Chapter 1184 Family Banquet

"Of course they don't want to part with us, but...the two old men have been proud for most of their lives, and the more they get to this point, the more they don't want to be with us. We regard them as close relatives, but we are afraid that they will be with you all the time. I feel that I am a burden, rather than letting them live in frustration in the capital, it is better to let them live in peace and comfort in Ninggu Pagoda, a place with high sky and wide land," Xiao An said softly, and patted Xiao An with one hand Mr. Gu's arm, and said, "Besides, this place is not far from Yanshe, Mr. Gu's hometown, and the old man can go home from time to time to have a look. With Xiao Kong's guards and Cheng Yin around, naturally he will be considerate in everything. Don't worry too much."

"I'm not worried, I'm just sad." Gu Qingtong put down the curtains, leaned on Xiao An's shoulder, choked up and said, "Sister An, sometimes I feel that chance is really wonderful, if it wasn't for that year I was relegated to Ninggu Pagoda, and I happened to be neighbors up and down the mountain with my cousin. I would not have the opportunity to know my grandfather and wife, nor would I know you, Brother Pang, the guards of Xiaokong, and I would not even know Gu. Mr. and Mr. Ding, and...Qin Chong, but now you are the most important people in my life."

"Yeah, I think so too, so we have to look ahead, there will be more beautiful people and things waiting for us." Little An said softly.

...

October 27th, thirty-fourth year of Jiasheng

capital.

Jingren Palace.

Tomorrow is the enthronement ceremony, so naturally Zhong Mingwei will not be free here, there are many things waiting for him to make up his mind, and he has to try on the dragon robe, but it does not prevent Ping Xiwang and Meiya from having a meal together. Dinner.

"Daddy, I made this all by myself, and I don't know if it suits your taste." Seeing Zhong Mingwei and Zhong Zhiling came to the dining room together, Meiya hurriedly greeted her with a smile on her face. Watching Zhong Mingwei call King Pingxi Daddy, she, a girl who has never called her Daddy before, calls her Daddy more smoothly than Zhong Mingwei now.

All three of them took their seats at the round table.

"Everything you do, girl, suits your father's taste." Zhong Zhiling couldn't help but smile from ear to ear when he saw Meiya. He didn't look like a majestic general at all, but like an old father who loved his daughter too much. Avoiding it, he directly took a square box carved with red sandalwood from the guard's hand and handed it to Meiya, smiling, "Before we left, your mother asked me to prepare some greeting gifts for you, good boy, Take it."

"Thank you, dad! Thank you, mother!" Meiya wiped her hands in a hurry, and then took it in her hand happily. The box was about a foot long, and the carving pattern on it was very exquisite. She was a little curious about what was in it. What is it, she opened it to see what it was, but in front of Zhong Zhiling, she was embarrassed, she glanced at the box immediately, and was about to hand it over to the palace man, and then she heard Zhong Mingwei speak.

"Bring it here and show me." Zhong Mingwei stretched out his hand to Meiya.

Meiya was startled, then handed the box over, while slowly moving towards Zhong Mingwei's side, seeing Zhong Mingwei opened the box, her eyes lit up immediately, and she saw that there was a layer of tension inside the box. On the red silk, there is a pair of original mutton fat jade bracelets. The bracelets are shiny and translucent, very simple and unsophisticated. There is not even a pattern carved on them, but anyone can see that it is a rare ancient jade. It's Mei Ya, even Zhong Mingwei, who is so well-informed, can't help nodding, and said to Zhong Zhiling: "It's really costing my mother."

"It doesn't cost money, it's for my own children anyway," Zhong Zhiling waved his hands, took a piece of ginger fish fillet with chopsticks to eat, and immediately gave Meiya a thumbs up, saying, "Just for the girl This craftsmanship should be given to ten pairs of bracelets."

"Then Daddy, please eat more." Meiya was not to mention how happy she was. She was worried about her cooking skills, but now she finally let go of her heart.

Zhong Mingwei put the box aside, then his eyes fell on Zhong Zhiling who was eating heartily, and he frowned for a long time before saying: "Daddy, are you really unwilling to lead the army?"
