It is summer, and the morning in Yunnan is still a bit cool.
Zhu Gaoxu got up early in the morning and took more than 300 soldiers from the personal guards and the defensive center, each carrying 60 kilograms of weight, and ran two laps in the spacious three hall areas of the royal palace.
When he arrived at the study room east of Chengyun Hall, it was already dawn.
As the prince of the Ming Dynasty, I really didn’t do anything serious, but Zhu Gaoxu maintained active fighting spirit every day after getting up!
Although the entire Yunnan Provincial Administration Commission had a population of more than 700,000 Han people, Zhu Gaoxu also believed that this was his new starting point; at least in terms of strength, he was a hundred times better than the time when he was in the capital and was stared at by a large group of people.
There are two invitations on the desk in the study.
One was given by Mu's house. The old lady of the Mu family, Geng, posted a banquet for Zhu Gaoxu.
Another one was actually given by Chen’s mansion. Chen Xu wrote that the Liyuan had arranged a new play and sang the first show this afternoon, and asked Zhu Gaoxu to watch the play.
She used methods to play with Zhu Gaoxu last time, and seemed to think he didn't know!
What made Zhu Gaoxu even more angry was that it was obvious from the investigation report of the defence station that Mu Sheng had never been to the Liyuan again after recovering from his illness, and it had been almost a month. Chen Xu's trick seemed to have played some role.
However, Chen Xu's family is not useless, she at least knows Yunnan very well. Zhu Gaoxu knew about the approximate number of Chinese people in the Han Dynasty when he talked to her last time.
...The Yunnan governor should know a lot of things, but Zhu Gaoxu was very conscious and did not ask the officials in Yunnan. Because according to the rules, he, a prince, could not control the governor and the governor.
On the contrary, the Xiping Hou Musheng was able to manage Yunnan's military and political affairs.
Since the Hongwu period, the emperor has ordered that civil and military officials at all levels must first report to the Mu Mansion before they can be implemented!The three emperors of Hongwu, Jianwen and Yongle did not take back their lives.
Mu Sheng is not only a marquis, but his actual power is equivalent to that of the governor of Yunnan. He is above the three departments of the Commander-in-Chief, Yunnan Provincial Administration and Censor-in-Chief, and controls the military, political and judicial powers.
So the prince Zhu Gaoxu just has a high status; he would not think that the fief of Yunnan Prefecture, and the entire Yunnan Province really belongs to him.
In Yunnan, Zhu Gaoxu now has less power than Mu Sheng or more military power.
Fortunately, Mu Sheng has expressed kindness since the first meeting.
Otherwise, Zhu Gaoxu would have fought with Mu Sheng directly, and it would be hard to say who would take advantage of him... King Min was in Yunnan, from the Hongwu period to the early years of Yongle, and he never saw Mu Sheng fall.
Zhu Gaoxu decided to accept Chen Xu's invitation and go to Liyuan to watch the show in the afternoon.
When dealing with a businessman widow, Zhu Gaoxu still decided to act in a low-key manner and go there with a light car.However, this time he found the Guardians' King's Team and first deployed more than a dozen eyes and ears inside and outside the Liyuan.
Zhu Gaoxu got into an ordinary carriage, took a few followers, and then went out from the west gate of the palace.
When the carriage was walking on the street, I would occasionally see some toasts in strange costumes, but most of them were still Han people.The population of chieftains in Yunnan is greater than that of Han people, but most of the cities in Yunnan are still Han people.
...Liyuan has a new show today, and the flower actress is Li Louxian.Mu Zhen hadn't seen her cousin Geng Hao for a while, so she asked the close servants of the Yi tribe around her to make an appointment with Geng Hao as she acted in "The West Chamber".
The close servants of the Yi tribe had martial arts skills and could use swords and shoot arrows.
Originally Mu Zhen gave her the name Yao'er, but when the people in the house called her Amei, thinking that the Yi people would call Xiaoniang like this; so Yao'er's name inexplicably became Amei.
Amei told Mu Zhen that even their tribe members didn't call Xiaoniang that, but Riza; so Amei didn't like her name very much.
There is a small gate to the west of Mu Mansion, and it is a street to go out; but this street does not allow people outside the mansion to enter and exit, and there are gates and soldiers guarding the street at the entrance, so Mu Zhen cannot go there and hang out.
On this street, all living are slaves from Mu's mansion.
However, there is one of the Yi people, who is a fellow villager of Amei; and the Yi slaves love to drink especially.
Mu Zhen once asked Amei to bring the wine to deliver it; and after she promised that even if they were found out that they would not give up the slaves of the Yi tribe, they would sneak out of the Mu Mansion from the yard.
Mu Zhen knew that even if her parents knew about her secretly going out, she would not be able to do anything.She felt that as long as she was not discovered to see Geng Hao privately, everything would be fine.
Today, after Mu Zhen disguised herself, she took Ah Mei and sneaked out of Mu's mansion from the west.Yesterday I gave a pot of good wine to Amei's fellow villager, so it went very smoothly.
...Zhu Gaoxu arrived at the Liyuan and was led straight to the elegant seat upstairs.
From here, looking down at the lobby from a high place, you can see the scene in the theater lobby clearly. Today, the new drama was held, and the lobby was full again.
He sat down in his seat, and the two personal guards who were accompanying him stood behind him. After a while, Chen Xu came in person.
Zhu Gaoxu turned his head to look at the door and saw that Chen Xu was wearing a light-colored cotton skirt today, but he still didn't wear a lot of jewelry.
The Ming Dynasty banned merchants from wearing silk, but few laws were truly implemented. Chen Xu's wife went out to wear cotton cloth. Is it because of that law?
I have met the young master. Chen Xu bent his knees gently, lowered his eyes, and made a happy face with a graceful and gentle attitude.
Zhu Gaoxu sat down and didn't move, just said: Mrs. Meng is very kind to entertain, please.
Chen Xu walked to the chair opposite, reached out and gently flicked behind the skirt, and sat upright on the chair.
When the servant brought the teapot and tea cup, Chen Xu picked up the purple clay pot and poured a cup of tea with his own hands, handed it on his hands and said: If there is something wrong, I hope the young master will not be surprised.
Zhu Gaoxu took it but didn't drink it. He suddenly smiled and said: I heard that the Marquis of Xiping often came to the Liyuan. Why haven't I heard that he came again in the past month?
Chen Xu's face did not change and said softly: I heard that the Queen of Xiping had been ill before, or had she recovered from a serious illness, so I didn't want to listen to the opera?
Zhu Gaoxu thought to himself: Still pretending in front of me!This girl is very calm.
At this moment, a general wearing a green cloth walked to the door.Zhu Gaoxu turned his head to look at him, and the general bowed in and bowed his head to Zhu Gaoxu's ear.
Sitting opposite, Chen Xu, still smiled slightly, picked up the small cup and took a sip, and turned to look at the stage as if nothing had happened.
The general covered his mouth with his palms and said in an extremely low voice in Zhu Gaoxu's ear: The brothers from the Mu Mansion just reported to the Jinshou Branch that the Mu family's mother and the two of them went out. It should be the little girl the prince had mentioned.
Zhu Gaoxu nodded, and the general then folded his fists and retreated.
Chen Xu turned his head and smiled and said: I heard that the old lady of the Mu family will be having a banquet for the birthday of the next month. The old lady loves to listen to operas very much.
Oh... Zhu Gaoxu nodded.
At this moment, he found that the Mu family’s mother was looking at this place at the door of the lobby, as if she had seen Zhu Gaoxu.
Chen Xu also looked at him slightly and continued: Mu Mansion has a family opera troupe, but the opera troupe in Liyuan can sing better than the family opera troupe.
Zhu Gaoxu saw the little lady of the Mu family walking upstairs and spoke to Chen Xu: Is Madam going to the banquet?
Chen Xu covered his mouth and chuckled: Thank you for your praise, but of course the Mu Mansion will not invite me. Although Shen Jiaxianweng had an old age with King Qianning; I had some personal relationships with the Queen of Xiping, but my identity was not a good place... But Li Louxian's group of actors could borrow from Your Highness and send them to Mu's house for a few days to sing. The old lady must like Your Highness's gift very much.
Zhu Gaoxu thought: I went to the banquet and I would like to give some gifts as gifts, but the Mu family was not short of money.It would be great if I gave me some things that the old lady liked.
He originally wanted to make indirect and trick Chen Xu's name, but suddenly he couldn't say it. He immediately clasped his fists and said: Since that's the case, thank you madam first.
A simple task. Chen Xu said.
At this time, a woman walked to the door and said with a knee: Young master, there is a little girl who says she knows you, but I don’t know...
She was right.Zhu Gaoxu said casually.
The woman then took the tribute and retreated.After a while, the young lady of the Mu family dressed in a woman, a strangely dressed toast woman, and the handsome Geng Hao came to the door of the court.
Brother, I’m fine, I’m really lucky.The little girl of the Mu family bowed and said, "Geng Hao also held the tribute."
Chen Xu stood up calmly, smiled and said with a smile: The young master’s friend is here, so I will leave for the time being.
Zhu Gaoxu bowed and replied with a gift.
The little lady of the Mu family walked in and looked back at Chen Xu. Mu Xiaoniang probably didn't know Chen Xushi. She smiled and said: That woman is so beautiful. I've disturbed my good things. I'm sorry.
Please sit down.Zhu Gaoxu greeted.
Mu Xiaoniang and Geng Hao sat opposite each other. The toast girl should be just a servant, standing behind the two of them.Geng Hao blushed and said: What a coincidence, I didn’t expect to meet my brother again today...
I really don’t mention the twenty-ton coins of money anymore. I’ve already thrown away the debt.Zhu Gaoxu was a little impatient and said it first.
Mu Xiaoniang said: I don’t want to mess with my good things, but I didn’t catch up with the seat today, so there are too many people.
It's easy to say.Zhu Gaoxu said.
At this time, the actor's tone came from below, and Zhu Gaoxu said: I'm starting to sing.
Mu Xiaoniang and Geng Hao both turned sideways and looked at the stage.
Not long after, there was a noise in the lobby.A female actor had just appeared on stage and before she started singing, there were waves coming from below. OK!Good... sound.
The female actor had a heavy color on her face, and she couldn't see how she looked clearly. Zhu Gaoxu didn't know what was going on anyway.
But soon she sang, and her voice was indeed straight and her movements were very charming.
Although Zhu Gaoxu didn't understand the drama very well, after listening to it for a while, he got used to listening to the tone and thought it was quite nice.
Moreover, the lyrics of the opera are very slow and you can understand the plot.
In the Ming Dynasty, listening to opera was indeed one of the only spiritual entertainments.
As soon as he heard the content of the play, suddenly, a clang sound of metal hitting something came!
Zhu Gaoxu got up early in the morning and took more than 300 soldiers from the personal guards and the defensive center, each carrying 60 kilograms of weight, and ran two laps in the spacious three hall areas of the royal palace.
When he arrived at the study room east of Chengyun Hall, it was already dawn.
