Ming Dynasty, starting from the empty seal case

Chapter 49 Famous Scenes ()
  The next day.

Early in the morning, Su Xian got up early.

In his previous life, his most common nightmare was going to school before dawn.

I didn't expect to encounter it in this life.

His father, Su Guiyuan, was actually fainted and would not wake up the next day at least. In the end, only his mother sent him there.

They are not leaving the Chengtianmen or Fengtianmen where hundreds of officials go to court...

Instead, enter the deep palace from Xi'an Gate on the west.

now.

Su Xian obviously came earlier. The guard took one look and knew that Su Xian was a student going to the main hall today, but it wasn't time to open the door yet, so he had to wait.

And just for a while.

Outside Xi'an Gate, one luxurious carriage after another stopped.

"Little Marquis, it's time to wake up..."

"Second Young Master, we have arrived..."

"Second brother and third brother, get out of the car!"

Su Xian was watching with interest when he suddenly saw a tall young man with a square face. He kicked the two brothers who were still staring blankly out of the carriage with two feet...

My mother was also stunned when she saw it!
  Su Xian paused and noticed that there was a big "Xu" hanging on the carriage of this tall young man.

Wherever it passed, the carriages parked on the roadside all moved out of the way, allowing him to come directly to the center of Xi'an Gate. Even the guards were respectful.

There was only one Xu family in the Ming Dynasty, and it was Wei Guogong Xu Da who was so high-profile.

That tall young man should be Xu Huizu?

As for the two, one looks less than ten years old and the other looks only about seven or eight years old. They should be Xu Yingxu and Xu Zengshou.

Just when the two brothers were kicked out of the carriage.

"Haha, the Xu brothers are here too, but our brothers are late because you two bastards got up late!"

While talking.

Su Xian continued to look towards the source of the sound, but was stunned again.

Still one big brother and two brothers.

It's just that this one is really tough. He lets the two little brothers hold the carriage, while he hides in the carriage and has no servants.

As soon as the two boys arrived, they ran out of the carriage without any explanation and came directly to the gate of Xi'an.

"Why don't you open the door? It's already cold enough, and you're not afraid of freezing us to death."

There was a "pop" sound.

Behind him, his eldest brother slapped him directly on the back of the head.

"This is the palace. You two little brats, don't tell me whether you will die or not. It's unlucky. If you cause trouble after entering, don't go to the East Palace to find eldest sister. Otherwise, I will cause trouble for you two brats when you go back!"

With that said, he came straight to Xu Huizu and started talking.

Just last year.

King Zhu Di of Yan married Xu Miaoyun, the eldest daughter of Xu Mansion.

It is now the tenth year of Hongwu. According to history, in a few years, Zhu Di will go north to join the feudal clan.

In terms of status, both of them were at the top of the Ming Dynasty, and they were on par with each other.

And Su Xian heard the words "Sister Donggong" again.

The identities of those three are self-evident.

The late Chang Yuchun, the three brothers of the Chang family who were posthumously named the "Kaiping Prince's Mansion"!
  Chang Mao, Chang Sheng, Chang Sen.

Xu family, Chang family!
  There is no doubt that Xu Da and Chang Yuchun are among the best leaders among the founding generals.

As for the other Dukes of Song, Feng Sheng, Duke of Ying, Fu Youde, and Duke of Cao, Li Wenzhong... they are even more shining stars!
  The series of founding feats of the Ming Dynasty seem to be less popular in the history books of later generations than the romances of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, or even the classic stories of the Three Kingdoms...

However, the real situation is that each of their achievements is astonishing.

Perhaps it was precisely because the speed of quelling the civil strife, sweeping away the Northern Yuan Dynasty, and expelling the Tartars was so fast that there were not many storylines for later generations to adapt, and they could not be spread...

While thinking about it.

"Hey! Why did a strange face come today?"

at this time.

But Chang Sen, who barged in front of the door and shouted to open the door quickly, suddenly saw Su Xian and looked over with curious eyes.

And as his voice sounded, more and more eyes focused on him.

It was obviously the first time for my mother to see this situation and she was very nervous.

After all, everyone present, to ordinary people like them, are all real top cloud figures.

When I saw the imperial edict before, saying that my son was going to the main hall, I didn't think anything of it. But now that I was actually in it, I felt the overwhelming pressure.

Let go of identity suppression.

The two of them walked towards each other on their own feet.

These noble disciples all ride in luxurious carriages...

This made Wu Xiusheng feel huge frustration.

However, after Wu Xiu's face turned pale, she forced herself to calm down, forced out a smile, and said with a trembling voice, "This... this is my son... the Holy Emperor..."

Su Xian took a step forward and stood in front of her mother.

"You'll be familiar with it after today."

"Ha, that's right!" Chang Sen is only seven years old this year and looks almost the same age as Su Xian.

Su Xian was stunned for a moment at Su Xian's answer, then wiped his nose and nodded.

"Third brother, no, I remember who he is?"

At this moment, Chang Sheng on the other side shouted: "You forgot, when we went to the eldest sister's place yesterday, didn't the eldest sister say that Xiongying was playing with a child on the city wall, and that child was given a large education by the emperor? This church!"

"Are you him?"

As he said this, more and more people reacted and focused their attention again.

"Is he the prodigy who wrote the memorial to the emperor?"

"real or fake?"

"My father also said that the scale of the Kongyin case was small this time. It would be a pity not to kill him. It was only thanks to him!"

"Please keep your voice down, dad also said, don't say this to anyone, otherwise those civil servants will be anxious if they hear that we are laughing at their jokes..."

Whispering sounds sounded around.

But Chang Sen, who had just started, pointed at Su Xian and said:
  "You are younger than me. I am so scared when I see the emperor. You dare to do this, you are so awesome!"

Su Xian smiled and said nothing.

Just then.

"The door is open!"

Chang Sen, who had been at the door all the time, shouted when he saw this scene, and immediately rushed in without hesitation.

A crowd of people followed behind.

Su Xian was also ready to leave.

"Xian'er!"

At this moment, mother lowered her head and touched Su Xian's head.

"When you get inside, you must not be petty, don't be as naughty as you are at home, and don't fight with others... Let's just learn our skills..."

Today's experience obviously made Wu Xiu very uncomfortable.

In other families, there are either sons of meritorious generals, and there is at least one marquis in the family.

Either he is the son of a senior official of the third rank or above and is chosen as a companion.

Even if they are young talents selected by the Holy Master from the Guozi School, they are a little older, around fourteen or fifteen years old, but I heard that they are all accompanied by princes.

My child is still so young.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but worry. She didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse for her son to be here. If he was bullied, she would have no place to reason.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his son would be bullied. In the end, scenes of "tragic" scenes automatically appeared in Wu Xiu's mind.

Su Xian was carrying a small schoolbag. This was the backpack he asked his mother to sew.

In addition to the most common Four Books and Five Classics, there are also the Three-Character Classic and the Thousand-Character Classic...

Of course, there are also the small toys he specially brought.

As if sensing her mother's uneasiness, Su Xian couldn't say anything. She just nodded and walked inside. Xi'an Gate doesn't open for a long time. The rules in the palace are strict and there are time limits.

And just when they all went in and were about to close the door.

"Don't close the door yet, wait for me!"

Su Xian followed the crowd and quickly turned around when he heard the sound.

"Li Jinglong, haha, you are late again!"

Chang Mao shouted towards the front with a loud voice.

"Close the door quickly! Close the door quickly!"

"Close the door! Close the door! Let him get the board!"

The group laughed and laughed.

Outside the door, a handsome young figure, dressed in rough clothes, almost squeezed in through the crack of the door.

When Su Xian saw him, Li Jinglong was only thirteen or fourteen years old.

It is hard to imagine that he will become a powerful person in the history books of later generations - "The God of War of the Ming Dynasty!"

……

the other half.

East Palace.

Zhu Xiongying also jumped to his feet today.

Chang Jing couldn't help but feel helpless when she saw her son being so active.

He is young, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't go to the main hall. The old man is even willing to let him accompany him.

In the past, it was said that we should not talk about it until we are six years old.

But early this morning, he woke up first, and then yelled for his father to take him.

but.

Now Zhu Biao has begun to supervise state affairs. If business is busy, he does not need to go to the main hall.

"Your second uncle and third uncle will take you there today."

"Also, your fourth uncle is newly married, so don't listen to your second uncle and third uncle's tricks and make fun of your fourth uncle for causing trouble."

Zhu Biao pinched his son's little face.

While the other party was eating, the second Prince Qin and the third Prince Jin had already arrived at the East Palace.

Zhu Biao just had some time and warned them:
  "If nothing else happens, you will join the vassal next year and study hard in the main hall. After you go out, you must not cause trouble. You must behave like the king of the Zhu family! Protect the fiefdom and provide for the people."

"Not long ago, my father revised the "Huang Ming Ancestor Instructions". Regarding the vassal chapter, the whole court was talking about it, saying that the power was too heavy, and I'm afraid it will lead to criticism in the future!"

"As those of you who are joining the feudal clan for the first time, remember to start from now on, study hard, and cultivate your character! After joining the feudal clan, you must not lose the face of your father, let alone abuse your authority. Otherwise, I will not be able to spare you!"

In the early stage, Zhu Yuanzhang gave these vassal kings huge rights.

In comparison, what later generations called the "massive salary" that led to the collapse of the Ming Dynasty is simply inconspicuous now, or in other words, it is not the focus of the discussion!

But administrative power and military power!
  What Zhu Yuanzhang gave to the vassal king was to rule and manage a place, a real "king"!
  Each feudal prince's palace also has its own "Prince's Palace" and "Prince Fu's Palace", and even taxes are calculated separately.

Restarting enfeoffment is no joke.

When Zhu Yuanzhang was still King of Wu, it was Zhu Biao who managed these brothers when he led the troops in battle.

To them, Zhu Biao was a brother like a father, but he did not have the majesty of his father.

The two naturally laughed and agreed.

The King of Qin was rough and arrogant, while the King of Jin was feminine.

However, both of them were convinced, and finally saw Zhu Xiongying come out.

King Qin immediately went forward, picked up Zhu Xiongying, and finally placed him around his neck.

"Come on, I tell you this every day, my ears are getting calluses."

Zhu Biao smiled helplessly, waved his hand, and told the two of them to leave quickly.

King Qin was carrying Zhu Xiongying on his back, and soon he met some royal brothers on the road.

A large group of people went to Guozi School.

I don’t know how long I’ve been gone...

At this moment, Zhu Xiongying, who was lying behind King Qin, insisted on telling them to stop, looking in the direction of Xihua Gate, and waited for a while before leaving.

As the core of the third generation, almost the entire palace holds him as a treasure.

These princes stood there helplessly...

……

And at this time.

Not long after entering Xi'an Gate, and walking forward for almost a quarter of an hour, we reached Xihua Gate.

After walking for so long, Su Xian's only feeling was that the palace was really big. Even though he grew up in the neighborhood, it wouldn't be that far even after walking ten times.

This is still the distance from the first gate to the west gate to the second gate.

And obviously.

Everyone was extremely curious about the small figure of Su Xian. Just along the way, more than one or two people came to look at and inquire.

There are also a few students who, like Su Xian, were recruited by the imperial edict to accompany us in reading and to enhance the learning atmosphere. They also said that they would hang out with us because the water in this palace is too deep.

of course.

Su Xian was still too young, and after asking about his identity, he was just the son of an eighth-level promotion.

Although Su Guiyuan had been promoted in the past few days and had entered the Baobao Promotion Department under the jurisdiction of Zhongshu Province, he was so proud that many people came to make friends.

But in front of these people, it still doesn't catch their eyes.

Honorable children, heirs of all princes.

Standing at the top of the Ming Dynasty since he was born, watching the struggle for power in the official circles below was like watching a fighting cock fighting for two and a half years.

Even though he is a talented person who is studying with the princes, he has been influenced by his ears and eyes, and already has a lofty vision pattern of letting everything go.

Therefore, the rumors about Su Xian's memorial are just a curious joke at best.

After a while, everyone returned to their own circles, talking and laughing.

Su Xian fell behind...

As if alienated from everyone.

However, Su Xian didn't pay much attention to this scene, because he was still sketching out today's action plan in his mind.

But he also noticed that there were a few eyes in front of him from time to time, and they came to look at him several times...

There is contempt, teasing, and curiosity, but most of them are overlooking and exploring from above.

Just when Su Xian regained his mind.

Sudden……

"Su Xian!"

"Su Xian!"

At this moment...

On the arched stone bridge that he could see, a little man sitting on shoulders as strong as a hill was waving happily to him.

Everyone looked up!

But they were all shocked.

That is...Qin King Zhu Xi, Jin King Zhu Xi, Yan King Zhu Di...

At a glance.

All the princes gathered.

The emperor's grandson sat on the leader's shoulders...

The milky voice attracted all the noble disciples and heirs in front of Su Xian.

The steps stopped and the expression was shocked!
  Then they all looked back...

　There are a lot of characters in this chapter. I originally wrote more than 5,000 words, but I deleted some because it seemed too much.

　　The protagonist needs these characters to pave the way for entering the palace.

　　I will revise the next chapter and post it immediately
