Ming Taizi's Total War

Chapter 20

"By the way, Li Wenkui, you and Li Jin go to buy a few men and women servants. There is no one in the prince's mansion. Be careful not to have too many, just a few." Zhu Cihong specially instructed.

Wang Fuen's words just now alerted him. In this era, everyone seems to think that the royal family must use the best and eat the best. Everyone has to revolve around the life of the royal family. He doesn't know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

"By the way, there are furniture and other things. You can arrange them yourself, and then invite some craftsmen to come over and turn the open space behind the mansion into a barracks for me, and remodel the garden for me."

The garden behind the mansion had not been taken care of for a long time and had long since become a wasteland, so it was not heartbreaking for Zhu Cixi to renovate it.

"Okay, let's all disperse. I'm tired from the long journey." After Zhu Cixiang finished speaking, he was about to send everyone away.

"Yes." Everyone said in unison.

Back at the mansion, Zhu Cihong hastily found a place to sleep. He was really tired. Today he got off the boat first and then got on the sedan. He met a group of unknown people again and walked around the Prince's Mansion. He had already noticed it. There was a fight.

Lying on a newly moved bed, covered with a slippery brocade quilt, Zhu Cixiang fell asleep immediately, and did not wake up until dusk when the sun set.

"Ah, I'm so hungry." Zhu Cixiang was still growing and was getting hungry quickly, not to mention that he fell asleep before having time to eat at noon.

"Prince, you're awake." Liu Bao stood outside. When he heard the movement inside, he opened the door and walked in.

Zhu Cihong was not surprised by his sudden appearance, he was already used to Liu Bao's presence on the way south, and this little eunuch was almost like his own shadow.

Liu Bao just vaguely heard Zhu Cixiang saying he was hungry, so he asked, "Your Majesty, are you hungry? What do you want to eat? I will ask the kitchen to cook it for you."

The small kitchen Liu Bao refers to means the kitchen dedicated to serving Zhu Cixiang alone. They use a small pot and a small stove to light a fire and cook quickly. At various times of the day, whether Zhu Cixiang eats or not, he will make some food and prepare it. In this way It can ensure that Zhu Cixi can eat immediately whenever he wants to eat.

"Okay, let's have a bowl of egg noodles." Zhu Cixiang said.

He had just woken up and had no appetite, so he wanted to eat something light to fill his stomach.

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Bao went out to inform the kitchen, and then Zhu Cixi also walked out of the room and came to the yard.

While Zhu Cihong was talking to Liu Bao, it was already completely dark. He stood in the middle of the yard and saw colorful and beautiful fireworks blooming in the sky in the distance. At that moment, he felt like it was a peaceful and prosperous age.

Zhu Cixiang saw a maid carrying a lantern coming from the nearby corridor and asked him, "Do you know where the fireworks are?"

The maid didn't expect that Zhu Cixi would call him, so she quickly put down the lantern in her hand, and then nervously saluted him and said, "My servant, see His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness is a thousand years old."

"Don't talk so much nonsense. Who taught you this? Answer my question first." Zhu Cixiang didn't expect that the palace maid would come up and give him a set of polite words like those in a TV series.

"Back to Your Highness, the elder sisters who came out of the palace taught me." When she said this, Zhu Cihuang knew that it was the maids who served Changping Princess Aimee Zhu.

"Over there, I don't even know where that is." After hearing this sentence, Zhu Cihong realized that this maid was bought in Linqing back then, and just came to Jinling today just like himself.

"It's been a waste of time to talk about feelings for a long time." Zhu Cilang suddenly felt a little speechless.

"What did you say?" the maid asked.

"Oh, it's nothing, you can go about your business." Zhu Cihong waved her hand and asked her to back down.

But something unexpected happened. The maid did not listen to Zhu Cixiang's words. Instead, she stood where she was and asked Zhu Cixiang, "Your Highness, the princess woke up today and asked where the emperor and empress were. She said she wanted to go back to the palace and didn't want to stay here."

"The servants don't know what to say, I want to ask you, but Eunuch Liu said that you have fallen asleep and dare not disturb you."

Zhu Cixiang slapped his head and then remembered that he had a 15-year-old sister.

"Okay, I understand. You go back and tell the princess that it is getting late today and it is not suitable for the emperor to go to her. I will go to see her tomorrow. By the way, what is your name?"

Zhu Cihong is sixteen years old, and Auntie Zhu is fifteen. In modern times, she is a lady and a lolita, but in ancient times, she was almost old enough to get married.

Out of the face of the royal family, and because he was afraid of being gossiped, saying that as a royal person, he didn't talk about any rules, Zhu Cihong didn't plan to see Auntie Zhu at night.

"My name is Xiaohong." She replied.

"Prince, the noodles are here. Do you want to eat them here or go to the inner room?" Liu Bao suddenly came over with a cook. The cook was holding a wooden plate with a white enamel bowl with gold threads on it. It contained the egg noodles that Zhu Cixi had just eaten.

Seeing Liu Bao coming, Zhu Cihong waved his hand and let Xiao Hong go.

Zhu Cixiang did not say where to eat, but first asked Liu Bao, "Do you know where the fireworks in the distance were set off?"

Liu Bao looked up, only to find that there were fireworks in the distant sky. He was busy all the way to the small kitchen before, and it was too busy to come here again.

"Prince, I heard that the most prosperous place in Jinling City is the Qinhuai River. These must be the fireworks set off by the Qinhuai River." Liu Bao guessed. He actually didn't know, but Zhu Cihong had to tell him if he asked. Order something.

Qinhuai River, that's a good place. Fireworks place, Jinjin Grotto, ten mile Qinhuai River, the most prosperous place in Jinling City, I don't know where it went. With my handsome appearance, will there be a bunch of beauties?Zhu Cihong thought to herself.

"Qinhuai River, that's a good place, you can go shopping with me." Zhu Cihong felt that it's just nightfall today, and it's still early, so it's better to go to Qinhuai River to see and see.

In his last life, he had never even been to the legendary business KTV that could be called a princess. If he never went there again in this life, then this man's role would be too incomplete.

But Zhu Cixiang really thought of asking the eunuch to accompany him to the fireworks place.

Liu Bao subconsciously agreed to Zhu Cihong, "Yes, Crown Prince."

When he came back to his senses, he found that Zhu Cixi was going to that kind of place, so he persuaded him, "Prince, that's not a good place, so don't go there."

"Isn't it too disrespectful for you to go there before the late emperor's body has been buried? If word spreads, it's fine."

Liu Bao is worthy of being a loyal servant. At this time, he still thinks of damaging Zhu Cixiang and the reputation of the Ming Dynasty.
