The prince was stunned and asked: "Why doesn't he recognize Ma because he has nothing to do with Sinong Qing?"
Obviously he doesn't understand her brain circuit either.
Man Bao said confidently: "If he is good with Sinong Qing, how can he not know Ma?"
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang nodded in agreement.
Prince:......
Mingda, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but pull Manbao's hand and whispered: "Stop talking, you really made my third brother so angry, my father will definitely punish you."
Prince Gong was already very angry, but Eunuch Wu pulled several chamberlains and maids to support him and comfort him, and he wanted to help him go down to rest first.
The prince looked at Prince Gong's face, and his mood improved again. He nodded to Zhou Man for the first time, and said something that made Prince Gong even more angry, "I know."
Prince Gong could no longer maintain his grace and couldn't help but glare at the prince.
The prince didn't mind at all. He had long wanted to have an honest quarrel or fight with his younger brother, but he always acted like a coward, making him jump in anger while he pretended to be polite and virtuous.
Every time, he was scolded by his father and ministers.
It was only after his defeat last year that he showed some true temperament and stopped being hypocritical towards him.
At this moment, he was even more easily offended, so the prince simply turned to face him, rolled up his sleeves and asked, "Third brother, want to have a fight?"
Changyu was so frightened that he went to see Mingda anxiously.
Mingda just frowned and didn't stop him. He just said: "Brother, third brother is not good at martial arts."
"Don't worry, I won't break him."
But Bai Shan couldn't let them fight here. When they got out of here, they could fight on official roads or in the palace. Anyway, they couldn't fight in Pucun or in front of them, so he gave them a lot of money.
Bao winked and immediately went to stop the angry Prince Gong, while Man Bao stopped the prince and said, "Your Highness, are you hungry? How about we eat first, or I can take a look at your body. You are too tired."
It can also be treated with acupuncture or something."
Bai Shanze, Eunuch Wu and others took Prince Gong aside and said very attentively: "Your Highness, you are tired after traveling for half a day. Why don't you go to the humble house and sit down for a cup of tea. I will let you serve me."
Please change your clothes and shoes."
When the prince saw that Prince Gong was really gone, he looked at Bai Shan and Eunuch Wu with regret and put down his sleeves.
Manbao breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and Changyu also breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and pulled Mingda.
Mingda said: "Brother, if you and third brother don't want to stay here, go back to the palace first. My sister and I will play here for a while and then leave."
The prince thought for a while and then said: "Since you are here, let's have lunch before leaving."
Man Bao: ...She just said it casually, why did he take it seriously?
The prince has already walked on the road that Prince Gong walked just now to their village.
Man Bao quickly followed and asked hesitantly: "Your Highness, what do you want to eat?"
"Come on with whatever you want. Isn't your sister-in-law good at steamed pork with rice noodles? The meatloaf you ate at the palace gate last time was also good."
Man Bao breathed a sigh of relief. These two things were what Chang Yu had been thinking about, so Man Bao had already told his sister-in-law that there was nothing else, but these two things were definitely there.
She led the prince to her village.
This was the first time for Lao Zhoutou and the others to see the prince. They were so nervous that they didn't know where to put their hands. They were afraid of being rude, so they hid after seeing them at the door. However, the prince stopped them and took them to the main room.
There were only refreshments on the table in the main room, so Man Bao said, "I'm going to ask my sister-in-law if the food is ready."
Zhou Lixue said cleverly: "I'll go, sister-in-law, please rest."
After saying that, he turned around and ran away without saluting the prince and others.
Mr. Zhuang apologized to the prince, Prince Gong and others: "My child is rude, your highness forgives me."
The prince waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Guests are welcome to do as they please. Everyone can be casual, there is no need to be too polite."
The prince looked at Lao Zhoutou, who was standing aside with his neck curled up. He could not tell that Zhou Man was brought up by him.
You know, Zhou Man is very courageous.
The prince, who originally had a lot to say, suddenly had nothing to ask. He just asked politely, "Is your father-in-law Zhou Man's uncle?"
Lao Zhoutou didn't realize that he was asking this question, so he lowered his head and looked at his toes. Qian couldn't help but pinch him, and Man Bao quickly smoothed things over for her father, "Your Highness, this is me...I
"Uncle, I have always called you daddy, and I haven't changed it yet, so my dad is not used to it."
Only then did Lao Zhoutou react, nodding his head and saying, "Yes, I... the younger one is Man Bao's uncle."
The prince smiled at him, pointed to the chair and said, "Old Master Zhou, please sit down."
Old Zhou didn't dare to sit down.
Man Bao simply moved the chair a little further, and then helped her parents sit down. Bai Shan also moved a chair aside for his grandmother to sit on.
The prince sighed with the three of them: "My father-in-law Zhou is a righteous man."
Prince Gong's forehead jumped, and he always felt that the prince was mocking him on purpose.
Lao Zhoutou turned red with excitement and said that this was what he should do. He couldn't let his brother die, right?
Moreover, Manbao is the bloodline of their old Zhou family.
The prince also praised Mrs. Liu, thinking that she was a wise, loyal and filial person for being able to raise descendants like Bai Qi and Bai Shan.
Mrs. Liu thanked the prince for the compliment. Although Prince Gong's face looked unhappy, she still breathed a sigh of relief when she looked at the prince, and at Princess Mingda and Princess Changyu who were winking at Manbao.
The food came out from the kitchen, and the prince smelled the aroma. Naturally, Eunuch Wu and others did not dare to let the prince and others eat just like that, so they picked some and ate them first, and waited until they had eaten and found nothing wrong before they used their chopsticks.
The prince glanced at the dishes that were served, because they were very fragrant. Although they were not as exquisite as those in the palace, they still looked good.
So he felt better and asked a few more questions without having anything to say, "So, Zhou Man's life experience is now clear. Can he remember it in his family tree?"
When Lao Zhou heard this, he felt a little guilty, thinking that the prince was talking about whether he had recorded the Xia family's genealogy, so he wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a guilty conscience: "It was recorded in my younger brother's name. But we are all with the in-laws."
We have agreed that when Man Bao has children in the future, one of them will be remembered as the Xia family. Our old Zhou family is very trustworthy and will never deny its credit."
Man Bao quietly tugged on her father's sleeve. Wasn't this self-inflicted?
The prince raised his eyebrows and asked as expected: "Why do you want to remember the Xia family?"
Lao Zhou was stunned and asked: "Prince, you are not asking about recording the Xia family's genealogy."
The prince raised his eyelids and glanced at Lao Zhoutou. Lao Zhoutou felt a chill all over his body. He didn't even notice that Manbao was pulling his sleeves. He shivered and shook them all off, "That's right, that's right, my little brother is marrying into the Xia family."
Yes, Man Bao was originally going to be named Xia, but at that time, how could he dare to tell anyone about Man Bao's life experience, so he changed his surname to Zhou. You see, she is so old, and it would not be appropriate to change it back..."
