Chapter 166 Borrowing Clothes

In late April of the 35th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Di appointed Xu as the queen.A few days after the ceremony, the queen and her children successively expressed their congratulations, and Xu then set up a family banquet in the Imperial Garden to entertain their relatives.

When the prince received the imperial edict, Yuan Gong had just arrived at the prince's mansion.

Yuan Gong came straight from Xuanzang Temple. He turned out to be a monk in the martial arts world and did not believe in Buddhism. He went to the temple just because Yao Guangxiao lived in the temple.

Yuan Gong and Jin Zhong were both recommended by Yao Guangxiao to the Yàn Palace, so they have today's high-ranking officials and generous salaries.

Yao Guangxiao made great contributions in the Jingnan Battle. After ascending the throne, he wanted to give him a mansion and a palace maid. He actually wanted nothing and lived in a temple.

In the morning, I wear official uniforms and go to court, and in the next court, I wear monk's robe.

The prince was busy changing his clothes, but did not avoid Yuan Gong and asked Yuan Gong what was wrong.Yuan Gong twisted the beard on his lips and said nothing.

So the prince put on the dragon suit and took off his servants and asked him again.

At this time, Yuan Gong said: Today seems inappropriate. Another day, I will go to court in the Imperial Gate. The prince can plead for Fang Xiaoru's family.

Ah?The prince was stroking his robe, and the movements in his hands immediately stopped there. He was shocked and said, "Is Yuan Sicheng wanting me to disobey my father?"

Yuan Gong frowned and said: It’s not a disobedience.

The prince held the chair and sat down. He didn't even want to stand for a moment. He would never want to stand if he could sit.

He said: My father will definitely be unhappy!Although Fang Xiaoru was famous, he refused to surrender and even scolded his father.Moreover, Fang Xiaoru's adopted son Fang Zhongyi stabbed the censor Jing Qing to death.The father blamed him for raising dead soldiers in captivity and was very angry!

The prince paused and continued to say, at the end of Hongwu, Jingqing had a good relationship with his father, and he was in danger, and had contacts since then. Jingqing's daughter once recognized her mother as her sister.However, Jing Qing was assassinated by Fang Xiaoru's support for the scholars in the street. If I pleaded for Fang Xiaoru's family at this time, wouldn't I make my father angry?

Yuan Gong said calmly: The prince’s words are reasonable.However, if the prince dares to take the lordship of the emperor, he must have be kind in his heart, and all the scholars in the world will see this righteous act.If the priest can accept the advice of the prince, it will also be beneficial to the priest.

When the prince heard this, he looked at each other with Yuan Gong.

The hearts of scholars in the world... Yuan Gong said in a deep voice again.

...The Imperial Garden is on the west side of Chunhe Hall.Zhu Gaoxu had to summon him and clean up. Thinking that it was a family banquet, he didn't care about that much and put on the purple round body to get things done.

He entered the city from Bei'anmen to the north of the imperial city, and then went north to the west gate. After walking through the long corridor, he entered the palace.

Walking through the corridor made Zhu Gaoxu feel very unhappy. The red walls on both sides were only a piece of the sky as big as a palm on his head, and he felt like he was trapped in a cage.

When Zhu Gaoxu walked into the Imperial Garden, he felt that the garden in the palace was nothing but a slightest garden in the city.

Because there are only sparse trees and floor tiles are paved in the middle, it looks very monotonous, probably to prevent hiding.

He also saw a pool and a rockery, which were also very monotonous, without any embellishments of flowers and plants, and could see it at a glance.

The trees were not close to the wall, and the wall was high, and they were in the palace and could not see anything outside.

Zhu Gaoxu suddenly felt that it would be depressing to be in this palace for a little longer.

An eunuch took Zhu Gaoxu and passed by the rockery. Zhu Gaoxu turned around and watched for a while before continuing to walk forward.

Suddenly, a little girl came towards her. Zhu Gaoxu thought she was a palace maid or a concubine at first, but after taking a look, she felt that she didn't look like her.

The little girl was very pretty, with delicate and fair skin, and her face was childish. The neck exposed from the collar and wrists outside the sleeves were as white and tender as peeled onions, and she looked white and pure.

However, the satin clothes this girl was wearing were obviously not suitable for hers and were obviously too big, as if they were not hers.

The little girl approached Zhu Gaoxu, then let her go aside, and slightly bent her knees to give her a blessing.She was very polite at first, but then she raised her head and looked at Zhu Gaoxu quietly, her big bright eyes as bright as the moonlight were full of curiosity.

The little girl gave Zhu Gaoxu a very good impression. Her purity and bright and calm eyes made people feel beautiful, as if there was no filth in the world, and the world was so bright, wonderful and full of vitality.

Zhu Gaoxu is nineteen years old this year and only has a shallow beard on his mouth, but he is obviously a man.It must be very rare to see a man in the palace, so she was curious?

Zhu Gaoxu also faced her gaze and looked at her. The girl lowered her eyes a little embarrassedly. Two blushings suddenly appeared on her beautiful cheeks. She was really a shy little girl.

You're not a person from the palace?Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help asking.

Since you are not from the palace, how could you wander around the Imperial Garden?

Of course he knew his sisters, but he didn't know this girl.

The little girl immediately asked briskly: How do you know?

I guessed it.Zhu Gaoxu said gently with a smile. He thought the little girl was innocent and cute, so he joked, "You are growing up, but there is no need to make your clothes so big?"Ha ha!

The little girl blushed, it was not my clothes.

oh?Zhu Gaoxu made a questioning voice.

The little girl blurted out: I borrowed it for me.I originally had clothes made of silk, but the silk is too delicate and will get old after two years and will easily break.I want to come to the palace, so I can't wear old clothes...

She just said this with a blunt heart, and seemed to think something was wrong, so she hurriedly stopped again.Her face suddenly turned red, and she looked very embarrassed.

Zhu Gaoxu was even more curious and said with a smile: What a strange thing. Women who can enter the palace need to borrow clothes?

The little girl looked at Zhu Gaoxu without saying a word.

Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said: I will ask casually, and forget it if I don’t want to say it, don’t force it.He spoke very gentlely, after all, he was talking to a beautiful little girl who was about thirteen or fourteen years old. The little girl was also very friendly, afraid of scaring her.

At this time, the little lady said: I was rude and said such embarrassing words. Don’t laugh at me.

Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand and said: No, it was me who was rude and shouldn't have asked more questions.Besides, clothes are not important. People are wiser in beauty, so who doesn’t respect them?Wang Baochuan lived in the Han Kiln for eighteen years, but she never looked down upon her.

After hearing this, the little girl said softly: Big brother is serious and kind to others.

Haha, thank you for the compliment.Zhu Gaoxu clasped his fists and said, "The girl is kind-hearted, and the people around him must be very happy."

...This woman is Guo Wei, the granddaughter of Wuding Marquis Guo Ying.

Her mother, Xu, is from the Empress's family.

At the Queen's family banquet, she invited the mother and daughter to the palace for the banquet.

My sister was very reserved, but Guo Wei was very curious about the imperial garden of the palace, so she walked around for a while before she met the young master just now.

Guo Wei was a little bit blamed for not paying attention to her words, and she knew that her family would soon be less embarrassed. After her grandfather passed away, her father said that it was because more than a dozen uncles and uncles had no agreement on the division of the family business.

As long as it is divided, why don’t you even have a new silk clothes?

This big brother is pretty good. He speaks gentlely and is very good at thinking about others.Guo Wei wanted to ask who he was, but she felt embarrassed and finally didn't ask.

She looked at him quietly for a few more times and saw that although he was not as gentle as a man, he was neat and clean, tall and upright, and did not look like a villain at all.

His clothes were ironed straight, the color was not eye-catching or patterned, but the material was lustered, and the white silk in the deep purple collar was spotlessly lined.

There is no decoration on her body, only a mutton fat jade pendant on her waist, which is milky white, warm and pure, and looks very valuable at first glance.

He looks not exaggerated and very elegant.

Moreover, his voice is magnetically nice, he speaks gently, speaks calmly, and is very kind to people.Only her mountain-like figure made Xiao Niang feel stressed and a faint suffocation.

At this time, he said: I have something to do, I won’t say much, I will say goodbye.

Guo Wei also saluted and said goodbye in panic.

The man turned around and walked away.

Guo Wei took two steps and couldn't help but look back at the tall and straight back.

For a moment, the back lingered in her mind and kept popping up in front of her... But she soon thought of her marriage and had promised her parents to marry the bully of Prince Gaoyang!

Guo Wei became depressed and walked listlessly, surrounding the pool and rockery.

Even Guo Wei felt that there was nothing to see in the imperial garden of the palace. Instead, it was a place for dining. The houses were really luxuriously built, and the pigment patterns on them could not be seen anywhere else.

She went back to her mother Xu silently.
