I want to be a grandson

Chapter 293 Deceiving Your Majesty?

"Mahe, get up."

Wang Zhong pulled Ma He up from the ground and said, "Keep Your Highness's kindness in your heart, and serve His Highness faithfully and faithfully in the future.

Ma He wiped away his tears, stopped crying and said: "Your Highness's great kindness, it is really grand, this servant is ashamed to accept it..."

"From now on, you and I will serve His Highness, let's go and I will take you to familiarize yourself with the Sixth Bureau of the Eastern Palace..."

Wang Zhong understood that the grandson of the emperor must have liked Ma He, because if it was just to catch the handle of Yan Wang's subordinates, there was no need to treat Ma He like this.

On the contrary, there was too much grace last time, and it would make people feel that it was intentionally bribed, framed and framed.

But His Highness still thinks of Ma He's family, and even takes care of their children. This is not taking advantage of it, but appreciating it!
Is the person His Highness admires still far away from Qingyun Zhishang?
So even though Wang Zhong is a fifth-rank eunuch, he doesn't have the slightest airs towards Ma He. Apart from forming a good relationship, he also wants to work together to serve His Highness!
For Zhu Yunxi, Xiang Ma and Shi En are just a matter of effort.

In his opinion, Ma and this person are the same talents, and they are rare talents!

For such a talent, there must be enough courtesy to make him return to his heart.

Now that I have cut him off from Yan Wang Zhu Di's hands, I have to cut him to the end!
He must never be allowed to run away from his palm again.

There is another reason, that is, you must not push talents to your fourth uncle.

This is also the reason why Zhu Yunxi showed kindness to him!
……

Fortunately, in the early Ming Dynasty, various etiquette systems were not perfect, and the implementation was not so serious.

So it's not very particular in many ways.

Moreover, Xu Miaoyun is only the concubine of King Yan, not the concubine of the emperor's harem, so the restrictions are relatively small.

But even so, when Xu Miaoyun returned to Duke Wei's mansion, he had to follow the etiquette.

First, the eunuch sent a message to the Duke of Wei's mansion to make preparations for the Duke of Wei's mansion, so that no one else in the family could show up, especially men.

According to the rules, you can only meet your family members under the service of the maids, and you can't see each other unless you are an elder or brother with a particularly close relationship.

At this time, Xu Miaoyun pulled her younger sister Xu Miaojin and said affectionately: "Sister, look, this is the rouge gouache I bought specially for someone. The color is very good and it won't fade easily. It's the most suitable for you."

As he spoke, he handed a box of rouge to his sister.

Xu Miaojin took it over and said, "Thank you sister, I let my sister spend the money."

"Where is it."

Xu Miaoyun held another fur waistcoat and said: "Brother, this is the black bear His Highness hunted. I made two waistcoats. Come on, try wearing them and see how you like..."

Xu Huizu took it over, put it aside and said, "Try again later, sister, how long can you stay in Beijing this time?"

"I don't know about this either. I should wait until the emperor grandson's canonization ceremony is held, and then I will return to Beiping Mansion."

Xu Huizu nodded, and seemed to be talking to himself: "The Mongols in the north are uneasy. With so many vassal kings returning to Beijing, it's hard to guarantee that they won't harass the border. It's better to go back earlier."

Xu Miaoyun glared at her younger brother, "You want me to leave just as soon as I get home? Fighting is your men's business, it has nothing to do with women."

Xu Huizu explained: "I am afraid that the Mongols will invade the border. It is a good thing that my sister can stay at home for a few more days."

Xu Miaoyun glared at him again, turned around and said to her sister: "I'm still back on the first day of the new year, and we will go to the grave of my sister and mother to pay homage. I haven't been back for several years, and I really feel owed."

Xu Miaojin comforted and said: "Sister, there is no need to do this. My sister is in a foreign country, and there is nothing I can do. I think you must miss my sister very much, Mom and Dad."

"Hey, let's not talk about this..."

Xu Miaoyun's eye circles were a little red, and she didn't want to cry in front of her younger siblings, so she quickly changed the subject and said, "Sister, why do I smell milk on you? You don't like drinking mare's milk either."

Hearing this, Xu Miaojin blushed a little, "There is a newborn baby in the mansion, sometimes I go to help take care of it, maybe it's smelled..."

Generally, infants and young children have the smell of milk, because the child has been breastfeeding and has a single diet, which is the unique smell of the child.

But after the child grows up and stops feeding, the taste will fade until it disappears completely.

However, for different children, the length of time for the fragrance of milk to dissipate is not the same.

Xu Miaoyun stared at her younger sister up and down, her face full of doubts.

As a lady of a wealthy family, bathing with incense is the most basic operation,
Moreover, the family members knew that he was coming, and they would definitely make proper preparations, and they would not come to see him wearing smelly clothes.

But although the milk scent on my sister's body is not too strong, it is already very light, but if you smell it carefully, you can still smell it.

This shows that Xu Miaojin was still taking care of the child before he came, so there was no time to change clothes.

In this way, this child must be important to her!
Xu Miaoyun said puzzledly: "Why bother you to take care of it yourself, who gave birth to the child?"

Xu Huizu got up in embarrassment and said: "Sister, you can talk, I still have business, so I won't accompany you any longer."

After all, they were talking about babies and feeding, and as a grown man he couldn't stand it.

Xu Miaoyun responded, and then turned to look at her younger sister. If she didn't know her sister's character and personality, she would almost suspect that the child was...

But Xu Miaojin said very calmly: "A new servant in the family gave birth to a child. I have nothing to do at home, so I went to have a look. It's right to relieve my boredom."

He pulled his older sister to sit down and asked, "Sister, how are you doing in Prince Yan's mansion? Is His Royal Highness King Yan treating you well?"

"Okay, everything is alright, don't worry about His Royal Highness Yan Wang's frequent expeditions, but he has nothing to say to my sister."

Xu Miaojin said worriedly: "I heard that Dai Wang's temperament... I don't know how the second sister will marry him."

Xu Miaoyun comforted and said: "Don't worry, Dai Wang has a bit of a violent personality, but he doesn't dare to be presumptuous to the second sister, otherwise His Majesty will definitely warn him, so you don't have to worry."

In terms of seniority, Xu Miaoyun is now Dai Wang's sister-in-law, so it's okay to say that he has a violent personality.

"You don't know yet, the second sister is pregnant now, and she will have a baby in a few months. The Dai Wang doesn't take care of her like a baby."

"I can rest assured that……"

Xu Miaoyun looked at the room and asked involuntarily: "Sanmei, why don't you see the longevity increase?"

Xu Miaoyun replied: "A few days ago, my brother asked His Majesty for grace to let him go to the subordinates of Hou Muying in Xiping, Yunnan, to lead troops to fight with the suppression of the rebellion, and let him practice hard."

"It doesn't matter if you have practiced or practiced, you will be able to develop some skills. Mu Ying is also very generous, so he must not be able to bear any grievances there."

Xu Miaojin raised her eyes and took a deep look at her sister and said, "Sister, you also know that my brother has a rather dull personality and is not good at expressing the love in his heart, so there may be fewer letters to Beiping Mansion in the future. Please don't Strange."

"I don't know Huizu's character yet! It's extremely difficult for him to write me a family letter!"

Then he said to his sister: "If he doesn't write in the future, then you can write it. Don't pay attention to him. Let us sisters talk about it."

Seeing her tone and demeanor, Xu Miaojin knew that she must not have known that Xu Zengshou's letter to her contained information about the capital.

Because according to the usual practice, after the letter arrived at the palace smoothly, it had to be inspected to confirm that there was no danger before it was handed over to Xu Miaoyun.

Someone must have taken the secret letter and just gave the family letter to my sister, otherwise she would have discovered it long ago!

"Sister, my sister will definitely write a letter home for you, but it's really inconvenient to be two thousand miles away from Beiping Mansion, and..."

Xu Miaojin looked at Xu Miaoyun and said: "Besides, His Royal Highness King Yan is a vassal king after all, if he writes too many letters, will he be said to be making friends with the vassal king?"

Hearing this, Xu Miaoyun was also a little worried, "What you said is true, I didn't think carefully... Sigh, once you enter the Hou family, it's as deep as the sea, let alone the royal family of princes."

Xu Miaojin comforted and said: "Sister, don't be sad. We are a family anyway. Although we can't see each other often, no one can change the family relationship."

"Who said it wasn't..."

At this time, a eunuch came to the door and winked at the maid who was serving inside the room, and the maid quietly walked to the door and listened to the eunuch whispering something.

Xu Miaoyun didn't want to continue this sad topic, so she asked the maid, "What's the matter?"

The maid took a Wanfu gift and said: "Returning to the princess, there was news from the palace just now that the vassal kings and princes were invited to the palace for a dinner on New Year's Eve.

The concubine could also accompany her, and she also said that if she could make dishes and imperial meals by herself to serve His Majesty and reunite with the whole family, that would be very good. "

Xu Miaoyun understood as soon as she heard it, Zhu Yuanzhang hosted a banquet in the palace on the [-]th night, and the prince's family could attend.

Although the words are polite, the meaning that can be expressed is to let the princesses cook and make dishes in person.

But this is not surprising, Zhu Yuanzhang also did this when he held family banquets before.

It's just that at that time, Queen Ma was there, and the queen brought this group of daughters-in-law and princesses to cook,
Zhu Yuanzhang and his sons sat together and chatted about the household chores. When the meals were ready, the whole family ate and drank together.

At that time, the atmosphere of the family banquet was very good, happy and harmonious, warm and comfortable.

However, with the death of Empress Ma and the retirement of adult princes one after another, it has been a long time since such a large-scale family banquet has been held in the palace.

Xu Miaoyun asked suspiciously: "Is this His Majesty's will?"

The maid replied: "Reporting to the princess, this is the order of His Royal Highness, the grandson of the emperor, and the person who came here also ordered to keep quiet, especially not to let His Majesty know..."

Xu Miaojin, who was listening on the side, showed a faint smile,
This kind of deceiving His Majesty can only be done by that one!
