Chapter 1417: Master is afraid to lose money(1/2)
Seeing the lively scene in the wedding hall, the fourth baby couldn't help but think of his mother's red eyes.
Although he told himself again and again that his father would definitely come back, he was not sure in his heart.
Siwa felt a little uncomfortable, turned around and came out of the wedding hall.
Otherwise...should I go back to the Princess's Mansion to accompany my mother?
Siwa was thinking in his mind.
He just saw Aunt Pomegranate also come to the Hou Mansion.
My mother stayed alone in the princess's mansion, feeling lonely and secretly sad.
The fourth child turned around and walked towards the gate.
Prince Xiaoyao was standing at the gate of the Hou Mansion, standing with his hands behind his hands like a wandering wild crane, when he saw a young boy of twelve or thirteen years old walking out of the gate.
The young boy has thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a straight body.
He walked like a tiger, and every step seemed to carry the aura of an iron-blooded soldier.
King Xiaoyao's eyes lit up.
This little guy is great!
If you carve it carefully, you can say that it is a fierce general.
Don't ask King Xiaoyao how he could tell, because Siwa's walking pace was similar to that of the trained soldiers at the border.
It can be seen that it should be practiced normally.
Moreover, his eyes are clear and bright, and he has a sense of perseverance and tenacity.
When the porter saw the fourth baby, he immediately bowed and saluted.
"Master Fourth Grandson."
Siwa nodded slightly.
King Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you the grandson of Marquis Zhongyi?"
Siwa nodded instinctively, looked at King Xiaoyao, and asked hesitantly: "Are you..."
"Si baby, this is King Xiaoyao."
Xuanyuan Jin's voice came from behind Siwa.
King Xiaoyao looked at Xuanyuan Jin who was striding towards him, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, the Crown Prince."
"I don't know that Your Majesty is coming here, but I am missing out on you. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Xuanyuan Jin said politely.
A flash of interest flashed in King Xiaoyao's eyes.
His Highness the Crown Prince has such a masterful tone. I wonder if he has noticed it himself?
"This king came uninvited, but I wanted to invite His Highness the Crown Prince. Don't be surprised."
Xiaoyao Wangxiao's Qingfengmingyue, but the meaning in his words is very connotative.
Logically speaking, this kind of thing should be said to Old Man Su.
Xuanyuan Jin is not from the Su family, so now that King Xiaoyao said it to Xuanyuan Jin, it would naturally be somewhat meaningful.
The expression on Xuanyuan Jin's face did not change at all, and he said calmly: "Your Majesty can come and make Peng Pi shine. How can I blame him?"
Xiaoyao King: "..."
You really treat yourself as a host!
King Xiaoyao still had a smile on his face.
It seems that the Su family has a very important position in the heart of His Royal Highness.
Even the general's palace of the prince's maternal family is probably not as good as the Su family.
I just don’t know whether the Su family’s important status is because of the Su family or because of the little girl from the Su family.
King Xiaoyao thought to himself.
"I will be leaving Beijing soon and will not be able to attend the canonization ceremony of His Highness the Crown Prince. I have prepared a generous gift for His Highness the Crown Prince. I hope His Highness the Crown Prince will not dislike it." King Xiaoyao said and glanced at Wu Yong.
Wu Yong quickly held the wooden box in both hands, bowed and handed it to Xuanyuan Jin.
Xuanyuan Jin: "..."
This gift is quite fair and honest.
However, judging from the information I got, King Xiaoyao probably would not give gifts in order to avoid suspicion.
In recent years, King Xiaoyao has not given any gifts to anyone in the capital except for birthday gifts to his father.
Xuanyuan Jin was confused in his heart, but his face didn't show it at all.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Xuanyuan Jin signaled Zhang Cheng, who was following him, to take the wooden box.
King Xiaoyao suddenly sighed and said in a shameful tone: "Speaking of which, I came to Beijing in a hurry this time and didn't bring much money with me. Just now, in order to buy this gift for His Highness, I had to mortgage my jade pendant.
Gave it to someone else.”
Xuanyuan Jin: "..."
The corners of his mouth twitched.
Zhang Cheng: "..."
stunned.
Is this prince asking for money?
Zhang Cheng subconsciously looked at Xuanyuan Jin, waiting for his master's instructions: should he give him money or withdraw the box?
"In this case, I can't let the prince spend so much money. I appreciate the prince's kindness. Why don't you return this gift and get the jade pendant back?" Xuanyuan Jin said calmly.
Zhang Cheng quickly handed the wooden box to Wu Yong.
Wu Yong stepped back and refused to take it back!
King Xiaoyao couldn't help but hesitate after hearing Xuanyuan Jin's words.
This is different from what he imagined.
Things didn't go according to my plan...
"His Royal Highness, are you sure... that you want to return this gift?" King Xiaoyao said, raising his eyebrows in a somewhat meaningful tone.
Hint…hint…hint…
A strange feeling flashed through Xuanyuan Jin's heart, and he took a look at the wooden box.
He was sure that there was something weird about this gift.
only--
"Confirm! The jade pendant that the prince carries with him is so important, so he must take it back!" Xuanyuan Jin said with certainty.
Xiaoyao King: "..."
Even though he hinted like this, His Highness the Crown Prince remained unmoved.
King Xiaoyao suddenly felt a little aggrieved.
His Royal Highness is said to have ulterior motives and an extremely sharp mind. He is also vigorous and resolute in his actions, and his methods are sophisticated and ruthless.
Is it possible that you didn't see what you meant?
Okay, maybe I'm self-defeating.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should not be underestimated.
King Xiaoyao laughed dryly, but still looked leisurely and contented, and said: "There is no rush. Your Highness, why don't you open this gift and take a look before making a decision."
"No need!" Xuanyuan Jin flatly refused, his eyes slightly cold.
He doesn't like to be led around!
I have to say that the gift inside really caught his attention.
To be continued...
