Chapter 296 Rules

"Does your right eye get disaster or money jump?"

Chen Ji sat in the main hall of Fengtai Station and subconsciously rubbed his right eyelid. Since he woke up in the morning, his right eyelid became restless and made people feel nervous.

Zhang Xia, opposite the Eight Immortals Table, was wearing a fiery red dress and explained with a smile: "There are many statements. According to the region, the right eye twitches from the north of the Yangtze River, and the right eye twitches from the south of the Yangtze River, and the right eye twitches from the wealth; according to the Taoist Yin and Yang theory, the left eye is responsible for yang, which is a great auspiciousness, and the right eye is responsible for yin, which is a great bad luck."

Chen Ji rubbed his right eyelid again and whispered: "That should be a disaster... Is anyone who hurt me in secret?"

When Xiaoman on his right hand heard this, he secretly stared at Liang not far away and whispered: "Young Master, it must be her!"

Zhang Xia said curiously: "Is it because of not having a good sleep? Let Xiaoman wet the veil later and apply it to your eyes with hot water."

Chen Ji put down his hand rubbing his eyes: "No, I won't jump in a while."

Zhang Zheng lay on the table and said powerlessly: "How long do we have to stay in Fengtai? Seeing the capital in sight, why did he suddenly stop?"

In 17 days, after they left Guyuan, they kept hiding their identities all the way. Only when they left Shanzhou, did everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

But just when everyone thought that the next step was the smooth flow, the prince stopped in Fengtai and stopped for three consecutive days.

No one knows why the prince arrived at the doorstep, but did not return to Beijing.

Zhang Xia suddenly whispered: "I guess, the prince doesn't want to return to Beijing in a mess."

Chen Ji looked at it, but Zhang Xia continued, "My father once said that the most difficult 'official position' in this world is the crown prince. Everyone thinks that he has a high status, but he has no real power. The emperor hopes that it will be successful and prevents changes. Fathers should guard against sons, sons should guard against fathers, brothers should guard against brothers, brothers should guard against brothers."

Zhang Zheng widened his eyes and his hair stood up: "Don't imitate your father's mouth, why do you speak without any restraint?"

"What are you afraid of when I tell Chen Ji?" Zhang Xia glared at him, and then looked at Chen Ji: "The most important thing in the road to fighting for the throne is first of all, the holy family, and the second is the clique. If there are too many cliques, you will be suspicious of Your Majesty, and if there are too few cliques, you will not be able to do it. The prince went to Guyuan this time to try to control the Hu family behind King Fu, but now the Hu family has not been able to grasp it. If he goes to Beijing in shame, he may have a noble family who will turn to King Fu."

Chen Ji sighed: "The road to fighting for the throne is like climbing to the sky with a single-plank bridge. If a mistake is done, it will be a disaster."

Zhang Zheng said strangely: "But the prince doesn't look sad. He still has the heart to go to Qingfeng Temple to burn incense and worship Emperor Wenchang."

At this moment, the sound of cars and horses sounded outside Fengtai Station, and the carriage stopped in front of Fengtai Station.

A young man wearing a green robe and round neck uniform served the left and right with diligent support, putting down a horse stool, and lifting the car curtain.

A middle-aged man wearing black veil, red robe and jade belt got out of the car and bowed politely to the post station: "Do you dare to ask if these are the Yulin Army?"

Let's stand up and say, "That's right."

Zhang Xia reminded him with a very fast speech: "The people from the inner court wear three-mountain hats but not python robes. They should be the fourth-rank official title; they can follow the green robe and flat scarf hats around them to serve. I think they are the admirals and eunuchs from which prison, but if they are in the Imperial Horse Prison, they should bring guards instead of small eunuchs; Shangshen Prison, Shangbao Prison, Seal and Strip Prison, Zhidian Prison, Shengong Prison, and Imperial Prison, all know that the prisoners will not come out to walk, and the Sili Prison have seen them... Well, it is Wang Chao, who is in charge of the imperial court, who is in charge of the imperial court. This person has always been unfair to the world and is the empress dowager."

After the words came, the middle-aged man outside the door said in a quiet voice: "The inner minister, the eunuch of the chief magistrate Wang Chao, please see His Royal Highness."

Xiaoman's eyes were shiny: "Sister Axia is so amazing."

"Admiral waited for a moment," Qi Jingjing ran upstairs quickly. After half a stick of incense, the prince walked downstairs with his clothes and whispered.

Wang Chao hurriedly stepped forward a few steps: "Your Highness hasn't seen him for several months, and he has lost so much weight?"

The prince asked with a smile, "I wonder what businessman did Admiral Wang come to Fengtai?"

Wang Chao smiled and said, "Your Highness, you don't know yet. Now all the teahouses in the capital are all your stories!"

The prince was puzzled: "Oh? What's the matter with the orphan?"

Wang Chao explained: "Seven days ago, the border troops arrived in a hurry to the capital city, and everyone knew that Guyuan was victorious. Someone asked the army there to buy Guyuan's story. Now, you commanded the Yulin Army to kill more than 600 people. Commander Li's killing of generals in front of the formation has become the hottest story of the teahouse in the capital. If the Storyteller did not tell this, the teahouse would have no guests. If the Storyteller told your story, the teahouse would be crowded."

The prince was surprised: "There is still this matter?"

Chen Ji suddenly realized that this scene was so familiar.

When he defeated the Buddhist son in Luhun Villa, Zhang Li wrote a storybook overnight and spread it to the whole country. The storyteller gave him 100 coins once, so as to suppress the momentum of the Buddhist sect and compete for believers.

No wonder the prince was not in a hurry to go to Beijing, but went to Qingfeng Temple to burn incense and worship Emperor Wenchang. It turned out that he had asked Daoting to help him build momentum.

At this time, Wang Chao smiled and said, "Your Highness, the people are now asking where you are and are looking forward to your return to Beijing. When you return to Beijing, the people will welcome you by crossing the road and paving the road with flowers. It's so lively."

The prince shook his head: "This is not good, it is suspected of disturbing the people."

Wang Chao laughed and said, "How can you disturb the people? It's too late for the people to be happy. Your Majesty also heard about this and announced that you will return to Beijing tomorrow, meet at You, and have dinner together. I came here to pick up Your Highness back to Beijing... By the way, there are also Lord Li Xuan and Li, Chen Ji, Chen family."

Chen Ji's heart moved.

The prince asked, "When will I leave? Will I leave now?"

Wang Chao replied with a smile: "No hurry, it is the top priority to enter the palace to meet the saint. The inner minister has many things to prepare. First, your highness, your appearance and crown are on the way to deliver it. Tomorrow, your hero will be full of heroic spirit, so that the people can see the style of the family. In addition, the Chen family is the first time to meet the saint, and there are many rules to teach him."

The prince nodded: "Okay, it depends on the arrangements of the Admiral of the King."

Wang Chao waved behind him: "Wang He, I have a few more words to tell Your Highness, I will park the car later, and you will teach the Chen family that you must not let the insult in front of the palace be misleading the future of the young hero."

The little eunuch with a green robe and round neck behind him hurriedly bowed and said, "Yes."

The prince led Wang Chao upstairs, Chen Ji looked at the environment in the main hall, and then said to Wang He: "Let's go upstairs and talk, the guest room is quieter."

Wang He smiled and said, "Young Master of the Chen family, please go back to your room first, and I will park the car and drive."

Chen Ji agreed: "Okay."

After saying that, he led Xiaoman, Zhang Zheng and Zhang Xia upstairs.

When Wang He led the carriage to the backyard, Liang got up and came to the backyard: "Old Master Wang He."

Wang He was stunned for a moment: "Who is madam?"

Liang took out a 200-pound silver from his sleeve and handed it to Wang He, and said with a smile: "I'm Chen Ji's mother. Now he has finally met the emperor. I hope my father-in-law will teach him the rules in the palace carefully and never make him lose his etiquette in front of the palace."

Wang He weighed the broken silver in his hand and smiled: "Don't worry, madam."

After Liang left, he whispered and stuffed the silver into his sleeves.

...

...

Wang He parked the carriage and went to Chenji's guest room. He stopped being polite when entering the door. He immediately said quickly: "When you come in tomorrow, you must wear dark clothes, not yellow, white, green, or red. You must not carry objects on your body. Then you enter from Xuanwu Gate and wait at Dongye Gate. Jiefanwei will search his body. You must not bring a sword, seal, or even a note of paper..."

Wang He was memorable in his words, but his speaking speed was so fast that it was almost impossible to hear clearly and could not remember it.

Xiaoman said unhappily: "What did you say you did so quickly?"

Wang He smiled and said, "This is a rule that can be heard by a piece of silver." He just needs to say it all. Can he remember it is the other party's business."

He said to himself: "Young Master of the Chen family, I have finished all the servants who should be said. You can write it down today and you must not delay major events tomorrow."

After saying that, he turned around and left. Xiaoman wanted to stop him, but was pulled by Zhang Xia.

When Wang He left, Xiaoman complained, "Why are there so many rules when entering the palace to meet the saint? And what's wrong with this little eunuch? It seems that he is deliberately targeting my son?"

Zhang Xia said calmly: "If these rules are not taught, even if you enter the palace and see Your Majesty, you will be very likely to be punished. When the late emperor was there, a poor student was brilliant and beautiful. Before the palace examination, the article was appreciated by the late emperor and had the appearance of the top scholar. However, when entering the palace examination, no one reminded him of the rituals. In the Dongye Gate, Jiefanwei found a note from his sleeve and was scolded out of the palace. There was also a poor student who was criticized by the court for his improper kneeling posture. Xiaoman, those people set these rules to be used to eat people."

Xiaoman was anxious: "What should I do? What if I miss my son's future..."
