Chapter 356 is really a lore
The prince has been bouncing around for an unprecedented time.
It may be because Xiao Tai was not in the capital, and he ignored him before leaving, which gave him a great sense of crisis. Anyway, these days, he has been wooing people everywhere in a serious manner.
First the old man, and then his father-in-law.
His father-in-law's surname is Li, and his name is Li Zhizhi. He is not a big official, just a servant of the household department, but he also has the title of Marquis.
He is a well-learned man with a noble reputation and integrity, and the girls he raises are also educated and courteous.
When they got married, the crown prince was still young, and Emperor Ming Pei hadn't given up yet. He really wanted to find a good Yue's family for him, and find a good wife to take him down.
But helplessly, the crown prince is a weirdo. He is not keen on the affairs of men and women, and he looks down on women extremely. He thinks that the only role of women is that kind of thing. When he enters the door to do business, he puts on his pants and leaves. He is lazy and talks too much .
The daughter of the Hou Mansion, who was raised by thousands of pampers and loved by thousands of people, couldn't think of this, she couldn't help crying and told him, why does His Highness treat me like a fan actor, just for fun... But the prince said: "Not yet They are all the same, so is it possible that you are still superficial?"
In a word, the princess returned to her natal home in tears.
Then Mr. Li desperately came to sue the imperial court.
Emperor Ming Pei took great pains to mediate, but the prince did not dare to resist, but since then, he has not entered the princess's room.
He finds it troublesome.
If you want to do something, you can just hire a court lady, they are all the same, why bother to listen to these people.
For this reason, the crown prince has not even had a side concubine for so many years. After all, Emperor Ming Pei was also afraid of chilling his courtiers. On the contrary, Tongfang took seven or eight of them and raised four children.
So, for his virtue, it's no wonder that Li Zhizhi can give him a good face.
Anyway, except for the face of the superior, there is nothing else, but the prince's temper, if you force him, he will be cowardly, so he didn't make a fuss.
At noon, the prince was eating, and a young **** next to him was serving him dishes.
The little **** has a very winking look, every time he thinks about what to hold, he will give it to him, the prince is a little satisfied, and condescendingly said: "What's your name?"
The little **** put down his chopsticks and saluted courteously: "Return to Your Highness, this servant is called Ma Yi."
The prince laughed: "Ant? What's your name?"
Ma Yi immediately followed him and said, "Because the slave was slender and thin when he entered the palace, the father-in-law in charge of the slave gave him such a name."
The crown prince nodded with a smile, "Gu guess it is! I haven't seen you before?"
"Return to Your Highness," Ma Yi said, "The slave is a newcomer. Several people from Your Highness's Palace have gone to the Third Prince's Palace. There is a shortage of manpower, so the servant rushed over here."
The prince's face darkened.
Ma Yi was "shocked" by a slip of the tongue, and hurriedly knelt down and said, "Your Highness, spare your life! Your Highness, spare your life! This slave can't speak!"
The crown prince fidgeted with his chopsticks and asked him to continue serving the dishes. Ma Yi hurriedly got up and continued serving the dishes.
The prince said: "I'm still the prince! A bunch of bastards! Dogs look down on people!"
The prince couldn't help squinting at him, and said after a while: "Then why did you rush to come?"
Ma Yidao: "Slave..." He peeked at him, and the prince said: "Just say it! I forgive you for your innocence!"
"Yes, yes," Ma Yi said, "I think His Highness is the best! Your Highness is the crown prince! The eldest son is born! And no one in the whole palace knows that His Highness treats your slaves very well. Eunuch Hu is serving in His Highness's room." In half a year, the whole person has gained weight twice, His Highness is kind, and treats the servants well, and the servants will not be angry if they make mistakes..."
He talks a lot.
The prince couldn't help but nod at what he said, feeling that he was really not bad.
Ma Yidao: "You have to be a generous person like His Highness to be worthy of the title of Prince Chu. This slave has been puzzled. What is wrong with liking to eat? Who doesn't like to eat? People grow tongues just to eat." !"
The crown prince suddenly felt a sense of bosom friend: "You are right! Isn't Gu just a lover of food, Gu has never done anything bad!"
Empress Xiao left early, the prince was used to being raised, and besides the emperor, he was the oldest since he was a child, and he didn't have taboo in his mind, so Ma Yi said some outrageous words, but they were very pleasant to his ears.
After coming down in the afternoon, Ma Yi suddenly became the number one celebrity in front of the prince, and even talked to him alone after dinner.
Then Ma Yi began to advise the prince: "Actually, Your Highness, don't worry. Now that the second prince has left the palace to become a marquis, and there is no day to return to the palace, the only threat to your highness is the third prince. The fifth prince below is only in his teens. What are you doing. So Your Highness, as long as you take care of the third prince, you can sit back and relax."
The crown prince snorted: "Of course this orphan knows! But isn't the third child able to recite two sour poems, which pleases the father! And his mother is an old woman, and the father still goes by from time to time, and he doesn't know what to draw." !"
Ma Yi said with a smile: "Your Highness, let the slaves see that the third prince pretended to like studying, that was his worst mistake! Haven't you heard of it, Your Highness? There are rules for success and failure of scholars, whether you are a king or a prince. His Royal Highness is the elder brother, so no matter what His Highness does, the Third Prince cannot resist! But if he says something wrong, it is disrespectful to the King!"
Ma Yi didn't bother much, so he talked to the prince.
The prince then wobbled, went to the prince's office, opened his mouth and said: "Old man, I often reflect on myself recently, and feel that I don't have enough knowledge. I heard that the Confucian knowledge I taught you is very good, why don't I give it to Gu! "
The third prince's face turned green.
You must know that the princes have not opened their houses yet, and it is inconvenient to live in the prince's residence. This great Confucian is a gentleman in name, but he is actually his aide!
Who would dare to borrow something like a staff member?
The third prince said anxiously: "I'm afraid it's not right, Your Highness wants to study, why don't you ask Father?"
Prince said: "If I don't go alone, I will want you."
The third prince said: "Your Highness is joking, these gentlemen are all pointed out by the father to my younger brother, how can they be sold at will."
"It's not for sale," said the crown prince, "it's for requisition! Why, they aren't ministers? They don't need to listen to Gu's words?"
To be honest, a scoundrel like the crown prince is really deadly against a scholar.
The prince’s temperament is bullying and fearful, you are strong and I am cowardly, but as long as you don’t do anything, let you drop your book bag with politeness, or say allusions and sarcasm...he doesn’t care at all!
So, he decided... Needless to say, I want you and those people.
Meet the father? Do not go do not go.
What teacher is not teacher, the wind is too strong to hear clearly!
But he is the prince, so he naturally has a status advantage. If he really plays a scoundrel, the third prince has nothing to do.
Finally, those few people were "invited" into the East Palace.
