Hong Fu, the steward of Zhenbei Palace, is a good brother who grew up with Zhenbei King Zhou Yi since childhood.
Hsi is also the only person in the palace who is worthy of Jiang Yuan's trust.
At the same time, he was also the intelligence leader placed in the imperial capital by Zhou Yi, the king of Zhenbei.
"Uncle Fu, you don't have to be polite!"
"You are my father's deceased brother and also my elder. In the future, you will need to work more on all matters in the palace."
Jiang Yuan looked at the short fat man with a smile on his face, nodded and said.
It is true that he is an ordinary person who cannot be found in a crowd, and he is indeed a good expert in intelligence.
However, it was a good thing that Zhou Yi, the king of Zhenbei, placed his intelligence chief in the palace of Zhenbei, the imperial capital, as a housekeeper.
This is just darkness under the lamp!
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has spoken seriously!"
"His Royal Highness is tired from traveling and traveling, it is better to go to the palace to rest quickly!"
Hong Fu said.
"His Royal Highness, since you have arrived at the Zhenbei Palace safely, we will not disturb you anymore. The old servant must return to the imperial court as soon as possible."
Eunuch Huaixu also spoke out.
"Eunuch Huaixu, you have worked hard on the journey!"
Jiang Yuan nodded when he heard this, and then stepped into the Zhenbei Prince's Mansion.
From now on, he is the owner of this house!
"The Crown Prince of Zhenbei has extraordinary magnanimity. He really has a father with no dog son."
"It's just that such a character will make people more fearful!"
The Prince of Zhenbei would not be confused about the true purpose of Emperor Tiancheng’s edict to come to the imperial capital.
The sixteen-year-old boy named Prince Dudu was actually in a situation where he was a hostage. He took it calmly, without joy or sorrow.
This kind of emotional management is simply amazing.
Even if he pretends to be calm, he is still a scheming person!
Logically speaking, if he burst into tears after entering the imperial capital, Emperor Tiancheng would be more wary of him.
But his performance now is so good, really good.
Sometimes it’s too good, but sometimes it’s too bad!
But these have nothing to do with Eunuch Huaixu. From the moment Prince Zhenbei entered the imperial capital, his mission was completed. Next, he would stay with his master and concentrate on training.
This time out is also a good thing for him.
His utilitarian heart gradually cooled down, and he gradually understood the direction of his future efforts!
Jiang Yuan entered the Zhenbei Palace and selected two independent small courtyards on the east side of the palace. The courtyards were not large, with only three houses, one bedroom, one living room, and a utility room.
Jiang Yuan ordered people to clear out the utility room and use it as his practice room.
I live in one place, and the shadow that follows me lives in another place. The two small courtyards are next to each other, and they also take care of each other.
Moreover, Jiang Yuan's yard is only separated from the street by a wall, which is actually very convenient for him to enter and exit the palace quietly.
As for things like being assassinated, he is not worried at all.
Since he embarked on the path of cultivation and broke through to the third level of Qi training, his own comprehensive strength is comparable to that of a true martial arts master at the peak.
No one can kill him unless he is a martial arts heavenly being, not even a peak martial arts master.
If the martial arts gods really want to take action against him, he will not be able to escape death no matter where he lives in Zhenbei Palace.
Hong Fu didn't understand his decision, but he could only do it.
Jiang Yuan stayed in Zhenbei Palace for three days. On the morning of the fourth day, the eunuch of the East Palace of the Imperial Court invited Jiang Yuan to enter the palace.
It was not Emperor Tiancheng Xiao Yan who summoned him, but Prince Xiao Tong.
As the prince's companion, it was time to meet the prince.
"Your Majesty, the imperial court is guarded by martial arts gods and father-in-law Wuhua. I'm afraid I can't go to the imperial court with you. You have to be careful about everything."
Wu Yingshen appeared next to Jiang Yuan in an elusive manner and spoke.
" IT is just a summons from the crown prince, what danger can there be? - <
Jiang Yuan smiled lightly, then washed up, had breakfast, and the palace's groom drove the carriage straight to the Donghua Gate of the Imperial Court.
The Prince's East Palace is on the east side of the imperial court. When he arrived at the Donghua Gate, Jiang Yuan showed his identity and was led down to the Wenwu Hall by a young eunuch from the East Palace.
The prince's companion is actually the prince's bookboy, the person who accompanies the prince to study.
However, most of the crown prince companions began to follow the prince when the prince was seven or eight years old, until the prince came of age, and even continued until the prince succeeded to the throne.
These East Palace attendants are all very special. They are either the sons of top military generals or the grandsons of top civil servants, as well as the legitimate sons of the top martial arts and Confucianism families in the Liang Dynasty.
Of course, this is the first time that a direct descendant of a king with a different surname is allowed to serve as the crown prince's companion.
When Jiang Yuan arrived at the Wenwu Hall, Prince Xiao Tong and his companions had been waiting for a long time.
"You are the first Prince of Zhenbei who can make His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wait for you for half an hour in the Wenwu Hall!"
Before the Crown Prince Xiao Tong could speak, a very handsome young man with a bookish look beside him spoke.
"That's really my honor."
"Weak minister Zhou Wu, I have met His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"I had to freshen up and dress up to see the Crown Prince, so I came a little late. I hope Your Highness the Crown Prince will forgive me."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuan smiled faintly, glanced at this man, and bowed to the heroic young man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe.
"Brother King Zhou, you don't need to be polite!"
"I have long heard that Brother Zhou Wang is a master of martial arts, literary skills and military strategy, and he is proficient in everything. Seeing him today, he is indeed very magnanimous, not to be outdone by King Zhenbei!"
Prince Xiaotong waved his hands and said with a smile.
"The prince is ridiculously complimentary."
"I am just a dandy, and I cannot afford such praise as Tianzong, Shenwu, Wen Tao and Wulu."
Jiang Yuan shook his head lightly.
"The Crown Prince is endowed with the talents of a dragon and a phoenix, as well as the fortune of the sun. We, the companions, all have their own strengths. I wonder what the Crown Prince of Zhenbei is good at?"
"My father, the Minister of Rites, Wang Jinglue, I am Wang Zhiwei, the Imperial Supervisor!"
The man who spoke before spoke again.
"I have some skills in boxing and kicking, do you want to compete with me?"
Jiang Yuan looked at Wang Zhiwei, smiled disdainfully, and said.
"You..."
Wang Zhiwei's face turned red when he heard this.
Isn't it too shameless for you to compete with a weak scholar?
"Brother Zhiwei has quick thinking and outstanding literary talent. He has been known as a child prodigy since he was a child."
"But he has been weak and sick since he was a child, and is not good at boxing. If Prince Zhenbei is interested, why not compete with me?"
“I, Lu Lingyun, the son of Hussar General Lu Xiaotian, would like to ask Prince Zhenbei to give me some advice!”
A tall young man bowed his hands towards Jiang Yuan and said.
"My prince also knows a little bit about poetry and poetry, how about we compare poems?"
Jiang Yuan glanced at Lu Lingyun and said.
"This... let's forget it!"
Lu Lingyun was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled awkwardly.
"Competing with scholars in fists and feet, and competing in poetry with martial artists, Prince Zhenbei is really a sophist!"
Wang Zhiwei said sarcastically.
"It's you who insist on comparing with me, but I don't insist on comparing with you."
"Since you insist on competing with me, isn't it unreasonable for me to decide what to compare?"
"On the battlefield, whether you are a scholar or a warrior, the enemy's arrows have no eyes." "
"What qualifications do people like you have to serve as the prince's companion? You all came in through the back door, right?"
"Everyone opened and closed their mouths to name their fathers. Speaking of words, if your father is not the Minister of Rites or the General of the Cavalry, what qualifications do you have to stand in front of me and bark? " Jiang Yuan's eyes turned cold and he yelled loudly.
