Rising: Ten Thousand Years Chapter 44: : chat
This is the first time I saw a real man under one person and above ten thousand people, Xun Shifei, the prince of the Xun family of the Kyushu Empire. Li Zhen observed him carefully without any shyness, but the prince was born white and clean, other than that, he couldn't see anything different from ordinary people.
Unlike the legendary dragon walking and tiger walking, lotus grows every step of the way, there is a noble temperament of dragon liver and phoenix marrow in the power of not being angry. No, neither.
He is like an ordinary leading brother, with a smile that makes people warm.
"This is the junior, right? Sure enough, a hero is a boy."
Li Zhen clasped his fists: "In Xiahang City, Li Zhen met the crown prince of the Xun family who is the regent of the Kyushu Empire."
The crown prince's full name is so long that most people don't know it. If it wasn't for Mingkang's special notice on the way here that the full name should be used for the first time to be solemn, Li Zhen would not know that the crown prince's name is so long.
There are many rules in the royal family. Calling a person cannot be called by his name or rank directly. It is a courtesy to use the full name.
Xun Shifei smiled, and also clasped his fists to return a salute to Li Zhen: "Student brother, don't be so unfamiliar, call me senior Xun, it seems a little closer."
Li Zhen smiled and said, "Emperor's ceremony cannot be discarded, let's be the prince."
"Pu Chi"
A maid behind Xun Shifei couldn't help laughing, turned her head and whispered to the maid next to her, "It's really like a bumpkin from a poor country in the legend. Calling the prince, hahaha, sure enough, outside of Balong City are all rural areas, and outside of Zhongzhou are all peasants."
Another maid also whispered: "I have never seen the world. When I see the emperor, wouldn't I be so frightened that I would collapse on the ground?"
“…”
The atmosphere in the field became awkward.
The crown prince is very fond of the ten maids, and he usually doesn't have any majesty of superiors and subordinates with them, they just fight like brothers and sisters, and lovers. These maids are not like the obscurity of the feudal dynasty in ancient times. There are more lively and heartless girls, but they also have no rules and do not pay attention to occasions.
Except for those who met the royal family, everyone they saw looked like this.
Mingkang frowned slightly, but said nothing.
Li Zhen heard this and pretended not to hear it. Is it the arrogance of the people of the imperial capital? Outside of Eight Dragon City are all rural areas, outside of Zhongzhou are all farmers?
Xun Shifei was also a little embarrassed. Naturally, he knew why his maid taunted Li Zhen in public, because his maid must be facing him. They don't care whether you are number one scholar or not, official or not, they only know that if the prince doesn't like someone, they will taunt him both inside and out.
"Little Lian, don't speak wild words."
The maid pouted: "Here."
Xun Shifei's complexion was unstable, and he revealed the past lightly: "Student, sit down."
Li Zhen was stunned, is he so pampered?
For someone like Qi Lengzi, who has no brains, he also thinks this is a bit weird. The two masters were talking, and the people below interrupted and ridiculed. This is a kind of faux pas. When Li Zhen was talking to others, Qi Lengzi didn't dare to interrupt and talk nonsense.
The maids behind the crown prince should have a much lower status than herself in front of Li Zhen. They talked casually and uttered wild words, and they just passed by so lightly?
Qi Lengzi couldn't figure it out, isn't it said that there are so many royal rules? How did you come to the prince, the other way around?
Li Zhen is not a small-bellied person, so he sat down casually without paying attention, and his **** just stuck to the chair. The maid named Xiaolian pouted again and said:
"There are no rules. The crown prince didn't sit down yet, but you sat down first. You are really uneducated."
Li Zhen was taken aback, then quickly stood up again, and said with a guilty smile: "This is the first time I entered Zhongzhou, I was rude, please forgive me, Prince."
Xun Shifei smiled: "It's okay. Xiao Lian has been speaking outspokenly, so please don't take it to heart."
"No, no, no."
As soon as Li Zhen finished speaking, Xiao Lian answered again: "Hmph, forgive me, he doesn't dare. He doesn't **** and take pictures of himself, and he also wants to compete with the prince in knowledge? Really think that his number one scholar is very powerful There is no edge..."
"Xiao Lian!"
Even if Xun Shifei dotes on her again, he will become a little angry at this time. Some things can be said behind the scenes, and they are said again and again, so that people can't get off the stage.
Xiao Lian pouted and looked at Xun Shifei with an aggrieved face, meaning, did I say something wrong?
Xun Shifei glared at her for a moment, then he could only sigh helplessly, still couldn't bear to scold her.
Li Zhen and the others looked at each other, is this a maid? Is it so pampered?
Isn't it said that this is a royal family with many rules? Why is this maid's status so high? Even the maids and servants of rich merchants dare not speak like this in front of their master, even when there are guests. Is this royal maid so courageous?
Xun Shifei looked at Li Zhen with a wry smile: "My junior, forgive me."
What can Li Zhen say? He could only nod his head and said: "The prince is too worried, I didn't hear anything."
"Well, you've been busy all the way, are you tired?"
"I'm a little tired."
"I have already arranged the residence. It's night, let's rest. Hehe, I have to see the standard of my juniors tomorrow."
"The grassroots retire."
"Please."
“…”
After entering the mansion of the Crown Prince of Jinzhou County, without even drinking a cup of tea, Li Zhen and the others retreated to rest again.
In the guest room, Qi Lengzi was dumbfounded: "Is this a maid? So expensive?"
Mingkang said in a low voice: "Hush your voice so that no one can hear you."
"Hey, I just can't figure it out, this... isn't this too unruly?"
"I've heard that the prince loves the maid very much, I never thought he would do so much, alas."
Mingkang and Qi Lengzi chatted and complained to each other.
Li Zhen sat by the bed and pondered, why does the prince seem to dislike him?
It doesn't matter if the maid is outspoken, but if the prince likes herself, will they still say that? Obviously the prince didn't like him, so the maid couldn't help but say some harsh words.
"Brother Ming, did I inadvertently offend the crown prince?"
Mingkang smiled wryly: "It's not enough to offend, the prince is not so small."
"Then what happened today."
"Because the prince announced that Jinzhou County will compete with you in knowledge tomorrow. I will take you as an opponent."
Li Zhen suddenly realized: "The crown prince regards me as an opponent, so his maid will be 'outspoken' to me?"
"It should be like this. But the prince really dotes on the maid too much, but Li Zhen, you are wronged. Don't worry about it."
"No."
“…”
night.
After dinner, Li Zhen took a walk in the mansion with his stomach full.
This Jinzhou County is not the crown prince's fiefdom, it's just that there is a house for the prince here, and he will come to play and live here when he has time.
I have to say that the royal family is still rich and honored. This is just a mansion similar to a rich man's country villa, which greatly surprised Li Zhen.
Unfamiliar people, such as Li Zhen, will get lost while walking.
night.
Xun Shifei also went out for a walk after dinner, he was very upset. I've been very irritable these days, especially being led by the nose, and there's nothing I can do about it.
Seeing Li Zhen today, Xun Shifei was even more upset. Thinking of the knowledge competition with Li Zhen tomorrow, I feel thirsty. This thankless thing is finally about to happen.
"Alas."
With a faint sigh, he felt that he was tired of being the prince. Reaching out to hold up a summer flower and sniffing lightly, the fragrance filled the nostrils, suddenly looked back, and smiled:
"Is the champion still satisfied with my food?"
Li Zhen saluted with a smile, then sat down while leaning on the pillars of the gazebo: "Very satisfied."
The crown prince walked up to him and sat across from him, and said with a smile: "What Xiaolian said this afternoon~IndoMTL.com~ Please don't take it to heart, she treats everyone like this, I'm too spoiled .”
"It's okay."
The prince nodded in satisfaction, and suddenly remembered something: "I heard that you came to Zhongzhou from Hangzhou County, and you have been investigating the people's livelihood in various places along the way?"
Li Zhen's pupils shrank, and he exclaimed in his heart, how did he know?
Subconsciously, he touched the notebook that was next to his body, and he knew the GDP of various places here.
Did...Mingkang tell him?
How could it be, how could Mingkang be so ignorant?
The crown prince smiled and said, "Don't be surprised. A clerk recorded your words and deeds along the way. Before you arrived in Zhongzhou, a clerk had already recorded what you did and said along the way and reported it to the court. Yes. As the prince of Kyushu, I naturally understand it. Hehe, smashing Yanziji, domineering. I will obey you."
Li Zhenxin breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he just knew what he had done, not whether he had done it or not. However, I was still terrified in my heart, and I had to be more careful in the future. I still underestimated the horror of the empire.
Is there a clerk? I didn't even know that there was a clerk accompanying the team. It's really... dangerous.
If the clerk finds out that he has such a notebook, the court must be curious, and if he is allowed to hand it over to the officials, there will be a big disturbance.
"Yanziji... It's just that the grass people swore to avenge their classmates and teachers."
"It's okay. Many people die in Kyushu every day, and no one will care about how many horse thieves you kill. It's just that I'm curious. You are a science student, but you investigate the people's livelihood in various places along the way? Do you still know people's livelihood?"
"Slightly understand."
A look of surprise flashed in the prince's eyes: "Let's talk?"
"Know everything."
