Chapter 343: King An's Mansion
"Feast me?" Yun Xi was a little puzzled: "What did Uncle Twenty-two invite me for?" ”
However, although Yun Xi was puzzled, since it was his uncle who invited him, he would not refuse. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoNot only is it inconvenient to excuse himself, but more importantly, he can eat things that he can't eat in the palace when he eats at the clan's home.
As the emperor, Yunxi has high requirements for him, and many of his enjoyments are not as good as those of the prince. For example, beef, in fact, beef can be eaten, but it must be an old cow before it can be slaughtered. However, the literati felt that since the world protected the cultivated cattle, the emperor should set an example and not eat beef. And Zhu Yuanzhang didn't eat beef when he was still there, so Yun Xi could only follow Zhu Yuanzhang's steps and not eat beef in the palace. And the clans don't have so many requirements.
So Yun Hee is very interested in going to the banquet of his uncles and brothers.
Yun Xi finished the folds at hand, and seeing that the time was not early, he instructed the auxiliary officer to change into the regular clothes of the Ming Dynasty and leave the palace.
Yun Xi came to King An's Mansion in a carriage, Zhu Ying and several other princes were already waiting at the door, and when they saw Yun Xi, they hurriedly greeted him and saluted. Yun Xi of course helped him up, and at the same time said, "What is Uncle Twenty-two doing with so many courtesies." And this is the gate of your Anwang Mansion, fortunately, no people are passing by now, otherwise why don't you know that I am here when I see you saluting? I can't bear to delay them in saluting. ”
Zhu Ying stood up and said: "Your Majesty is kind-hearted and kind to the people, quite like the style of his father back then. ”
Yun Xi smiled and said: "What kind of father's demeanor, my nephew is far worse than my grandfather!" ”
Gao Xu stood up and said with a smile: "Twenty-second uncle, let me say, don't salute at the gate of the mansion, the imperial brother is cute and cherishes the people." ”
Yun Xi said to Gao Xu: "Your mouth looks like honey, why is it so sweet today?" ”
Gao Xu said with a smile: "Look at what the imperial brother said, what the younger brother said is the truth, but there is no lie." ”
A few people were talking and laughing as they walked into the house.
Several people came to the hall, and Zhu Ying sent someone to tell the kitchen to start cooking immediately, and then chatted with Yun Xi and others.
After a while, the meals were all ready, and Zhu Ying ordered to start serving them one by one. Zhu Ying knew that Yunxi liked to eat beef and seafood, so the first dish was soup, and the second dish was beef. Then the third and fourth dishes are seafood.
Yunxi didn't need to hide his favorite meal in front of them, and immediately sandwiched a piece of beef into his mouth.
As soon as Yun Xi tasted it, he knew that it was the meat of a young cow, and the young cow could not be slaughtered according to the rules. But Yun Xi will never say it unless he has a sick brain. just praised: "Yes, the chef of King An's Mansion has made a good beef." Uncle Twenty-two, why don't you send this chef to the palace, so that I can also enjoy oral administration. ”
Zhu Ying smiled and said: "If you are not allowed to kill cattle in the palace, what is the use of you entering the palace?" Wouldn't it be better to stay in my Anwang Mansion. ”
While the two were talking, Princess An Xu Mengyu came out to meet Yunxi. Yun Xi naturally didn't let her do the full salute. Xu Mengyu smiled and said a few words, and then retired.
The uncles and nephews continued to eat.
Xu Mengyu returned to his bedroom in the backyard, and was just about to continue talking to the person sitting next to him, when someone from King An's Mansion came to ask for instructions, and he could only deal with things first.
When she finished dealing with this matter, the little girl sitting next to her said, "Third sister, is the palace so busy?" Since I came to King An's Mansion, I have been interrupted three times by the people who returned to the matter. ”
Of course, this person is Xu Miaojin. Xu Miaojin is lively and active, but after Xu Mengyu married Zhu Ying, she had a reasonable reason to go out, and often went out of the house in the name of going to the third sister. Of course, it's hard to say whether he really came to Xu Mengyu in the end, after all, the subordinate is the subordinate, and he doesn't dare to disobey the master's order. But today, she did come to Xu Mengyu as soon as she left the palace early in the morning. Before Zhu Ying invited Yunxi to the banquet, he arrived at King An's Mansion.
Xu Mengyu said: "Which is the busy palace of King An." Because there are no other concubines in this palace, and there are no parents-in-law, there are very few things, if you marry other families in the future, there are in-laws, and there are sisters-in-law on the left and right, then you are really busy! ”
"Today is just a banquet for King An, His Majesty and a few princes, so he seems to be busy."
Xu Miaojin also knew about Zhu Ying's banquet, and said, "What is my brother-in-law doing at the banquet for Your Majesty?" ”
When Xu Mengyu heard this, his expression suddenly became a little gloomy, and he said, "Don't ask." ”
Xu Miaojin looked at Xu Mengyu's expression, and was even more curious about Zhu Ying's reason for inviting Yunxi, but knowing that Xu Mengyu had such a look, he probably couldn't ask, so he didn't ask.
Xu Mengyu also changed the topic and said: "Now that I am married, you will be left with the daughter of our Xu family, especially if you are not engaged yet, you have to hurry, otherwise there will be no good ones." ”
Xu Miaojin's face immediately turned red when she heard her say this, but she came over and stretched out her hand as if she was tickling Xu Mengyu's itchy flesh, and said, "Third sister, you are because I used this to make fun of you a while ago, so now you want to take revenge!" ”
Xu Mengyu hid her hand and said with a smile: "The fourth sister is really smart, every time you come to Anwangfu in the future, I will make fun of you with this, until you get married, let you make fun of me, I will take it back with interest." ”
The two sisters made a fuss for a while, and Xu Mengyu said while panting: "But fourth sister, although I am making fun of you, what I said is also reasonable, you should hurry up." ”
Xu Miaojin twisted her head to the side and didn't speak.
Xu Mengyu continued: "But I also told my eldest brother about this, and now there are no very good sons and daughters of the nobles who are about the same age and are not engaged in the capital, and they are not worthy of you." ”
"I'm thinking, why don't you marry the royal family."
Of course, Xu Miaojin herself is inconvenient to speak, and this is the time for the maid to do it for her. Xu Miaojin's eldest maid Musk Yue said: "Third aunt and grandmother, but His Royal Highness King Tang and His Royal Highness King Ying have already decided, although His Royal Highness King Yi is not engaged, but he is three years younger than our young lady, it is not suitable." ”
Xu Mengyu immediately said: "Even if King Yi is about the same age as the fourth sister, you can't marry the fourth sister to King Yi!" King Yi has a bad character and is full of evil deeds, how can I never push my sister into the net fire kang! ”
Musk Yue said, "But in this case, there will be no one. ”
Xu Mengyu said: "There are still some, but they are just people of the lower generation." ”
Xu Miaojin immediately turned her head and looked at Xu Mengyu incredulously. Musk Yue also said: "The prince of the lower generation? So how does that fit? Isn't that a bad guy? ”
Xu Mengyu said: "The royal family doesn't pay attention to this. Isn't King Qin Han's daughter the county lord of Chang'an married to Li Jinglong's son? They are also a generation behind, but the head of Chang'an County is the same generation as Li Jinglong. ”
"And there are many people who are good at the royal family, so there is enough room for choice."
"However, if you have to inherit the throne of the prince in the future, only the prince of Qi and the fourth sister are the same age. Although the prince of Qi has some eyes on him, he also has the ability, and he is not as evil as King Qi, so he is a good candidate. ”
Musk Yue said: "Our young lady does not ask for the position of prince, but the person must be good." ”
Xu Mengyu said: "Then the choice is not small. The Qin Domain, the Jin Domain, and the Zhou Domain all had several county kings of the same age. In addition, King Heng and his fourth sister are of the same age, so they can also be considered. ”
Then Xu Mengyu said with a smile: "Actually, I think Gao Sui is not bad, and he is not engaged, so you can consider it." ”
Xu Miaojin pounced over again and said, "Third sister, you're joking again!" Look, I still didn't spare you this time! Gao Sui is Zhu Di's third son and their eldest sister's own son, if Xu Miaojin marries Zhu Gaosui, she will have to call her own sister her mother, so she immediately heard that Xu Mengyu was making fun of her again, and Xu Miaojin pounced again.
The two sisters quarreled for a while, and Xu Mengyu said, "I'm not joking with you." Now that the prince of Qi is in the front hall, do you want to go and see it in person? If you think it's okay, I'll tell the eldest brother to let the eldest brother go and find out what King Qi means. ”
