There was a lot of activity in the front hall of the Prince of Yan's mansion, when a eunuch came over. He had a round, short face, high cheekbones, and was not very good-looking, but almost no one in the mansion dared to look down on him, because he was Zheng He, who had blocked arrows for the emperor in the Battle of Zhengcunba!
Ji Gang and other Jinyiwei soldiers wore lavender round-necked robes and square scarves on their heads, dressed like ordinary followers.
"Greetings, Eunuch Zheng." Ji Gang clasped his fists.
Zheng He also bowed slightly in return, and walked past the two rows of big men, looking at them one by one. Ji Gang said, "Eunuch Zheng, I have checked the ancestors of these people for eighteen generations! They are strong and have martial arts skills."
After hearing this, Zheng He said in a deep voice, "The emperor has just ascended the throne, and the rebels are still there. You must be cautious and not let them take advantage of the s
From the old temple on the hillside, the sound of "Hahaha..." could be heard from time to time, but there was no one around, and the laughter suddenly seemed very strange and scary.Qu Neng leaned his back against the mountain wall and walked quietly to the door. Qu Liangcai immediately followed him and bent down to pick up a stone.Qu Neng quickly poked out one eye and took a look, and saw several people inside. Two women were huddled in the corner; there were about five men sitting in front of a fire, drinking wine, with gold and silver bars scattered all over the floor."I'll go in first, Liangcai, protect my back." Qu Neng turned around and whispered, and Qu Liangcai nodded. The eunuch Wang Gui didn't know martial arts, so he hid behind and looked around without making any sound.As soon as he finished speaking, Qu Neng had already jumped out. The men were still sitting on the ground. Qu Neng rushed over, but his fists couldn't reach them, so he ki
The mighty procession of infantry, cavalry, and ceremonial guards marched southward, and the emperor was in a four-horse carriage, busy as he traveled. Zhu Di had only been on the throne for a month, and was already very tired from the countless memorials and speeches, the forces from all over the country, and the various people he had to deal with.There was no smile on his face, as if becoming emperor was not as joyful as he had imagined...After a large number of troops arrived in the capital, Zhu Gaoxu received an oral order from the emperor to move to the mansion where the Prince of Yan used to live, which was the house where the brothers lived when they were imprisoned in the capital in the early years of Jianwen. This was the idea of Princess Xu, who said that Gaoxu was going to get married and many people had just died in Lianying's mansion, so it was unlucky to live there.However, there were already some slaves and maids guarding the Prince of Yan'
"Sha, sha, sha..." There was a noise coming from the study in the Jing Mansion, which could be heard if you got close.Miao Jin walked to the door of the study, pushed it open and went in, and saw Jing Qing sharpening a dagger! Jing Qing turned around, glanced at Miao Jin, and continued sharpening the dagger without saying a word.Miao Jin turned pale. When she saw the weapon her father was holding, she concluded that her father had no chance at all! This matter would only be a waste of life.This is not Jing Qing's fault. Jing Qing was a Jinshi, and he could write articles and be an official. It was difficult for him, a scholar, to be an assassin. For example, in Beijing, Jing Qing asked Miao Jin to plot an assassination, but none of the plots worked, let alone asking him to do it himself.After Jing Qing had sharpened the knife, he tried on his official uniform. Holding the dagger, he busied himself looking for a place to hide it, sometimes putting i
The rainstorm subsided after a while. On Zhongshan Mountain, a dirty Pekingese dog emerged from the woods and shook off the rain. It walked to a cliff where clear water was flowing, tilted its head, stretched out its tongue and drank the water quickly, then shook its wet fur.Not far away there is a small temple. After a heavy rain, rainwater is flowing down from the eaves along the tiled roof, hitting the puddles on the ground, splashing white water.Miao Jin's voice said, "I'm soaked all over. I'm afraid of being caught. How can I get down the mountain?"Zhu Gaoxu took out a tinder stick from his pocket. It was already soaked, so he threw it aside. Then he took out a flint and a flint stone. Miao Jin was surprised to see this and asked, "You brought this thing with you?""I went out to do errands today and brought some belongings with me." Zhu Gaoxu nodded and went to the corner to grab a handful of thatch. He also collected broken wood on the messy
Miaojin sat in front of the dressing table, dressed herself up, and then stared at the white silk hair on the table.She thought about the scene in Zhongshan yesterday, and her cheeks and ears felt hot again. At that time, I was so confused that I didn't feel any pain, but I still feel burning pain after that. I had never thought that I would commit myself to someone like this. I always thought that chastity was more important than life. This is indeed a bit hasty, but if you are still reserved and don't give it to him yesterday, what's the point of keeping it and going to hell?At this moment, she was even more nostalgic for the world, with tears hanging from the corners of her eyes. But the rumors around her really frightened her, about being guarded by more than 20 men every day, and about being paraded through the streets naked. It's really better to die than suffer such torture and humiliation!Miaojin thought for a moment, the Jing family must be worse
When Xu Huizu heard about Jing Qing's assassination at home, he remembered: He had seen that dwarf named Fang Zhongyi before!Previously, Xu Huizu went to make friends with the Confucian scholar Fang Xiaoru in order to be able to lead the army in battle. Fang Xiaoru retreated, leaving only one dwarf behind. He also introduced the origin of the dwarf Fang Zhongyi, who was the assassin!At this time, Xu Huizu couldn't help but sigh, "All the princes in the court are not as knowledgeable about justice as a dwarf!""Please be careful with your words." The person who came to report the news reminded in a low voice.Xu Huizu sneered. He was not afraid at all. As soon as the capital was captured, someone wanted to arrest him. He took out the iron plate of immunity from death given by Taizu and said that he was a descendant of a founding hero. Even the Jinyiwei dared not touch him!Now all Yan Ni can do is lock him up in his house and try to strip him of
The garlic flavor dispels the fishy smell of oysters, which is very fresh and delicious. Paired with the refreshing rice wine, it is really refreshing. You don't have to wolf it down, just taste it slowly bit by bit. You won't feel sick of it even if you eat it for a long time.Of course, it still depends on who you eat with, which is the most important thing.In a quiet house in the downtown, behind the elegant and sparse bamboo curtains, Du Qianrui played the pipa with a slow rhythm, which was crisp and beautiful. In the intervals between Zhu Gaoxu's conversation with Wang Zhenliang, he ate a bite of oysters, tasted a sip of rice wine, and then listened to the pipa music for a while, never feeling bored for a moment.He picked up the thin-necked wine jug and poured wine, admiring the beauty looming behind the bamboo curtain, and couldn't help saying, "Life is just a process. Even if we have things to do, we don't have to make the process so boring."
On both sides of the Imperial Street in Hongwu Gate, there are all the central government offices, the five military governors' offices, the Jinyiwei, the Taichang Temple, and the six ministries, etc. Walking near Hongwu Gate at twilight hour, if you just throw a basin of foot washing water, the official you splash will be a third or fifth rank official.At this time, a cavalry came out from the Hongwu Gate, with bright red cloaks like clouds, protecting a military officer wearing a red round collar and a black gauze hat in the middle. It was quite a grand spectacle.The rank of that military officer was not high, just the third rank. The rank of military officers in the Ming Dynasty was generally high, and the military officers in the capital were often the first or second rank. This third rank officer was really ordinary... But no one dared to mess with him, because he was Ji Gang, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!At the end of the Hongwu re
The sky gradually darkened and the lights came on. Gao Xu held Miao Jin's hand and followed the crowd into the concert hall.People were all dressed up, especially women, who were all dressed up. Some wore traditional clothes such as ruqun or aoqun, while others were dressed in modern fashion. Each figure seemed to be wandering between the classical and the modern.Among them there are many foreigners, probably all of whom came to Taicang to attend international conferences.In terms of fun, people might prefer to watch a movie rather than enjoy such pure music. However, there were still many listeners tonight, and the auditorium gradually filled up.Perhaps some of them value the rarity of concerts and do not attend them often, while others simply value their style.Gao Xu's main happiness comes from Miao Jin's company. Imagine if he came alone or with someone unrelated, his feelings would be much worse. He is willing to be with Miao Jin and exp
There were long commercials playing on TV, but no one changed the channel.Miao Jin was doing chores and preparing ingredients for lunch. Gao Xu began to check his various instruments, which were all measuring tools he had collected a while ago.There is a ray detector, which, according to the manual, can detect radiation, including ultraviolet light, laser and other electromagnetic waves. There is a torsion balance experimental device, which can measure the gravitational constant. And an air measuring instrument.There were also some uncommon small devices. In short, except for the large instruments that were difficult to carry, he tried his best to buy all the instruments that could test general constants.Miao Jin would occasionally look over here curiously, but before she asked, she might have guessed what Gao Xu was going to do.Gao Xu would tell her clearly as long as she asked. Because when he was going to look for the cave in Huangshan, h
Gao Xu usually doesn't like watching TV. But today, when Miao Jin was watching TV in the living room, he was gradually attracted by the TV program, so he stopped what he was doing and sat next to Miao Jin.There was a studio on the TV screen, with two hosts, a man and a woman, talking about the animation "Zootopia" like a crosstalk. It was neither news nor entertainment, but a show that mocked reality.Miao Jin saw Gao Xu sitting over and said, "This TV station should be more inclined to the left-wing viewpoint."Gao Xu asked, "Why haven't I heard of the distinction between left and right wings?"Miao Jin said, "It is originally an imported product. That is how foreigners describe Ming Dynasty politics. There is no clear distinction between left and right in China. So we generally don't use such words. It is normal that we don't hear them normally."She glanced at Gao Xu and continued, "This classification first appeared in the parliament during
Gao Xu's drama project has less than half the investment of the animation project, with a total investment of about 40 million yen for 15 episodes; the profit expectations are also completely incomparable to those of animated films. As Wang Siqi and most people believe, the fastest way to make money is still the movie box office.But Gao Xu has invested more energy in costume dramas.The crew built a filming site in the Western Regions. From 509 to the first half of 510, a production period of less than a year, Gao Xu flew twice to personally observe the filming site. His subordinate Sun Jing also stayed in the Western Regions for a long time, passing various information back to Taicang.A large media company in Taicang has signed an exclusive premiere agreement with Dream Incubation Studio.The terms are a bit complicated, but the key is to adopt a cooperation model with floating copyright fees. When the series is almost finished, a pay TV station und
The glass window on the outer wall is located in the east direction, so the sunlight cannot enter the studio in the afternoon. Therefore, Gao Xu often has a slight illusion that it seems to be later than the actual time.At this moment, the phone in his coat pocket rang. Gao Xu's phone rarely received calls because he had set the Do Not Disturb function, so no calls could be received from numbers that were not saved. He took it out and saw that it was a person who he did not contact often but had saved the number a long time ago, Sun Jing.Gao Xu stood up from his desk, walked to the corner by the glass window, glanced at Wang Cheng not far away, and answered the phone.Sun Jing's voice asked, "Are you still busy with work?"Gao Xu said, "Yes, I am working on two projects at the same time, so I am a little busy. How is Mr. Sun doing recently?"Sun Jing, "Very boring. I don't have to go to work, but I've been idle for so long that I feel like I'm
This was the second time Gao Xu and Xiao Yu had a meal together. Last time they were at the company cafeteria, and today they were at a roadside fast food restaurant.After finishing work at the agency, Gao Xu drove off the main road and found a parking space. Then he randomly found a restaurant where he could eat and walked in with Xiao Yu.It was very lively inside, with all kinds of customers, including well-dressed office workers and some homely citizens, men, women, young and old, making a big noise in the room, mixed with the loud shouts of the shop assistants passing on information. Although the air conditioner was on, the shop was open and there were many people, so it was still very hot inside.There were several dishes to choose from, all of which were simple and convenient. Gao Xu and Xiao Yu gave up on the braised pork intestines with radish, and roast duck was too greasy, so they chose roast chicken.The roasted chicken skin was cut into p
After many twists and turns, Gao Xu finally contacted the director named Ma Xuan.Ma Xuan has an account on the Internet where he posts some career news. Gao Xu's assistant Yu Ni left messages and sent messages, but it took several days for her to get a response. Gao Xu came to the hall and looked through the information records on Yu Ni's computer."He doesn't seem very proactive." Yu Ni said.Gao Xu said , "You claim to be the assistant of the investor of "Dream Seekers", but he may not believe you. If our studio also has such a certified account, it may save some trouble."At this time, Shidai Heng walked by and greeted him, "Mr. Liu."Gao Xu nodded and said, "We are trying to contact Ma Xuan, the director you recommended."Dai Heng came over and said, "He should have received a lot of similar messages. And there is indeed some false information on the Internet. For the purpose of advertising, people may lie about their identities, which
The people who work here, including Dai Heng who has only been here a few days, seem to have gotten used to the environment.The studio was in good condition. The morning sun shone in through the French windows, and the room was clean and tidy. In addition to the solid wood desk and bookshelf, and a full range of domestic electrical appliances (Made in China products are more expensive), there were also comfortable leather chairs.Gao Xu was in Xiao Deng's office at the moment, sitting on one of the leather chairs, holding a tablet and reading the text he had just copied from Xiao Deng's computer. Of course, he couldn't help but listen to the sound of her keyboard at the same time.He put down the tablet, picked up the cup next to him, and found it was empty. So he stood up and walked to the water dispenser, filled up half a cup of hot water, then took a tea bag and put it in the cup to soak for more than ten seconds, then took it out and put it next to him.
The next screenwriter who came to the studio for an interview was named Dai Heng, who should be a relatively unknown person.Gao Xu looked out from the glass wall and when he saw Dai Heng, he immediately guessed that this person was probably not married yet. Dai Heng was wearing a brand new suit, a white shirt with a small cross collar, and a pair of casual leather shoes that didn't match. The most unpleasant thing about Dai Heng was his long hair, but unlike the image of Ekin Cheng, Gao Xu felt at first glance that Dai Heng was not suitable for that hairstyle. Some hairstyles look good, but they are picky about the face.But these are not problems. Now that the people have arrived, Gao Xu needs to get to know them a little bit.Gao Xu pressed the phone on the desk, "Xiao Yu, ask him to come to the office to meet.""Okay." Xiao Yu said into the phone outside, his voice coming from the desk inside.Dai Heng came in from the door with a bag on his
