Chapter 197: A Family Reunion, Happy Endings
After staying in the queen mother's palace for a while, everyone was ready to go to the garden to attend the banquet.
In the garden, everyone gathered together, and although Zhan Xinlan's outfit was beautiful, it was not so easy to stand out in this place where there were so many beautiful women.
Zhan Xinlan was bored wandering in the garden, and heard someone calling her name from a distance, and when she turned around, she saw that it was Zhan Xinyue, and she was holding a little boy with pink carvings beside her.
"Sister Xinyue, is this your child? It's really cute. Zhan Xinlan smiled lightly.
"Yes, Zeyu, call my aunt quickly." Zhan Xinyue said with a light smile.
"Well, Zeyu has seen his aunt." He Zeyu saluted respectfully.
"Oh, it's really good, I didn't expect my sister to have a cute child so soon, I don't know how many brothers my grandfather has, but he also entered the palace?" Zhan Xinlan smiled lightly.
"It's all here, the garden in the south of the capital, and my uncle and aunt, they are all sitting together and chatting, Zeyu is playful, and I'm afraid that he will get into trouble, so I came out." Zhan Xinyue said with a light smile.
"I've seen the princess of Xiangyang, but I don't know if this girl is ......" At this time, a woman in a scarlet dress passing by said with a smile.
"Sister Shen doesn't have to be polite, this is the daughter of my second uncle's family, Xinlan." Zhan Xinyue said with a smile.
"Xinlan, this is Shen Xiang, the eldest lady of the Marquis of Ningyuan's mansion, and Sister Shen's pipa can be called a national hand."
"Xinyue, don't praise me, Sister Xinlan comes to the palace for the first time, you can accompany her more, and I will also prepare a song for the Queen Mother for a while." After finishing speaking, Shen Xiang bowed slightly, and then walked away.
Seeing Shen Xiang walking away, Zhan Xinlan said: "Sister, this is the first time I have come to the palace, and I don't know any etiquette and rules. It's been so long since I've been back to Kyoto, and I haven't seen my grandmother, uncle, or aunt, can my sister take me there now? ”
"Okay, let's go now."
The two walked to the garden, and saw the family in the pavilion talking and laughing happily, and the old lady Zhan coaxed by Gu Qinghong was very happy.
"Maternal grandfather, maternal grandfather, maternal mother told Qinghong, saying that maternal grandfather is a majestic general, and he is very good at fighting bad guys, can my grandson touch your hand?" Gu Qinghong said in a milky voice.
"Yes, yes, of course, my precious grandchildren can do whatever they want. This Qinghong's intelligence is really similar to that of Birch when he was young. Mrs. Zhan smiled lightly.
"It is said that nephews are more like uncles, and it is good to be like our Zhan family." Zhan Tianhong said with a smile.
"The second brother is right. It's just that I haven't seen my sister and brother-in-law until now, and I miss the hibiscus cake at my brother-in-law's house. Gu Qinghong said with a small mouth.
Qinghong's small appearance, but he inherited all the advantages of Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Gu, at a young age, this appearance is already very outstanding.
At this time, Gu
Pei Qing and Xiao Ziming also walked in, "It turns out that Qinghong wants to eat hibiscus cake?" That brother-in-law bought it for you every day, okay? Xiao Ziming smiled lightly.
"Third brother-in-law, it's Qinghong who didn't make it clear, Qinghong likes the hibiscus cake made by my sister Princess Rui, my mother said that my sister has married King Rui, I can't say that it is my sister's house, if I want to say that it is my brother-in-law's house." Gu Qinghong blinked his eyes and said.
When Gu Qinghong said this, Xiao Ziming's face was embarrassed, he originally thought that he could be close to Gu Qinghong, but he didn't expect that he would refuse to appreciate it at all.
"My grandfather and two elder brothers came back from afar, Pei Qing has never been to ask for peace, and today again, Pei Qing will say goodbye to a few people." Gu Peiqing stepped forward with a light smile and saluted.
"You young people have young people's affairs, and it is understandable that you don't have time to ask for peace, not to mention, Xiao Shizi will soon marry Princess Linghua, as a side concubine, but you have to handle it well, and you must listen to Princess Linghua's teachings in the future, don't lose the face of the Taifu Mansion." The old man said in a deep voice.
It stands to reason that Grandpa Zhan Laoguo is so old, he shouldn't have anything to do with Gu Peiqing's junior, but when he knew that his daughter had been killed by the Feng family for so many years, and this Gu Peiqing had murdered Gu Yunxin several times, he didn't like this titular granddaughter.
"Yes, Pei Qing will remember his grandfather's teachings, and he will definitely listen to Princess Linghua's teachings." Gu Peiqing obediently agreed.
"Well, that's good." Zhan Lao Guogong said in a deep voice.
After a while, Zhan Xinyue walked over with Zhan Xinlan, and Zhan Xinlan stepped forward with a decent smile on her face, "My granddaughter has seen grandmother, uncle, aunt, uncle, and aunt. ”
"Xinlan? You've also entered the palace? Mrs. Zhan raised her eyebrows slightly.
Zhan Xinlan appeared here, Mrs. Zhan was very puzzled, she had never participated in this palace feast, but today she was dressed in such a glorious way to enter the palace, I hope it would be good not to cause trouble.
"Yes, just now the prince and the princess were invited by the people in the queen mother's palace, fortunately I met the eldest sister in the garden, otherwise I would have lost it." Zhan Xinlan smiled lightly.
"Since you have entered the palace, then follow us well, don't walk around, so as not to mess around." Mrs. Zhan said in a deep voice.
"Yes, Grandmother. The granddaughter made a note of it. Zhan Xinlan said respectfully.
When Zhan Xinlan was young, she had already gone to the border with her parents, and she had not come back for many years, and it was normal for her to be emotionally estranged from Mrs. Zhan, and Zhan Lao Guogong was also familiar with her because she had been at the border for more than two years, otherwise she would not have brought back all the children in the second room when she returned to Kyoto this time.
Suddenly, King Rui and Gu Yunxin also walked towards the pavilion, "Grandfather, grandmother, father, mother, uncle, aunt, Yunxin has asked you to say goodbye." Gu Yunxin smiled lightly and stepped forward and saluted.
"Come on, your clothes are really good-looking today, this Jiang
The purple clothes are even more extravagant. Mrs. Zhan said with a smile.
"My grandmother always praises me like this, Yun Xin is going to be shy." Gu Yunxin said coquettishly.
"You girl, what is there to be ashamed of? Isn't what my grandmother said the truth? ”
"What my grandmother said is naturally the truth, the lady is beautiful and incomprehensible, and it is my blessing to be able to marry such a lady." Rui Wang said with a smile.
"Well, it's still the prince who speaks to the point." Mrs. Zhan Tai said with satisfaction.
"Lord Wang, did you go to see the Queen Mother and the Emperor just now?" Mrs. Gu said softly.
"Yes, mother-in-law, as soon as I entered the palace gate just now, Gonggong Kang, who was next to the imperial grandmother, came to pick it up. My grandmother also asked me to pass on some new tea to my grandmother. After finishing speaking, King Rui waved his hand lightly, and Jiang Xiao respectfully stepped forward and delivered the tea to Mrs. Zhantai.
"It's really annoying that the Queen Mother remembers."
"The imperial grandmother said that she is a relative to her grandmother, but because of her identity, she can't say that everything the Zhan family has today is based on nepotism, so you have to be unfamiliar on weekdays to avoid suspicion, and please don't be cold." King Rui smiled lightly.
"How can it be, it is not easy for the Queen Mother to be in the palace, and the Queen Mother's concerns are naturally understood." Mrs. Zhan said with a smile.
Zhan Xinlan on the side was still immersed in Gu Yunxin's purple princess dress, this dress was really good-looking, if she could have the opportunity to wear it on her body in this life, she would be satisfied even if she died.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, Qinghong wants to eat the hibiscus cake in your house, can I go to your house to eat?" Gu Qinghong tilted his little head and said.
"Of course you can, your sister is in charge of Rui Wangfu, and Qinghong can go whenever he wants." King Rui smiled and touched Gu Qinghong's head.
Seeing this, Gu's mother was very surprised, on weekdays, Gu Qinghong rarely let people touch his head, but today he let King Rui touch his head. A few days ago, the wives of officials from the DPRK and China came to visit, and they wanted to tell a few concubines of the Gu family about their relatives, and touched Gu Qinghong's head, but he was not happy for several days.
"Mother, look, my brother-in-law agreed." Gu Qinghong said with a smile.
"Well, I see." Gu's mother touched Gu Qinghong's little head dotingly, and then looked at Gu Yunxin and said, "I heard that Qingyue married Princess Chonghua of Beiliang, and now she has also returned to Kyoto?" ”
"Yes, he lives in Feng Mansion now, I heard that he went to the household department a few days ago to officially change his name, and there will be no Gu Qingyue in this world in the future, there is only Feng Xingbang." Gu Yunxin said lightly.
As soon as the words fell, Gu Yunxin saw a faint melancholy on Gu's father's face, although that person was not related to him, but after all, they had lived together for many years, and there was always a relationship.
"Father, I wonder if my aunt is okay now?" Gu Peiqing couldn't see that they were so happy, so he interrupted their conversation.
"Feng has already left the Gu Mansion, she has nothing to do with the Gu family in the future, if you want to see your aunt
Mother, you can go to Feng's mansion to find it. Old Madam Gu said displeased.
Zhan Xinlan looked at her two elder brothers standing on one side, unable to speak, and felt very unhappy, "Uncle, my two elder brothers have also been trained in the army for a long time, can you arrange some positions for them in the army?" ”
"The army in Kyoto is an official rank obtained by virtue of military merits, if Tianfang and Tianlei want to gain a firm foothold in the army in Kyoto, they must have merit, you two are willing to start as soldiers?" Ding Guogong raised his eyes and said.
"Whatever the uncle says, both of us brothers will obey." Zhan Tianfang said respectfully.
After all, this is Kyoto, although they are also the descendants of the Zhan family, but the people of Kyoto only know Zhan Tianlin, Zhan Tianhong and Zhan Tianxiang, and they don't know the existence of Zhan Tianfang and Zhan Tianlei at all.
"Well, that's good. Tomorrow, you will go to the army with Tianlin, and let him arrange it for you. Ding Guogong said lightly.
Hearing this, Zhan Xinlan was very dissatisfied in her heart, why, they are also the descendants of the Zhan family, why can the three sons of the Dafang family be generals in the army, but her two elder brothers cannot?
"Uncle is doing this, it's inevitably a bit too bullying, my two elder brothers are adjutant generals at the border, but Uncle let them be soldiers in Kyoto? Could it be that the uncle is afraid that my two brothers will rob you of the credit of your three sons? Zhan Xinlan said hurriedly.
Hearing Zhan Xinlan say this, Zhan Tianfang frowned slightly, and then slapped Zhan Xinlan in the face, "Don't mess around, apologize to the uncle." ”
"Apologize? You actually hit me? Woo woo woo ......" After finishing speaking, Zhan Xinlan ran away crying......
