After taking a few sips of tea, Long Lin continued to speak.
"Master Situ, the people just now should all be members of Master Situ's family, but why didn't I see my wet nurse?"
He came here mainly to visit his wet nurse.
It had been five years since they were separated, and Long Lin actually felt a little missing in his heart.
But as soon as he said these words, he immediately noticed that Situ Heng's face became very embarrassed.
After thinking about it carefully, Long Lin suddenly realized that he had made a joke.
There is no doubt that the wet nurse is from the Situ family, but the wet nurse is already married. How could he meet the wet nurse when he came to visit the Situ family?
"Ah...I'm sorry, I didn't think of it at the moment. I hope Master Situ can forgive me."
"It doesn't matter. Your Highness can care about Jing'er. This is Jing'er's blessing. Although Jing'er is not here, her son happens to be in the house these days."
When Long Lin heard this, he immediately became interested. Is he the nanny's son?
"Master Situ, where is he? Could it be that he is this handsome young man?"
From the beginning, Long Lin noticed this young man, but didn't pay much attention to it.
He never thought that this young man would be the wet nurse's son.
No wonder, Situ Heng sent everyone away except this young man, who seemed to have anticipated everything.
Looking at this young man carefully, Long Lin found that he was indeed very handsome, much taller than him, and he did look very similar to his nanny.
After hearing his words, the young man took the initiative to take a step forward and spoke politely.
"Your Highness, Du Bing, thank you for your praise. I am the son of your wet nurse."
"Ah, Du Bing, what a good name, very good. With the relationship of wet nurse, you and I are naturally no strangers. You can come to my house to find me at any time in the future."
"Okay, Du Bing thanks His Highness and will definitely visit His Highness often in the future."
Long Lin nodded and remembered Du Bing in his heart.
"Master Situ, what is your official position in the court? This time I am serving as an official. I hope Master Situ can give you more guidance in the future."
"Your Highness is serious. I am currently serving as the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. If Your Highness can come to the Ministry of Industry, I will fully cooperate with Your Highness. If necessary in the future, Your Highness can come to me at any time."
Long Lin smiled and nodded, keeping it in mind.
It turns out that the wet nurse's father is one of the six ministers of the imperial court.
"Okay Master Situ, I will definitely bother you more when the time comes."
"Du Bing, I see you are about the same age as me. Have you already taken part in the imperial examination?"
Du Bing smiled shyly and shook his head slightly.
"Back to Your Highness, I need to continue to deepen my studies. I have not yet taken the imperial examination. I will take the imperial examination when I can improve again."
"Well, very good, I believe you will be able to pass high school. You are the nanny's son, and you will definitely be able to win glory for her."
"Yes, Your Highness, Du Bing will continue to work hard and not let everyone down."
Long Lin nodded, continued to chat with the two of them for a while, and prepared to get up and leave.
As soon as I got up, I realized that a table full of food had been brought in.
The intention was so obvious that Long Lin couldn't put it off, so he ate with everyone at Situ's house.
During the dinner, one of Situ Heng's grandson and three granddaughters also participated in the meal, and they were all around the same age as him.
During the whole process, we had a great time chatting with each other. Long Lin felt warm and very happy.
But the behavior of these girls was obviously completely different from what he had seen in his previous life.
Long Lin also had some understanding of some things in ancient times. The situation in front of him was enough to show that there had indeed been obvious changes here.
Women who have not left the court can meet people without having their feet bound, and their status has obviously improved a lot.
He speaks in a gentle manner and never shows his teeth when he smiles. These are the upbringings of a wealthy family, but they are not overly restrictive.
After the meal, Long Lin left Situ's house, declined all the gifts from Situ, and left in a sedan chair.
Situ Heng was by his side throughout the whole process, and everything made Long Lin feel very comfortable.
With Situ Heng being so enthusiastic, Long Lin could not help but wonder from the beginning whether he was trying to curry favor with him on purpose?
But from the conversation to the dinner together, Long Lin felt deeply that Situ Heng had no such intention at all, and it was obvious that he regarded him as a family member.
Not only Situ Heng, but also the boys and girls in the Situ family obviously regarded him as a brother and sister.
This situation is most likely caused by Situ Heng deliberately, but it has to be said that he really likes this atmosphere.
After leaving Situ's house, Long Lin returned to his mansion.
He needs to dress himself up well in preparation for entering the palace in a few days.
This is definitely the first time for him.
Although he had gone through training in a place like the court, he was still a little uncontrollably nervous.
The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all old men over fifty years old. The aura of these important ministers of the country was definitely extremely powerful.
He didn't know whether he would have stage fright on that day, so he had to prepare well, at least in terms of appearance, so that there wouldn't be any problems.
He had no experience as an official, and all he saw and heard was hearsay. Long Lin was really unsure whether he could succeed in an official position.
And this time he goes to court, it is also very important, it directly determines what kind of official position he will take, and what kind of things he will do in the following years.
Let alone being an emperor, he suddenly felt that being a minor official was not a particularly easy task.
The only good thing is that he is a prince, and others should be more or less accommodating to him.
Since he is here, he is at ease. He is the prince anyway, so he can be relieved of his nervousness.
*..*
After several days of continuous running around, Long Qi finally returned to the capital.
After calculating the time, there were still a few days left, and Long Qi immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Rushing back to the mansion, after freshening up and resting for a day, Long Qi rode in a carriage, leading three shadow guards, towards the direction of Lei Mansion.
Long Qi was no stranger to Lei Mansion, he had had contact with it in his previous life.
Lei Mansion was not particularly kind or bad to him. He gave him countless amounts of money and his attitude was very easy-going.
But in the hearts of everyone in Lei Mansion, the only one who supported him in the previous life was his brother, and they had always treated him with money.
As time passed, he became too lazy to go.
But this life is different, this place will be his help, and it will be a very determined help.
He needs to fight for the rest of the help, but Lei Mansion does not need it at all. He is just like Ming Jing in his heart.
All the way to Lei Mansion, Long Qi got off the carriage early.
As soon as his figure appeared, several servants immediately rushed towards the mansion.
Long Qi showed an evil smile and walked straight over with his head held high.
A servant had already rushed over and introduced him into the mansion politely and respectfully. As soon as he passed the small courtyard, a shocking scene appeared.
Grandpa, grandma, uncles, aunts, cousins, a large group of people stood in front of the front hall.
