Chapter 3 Who is the shabby guy who made this weird look?

Zhu Yunxi was carried back to the palace by the young eunuch. He cursed and groaned for a while before falling into a drowsy sleep.

This experience brought a huge shadow to him and made him realize that even if he traveled through time and became the grandson of the emperor, he could not talk nonsense.

Otherwise, there will be unforeseen disasters.

When he woke up again, the pain didn't hurt much, he just felt hungry and his heart was rattled by hunger.

He immediately called a young eunuch and asked him to get him some food, but the young eunuch's answer made him collapse.

"Your Majesty, we have nothing to eat in the palace. You'd better be patient for the time being and go to the Crown Princess's palace to have a meal at dawn."

“So what time is it now, and how long until dawn?

"It's about five o'clock now, right?"

"When this slave was just taking a nap, he vaguely heard five bangs outside."

When Zhu Yunxi heard this answer, he collapsed again. What time is the fifth watch?

But obviously no one could answer his question, because the ancients' concept of time was very weak. Looking at the shadow of the sun during the day and looking at the hourglass at night, and the crude timing tools, could not give rise to an accurate concept of time.

Zhu Yunxi learned from the pain in his heart and decided to make himself a watch as soon as he recovered from his injury.

If the technical difficulty of a watch is too high, then make a pocket watch. If a pocket watch cannot be made, then make a clock.

Then make a few more and give one to the old man, hum!

Since he was too hungry to sleep, Zhu Yunxi didn't care whether the young eunuch was sleepy or not, and started chatting with him casually.

"Hey, what's your name?"

When Zhu Yunxi said this, he pointed to his head and explained a little.

"The imperial doctor said that I have soul-leaving syndrome and I can't remember many things."

The little eunuch nodded without any doubt, indicating that he understood the other person's condition.

"Reporting to Your Highness, your servant Wang De."

"Then are you the third oldest child?"

"Your Highness, please remember, this slave is indeed the third eldest child in the family!"

Zhu Yunxi said softly "Oh" and thought to himself, I just remembered a ghost. I just thought of a certain private interview in private.

"Then you will be called Santoku from now on!"

Wang De was very happy when he heard this and hurriedly gave Zhu Yunxi a big gift.

"I thank Your Highness for the name. From now on, I will be called Sandokuzi!"

Wang De's sudden reaction directly confused Zhu Yunxi. He couldn't figure out how he could make the other party so happy by just saying a nickname casually.

As everyone knows, in the Ming Dynasty, the eunuchs who served closely like them, if nothing unexpected happened, would be bound to a noble person in this life.

In the future, if Zhu Yunxi is granted the title of king, they will also be granted the title of land. As for whether he can become the chief eunuch of the palace, it depends on whether he can gain the trust of the nobles.

The noble person personally bestowed the name on him, which was a sign that he treated him as a confidant. How could he not be happy?

Zhu Yunxi couldn't understand these twists and turns, he just wanted to get something out of this guy's mouth.

"Sandoku, I have forgotten many things. Can you tell me about my father... I don't need to tell you about my father. Who is my mother's name? Is there any high official in the family?"

Zhu Yunxi's purpose is very simple, that is to find a backer for himself.

Otherwise, it is hard to say whether a transparent person like him, who has not even left a name in history, can survive until the day he is crowned king.

"Are you asking about the late Crown Princess?"

"oh?"

When Zhu Yunxi heard this, he was puzzled. Wasn't the one who knelt down and kowtowed yesterday not his own mother?

"That's right, try to be as detailed as possible, especially the name!"

"Then this slave will be offended!"

"Your biological mother, Crown Princess Chang, comes from a famous family. She is the daughter of Kaiping King Chang Yuchun, and her name is Chang Wan..."

Zhu Yunxi silently thought about it in his mind. He remembered that Chang Yuchun died very early, so he was probably buried in the ground now, right?

Sure enough, San Dezi's next words confirmed his conjecture.

"After Master Chang passed away, it was Chang Mao, the eldest son of the Chang family, who attacked Duke Zheng's title. Later, Chang Mao was demoted to Longzhou as a commander because he violated military discipline and insulted His Majesty."

"Because His Majesty cared about the achievements of King Kaiping, he promoted the second master of the Chang family, Chang Chang, to the rank of Duke, and changed the title to Founding Duke..."

Zhu Yunxi was a little disappointed when he heard this. Although the official title of the founding father sounded quite high, the name Chang Sheng was so unfamiliar that he had never heard of it.

In fact, if he hadn't happened to time travel to Zhu Yunxi, he wouldn't have known that there was such a famous figure in history.

After all, with the knowledge he gained from nine years of compulsory education, he also knew about great historical figures such as Emperor Qin, Han Wu, Emperor Tang and Song Zu.

"Are there no powerful people in my mother's family?"

"A powerful person?"

San Dezi frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he said.

"By the way, you also have an uncle who was granted the title of Duke of Liang and is also a high official!"

"oh?"

"What is my great-uncle's name?"

"Sapphire!"

"Let me guess, Lan Yu is actually my uncle?"

Lan Yu was one of the few historical celebrities Zhu Yunxi knew. In his impression, this guy seemed to be very good at fighting. He fought in the Battle of Yuerhai and killed the Northern Yuan Dynasty's last breath.

But later, I didn’t know what he had done, and he was executed by Lao Zhu, and tens of thousands of people were implicated.

In principle, Sapphire is quite suitable to be a backer, but this backer is a bit dangerous and may even implicate himself.

Zhu Yunxi secretly wrote it down, and then asked some questions about the rules in the palace. Finally, he had a certain understanding of the daily life of his new identity.

In principle, as long as he doesn't offend Lao Zhu, no one can control him in the current Ming Dynasty!

As for the stepmother Lu, she can't pretend to be a good wife and mother, so how dare she restrict her too much?

After Zhu Yunxi understood his status, he secretly planned a development line for himself.

Make money, be crowned king, return to fiefdom!

Farm the land, train troops, and become the King of the Sea!

Neptune is a double meaning.

Let King Yan and Zhu Yunwen fight to death first, and when they are almost done fighting, they will come over and pick peaches in the name of Qing Jun, then Qing Jun, la la la!

"Sandoku, how have Mrs. Lu treated me these years?"

When Wang De heard this, his heart suddenly thumped, and he hesitated whether to tell the truth.

Because once he told the truth, he might cause His Highness to directly conflict with Mr. Lu. But if he didn't tell the truth, he would feel guilty towards the former Crown Princess.

"This...how should I put it? The current Crown Princess treats you...is okay with you..."

When Zhu Yunxi saw that Wang De was speaking so reluctantly, he knew what was going on. This was another cliche story about stepson and stepmother.

Fortunately, he vaguely remembered his past life, and he had been fighting with his stepmother for more than ten years. Although he could not remember the specific things, he still had a certain understanding of the general mental process, so he was not at all afraid to hear such things!

Hum hum, from now on, Lu's good days are over!

…

Crown Princess Lu was dressed up under the service of the palace maids. As soon as she walked into the dining hall, she saw a thin young man standing by the table early, holding a rice bowl in his hand and banging it on the table.

Lu was stunned when she saw this scene. When did this child become so active in eating? It was as if he was reincarnated as a starving ghost!

Besides, who is shabby if he makes such a weird look?

If outsiders saw it, they would think that his stepmother had abused him!
