At dawn the next day, Miao Jin got up to serve Zhu Gaoxu and dress him.
Because she was too tired before going to bed, she was still a little confused when she woke up early in the morning, as if she didn't get enough sleep. The intimate intimacy last night remained in her mind. At this time, she was busy caring about Gao Xu and telling him to have a good breakfast, and said some simple words.
After Zhu Gaoxu left Qianqing Palace, Miaojin tidied up and left in the imperial concubine's sedan.
Miaojin turned around on the sedan chair and glanced at the magnificent main hall, thinking to herself: Gao Xu is right, this emperor's palace does not feel like home. There are many eunuchs and maidens around, taking turns to work here. Perhaps in the eyes of the palace people, Qianqing Palace is just a "yamen" for high-ranking officials.
Returning to the Imperial Concubine Palace over the West Sixth Palace, a eunuch came up to pay homage and told Miao Jin, "The Q
"Bang!" Ma Enhui returned to the courtyard south of the Imperial Garden and suddenly threw the "Internal Training" she had brought back on the table in anger. The book fell on the table and onto the ground.Qiao'er and several palace maids were startled. They looked at the book that made Madam Ma angry and did not dare to pick it up.This book is not written by an ordinary person. Ma Enhui knew that if the news got out, it would be a big deal, but she couldn't help it! When she was still in Kunning Palace, she felt humiliated. She tried her best to endure it without losing her manners on the spot. When she returned to the courtyard, how could she care about so many things?Who doesn't know that she is the Empress Jianwen? At this time, she actually had to respectfully recite the book of Empress Xu. I don't know how the world will look at her, Ma Enhui, and how they will regard her as a person without integrity!"All of you go out!" Ma Enhui waved her s
When Zhu Gaoxu walked out of Ma's courtyard, the sun had already set in the west. Over in the Imperial Garden, the lush leaves on the treetops were shrouded in the setting sun and bright in color; but the light around Zhu Gaoxu had obviously dimmed, and he was in the shadow of the palace wall.His face darkened. The eunuch Cao Fu behind him was very good at observing people's expressions. He was even more cautious at this moment. He didn't dare to say a word and was more cautious than usual.Ma placed the book in a conspicuous place, of course, specifically for Zhu Gaoxu to read, she was just expressing her dissatisfaction! Zhu Gaoxu was in the room before, and he could still control his emotions; but now there was no one else, and he inadvertently showed his displeasure on his face.Understanding her is one thing, after all, Ma was the empress of Emperor Jianwen; but Zhu Gaoxu being unhappy is another thing!Now it seems that Ma is still completely on
Recently, a large number of troops have been heading north every day inside and outside Jinchuan Gate, and the ranks of chariots and horses have extended all the way to Longjiang Port.The soldiers carried a large number of Wugang carts. This bulky vehicle had been used by the Central Plains dynasties since the Han Dynasty; but if the Ming army only fought domestically, it would not use this kind of weapon that would slow down the marching speed.Only when attacking Mongolia in the north would soldiers carry this kind of vehicle! The Ming army not only used Wugang vehicles to transport supplies, but also to set up camps in the unprotected desert grasslands to guard against raids by nomadic cavalry.The court expected to enter the Tatars' area of activity in the fall, but the mobilization in early summer was known to everyone in the capital. There was really no way to keep it secret. Gathering an army of 200,000 or 300,000 was a huge undertaking in itself...
In the Beiping Provincial Administration Office, the trees that seemed dead in autumn and winter are now lush and leafy.But it was rainy recently. Under the gloomy sky, many low-rise gable roof houses were wet by the rain and looked gray-brown; the scene was completely different from that in the capital.In the garden of the Prince Zhao's mansion, the surface of the pond was rough from the rain, and there was a rustling noise all around. However, Huang Yan, who was standing in the pavilion and bowing to talk to the Prince Zhao, felt more at ease in such an environment. At least their conversation was not easily heard by strangers."The emperor has ordered the transfer of 13,000 soldiers from our palace, so the prince will only have about one guard left." Huang Yan said worriedly.Gao Sui also looked worried.Huang Taiping, who was sent to the capital by Huang Yan, has recently returned to Peking. The eunuch Cao Fu did not accept the gift Huang T
There was also an imperial city in Fengyang, the central capital.Although the capital of the Ming Dynasty was never located here, the hometown and ancestral tomb of Emperor Taizu were all here. The family of Gao Chi, the "abandoned prince" who came to Fengyang, lived in this imperial city.The imperial city was strictly guarded by eunuchs sent by the Zhongdu Residential Office and the capital. It was impossible for ordinary people to enter; and the people inside could hardly get out. The huge imperial city was like a cage, and like a cemetery, it was dead and gloomy!When the eunuch Wu Zhong walked outside the imperial city, the first thing he saw was a stone tablet. The words on the stone tablet were written by the former Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang himself, and then carved by craftsmen.The preface clearly states Taizu's intentions. He was afraid that the civil and military officials of later generations would only know how to whitewash and flatter,
"Fire!"Zhu Gaochi suddenly woke up from his sleep and heard the shout of "Noble Concubine" Zhang. He still opened his eyes, but immediately started coughing, and a choking smell hit his mouth and nose! The smell was not only the smoke of burning vegetation, but the most unpleasant thing was a dizzying stench.Tung oil smell!Zhu Gaochi struggled to get up. There was smoke in front of his eyes, and the fire flickered in the smoke.He grabbed his clothes and covered his mouth and nose, and vaguely saw his "noble concubine" Zhang. The voice just shouted was Zhang's voice.Mrs. Zhang looked panicked, holding Zhu Gaochi tightly with both hands, coughing "cough, cough, cough", and occasionally saying simple words, probably to save the child.Zhu Gaochi was speechless for a moment and hurriedly struggled to get out of bed. But before he took two steps, something kicked under his feet! Zhu Gaochi, who had difficulty walking, said "Ouch" and fell t
The sound of drums signaling the end of the You hour shift came from afar, breaking the dead silence in the East Warm Pavilion.Eunuch Wang Gui spoke cautiously, "Can this be described as an accidental fire?"Zhang Sheng said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid no one will believe it. According to the signs written in the report, there was a strong smell of tung oil when the fire broke out in Xiaoyao City, and all the water tanks used to put out the fire were broken! It doesn't look like an accident. The people who participated in the fire fighting included soldiers, officials, and servants, not just our people. It's impossible to hide the truth; I think the eunuch Wu Zhong is very suspicious, so why not put the blame on him!"Wang Gui sighed, "This is still unbelievable! Everyone in the world knows that the deposed prince's family was sent to Fengyang by the emperor to guard the mausoleum; the emperor is in charge of the court and has arranged people to keep an ey
After the emperor and dozens of his ministers discussed the matter, it was already late at night.The eunuchs escorted all the ministers out of the palace, and they walked out of the Xihua Gate and then out of the imperial city from the Xi'an Gate. The Xihua Gate was then closed because it was already past the time to close the gates of the palace.The street lamps were bright, and the lights on the towers near and far were on. The civil and military officials were talking in groups of three or five, and the noisy voices actually eased the previous tense atmosphere.The people walking beside Dali Temple Minister Gao Xianning included Qian Xun, a former official of the Prince of Han's Palace, and Hu Guang, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy!Hu Guang was a man who defected to the deposed crown prince during the Hongxi Dynasty, but now he can talk to Gao Xianning. Gao Xianning has been an official in the Hanlin Academy since the Yongle period, and he has a
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
