The atmosphere of the ensuing conversation seemed a bit strange, and it finally ended after half an hour.
Zhu Jingyuan originally wanted to send Gao Shuyan out, but the latter felt that this was inappropriate. After all, Gao Shuyan was dismissed by the emperor and could be regarded as a guilty person.
So Zhu Jingyuan sent him to Yimen. After the two finally said goodbye again, Gao Shuyan reluctantly walked out of the East Palace.
After exiting the East Palace, turn left. In front of you is Dong'an Gate. After exiting this palace gate, you will be outside the imperial city.
Outside the palace gate, Wang Jinru was waiting. When he saw Gao Shuyan coming out, he immediately greeted him.
After the two got on the carriage together, they heard Wang Jinru ask: "Mr. Gao, what did you say?"
"said!"
"What did the prince say?"
Sighing, Gao Shuyan replied: "I think the prince understands, but I'm still worried!"
Wang Jinru nodded, but didn't say anything more. They had no control over what happened next.
After calming down, Wang Jinru sighed: "Do you really want to follow me to Jinling?"
"Is there still a holiday? Let's go and have a look... It's good to relax!"
…………
Let's talk about it. In the palace, after learning what happened in the Criminal Department, Zhu Jinghong really felt at ease.
At the same time, he had to lament that Hideyoshi Okamoto was such a talented person that he actually took such a big turn to show his loyalty.
Now that he felt at ease, Zhu Jinghong naturally did not intend to stay idle. After sneaking out of the school, he changed his clothes and rushed to Xiyuan outside the palace.
Nowadays, the trend of martial arts is relatively strong, and some confrontational games have been derived, such as the currently popular Cuju and polo.
As far as Zhu Jinghong knew, after the Emperor's Holy Birthday Festival, warriors from all over the world would be summoned to compete in martial arts, including basic horseback shooting and polo.
For this reason, Daming also selected corresponding people to prepare for the competition, and they are now practicing in Xiyuan.
Xiyuan is to the west of the palace, not far from Xihua Gate. Unfortunately, before Zhu Jinghong could get out, he was stopped by people coming from Kunning Palace.
"Thirteenth Master, the Queen has summoned you to see you!"
"Didn't I just ask An in the morning? Why did you call me over at this time?" Zhu Jinghong asked.
"This...servant doesn't even know!"
Zhu Jinghong didn't want to go, but he had to go. He didn't want to break his old mother's heart.
To be honest, the queen treated him very well. In addition to caring for him every day, she also gave him food and drink every day, treating him as a child and loving him.
In desperation, Zhu Jinghong had no choice but to reply: "That's okay, let's go and have a look first!"
When Zhu Jinghong rushed to the inner court, in the Nuan Pavilion of Kunning Palace, Queen Yang Qingyin was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.
In front of her was a girl wearing a moon-white double-breasted short coat and a dark green phoenix-patterned horse-faced skirt.
The girl is slim and graceful, with a delicate and elegant appearance. She is being looked at happily by Yang Qingyin.
"This girl is very good-looking. Some people even believe her when she says she was born to her!"
The person who said this was Concubine Jia, the only concubine in the harem, whose position was extremely high and noble.
However, these words made Zhu Yunsheng on the side unhappy, because he was obviously his biological child.
"What's so great about it... Why don't you just obediently serve as a chambermaid with me, and see if I don't make fun of her then!"
Concubine Jia didn't know that her words had made Zhu Yunsheng jealous, and she had caused trouble for Yang Jingting for nothing.
"You must have suffered a lot all the way from Gansu!"
Yang Jingting replied softly: "Going back to the Queen, although the journey was bumpy, I also saw a lot of scenery!"
Yang Qingyin nodded, secretly thinking that this is a girl who understands etiquette.
"There is no need to have sex in the future. Just call me aunt. Whatever you want to eat and play with, just tell your maid. Don't be heretical!"
"Thank you Emperor...aunt!"
"That's right!" Yang Qingyin smiled again.
However, at this moment, despite Yang Jingting's calm appearance, she was actually very panicked, for fear of doing something wrong or saying something wrong.
Although her mother and the nuns in the palace had taught her for several months at home, so that she could master all the rules and regulations, she still felt a little flustered when she entered the palace.
No one else, just because this is the palace, the most sacred and supreme place in the eyes of the world.
Anyone who comes here for the first time will be shocked by the majesty and solemnity of this place, and it is extremely normal to feel awe.
"Shou Fen!"
"The slave is here!"
"Instruct the Shangyi Bureau to arrange a place for the girl to live according to...the princess's rules!"
The prince's legitimate daughter was granted the title of princess, which was a great courtesy to Yang Jingting. After all, her father was just an idle earl.
"yes!"
However, all this made Zhu Yunsheng more and more dissatisfied. In the past, he was his mother's sweetheart, but now he was ignored.
"Mom...I'm hungry!"
Turning around, Yang Qingyin looked dissatisfied: "You kid, you just ate the fruit, why are you hungry again?"
"You know how to eat all day long, what will you look like when you grow up? Look at your sister Ting, then look at yourself!"
These words made Zhu Yunsheng feel even more aggrieved, saying that his mother had also changed her mind.
As if realizing that her words were too harsh, Yang Qingyin waved to her daughter, who approached and took her into her arms.
"You must learn more rules in the future, otherwise you will make people laugh... Do you understand!"
"I got it!" Zhu Yunsheng was immediately coaxed, hugging Yang Qingyin and acting coquettishly.
Seeing this scene, Yang Jingting was heartbroken. After traveling thousands of miles to this strange place, she also wanted to cry in her mother's arms.
At this time, the queen said: "Jingting, from now on you will study with Sheng'er. You are the elder sister...you must show the bearing of an eldest sister. If she makes any mistakes, just teach her a lesson!"
Seeing Zhu Yunsheng's unhappy expression, Yang Jingting carefully replied: "My niece will serve the princess with all her heart!"
Yang Qingyin could understand her niece's caution, so she changed the subject and asked about other things, and got to know more about Yang Jingting.
The more she talked, the more satisfied Yang Qingyin became, and the softer her eyes became when she looked at Yang Jingting.
"You stay with Sheng'er in the palace as if you were at home. From now on, you don't have to be too restrained when you are studying and joking..."
At this moment, Concubine Jia had already said goodbye and left. Apart from the serving maids, Yang Qingyin was the only three people left in the room.
As they were talking, Zhu Jinghong had arrived outside Kunning's door and immediately saw Yinglian waiting at the door.
"Master Thirteen..."
Yinglian ran down the steps. At this moment, she was dressed like an ordinary palace maid, but she was more calm than before.
She was in Kunning Palace these days, and because of Zhu Jinghong's relationship, the queen took good care of her.
"Yinglian, are you waiting for me?"
"That's exactly what I ordered!"
Zhu Jinghong then asked: "Why did you suddenly call me here?"
Then he asked again: "Is my father in there?"
Yinglian smiled and said: "Don't worry, Thirteenth Master, the Lord is not here, but there is another distinguished guest coming!"
"Distinguished guest? What distinguished guest? Are there any guests more expensive than the Zhu family?" Zhu Jinghong was extremely confused.
"A girl is here, she seems to be...the young lady from Uncle Yongtai's family!"
Of course Zhu Jinghong knew who Yong Taibo was. After all, he was the brother of the current queen and a serious uncle of the country.
"His lady is here? What are you doing here? Does she have anything to do with me?"
"This... this slave doesn't know!" Yinglian said innocently.
Zhu Jinghong smiled and then asked: "I'm going to be sweating again this afternoon. You have to come over tonight. I can't take a shower without you!"
Although Yinglian stayed in Kunning Palace, Zhu Jinghong kept looking for her, but Yang Qingyin turned a blind eye to this.
With her face flushed, Yinglian nodded slightly.
