Xin Zhuo took it and looked through it casually. The painting was very delicate, not abstract, and the clothes and expressions were lifelike.
His memory has always been good, and he can remember most of it after reading it once.
The pyramid in the mansion is the grandmother, the old lady, and the relationship below is a bit complicated. There are four princess aunts and cousins-in-law of Shuangju, sixteen widowed aunts and cousins-in-law who were born in a noble family, twenty-one cousins, and one cousin.
I'm afraid there is also the great great uncle and another man. I don't know who they are, and I haven't introduced them.
A widow?
Frost residence?
what's the situation?
But these are not important at the moment. What is important is that his heartbeat is inexplicably accelerated and he is a little nervous.
That's right! After working as a bandit for many years, killing people everywhere, fighting with people in the world, and annihilating the three major forces, the newly promoted Crown Prince Jiang, who actually had a somewhat dark personality, became nervous when he saw a family member.
The female steward Li Yun also said that he was impatient and said softly: "Your Majesty, it is best to watch for a while. Everyone in the mansion is waiting, and I am afraid that they will have to see each other one by one later!"
"Got it!" Xin Zhuo nodded, suppressing the panic in his heart, and read it again.
She was still dazzled by the words "shuangju" and "widowedness" that she deliberately mentioned for fear of making a joke.
Why are there so many widows? This is a scary thing.
It even made the back of his neck feel a little cold!
We should have asked clearly from the beginning where the dozens of men in the family had gone, or why they were missing.
"Your Majesty?" Li Yun, the steward, took out a brocade robe at some point and asked, "Please put on a new robe."
The three maids next to them stood up full of nervousness and excitement: "I will help the prince change his clothes!"
"No! Just leave it like this!" Xin Zhuo glanced at the robe he was wearing. It was already a little dirty. "I'm not from a good background either. Being too formal would be a bit pretentious. Just be more comfortable."
The steward Li Yun and the three maids looked at each other, unable to understand the logic of the prince's words.
Just as Li Yun was about to speak, Chan Yi opened her eyes: "Your Majesty, you'd better put it on. There are too many people in the family, including many imperial concubines, subordinate officials, and dignitaries. There are so many people with mixed eyes, so we can't be looked down upon. Got it!"
Xin Zhuo was silent for a moment, stood up, and took off his clothes.
As a result, the steward Li Yun and the three maids were frightened. There were too many rules in the wealthy family. If the old lady knew that the prince dressed himself, he would be kicked out of the house. He quickly said: "Your Majesty, please let the servants change clothes." !”
Xin Zhuo had no choice but to give up and cursed secretly, Damn feudal society, if it continues like this, with his strong determination, it will only take half a month at most.
After a while, he had a new look, with brocade clothes and jade belt, a young man's bun, light powder on his face, red lips and white teeth. He was naturally handsome. This time, several maids looked at him with slightly red faces and couldn't stop staring at him.
"The prince has really followed all the good qualities of the late prince and the eldest princess. I am afraid that the old lady will be happy when she sees him!"
Manager Liyun smiled, and her eyes were inexplicably misted.
Xin Zhuo's mind was no longer on chatting with them, and his legs couldn't help but bounce: "Um... how long until it arrives?"
Chanyi chuckled: "It's already here!"
really!
Suddenly there was a roar of people outside, and the piercing firecrackers also exploded.
The carriage also stopped suddenly!
The bold Xin Zhuo panicked instantly: "Don't move yet, what is my name?"
"puff……"
Several maids covered their mouths and burst into laughter. Steward Liyun also wiped the corners of his eyes and smiled: "The prince's name is Jiang Yuqing, don't remember it wrong!"
As he spoke, he opened the carriage door curtain and got out of the carriage first with three maids.
With a smile on her lips, Chanyi cupped her fists and saluted: "My mission has been completed. Let's leave first. I will definitely remember the promise made by General Sheng and the Crown Prince!"
Xin Zhuo said in surprise: "What?"
"Your Majesty doesn't know martial arts!" Chanyi's figure flashed and disappeared.
"Goodbye now, let's talk for a while..."
Xin Zhuo raised his hand. I was a little nervous. What kind of persona should I use to meet people outside?
awesomeness? Low eyebrows and flattering eyes? Honest Bajiao? Looking angry? Arrogant? The breath of hanging silk? Or calm and dignified?
"Prince, please get out of the car!"
A soft voice came from outside, it was someone else, not Li Yun.
"Bang, bang..."
…
At this moment, thousands of people were standing outside the gate of the extremely impressive Jiang Mansion, including not only hundreds of powerful guards with martial arts levels, but also thousands of maids and servants.
Not far away, both ends of the street were also crowded with people watching the excitement.
On both sides of the gate, there are hundreds of dignitaries, senior officials, children of princes and nobles, ladies and ladies.
Today, the eldest grandson of the Jiang family recognizes his ancestor and returns to the clan, which is definitely a big event that will cause a stir in both the government and the public!
Even people from the palace came!
Two concubines, a noble concubine, two concubines and three eunuchs!
No one can resist such a posture!
Firecrackers were still going off in the distance and thick smoke filled the air.
In the middle of the crowd was the old lady, who was surrounded by dozens of ladies. Next to her stood the concubines, concubines, princesses, and a young man with low eyebrows and a brocade robe, his eyes swaying. , I don’t know what the idea was.
It turned out that not only Xin Zhuo was nervous, but also everyone present was nervous.
The most nervous one was the old lady. At this time, her body was shaking, her lips were trembling slightly, and she subconsciously adjusted her appearance: "Is this outfit okay for me?"
As the saying goes, "The younger son and the older grandson are the lifeblood of the old lady." This is true even for aristocratic families.
The old concubine of the late emperor who had a good relationship next to her chuckled and said: "The old concubine is in high spirits today. I'm afraid the prince will be afraid when he sees her!"
"How can I be afraid? I can't be afraid!" The old lady smiled with difficulty, "My grandson has been living outside for more than ten years and has suffered countless hardships. He is afraid of his grandmother as soon as he sees her. How will we get along with him in the future? No. !”
The old concubine chuckled: "I said the wrong thing."
The old lady said again: "Do you think my grandson is more like his father or his mother?"
A princess from Shuangju smiled and said, "Haven't you ever seen the portrait? He's in the car, and we'll see him soon!"
"That's right! That's right!"
The old lady took a step forward, then subconsciously glanced at the submissive boy beside her, and scolded: "Don't be like this careless rebellious grandson!"
Jiang Yugui lowered his eyebrows even more and rubbed his nose: "Grandma, you are... biased. As soon as my brother comes back, you will reprimand me!"
"I'm too lazy to argue with you!"
The old lady reprimanded her again, then looked into the carriage and asked doubtfully: "What's wrong with you... still not getting off?"
"Maybe I'm shy..."
As soon as a lady next to her finished speaking, she suddenly exclaimed: "It's coming down! It's coming down!"
Everyone around looked at it intently!
really! Prince Jiang came down.
Wearing a brocade robe and jade belt, he has a tall figure, a straight back, and long black hair reaching his waist. Neither humble nor arrogant, with a calm temperament, lips as if painted with vermilion, eyes as if dotted with paint, and face as if piled with flowers.
It makes people's eyes light up when they see it. Even the pickiest person can't find any faults.
What a handsome young man!
This simply exceeded the expectations of everyone present!
What does the prince's face look solemn mean?
"She looks more like the eldest princess than the former prince!"
A noble lady beside her said in a crazy voice, her eyes already red-rimmed.
In the distance, there was even an old man who had served the family for many years. He turned away and secretly shed tears.
The old lady's body trembled even more: "It's my grandson, it's my grandson..."
But at this moment, Xin Zhuo quickly walked a few steps, bowed to the old lady and saluted, and said in a loud voice: "My grandson Jiang Yuqing, I have met the old grandmother!"
I secretly thought that my character should be fine, right? I feel pretty good myself. Winning should not be a problem, right?
But she saw that the old lady was crazy for a moment, as if she had seen her son who had fought in the Western Regions more than ten years ago and returned in high spirits, but who had been dead for many years now. He also bowed to her: "Son Jiang Wen, pay my respects to my mother. !”
The two figures gradually met in front of their eyes.
Unable to control her tears anymore, she hugged Xin Zhuo and cried bitterly: "My grandson!"
