Chapter 119 Entering the Palace(2/2)
The madam suddenly said: "Isn't this better? Just keep the family property."
Concubine Zhang naturally knew what she was talking about.
"If he is more mediocre, the palace will naturally have less fear, but can he keep the family property? Now the palace is a first-class palace, and my mother has to watch it become a second-rate or third-rate palace. In the end, the family property cannot be saved and is taken back by the emperor. Title certificate?"
Wang shuddered.
If the hereditary certificate was taken back by the royal family due to Sun Pingping, how could her family gain a foothold in the capital? Without being eaten alive by other nobles?
cannot.
"Mom, I think Brother Zhong is quite good. He is neither arrogant nor impetuous, and has a pure and kind nature. I really like him. From now on, you should listen to my elder brother."
The madam was stunned and said nothing.
The mother and daughter were talking when they heard the palace maid came to report that the emperor was coming to have dinner with them. Both the Tai Madam and Concubine Zhang were surprised.
Hurry and get people ready.
"Why did the emperor think of coming to Chengqian Palace for dinner?"
"I'm afraid I also want to see Sister Ning and Brother Zhong." After Concubine Zhang finished speaking, she ordered someone to call sister and brother Huo Xi.
When Huo Xi and her brother hurried back from the imperial garden, the emperor also arrived holding Mu Jie.
The two siblings knelt down and saluted.
Emperor Yongkang exclaimed with a smile and looked at the two siblings.
"Ha, you can't believe it!" Mu Jie said hello to the imperial concubine and the dowager, and rushed over to hug Huo Nian.
Then he shook his head proudly at Huo Xi, "I'm familiar with this palace. I'll take Sister Xi and Brother Nian for a nice walk later!"
"You didn't go to the Imperial College either?" Huo Nian was naturally happy to see familiar people in the palace.
"I knew that Brother Nian was going to the palace, so I also went to the palace to see my imperial grandfather coming!"
"Oh, it turns out you didn't come to see me specifically, you just took a look at it?" Emperor Yongkang looked at Mu Jie with dissatisfaction.
"No, no. I just came to see the emperor's grandfather. Then I stopped by to see Sister Xi and Brother Nian. This palace is so big, I'm afraid they will get lost."
"Is it possible that there are no eunuchs or concubines in my grandfather's palace to lead the way?"
Mu Jie blinked, "They are them, and I am me. I just happened to catch up, so I'll just do my best and do my best."
Emperor Yongkang couldn't help but laugh and slapped his little head. Even the imperial concubine looked at him and smiled.
"The Emperor didn't inform you in advance that he was coming to have dinner, which made me confused."
"It's not my fault, I'm just in time." After saying that, he glanced at Mu Jie.
Mu Jie's eyes widened, the emperor's grandfather actually imitated him in speaking!
The strange appearance made everyone laugh again.
Huo Nian couldn't help but go to see Emperor Yongkang secretly. This was the first time he had seen the emperor. He was not the one mentioned in books or performed on the stage. He was the real emperor. He couldn't help but go and take a look out of curiosity.
When Emperor Yongkang looked at him, he looked away in panic.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Emperor Yongkang laughed loudly, "This is your first time seeing me, tell me what you think."
Huo Nian swallowed nervously: "The Emperor is so majestic that people dare not look directly at him, and it is different from what is said outside."
"Oh, how did it spread outside?"
"It is said outside that the emperor is brave and good at fighting, and that he is a civilized and military strategist. He conquered foreign tribes in the north without fear of life and death, and that is why he has achieved this prosperous age. This kid thinks that the emperor is superior..."
"Hahaha……"
Concubine Zhang also laughed, "This child may think that the emperor is full of blood and looks scary, so he is not easy to get close to."
"My imperial grandfather is doing well!"
Mu Jie hurriedly added, which made Emperor Yongkang laugh heartily. He personally recruited the two children beside him, and sat one on the left and one on the right to accompany him to eat.
The meal was finished happily. I don't know if the food in the imperial dining room tasted particularly good or something, but everyone used it too much.
It was rare for Emperor Yongkang to have such leisure time, and he was in a good mood with his two children enjoying himself.
Thinking of the travelogue written by Huo Nian, "I heard that you can memorize the letter of advice written by Queen Wen?"
Huo Nian glanced at his sister, Huo Xi smiled at him, and he nodded to the emperor, "I can carry it."
"I can carry it too!" Mu Jie echoed loudly from the side.
"Okay, then you will also carry it."
In Chengqian Hall, it was very quiet, except for the cadence of the voices of two children endorsing.
Emperor Yongkang squinted his eyes and leaned on the couch, tapping his fingers on his thighs. It was not until the two children finished memorizing the contents of the book of exhortations to charity that Emperor Yongkang opened his eyes, with nostalgia in his eyes.
"This book of exhortations to good deeds was originally written by Empress Wen, instructing her children and grandchildren to cultivate virtue, promote good deeds, and practice righteousness. Later, after she passed away, I had this book widely praised in the mansions of nobles and nobles, as well as in various places in the capital. Fu Xue..."
I don’t know how many people still remember the Queen’s book of advice.
Looking at Huo Nian and Mu Jie, "You are very good. I will reward you in a while!"
Mu Jie's eyes widened and he rushed over, "Grandfather, what do you want to reward Jie'er?"
Emperor Yongkang was in a good mood, so he hugged him and lifted him up twice, "You are a monkey, now that you are well, you still want to enter the palace to search for my treasures."
Emperor Yongkang had few heirs, and the youngest Princess Chang Ning passed away early, leaving only Mu Jie. Although he was heartbroken, he loved his grandson very much and often called him into the palace.
Huo Xi looked at the two of them as if they were ordinary grandparents, and smiled.
When Emperor Yongkang saw it, he nodded secretly. This Huo Xi raised her brother very well. If the British Duke's family was handed over to Huo Nian, he would become the prince's arm in the future.
He gave Mu Jie and Huo Xi siblings heavy rewards before leaving.
When the siblings left the palace, they not only took with them the reward from the imperial concubine, but also the generous reward from Emperor Yongkang.
Returning to the mansion, everyone was envious.
