I want to be a grandson

Chapter 444 One Brother, Two Scholars

It's a hot day in July.

Although the night was already dark, the weather was still very hot.

During the day, the scorching sun scorched the earth. Standing naked under the sun would feel hot. The whole palace was also baked, and it was hot everywhere.

Although there were eunuchs fanning at the side, beads of sweat still appeared on Zhu Yunxi's head.

However, he didn't appear very irritable. If he was irritable, the eunuchs would be terrified and scared to death.

Wang Zhong brought a bowl of iced porridge and said, "This is iced porridge, please use some."

After the porridge is frozen, there is no heat at all, and it is really rare and delicious when you eat it cold in your mouth.

Lotus seeds, longan, red beans and other things are very soft, and after being chilled, they are refreshing when they enter the stomach.

After eating a bowl of ice porridge, the whole body feels comfortable, and the heat is also reduced by three points.

Wang Zhong asked from the side: "Your Highness, it's too hot today, let them make some ice with some saltpeter, so as to reduce the heat."

The use of saltpeter to make ice has already appeared in the Tang Dynasty.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, people mined saltpeter during the production of gunpowder, and found that saltpeter dissolved in water would absorb a lot of heat, cooling the water to freeze. Since then, there has been a method of making ice in summer.

If you want to eat ice, put water in a jar, take a larger container, put water in the container, then put the jar in the container, and keep adding saltpeter to the container, as a result, the water in the jar freezes out of ice.

In this way, the ice in the jar is ready to eat.

That's how the ice porridge he ate came from.

Zhu Yunxi said: "It's fine, let someone send some to the emperor's grandfather, the harem, and the ministers also... And Wei Guogong's family, he is a general, he is often restless, it will definitely be hotter..."

"Yes, I understand, Your Highness, please rest assured."

Knowing what he meant, Wang Zhong responded with a smile.

"There is also this ice porridge, which is very delicious, please give some as well."

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, the slaves will definitely be delivered, and will never let Duke Wei get too hot..."

Zhu Yunxi glared at him, but ignored him.

After a while, the eunuch moved some ice and put it in the room. The ice gave off a cold air, and after a while, the temperature in the room dropped.

Zhu Yunxi lay on the rocking chair and fell asleep unknowingly.

When he seemed to be asleep and woke up, he felt that someone was beating his legs, because it was more comfortable, so Zhu Yunxi didn't open his eyes.

After a while, Zhu Yunxi adjusted his posture, smelled a fragrance in his nose, and saw Zhao Mingzhu squatting on the ground, beating his legs.

Then he asked: "It's already dark, why don't you go to sleep?"

Zhao Mingzhu showed a mischievous smile and said: "The maidservant is hot there, and I can't sleep well. Thinking that there is ice in your Highness, it must be very cool, so..."

"Okay, you actually came here to cool off, how courageous you are!"

Zhao Mingzhu made a gesture of surrender, and said with aggrieved eyes: "Your Highness, please forgive me, I can't sleep because it's so hot, and this room is so big, it doesn't matter if there are many servants alone."

"Hmph! You're here to cool off and you still talk so high-soundingly. You really don't know how to repent. Let's see how I deal with you!"

"Oh, Your Highness, don't..."

I have to say that when people are hot and sweaty, not only will they feel irritable, but they will also be uninteresting in some places.

But when you are refreshed and in a good mood, it will be quite different.

Zhu Yunxi could smell it from the very beginning, this little girl had already bathed when she came here, her body exuded a light fragrance,
It can be concluded that there must be mint in it, which makes people feel cool and very comfortable.

As expected of a royal palace, the research on this aspect is too careful!

What kind of environment, what kind of weather, and what kind of fragrance should be paired with it will stimulate people's appetite and move their index fingers, all of which are carefully studied!

And in a cool and comfortable environment, doing some exercise can not only relax the muscles and blood, promote health, but also make people feel more comfortable...

Looking at the charming beauty in his arms, Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "Don't worry now?"

Zhao Mingzhu blushed, pretending not to understand, and said, "What are you talking about, Your Highness? Please forgive me for being dull, for not understanding Your Highness's words."

Zhu Yunxi said: "You see that the palace is going to choose a concubine for me, and you are worried. Why, you still don't admit it?"

Zhao Mingzhu quickly denied it and said: "Your Highness, I don't dare to think about it, so I don't have anything to worry about. It's not like what Your Highness thinks..."

Zhu Yunxi smiled, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, Mingzhu, if you know that you are from the East Palace, you can stay in the East Palace with peace of mind, don't think so much, understand."

Zhao Mingzhu's eyes turned red, and she wanted to cry. She hugged Zhu Yunxi tightly and said, "Your Highness, this servant only wants to stay in the East Palace, and only wants to be by His Highness's side. If His Highness has this intention, this servant is willing to die!"

"Silly girl……"

The reason why Zhao Mingzhu said that was because the court ladies who were favored but had nothing to do would be arranged to go to other places before the wedding.

Because her mission has been fulfilled, she will not be used in the future.

Besides, if the housewife enters, she is also in the way.

Sometimes it will be canonized, but the chances are not high.

Of course, whether to go or stay depends on the will of the Lord.

Zhu Yunxi knew that she was about to marry the grandson concubine, and Zhao Mingzhu knew that there was no place in her heart. After getting along for such a long time, the two of them also had feelings for each other. How could she be willing to leave and live alone forever.

Zhu Yunxi said: "After the Concubine Grandson enters the East Palace, some will be canonized, and you will be there at that time."

Zhao Mingzhu said in surprise: "Thank you, Your Highness! The slaves don't need any grades, as long as they can follow His Highness, the slaves will be satisfied!"

"How can it be done without grades, can you feel at ease now?"

"Your servant is at ease, thank you Your Highness..."

"Then how do you thank me?"

"Your Highness..."

……

Zhu Yunxi didn't have a momentary fever, allowing her any rank of concubine, and now the grandson concubine hasn't married yet, so it's too early to say.

Besides, there is a difference between superiority and inferiority, so it is not appropriate to give him too much hope.

Moreover, when arranging the order of concubines, at the very least, the concubine must be notified, so as to show respect.

Only when people hope, will they become motivated, strive for, and climb upwards.

But for the harem, order, harmony and tranquility are the most important!
The eunuch in the palace brought ice cubes to Wei Guogong's mansion.

When Xu Huizu learned that the ice was a gift from the grandson of the East Palace, he felt a little puzzled.

Then the eunuch sent another can of iced eight-treasure porridge, which made Xu Huizu even more troubled.

After thanking him, Xu Huizu didn't enjoy it, but ordered someone to deliver the ice cubes and porridge to Xu Miaojin's room.

When Xu Miaojin saw these things and knew where they came from, she blushed from face to neck.

When he was choosing a concubine, he did this...

How daring...

Are you not afraid of suspicion?
However, it's really cool...

"Miss, you see that His Highness is also interested in you, let me just say, he will never forget this matter no matter what!"

"Just talk too much!"

"I'm just telling the truth, hey, Miss, are you blushing? Why are you blushing? Is it because ice doesn't make everyone drunk?"

"If you don't have knowledge and skills, that's called wine not intoxicating... People are intoxicated..." Suddenly realizing that this sentence seemed wrong, he quickly changed the subject and asked, "Why is there so much ice in my room, and it is impossible for the palace to reward you?" That much?"

Xiaoqing said with a smile: "Of course there won't be so many rewards. After the master received these ice cubes, he sent them all to the lady's room, and the ice porridge, too!"

"How can this be done? What should I do if I send it all over to my elder brother's room? Let someone send some over."

Xiaoqing stopped her and said: "Miss, don't waste your time. Since the master sent it here, he definitely doesn't want it. Hehehe, miss, can you give me a taste of your can of ice porridge? You can't finish it." ..."

"No! Who said I can't finish it! It's not enough!" Xu Miaojin hugged the ice porridge and hid sideways.

Xiaoqing said aggrievedly: "Miss, you said you were full after dinner, why isn't there enough food now?"

The lie was exposed, and Xu Miaojin's face was a little embarrassed, "I, I was hot, so I couldn't eat it, and now I can eat it again!"

"..."

If a lover gives you a gift, how can you be willing to share it with others!
Jiangxi, Ji'an Prefecture Government Office.

"Who are you, don't tell me, line up and come one by one!"

People are still queuing up to register today. Although they know that the chance of being selected is not high, they still have to try.

But there was a man in his thirties, dressed as a scribe, and pulled a 27-year-old man to the side hall where he was registering, regardless of the queue and the stop of the petty official.

"Prefect Chen, what's going on? Who is so presumptuous!" the household official asked displeased.

The prefect of Ji'an knew this person, so he hurried forward and said, "Bachelor Xie, why are you here? You are really a rare visitor, a rare visitor."

He took the other party's hand and said enthusiastically: "Come on, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Wang Mingwang from the Jiangxi Qingli Department of the Imperial Household Department. He is in charge of the selection of the best girls in our Ji'an Mansion..."

He also introduced to Lord Wang: "Master Wang, this is the famous Xie Jin, Xie Hanlin! Xie Bachelor!..."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Ming understood who the other party was!

What Chen Zhifu said is correct, this person is indeed famous, even in Daming!
Xie Jin!

"It turned out to be Xie Hanlin. I have admired him for a long time. I am so lucky to meet you today..."

In the 20th year of Hongwu, Xie Jin participated in the Jiangxi Provincial Examination and ranked first in Xie Yuan.

In the 21st year of Hongwu, Xie Jinzhong Wuchen Division was No. 10 in the top three Jinshi, and he, his brother Xie Lun, and brother-in-law Huang Jinhua were both ranked in the Jinshi in the court examination.

One brother, two Jinshi!

This shows the origin of their family's family education, otherwise how could two Jinshi be cultivated in one family.

Moreover, his brother-in-law is also a Jinshi, so he can imagine their family's power and influence among literati!
