The Prince's East Palace is actually a large study room, hidden in a deep valley in the back garden of the Head of State. It is very quiet on weekdays and is a good place to study.
The Chinese do not have the name Dong Palace, and Xiao Letian is not the emperor, and he does not recognize his son as the prince. However, the power of traditional habits is too strong. It is up to you, the Xiao family, to admit it or not. Anyway, officials at all levels and the people recognize it. .
The law doesn't specify this kind of title, but people just like to call it that, and you can't stop them!
The place where Fu Yin'er lived and studied became the so-called East Palace, and the officials at all levels who served here became the prince's subordinate officials in the hearts of the people!
Xiao Letian disappeared mysteriously, and the Chinese ethnic group was leaderless. At the critical moment, a temporary military control cabinet could only be established to deal with the upcoming conflict. In all this, the prince could only be the leader. No matter how old he was, his identity could convince many forces.
At such a critical moment, the most important thing is that the various factions can coordinate and cooperate with each other, not the age of the leader!
Wang Junlan's face was gloomy. He didn't know what kind of medicine Ito was selling in the gourd. Could the sudden concern be because the news had leaked?
Wang Junlan didn't just come here to say hello to Fu Yin'er today. There was a confidential telegram hidden in the lining of his suit, which was sent by Cai Bixia of the capital, which activated his unpopular secret line.
Zai Chun has been transferred to Chengde Summer Resort, but his condition has become more and more serious. At this moment, except asking the prince for help and getting some penicillin, no one has any other options!
However, this news cannot be sent through normal channels. There are too many people within the Chinese clan who hate Zai Chun. How many people are paying attention to the news from the capital. Once those people focus on asking for medicine, it will be completely It’s ruined!
At this moment, everything could no longer be concealed. The empress dowagers of the two palaces of the Qing Dynasty and Fu Qing, including Cai Bixia and others, knew that the disease Zai Chun suffered from was Hualiu, which is what Europeans call beautiful poison. !
This is a life-threatening disease, a terminal illness in this era!
Only penicillin can treat it, so we can only urgently seek medical treatment from Huang Xie for this miraculous medicine called penicillin!
With Xiao Letian away, everyone can only ask the prince for help, but can Fu Yin'er be seen by anyone who wants to see him now? As soon as Wang Junlan arrived at the study room in the East Palace, he missed everything.
"Wang Junlan... The prince is not here. If you have anything to say, please tell me!"
Wang Junlan looked at Mrs. Tiger on the seat and sweat broke out on his back. Can he give her this telegram? Huniu and the Manchus have a deep hatred. They would like to dig up their ancestral graves, but will they save Zaichun?
Wang Junlan pretended to be calm and bowed to the second lady, "Have you met Madam! Madam is always in good health? Many of my subordinates have not paid their respects to Madam. Please don't blame Madam!"
"Haha... No wonder, no blame... You are responsible for the secret files of the head of state, which are all military and national secrets. It is a heavy responsibility! You have lost weight, but you haven't had a good rest?"
"Master Long sent a batch of high-quality wild ginseng from the Far East last month...here you come...I will reward Mr. Wang with a century-old plant, the one with the most complete roots..."
"I don't dare... I don't dare... My subordinate is still young and cannot be treated as such a great tonic. I'd better leave my wife to make soup!" Wang Junlan waved his hands in panic.
"I don't know where the prince has gone! My subordinates want to say hello and then go to work..."
"Ah? The prince... I went to inspect the arsenal with Sima Yun and the others. I don't know whether it is the army, navy or air force. Don't worry, I will send someone to ask!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Junlan hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't bother me. Since I don't have a chance to see the prince today, it's good to pay my respects to the madam... I have nothing else to do, so I resigned!"
Wang Junlan wants to leave? Huniu would not let him go, but said coldly, "If you want to leave... you have to take away the ginseng! I offer gifts, is it possible that Mr. Wang refuses to take them?"
This breath was full of ice particles from the twelfth lunar month of winter. Wang Junlan was so frightened that his lower back went cold and he dared not speak!
"Master Wang...sit down!"
Wang Junlan sat carefully on the edge of the rosewood chair, feeling as uncomfortable as if he had hemorrhoids. Time passed by like this, and you could hear a pin drop in the study.
The dull pressure made Wang Junlan breathless. It took more than ten minutes before he heard the footsteps of the maid. A beautifully carved wooden box was brought out, walked to Wang Junlan and opened it.
The inside is lined with red velvet cloth, and an old wild ginseng with all roots and hairs lies quietly on it. This appearance is so complete, the roots at the end are as thin as hair, and one ginseng is enough. More than half a meter high!
This is really a treasure. If you put it on the market, it will be priceless, and you can’t even buy it with money!
"This... this is too expensive, and I can't bear it. I beg you, madam, to leave the reward for other adults who have worked hard and made great contributions!"
"Haha...hey...is this gift expensive? Or am I, the gift-giver, not qualified enough? Hmm..."
Huniu said angrily, and Wang Junlan quickly stood up in fright, "Madam, I'm so embarrassed... How dare I disrespect my lady? It's just that I'm young and have a low official position, so I don't deserve such a generous gift..."
"Haha! You still say you don't dare? Now you have stepped on my nose and face! You are not disrespectful to me, you are disrespectful!" Huniu suddenly got angry and her voice rose an octave. Wang Junlan was so scared that he stood up quickly I almost knocked over the ginseng box.
"lady……"
"Shut up! You are calling every lady a kiss! Why are you greeting the prince? We Chinese people don't have those bad habits of the Qing Dynasty. You are an official and not a nephew of our Xiao family. What greetings do you want? What are you asking?" "
"You, Wang Junlan, are in charge of secret files! You are subject to double scrutiny by the intelligence bureau and the head of state. How can you not understand the trajectory? Are you the kind of wanton person?"
"If there is no confidential matter, would you come to see the prince? What are you trying to do by hiding your head and tail? What evil are you holding back? Are you trying to trick Fu Yin'er?"
"No... no no no... Madam wrongly blamed this subordinate, and I absolutely don't dare! It's just... I just want to say hello... really... nothing else!" Wang Junlan stuttered when he spoke, but this made Hu even more... Niu saw the flaw!
"Haha...Wang Junlan, have you not understood the current situation? You are also a high-level intelligence officer, and your secret level is high enough, so the establishment of the temporary military control cabinet was not hidden from you!"
"You don't understand the rules here? The interim military control cabinet is headed by the prince, but when the prince is young, all matters must be resolved through consultation and voting by the auxiliaries!"
"The eldest lady and I, plus King Yi, and the Four Heavenly Kings, including the Far East Dragon Lord and the old shopkeeper... We, the auxiliary political group, must vote together for anything, so that Fu Yin'er can use the treasure!"
"Now you want to skip our group and complain to the prince alone? What do you want to say? What secret do you have! Take out the bezoar dog treasure in your belly and let the Yi family see..."
Um? Why did the Ai family come out? As soon as this word came out, the study room suddenly became cold. Even the maids around were at a loss, and Hu Niu's face turned slightly red.
My heart said, damn it, why did this word pop out of my mouth?
The embarrassment only lasted for a moment, and then Hu Niu said loudly, "I'll give you one last chance... Tell me! Why do you want to skip us and meet the prince alone?"
Note: Some book friends have questioned Ito's identity, saying that he should not be Fuyin'er's teacher. How can a Japanese be the teacher of our Chinese prince?
You can't think like this. The education system for princes in ancient times was very strict, and it was different from ordinary children going to school!
What is the East Palace? The East Palace is a small court next to the imperial court. As long as the prince is confirmed, everything must be fully prepared for the prince's future enthronement.
There cannot be only one teacher, nor can there be only one or two officials, that is a group of people!
Think about Li Shimin's Kaiya Jianfu before the Xuanwu Gate Incident. The configuration inside was actually a small civil and military court!
Where will the prince rule in the future? How many forces need to be balanced? These all need to be represented!
Fusang is already a semi-colony of the Chinese people. It will become a complete colony and even annex the land in the future. It is a huge country and a huge force.
In order to facilitate the rule and appease the people of the ruled area, a large number of talents from this place must be used!
If Fu Yin'er is not surrounded by Fusang officials, it will make the entire Fusang country uneasy and give rise to the feeling that the future prince has abandoned him.
And in such a large area, if you don't let the political elites enter the court and enter the inner circle, it means that you don't accept their surrender!
Fusang, the Korean Peninsula, the Far East, Luzon, Annan, Borneo... even after annexing the Manchus in the future, some political territory will be left for the Manchus!
These forces must have talented people gathered around Fu Yin'er. This is the principle of long-term peace and stability!
As for how bad Ito is? That's what the plot requires. If there were no bad guys, would anyone still read the book?
