First Prince of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 42 The Prince's East Palace

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed. From what era he came from, he naturally knew the behavior of those officials' children: "You don't need to persuade, it's not that you can't change it in the future. At least we have to see that our grandchildren have no worries about food and clothing for a lifetime."

Zhu Biao shook his head and laughed, his father's meaning is very clear, he doesn't care about this matter, and he will change it himself when Zhu Biao succeeds to the throne! Anyway, he is definitely a good father and grandfather.

It doesn't matter to Zhu Biao. With Zhu Yuanzhang's personality, he has a lot to change after he inherits the great rule. Now he only needs to persuade Zhu Yuanzhang not to set dead rules.

As a son of man, it is impossible for him to overthrow his father's national policy of doomed death with his own hands. To do that would be disrespect to the first emperor, the great ancestor, and disfilial piety!

Even if there are thousands of benefits, all kinds of reasons are beyond the pen and ink of a scholar.

Zhu Biao and his mother looked at each other, and they both felt that this kind of thing might happen frequently in the future.

Then the whole family had a peaceful meal, Zhu Biao got up and said goodbye to his father and queen, and Shi Shiran returned to the East Palace.

East Palace is a general term, which includes many palaces. The real residence of the prince is Chengqian Palace, which means "following God's will".

Chengqian Palace has two entrances, the main entrance is called Chengqian Gate, which opens to the south. The main hall in the front yard is the Chengqian Palace, with a width of 5 rooms, a Xieshan-style roof covered with green glazed tiles, and 5 animals on each cornice.

Under the eaves, there is a single warped, single raised and five stepped Dougong, decorated with dragon, phoenix and seal paintings. The indoor floor is made of square bricks, and the ceiling is painted with double phoenixes. There is a spacious platform in front of the hall, where the prince can watch the moon on a clear night.

There are 3 supporting halls in the east and west. There are 5 main halls in the backyard, side rooms on both sides, 3 side halls in the east and west, and a well pavilion in the southwest corner.

Zhu Biao looked at the guards of the palace who knelt on one knee as he passed by, and he was really envious. Unfortunately, he is not like the prince of the Tang Dynasty with the six ranks of the East Palace.

In the imperial palace, there are the pro-army Duwei Mansion (Jinyiwei), the Banner Guard, the Jinwu Vanguard, the Jinwu Guard, the Habayashi Left Guard, the Habayashi Right Guard, the Fujun Guard, the Fujun Left Guard, the Fujun Right Guard, the Fujun Vanguard, and the Fujun Backguard The guards, Huben Zuowei, these guards belonged to the emperor's direct troops, and they were all selected from the army.

Zhu Biao shook his head and went back to Chengqian Hall, where Yunjin led Nuanyu's big and small Shuang'er and a large group of court ladies and eunuchs to greet him.

Zhu Biao looked at them kneeling on the ground, and greeted them loudly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I will welcome you, Your Majesty."

Zhu Biao raised his hand and looked at the crowd of about forty or fifty people: "Get up! From now on, the maids and embroidered women will be under Yun Jin's care, and the eunuchs and cooks will be under Liu Jin's care. Let's go."

Zhu Biao knew that only those with higher status were qualified to visit the prince. He estimated that there were nearly 200 people busy in the entire East Palace, just to serve him alone.

Yun Jin and Liu Jin went to arrange the internal affairs of the East Palace, and Nuan Yu and Xiao Shuang'er followed Zhu Biao into Chengqian Hall.

There are already six maids waiting inside, all young and beautiful ladies, each with their own characteristics, Zhu Biao looked back at Nuanyu, and saw her face full of grievances: "Sister Yunjin chose them all."

Zhu Biao smiled and rubbed her hair, and the maids hurriedly lowered their heads, and immediately understood that they should treat Nuanyu respectfully in the future.

Zhu Biao didn't bother to pay attention to them. He was a bit cold-hearted, that is to say, the four who served him since he was a child had affection. A positive atmosphere.

Looking around, the newly built palace is magnificent, with various dragon and phoenix patterns carved all around, and some decorations are special things.

The main hall is supported by four tall Panlong pillars, and there is a desk seat above the six steps, which is his exclusive seat. Except for him and the emperor, it is a capital offense for anyone to sit on it.

Zhu Biao walked up slowly, while Nuan Yu and the others stopped below, watching him step by step, his bright yellow figure getting taller and taller.

Zhu Biao turned around and sat down, then glanced at the empty hall, a few maids came out and there was no one there, looking a little lonely.

After sitting for a while, Zhu Biao got up and went to the backyard, which was similar to Wu Wangfu. There was a well pavilion in the southwest corner, and there was a well in the middle of the bright red pavilion.

Zhu Biao asked someone to pour out a bucket, and before he could drink it, Liu Jin hurried over and took a sip after confessing his guilt: "My lord, this servant will arrange someone to guard the well day and night after a while!"

Zhu Biao shook his head, but he didn't care. He felt that he hadn't given Liu Jin the wrong name, so he was cautious enough!

He has also read it over the years, Liu Jin is a good person, he knows how to advance and retreat, and he is cautious in everything, unless he is carrying out Zhu Biao's order, he is respectful and polite to everyone.

Liu Jin didn't spend much of the bounty money he gave these years, most of it was used for running errands for him, and the rest was saved to give Yunjin Nuanyu and the others some small gifts on their birthdays.

After Zhu Biao watched him feel it for a while to make sure he was fine, he made a bucket of water with his own hands, filled half a bowl and handed it to him with both hands: "Master, this water is cold, you can drink a little. If you like, the servant will use this to drink at night." Water for your tea.

Zhu Biao took a sip and exhaled: "Liu Jin, you have been asking more about famous doctors recently."

Liu Jin was taken aback and asked, "Master, are you feeling unwell? This servant is going to call the imperial physician!"

Zhu Biao hurriedly said: "I'm fine. The Heavenly King's imperial physician asked for a pulse before, but there are other things. Just go and do it!"

As soon as Liu Jin heard that it wasn't about her own prince, she immediately relaxed: "I know about this, I will arrange for someone to inquire about the famous doctor soon!"

Then Liu Jin said again: "Master, you are already His Royal Highness, you should change your name."

Zhu Biao was taken aback for a moment, he was really used to calling himself "I" for so many years, and it's really no wonder his father still called himself "We".

Zhu Biao smiled: "It should be changed."

As soon as Liu Jin heard this, she bent down and said, "The servant has already gone to ask for advice, you are the master of the East Palace, you should call yourself "My Palace".

Zhu Biao was delighted when he heard it: "You are more caring than Bengong."

Liu Jin smiled and said: "You can also call yourself the king, but after all, you haven't been crowned king yet. As for the servants, it is inappropriate for His Highness to call you "Gu"."

Zhu Biao also nodded. Most of the princes in other dynasties were named king first and then prince. Naturally, he could call himself the king, but he skipped the title of king and became the prince directly.

As for calling him an orphan, that's purely itchy. His father, queen, and empress are still alive, and a teenage brat calls himself "orphan." I'm afraid Old Zhu will have to beat him up.

Calling herself "Bengong" may feel a bit bitch, but that's all there is to it.
