Chapter 841 Past Events 2
This actually made the Queen Mother laugh: "Our Dabao is really smart."
"Grandfather, you are even smarter." Dabao was praised and immediately ran to get a handful of meat skewers for the Queen Mother. "They smell so good, Grandfather, please eat them quickly."
"Good! Good, good!" The Queen Mother laughed heartily. She took the skewers from Dabao and took a bite. "Hmm, this tastes really good. Jiu'er's cooking is excellent, and with Dabao serving it, it tastes even better."
"After the ancestor finishes eating, Dabao will be returned to you!"
"Okay, okay."
Wen Jiu also laughed when he heard this: "Queen Mother, don't you taste the difference?"
The Queen Mother looked at the skewers in her hand after hearing this and said, "Is this a new way of making it? The taste seems strangely familiar to me."
"Your Majesty, what we're roasting today are the rabbits and pheasants we hunted in the woods up ahead. Even these beef skewers are made from dried beef that Bu Yan and his friends traded for game from hunters they encountered in the woods. So, these are all foods from your homeland."
The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, then took another bite, her eyes slightly red.
She lowered her head and took another serious look, then smiled and said, "Yes, no wonder it feels so familiar, it's the taste of my hometown."
"Hometown?" Dabao tilted his head and looked over: "What is hometown?"
The Queen Mother touched Dabao’s head lovingly and said, “My hometown is where I grew up.
The forest your mother just mentioned is one I used to go into often.
When I was young, I secretly rode a big horse, carrying a bow and arrow, and ran in, intending to hunt wolves. Later, I was discovered and was severely beaten by my father.
"Will the ancestor also be beaten by my father?" Dabao's eyes sparkled when he heard this.
"It turns out that our ancestor's father also beat people like our father." Erbao stared with his big black eyes in shock.
Sanbao and Sibao also looked at the Queen Mother in disbelief. The other children also immediately gathered around her.
"Of course, my ancestor's father was also very strict when he was young, but he had Mafa to protect him. He could never get over Mafa, and he might even scold him."
"Our father can't beat the emperor! He's always scolded by the emperor!" Sibao said happily.
Fourth Master: “…”
The skewers in my hand suddenly lost their fragrance.
He couldn't figure it out. Wasn't it just him and Jiuer's world just for the two of them?
How come the style of painting changed so suddenly and became like this?
"Grandfather, are there really jackals in this forest?" Erbao looked at the forest in the distance with great curiosity.
Sibao moved closer: "Yeah, did the ancestor hunt it later?"
While gnawing on a chicken leg, Sanbao asked, "Grandfather, is jackal delicious?"
The Queen Mother only laughed: "When our ancestor was young, he didn't have much ability, but he was very brave, and he was able to hunt jackals. However, he ended up poking the jackals' den. That time, he was actually surrounded by more than a dozen jackals, and even the horses were frightened."
"What happened next? What happened next?" Dabao clenched his little hands tightly.
"Later, my father happened to discover that I had escaped and chased after me with his guards, which was how he managed to save my life."
"Ancestor, that was close. Don't go to such a dangerous place again." Dabao said.
"Has the ancestor been punished?" Sibao asked with sparkling eyes.
The Queen Mother blinked and suddenly smiled. "Of course I didn't go afterwards. It wasn't because it was dangerous, but because I was beaten so badly that I couldn't get out of bed for two months. My father beat me, and he was punished too. But it was my Mafa who showed off the wolf skins I hunted to the nearby princes. He said they were hunted by his ten-year-old granddaughter. I've become quite famous as a hunter."
The Queen Mother spoke slowly, her face full of smiles.
"It turns out that our ancestor was also naughty when he was young." Erbao said with a smile.
The Queen Mother also laughed: "They all say that our ancestor is the overlord of this generation. Wherever he goes, no grass grows."
As soon as these words were spoken, even Wen Jiu couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
Nanny Fang beside her also laughed: "How could you, Queen Mother, belittle yourself like this? You were so beautiful back then, and wherever you went, you were so beautiful that the moon and flowers would be ashamed of themselves."
Dabao clapped his hands as he listened: "She is so beautiful that the moon and flowers will be ashamed of themselves! She is so beautiful!"
"You all have mouths full of honey." The Queen Mother suddenly stood up and said, "I was a good fisherman back then. I'll catch some fish for you to grill!"
"No!" The Fourth Master frowned and stood up: "Madam, if you want to eat it, your grandson will ask someone to catch it right away!"
Nanny Fang immediately said, "Yes, Queen Mother. You are a daughter of gold..."
"Shut up, I must go, no one can stop me." The Queen Mother said, looking at the people around her: "Would you like to come and see?"
“Yes, yes, yes!”
Several people said in unison, and the group went to the lake in a heroic manner.
The Fourth Master was about to say something, but Wen Jiu stopped him at the right moment and said, "The Queen Mother is finally in a good mood, so please don't spoil her fun."
After saying that, he looked at Bu Yanbu Yu and said, "Go and keep an eye on them. The most important thing is to protect their safety. Other things are fine."
"Yes." The two agreed without saying a word, and immediately went to the lake with their guards.
The Fourth Master was still staring with a frown, obviously not yet reassured.
"Hey? Didn't the Empress Dowager just say that she was going fishing?" The Ninth and Tenth Masters came over at this moment, followed by Zhan Dagumi.
Wen Jiu immediately said, "Well, we're going fishing. You should go and help."
Jiu Ye immediately rolled up his sleeves and ran over there: "Madam! Don't go in the water! Let my grandson come."
The Tenth Master ran to Wen Jiu happily, grabbed a handful of skewers, laughed with the two of them, and called Zhan Da Gu Mi to go to the lake together.
Wen Jiu looked puzzled: "How come these people are still playing together?"
The Fourth Master took a look and said, "That's not surprising."
The Ninth Master went over and saw that the Queen Mother did not go into the water by herself. The Fourth Master felt a little relieved.
"Old Nine, how can you be so stupid that you can't even catch this."
Suddenly, he heard a voice from the other end. Wenjiu looked over and saw the empress dowager rolling up her sleeves and standing on the shore with her hands on her hips in anxiety.
Wen Jiu couldn't help laughing at that moment: "The Queen Mother seems to have become a different person since she returned to Korchin. She is full of energy."
"Yes." The Fourth Master nodded. "The Khorchin tribe has always been one of the strongest in the Mongol royal palace. Speaking of which, the surrounding market is very lively. I'll take you to play nearby for a few days."
"That would be great."
After hearing what the empress dowager said, Wenjiu couldn't help but feel a little curious about Korchin.
This Khorchin had produced several empresses and was also the hometown of legendary women like the Empress Dowager and Su Malagu. She really wanted to go and see it.
…
"Don't worry, Queen Mother. We probably won't be able to reach Korchin until tonight." Wen Jiu looked at the Queen Mother who was already dressed neatly and sitting upright, and said with a smile.
"I'm not anxious, not anxious." The Queen Mother peeked out the window and said, "My eyelids have been twitching all day. I don't know what's wrong."
Shaking her head, the Queen Mother continued, "Jiu'er, please hold on to the wine jug in your hand. I have a serious use for it."
"Yes. Don't worry, Queen Mother. Even if the wine is lost, this wine pot will not be lost."
"You," the Queen Mother laughed at her amusement, touched the wine jug twice, and then frowned: "Why is the car so slow today?"
"Is there?" Wen Jiu was inexplicably brought along by the Queen Mother, and he felt a little nervous.
"Why did it stop?" The Queen Mother suddenly frowned.
Wenjiu also noticed it now: "Liusu, go and take a look."
Soon, Liusu opened the curtain and came in. You can greet me now.
The Queen Mother asked anxiously, "Tell me quickly, what's going on outside?"
"Replying to the Queen Mother, this..."
The Queen Mother: "Tell me, are you trying to drive me crazy?"
Liusu: "Reporting to the Empress Dowager... Lord Soetu seems to have angered the Emperor for some reason. His Majesty is furious and is currently sentencing Lord Soetu. I just glanced over and saw officials kneeling on the ground near His Majesty's carriage."
