Chapter 6 Meeting the Prince for the First Time (Part [-])
Gao Yushi still kowtowed politely: "Thank you, Your Majesty." Then he stood up solemnly.Although the emperor is close enough to Gao Gong, it doesn't mean that Gao Gong doesn't need to pay attention to etiquette. As an old fritter who has served as the first secretary of the county party committee for several years, many people don't blame him for saying this. One of the tenets.As for kowtowing, he had already broken through the psychological barrier a few years ago—in fact, he was forced to do nothing, so he had to say to himself like Ah Q: Anyway, they are all kneeling ancients. I don’t know how many generations of ancestors, what’s the big deal? .

Sure enough, Long Qing said with a smile: "The Gao family has a strict family style, I have seen it." Then he said to Gao Gong: "I heard that the master brought his nephew with him, and I have already ordered the prince to accompany... er, come here Talk to Xiao Gaoqing's family."

Gao Gong was okay, but he just bowed his hands to thank the emperor, but Gao Wushi was taken aback, and said to himself: "It seems that I still underestimated Sanbo's position in the emperor's heart, just a brat like me now , Just because he is 'Mr. Gao's nephew', the emperor actually called the prince to accompany me? This is really a worldview that has been subverted..." After thinking about it, he said politely: "The boy is so young, how dare he work for the prince? ?”

Long Qing waved his hands with a smile and said: "It's okay, since the prince was studying, due to the rules in the palace, even his younger brother seldom saw each other. I think he is usually bored. You two are almost the same age. Think about it. Played together. Feng Bao, take Xiao Gaoqing's family to the side hall and wait later, and then send someone to urge the prince."

Feng Bao hurriedly agreed, and politely took Gao Yushi away.Long Qing took Gao Gong's hand into the main hall with a happy face.

Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.Gao Gong's reminiscences of the monarch, ministers, teachers and students will not be discussed for now, here Gao Wushi followed Feng Bao into a side hall, Feng Bao led him to sit in the outer hall, and said: "The young master should be at the imperial concubine's place just now, Our family estimates the time, and it is almost here now, Mr. Xiao Gao, please rest for a while, and our family will pick up the young master."

Young Master, it is undoubtedly the prince. The eunuchs and maids in the palace of the Ming Dynasty called the prince "Xiao Ye", which is analogous to calling the emperor "Huang Ye" and "Long Live Grandpa". On the contrary, the "Long Live Lord" commonly used in later generations of film and television dramas is relatively rare-of course, there are too many fallacies in film and television dramas, and this kind of thing is already trivial.

Hearing that his tone was so polite that it could almost be called respectful, Gao Wushi couldn't help but feel a little elated.But no matter what they do now, they are still in charge of Dongchang and Yumajian [Note: Yumajian is not in charge of horses but in charge of military power. ], he belongs to the real power eunuch with both the secret service agency and the military power in the capital, and both hands are strong. Looking at the inner court, he should be regarded as the second person. A white kid like myself is just relying on the prestige of the third uncle, so I don’t want it. Hu pretended to be a good man, so he quickly stood up and bowed his hands in a dignified manner: "How can you be so polite, boy?"

Feng Bao hurriedly waved his hands and smiled: "Hey, what is Mr. Xiao Gao talking about? With the background of Xinzheng Gao's family, Mr. Xiao Gao may not be a cabinet minister in a few years? Our family is just a servant of the emperor, so we should treat it as a respectful advance." , that's nothing..."

When Gao Wushi heard what he said, he said in his heart: "Great opportunity!" He hurriedly said, "I don't agree with what the factory owner said—it's too modest! Even my third uncle usually praises the factory owner when he mentions it. Just boasting that Mr. Chang is the leader of Confucian eunuchs in the inner court, if it wasn't for... ah, I would have recommended Mr. Chang to go further!"

When Feng Bao first heard him say that Gao Gong praised him at home, he couldn't help sneering in his heart, and said to himself, "If Qing Gao Su would really praise me, how come I, Feng, don't have a handprint yet?" But when he heard the "if not" later, he couldn't help but Jump violently: "Could there be any hidden secrets here? Gao Gong...is it because of other reasons that he didn't recommend me?"

But it's inconvenient to ask directly, especially though the other party looks smart enough and behaves like a child of a certain age, but after all, it's the first time I've met him, what if the other party is just a tutor Strict, so the etiquette is thoughtful, but in fact, the mind is still no more than an ordinary child?It would be very unbeautiful if certain words were passed on.

When Feng Bao thought about it this way, he didn't plan to pursue this matter so hard, he rolled his eyes, pretended to be very happy and laughed, and his mouth became more polite: "Hey, Mr. Xiao Gao, don't brag. , although our family thinks that we are still hardworking in our studies, but in front of Mr. Gao Ge's bright moon, our family's ability is not even counted as the light of rice grains, so how dare we be this Confucian word?"

Gao Wushi was about to take advantage of the situation to give Feng Bao another top hat, but he heard an immature childish voice: "When did you pay attention to your studies, Daban? Obviously when I was studying, you looked at me and fell asleep... "

The person who said this need not think too much, it can only be Zhu Yijun, the present prince and future Wanli emperor.

Seeing Feng Bao's embarrassing expression, Gao Wushi couldn't help but turn his head to look at the door as he pretended not to notice.I saw a boy who was about the same height as himself, with red lips and white teeth, walked in with a smile.

He was wearing a vermilion-colored uniform and a small round black hat covering his bald head—children in the Ming Dynasty had their hair shaved, and children of the royal family were no exception.There is a special comb room in the palace, usually with more than ten attendants, who are responsible for asking for hair, keeping hair, putting it in the bag, and plastic surgery (arranging appearance) for the prince's children.When princes and princesses are born, their hair will be cut at the full moon, and after a hundred days of naming, they will shave their hair on schedule, which is called "please hair".At least on this point, the children of the prince are no different from the children of the common people. They all have to shave off all their hair, leaving no hair behind, "like the children of the Buddha".

The six-petal round hat made of black and green crepe that His Royal Highness is wearing on his head is called "Dala Hat".Generally speaking, boys start to grow their hair when they are in their teens, and after a year of hair growth, they choose an auspicious day to "put it into the bag", that is, the hair is always tied behind the head, put in a special bag, and hangs behind.The pouch is two inches wide and more than a foot long. It is made of black silk in winter and black yarn in summer.Generally speaking, it is not until the prince chooses a concubine to marry that he chooses an auspicious crown ceremony to show that he is an adult.

However, if the princes are crowned princes or queens, they will be rewarded with crowns and clothes by the court, such as Mianfu, Pibianfu, regular clothes, and Baohe crown clothes created during the Jiajing period.Gao Wushi is a little surprised that although the prince is young, he has indeed been crowned prince, so why he is still dressed like this is a bit surprising.Thinking about it, it was probably because the emperor didn't expect Gao Gong to bring him in, so he didn't inform the prince in advance, and the prince was usually very casual in the palace, and he didn't dress too "troublesome".

Of course, these are trivial matters, and Gao Yushi didn't bother to delve into it. He just glanced at the prince. From the appearance, there was nothing outstanding, and of course there was nothing abrupt. The small face with red lips and white teeth was a bit fat and round. Round, from the perspective of children, it is quite cute.

He knew that the children of the royal family were very sensitive to some etiquette, so he didn't dare to procrastinate, so he stepped forward to salute: "Xiaomin is very pragmatic, and I have met His Royal Highness." He did not kneel down and kowtow, but gave a deep bow-this is in line with his The origin of a scholar from an official family, after all, although the prince is theoretically a "king", he is only a prince after all, and it is exactly the same as when he is facing the emperor.

"Excuse me." Judging from the prince's tone, this sentence was said very casually.

However, Gao Wushi didn't dare to be too casual, he still straightened up after performing the bow - he was not familiar with this young master.
