Yan Yan saw that he had persuaded his uncle so easily, but he didn't think much about it, and hurriedly ordered someone to go to Lanxin Courtyard to inform Ma and Yan Yu and others.

At that time, Yan Yu was also pestering Ma's coquettishness, and when she saw Angelica coming to pass the word, she was busy dressing up.

Because it took some time for Yan Yu to freshen up and dress up, when Yan Yan and his party arrived at the gate of the palace, the Yun family was already waiting.

Unlike in the past, the Yun family only came to Yun Ze this time, and his wife returned to his hometown some time ago, saying that his mother was sick.

Yan Peng obviously knew about this, so as soon as they met, he asked if there was news from his hometown, how was the old man's health, etc., after all, the sick one was also Yan Peng's aunt, and he was a very close elder.

"If you want me to say, uncles and aunts might as well come to the capital, and the left and right cousins have also entered Beijing, and the days will definitely get better and better in the future, and everyone can take care of each other together." Yan Peng persuaded.

The most important thing is that it can also alleviate the homesickness of the queen mother, speaking of which the brothers and sisters of the Yun family now only have one queen mother and an uncle from their hometown, so Yan Peng proposed so.

Of course, Yun Ze also knows this.

Don't look at him as the queen mother's nephew, and he also borrowed a lot of light from the queen mother, but the relationship with the queen mother is not very close, more of awe, awe of the high imperial power.

The main reason is that he grew up in his hometown since he was a child, and when he was sensible, his grandfather had passed away, and although the Yun family had a queen mother, his grandfather was admitted to the imperial examination, and the official position could not be inherited. Therefore, as soon as the grandfather was gone, their Yun family returned to their hometown in the countryside.

Yun Ze also had a father and uncle, but his father and uncle stopped at Xiucai, and Xiucai couldn't come out to be an official, so they opened a academy in their hometown, focusing on cultivating the children of the clan.

Yun Ze is one of the best, after more than ten years of hard study, finally passed the Tongjin Shi, and after a few years outside, the Queen Mother found a way to transfer into the capital, and now he is a five-grade Langzhong in the Ministry of Officials.

Because Yun Ze has only been in Beijing for three years, and before this, he and the Queen Mother have not met twice, so the aunt and nephew are more strangers, in this case, if his father enters Beijing, it will naturally be better, after all, his father is the only surviving brother of the Queen Mother's aunt, and the love of growing up together since childhood is naturally different from him.

"Okay, Master Hou, let's talk about it on the way, the old lady is afraid that it should be in a hurry." Ma interrupted the conversation between Yan Peng and Yun Ze.

Knowing that Yun Ze's wife was young because of her mother-in-law in her hometown, she couldn't come to attend the Queen Mother's birthday, and Ma was even more glad that she brought Yan Yu here, otherwise one or two of her mother's family would not come and they were all because of her poor health, so it would be strange that the Queen Mother could be happy.

Not to mention, let Ma be right.

No, Yan Yan and his entourage entered Cining Palace, and when they knelt on the main hall and kowtowed to celebrate their birthday, the Queen Mother glanced at the people on the ground, "Get up, why are there so many fewer people this year?" ”

"The Queen Mother, the little nephew's dependents are still in their hometown and have not returned, and the father of the family entrusted someone to bring some hometown specialties to the Queen Mother, as well as a peace charm, and instructed the little one to kowtow to the Queen Mother, wishing the Queen Mother a long and healthy life." When Yun Ze got up and saluted again, he was persuaded by the Queen Mother, "That's it, your father is my brother-in-law, I can't stand this, bring your things." ”

Seeing that Yun Ze was still about to kneel down to perform the national salute, Li Cong on the side said: "Cousin Aze, those of you here are either family members or serious relatives, there is no need to perform the national salute, listen to the queen mother, and present the things from your hometown to make the queen mother happy." ”

Seeing this, Yun Ze hurriedly handed out a gift list, and an apricot yellow peace charm was placed on the gift list.

Aunt Rong, who was beside the Queen Mother, didn't wait for words to speak, so she took a few steps forward and took the things and put them in the hands of the Queen Mother, and then ordered the eunuch to carry the things up.

The Queen Mother saw that there were fresh fruits from her hometown on the gift list, such as longan, lychee, plantain, mango, etc., in addition to a number of various dried fruits, but she was also very happy, but there was one point, she knew that it was not easy to send some lychees from her hometown under the existing conditions, and it was too laborious and costly.

"That's it for this year, don't do it in the future, your parents are okay?" The Queen Mother touched the peace charm in her hand, and then looked at these things that the eunuch carried up, and her eyes were a little red.

Since entering the palace, she has only met her brother in her hometown once, and it is impossible not to miss it.

"Okay, my father is also worried about the Queen Mother, and I ask the Queen Mother to take care." Yun Ze knew very well that it was the Queen Mother that he relied on today, so he took the trouble to prepare these birthday gifts.

After all, he has a thin foundation, and he can't fight others with financial and manpower, so he can only make a little trick.

"It's still my cousin who has a heart, I know what the queen mother misses, the queen mother is in a bitter summer these days, and these things you sent can coincidentally solve the urgent needs of the queen mother." Li Cong said with a smile.

"Thank you to the emperor for his false praise, I dare not be ashamed." Yun Ze bowed and replied.

"Something is just a thought, but it's rare to have a heart." The Queen Mother picked up a dried mango and put it in her mouth and chewed it, "Yes, it's the taste of childhood." ”

After speaking, the Queen Mother ordered people to distribute these fresh fruits to everyone, and then ordered Yan Yan to get up and sit down.

The so-called sitting is to sit on the ground, there is a low table in front of him, there are several kinds of melon and fruit snacks on the low table, and when Yan Yan and a few people sit down, the palace maid is placing the southern fruits sent by Yun Ze on each low table.

This is the first time Yan Yan has seen lychees, longans, loquats, etc. since he came to ancient times, the original owner had never seen it before, but Yan Yan forgot it, the thing was put in front of her, and when she saw that others were eating, she also picked up a lychee and skillfully peeled the shell and sent it to her mouth, this behavior fell in Yan Yu's eyes, she always felt weird.

"Eldest sister, have you eaten these before?"

Yan Yan's heart sank, but he quickly reacted, "No, it doesn't depend on how everyone eats, follow and learn." ”

"No, but I see that you are very skillful, but it is a little unsightly." Yan Yu finally remembered what was wrong, the eldest sister's actions were not the same as usual.

Yan Yan really wanted to pat his head when he heard this, but he was careful not to control his mouth, and he was really a foodie.

When he was in a dilemma, it happened that Li Ji picked up a lychee and looked left and right, "Imperial grandmother, it turns out that this is a lychee?" It's the first time I've seen my grandson grow up like this. ”

"Not to mention you, I've only seen you twice, and speaking of which, I remembered a thing from the past. When Yan'er's father went to South Vietnam to fight, he ordered someone to send a few fresh fruits with an urgent courier of 800 miles, including lychees, and he was afraid that I didn't know these fruits, so he specially painted each fruit with the name and how to eat it, but unfortunately, I couldn't find the painting anymore. Li Cong said with emotion.

When Yan Yan heard this, he felt that something bad was going to happen.
