When we returned to the palace, it was already dark.
As soon as he entered the study, Zhao Jun began to give instructions to Wang Huaien: "Wang Banban, you will inform me tonight that Li Yi, Jiang He, Zhu Tuo, Yunli, and Guan Ning who stayed in Yunzhou County will come to the conference hall tomorrow morning. Discussion, I have important things to talk about!"
Although Wang Huai'en didn't understand what happened, he immediately agreed. Just as he was about to go out, he still couldn't hold it back and asked curiously: "My lord, you are so anxious, what happened? "
Zhao Jun glanced at him, then sighed and said:
"It's not a big deal, it's just that I got the news that my good father finally remembered that he had a son who was an older single young man, so he was ready to let me get a wife.
Presumably, the news of calling me back to the capital will come soon. Before that, I have to arrange everything in Yunzhou County first, so I need to discuss with those smart people about what I will do after I enter the capital. Come down to Yunzhou County to do the work. "
Wang Huai'en didn't understand the prince's strange words at first, but he soon extracted the key information. After thinking about it again, he immediately said in surprise: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty is finally ready to let you marry the princess? This is a good thing!"
As a servant of the vassal king, he knew that for a vassal with a princely level like his own prince, the Holy Emperor would decide on the marriage, and only a woman approved by the Holy Lord could become a princess.
According to the etiquette of the Song Dynasty, before the princess gave birth to the heir, other concubines of the vassal king were not allowed to give birth to children, unless the princess was infertile.
This also led to the fact that his prince obviously had a woman, but he had not given birth to an heir until now. It was not that the prince was incompetent, but that he could not give birth to an heir.
And now the emperor wants to choose a princess for his prince, which means that when the princess comes in, his prince can have an heir!
This is a great joy!
As the prince's chamberlain, he was destined to be tied to the prince, so naturally he wanted to see the emergence of the young prince. Now that he finally saw the dawn of the young prince's appearance, how could he be unhappy?
Zhao Jun didn't understand his excitement. Although he had been reborn in this world for more than 20 years, his memories of his previous life still made him incompatible with current human concepts.
Regarding the matter of marrying a princess, he was just curious, wondering why his emperor suddenly thought of him. However, he did not pay too much attention to the question of when to give birth to an heir. On the contrary, Wang Huaien and other subordinates were interested in the matter. I'm more concerned about this.
It’s true that the prince is not in a hurry but the eunuch is!
Out of expectation for the young prince, Wang Huaien ran all over the city and outside the city overnight, notifying several people to discuss matters the next morning.
Several people had never seen Wang Huaien come so late and thought it was something important. As soon as the city gate opened, they all gathered at the gate of the palace.
After everyone arrived, they were welcomed into the living room and asked about it. Only then did they find out that the prince had not gotten up yet.
When asked when to get up, the boy pointed to a big rooster with a bright red comb that was striding majestically in the yard outside and said: "Whenever the second crow of dawn is, the prince will get up."
"Dawn?"
The five people all had question marks on their faces, but they also understood that when the big rooster crows for the second time, the prince will get up.
Everyone looked up at the sky outside.
Fortunately, everyone looked at the sky and found that it was almost the beginning of Mao hour, and most of the roosters would crow for the second time at this time.
This means that the prince is about to wake up.
So a group of people just stared at the big rooster that was wandering around in the yard to croak early, expecting it to crow early.
Time passed, and soon it was the beginning of Mao hour, and the sky was slightly brighter.
"Oh oh oh!!!"
The dawn did not disappoint everyone's expectations, the crow started as soon as the hour arrived, and everyone was overjoyed!
He hurriedly asked the boy who came over to serve tea when the prince would be coming.
The boy looked at everyone in surprise and said, "Your Majesty hasn't gotten up yet. Didn't you say when the dawn will be called for the second time? When will Your Majesty wake up?"
Even with a helpless look, Li Yidang pointed to the bell outside that was still crowing in the sky and said, "Isn't that what it's doing?"
The boy glanced at him. For some reason, Li Yi could see the contempt in it. The boy continued: "The prince usually wakes up when the dawn is called for the second time. Now the dawn has just been called for the second time." Once, it’s still too early for the second time.”
"Don't the roosters crow for the first time at the end of the year?"
Jiang He asked.
The boy nodded: "Generally, the rooster will indeed crow for the first time at the end of the Yin hour, but the rooster is different. When the rooster first came into the house, he crowed for the first time at the end of the Yin hour. The prince caught him and showed him in front of him. One chicken's neck was cut, then two were cut the second time, three were cut the third time, and the fourth time the knife was placed on Zhongxiao's neck.
So from that time on, the time of dawn and crow was postponed by a whole hour.
This is just the first time it crows, and the second time it crows is usually at the beginning of Chen hour. "
After listening to the young man's story, everyone couldn't help but look blank. Their faces were full of disbelief that the person who did this was actually the usually majestic King Yun Mian. This is... ahem... this is really the temperament of a young man. ah!
Then everyone looked out and sympathized with Xianxiao who was wandering around in the courtyard looking for bugs in the cracks of the floorboards.
However, Xiaoxiao just turned his head slightly, glanced at them, clucked for a while, and then continued to run to the next place with his head held high to find food.
"Cluck, cluck, cluck, cluck..."

"Stupid bipedal apes, how do you understand the joy of Lord Chicken?
Still sympathize with Mr. Chicken?
Master Ji's work time has been delayed, but you guys came to check in early. How dare you little Karamies look at Master Ji with that look?
→_→”
Everyone learned the exact time. Although they were a little helpless that they had to wait for so long, their hearts finally calmed down and they chatted and waited in the hall.
The sun gradually rose, and soon the chen hour arrived, and the dawn call, which had been eaten and drank enough, sounded the second time on time!
"Oh oh oh!!!"
When the rooster sings, the whole world becomes white!
Ahem, even though this rooster crows a little late, the world has already turned white.
But to Li Yi and others, the cry of dawn was as joyful as a thirsty traveler in the desert finding an oasis.
Sure enough, not long after, a servant came to inform the five people to gather in the conference hall. The prince would arrive shortly.
Just like this, the hungry powerful people in Yunzhou County went to the living room, but our Prince Yun had just gotten up and was slowly eating a bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge.
Chew carefully and slowly, it is extremely healthy...
