The huge team did not go to the City Lord's Mansion halfway up the mountain, but went directly to the Beiye Prince's Mansion located in the south of the city.
King Tuoba Lie of Beiye did not go to greet the crown prince outside the city gate, so the crown prince came to visit him at his home.
Moreover, the prince got off the car and walked when he was still three miles away from the palace, and asked his entourage to wait where they were.
He only brought a bookboy and a maid, chatting softly along the way, and also carefully observed the customs along the way.
After Tuoba Lie heard the news, he went out to welcome him and ordered everyone in the palace to go out to greet him.
Look, does this sound like the sophistication of human nature that Jianghu people often say?
How much face you give me, I will give you some face.
There seems to be nothing that can be faulted about His Royal Highness, whether it is his figure, appearance, clothing, demeanor, or behavior.
He was still far away. When he saw Tuoba Lie, he immediately quickened his pace. He was also still far away, so he lowered his arms almost to the ground.
By meeting each other with the courtesy of a junior, rather than with the courtesy of a court, the prince's attitude will be clear at a glance.
The crown prince’s name is Xie Yelan.
The night is coming to an end. This is his name. His word is Qiming, which means Qiming in the realm of Qiming.
He likes the word Qiming so much, he likes it to his core.
Many people in Geling City knew that this prince and his father, the county prince, were incompatible with each other. They did not look like a family at all, let alone father and son.
Prince Ye is happy with all his looks and looks, but he doesn't like to study, practice martial arts, and do serious things. He still plays songs every night and doesn't go home. It seems that there is no girl from the brothel in his family who is worthy of his thoughts.
Therefore, the prince has been self-reliant since he was a child.
He was so self-improving that he even changed his name.
Some people say that the prince has known that his father is unreliable since he was four years old. He gets up on time every day, washes himself, and goes to the study early to wait for his husband to come.
He started practicing martial arts at the age of six, and attained the six-manged realm of enlightenment at the age of seven. When he was nine years old, he met the master of Shangyang Palace by chance in the paddock outside Geling. The master was full of praises after seeing him.
He was also the penultimate disciple accepted by the real master, and had to be favored for several years.
When he was seventeen years old, he anonymously participated in the martial arts test, entered the top three, and ranked second.
At the age of twenty-one, he was already a guest teacher at Buyong Academy in Geling City. He had little qualifications, but his classes were packed every time. Even many well-known scholars in Geling City came to listen to his wonderful lectures.
At the age of twenty-three, he is the priest of Shangyang Palace, assisting the master in handling the daily affairs of Shangyang Palace in Geling.
At the age of twenty-four, he arrived in Yunzhou and became the lord of one of the five major cities in Dayu.
Everyone in Geling City knows that the Crown Prince is as gentle and elegant as jade, and they also know that the Crown Prince is decisive and brave.
At this time, Xie Yelan arrived in Yunzhou and seemed a little unfriendly to the general who had guarded Northern Xinjiang for more than ten years.
But the prince's friendliness was beyond everyone's expectations.
When he saw Tuoba Lie, he bowed to him as a junior, and when talking to Tuoba Lie, he did not walk side by side, but lagged slightly half a step behind.
He always answered every question and told everything he knew. Even King Kitano, who was originally disliked, fell in love with him after just half an hour.
Xie Yelan stayed at Prince Beiye's Mansion for more than an hour, had dinner with Prince Beiye, and then left and went out.
He still didn't go to the city lord's mansion or the government office, but went to Tianshui Cliff.
There is a wonderful feature in the front yard of Tianshui Cliff. An observation tower is built according to the protrusions of the rocks.
People who have seen this place have probably also seen the observation tower of the City Lord's Mansion, so they understand that it was the City Lord's Mansion who learned from Tianshui Ya, and not very well.
Priest Priest Ai Youyou pointed at the bottom of the city: "I've been looking here for ten years, but I haven't seen the whole city."
Xie Yelan said: "Senior brother, I'll look from a high place. I'll look from a low place. I'll see both high and low, so I can see clearly."
Ai Youyou looked at the Crown Prince, who was of the same generation as her, but had a prominent status and a distinguished bloodline.
He said, "How can you be in a low place? I can go there, but you can't."
Xie Yelan smiled.
He replied: "Senior brother, do you think that because you have royal blood, you should be superior?"
Ai Youyou said: "This is the truth that should not be changed."
Xie Yelan walked to Ai Youyou, but he did not hold the railing and overlook Yunzhou City like Ai Youyou did.
He said: "Many, many years ago, my ancestors and Emperor Taizu were brothers, and they conquered this great jade mountain together."
"Many, many years later, my grandfather's generation didn't even have a title, and they secretly farmed in Qiao'an County under the rule of Geling City."
"Thirty-three years ago."
He looked at Ai Youyou: "Suddenly things changed. Emperor Yu Long contracted a severe illness, returned to Daxing, and had no children. The inheritance of the throne was suddenly in chaos."
Ai Youyou nodded, of course he knew these things.
Xie Yelan continued: "Senior brother said that people from the royal family should be aloof, but my grandfather who secretly farmed in Qiao'an County was frightened to death when a group of adults from the court put on royal robes. It's true. "
He asked: "Brother, do you know why my grandfather farmed secretly?"
Ai Youyou replied: "I know."
Because how can people from the royal family farm? Farming is a desecration of royal status, but one can starve to death.
Xie Yelan continued: "My grandfather inherited the throne, but he didn't even read a lot of books, couldn't read a bunch of Chinese characters, and all government affairs were in the hands of powerful ministers."
"He died of illness after sitting on the throne for thirteen years. His eldest son, my uncle, is now your majesty."
Xie Yelan said: "My father is your Majesty's younger brother, and he was granted the title of County King..."
He stopped when he said this, because there were some words that he couldn't explain clearly even if Ai Youyou was his senior brother.
Emperor Jade's biological brother doesn't even have the status of a prince. What does this mean?
Xie Yelan said: "In a hundred years, my descendants will be secretly farming. So, senior brother, I don't dare to be superior. I have to accumulate some blessings for my descendants."
Ai Youyou couldn't help but sigh softly when she heard this.
Xie Yelan smiled and said: "I came to Yunzhou because I asked Your Majesty. I begged three times before I got Your Majesty's permission. This is the first time I have done something shamelessly. Just because of my status as the city lord, my future children , maybe life will be easier."
Royal status will not bring much glory and wealth to his descendants, and even if it does, it will only last two or three generations.
It would be great to be a city lord.
Xie Yelan said: "Doing more things for the people is a way to accumulate blessings. Being a local official can also accumulate wealth."
His words were actually so straightforward.
Ai Youyou sighed again.
It's not necessarily a good thing that His Highness the Crown Prince has just arrived and is confiding in him like this.
Even ordinary people know what the word "courteous reciprocity" means. If someone confides in you when you first arrive, but you are secretive and false, then it is naturally your fault.
"Senior brother."
Xie Yelan took two steps back, clasped his fists and leaned over: "I don't live in the city lord's mansion. I can just go to the city and find a courtyard to live in. But I'm not familiar with Yunzhou yet, so I'll help my senior brother with this."
Ai Youyou had no choice but to say, "You should think twice about this matter. After all, you represent the dignity of the royal family. But if you insist, I will help you."
Xie Yelan said with a smile: "Thank you very much, senior brother. I went to see King Beiye before I came here. The only place I went to was the south of the city, so I chose the south of the city."
South of the city, a deserted place.
Ai Youyou nodded: "I listen to you."
Xie Yelan left immediately. This time he went to Yunzhou Fuyamen. It was already late at night.
From the time he arrived in Yunzhou, he never rested for a moment.
Most of the people in the government office were asleep. They learned that the new city lord had gone to Tianshui Cliff. They expected that the city lord would stay there tonight, so they relaxed a little.
Unexpectedly, it was already past midnight, and the city lord actually arrived at the Yamen, and a group of sleepy-eyed people came out nervously to greet him.
But when they ran outside the door, they saw no one, because the city lord went directly to the government prison.
The lights in the prison were dim and damp, and the unpleasant smell made the book boys and maids who came with them frown.
The two of them subconsciously wanted to cover their mouths and noses with handkerchiefs, but the prince didn't have it, so they didn't dare.
Stepping down the steps that were covered with moss, the dark and musty smell of the prison hit my nostrils.
"Where is Bu Gu's heart?"
the prince asked.
The frightened prison boss replied nervously, his voice trembling.
"In the innermost room, I have the humble duty of leading the way for the prince."
When we walked to the end, the innermost cell looked the smallest, it was square and only five feet tall.
Therefore, people in this cell cannot lie down even if they want to sleep, they can only curl up.
Bu Guxin looks really dirty and exudes a foul smell. After all, he eats, drinks, and poops within these five feet.
This time, even the prince couldn't help but frown.
"Bu Guxin."
The prince called out.
Bu Guxin raised her hand and pulled her hair, revealing her cloudy eyes. There was no trace of the former glory on her face.
"His Royal Highness?"
Bu Gu was startled. He hadn't seen him for ten years. When they were separated, the prince had seen him off. Now that boy had grown up, and the tree was in the wind.
"The sinful minister Bu Guxin comes to see His Highness the Crown Prince."
Bu Guxin knelt down, kowtowed, and kept kowtowing.
The prince asked: "Do you have anything to say?"
Bu Guxin kowtowed and replied: "The guilty minister is actually unjust. The guilty minister wholeheartedly serves His Majesty. The guilty minister..."
The prince interrupted him: "I'm not asking you this."
Bu Gu was stunned.
After a long time, Bu Gu understood. His stiff body bent down again and kowtowed again.
"Sinful minister, I want to seek dignity."
The prince nodded: "That's right."
He said: "More than ten years ago, when you took office and left Beijing, I ran to see you off. Everyone said that I was crazy. The heir apparent of a prince's family actually took the initiative to come to see off a feudal official. It was because he was posted there, so he didn't have any dignity at all. No need, after all, before that, I didn’t know you and you didn’t know me.”
"But you saluted me in front of everyone and gave a teenager some dignity. All I can give you in return is dignity."
The prince ordered: "Give him a bath, change his clothes, and move him to a clean room. You can choose any room in the government office."
"Find him an innocent girl and send him away early tomorrow morning... Just pretend that no one knows about this."
"yes!"
His men responded immediately.
Bu Guxin knelt there, her eyes that seemed to have been dry became moist again.
"Sinful minister, thank you for your kindness."
The prince turned and left without saying another word or looking at Bu Guxin.
After walking a few steps, he asked, "Where is Jin Sheng going?"
The cell leader quickly pointed to the other side: "Over there, in the largest and most spacious cell, it's clean..."
The prince nodded.
The place where Jin Sheng lived was indeed clean and dry. It seemed like a completely different world from this damp dungeon.
He also had a quilt, a pillow, and a desk. There were leftover meals on the desk, two dishes and one soup.
When the prince walked to the old door, Jin Shengchang turned around when he heard the sound and was startled.
He stood up quickly, but before he could salute, the prince had already clasped his fists and leaned over.
"Students meet their mentors."
