In the Ming Dynasty, the ministers called the emperor long live, or Your Majesty!

Call the prince, the princes, or His Highness!

However, in the palace, those close servants who are highly favored call the emperor the master and the prince the young master!

Xue Yu's subtext is: "I am the emperor's close servant. I came to Luoyang to meet King Fu in accordance with the will of Emperor Wanli, and I have the will to convey it."

Wang Youshijiu worked in the royal palace, so he naturally understood these rules and hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"Unknown old man Yu is here, and the officials are in trouble and are here to welcome him. I will forgive my crime in person!"

"Ahem, just call me Lord Yu. This time I went out of the palace under the secret order, so it is not advisable to expose my identity!"

"Yes, Lord Yu!"

With a sound of Yu, Xue Yu heard the cold wind gusts under his crotch, and he had goose bumps all over his body. He quickly found an excuse to correct him.

Wang Youshi immediately changed his name, but he was still quite confused:

One thing is, there are countless servants in the palace, why did such a little guy come here? It seems that he is only sixteen or seventeen years old!

Second, since I arrived in Luoyang, why didn’t I go directly to Prince Fu’s Mansion and hide in the Kuaihuo Building instead?

Xue Yu was so smart that he immediately saw the other party’s doubts and had already thought of an excuse:

"I have been studying in the inner study room. Because of my hard work and excellent grades, I was appreciated by my master. In addition to the cultivation of the prince, I was promoted and reused and took on this job!

Before leaving the palace, the master gave an order not to make a big fuss and must act secretly, so he did not dare to go directly to the palace. He hid in this happy building first, and then looked for an opportunity to meet the master!

Today I was idle and played a few small cards. But I met a playboy with a bad gambling product. I was furious and gave me a small lesson!

Unexpectedly, this little thing attracted Wang Youshi instead, which was a blessing in disguise, haha!"

...

During the reign of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty, the experience of the disaster of eunuchs in the late Yuan Dynasty was learned, so he made a rule that "the internal ministers are not allowed to read and read" and even more that eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the government.

Later, King Zhu Di of Yan launched the "Jingnan Campaign", which received more assistance and support from eunuchs in the palace. Therefore, after gaining the world, the status of eunuchs was also improved, and they gradually participated in national affairs. The most famous one was Zheng He's seven voyages to the West!

By the time of Emperor Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty, the strength of civil servants gradually became stronger. In order to balance the court and strengthen the imperial power, an inner study room was opened in the palace to teach some clever and clever eunuchs to read and read, thereby cultivating talents!

In the history of the Ming Dynasty, famous eunuchs, such as Liu Jin, Feng Bao, Wang Zhi, Liang Fang, etc., all studied in the Nei Study Room, and even formed the rule that those who were not from Nei Study Room were not allowed to hold the seal, hold the pen, and carry the eunuchs!

Eunuch Wang refers to the eunuch who is now the seal-holding eunuch, Wang An, the first eunuch and a big celebrity in front of Emperor Wanli, who is deeply loved!

It is reasonable for a young servant from the inner study to be favored by the emperor because of his cleverness and intelligence, and to be promoted by the eunuch in charge of seals to leave the palace to serve as an envoy.

"Mr. Yu actually came from the inner study room, and he will definitely have a bright future in the future. I am so respectful!"

After clarifying the whole story, Wang Youshi's doubts disappeared, and he respected Xue Yu more, and even felt a little pleasing.

During the Wanli period, the inner court was huge and claimed to have "9,000 palace maids and 100,000 eunuchs". Among them, there were usually no more than a hundred people who had the opportunity to study in the inner study room. The difficulty was so high that it was no less than the imperial examination!

Those who are qualified to be selected are all the best people with quick minds and extremely smartness!

The Lord Yu in front of me, although he is not old, is calm and steady, with extraordinary temperament, and has a sense of sinisterness. After decades, he may be another powerful Liu Jin and Wang Zhi!

Wang Youshi naturally has to please such a person, so that it will be of great benefit to the Fu Palace in the future.

"Youshi Wang, don't be polite. Please arrange it quickly and let me secretly enter the palace, meet with me, and convey the will!

I must keep the whereabouts of this commander confidential. Please restrain your guards and don’t talk nonsense. As for other people in the palace, try not to be alarmed. In short, the fewer people you know, the better, do you understand?"

...

"The official understands, let's make arrangements now. Please wait here!"

Wang Changshi nodded repeatedly and led the guards away.

By the way, he also took Huang Toad away, for fear that he would provoke Lord Yu again and cause trouble for Prince Fu's mansion!

...

"Huh! Huh!"

"I'm scared!"

"Ancestor, I can't breathe!"

After confirming that Wang Youshi was away, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Xue Yu and the monk Wuyan could still remain calm. Everyone else kept patting their chests, and their hearts were almost nervously jumping out. Several of them collapsed on the ground!

Anyone who pretends to be the emperor's envoy and the Jinyiwei will feel scared of such a thing!

Fortunately, Xue Yu has first-class acting skills and agile enough, and finally passed the test smoothly!

Next, everyone stopped talking and started eating, eating without leaving any leftover bird's nest mat, and even drinking the soup!

Because everyone knows that entering the Fu Palace this time is like entering the dragon and tiger den. You are lucky and can still get out. If you are not lucky, this bird's nest cube may be the last meal in your life. Of course, you have to eat it hard, and at least be a full devil!

...

Wang Youshi was very efficient, and when he was in the long light, he returned to the Happy Building!

"Sir Yu, everything is arranged. Please follow me to enter the palace!"

"Okay, lead the way!"

The group went downstairs and did not walk through the main entrance. Instead, under the cover of night, sneaked out of the back door, and then walked around several alleys and headed straight to the back door of the Fu Palace!

As for the expenses of food and accommodation in Kuaihuo Building, all the orders were exempted, which saved Xue Yu a lot!

"Who?"

"It's me!"

"I've met Lord Changshi!"

"Open the door!"

After entering the back door, there was the garden of the royal palace. Wang Youshi led his group to a small courtyard, placed the mouse, monkey and others, and asked the servants to prepare meals and take good care of them!

Then he led Xue Yu, Wu Yan, Zhang Xiaoqi and the other two to meet King Fu - Zhu Changxun!

Taking this opportunity, Xue Yu and others looked at Prince Fu's Mansion carefully!

As night fell, lanterns were lit in the palace, as many as the stars in the sky, illuminating every corner, and the air was filled with a strong fragrance!

The people of the Ming Dynasty basically worked from sunrise to sunset, because they could not afford lighting equipment at night. When they really encountered urgent matters, they could only light a torch to light it!

For wealthy families, they use oil lamps to illuminate at night, and only wealthy families can use candles, while for Fuwang Mansion, they use ambergris candles!

It is to fill the special candle with ambergris and brain-calming smears. After ignition, it will emit a gentle fragrance and refresh the mind. However, the cost is quite high. A ambergris candle costs more than four cents of silver!

In the Fu Palace, thousands of candles are consumed in one night, and the silver is about four or five hundred taels, more than ten thousand taels a month, and more than ten thousand taels a year!

This is just a lighting expense, and as for other expenses in the royal palace, it is even more an astronomical figure!

While walking, a group of people appeared in front of them, four servants in green clothes, carrying a fragrant roasted deer. A small piece was cut from the deer's breasts, and the rest were intact!

There were two followers behind, who worked together to hold a person, covered with whip marks, their clothes and flesh were shattered, and blood kept dripping. People didn't know whether they were dead or alive!

Behind them are dozens of maids, everyone is carrying food boxes!

"Sir Changshi!"

"Well, what happened?"

"Tonight, the prince and Huang Fei want to eat roasted venison. This guy was clumsy and grilled the venison. When the prince got angry, he gave him a hundred whip and ordered the kitchen to remake it!"

"Immediately notify the Chief Secretary to recruit a few good cooks at a high price, and then ask the manor outside the city to pay dozens of fat male deer!"

"yes!"

Just as the conversation was over, another group of servants carried several huge buckets of water, and the roasted deer that had only cut a knife and threw it in!

Then the maids opened the food box, took out plates of dishes, and poured them into the bucket. From their expressions, they often did the same thing before!

And with the light, you can see clearly that those delicious dishes have never been moved before and are discarded!

This is the rule of the Fu Prince's Mansion: no matter how much the prince or princess's food is left, they will be thrown away and buried, and no one else is allowed to touch a chopstick, otherwise they will be severely punished!

Because the prince and princess’ food is not worthy of eating, and the rest is not enough!

"It made Lord Yu laugh. My Qiansui Master likes to eat venison, so there are thousands of sika deer in the manor of the royal palace. Unfortunately, there are no good chefs in the royal palace. The roasted venison is always not as good as my Qiansui!"

"Haha, it's nothing. After I return to the capital, I will report to the master and assign a few good-skilled imperial chefs to you!"

"So, thank you Lord Yu!"

"You're welcome!"

Xue Yu was silent and chatting with Wang Youshi, but he thought of two ancient poems in his mind: The rich family smells of wine and meat, and the road is frozen to death!

Henan suffered a severe drought and there was no harvest. The people could only feed on grassroots and tree bark. There was even a tragedy of people eating people, and countless people starved to death!

King Fu Zhu Changxun and his family lived such a luxurious life of luxury, wasting vaguely and treated human life as if it were a joke!

In their hearts, never thought about the country, the people, and how could they have a little mercy and kindness?

If this continues, it would be strange if the people do not rebel!
