If Bai Hongqi can use the word "guest", it must not be the prince of the clan who will come, but probably a first-class figure among the nobles. Bayi Middle School? Wenwang ???.? ８?１?ｚ??．? But Shainin shouldn't have gone in anyway.

She entered the West Side Hall to rest, Bai Hongqi glanced at her, and saw that she was not smug in appearance, and everything was still as usual.

"Niangniang is tired today."

Xie Ning smiled and said: "I'm so tired, I'm afraid that everyone in the palace wants to suffer it." ”

Bai Hongqi also smiled. From the face of the concubine, I really can't see how much she is hiding in her heart. She just held down the matter of the auspicious costume and didn't say a word. If he was a person of a different age, Bai Hongqi would not be surprised, but the concubine was not yet twenty years old, and she had been smooth sailing all the way, so it was surprising that she could be so calm.

The emperor didn't like to go to the harem before, if you think of a beautiful woman, most of them are to summon Changning Palace, this habit has been for several years, but since the concubine has made an exception, count this half a year, more than half of the days must be spent in the harem, of course, it will not be elsewhere, that is, Yong'an Palace.

Bai Hongqi asked someone to serve tea, and said a few words with Xie Ning, but Xie Ning urged him to go out: "Father-in-law Bai has something to do, just go and get busy, I won't be bored here." ”

Bai Hongqi confessed and went out, and the etiquette seemed much more thoughtful than before. But before Xie Ning took a sip of tea, he came in again: "The emperor invited Niangniang to the study." ”

Xie Ning's legs were weak when he got up, and he almost didn't stand firmly, but fortunately he held on to the handle of the chair. Bai Hongqi wanted to reach out to help, but when he saw that she was standing firm, he didn't see it, so as to save her embarrassment.

What else could this be? Definitely tired. If you enjoy more honor than others, you are destined to work harder than others.

Others looked at the emperor as the real dragon emperor, and they didn't know how happy they were sitting on the dragon chair. Bai Hongqi has served the emperor for many years, but he knows how difficult it is for the emperor, so he won't say anything before he ascends the throne, even after he ascends the throne, how many times has the emperor been really happy?

Xie Ning came to Changning Hall and came to cook, when she entered the house, she also saw an unpacked tea cup next to the chair against the east wall, presumably the emperor met and talked to her just left and she came in, so the eunuchs didn't have time to clean up here.

Xie Ning just entered the door, and the emperor smiled and said, "The concubine is here." ”

Xie Ning couldn't help but smile and said: "Don't make fun of people, the concubine has to thank the emperor for the dishes, the sea bass and white jade shrimp taste very refreshing, and the concubine and several children eat deliciously." ”

The emperor smiled, but this smile was not for her, but over her and looked behind her.

Xie Ning turned her head to look, and sure enough, there was a person standing behind her, and she didn't know how long she had been standing silently.

Xie Ning had a look of surprise, disbelief and ecstasy on his face, and he half-opened his mouth for a while before he called: "Little uncle? ”

The man standing behind him was wearing a cyan six-rank official costume, a little darker and thinner than Xie Ning remembered, and there was a smile in his eyes. Although he is also in his thirties, he is still like a big child when he laughs, Xie Ning has always been close to his little uncle, firstly because his little uncle said that he is an elder, but he is amiable and cute to get along with and more like an ordinary generation, and secondly, because his little uncle is very similar to his deceased biological mother and siblings. At this moment, when he suddenly saw his relatives appear in front of him, Xie Ning's sadness and joy were as strong as his mouth, and his mouth was smiling, but his tears were falling down like beads with broken threads.

"Look, why are you crying?" Lin Jiyun lowered his voice and said, "It's a lot bigger, I remember that you only reached my chest when I went out that year, and now it's up to my shoulder." I heard that today is a good day for you, so I rushed into the palace on purpose, but I didn't come to draw you to tears. ”

Xie Ning hurriedly raised his hand to wipe his face, and he couldn't remember to take out the handkerchief in a hurry.

"When did my uncle come? Why is there no sound at all? Shocking. She looked at the emperor, and then at the half-drunk tea bowl: "Did you ...... in the study just now?"

Lin Jiyun said with a smile: "I came just in time, I heard that Gonggong Bai said that you can't avoid suspicion, so the emperor specially asked you to come over to meet him." ”

"But Grandpa Bai didn't tell me just now that the person who came here was you." If I had known that she hadn't come over earlier, what would I have been doing in the West Side Palace?

Xie Ning understood that these people were all colluding, so he waited to see him laugh.

It's really embarrassing, whether it's the emperor, Bai Hongqi, not to mention the little uncle, they are all over a hundred years old, and they are still so stubborn. Of course, although Bai Hongqi is also at fault, the mastermind is not stubborn. Although the emperor usually jokes occasionally, after all, the emperor wants to respect his identity, and the only one who can come up with such a bad idea is Lin Jiyun, a big urchin who jumps out.

But looking at Lin Jiyun, she couldn't get angry, she just felt ridiculous.

Lin Jiyun saw Xie Ning through the window just now when she entered the Changning Palace. If he hadn't known that this was his niece, he really wouldn't have dared to recognize him for a while. Through the carved window lattice, a Juanjuan lady got off the sedan chair, followed the eunuch who led the way into the palace gate, and then she entered the west side hall, Lin Jiyun kept staring, and she didn't even blink.

Really, it's been a long time. She has been in the Lin family since she was a little bit old, Lin Jiyun was angry about what happened to her sister at that time, although her brother had already gone to the Xie family to seek justice, he also secretly entangled a group of playmates to pit the second and third children of the Xie family. Xie Lao Er is greedy for cups, Xie Lao San is greedy for money and small profits, and the Xie family is just his brother-in-law and Old Man Xie, but these two good people died early, leaving a nest of things that are not successful.

Xie Ning wiped his face, anyway, there were no outsiders present, and he didn't feel embarrassed, stretched out his hand and said, "Since you said that you came to congratulate me, where is the congratulatory gift?" ”

Lin Jiyun said with a smile: "The congratulatory gift is too big, I didn't bring it into the palace today, I'll talk about it another day." ”

Still with this, who knows which day it will be changed?

But as soon as he said this, Xie Ning was also curious, I don't know what kind of gift this big gift is?

The emperor smiled and said, "As soon as you relatives saw each other, they put me aside. Ji Yun rarely returns to Beijing, and he is not busy leaving, I still have a lot to ask you. Bai Hongqi, let the dining room take care of the banquet, I am very happy today, and I have to drink two cups with Ji Yun. ”

According to the law of the country, Lin Jiyun is a six-rank official of the same size, and he is the emperor's courtier, and it is obviously unseemly to be so casual at the moment. If you count according to human feelings, although Lin Jiyun is one or two years younger than the emperor, he is Xie Ning's uncle, and he is also a generation higher than the emperor. But the account of this title can't be calculated, and the careful calculation is confused, and the emperor calls him by his name seems close, and Xie Ning doesn't think there is anything wrong with this. The dining room did make great efforts to renovate the table, but in fact, the effort did not have to be full of delicacies from the table mountain, and the calendula and silver plate were called hospitality. There are only seven or eight heated dishes for dinner at this table, which is enough for three people. There is also wine, but as soon as Xie Ning smelled it, he knew that it was not the wine in the palace, the aroma was wrong, and the wine tasted very strong.

Lin Jiyun didn't plan to give Xie Ning to drink this wine, so he waved his hand directly and said, "You can drink something by yourself, this wine is drunk by men, you can't drink it." ”

Shainin glanced at him.

The emperor smiled silently and watched from the side.

Xie Ning saw his relatives, it was different, even the eyebrows and eyes were different from usual.

When Mrs. Lin was there, she was very coquettish, and she loved to be coquettish in front of her aunt, who raised her since childhood. However, after all, Mrs. Lin is square and strict, but Xie Ning is more agile in front of her little uncle.

Since there are only his own people, Xie Ning speaks more casually: "When did my little uncle arrive in Beijing?" Where did the fight come from? Is there anyone else in the family who has come to the capital? ”

The family she is talking about obviously does not refer to the Xie family, but to the Lin family. She grew up in the Lin family, and the Lin family is a family in her opinion, while the Xie family is just a troublesome relative.

"For the time being, I'm the only one here, but don't worry, your uncle will soon enter Beijing, and the family may live in Beijing for a long time at that time."

Another piece of good news, Xie Ning was surprised and delighted, turned his head to look at the emperor, and the emperor nodded slightly to her, proving that what Lin Jiyun said was true.

The eldest uncle has also been in office for three years, and if he is evaluated well, it is not a pipe dream to go further. Moreover, my uncle has been released from foreign office for several years in a row, which can be regarded as a shrewd and good deed, and it is not impossible to be transferred to Beijing.

Besides, the people sitting in the Changning Hall now say yes, then it will be allowed.

The unexpected joy made Xie Ning have a great appetite, and the food was very fragrant. In fact, she really didn't eat much at the end of the day, and people are in good spirits at happy events, everything is pleasing to the eye, and everything is sweet.

Lin Jiyun saw that she had eaten two large pieces of crystal duck breast meat in a row, and couldn't help but turn her head and say to the emperor: "The minister has something unknown...... May I ask the emperor, if the concubine has always eaten in this way, I am afraid that the harem diet will only be the amount. ”

Xie Ning still has a piece of duck meat in his mouth, and he is not swallowing it.

What kind of uncle is this, you still think she eats too much?

The emperor couldn't help laughing, and finally didn't add fuel to the fire, and motioned to Bai Hongqi to give Lin Jiyun a dish. Bai Hongqi rolled up his sleeves and scooped a spoonful of fish fillets for Lin Jiyun. The fish fillet is soft and tender, if you use chopsticks to clamp it, the fish fillet will not be forced, and the fish fillet will be broken if it is heavy.

Lin Jiyun smiled and said, "Thank you, father-in-law, in fact, I am not used to being served, and I eat more deliciously by myself." Bai Hongqi smiled and took a step back and stood behind the emperor again.

Lin Jiyun will not be cold in the place, talk about what he saw and heard on the road, talk about one or two new things that others rarely hear, and eat a lively meal.

Xie Ning still has a lot to ask, the little uncle is too treacherous, Xie Ning asked him so many words, but when he thought about it, he answered so many questions, and the others were either mixed up or answered not what he asked.

I don't know where he has been in the past few months, but in short, he will never stay at home honestly.
