After Li Shanchang heard this, he left. He planned to go back to discuss with the auxiliary officers of the Zhongshu Province. Zhu Biao stayed here to continue to invigilate the exam. After all, it was only the first day, so it would not be appropriate for both of them to leave.
However, this matter was really boring. Zhu Biao wandered around silently for several times, and then gave up. Those candidates were already very nervous. When they saw Zhu Biao approaching, they wrote with all their strength, wanting to show that they were writing with dexterity.
style.
Zhu Biao was a little bored. He had known that he would leave Li Shan to chat for a while. He walked to the room of Song Lian, the examiner. After the two parties greeted each other, they sat down. Zhu Biao asked: "Master Song, do you have the exam papers?"
Song Lian smiled and said: "Yes, yes, but no matter how good your highness answers, you still can't be the number one scholar."
Zhu Biao also smiled and said: "It's just to kill time."
Zhu Biao was bored, and Song Lian was bored too, so Zhu Biao started to answer questions. Song Lian looked on with satisfaction, stroking his beard and nodding from time to time. Just like that, by nightfall, Zhu Biao finished answering the three-day test papers in one day.
.
After Zhu Biao finished writing, he stood up, stretched his muscles and asked, "Master Song, what do you think of this volume?"
Song Lian smiled and said: "It can be used as a standard for marking papers."
Zhu Zhuozhi said goodbye to Song Lian with great satisfaction. He won't be coming tomorrow. He will just take a look when the scientific examination is over.
Zhu Biao walked out of the house. Candlelight was already burning in the dormitory outside. Some people chose to rest directly and recharge their batteries to answer the questions tomorrow. This was also a psychological test.
Zhu Biao made one final inspection of the examination room, then walked out through the gate, returned to the East Palace, washed his feet under Nuan Yu's service, and then lay down. Just as he was about to put down the candle, he heard Yun Jin's voice.
Zhu Biao asked her to come in. After Yun Jin saluted, he naturally sat on the edge of the bed: "Today, when I was serving the Queen, I happened to meet Princess Kaiping and the Crown Princess to visit me. The Crown Princess also rewarded my servant with a jade pendant.
.”
Zhu Biao didn't pay much attention to Yun Jin's words, but looked at her soft face. Yun Jin's characteristic is her innate gentle temperament. She is obviously still a little girl, and she is very mature in taking care of others and doing things."
Zhu Biao closed his eyes and said, "Just accept it if I give it to you. Don't think too much."
Yun Jin replied softly: "I understand."
The two stopped talking, Zhu Biao didn't let go of Yun Jin's hand, and fell asleep unconsciously.
When Zhu Biao got up early the next morning, he didn't see Yun Jin. The young and old were waiting for him to dress and wash. Zhu Biao didn't want to eat by himself, so he set off to Kunning Palace to have a meal.
Along the way, I saw many eunuchs and maids, like industrious ants, cleaning up the palace early.
When Zhu Biao arrived at Kunning Palace, he happened to meet Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma having dinner together. He was very happy to see his son coming so early in the morning. After Zhu Biao saluted them, he sat aside and started eating.
None of the three said anything, but Zhu Biao felt inexplicably relieved. After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang finished his drink, stood up, patted his son on the shoulder, and went out to court.
Zhu Biao was not surprised. His father always ate very quickly. He didn't gobble it up but just very quickly. Maybe it was a habit left over from his youth.
After a while, the sleepy classmate Zhu Lu came out. Zhu Biao reached out to her happily. Zhu Lu seemed to still remember her brother. She obediently wrapped her arms around his brother's neck, buried her little head in Zhu Biao's arms, and prepared to sleep for a while.
.
Zhu Biao hugged Zhu Lu and talked for a long time before finally waking her up, and then handed her over to the wet nurse to feed her. Although Zhu Lu stopped drinking milk at this time, the food was still very delicate.
Made in the kitchen of Kunning Palace.
Queen Ma looked at her son and said, "Since you like children so much, then give me a grandson as soon as possible."
Zhu Biao smiled and said: "My son hasn't even gotten married yet, and you've started urging me to have a child."
Empress Ma sighed and said: "This day is really boring. You and your son are busy from morning to night. Just like your father, I know what time he came back last night, and he doesn't see anyone on weekdays.
"
Zhu Biao was also helpless about this. In the Tang Dynasty, the status of women had improved to a certain extent compared with the previous dynasty. Emperor Wu Zetian of the Zhou Dynasty made a lot of efforts for this. At that time, there were almost no restrictions on women's participation in social activities.
After the unremitting efforts of the scholar-officials of the Song Dynasty, especially the noble women, there were even fewer things they could do, and they basically could not do without their own courtyards.
When Zhu Yuanzhang launched his army, Empress Ma was in charge of the internal and external affairs, and she took care of the civil servants, generals, and their families. But now she is restricted to the inner courtyards of the palace, and no one can see her except those married women.
Even if the married women got along well with Queen Ma before, they must now pay attention to the etiquette of respecting others. Yun Jin will help her handle the affairs in the palace, and the concubines in the palace will also respect her.
Queen Ma now proves how lonely it is to be invincible.
Zhu Biao had no choice but to promise to marry a daughter-in-law and give birth to grandchildren for his mother as soon as possible. Empress Ma took him and chatted with Chang Luohua for a while, and she could feel that she was very satisfied with her words.
Zhu Biao stayed for a while and then returned to the East Palace, and then continued to prepare for his work. If you think about many things more, you will have better ideas. In the afternoon, the eunuch next to Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly sent something.
Zhu Biao asked Liu Jin to take it, and then he opened it and felt very familiar. Isn't this an erotic picture found in Lu Chang's study?
Zhu Biao's face darkened, and he opened the remaining things one by one. It can only be said that Lao Zhu was fully prepared, not only the erotic pictures but also the books that explained the matter in detail...
It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang also wants to have a grandson as soon as possible, for fear that his son has not yet awakened, but he can't tell his father, that's it?
Zhu Biao said to the eunuch with a bright smile: "You go back and report to my father, and I will study it carefully."
Asking Liu Jin to send him out, Zhu Biao couldn't help but smile and read a few pages of the book. It was not bad. It seemed that the ancients were very professional in this aspect, which was correct. After all, there was nothing else to relieve stress except this.
Zhu Biao's body is actually developing very well and he has begun to enter puberty. If he wants to, he can indeed give birth to an heir. This is actually very important. If the prince has a successor, the subjects of the East Palace will feel more at ease.
However, Zhu Biao planned to give birth to a child in another two years. He did not need a son to stabilize his position. In addition, Chang Luohua was not very young, so giving birth to a child in ancient times was still very risky.
After Liu Jin came back, he looked at it curiously, and then his eyes dimmed a lot. The eunuch naturally felt the pain of an eunuch, but Liu Jin immediately smiled.
A slave is a slave. When his master is happy, he must follow him. How can he spoil his master's mood because of him?
Zhu Biao was naturally not that vulgar. He insisted on watching erotic pictures with the castrated eunuch and told him to put them away. Zhu Biao then went on to study his own affairs.
