The last time I went to the Zongren Mansion was when I was canonized as King Yun, paid homage to the Imperial Ancestral Temple and put the king's dish into the Zongren Mansion. It had been seven years since then.
Fortunately, Zhao Jun still remembered the way to the Zongren Mansion, so he directly directed the team to the Zongren Mansion without asking passers-by.
The team was huge and marched through the streets in a mighty manner. After walking for nearly half an hour, they finally arrived in front of the Zongren Mansion.
Looking at the three gilded characters hanging on the door of Nuo Da's Zongren Mansion - Zongren Mansion.
This also means that everyone has arrived.
Wang Huaien took the lead in a sensible manner and knocked the door knocker of the Zongren Mansion, making a loud banging sound as three people knocked on the door.
After a while, the door of the Zongren Mansion opened with a creak, and a head poked out to look outside. At a glance, he saw such a large group of people stopped outside the Zongren Mansion. He was shocked!
But then he seemed to remember where this place was, and his confidence surged up again.
He asked Wang Huaien with a serious face: "Who are you? Why are you knocking on the door of the clan's mansion? Do you know that if you come to the clan's mansion for no reason to have fun, you will be arrested for picking quarrels and causing trouble!"
When Wang Huaien heard this, he just smiled slightly and said to the child who looked like he was still a teenager:
"Your Excellency, I am a servant of His Majesty the Prince of Yun. Now Your Highness, Prince Yun, has returned to the capital in anticipation of His Majesty's orders. He is coming to the Zongren Mansion to report. Please inform the officials in the mansion as soon as possible to help complete the report." matters."
Wang Huaien's attitude was very respectful and his etiquette was in place. Otherwise, he didn't mean to look down on others just because he was a young man.
The Clan Mansion, as the name suggests, is the place where the royal family manages the clan.
Except for the eunuchs and maids, all those who can work in the clan's mansion are the clan's children.
This young man didn't look like a young eunuch. He must have been a junior official from one of the clan's families and had taken a position in the clan's mansion.
As a servant of the royal family, I must ensure that the etiquette is in place when dealing with the children of the clan, otherwise I will lose the face of my prince, who will be laughed at by other children of the clan for not being able to educate his servants well.
"King Yun?"
After hearing what he said, the young man was stunned at first, but then he seemed to remember something. He opened his eyes wide and asked, "Is he the former Sixth Prince! Did he actually return to the capital?!"
Wang Huaien smiled and nodded: "It's my prince!"
The young man was stunned for a moment, but then he immediately reacted and slammed the door of the clan's mansion.
Through the gate, Wang Huai'en could hear clearly that the little official behind the door had started shouting.
"The prince of a foreign vassal has entered the capital, and the former sixth prince has returned. Everyone, hurry up and prepare!"
Looking at the door that was closed again and listening to the noise coming from inside, Wang Huaien fell silent. If you go and notify, why do you have to close the door?
Doesn't this just make us wait here?
Yet that is exactly what happened.
Fortunately, everyone was patient, and the group of people waited quietly outside the clan's mansion.
In the Document Pavilion of the Zongren Mansion, Da Zongzheng Zhao Xi was flipping through the newly printed Zonghuang Book one by one.
Look at how many Dingkou have been added to the clan this year, how many old clans have left, and confirm the number of existing clan members.
Just after reading it, and about to sigh that the number of Dingkou members in the clan has decreased this year, and that there are more deceased clan members than in the past, Da Zongzheng suddenly heard a commotion coming from outside.
At first, he was still far away, and Zhao Xi couldn't hear clearly what was being shouted?
But as the sound got closer and closer, and finally stopped at the door, Zhao Xi could vaguely hear which vassal king had entered the capital.
But then he changed his mind and thought, that's not right!
Since the founding of the Song Dynasty, no vassal king has been canonized outside the country.
Wait...there seems to be one!
It seems that the sixth son of the Holy Master was canonized six years ago, right?
Could it be that he is back?
Before Zhao Xi could figure it out, his door was pushed open violently!
"Da Zongzheng! Da Zongzheng! The sixth brother from the emperor's uncle's lineage is back, saying he wants to come to the clan mansion to report! What should we do?"
The young man who had just opened the door rushed in and approached Da Zongzheng Zhao Xi, who was still holding the yellow book, and asked eagerly.
Zhao Xi was not as flustered as he was. After all, he had been a Da Zongzheng for many years, so he still had a certain level of authority and a stable character.
Upon hearing this, he first gave the young man a violent shudder, and then scolded him:
"Xiao Twelve, how many times have I told you, don't be so rash, you are a clan member, you have to..."
"You must have the etiquette and demeanor of a clan member, and you must always show the majesty and manners of the royal family outside. You must not be lawless like a wild boy, jumping up and down all day long."
Before Da Zongzheng could finish speaking, the young man who was knocked violently trembled and immediately covered his head in despair as he picked up what he was going to say next.
Immediately afterwards, the young man looked helpless and said:
"Da Zongzheng, you've said this eight hundred times, and I can recite it by heart, so why don't you say it again, okay?
I'm not just in the clan's mansion. When I go out on weekdays, I also maintain a royal demeanor and demeanor, and I definitely don't lose the clan's face! "
As soon as this boy answered the call, Zong Zong's main words were stuck in his throat, and he looked extremely uncomfortable. He choked for a while before losing his temper and said: "I know you haven't paid attention, don't think that you are in the sect's house. You can be bold. You are a relative of the royal family, and your actions always represent the royal family. How can you only do superficial things?
Next time you let me see you so reckless, believe it or not, I will fine you a salary? "
As soon as he heard about the fine, the young man's face suddenly changed, and he begged with a sad face: "Dazong doesn't want it! I live on this salary. If you fine me, your great nephew will eat dirt, and you don't want to Isn’t it embarrassing to see the clan members going out to eat dirt because they can’t survive?”
Zhao Xi almost laughed angrily at him, shook his head helplessly, nodded, and then said: "Okay, okay, don't pretend to be pitiful here, I won't let you do this.
What did you say just now, the sixth son of the official family is back?
Do you want to come to the Zongren Mansion to report?
What about that person?
You wouldn't let people in and keep them out, right? "
The young man was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but then his face instantly turned red. He lowered his head like a monkey's butt and said in embarrassment, "What about that? Didn't I forget it?"
Zhao Xi was so angry that he gave him another violent shock, then quickly put the yellow book in his hand back on the bookcase and walked quickly outside.
At the same time, he said loudly and energetically as he walked: "Get ready quickly. Someone will come and open the door. It's no big deal to shut out the vassal king who enters the capital. Do others think that our clan is deliberately treating others harshly?!
Where have all the people died and done their work! Come out quickly! "
With his shouts, the clan house, which usually had nothing to do and just let the clan members eat and wait, suddenly became lively. A large number of people came out from nowhere and began to prepare in a hurry. stand up.
The public room, which had been quiet just now with not even a single person in sight, was instantly filled with people. Everyone was sitting eagerly at their posts, waiting to report to the first vassal king to enter the capital since the establishment of the Zongren Mansion!
People are getting rusty after spending every day in this house eating and waiting to die. It's not easy for them to come back to life. Everyone thinks it's quite refreshing.
Otherwise, even if Da Zongzheng screams at his throat, he may not be able to call out these guys who are hiding and fishing.
And the door of the sect's mansion that had just been closed was finally slowly opened by the hands of two excited sect members...
Squeak~

I thought this chapter was quite interesting, hahaha. After Xiao Twelve wrote it, it gave me a feeling of déjà vu.
