Chapter 439: Brother and Sister Who Have Been Separated for Many Years
Jiang Manrong asked, "How long will this climate last?" ”
Nangong Youdao: "Cold weather, we are serious. If the royal family members do not give an answer quickly and agree to move, such cold will continue. ”
Jiang Manrong twisted his eyebrows slightly. The foundation of the royal family is here, and how can it be so easy for them to agree to emigrate. It seems that this cold weather is going to last for a long time!
Then the servant came in and said, "Lunch is ready."
The three of them arrived at the dining hall, and Dudu was already sitting at the table.
The hot pot and the charcoal stove in the house make it very warm in the dining room.
Nangong You doesn't like spicy food, Ye Xiaoyan likes spicy food. Although Nangong is accommodating to Ye Xiaoyan, what she eats, what he eats. However, Ye Xiaoyan still ordered someone to create a Tai Chi arc-shaped mandarin duck pot, with clear soup and red soup on the other.
Ye Xiaoyan asked Jiang Manrong: "Can you eat spicy?" ”
Jiang Manrong said: "It's okay." ”
Ye Xiaoyan asked her sister-in-law to make two kinds of dipping sauces each, a sesame oil garlic dish and a spicy saucer.
Ye Xiaoyan said: "Eat clear soup and dip it in spicy dishes; Eat red soup and dip garlic saucers. ”
Dudu raised his little face: "Then what if I eat red soup and spicy dishes?" ”
Ye Xiaoyan: "If you're not afraid of spicy, just eat it!" ”
Jiang Manrong saw that there was meat on the table and said, "National funeral, this is ...... Not okay? ”
Nangong Youdao: "Whatever!" Whoever wants to cure my sins, let him come. ”
Saying that, Nangong You also ordered someone to warm the pot of daughter Hong. One person pours a cup, and so does the doo.
The maids were serving the cooking and shabu slices on the side, and several people drank wine and ate meat.
Jiang Manrong saw Xiao Shizi, a child at such a young age, drinking and wanted to say something, but when she saw that King Xuan and Princess Xuan didn't say anything, she couldn't say anything.
Jiang Manrong is still eating hot pot for the first time, because there is a maid to serve her, but she doesn't have to do anything. She watched how they ate, and she followed suit.
In such a cold weather, eating hot pot, sure enough, this weather matches this food very well.
Ye Xiaoyan picked up the wine glass and said to Jiang Manrong: "It's the first time for the second imperial sister-in-law to come to our mansion for dinner, this is our own wine, I toast the second imperial sister-in-law!" ”
Jiang Manrong smiled politely and raised his glass: "Thank you Princess Xuan!" ”
In fact, it is not the first time she has come to King Xuan's Mansion to eat, once when King Xuan got married, she came to participate in the wedding banquet. However, in front of the current princess, she didn't like to mention the former princess, so she acquiesced that this was the first time.
Ye Xiaoyan said: "The second sister-in-law is not polite, you will call me Xiaoyan in the future." ”
Jiang Manrong said: "Then you can call me Manrong in the future!" ”
Ye Xiaoyan: "The second emperor's sister-in-law is older than me. ”
Jiang Manrong said with a smile: "Who dares to compare with the goddess!" ”
"Hahaha!" Nangong smiled and said: "Well said, I also toast the second emperor's sister-in-law!" ”
Dudu raised his glass: "I also toast the second emperor's sister-in-law!" ”
Jiang Manrong was stunned.
I want to say, you should call me second aunt.
Dudu said: "Actually, I am Xiaoyan's brother. ”
"Huh?"
Jiang Manrong was stunned!
Nangong Youdu saw that he said it himself, so he said: "He practiced and became like this." ”
Dudu gave him a blank look. You've just gone mad!
The reason why Dudu hurriedly revealed his identity was because Jiang Manrong treated him too much like her own son.
Last time at the housewarming banquet in the Four Princes' Mansion, Jiang Manrong always talked to him in a coaxing tone, and then took care of him meticulously, just about to feed him.
He couldn't stand it. But this is another kindness.
Just now, Jiang Manrong looked at him with loving eyes like a son from the moment he came in.
Dudu felt that it was nothing to show his identity so far. He killed so many people in the Four Princes' Mansion, could a four-year-old kid do it?
Ye Xiaoyan said: "When I was a child, I was picked up and adopted by Dudu. Later on, when we grew up, we were separated. We are long-lost non-biological brothers and sisters! ”
Jiang Manrong was completely stunned by this "secret".
No wonder! She said that a four-year-old child, how could he be so sensible, so mature, and have such high martial arts!
I see!!
Jiang Manrong raised his glass and said to Dudu: "I was offended before, please forgive me!" ”
Dudu waved his little hand: "It's okay! You just don't think of me as your son. ”
Jiang Manrong had an embarrassed smile on his face.
Ye Xiaoyan asked Jiang Manrong: "Your two sons were taken into the palace by Concubine De?" ”
Jiang Manrong smiled bitterly and nodded. She misses her son so much.
Ye Xiaoyan: "You entered the palace today, didn't you go to see them?" ”
Jiang Manrong shook his head: "I'm going, Concubine De is not in the palace." The palace maid said that she didn't dare to let me see my son without the instructions of Concubine De. ”
Last time in the Four Princes' Mansion, Jiang Manrong talked to her, and Ye Xiaoyan roughly knew what was going on.
Before, Concubine De was just a lady who was idle enough to plant grass, but so. Now don't talk about the harem, even in the previous dynasty, she also intervened. Then her attitude will only be tougher.
I can't see it! I didn't expect Concubine De to be a very tolerant and good master.
Nangong You said: "If you really love Nangong Yin, it's best to find a way to take him away from Concubine De and the second imperial brother." You'd better leave the Second Emperor Brother. ”
Ye Xiaoyan gave him a blank look. How to speak?
Nangong Yu said: "For the sake of Scholar Jiang, I will give you this advice." Now Concubine De and the second emperor brother rely on Sima Ce, wanting to win the crown prince or become the emperor directly. Sima Ce's ambition is not small, and the second emperor brother will eventually become a puppet in the hands of Sima Ce. Maybe he is already Sima Ce's puppet now! With Sima Ce's ambition, he would not let the daughter of Scholar Jiang become the empress, nor would he let your son become the next prince. If you leave that place of right and wrong early, you may be able to keep Scholar Jiang and Nangong Yin. If you want to be the queen bent on it, then you will only implicate Scholar Jiang and Nangong Yin. It won't end well! ”
Jiang Manrong bit his lip, held the hand of the wine glass, and trembled slightly.
In fact, she has already seen the clues of the situation in the side hall today.
Concubine De and Nangong Xu obviously rely entirely on Sima Ce.
Her father and Sima Ce were both first-class courtiers and members of the Cabinet, Nangong Xu did not rely on his father-in-law, but on Sima Ce. This already says something.
Nangong You continued: "You go back and tell Master Jiang what I said. He was a loyal servant, and traitors never looked down on loyal ministers. In the near future, I will take my father to seek medical treatment outside the mountains and rivers. Father said before that he wanted to go to the outside world to see, and he didn't want to be this emperor anymore. Therefore, after my father recovers, it is estimated that he will not come back! I don't want to see a loyal minister give his life in vain, and you persuade him not to have to fight with Sima Ce. Sima Ce wanted this world, so let it be better for him. ”
