All Chapters of Game of the Throne: Chapter 441 - Chapter 450

The next day at noon, the eunuch Hai Tao walked straight into Kunning Palace. The eunuchs and palace maids on duty all knew him, and no one tried to stop him.As early as when Zhu Gaochi was the Prince of Yan, Hai Tao was in the Prince's Mansion. He could not be a remnant of Jianwen, nor could he defect to Gao Xu or Gao Sui. Therefore, Hai Tao is now the most trusted eunuch of the Emperor and Empress.When Zhang saw him coming in, she first asked a few questions about Zhu Zhanji's study in the back hall of Wenhua Palace. Soon she asked the servants around him to leave.Hai Tao then started talking about business. He whispered, "Your Majesty, the new maid favored by the Emperor is from Concubine Zhang's palace, named Nightingale. The Emperor likes her and ordered her to accompany him day and night. When the Emperor went to the East Warm Pavilion to review memorials, he still asked Nightingale to accompany him. In the morning, the Emperor secretly summoned the

In late spring, the vegetation in Chengdu is very lush. The ancient government office is like a garden.Deep in the shade of the trees, the air was filled with the smell of burning incense. Xiping Hou Mu Sheng was sitting on a futon on a stone bench, looking at the chessboard on the stone table in front of him. Opposite the stone table sat a young woman with a slightly bulging belly.At this time, a middle-aged man in a cloth robe came over, leaned over and whispered in Mu Sheng's ear, "General Xu is here, with guests.""Please come in, General Xu." Mu Sheng ordered. He then raised his head and looked at the maid holding a wooden tray opposite him, "Madam Fushayi, please go into the room and rest for a while. Be careful."After hearing this, the Yi tribe girl Shayi stood up tactfully, knelt down and said, "I'll take my leave."Not long after, Xu Tao, the left deputy general of the Mu Sheng army, walked in alone. He clasped his fists and saluted,

Xu Tao then presented the letter brought by Zhang He, the content of which was written by the Minister of Justice Lu Zhen and signed by him.When Zhang Hearing Zhu Gaoxu mention the word "and others", he bowed and said, "That's exactly what Lü Bu Tang meant."Zhu Gaoxu put down the letter and said directly, "I am willing to make a deal for this matter. However, if you want to exchange Guo Zi, you must send all the families of Sheng Yong and Ping An in addition to Qian Xun, the left chief of the Han Palace."Zhang He showed no surprise at Zhu Gaoxu's huge request.When the court was embarking on this transaction, the officials may have had an idea in their minds: Chief Clerk Qian Xun and Minister of Revenue Guo Zi were not at the same level at all, so it was reasonable to add the words "and others"; and it was possible to guess which people Zhu Gaoxu needed.Zhang He quickly replied, "The King of Han wants too many people. Only one family can be c

Zhu Gaoxu seemed to have returned to the days when he was first granted the title of Duke of Yunnan: when the weather was good, he would go out for a walk, then return to the palace, and his life was mostly the same. But it seemed very different, probably because his mood was different.Back then, he had no control over many things and had to rely on the attitudes of his father and the court, but he didn't have as many worries. But now, it's the opposite.Zhu Gaoxu left the parade ground and returned to the study in the front hall. He was used to working here, and many things were placed in convenient places.Walking in through the carved wooden door, there is a mahogany rectangular desk in the middle, with a chair with a futon behind it. In front of the desk are some waist-shaped stools of different heights and a round table.There is a row of wooden windows with light grey gauze curtains on the east side, facing the corridor and patio, where you can

The scenery at the end of April is just as described by Li Qingzhao: “green is fat and red is thin”.The only scenery that Ma Enhui could see while imprisoned in Fengyang was a few trees in the yard and the weeds in the corners. The branches and leaves on the treetops were already lush and dense, full of vitality.The people that Ma Enhui usually saw were the mute old palace maid who brought her meals, the old eunuch who could hardly hear and did odd jobs like cleaning the yard, and the eunuch doorman who guarded the yard. She could also occasionally see the eunuch Wu Zhong.As a trusted eunuch of Emperor Jianwen, Wu Zhong should have been executed long ago. But Wu Zhong had a adopted son named Huang Gou, who worked in the Hanwang Palace at the beginning of Yongle and found some ways to save Wu Zhong's life. After that period, no one in the upper eunuchs remembered Wu Zhong, a eunuch and a slave.Although both were guarding the mausoleum, Ma Enhui was
