did Lao San really know what he was doing?
Just when Zhu Yunwen turned back to look at the palace door, he saw Zhu Yunxi's figure had already walked into it, and Sun Cheng was following behind.
There was a clang.
The door of the side hall was closed.
Just when Zhu Yunwen wanted to follow him in, two more Yulin soldiers blocked his way.
"The Third Master wishes to express his condolences to the Crown Princess, please leave Your Highness alone!"
These two people were brought out by Sun Cheng from Yulinwei.
Now that Sun Cheng has become a member of the Yulin Guards, the minds of these people who were originally just big-headed soldiers have been aroused.
And considering the identity and status of the third master, he is not afraid of the Guangling County Prince in front of him.
Zhu Yunwen was so angry that he beat his chest and stamped his feet.
After glancing at the lancets in the hands of the two Habayashi guards for a few times, they could only snort several times and step aside, looking worriedly at the window paper on which the figures were projected.
And in the side hall.
Zhu Yunxi strolled among them and looked around.
Obviously, this is the place where Lu family usually worships Buddha statues.
Due to the wishes of the founding Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty took great care of Buddhism. Today, almost all adult princes and princes have appointed monks to accompany them.
It is normal for the Lu family to set up a Buddhist hall in the palace.
At this time, there was no one around the Buddhist hall, except for two personal maids of the Lu family, standing in the corner.
When he saw Zhu Yunxi coming in, he had to salute. However, he raised his hand to signal the ladies not to disturb him.
And Zhu Yunxi has also looked into the depths of the Buddhist hall.
I saw Mrs. Lu, with her round and jade-like body wrapped in a silk satin, kneeling in front of the Buddha statue.
The back is pretty and plump.
In front of Lu, there is an old monk, with his eyes closed, knocking on the wooden fish in front of him.
Mrs. Lu clasped her hands together, knelt in front of the Buddha statue, opened her lips lightly, and recited the blessing scripture in a low voice.
Hearing Zhu Yunxi's footsteps behind her, Lu's closed eyes moved slightly, her brows moved down, and the sound of scriptures in her mouth stopped.
Zhu Yunxi smiled silently and looked directly at the majestic Buddha statue.
After a while, he spoke softly: "Yunxi was ordered to take care of the East Palace. I heard that there were thieves infiltrating the East Palace tonight, so I came to the Crown Princess to express my condolences in order to avoid worrying about the Crown Princess."
As he spoke, Zhu Yunxi looked around in front of the Buddha statue.
After hearing what he said, the old monk stopped his wooden fish and opened his eyes slightly. After seeing that it was Zhu Yunxi, he closed his eyes again, lowered his head, and silently recited some sutra in his mouth.
Mrs. Lu lowered her head and turned sideways, then slowly raised her head under Zhu Yunxi's gaze.
Mrs. Lu looked at Zhu Yunxi and smiled slightly: "It's Yunxi."
Zhu Yunxi nodded and said: "Yunxi came to ask if the princess is okay now."
Lu's expression was normal and her pretty eyes were looking down: "I have nothing to do with you. Lei Yunxi is here."
Zhu Yunxi had a stern look on his face and said in a deep voice: "The princess will be fine if nothing happens. There are... thieves in the East Palace today. It's Yunxi's fault for not protecting her properly. I will go to the Holy See tomorrow to apologize."
Mrs. Lu opened her mouth and was about to speak.
A harsh cat meow came from outside the Buddhist hall.
A scream and cry like that of a baby.
Afterwards, the palace maid who had the crown prince's bedroom walked outside the side hall.
Her voice was filled with relief and she said happily: "Your Majesty, I've found it! It's not that a thief entered the East Palace, but a wild cat that came out of nowhere and got into the palace while the slaves were not paying attention."
Mrs. Lu looked at Zhu Yunxi, smiled and said: "Since it was just a wild cat intrusion, Yunxi does not need to blame himself. It is late at night, but I can't sleep, so I will do it for your father in front of this Buddha a few more times."
Pray for blessings."
Zhu Yunxi is also smiling.
Quietly watching Lu, who still wanted to continue praying.
His eyes lingered on Lu's face for a moment, and then he said calmly: "In that case, Yunxi will not disturb you anymore. The Crown Princess can rest assured and pray for blessings."
As he spoke, he didn't want to stay any longer and turned around to leave.
Mrs. Lu looked at the empty palace door with a cold light in her eyes.
What is the purpose of asking him to pray for peace of mind!
Do you want me to stop caring about things outside the Buddhist hall from now on?
