Chapter 44 Accompanying the Grandson as a Carpenter
After stepping into the door of Xili's bedroom, Zhang Yong felt a cool breeze blowing at his face, and the hot June summer disappeared. Although the effect was not as good as the air conditioner in later generations, it had such a cooling effect in this era.
When he walked into the door, Zhang Yong saw a beautiful woman sitting in the middle, which was the main master Xili. Xili was about twenty-seven years old and eight years old, and her appearance was a little better than Kebaba outside. No wonder she was deeply loved by Zhu Changluo. Behind Xili were two middle-aged palace maids wearing big fans. As the fan was blowing, a cool breeze came towards him.
Zhang Yong noticed that behind Xi Li was a large wooden box with many small holes drilled. The wind blowing from the palace maid's fan was blown out through the box, and the cool breeze was blown out. This thing was an ancient earth air conditioner with ice cubes inside. With human-powered fans and ice cubes to cool down, I am afraid that only the Imperial House can enjoy such treatment.
In fact, Xi Li was just a select attendant. In terms of status, she was only a little higher than the palace maid. Her status was much lower than that of Tianqi's biological mother Wang Cairen, but Xi Li was deeply favored by Zhu Changluo, so killing Wang Cairen would be like nothing happened. Now Xi Li is already the highest-ranking woman in the East Palace. The Crown Princess died and Wang Cairen died. Even Chongzhen's biological mother Liu Shunun, who was lower than her, died, and she was deeply favored by the Crown Prince.
Xi Li glanced at Zhang Yong who was standing behind Wei Chao with his hands hanging down, and felt that the little eunuch with a handsome face looked particularly pleasing to the eyes, so he said, "Yongwazi, you should serve the two young emperors here in the palace in the future. Eunuch Wei has to do too many things and it is too hard to do. You are just right here."
Zhang Yong thanked repeatedly, and after thanking him, he stood there again and dared not move.
Xi Li was amused by Zhang Yong's timid look: "Yongwazi, you should step down first and go outside to accompany the emperor. I will also say a few words to Eunuch Wei."
The first thing Zhang Yong has to consider now is to find a way to meet Wanli, it is best to replace Yang Hao, let Xiong Tingbi go up, and transfer his elder brother back to the capital, so that he can become the Jinyiwei.
Currently, Zhang Yong's identity is Changsui, the lowest among eunuchs of grades, but much stronger than a hand towel with no grades of nine thousand years old. He thought to himself: Being educated is good, and a person's success is related to luck and talent. The so-called luck is opportunity. He can know Cao Huachun and was recommended to Wang An by Cao Huachun. This is opportunity. But only opportunity. If he does not have talent, he will be attracted to Wang An?
Therefore, smart people can seize opportunities and make others look at them.
Could it be that Jiu Qiansui, who is ignorant, is just lucky? No, Jiu Qiansui has also worked hard. If he hadn't worked hard when he worked in the mansion of the eunuch Sun Xian, he would have been the nameless white for the rest of his life and would have never had the chance to enter the palace. After entering the palace, he would have been attracted by the Wei Dynasty because he was honest and kind.
As for how could a 50-year-old eunuch who was in his rank without grades be taken aback by Kebaba? This question is complicated. Perhaps Wei Zhongxian's good skills in some aspects can make Kebaba happy.
Besides, Wei Zhongxian truly cared for Tianqi as if he was his own child.
Even if Zhang Yong is anxious to see Wanli, he will never be able to see him for a while, so he decided to start with the young Zhu Youxiao.
Although Emperor Wanli disliked Zhu Changluo's son, he still liked Zhu Youxiao's grandson very much. Principal Zhu You was so crazy that he showed a sense of cleverness in his eyes, which made people like him at first glance. He didn't look like his father Zhu Changluo at first glance, and he looked like a fool.
Zhang Yong walked outside. The future carpenter emperor had already thrown the carriage toy he had just made for his brother to play with, but he was making a new toy, which was a small wooden sailboat. Although it was a small toy, he did it very seriously.
"Your Highness." Zhang Yong walked to Zhu Youxiao and called out.
"Go away, don't make trouble when I'm working!" Zhu Youxiao said angrily.
Zhang Yong asked for a fan to come to the middle-aged palace where the fan was shaking beside him: "Sister, let me serve you."
The middle-aged palace maid just shook the fan and made her arms sobbed and bored. Someone came to grab the job, so she naturally handed the fan to Zhang Yong very happily: "This young father-in-law, I'll give it to you."
Zhang Yong stood beside Zhu Youxiao, shaking the fan while watching Zhu Youxiao work attentively. It was the hot summer in June, and although someone was shaking the fan for Zhu Youxiao, he worked hard and was still sweating profusely. Sweat dripping from his forehead, and he was unaware of it.
"It's still a little bit of a wooden board," said Zhu Youxiao.
"I'll get it for you, my lord." Zhang Yong hurriedly ran to hand Zhu Youxiao a wooden board.
At this time, Zhu Youxiao took the time to look at Zhang Yong and found that he was a young eunuch who was similar to his age. When he looked at the wooden boards obtained by the young eunuch, the sizes were very suitable for him, and he immediately felt good about him.
"This little companion, do you know how to do carpentry?" Zhu Youxiao asked.
"A little bit like the same thing, you can only do some vulgar things. How can you compare with you?" Zhang Yong replied. He did know how to make some gadgets in his previous life, and of course his skills cannot be compared with Apocalypse. But he has hundreds of years of knowledge about Apocalypse and can do things that Apocalypse has never seen before.
Zhu Youxiao was busy for a while, and the small sailboat was finally completed.
"This friend, let's find a pool together, put the boat down and try it out?" Zhu Youxiao asked.
"Okay, but I think you're missing something?" Zhang Yong said.
"What's missing?"
"A shortage of rope, otherwise the boat will float to the middle of the pool, how do we get it back?"
"Yes! Let's add a rope," Zhu Youxiao nodded and asked again: "This little companion, can you not swim, either?"
"Yes, if you think adding a rope to destroy the beauty, then it's better not to add it. The boat is far away, I swim and bring the boat back!" Zhang Yong replied quickly, and then the topic changed, "But, to be honest, I suggest you learn to swim, so that if you go out on a boat and accidentally fall into the water, you don't have to wait for someone to help you, and you can swim ashore by yourself, how great would that be?"
The Ming Emperor had a tradition of falling into the water, and Zhang Yong had to prevent it.
Who knew that Zhu Youxiao shook his head stubbornly: "If you have a companion, you can swim. If I accidentally fall into the water in the future, you will definitely come to save me. Do you think so? It's too troublesome to learn to swim. I have that time, so why not do more things."
"Brother, are you going to release the boat?" Two children came out from behind, a man and a woman.
Needless to say, the boy knew it was Chongzhen. The little girl was Princess Le'an and the daughter of Xi Li, who was the same age as Chongzhen.
Seeing the little loli like a pink and jade, Zhang Yong couldn't help but look at her a few more times. The little girl was very cute and inherited the beauty of her mother. She had black and shiny black hair and a pair of round big eyes, which was very clever. She looked very likable at first glance.
But the princess of the Ming Dynasty is very pitiful. Not to mention arranged marriages, being a prince-consort in the Ming Dynasty is simply a punishment. Those who can become a prince-consort must have talent. However, the prince-consort in the Ming Dynasty cannot serve as civil servants. Not only can they not become officials, but their immediate relatives in the family will also be implicated and not be officials. How depressing is this for a talented young man? Moreover, the prince-consort in the Ming Dynasty cannot meet the princess after marriage. Without the consent of the old shrew of the housekeeper, the prince-consort and the princess are not allowed to meet.
Princess Le'an's life was quite happy after marriage. The princess Gong Yonggu and Princess Le'an were loving and loving. Unfortunately, the Ming Dynasty was destroyed. Before Li Zicheng broke the city, Princess Le'an had already passed away. Before he was buried, the army broke into the capital. Before Gong Yonggu drew his sword and committed suicide, he tied his children in front of the princess' coffin, then set a fire to burn his home, drew his sword and committed suicide.
Zhang Yong, who was a fan of Ming in his previous life, certainly would not allow such a tragedy to happen, so he was determined to be a eunuch party loyal to the emperor and to eliminate all the civil servants and gentry groups.
