In March, the warm sun slants into the room and shines right in front of the boudoir bed.
Xu felt the warmth from the sky. Meng Nanke on the bed slowly opened his eyes, put one hand on the edge of the bed, rubbed his forehead with the other, and whispered: "Pearl, Pearl..."
Pearl, the servant girl, had been waiting outside all the time. When she heard the noise, she pushed the door quickly into the room, squatted in front of Menanco's bed, and asked, "Miss, are you awake? Is your head hurting?"
Meng Nanke was dizzy and his eyebrows were locked. He just nodded without saying a word.
Pearl got up and said, "I made a sober soup for the young lady early in the morning and put it in the kitchen to warm it. I'll bring it right away."
After that, Meng Nanke turned around and left the house without waiting for Meng Nanke to respond.
Suddenly, a bowl of sober up soup with just enough heat was brought to Meng Nanke.
The sobriety soup is very sour, which is her most annoying taste. If she were drunk and dizzy, she would rather lie in bed for a day and a night than drink it.
However, today is unusual. There will be a great event in Shengjing City. It is rare to see the excitement. How could Meng Nanke, who has been active since he was young, not go to see it.
Pearl heard from Meng Nanke yesterday that she would go out to play today, which was a joy. It was the first time that she was willing to go out for a walk since her sweetheart married again two months ago.
After leaving the house, they went straight to Zuixianju, went to the attic, sat by the window, and ordered clear porridge and small bags.
Soon, a group of men in royal clothes crowded up from the attic, talking and laughing, and sat down at the window.
Their arrival broke the silence of the attic.
"You said that the prince had been exiled outside the palace for 18 years and had only returned to the palace now, but I don't know whether it is true or not. In case someone deliberately fooled the emperor."
"Brother Wang, you can't say that! Be careful of your superior."
"I'm just joking, joking..."
……
Meng Nanke listened attentively, and all the men were talking about was Junran, the son of the Holy One who had just been found.
It's no accident. This was a hot issue in Shengjing City and even in the whole Northern Kingdom. From the ordinary people to the relatives of the emperor and the country, it was discussed.
Meng Nanke also heard a lot.
Jun Ran, formerly Wang Ran, changed his surname to "Jun" after he recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors.
In those years, Ronglian, his mother's concubine, had no power and power to protect her child from growing up safely in the palace, so she secretly sent him out of the palace from his birth and gave him to her cousin in the countryside.
Now, Ronglian feels that her body is getting worse day by day, so she tells the truth about her childbearing years ago.
The emperor has been childless. At present, he heard that there is still a son among the people, which can be said to be overjoyed. He was eager to send people to look for him. After several times of blood recognition, he immediately welcomed him back to the palace.
Today is the auspicious day for the prince to return to the palace.
At a quarter past three, I heard the footsteps and horses' hooves coming from the window. From far to near, I had not yet looked up to see that it was the prince's return from ancestor worship, and the procession was coming back to the palace along this way.
The others in the attic had already got up and leaned close to the window to look, and Pearl could not help but be curious and poked her head out.
Meng Nanke was not in a hurry. After hearing the people in the street shouting "The Prince is thousands of years old, thousands of years old", he looked down the stairs.
In the vast procession of hundreds of people, there was a walking chariot carried by 16 people.
There is a beautiful gauze around the walking chariot, which just blocks the prince from sitting. His appearance is vague. I can only see that he is wearing a navy blue ceremonial dress, sitting upright, and exudes an imposing air.
"The body is pretty good, but I can't see the face clearly." Meng Nanke murmured in a low voice, sighed slightly, obviously disappointed.
The royal team was still moving forward, and people in the attic were still close to the window to watch the excitement. Meng Nanke withdrew his eyes after the walking chariot passed, and continued to eat her bag.
"Alas, this Junran is really lucky. His adoptive father became prime minister a few years ago. This book is very enviable. His biological father is a saint today, and he is the only prince in the palace. He must inherit the Emperor in the future..."
A diner in the attic sighed.
Meng Nanke, however, did not agree. He whispered to Pearl, "The higher the status, the greater the responsibility on the shoulder, and the more constraints I will be subjected to. I am happy to be born in an ordinary family, so that everything can be done as I like."
Pearl drew back her head when she heard this, and just saw Meng Nanke's bitter smile on his face. She knew that her young lady was thinking of the young man who had married her again.
That childe is in an extraordinary family. Marriage has to be considered for family honor and disgrace.
After dinner, Meng Nanke took Pearl everywhere.
She is funny by nature. Once she plays, she forgets the time. It's time for dinner.
The master and servant ate and drank all the way. They had no idea of hunger. When they returned to the general's house, they did not want to go to the canteen to eat again. They went straight back to their own yard.
Meng Nanke was also very tired. As soon as he entered the room, he fell on the bed.
Suddenly, there was a sharp knock at the door, and then Mammy's voice came: "Miss, Miss, the general asked you to have dinner."
Meng Nanke grabbed a soft pillow and held it in his arms, intending to have a good sleep. He didn't mean to go back to Mammy's words outside the house.
Pearl, who fell on the carpet, got up and walked to the door. "Mammy, please go back to the general. Our young lady is a little tired at this time. She doesn't want to have dinner."
Thinking that there was nothing wrong with this reason, Pearl wanted to go back at the end of her speech.
However, Mammy said earnestly: "Miss, go ahead, Master Meng is coming."
Mammy's voice was so loud that it naturally caught Meng Nanke's ear.
Her eyes suddenly opened wide, and she felt sleepy. She rubbed herself up and wanted to run outside. She looked down and saw that she was still wearing men's clothes. She shouted, "Pearl, help me change my clothes quickly."
