Chapter 165: Shortcut to Mount Zhongnan
There are many government offices on both sides of the wide Qianbu Corridor. The Hanlin Academy is located behind the Qianbu Corridor and is one of the government offices closest to the Wumen Gate of the Imperial Palace in the imperial city.
Gao Xianning was on duty in this government office. He was a humble and easy-going person. Although most of his colleagues were Jinshi graduates, they soon became familiar with him.
In the Hanlin Academy, there was really no unlearned person among the people he interacted with, and the people he made friends with were all well-educated and well-mannered. His colleagues were very polite and elegant to each other. The environment was also good, and Gao Xianning soon felt that being an official here was quite good.
The capital therefore left a good impression on Gao Xianning.
There was only one colleague who looked down on Gao Xianning. Soon Gao Xianning heard a talkative colleague tell him: that person said behind hi

As Zhu Gaoxu and the eunuch walked to a row of double-eaved houses, they saw the eunuch Zheng He walking quickly towards them."Nice to meet you, Eunuch Zheng." Zhu Gaoxu was the first to greet.Zheng He glanced at the eunuch next to him, stepped forward and bowed, and said in a deep voice, "Empress Ma of Jianwen wanted to tie a rope to commit suicide. Fortunately, the palace maid discovered it early and called for help in time. Later, Ma wanted to see Prince Gaoyang, and the emperor allowed it and ordered me to come to you.""Why does Ma want to see me?" Zhu Gaoxu asked.Zheng He said, "Ma asked the palace maids where Wengui was. No one could answer at first, so she looked for an opportunity to commit suicide. Later, someone told her that Wengui was in Fengyang, but she didn't believe it and wanted to see King Gaoyang. Maybe because King Gaoyang saved her life, the person she trusted the most was you."Zhu Gaoxu glanced at the sun that was almos

Within a few days, all the heroes of "Jingnan" were rewarded for their merits, and many of them were granted the title of duke, marquis or uncle. Only the emperor's children have not yet been granted titles, and Zhu Gaoxu and others still hold the title of county king and princess.The prince is usually relatively idle and has no control over the civil and military affairs of the court. Unless summoned by the emperor, Zhu Gaoxu did not even have to go to daily court affairs. Most of the time, it can be said to be doing nothing....The Prince of Gaoyang County has not caused any trouble in the capital for several months, and has not heard of any murders. All the ministers are very lucky. Rumor has it that because of his lust, he has acquired a beautiful little nun, a brothel singer, a few snatched folk girls, and others. They spend all day in the house to show off their prostitution and have no time to caus

The day's business was coming to an end, and only the eunuchs and maids of each palace had to take turns to continue working.There were tens of thousands of people in the palace, but almost none of them could see the emperor. For several months, Zhu Di slept alone or with the queen at night, never spending the night in other concubines' rooms.Empress Xu was a virtuous person and would occasionally advise the emperor to get wet with rain and dew. Zhu Di then called other concubines to sleep with him, and when he was done, he asked people to take him away, but he still did not leave any concubines to spend the night.As soon as Zhu Di passed through Qianqing Gate today, he ordered his team to go directly to Kunning Palace and still look for Queen Xu.Queen Xu had just been canonized as quee
Game of the Throne Chapter 170 Auspicious Time
The Gaoyang County Prince's Mansion was foggy, with many people cleaning the yard and the air filled with dust. Zhu Gaoxu walked on the eaves, watching the eunuchs and palace maids busying themselves there, and officials from the Imperial Clan Court coming in and out, busy posting paper-cut couplets and leading people to move things into the gatehouse.Several maids from the palace took the rags down from the window and knelt together in greeting.Zhu Gaoxu then asked, "Whose maids are you?"A maidservant said, "Your Highness, we used to be maidservants in Kunning Palace. The Queen said that there are not enough people in your house, not even enough to serve the Princess, so she sent some maidservants here.""Oh..." Zhu Gaoxu nodded.He continued to walk around the house, feeling very strange, as if marriage had nothing to do with him, and it was all taken care of by others. He heard that someone would come to teach him etiquette and that kind of

Zhu Gaoxu also got up early in the morning. He heard that the princess had been given a golden seal and golden book, but he didn't know when it happened. Professor Hou Hai seemed to know a little bit of etiquette, and reminded Zhu Gaoxu, "When the prince goes to welcome the bride, when you arrive at the Princess's central hall, stand and bow four times to the Princess's parents. They only bow twice..."Hou Hai was still gesturing there. Zhu Gaoxu turned to look at him. Seeing his funny movements, he couldn't help but smile.Another palace maid came in and trimmed Zhu Gaoxu's eyebrows and beard, put a little rouge on his lips, and applied a thin layer of powder on his cheeks.Then he began to dress, Zhu Gaoxu wore a green top and a blue-red skirt.He put on a crown on his head, which was a kind of cap with beads hanging on the front and back, like the head portrait hat on paper money for the dead. He felt very uncomfortable wearing this hat, and the bea

It was broad daylight outside the carved window, but red candles had been lit in the bridal chamber, and red wedding characters were pasted on the windows, cabinets, and beds. The bright red color concealed the bride's gorgeousness, and contrasted her childish, pure, fair face with even more charm.Guo's cheeks were flushed and she was full of shame, but she was smiling faintly, which was an indescribable shyness and tenderness.When Zhu Gaoxu walked towards her, she avoided his gaze, but she was clearly watching him from the corner of her eyes, as if she couldn't stand the strong affection between them and wanted to hide, but couldn't bear to.She sat upright by the bed, dignified and beautiful, holding her hands together on her knees, too nervous to move; under the dignified and reserved posture, she was clearly sitting by the bed waiting for something, without the slightest intention of resisting, as if she was catering to that thing. It was hard to tell
Game of the Throne Chapter 173 The Blessed One
Guo Wei woke up and rubbed her sleepy eyes. She saw big red wedding characters everywhere in the room, and Zhu Gaoxu was no longer beside her. She covered her body with the quilt and stretched out her arms to find underwear.At this time, several palace maids came in, first knelt down to salute Guo Wei, and then came in with various things to help her dress, wash and dress up."Where is the prince?" Guo Wei asked.A palace maid said, "Just now I saw the prince go to the study. The prince ordered that the princess should go to the dining room to eat after getting up, and then go out later."So Guo Wei was helped to put on a red long-sleeved gown, a shawl, a red silk skirt, a red silk jacket, a phoenix crown and other complicated things. She could not choose because the clothes had been prepared long ago. Then she was taken to the dining room by a palace maid.Soon, several strange women came in one after another, carrying porridge, buns and some s
