Chapter 1256 Scolding His Son
The prince entered the palace.
Seeing the emperor's uncle whom he hadn't seen for a long time sitting there with a wine glass, looking calm and with an air of being in control of everything, made him feel at ease.
The emperor's uncle is back.
As long as the emperor's uncle comes back, Zhou Ze will feel that he is not fighting alone.
Zhou Ling has the protection and help of his mother, as well as the partiality and indulgence of his father.
But he has an uncle.
"Ze, greetings to the Emperor, father and uncle." The prince still greeted respectfully.
"Well."
Zhou Shiyue glanced at him casually and suddenly said something.
"Zhou Ze, you are already an adult, this is not okay."
"what?"
Not to mention the prince, even the emperor was a little confused.
how?
"Please give me your instructions, uncle." Zhou Ze bowed again.
"You know that your father and Zhou Ling have a deep affection for each other and they hid away to drink without you. Are you jealous?"
Zhou Shiyue leaned back in his chair, lazily, and glanced at the prince.
"You're so old, why are you jealous of your brother? Your father has been partial to you for a long time, what are you fighting for? Do you think he will invite you to have a couple of drinks if you come now?"
Without waiting for the emperor and the prince to speak, he raised his glass again, curled the corners of his lips slightly, and said a little arrogantly, "Except for Zhou Ling, your father will have to be partial to me. You, you don't have a place."
"Uncle..." The prince was a little stunned, then he pursed his lips, looked at the emperor, his eyelids drooped slightly, the corners of his lips turned down, and he lowered his head slightly.
He looked like he had suffered a lot of setbacks and injustices, and was unable to face it.
The whole person seemed to be shrouded in darkness.
He was silent for a moment, then bowed and was about to leave.
"Yes, Aze, I am sorry to bother you. Father and uncle, Aze will take his leave..."
Eunuch Tan next to him said: Where did this poor little thing come from? Who would believe that this is the prince? Which prince is so miserable?
Even the emperor felt a little guilty and couldn't bear it.
Although this is true, the fact that Prince Jin pointed it out so blatantly made it seem as if he was very bad to the Crown Prince.
It would be really bad if this got out.
Moreover, how could such a thing be said in public? He is the crown prince after all.
"Ahem," the emperor cleared his throat, and although it was a little difficult, he still said, "Your uncle was joking with you. Ah Ze, sit down and have a couple of drinks. It's a good opportunity to listen to your uncle talk about Subei. It's been a while since we two have had a drink together."
"Then, is it okay?" The prince looked up, a little bit unbelieving.
This... "Why not! Xiao Tanzi, get a cup, a pair of chopsticks, and ask the imperial kitchen to add two more side dishes."
"I obey your command." Eunuch Tan quickly welcomed the prince to the table.
The prince's eyes lit up, and he said to the emperor with great joy, "Thank you, father."
"Tsk." Zhou Shiyue sneered, raised his glass and drank the wine in one gulp.
When he looked up, his eyes glanced at the prince.
The news reached the second prince, who was extremely angry.
"I was drinking there peacefully, but when the uncle arrived, my mother and I had to scurry away like stray dogs. But when Zhou Ze left, we could stay there and drink with him openly?!"
The attendant next to him quickly advised, "Your Highness, be careful that the walls may have ears."
"What the hell! Did I say something wrong?"
"Everyone says that my father is partial to me. Is this partiality? I think he is partial to me, but in fact he is really good to Zhou Ze!"
The attendant dared not say a word.
After all, he is the prince.
Moreover, if the emperor heard what I said, he would probably be unhappy.
The second prince kicked over a vase that had fallen to the ground, and it shattered to the ground with a bang.
But his feet also hurt a lot.
When the palace began to become noisy again, two tables were set up in Huaiyuan.
The dish is very rich.
Rong Jingjing usually has the habit of collecting various ingredients. She turns anything that can be made into dried goods into dried goods so that they can be preserved.
Whatever could be grown was planted in the yard.
There are also some braised dishes, bacon, smoked sauces, and everything else.
Therefore, there is a wide variety of food in Huaiyuan, and there is no shortage of it.
Aunt Liu also has some secret recipes of her own, and the two of them together can really make hundreds of dishes.
Of course, it is not so exaggerated now. It is abundant but not wasteful.
After Jiang Yongmiao came to Huaiyuan, she also cooked several southwestern dishes.
"Don't mention it. After a trip to the southwest and now back in Beijing, I still miss these dishes a little bit," said Lu Zhaoling.
Seeing Jiang Yongmiao today, she was also very happy to see that she was able to recover from the pain of the blow so quickly.
Jiang Yongmiao held up the wine glass, "Ms. Lu, I toast you. I really thank you. If it weren't for you, I..."
"I'll drink it." Lu Zhaoling drank the glass of wine. "There are still many beautiful sights in life that are worth seeing, and there are many delicious foods waiting for you to taste. Live well."
"I will." Jiang Yongmiao's eyes were hot and he drank the wine in one gulp.
The young people also sat at another table.
Qingmu introduced the new Sanqing to Uncle Liu and Aunt Liu.
The green elms, green pines and green cypresses never thought that they could sit down and drink together, and relax for a rare moment.
The food in Huaiyuan was so delicious that they almost swallowed their tongues.
The food at Prince Jin's Mansion was also delicious, but compared to what Miss Rong and Aunt Liu cooked, it was somewhat too refined and lacked flavor, and was a little bland in comparison.
Lao Ma and his son Ma Xiaoliu are also very happy today.
Now that the young lady is back, they feel that they can do more work. Otherwise, if they live in Huaiyuan, they would only occasionally let the young lady go out to buy things in the carriage, or to run errands. They always feel that they are not worthy of such a good life and treatment.
The atmosphere was good and everyone drank a little too much.
But it had been a long time since it was so lively, so Rong Jingjing didn't stop them.
But she had to keep an eye on the senior sister.
When Lu Zhaoling was about to raise her glass again, Rong Jingjing picked up a meatball and put it to her mouth, and snatched her glass away.
"Okay, Senior Sister, you can't drink anymore."
No matter how much Lu Zhaoling drank, her face was only slightly flushed and she didn't look drunk.
But once she gets really drunk, there’s no telling what kind of trouble she’ll cause.
They were drinking fruit wine brewed by Rong Jingjing. It was sweet but still strong. Rong Jingjing didn't know whether Lu Zhaoling's alcohol tolerance had changed after coming to Da Zhou, so she still had to be careful.
"This sweet stuff, can it be considered wine? It's juice." Lu Zhaoling snorted.
He didn't let her drink to her heart's content and kept controlling her.
She took a big bite of the meatball; it was juicy, fragrant, and chewy.
The meatballs made by Second Junior Sister are getting more and more delicious.
"Big Sister, didn't you say that Master and Uncle Master are here too? Are they not coming tonight?"
Rong Jingjing was also looking forward to meeting her master and uncle. She was shocked when she heard what Lu Zhaoling whispered to her just now.
But at the same time, I am also very happy.
That’s great. Now that the master has come, she will feel that their sect is still there, and that she and her senior brothers and sisters are also children of elders.
Who understands this feeling?
