Chapter 41 Not a fuel-efficient lamp
Wang Xiao took Sun Ruowei's hand and jumped directly from the guardrail on the third floor and landed on a pleasure boat.
He had never learned light skills and almost fell down. Fortunately, his physical fitness was good enough, so he stood firm after swaying for a few times.
Sun Ruowei, who was standing beside him, covered her mouth and laughed constantly. From the first meeting to the present, she was suppressed by Wang Xiao so much that she couldn't breathe. Now seeing him making a fool of himself, somehow, the previously suppressed mood suddenly improved.
"This is a mistake, I'm actually very good."
Wang Xiao was also a little embarrassed and had to explain a few words for the sake of face.
When he explained, Sun Ruowei laughed louder.
A group of people rushed out of Tingyuxuan, including Jinyiwei and people in different dresses.
Wang Xiao waved to them, sat down on the bow of the boat and greeted Sun Ruowei, "Accompany me to travel the Qinhuai River."
After traveling to the Qinhuai River, he returned to the Prince's Mansion of the East Palace. Sun Ruowei had no doubts about Wang Xiao's identity.
"Is it true that you said you would pardon Jingnan's orphans?"
Sun Ruowei in the room looked at Wang Xiao very seriously.
Unlike Nie Xing's men who vowed to take revenge, Sun Ruowei also wanted to take revenge but was more emotional. Compared to taking revenge, she was more concerned about the orphans of Jingnan who were exiled to Nuer Gandusi. This may be the so-called Holy Mother's Heart.
"One generation does one generation of things." Wang Xiao greeted the palace maids outside the door. "This generation will definitely have no choice. That would be to overturn the correctness of the Jingnan Battle. What would the civil and military officials who raised their grandfather think? This matter can only be done by the next generation. However, it is still OK to improve the lives of the orphans in Jingnan."
The palace maid came over to salute, and Wang Xiao waved his hand, "Go and get some food and drink, I want to entertain guests."
Wang Xiao waited for a while, wonderingly, looking at the palace maid who had not left, "Is there anything wrong?"
"If you want to go back to the grandson, Hu Shanxiang of Gong Zhengshi came to find the grandson today."
Wang Xiao turned his head and looked at Sun Ruowei. It was not the time to let their sisters meet.
"I understand." Wang Xiao nodded and said, "Go."
"This is a painting by Grand Secretary Jie Jin who wrote the Yongle Ceremony." Seeing Sun Ruowei curiously looking at the hanging tiger picture, Wang Xiao explained, "This is the title given to the crown prince by the emperor, and the answer is a missing poem."
"The emperor and the prince are incompatible, right?" Although they are not old, Sun Ruowei's vision is very outstanding.
Wang Xiao sat down directly on the table, "Why would you give me a poem?"
"Why should I help your family solve the problem?"
Wang Xiao knocked on the table, "I've invited you two meals. I've eaten people with weak mouths and short hands. I have to repay you."
Sun Ruo wrinkled his nose and glanced at him, turned around and went to the desk to pick up a brush to dip ink and came to the painting to prepare for the poem.
"Wait a moment."
Wang Xiao stepped forward and held her hand holding the pen from behind, "You said, I'll write."
Such close contact made Sun Ruowei blush and wanted to struggle to leave but was stopped by Wang Xiao.
"Stop making trouble, talk about it quickly."
After being complained by the evil man first, Sun Ruo glared at Wang Xiao with a slight angrily.
"A tiger is the Lord of the Beasts, who dares to touch his anger? Only parent-child relationship can be reviewed step by step."
"It's OK." Wang Xiao finished writing quickly, and threw away the brush with satisfaction. He raised Sun Ruowei's pretty face in both hands. "With this poem, the emperor's suspicion about the prince can be removed at least half of it."
Sun Ruowei couldn't stand such intimate contact. After struggling away, he avoided Wang Xiao far away. "Aren't they your grandfather and your father? Why did they keep calling the emperor and the prince?"
"If you want to know? You will know when you marry into the royal family."
Wang Xiao's strong attack made Sun Ruowei a little unable to withstand it. She even felt a little confused about how she came here.
"Eat first." Wang Xiao asked the palace maids to place the food boxes on the table, took the painting and walked towards the door, "I'll show you the merits."
Sun Ruowei can eat in the East Palace, but it will definitely not be able to stay overnight.
After dinner, Sun Ruowei insisted on leaving. Wang Xiao took her to the outside of the palace and called a group of Jinyiwei to send her back to the antique shop. "I'll go find you next time."
"What do you want to do?" Sun Ruowei completely didn't understand Wang Xiao's motives. If he wanted to know any information, he would just arrest him and sent him to the imperial edict and torture him in prison for confession.
As for what Wang Xiao said that he wanted to get close to him when he was beautiful, Sun Ruowei would never believe it.
There are so many beauties in the Ming Dynasty Palace. I have never seen any beautiful beauties around the crown prince.
Wang Xiao sighed lightly, "To be honest, you don't believe it, then you can just watch it yourself. I will find a way to save the people in the imperial prison. As for whether I should tell my identity to your companions, think about it carefully."
After Sun Ruowei left, Wang Xiao went directly to find Hu Shanxiang.
"See the Grandson." Gong Zhengshiri Hu Shangyi looked at Wang Xiao stepping in surprise. It was already time, why are you running into Gong Zhengshi?
Wang Xiao waved his hand to let them get up, pulled a chair and sat down to look at Hu Shanxiang, "I heard you are going to find me, who has bullied you?"
Hu Shangyi immediately looked at Hu Shanxiang with a sharp look.
Hu Shanxiang lowered his head and responded, "I have made some snacks and wanted to give them to the grandson."
"Where, take it and try it."
Hu Shanxiang has been in the palace for ten years, and his skills in making snacks are naturally unspeakable. Although it is just a simple mung bean cake, it is sweet but not greasy and very delicious.
"I'll have to pay off after eating the snacks you made today." Wang Xiao clapped his hands and stood up to leave. "Whoever bullies you in the future, come to me."
"Hu Shangyi." Wang Xiao looked at Hu Shangyi, who lowered his head and had no smile on his face. "This little girl is good, you have to take care of her more."
"yes."
After Wang Xiao left, Hu Shangyi, who was smiling, suddenly lowered her face and said, "What do you want to do?"
Hu Shanxiang packed the table and said, "The grandson has a life-saving grace with me, I just want to repay the grace."
"Repay kindness?" Hu Shangyi obviously didn't believe it. "You think I'm blind? I'll tell you, don't get to the grandson in the future!"
"yes."
Hu Shanxiang, who lowered his head, responded in a low voice, but her eyes were full of reluctance.
Jiming Temple is located on Jilong Mountain, hence the name.
Although the name sounds vulgar, it is the first of the 480 temples in the Southern Dynasties. That period can be regarded as the most prosperous period of Buddhism in China.
However, saving the suffering gradually turned into enjoying wealth and food, building temples and bells with copper, occupying a large amount of land and not paying taxes. They even did horrifying things like forcing the emperor to become a monk and asking civil and military officials to pay for the emperor.
In the later period, many emperors promoted the destruction of Buddhism, and were completely scared by them.
At this time, there was a famous monk living in Jiming Temple. His name was Yao Guangxiao and his Dharma name was Daoyan Monk.
Yao Guangxiao was wise and good at guessing people's hearts.
The reason why Zhu Di was determined to launch the Jingnan Campaign was largely influenced by him.
This is a smart man. After Jingnan, he refused Zhu Di's reward and only recited scriptures in the temple. Instead, he was valued by Zhu Di and would come to him for discussion when encountering major events. Although he did not have any serious official position, he was called the prime minister in black by the world.
Zhu Di came to see Yao Guangxiao this time because he was upset about the fact that his sons had a secret battle.
"Old monk, who do you think is better to be the prince?" Zhu Di, who was leaning on the couch, asked casually.
"The prince is the prince, so who will be the prince?" Yao Guangxiao played Go with serene satisfaction. "If Your Majesty is unsure, just have a cup of tea."
“Is this something a cup of tea can solve?”
"Hahahaha~" Yao Guangxiao smiled without saying a word, with a demeanor like a paranormal.
Wang Xiao walked in, and Yao Guangxiao winked at him. Wang Xiao stepped forward to salute and paid homage to Zhu Di.
"If you don't do your business well, why do you always run to me?"
Wang Xiao said, "It was the matter of building a sugar shop that I mentioned last time, and the money has not yet been settled."
"Hmph." Zhu Di looked at him with his eyes squinted, "If you want money, go find the prince. Don't look for me, I don't have money. I'm very happy to do this poem. Get up."
"Have the prince and the prince of Han come?"
Wang Xiao smiled and stood up, "They admit their mistakes outside."
Zhu Di weighed his feet, got up from the couch and walked out, "What's wrong with them? It's my fault after talking. Come with me."
Because of the battle for the crown prince, Zhu Di made a fierce attack. Then he took advantage of the tiger-carrying cubs sent by Wang Xiao and went down the steps.
At this time, I came to the front yard of Jiming Temple and preached to the prince and the King of Han.
Later, in front of many civil and military officials, the King of Han took the blame for him, saying that he had never said, "The prince is sick, so you should encourage him."
This was indeed what Zhu Di said to the King of Han, but it was because of this sentence that aroused the King of Han’s desire to fight for the throne.
At this time, in order to stabilize the overall situation, Zhu Di personally overturned his words, not only did he say that he wanted the King of Han to resist the blame. At the same time, it was also a punishment for his assassination of his brother.
Wang Xiao, who was standing by, watched the Han King, whose anger gathered as if a black cloud formed on his head, gritted his teeth and roared, "The emperor has never said it, I'm talking nonsense!"
"It seems that it was at this time that Zhu Gaoxu made up his mind to kill the old man together. This was not just taking the blame for the emperor. Saying this in front of all civil and military officials means that the legality of Zhu Gaoxu's snatching the crown prince's throne from a legal perspective."
Wang Xiao looked at Zhu Di. The emperor who killed Fang Xiaoru's ten clans was too sharp. Compared with his three sons, he was slightly inferior in small actions.
Perhaps it was because Zhu Di followed Chang Yuchun to fight the enemy when he was over 10 years old. When dealing with anything, he thought of using the general trend to suppress others. He directly pushed the enemy with unrivaled power.
As for his son, King Zhu Gaoxu of Han seemed to be a carefree martial artist, but in fact, his secret movements were like needles in cotton and made people fall into trouble without realizing it.
King Zhao Zhu Gaosui was a character hidden in the dark from beginning to end. He actually did not have the ability to participate in the battle for the throne. Zhu Gaosui himself knew this, so he was the most determined Han Wang Party.
The last one is the prince Zhu Gaochi. Although he looks like Maitreya Buddha, he is like a mirror in his heart and can see everything clearly and clearly.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao grinned silently as he looked at the prince who was facing the emperor's timid and seemed to be angry.
