Chapter VIII Relocation
The eleventh prince Feng Wuxi is already eighteen years old this year. Although he has not yet performed the title, he has been awarded the title of Prince Ning. Compared to other princes who were promoted to the position of office, his situation is much better than that of other princes. In addition, the emperor has not sent him out of the capital so far, in the eyes of court officials, Prince Ning is undoubtedly a hot figure.
Unfortunately, Concubine Yu loved her son very much. Since she had asked for the emperor's grace before, she still kept her in Tingfeng Pavilion until now. Even the eunuchs who served were carefully selected. As for the palace maids in the warm mat, they were the kind of gentle and beautiful woman he chose. Concubine Yu devoted too much hope and effort to Feng Wuxi, and never hoped that a woman who charmed the Lord would take away her son's heart.
However, a few days ago, the emperor had a very slight remark about Feng Wuxi staying in the palace, so Concubine Yu had to ask his brother to find a good mansion in the capital, and then asked the emperor to give it to him when he had time. His closest nephew wanted to open a mansion and give it to him, so Xiao Yunchao was particularly concerned. From the escort of the general manager to the ordinary maids and servants, he personally prepared everything. Therefore, in less than half a month, he went to the palace to report everything to the girl. This extraordinary speed of doing things also surprised Concubine Yu.
Therefore, while someone had notified the emperor this day, Xiao asked his son to wait in Lingbo Palace in advance, so he could do the matter. She knew that her son had been living in the palace for a long time and was used to it, so she didn't dare to let go at will. Now she couldn't help but feel regretful when she thinks about it. If she had allowed her son to be independent as soon as possible, she should have made merits early. By then, no one would dare to say anything when the emperor was appointed as the crown prince. She was smart for a lifetime, but she could not forget the loving mother's defeat of her son. She was really confused. However, when she saw the figure of the emperor from afar, Concubine Yu immediately gave up the thoughts in her heart and greeted her with her son.
"I welcome the priest!" Xiao Yingying bowed, and Feng Wuxi, who was behind him, also knelt down and bowed at the same time, "I wish my father good health and prosperity."
"Wuxi is here too?" The emperor was a little surprised. When he was in Lingbo Palace, Xiao always sent his son away. Today he made an exception, but it was strange. Is this beloved concubine a little bit? The emperor couldn't help but smile, "Okay, you all get up. Is it rare that you call Wuxi together. Why? Do you want to reunite today?"
"The emperor is teasing me again." Xiao said coquettishly. Although she is already past the most beautiful age of a woman, her charm is still as good as that of the past. In addition, she has always been well maintained. Therefore, both her figure and skin still show a ecstasy feeling. "I dared to bring Wuxi here without asking for an order, just for a major event that the emperor is also worried about."
"Oh?" The emperor remembered the previous report of the spy and couldn't help but smile. He naturally wouldn't have mistook his beloved concubine's face. "I have guessed it, but it's not reasonable to talk outside like this. I'd better go in first."
Xiao then relieved himself of anxiety, and quickly turned sideways to the emperor to the palace, while winking at his son, indicating that he would be smarter later. However, there were stacks of pleasing words: "I can't hide my little thoughts from the emperor. I really can't hide anything. No wonder the court officials praise the emperor's wiseness! I'll teach you this trick to understand the situation tomorrow, so as not to be criticized when I punish you."
"Those wise and wise words are all flattering words, but how many words are true?" The emperor sat down in his seat and replied happily, "But the beloved concubine is becoming more and more aware of speaking. I have been so enchanted by you. Are you still embarrassed to reject your request later? Tell me, which mansion did you choose for Wuxi?"
Concubine Yu was delighted and knew that today's affairs had become eighty percent. Then she stepped forward and reported carefully: "Your Majesty, you know that I have always kept Wuxi by my side and disciplined me, and I have not paid much attention to the house. Now that he is old and has been named the king, I naturally cannot force him to keep him in the palace for his own selfishness, and it should also let him share his worries for the emperor."
She said while glanced at the emperor's face, and then continued to say, "Now the royal palaces in the capital are more luxurious and luxurious. I think Wuxi doesn't have to compare with this gust of wind. Therefore, except for the rules of the etiquette, there is no need to pay too much attention to the other people. There is also an empty royal palace outside Chaohua Gate. Although it was a little declining, it can be used as a little renovation. I have asked my brother to go to see the place, and he replied that it is still neat, so I want to ask the emperor to give this mansion, so it is more convenient for Wuxi to enter the palace in the future."
The emperor was really surprised. He stared at Xiao's face for a while, and after he was convinced that this beloved concubine was not a joke, he began to think carefully. The mansion was lived in by Feng Huanyu, who was a bad thing back then. Therefore, in order to avoid taboos, all the princes who were crowned kings deliberately avoided that place. However, Xiao also said it well. It is better to divide it up with a dignified royal palace, which is not as good as the one that has been abandoned. Besides, although it is already a bit dilapidated, the regulations back then are grand, and it is worthy of Feng Wuxi's identity, and it can also avoid the trouble of building a mansion again. The royal palace in the capital is now ineffective, and Xiao is still considerate.
"Well, I see this matter is feasible. I will ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to go and see it again. If it can be used, let them repair it as soon as possible, and Wuxi can move in." The emperor paused a little, and then asked again, "I heard that Xiao Yunchao has started to buy servants there. I just want to say one thing, be sure to find some reliable ones. There are too many people in the Beijing camp now. If you accidentally get involved in some unknown people, it will be difficult for Wuxi to call him in the future."
Xiao quickly gave his son a wink. Feng Wuxi was also well-behaved and immediately thanked him: "My son keeps the teachings of his father in mind. Thank you for your kindness!" He was also extremely excited. Although everyone respected them in the palace, they were too narrow-minded after all. From the bottom of his heart, he still envied the life outside even more. When he thought that he would not have to live under the protection of his mother in the future, he felt free and easy. Feng Wuhen, the brother of the same father and mother, could win the favor of his father and mother step by step by step by step by step by step by step by step by step by step.
The emperor sighed in his heart as he looked at his son whom he loved most since childhood. The reason why he agreed to the plea of Concubine Yu, Xiao, was to allow him to suffer less wind and rain. After all, Feng Wuhen was always sick and weak at that time. The imperial physician once reported that he could not live to twenty years old, so he did not want his beloved concubine to lose his last bit of blood. Now it seems that Feng Wuhen has overcome all obstacles and has gone through hardships, which is incomparable to the situation back then. Wuqing still needs to be more experienced. The emperor has already had an idea. After some things in the court are dealt with, it is time for him to take charge.
The news that Feng Wuxi was moving to the Ning County Prince's Mansion really caused a sensation, especially the new Prince's Mansion was abandoned before, which made the court officials discuss it for a while, and many people couldn't understand the true intentions of Xiao. Only a few old men who had experienced two dynasties, or important officials who still had an impression of that period, could still save the origin of the royal palace. It was the famous Rebel Palace in the court officials back then. Xiao was so bold that he could have such a bold idea to let his son move there and make the emperor nod and nod to recognize him.
Due to Feng Wuxi's identity, the idle men and those who are good at ease in the capital couldn't help but become active again. In the eyes of these people, if they could curry favor with the prince's mansion, they would not only have to worry about food and clothing in the future, but once the master ascended to the great treasure, even the servants would undoubtedly be able to ascend to heaven, and wealth would be indispensable. However, when they were excitedly asking for help, they immediately suffered a blow. The Ning County Prince's Mansion had already looked for all the servants, and the maids and servants in the inner courtyard had already been purchased. Now, taking advantage of the short-term renovation of the prince's mansion, all the men had moved in, and only the female family was waiting for the official relocation.
On the day when Feng Wuxi officially moved, the Ning County Prince's Mansion was extremely lively. There were various precious gifts given by the emperor and Concubine Yu, and then there were a group of princes and ministers who came to express their congratulations. Feng Wuxi was always asked by his mother in the past two years, and his etiquette was much more than that. Even when he saw officials who were not in harmony with him, his face was still full of smiles. After an hour, he felt that the smile on his face became more and more stiff. If there were not a few royal brothers who had not come, he would have been too lazy to deal with it.
"Eleventh brother, congratulations on opening the mansion for the first time. Now you are different from the past. We two brothers are probably going to retreat behind the scenes!" The third prince Feng Wuyan and the fourth prince Feng Wuhou came. These two princes who could hardly meet together on weekdays came together, which made other officials confused.
Feng Wuhou got closer and said to Feng Wuxi mysteriously: "On the 11th brother's happy day, I, as a brother, have nothing to do, I will give you two stunning beauties. I have already handed over to your supervisor, and I will ensure you are satisfied after enjoying it!" He let out a series of warm laughter, and Feng Wuxi's face turned red and cursed Feng Wuhou's prank in his heart.
Feng Wuhen came a little later. Originally, he went to the Ministry of Revenue to just support Yue Qianfan. However, since He Mobin entered the Ministry of Revenue, He Furong's power infiltration has never stopped. There have been many people coveting this fat place, so he had to hold the prince's airs and press it down there. After a while, it became a shield for the old fox Yue Qianfan. If Feng Wuxi had not moved in today, he would have rarely taken time. Fortunately, Fan Qingcheng prepared the gift in advance, otherwise he would have to come empty-handed. In order to avoid suspicion, he asked Yue Qianfan to take a step first, and he deliberately set off half an hour later, so he was the last group when he arrived at the palace.
