Chapter 1495: Enrollment 1
As soon as Manbao returned to her room, she took off her official uniform and said to Zhou Lijun and Zhou Liru, who were packing her things, "This official uniform is really hot. It's better to wear ordinary clothes."
Zhou Lijun: "But I see you look very happy in this outfit."
"It's hot after being happy." The weather is getting hotter now. It's still evening, and it will be even hotter at noon. Man Bao shuddered and said, "I don't know if the palace requires wearing official uniforms. I hope not."
Zhou Lijun had put all her books into the bookcase, as well as her notes, her usual writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone.
Zhou Liru also closed the box containing the clothes, "Aunt, I've packed everything for you."
Manbao was satisfied. She didn't care how much she brought into the palace, because as long as she wanted, she could bring in everything in the room.
Manbao thought happily, but after listening to Eunuch Wu, she realized that the things in the palace were still pretty good. After all, there were no poor people on the list. They had been used to a life of luxury since childhood. Manbao felt that she could endure much more hardships than them, so she felt from the bottom of her heart that she didn't need to bring too many things in.
Many families are already preparing to pack up and move into the palace, but they all have family members and servants to do the work for them, so they don't have to do it themselves.
Yin Huo was also packing up.
He took out two books from the bedside table and handed them to Changshou, asking him to put them in the box. He turned to the folded book on the table beside him and paused.
This is a biography written by Bai Erlang. He would buy every copy the bookstore printed. Even if he had already read the original manuscript, he would take it back and put it beside his bed, and take it out to read when he was bored at night.
Changshou put away the box, turned around and saw the book in the young master's hand and asked, "Young master, do you want to put this book in?"
Yin Huo thought for a moment and handed him the book, "Put it away."
The palace is different from the outside world after all. It is rare that his father is willing to let him enter the palace. It is better not to bring in things that may cross the line.
Yin Li originally refused to allow Yin Huo to enter the palace, even though his name was chosen by the emperor. However, he did not know whether this was the emperor's true intention or a false test.
Or, even if you are sincere now, who knows if it will become false in the future?
Yin Li had always been the emperor's confidant. Of those who had followed the emperor back then, some had retired from the court after achieving success, some continued to serve effectively, and some, like Hou Ji, had perished due to missteps...
But no matter who he is, he is the only one who can stand beside the emperor and have his back to him.
So Yin Li didn't want to test the emperor with this kind of thing.
Besides that, it was all because of Yin Huo's health. Even though he looked like an ordinary person now, he knew that he couldn't get too cold or too hot. He had to eat in moderation, neither eating too much nor too little. He still needed to take medicine every few days...
The palace is not like home after all. Yin Huo's physical condition is no secret, and the Imperial College has always treated him well. If he is sick, he can basically ask for leave and stay at home by telling the school.
With the help of Zhou Man, I received acupuncture and prescribed medicine for treatment. I have only had two minor illnesses in the past six months.
But once he enters the palace, can he still enjoy these privileges?
So Yin Li refused the emperor, but Yin Huo was very tempted. Although he didn't say it, Yin Li knew that he wanted to go.
The emperor mentioned it again, and this time Yin Li hesitated for a moment. Seeing this, the emperor immediately said that if Yin Li entered the Chongwenguan, he would ask the palace people to take better care of him.
The emperor laughed and said, "Besides, Zhou Man is in the Chongwen Hall. Why are you so worried?"
Yin Li didn't quite understand, "Why does Your Majesty value my son so much?"
The emperor felt a little uncomfortable, but he coughed lightly and explained, "In the past, you and I shared the same suffering. Our children were both extremely disobedient, but I've seen you cheer up a lot since the New Year. Last time, you even said you wanted to keep your youngest daughter at home and marry her. It's clear you've come to your senses. I think my eldest son and your seventh son are somewhat similar. Perhaps if they were together, your seventh son could comfort him."
Yin Li: ...
Seeing that he was silent, the emperor took his hand very friendly and said, "Mr. Yin, I know what you are worried about, but I trust you and your son Qilang."
The emperor was quite proud, puffed out his chest and laughed, "Do I really fear that my own son will rebel against me?"
The emperor was young and strong at the time, and he was not worried about the prince's strength, but only worried that he was not calm and self-controlled enough.
But Yin Li thought, you will get old one day, and you may not think so then.
But considering the emperor's age and his son's physical condition, Yin Huo might even surpass the emperor, so what was he afraid of?
It’s better to satisfy the child.
So Yin Li hesitated for a moment and then agreed.
When the emperor heard this, he was delighted and immediately ordered Gu Zhong to take good care of Yin Huo. When the time comes, he would let the prince study with them so that the two of them could interact with each other and Yin Huo could comfort the prince.
Yin Li did not tell Yin He about this. In his opinion, his son's disobedience was very different from that of the prince.
Yin Huo's disobedience mainly troubled himself, and he seldom took the initiative to trouble others; but the prince was different. The prince was uncomfortable himself, and he also wanted to make others uncomfortable.
So how do we enlighten this?
It's better to let nature take its course, so as not to put any psychological burden on his son. Zhou Man had said that Yin Hu must not get mentally upset, as it could easily harm his body.
Yin Huo knew nothing about these things, but he was still more cautious than others and didn't even dare to bring in the storybook written by Bai Erlang.
Bai Shan stuffed a lot of his favorite books into the box in one breath, many of which were brought by Manbao, and many of them were good-looking.
He probably knew that it would be difficult to bring these books into the palace, so he prepared some thick book covers in advance, and then took a pen and wrote "The Analects of Confucius" and "Zuo Zhuan" on them word by word...
Then he wrapped the book covers around the book covers and placed them on the desk to press carefully overnight. When he woke up the next morning, the book covers were flattened. Then he put the books at the bottom and stacked several books. He closed the box only after making sure that there was no problem at first glance.
The first day of May was a sunny and windy day. Daji and Liu Gui drove a carriage to take them to the palace.
Mr. Zhuang, Mrs. Liu and others couldn't help but go and see them off.
It's strange to say, Madam Liu didn't have time to see them off when they went to the Imperial College, but unexpectedly she was able to see them off when they went to the Chongwenguan.
Old Madam Liu valued them so much that Bai Dalang and Zhou Wulang even took a day off to send them off.
Manbao and his companions did not take the carriage, but rode their own horses directly. Of course, they walked beside the carriage, which made it look like they were guarding the carriage to the palace.
As they entered the imperial city, they happened to encounter the Liu family's carriage. Liu Huan lifted the curtain and leaned over the window to talk to them, "You really brought your own horses into the palace?"
Bai Shan asked him, "Didn't we agree to bring them together? Why didn't you bring them?"
Liu Huan sighed, "My grandfather wouldn't allow it. He said I came to the palace to study, not to learn riding and archery. The horses in the palace are enough for me, so I'm not allowed to take any."
