Volume Four, Three Southern Counties, Chapter 382, ??Prince Gong's Mansion
The outer city and the inner city are mainly where ordinary people live.
The imperial city was where dignitaries lived.
The core of the imperial city is the imperial palace, which is the largest in area.
There are hundreds of courtyards where the concubines live, and each courtyard is not much different from the residence of a high-ranking official.
But who knew that the new emperor was a woman?
Where did the concubine come from?
So most of the rooms are empty.
…
After waiting for about two hours, it was finally Lu Jiuzhang and others' turn.
"My young prince, you can take the special passage."
When they saw the token of the young prince Zhou Zheng, the soldiers guarding the city gate were frightened and said hurriedly.
Some dignitaries have other ways to enter the city and do not have to queue here.
"What do you want me to say? I don't know?" Little Fatty Zhou Zheng deliberately glared at the soldiers guarding the city gate, "I'm just a prince. If there is something urgent, you still have to queue up. You must not be special!"
After saying this, the little fat man Zhou Zheng deliberately raised his eyebrows at a few people, meaning that he knew how good he was and knew not to use special means.
"Uncle, didn't you tell me earlier if there was another way?" Lu Jiuzhang punched the little fat man Zhou Zheng, "We've been waiting here for so long in vain!"
Sitting in a carriage is a torture.
The carriage was very slow and could only move a few feet in half a day.
"Forgot, forgot!"
The little fat man Zhou Zheng smiled angrily.
The carriage slowly drove into Jingzhao Mansion.
Then, it drove towards Prince Gong's Mansion.
Now that we have arrived at Jingzhao Mansion, everyone no longer needs to stay in an inn, they can just stay at the home of little fat Zhou Zheng.
Anyway, Prince Gong’s Mansion is quite large, and there are especially many guest rooms inside.
…
"My lords, someone is stopping the car!"
Not long after the carriage entered Jingzhao Mansion, the boy driving outside reminded him.
"Who dares to stop my carriage? Don't you know the name of one of the three hegemons in the Jingzhao Mansion of Zhou Zheng? How dare you stop my carriage!"
The fat little Zhou Zheng stepped out of the carriage and saw a Confucian scholar in Tsing Yi standing in front of the carriage.
When the Confucian scholar saw Zhou Zhenghou, he just smiled slightly.
"Who are you? Stopping my carriage?"
Zhou Zheng shouted.
"I'm Wu Rendi!"
The Confucian scholar raised his hands and said, "I want to see Lu Jiuzhang."
Wu Rendi?
This name is somewhat familiar.
Holy shit!
Isn't this someone's great disciple?
Dry!
"It's really a flood that has washed away the Dragon King Temple. The whole family no longer knows each other." The little fat man Zhou Zheng smiled, then looked back into the carriage, "Master Jiu, I'm looking for you."
Lu Jiuzhang also got out of the carriage and was slightly startled when he saw the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi and Confucian shirt in front of him.
"Hello, junior brother, I am also a student of Master Xu. My name is Wu Rendi, and I have the nickname Liuyi. You can call me senior brother." The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi said slowly.
The word sixty-one?
Children's Day?
Lu Jiuzhang couldn't help but think of this.
Or is it the first day of June?
"Senior brother!" Lu Jiuzhang cupped his hands, "Senior brother, you can call me Shoucheng. This is the word given to me by the teacher."
"Elder brother, let's get on the carriage and chat first!"
Lu Jiuzhang invited.
After all, he is a senior brother, so Lu Jiuzhang felt that he should be more polite.
If I really want to say it, people have been following Master Xu for the longest time.
"Master Jiu, when Master Xu was imparting knowledge to the new emperor, if he went out for something, it was the acting teacher in front of him who taught the new emperor, so he is also considered half of the new emperor's master."
Fatty Zhou Zheng leaned into Lu Jiuzhang's ear and reminded him.
Holy shit!
Such a big background!
This senior brother of mine is no ordinary person either.
When the middle-aged man in blue clothes and Confucian shirt entered the carriage, everyone became respectful.
You know, the great scholar Xu Master is now the most popular person around the new emperor.
The person in front of me is still half a teacher of the New Emperor, and his status should not be underestimated.
"The teacher asked me to come to see my junior brother. I plan to let him live in the teacher's mansion after he arrives at Jingzhao Mansion." Wu Rendi said.
"Elder brother, you are late. I have already planned to stay at the young prince's house." Lu Jiuzhang said.
"It doesn't matter, you can live anywhere. The teacher's mansion is simple and simple, not as good as the palace, but it's not bad to live there."
Wu Rendi nodded.
As soon as these words came out, Lu Jiuzhang felt embarrassed, as if he disliked the poor and loved the rich.
"Junior brother, I have an outspoken temperament and speak outright. The teacher often said that I would offend others invisibly. I also wanted to change it before, but I never could."
Senior Brother Wu Rendi smiled and said, "If I offend my junior brother inadvertently, I hope that my junior brother will not blame me."
"Don't worry, senior brother, I'm not a petty person!"
Lu Jiuzhang cupped his hands.
"That's good, I feel relieved." Wu Rendi nodded.
"Brother Wu, why did you choose Liuyi?" Lu Jiuzhang asked curiously.
"this……"
Wu Rendi smiled sheepishly, "I plan to read ten thousand books, bring a sword, a piano, a pot of wine, and a chess set, and travel a million miles."
"This is Liuyi, so the word Liuyi is named after it."
It turns out that it still has this meaning.
Unexpectedly, my senior brother had far-reaching ambitions.
"So how many books have you read, senior brother, and how far have you traveled?" Little Fatty Zhou Zheng asked curiously.
"I feel ashamed to say that I am a bit stupid. I have traveled less than ten thousand miles. Most of the books I have read are the Four Books, Five Classics and saints' classics. I have not figured out the true meaning of them. As for the sword, I have never found a good sword. I plan to make my own
We already have some materials and are still collecting them."
"As for wine, I don't have high requirements. A pot of turbid wine will suffice."
"As for Go, I have a good chessboard, but there are still two chess pieces missing."
Boy, barely any movement!
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
"Let's not talk about this, let's talk about junior brother." Wu Rendi looked at Lu Jiuzhang, "Junior brother, the teacher said that after you come to Jingzhao Mansion, don't rush into the palace and meet with him first."
"Just tonight, I will take you to see the teacher."
"Let's go to Prince Gong's Mansion together first!"
Lu Jiuzhang also saw that this senior brother was really straight-tempered and straight-talking, with almost no ill intentions.
"Elder brother, the teacher asked me to go see him first, why?" Lu Jiuzhang asked.
"this……"
Senior Brother Wu Rendi's face turned red, "Junior Brother, I know the reason, but I can't tell you. Even if I think about it, I can't lie to you."
"Okay, stop talking, senior brother. I look at your expression and I'm afraid that I'll stifle you."
Lu Jiuzhang said quickly.
Peng Qiangyou was curious about this senior brother's cultivation, "May I ask, senior brother, what level of Confucianism and Taoism are you at now?"
"I have never been a Confucian and Taoist scholar. Maybe I'm too stupid. I can't even read the Four Books and Five Classics." Wu Rendi smiled bitterly, "But the teacher said that my junior brother is gifted and is now a Confucian and Taoist scholar."
Such a state puts my senior brother to shame."
Have you been with Master Xu for so long?
Haven't you ever mastered Confucianism and Taoism?
This shocked Lu Jiuzhang’s jaw!
Logically speaking, it shouldn’t be!
The teacher is so awesome, why is the senior brother not even at the ninth level of Confucianism and Taoism?
Could it be that Master Xu made a mistake?
But it shouldn’t be. Master Xu is so powerful, how could he be mistaken?
Or is it that the senior brother is hiding his clumsiness? This chapter has been completed!
