Chapter 264 This is my son
It didn't matter that Jiang Ning didn't know the old beggar's identity. Now that he knew it, he definitely couldn't let him go like this. He immediately ordered the shopkeeper Xu: "Hurry up and have someone boil hot water for the old prince to wash up, and prepare a pair of clean clothes. Prepare good wine and good food to entertain.”
Shopkeeper Xu hurried to the back kitchen to report to Yang Datou.
Yang Datou rushed out with a spatula, frightened by the battle in the backyard, "Mom, what do you want to eat?"
Upon hearing this, the old prince suddenly raised his head and ordered the dishes with great interest, "I want boiled fish, spicy crab, spicy chicken, crispy taro slices, fried pork floss buns, honey cake, and milk tea."
Jiang Ning smiled and glanced at Yang Datou, "Hurry up and get ready!"
“I understand!” Yang Datou rushed back to the kitchen.
Princess Yongyang looked as angry as a frog, "You also said you are not my uncle!"
The old prince smiled awkwardly, got timid, and pulled the beggar next to him, "Let's go! I will give you a long experience."
“Who is he?” Princess Yongyang finally noticed the other beggar.
The old prince bared his teeth and said with a smile: "My son!"
“Huh?” Princess Yongyang was stunned and subconsciously covered her mouth with her hands.
Jiang Ning also had a look of confusion on his face. The father and son did not care about the good prince and son, and actually went to grab a job from a beggar. What's wrong with them?
“No! No! Uncle, where did you get your son?” Princess Yongyang’s sharp cry almost pierced Jiang Ning’s eardrums.
Jiang Ning quickly asked the shopkeeper to send the old prince and his son to wash up, and he walked towards the lobby with Princess Yongyang in his arms. "Princess, don't be anxious. If you have any questions, I'll ask them after the old prince has washed up."
Princess Yongyang anxiously twisted her handkerchief and was sent to the second floor by Jiang Ning.
Wing Xiaoyao was ecstatically tasting wine in his private room. Xiao Chongyun was sitting beside him with an upright posture. The father and son formed a sharp contrast.
The door to the private room was pushed open with a bang.
Father and son both looked over.
King Xiaoyao glanced at the angry Princess Yongyang and asked casually: "Who made our little princess unhappy?"
“Uncle!” Princess Yongyang said depressedly.
“Pfft!” King Xiaoyao spurted out all the wine in his mouth, his eyes widened in disbelief, “Who are you talking about?”
“Wow” Princess Yongyang burst into tears with anger.
Wang Xiaoyao and Xiao Chongyun were both a little panicked, and hurried over to get people into the house one by one.
"What's going on? Why are you crying just because you're crying?" King Xiaoyao looked at Jiang Ning suspiciously. Seeing her looking like she was speechless, his heart sank inexplicably, "He can't really be the emperor's uncle, can he?"
Jiang Ning nodded silently, and King Xiaoyao rushed out, "Where is the person? Where is the person?"
The private room on the second floor was buzzing with excitement again.
After King Xiaoyao learned about the situation, his reaction was similar to that of Princess Yongyang. A group of people gathered around the round table. You looked at me and I looked at you, speechless.
King Xiaoyao was the first to break the silence, "Does my uncle really have a son?"
Princess Yongyang glared angrily, "Uncle! How come you are fooling around with your uncle? How long has your uncle been away? That man looks about the same age as you, how could he be his uncle's son?"
“That’s true!” King Xiaoyao thought thoughtfully. Jiang Ning asked weakly: "Could it be the bloodline of the old prince who accidentally strayed outside?"
“Impossible!” the three of them said in unison.
Jiang Ning hurriedly agreed, "Yes, yes, it's impossible for the old prince to do such a thing. It was my fault!"
Princess Yongyang was a little discouraged, "It's not what Guang Enbo thought!"
King Xiaoyao then said: "My uncle, my uncle, has been obsessed with cultivating immortality and elixir since he was young. The emperor's grandfather was very angry, but the emperor's uncle went his own way. Every time the father and son met, they were very unhappy. However, the emperor's uncle never did anything treasonous. The thing is, I just like to practice immortality and refine elixirs.
The emperor's grandfather really couldn't punish him severely. Later, when he got married, the emperor's uncle didn't understand at all. The emperor's grandfather became anxious and thought that maybe finding a princess for the emperor's uncle would change his mind.
For this reason, a beautiful woman was chosen for him. Unexpectedly, the emperor's uncle was a gentleman and could sit comfortably in the presence of a beautiful woman. On the wedding night, the princess was left alone in the empty room.
This matter came to the ears of the emperor's grandfather. The emperor's grandfather and the emperor's grandmother severely reprimanded the emperor's uncle, and even threatened to demote him. As a result, the emperor's uncle went to become a monk directly.
He didn’t take anything and ran away alone. You think this is the case, what else can the imperial grandfather do? "
“Then what?” Jiang Ning became excited after hearing this, wishing that King Xiaoyao had said everything without taking a breath.
King Xiaoyao was a little depressed, "The emperor's grandfather couldn't do anything to him, and he felt sorry for his daughter-in-law. However, if his son ran away, he couldn't let his daughter-in-law remarry.
So the emperor's grandfather was furious and threatened to sever ties with the emperor's uncle. Later, the emperor's aunt became seriously ill. The emperor's uncle suddenly came back to see her and talked to the emperor's aunt for a day. When the emperor's aunt left, she was very peaceful. The emperor's grandfather said to the emperor The uncle's anger has subsided a little.
The emperor's uncle never went out after he came back that time. He just kept himself locked in the palace and concentrated on practicing Taoism. He didn't leave the palace until the death of the emperor's grandfather.
His father was in poor health. He was afraid of instability in the government after he ascended the throne, so he forced his uncle to stay in the capital. Perhaps because he was older, his uncle was not as stubborn as he was when he was young, but he was also considerate of other people's difficulties.
He continued to assist his father until his death. A few years after his brother ascended the throne, the emperor's uncle said that the burden on his shoulders could be relieved, so he ran away.
Calculating the time, he has been away from Beijing for seven or eight years. I thought he had attained enlightenment and became an immortal, but he turned out to be a beggar! I don’t know if a beggar gang was established and a gang leader was appointed. "
"Pfft!" Jiang Ning couldn't hold it back and laughed out loud.
Princess Yongyang was furious, "Uncle! My uncle is so pitiful, and you still make fun of him! Do you have any conscience?"
King Xiaoyao had a headache, "Come on, I won't say anything! The old man will come over later and you can ask him what happened to his cheap son. The blood of the royal family cannot be confused."
While talking, a group of guards came in surrounded by the freshly washed Prince Rui and a middle-aged man.
Jiang Ning was about to stand up and salute when he saw the middle-aged man and was immediately stunned, "How can they be so similar?"
“You know him?” King Xiaoyao was shocked.
Princess Yongyang was originally quite hostile to this person. Seeing Jiang Ning's reaction, she realized that there might be something wrong with this person and immediately restrained her emotions.
Mr. Rui laughed and pulled the other person to sit down. "There are thousands of similar people in the world. It's not surprising that Uncle Guang En has seen people who look like my son."
Jiang Ning saw that the other party didn't respond, so he came back to his senses and hurriedly saluted.
Mr. Rui waved his hand and said, "I am a person who values Taoism and nature. I do whatever I want. I don't have so many rules. We are all members of our own family. There is no need to come here. Come on, where is my food? I'm starving!"
Shopkeeper Xu quickly went out to organize things.
After Jiang Ning sat down, his eyes always glanced at Old Prince Rui's son with a vague look.
