Chapter 280 Yang Datou enters the palace
The emperor was indeed comforted, and his face improved visibly, but he was still a little awkward, "I have been to Ping'an County, Quzhou Prefecture before, and met several children of Guang Enbo's family. They are all down-to-earth, filial, smart and cute, which is rare. What's more, there is no impetuousness in suddenly becoming rich.
Looking at Lao Liu again, I can’t figure it out no matter how much I think about it. I give him the best. The Bai family is an imperial merchant. He can be said to be the richest among all the brothers! This is not enough! I am really heartbroken! "
Old Prince Rui was stunned for a moment, blinked vigorously, and said: "It is said that children of poor people become masters early. The situation of the Yang family is different. What should I do if the child does not mature early? Besides, Uncle Guang En is indeed amazing. A woman with a very big heart. Even if everyone is as good as a man, it’s no surprise that the children she raises are outstanding!”
The emperor was deep in thought, and after a while he said quietly: "Uncle, do you think it is feasible for me to ask Guang Enbo to come into the palace from time to time to talk to the concubines about parenting methods?"
"Poof!" Prince Rui squirted all the tea in his mouth, and he was very shocked, "Your Majesty! Even if you are anxious, you can't mess around! Guang Enbo was not of high origin. Although he discovered that taro and white potato have benefited all people, but among those In the eyes of a noble girl, her status is still low. Do you want her to talk about parenting with the women in the harem to make her resentful? "
In other words, the emperor stopped thinking after being scolded by Mr. Rui.
Jiang Ning's heart was still beating wildly until he walked out of the palace gate and got into the carriage. As soon as the carriage walked out for a while, he met the carriage of Duke Dingguo parked on the roadside.
The coachman asked. Jiang Ning lifted the curtain and saw the servants of Duke Dingguo waiting beside him.
“Uncle, the old lady, please come over and have a talk.”
Jiang Ning nodded slightly and asked the driver to drive the carriage over.
At this time, Mrs. Shen also opened the curtain of the car, and the two people who were separated by a generation actually felt a kind of sympathy for each other after a disaster.
Mrs. Shen's attitude was very gentle, but also a bit warm and uneasy, "Uncle, I invited you here to ask if the emperor is still angry after I leave."
Jiang Ning looked as if he was expecting it, and nodded slightly to Mrs. Shen, "Don't worry, Mrs. Shen. The emperor is fine. He just left his ministers here to explain some things. Some things will be over as soon as they are over. There is no need to worry about it. "
Mrs. Shen's eyes changed when she looked at Jiang Ning. She nodded heavily and said with a smile: "This will make me feel at ease. I heard that even the emperor likes Baiweilou's wine. I will ask the Duke to buy a few jars later." Come back and try it.”
Jiang Ning covered her mouth and chuckled, "That's a coincidence. The emperor also wants wine. You and the emperor are indeed a family."
Old Mrs. Shen liked to hear these words, so she immediately smiled and narrowed her eyes, "Uncle, I have been able to come to Dingguo's mansion often. I welcome you."
“Thank you, old lady, I will definitely go when I have time!”
Jiang Ning waited for the carriage from Duke Dingguo's Mansion to leave before letting the driver rush back to Baiwei Tower.
At this time, Baiweilou was still discussing the farce on the street and the matter of the Bai family being ransacked.
Liu Ye saw her coming back and hurriedly helped her to the backyard, "Auntie, why was the Bai family raided? Isn't that an imperial merchant?"
She was present at the farce on the street today. She only thought that there was an **** scandal in the Bai family, but she never expected that something else would happen.
Although she was happy that the Bai family was defeated, it was shocking enough for a behemoth to fall like this.
Jiang Ning held on until Liuye closed the door and threw himself directly on the chair.
Liu Ye was startled and quickly helped the man up and poured hot water for Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning’s hand holding the tea cup was shaking.
Liu Ye’s heart was pounding when she saw it, and she quickly took the tea cup and fed it to her mouth.
After a while, Jiang Ning came to his senses, closed his eyes and ordered: "Go and call Datou over, I have something to explain."
Yang Datou is teaching a few servants how to cook in the back kitchen. He is sweating profusely in the winter, and there is a smell of sweat when he comes in.
Jiang Ning frowned subconsciously and straightened his body seriously, "The emperor asked you to enter the palace, saying that he wanted to discuss the New Year's Eve dinner. You will take a shower and change into clean clothes in a while. Many things happened in the palace today. The emperor personally chopped off the sixth prince's head. He was demoted to a commoner and imprisoned, the concubine De was deposed, the Bai family was confiscated, and the Dong family was also raided."
Yang Datou and his wife were stunned when they heard this, and they couldn't calm down for a long time.
Yang Datou's legs were trembling, "Auntie, can I wait until the emperor is in a better mood before entering the palace?"
Jiang Ning shook his head regretfully, "I don't want you to enter the palace to meet the saint at this time, but the emperor ordered your name. It is hard to disobey the emperor's order, son! Remember, be careful with your words and deeds, speak less and read less. , pretending to be confused, understand? Our family’s future depends entirely on you!”
Yang Datou didn't know how he walked out of the wing, and how he took a shower. When he came to his senses, he was already wearing a brand new satin dress and sitting in the carriage.
The clothes were very nice, Ye Ye washed him very clean, and the carriage was very comfortable. Everything was fine, but he always felt like something was wrong.
When the carriage arrived at the palace gate, he looked at the towering tower and was dumbfounded, not knowing what to do next.
It was the Guards who took the lead in questioning him before he stammered and left the house.
He still felt like he was dreaming until the guards led him into the palace.
In a daze, he just knelt in front of the emperor.
The emperor was originally in a very depressed mood, but as soon as the naive Yang Datou came in, he immediately became happy and asked Dekang to show him his seat.
Yang Datou didn’t understand these rules either. The emperor asked him to sit down and he sat down firmly.
Dekang was a little anxious.
The emperor couldn't help but laugh.
Yang Datou's clear eyes were full of confusion and confusion, and he was also a little cautious and at a loss.
The emperor was in an inexplicably good mood and said, "Yang Datou, Uncle Guang En told you why I wanted you to enter the palace?"
Yang Datou nodded crazily, "Your Majesty, my mother-in-law has already told the common people that you let the common people enter the palace for the purpose of cooking for the palace banquet on New Year's Eve."
The emperor nodded slightly and stood up, "Let's go! I'll take you to the imperial dining room."
“Your Majesty?” Dekang was confused and didn’t know why.
Yang Datou stood up obediently and followed closely behind the emperor.
The group of people arrived suddenly, catching the imperial chef in the imperial dining room off guard. What surprised the emperor even more was that he actually saw Princess Yongyang and the eighth prince Xiao Chongjun here.
“Yongyang? Lao Ba? What are you doing?”
Princess Yongyang and the Eighth Prince were startled, with flour still hanging on their bodies. They shook their heads and backed away like children who had done something wrong.
“My sons and ministers pay homage to their father.”
The emperor frowned and stepped forward, "I ask what you are doing?"
The two looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
The imperial chef replied bravely: "Your Majesty, Princess Yongyang and the Eighth Prince heard that the Emperor was unhappy, so they came to the imperial kitchen to ask Wei Chen to learn how to cook the Emperor's favorite dishes."
"What's not good to say?" The emperor's frown relaxed and his mood became much better.
