246 Concubine Li

Big things turn into small things, small things turn into small things, this is the way many people are used to dealing with things.

It is also the doctrine of the mean that the Chinese nation has always pursued.

After Jiajing's statement, the Jinshan Night Festival incident, which was once quarreled, was finally calmed down under Zhu Xizhong's thunderous means. After all, the news in ancient times was blocked, and the people did not see any real evidence. They all heard about it.

It’s okay to criticize a few words when you’re bored. When you see gossiping, if you’re suing, especially those cases of being arrested by the Jinyiwei for talking nonsense, you’re all silent.

The rumors subsided, and the Jinyiwei secretly cleared King Jing's power. King Jing's last strongholds in the capital were plucked up, and the capital quickly returned to peace. Yu Jin also took on the role of a little book boy in the house and went to Prince Yu to study with Prince Yu.

"Yu's calligraphy is good."

"Yu Jieshu, the prince is waiting for you in Tingyuxuan, please come here."

"It rained yesterday, and the ground was wet and slippery. Yu proofread the book, you must be careful."

As soon as he entered Prince Yu's mansion, Yu Jin felt one thing: his status increased again. Whether he was an official, eunuch or a palace maid, he would greet him with a smile. On the way, he met a concubine of Prince Yu and said hello to him softly.

Feeling at home.

It was a little strange at first, but I realized it soon.

The people in the Yu Palace have a close relationship with the Yu Kingdom. They have helped Yu Kingdom several times, especially when they recognize their relatives, their timely appearance can be said to have saved Yu Kingdom's life once, so these people regard themselves as heroes.

This feels very good.

Before Zhang Juzheng finished his errands at the Imperial College, he postponed the lecture. King Yu set up a small banquet in Tingyuxuan in the back garden to personally have a banquet for Xie Yujin, a great hero.

"Hey. This is"

Before Yu Jin could walk to Tingyuxuan, he saw that there were still female relatives on Tingyuxuan from afar, and said in surprise.

On weekdays, when I go to Prince Yu's mansion, I often accompany me to study. I have been waiting in the side hall for a long time and rarely enter the harem. On weekdays, I don't see many women except the palace maids. Although Prince Yu is fond of women, Yu Jin really doesn't see any of those beauties.

Suddenly, when he saw Tingyuxuan appearing a woman who was obviously different from the palace maids and was dressed in luxurious clothes, Yu Jin couldn't recognize her for a while.

"Hehe, Yu proofreads the book, the one sitting was Princess Chen, who was the prince's concubine. And the one standing behind Princess Chen was Concubine Li." The eunuch He, who led the way, explained enthusiastically to Yu Jin when he heard this.

After saying that, he lowered his voice and said, "Concubine Li is the biological mother of the little prince. He was originally from the capital. He was promoted to the concubine after giving birth to the little prince. Yu Xueshu is really a blessing. The prince took the two concubines to meet the guests. This is not to treat Yu Xueshu as an outsider, hehe."

Yu Jin was a proofreader. He didn't work for the salary, but also knew the reason for taking more money on weekdays. He always acted generously. The servants from Prince Yu's mansion had a good impression of Yu Jin.

Without asking questions, Eunuch He took the initiative to explain.

Are the princess and concubines here?

Yu Jin was a little flattered for a while.

King Yu was so beautiful, he became a good woman. He was born in the imperial family and had endless blessings throughout his life. In the end, he died under the pomegranate skirt. In his life, there were three women very important: one was Li, Changping. Jiajing chose a concubine for Prince Yu, and gave birth to Prince Xianhuai. After her son died, she became depressed and became ill and died in April of the 37th year of Jiajing; the other was Chen, Tongzhou. Jiajing chose a concubine for Prince Yu in September of the same year after Li's death in Changping. Unfortunately, she was weak and sick and had never had any problems.

The last one is Li family in Qiang County, Xiao Wanli's biological mother. She was originally a palace maid. After being favored by King Yu, her mother was promoted to a concubine due to her son's honor.

Now Xiao Wanli doesn’t even have a name, let alone her concubine Li, because her status is too low and she cannot be with Prince Yu, Princess Chen and her son, so she can only wait behind her.

Without sitting on the dragon throne, King Yu was still King Yu. Although Li is now gorgeous in appearance, in the eyes of Princess Chen of Yu, he is just a well-dressed palace maid.

In ancient times, the class was very strict, and even the Li family, who gave birth to a son, could not be changed.

Yu Jin's mouth raised slightly, and did not comment more, but smiled and said to Eunuch He, "Eunuch Xie reminded me."

While saying that a huge ingot of silver had been stuffed.

"Yu's proofreading is so weird." Eunuch He smiled and was ruling, and the ingot of silver had already been put into his sleeves.

The movements are not very skillful.

Yu Jin came to Tingyuxuan and immediately saluted King Yu. After he was halfway through, he was helped up by King Yu himself.

"This is not a government office, so it's exemption."

"Prince Xie" Yu Jin turned his head and looked at it, pretending to be unaware of it, "What is this?"

King Yu pulled Yu Jin and said with a smile: "This is my concubine."

Yu Jin immediately saluted: "The emperor has met the princess."

Princess Chen has a very beautiful face, just like a fairy who is not as good as the worldly fireworks in the portrait. Her face is a little pale and has a pathological beauty advocated by the ancients.

If you can be chosen as a princess, your appearance will naturally not be bad.

Princess Chen was very kind. When she saw her husband standing up, she couldn't sit and talk. As soon as she raised her hand, a palace maid helped her up. After standing up, she smiled at Yu Jinzhan: "I heard from the prince that there was an amazing talent in the Ming Dynasty. When I saw her today, she was indeed a handsome young man."

Yu Jin is considered a hero of Prince Yu's Mansion, and Princess Chen has no airs towards Yu Jin."

"I dare not, the princess praised it, but the subordinates were ashamed of being responsible." Yu Jin said modestly.

Princess Chen nodded slightly and waved her hand and said, "It is said that a gentleman is like jade. This jade pendant is given to Yu Jieshu as a meeting gift."

As soon as he finished speaking, a palace maid came over with a silver plate. Yu Jin saw that it was a jade pendant the size of a palm, with a lifelike horse carved on it. When he picked it up, he saw the color and the flesh was warm. It was definitely a top-quality jade.

It's obviously ready early.

Yu Jin looked at it, put it back, and hurriedly said, "Princess, this is too expensive, and the subordinates cannot accept it."

This kind of jade pendant can be said to be a fine jade, and even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it.

Princess Chen smiled and said, "Yu's proofreading book is kind to Prince Yu's mansion and has helped the prince solve problems several times. This is my little concern. I hope Yu's proofreading book will not be disgusted."

"Princess Xie." Yu Jin took the jade pendant with both hands.

All of this has been said, if you don’t accept it, you will be disappointed.

Princess Chen smiled, and then sat down gracefully with the help of the palace maids.

The action is a bit like the legendary weak willow and bustle, which is very beautiful and pleasing to the eye.

When King Yu saw Yu Jin accepting the jade pendant, he patted Yu Jin on the shoulder intimately and said, "Thank you for your hard work a few days ago. Come on, have a few drinks today."

This King Yu really doesn't take Li's attention, and doesn't even introduce it. It is estimated that in King Yu's eyes, Li's family is just a fertility tool.

Yu Jin did not sit down, looked at Li standing behind her head with his head down, and said seriously: "Prince, this one is it."

Only then did King Yu realize, laughed, pointed at Li and said, "This is my concubine, Li."

"See the concubine." Yu Jin said respectfully.

Others don’t know that Yu Jin knew that Li was the future Empress Dowager Cisheng. This person with a low background but very strong heart was only ten years old when Wanli ascended the throne. He was too young. It was this Empress Dowager Li who ruled the country from behind the curtain and assisted Wanli. She was stubborn and self-disciplined throughout her life. With the efforts of her and Zhang Juzheng, the aging Ming Dynasty had a revival and the Ming Dynasty lasted for nearly a hundred years.

Empress Dowager Li was very righteous in educating her children and was very strict with Wanli. If she didn't do well, she would be punished for a long time. Wanli was also very respectful of this mother.

Yu Jin didn't dare to leave a bad impression on her.

Li didn't expect that Yu Jin would salute her, and the amount of etiquette was not inferior to Princess Chen. Hearing this, he hurriedly said, "Don't give up the gift, Yu proofreads the book."

Because it was a bit sudden, Li didn't know how to call his family good, and it seemed that the concubine, my concubine, my official, and my servant were not suitable.

"Thank you Concubine." Yu Jin stood up.

Although the incident happened suddenly, Li was a strong woman after all. He quickly calmed down and said to Yu Jin with a smile: "I heard from the prince that Yu proofreads is a rare talent in my Ming Dynasty. With Yu proofreading help, the prince will definitely be able to show his might."

"I don't know what to send when I met for the first time. I prepared two palace brocades for Yu Zai Shu. If I don't dislike him, I will ask Yu Zai Shu to take him away when he leaves the mansion."

King Yu had not ascended the throne yet. Because of Jiajing's prejudice and ignorance, Xiao Wanli had not been named, so it was needless to say that Li's status was only considered a more decent palace maid. It was probably that she had not prepared any gifts, but she was smart and said that she had prepared two palace silks for Yu Jin as a meeting gift, and took them away when she left.

I guess I have to prepare after I go back.

The ability to adapt is very good.

Yu Jin dared not to dislike him, and immediately responded: "Thank you."

King Yu nodded secretly, thinking that Yu Jin was indeed a humble gentleman, with a thoughtful manner, so he pulled Yu Jin to sit down.

Xiao Wanli was very sensible. After seeing Yu Jin sitting down, he immediately said to Yu Jin: "Yu Jieshu, have you promised to make fun for me? Have you brought it?"

As he spoke, his big eyes stared at Yu Jin, and small stars appeared in both eyes.

When Princess Chen heard this, she gently stroked Xiao Wanli's head and said, "Wang Erguai, Yu Xueshu still has a lot of official duties to deal with, so you can't spend too much time with you."

Yu Jin was a little embarrassed. He forgot what he promised him last time.

"The little prince wait a moment, it's almost done. Once it's done, I'll send it to you right away."

"Okay, what you said, you can't lie to the child." Xiao Wanli said with his eyes wide open and biting his finger.

"Sure, certain." Yu Jin nodded repeatedly.

King Yu laughed, hugged Xiao Wanli in his arms, kissed him twice, and then said with a pampering look: "Wang'er, if Yu Jieshu doesn't make fun of it, my father will punish him for you."

"Hehe, thank you father." Xiao Wanli said with a smile.
