Chapter 388 Congratulations to His Highness on Returning to the Eastern Palace
The Longxiong Guards who came to pick up the real prince were accompanied by ceremonial guards, so they could not go fast. However, this kind of thing needed to be done beautifully and thoroughly. It was impossible for them to just show up without any prior notice. Someone had already galloped over with the snake from the Jade Appraisal Department to appraise the relationship, and also informed this side.
In addition, a small team of Longxiong Guards will be assigned separately to pick up Tang Erhe.
After all, Emperor Mingpei hates them, and he will definitely deal with him and the prince together. He will not let him die so easily.
Xinbao is very interested in the mysterious ancient version of paternity testing, but unfortunately she can't go in to take a look... But it is said that she will have to take another test when she returns to the palace, so she will have a chance to see it then.
But anyway, they were waiting outside, and after a brief rustling, the people inside said in unison: "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! Congratulations on returning to the East Palace!"
With this, the matter is settled.
Xiao Tai refused to go with them because he had a political show to perform.
He was about to leave now, and return to the capital as fast as he could, and then go to the palace and cry and plead guilty, saying, "Your Majesty, I know, but I dare not say it! I can only stay to protect the crown prince... I haven't slept well these days... or something like that."
In this way, his failure to obey the imperial edict was turned into an act of utter loyalty.
You know what, it makes sense. After all, people like the elder who are hesitant are the mainstream, while people like Xiao Tai are the outliers.
As for them, they waited for the ceremonial procession to arrive, and as soon as the imperial carriage was waved, they put on their full attire... The county magistrate and his men bowed three times and kowtowed nine times, then got into the car and left. Because they were going to see the emperor and his father, the more "urgent" it was, the better, and they had to make arrangements in advance. It's not that they couldn't bring luggage, but they certainly wouldn't carry large boxes or baskets at that time.
After hearing Liang Ruoxu's explanation, everyone felt sick.
At this moment, everyone felt the reality, except for the poor one who had been kept secret from being a child and found out that they were actually twins.
Under the guidance of their elder brother, they have simulated "20 to 30 things" in their minds, and they feel that they are fearless no matter the situation is good or bad. But even in their dreams, they never dared to think that their grandfather is the emperor! !
Your Majesty!!! Who dares to have such a dream! Madam Lin was also a little dazed, and the fourth brother was also a little distracted. The only ones who could still keep calm were Tang Qingshan and the second brother.
Xinbao's focus was completely different from everyone else's. She murmured, "What about Uncle Shen? What about Uncle Zhongli? Aren't they going with us? Will Grandpa and the others go with us?"
"Yes, yes," Madam Lin also said, "Should we bring Chang'er back home as soon as possible? This house was finally built, and Chang'er hasn't lived in it for a few days. I carefully selected all the furniture... and Fan'er, where is Fan'er? Can we tell my father now? I, how should I tell him?"
She was running around like a headless fly.
"Don't worry," Tang Qingshan held her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, someone will pick up Fan'er and she will meet us in Beijing. You calm down first and don't panic. We will go to the Lin family together later."
He paused for a moment, then said to Xinbao, "If Xinbao wants to go, you can go and tell Uncle Shen. There's no need to rush to pick up your brother. We can go there tomorrow."
Xinbao stood up in a panic and went over with Yan Shenjue.
As soon as he saw Master Shen, Tuanzi immediately rushed over to hug him and asked loudly: "Uncle, are you still with Xinbao?"
Master Shen smiled so hard that his eyes were bent. "Oh, of course uncle is good with Xinbao? What's wrong? Who said anything to Xinbao?"
Zhong Limin had fully recovered and had already moved back to Liujin Garden. Hearing this, she couldn't help but laugh: "With this tone, someone who didn't know would think..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard Tuanzi say, "Xinbao is going back to the capital. Will uncle go with Xinbao?"
Zhong Limin's face changed slightly. She glanced over and saw Yu Ru behind her, looking at Tuanzi with an auntie smile on her face.
Xinbao explained a few words in a long voice.
Mr. Shen was actually mentally prepared, but when he heard it suddenly, he still felt a little complicated.
Tuanzi begged softly: "Uncle, please go with Xinbao, please go with Xinbao. You still have to teach Third Brother when you go, otherwise Xinbao will definitely miss you..."
She liked Ye Ye very much, and she thought it was very good to be with Huang Ye Ye, but she couldn't bear to leave any of the people here... She used both soft and hard tactics and groaned, and finally Master Shen agreed to go to the capital to see her after the New Year.
Tuanzi jumped down with satisfaction, with his hands behind his back: "Uncle Zhongli?"
She said earnestly: "You are the deputy gang leader, you have to listen to the gang leader!"
Zhong Limin glanced at Yu Ru again.
Miss Yuru looked at him blankly. Zhong Limin smiled, squatted down and said to Tuanzi, "Don't worry, Xinbao, I will definitely listen to the leader."
Xinbao was so happy that his little white teeth showed when he smiled. He waved his little hand and said, "Let's go find our third brother!"
Over there, Tang Qingshan took Mrs. Lin to the Lin family.
The second elder brother came early and told them what happened first. He left after his parents came.
Grandpa Lin was panicking inside, but he forced himself to remain calm. He was also a father, and he knew his daughter's temper, and he was worried.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
He said in a calm voice: "Qingshan, I still call you Qingshan, please don't think it's rude. We Mulan are just children of the rivers and lakes..."
Tang Qingshan said: "Father-in-law."
Grandpa Lin raised his hand to stop him, very stylishly.
He held on for a breath and continued, "I still say the same thing. You are a good person. For so many years, the Lin family owes you... In the future, if anything happens, just tell me and I'll go pick her up. She is my daughter no matter how old she is. I will support her as long as I live. Don't... don't treat her coldly. As a father, I feel bad."
Mrs. Lin couldn't hold back her tears at that moment and threw herself into his arms, crying loudly.
Tang Qingshan said in a deep voice: "Father-in-law, I am afraid that you will be worried, so I came here in advance to tell you... Mulan and I have been married for many years, and we have a deep love. No matter what happens in the future, our family will be together. In this life, until I grow old and die, there will only be Mulan, and there will be no mess! Don't worry!"
Grandpa Lin's strength suddenly faded and he nodded with tears in his eyes.
It was impossible to bring relatives with him at this time, so the ones who left were Tang Qingshan's family, Brother Yuan, and Bai Gusheng.
Yan Shenjue picked out twenty men from his shadow guards and left them for Grandpa Lin to protect him overtly and covertly. Brother Yuan also gave him the housekeeper Uncle Dong.
Uncle Dong was actually someone the Yuan family brought from the capital, but he was old and didn't want to travel back and forth anymore, so Brother Yuan canceled his slavery and allowed him to stay here to retire. If there was anything that Grandpa Lin didn't understand, he could help with it.
Tang Qingshan was indeed patient and visited the Shen family first according to the procedures. He then took his second brother, who was now a scholar, to meet the teacher who taught the fifth and sixth graders, gave him a gift of thanks, and handed over the progress.
In addition, the oil mill, farm, and fruit trees are all arranged, and the herbs in the greenhouse also need to be taken care of. There are really a lot of things to do...
As for the others, no one knew what they were busy with. They were just very busy, packing and unpacking their bags, unpacking and packing again, just busying themselves around.
Tuanzi was reluctant to give away anything and wanted to take everything, but in the end she was the one who took the least. Probably because she had no say. Yan Shenjue would always say “I’ve worn it before, I don’t want it anymore!” “It’s too small, I don’t want it anymore!” “It doesn’t look good, I don’t want it anymore!” for everything. He was very wasteful.
More than ten days later, the welcoming procession finally arrived in Longmen County.
The person who came here was their acquaintance, Wei Fengting, deputy commander of Longxiong Guard.
