Chapter 605 Extra Story: Entering the Palace ([-])
For the first time in his life, Shen Xu experienced the embarrassment of "being in the limelight".

Mother's previous instructions quietly surfaced in my mind.

Yuan Rui coughed, and broke the short silence with a smile: "Brother Shen is full of spirit, and his skills must be outstanding. You must ask for advice some other day. Time is running out, let's enter the palace quickly! Don't let His Royal Highness and His Royal Highness is waiting impatiently."

Yuan Rui is the eldest grandson of Yuan's parents, and he and His Highness the Grandson are first cousins.In terms of family background and closeness, they are all firmly number one.Saying these words at this time not only relieved Shen Xu from the siege, but also established and stabilized his position quietly.

Sure enough, Meng Ling agreed with a smile: "That makes sense, let's go now!"

Shen Xu and others nodded together and stepped into the palace gate.

Shen Xu once entered the palace when he was young.It's just that I was too young at the time and didn't have any memory.As soon as he entered the palace gate, Shen Xu glanced around from the corner of his eye.

The imperial palace is so big, the palace walls are so high, and the corridors are so long!
Soon, a majestic palace came into view.Come to think of it, this is the East Palace.

Shen Xu was amazed in his heart, and finally stabilized his face without losing his composure.

The servant led the way and led a group of teenagers into the East Palace.In order to express his solemnity and importance, His Royal Highness specially set the meeting place in the main hall of the East Palace.More than [-] officials belonging to the East Palace are also listed together.

Among these six teenagers, only one, Yuan Rui, often enters the palace, and the other five are experiencing such battles for the first time, and each of them feels awe-inspiring.

Under the guidance of the servants, all the young people saluted together: "I have met His Royal Highness, and I have seen His Royal Highness."

Zhu Yun smiled at the corner of his mouth, his eyes glanced at Shen Xu's vigorous and handsome face, and he was in a very happy mood: "Let's all get flat!" Then he smiled and said to the grandson Zhu Dong beside him: "Dong'er, you only know Yuan Rui, and the other five people only know Yuan Rui. Hearing his name, today is the first time I have seen it. And I will see you in the past."

Zhu Dong responded with a smile, stepped forward and asked all the boys' names and ages one by one.

Shen Xu is the youngest one, so naturally he should be ranked last.Taking advantage of this moment, he quietly looked around, and saw that His Royal Highness was slender, with a handsome face and a gentle smile, making him feel like a spring breeze.

He looks like he has a good temper.

Shen Xu finally felt a little relieved.

Soon, Zhu Dong came to Shen Xu and asked with a smile, "Are you Shen Xu?"

Shen Xu raised his chest subconsciously, and replied loudly: "Yes, I am Shen Xu, and I am 11 years old. I left Beijing when I was two years old and grew up in a border city."

The officials of the East Palace who were watching couldn't help laughing secretly.

Most of them are old people in the East Palace, and they have all experienced Shen You's "demeanor" of cherishing words like gold and gloomy and stern.Unexpectedly, Shen You's son has a completely different appearance, which is far beyond everyone's expectations.

The energetic young man with a bright smile will fall in love with anyone who sees it.

A smile flashed in Zhu Dong's eyes: "I've grown up so much, I haven't been out of the capital yet, so I'm not as knowledgeable as you. When you have free time in the future, you have to tell me about the customs and customs of the border town."

Shen Xu simply nodded in response.

Seeing this scene in his eyes, Zhu Yun felt quite relieved, and opened his mouth and said: "Dong'er, take them to the Hall of Supreme Harmony and meet your imperial grandfather."

Zhu Dong nodded in response.

To be honest, it is a bit too solemn for a few grandsons to study with the emperor just like this.However, thinking about Emperor Qing'an's love for his grandson, it's not a big deal.

Shen Xu didn't think much about it, and followed His Highness Taisun out of the East Palace to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The six great-grandchildren accompanied the reading, so there is a natural order of standing.Yuan Rui insisted on occupying the rear position on the left, followed by Meng Ling, and Shen Xu calmly followed behind Meng Ling.

The accompanying reader on the right rear is the elder grandson of Yu Ge.The other two sons of civil servants followed behind.

There was a clear distinction between civil and military affairs in the Great Qi Dynasty, which can be seen.

Outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, there are servants to pass it on.Zhu Dong turned his head and said with a smile to the young people: "This is the first time you have entered the palace, and it is the first time you have met the imperial grandfather. The imperial grandfather is majestic and solemn, and the sky is mighty. Don't be frightened by the imperial grandfather later."

Yuan Rui responded on behalf of all the young people: "Don't worry, Your Highness, we will be cautious and not embarrass Your Highness."

Zhu Dong grinned and glanced at Shen Xu calmly.

My father has repeatedly instructed in private that when the companions enter the palace, they must be treated equally, and they should not be treated differently because of closeness.That is to say, don't praise Yuan's cousin too much.

Also, treat Shen Xu better.

Zhu Dong sounded a little strange at the time, and asked specifically: "What's better? Why did the father mention Shen Xu on purpose?"

At that time, Zhu Yun looked calm, and opened his mouth and said: "Shen Xu's father, Shen You, was the commander of your imperial grandfather's personal guard back then. He once rescued your imperial grandfather. Later, he also rescued me once at the border. Although the courtiers are loyal It should be, a king should also be grateful in his heart."

"Furthermore, Shen Xu was originally in the border town, but now he leaves his parents and mother to come to the palace as a companion. You should take care of him a little bit."

When Shen You left Beijing, Zhu Dong had already remembered.Hearing what Zhu Yun said, a tall and steady figure and a handsome and cold face suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Your father's words have been written down." Zhu Dong opened his mouth and replied, "When they all enter the palace, I will definitely pay more attention to Shen Xu."

When I saw him today, Shen Xu's handsome face, which resembled his father Shen You, made him feel familiar and friendly.

Of course, Shen Xu's temperament is not at all like that of Commander Shen back then.

……

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Emperor Qing'an was discussing matters with several courtiers.

Wang Gonggong waited for half an hour, saw the idle time, and quietly went forward to report: "Report to the emperor, His Royal Highness Taisun has brought some companions to pay his respects to the emperor."

Emperor Qing'an's eyes flickered slightly, and he glanced at Wang Gonggong: "Why didn't you report it earlier?"

When the emperor was dealing with political affairs, even if the prince and grandson came, he had to wait outside.This is also the custom in the palace.Not to mention a few half-grown teenagers who came to see him?

However, in front of the emperor, there was no way to argue, so the prince had to bow his head and plead guilty.

Emperor Qing'an suppressed the urgency in his heart, and ordered: "Let them in."

After a while, several teenagers entered the Hall of Supreme Harmony together.

Emperor Qing'an saw Shen Xu at a glance.

Genetics are amazing.

Shen Xu's face resembled Shen You when he was young, no one would mistake him for it.However, the temperament and demeanor are not the same at all. The 11-year-old boy is still immature, like a young tree that has not yet grown up, full of vigor.A pair of bright black eyes, with the unique fearlessness and magnanimity of a teenager.

When saluting, Shen Xu even secretly raised his eyes to look at him, the emperor.

Emperor Qing'an pretended not to see this little overstepping, and secretly smiled in his heart.
