Chapter 895 Lost Soul, Can't Find the Door
The servants in Anguo Mansion were told early in the morning that a distinguished guest would be coming to the mansion today.
Up to now, they only knew that a distinguished guest would come to the mansion today, but they had no idea who the distinguished guest was.
They just followed their master's instructions and were very careful at everything, fearing that something might go wrong in front of the distinguished guests.
Thinking that the time was almost up, Duke Anguo Fu Peng took his two sons to the front hall to wait.
Brothers Fu Mingjun and Fu Mingxiu went to the main kitchen to pick up Old Madam Xue and the first and second ladies.
The front hall is a transparent hall with front and back access. It is spacious, solemn and grand. Whenever there are festivals or happy events in the mansion and many guests arrive, the spacious and bright front hall is more suitable because it can accommodate more people.
But, if we talk about warmth and comfort, we have to say the second hall is the best.
Today we are entertaining the Emperor and Empress, and the banquet will be held in the flower hall of the second hall. With the door closed, it is suitable for dining and talking!
The Duke of Anguo and his wife, along with their children and grandchildren, had been sitting in the front hall for about a cup of tea when someone came to the door to report that Suifeng had come first to deliver a message: His Royal Highness Prince Yu would be here soon!
His Royal Highness Prince Yu has arrived, which means that the Emperor and the Empress have also arrived.
Duke Anguo Fu Peng and others did not dare to delay and hurriedly got up and waited outside the mansion gate.
As soon as I walked out of the house, I saw Suifeng who had arrived earlier to deliver a message.
"Greetings, Lord!
Meet the old lady!
Hello, Master Fu!
Greetings, ladies!"
Suifeng stepped forward to greet him.
"No gift!"
Duke Anguo Fu Peng raised his hand to support him.
"My Lord, Madam, several Masters Fu, Madam, our Lord said that you should all treat it as a visit from relatives and friends today. No need to be formal, just be casual!"
After hearing this, Anguogong Fu Peng and others understood...
The emperor went out of the palace in disguise this time. In the emperor's words, he just came to visit the mansion and did not plan to mobilize a large force.
Duke Anguo and the others nodded in agreement, looking up into the distance...
After a while, two carriages were seen from afar, one in front and one behind, coming towards the Anguo Mansion.
When the carriage approached, Duke Anguo Fu Peng and others were already waiting at the bottom of the steps to greet them.
As soon as the carriage stopped, Xiao Jingyu in the carriage behind jumped down first.
He quickly walked to the carriage in front and helped his father down first.
Emperor Hongde got off the carriage and, together with Xiao Jingyu, helped Empress Luan Xiying down.
The Anguo family did not perform a grand ceremony, but just bowed and clasped their fists in common greetings, and the female members of the family performed the blessing ceremony.
Emperor Hongde extended his hand and said with a smile: "Duke, the old lady and several of my dear ministers, please be polite, madam!
The reason I came to your house today is that I was hungry and wanted to ask for something delicious.
We are all family, the more comfortable we are, the better. Otherwise, I will be even more embarrassed!"
"Your Majesty is joking!
It is an honor for our family to have the Emperor and the Empress here!
Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please come in quickly and allow me to serve you tea!"
"Thank you! I am sorry for bothering you!"
The group walked towards the mansion.
After entering the main gate and passing through the second hanging flower door, we went to the second hall.
Empress Luan Xiying held Madam Xue's arm and asked as they walked, "Aunt, why don't we see Yue'er?"
Madam Xue patted Luan Xiying's hand gently and said with a smile, "Yue'er is still busy in the kitchen!
Today's dishes were all made by her alone!
After hearing this, the Queen felt sorry for Leng Rongyue, but was also curious.
"Aunt, can I go to the kitchen to see Yue'er?"
Madam Xue laughed when she heard it, "What are you talking about, Madam?
It's not like the Empress has been to my house before, so why can't she go anywhere?"
Empress Luan Xiying also laughed after hearing this, "That's right!
I know where the big kitchen is without anyone showing me the way!
Once upon a time, when Baozhen and I were playing together, we secretly went to the big kitchen to learn how to cook. One time, we got into trouble and almost burned the kitchen down!
"That's right!
I still remember that at that time, the big kitchen was filled with thick smoke, and the Empress and Baozhen ran out of the kitchen hand in hand. That look... Oh my... It was simply unbearable to watch!
I really don’t know how you ended up playing like that!
When they saw me, one called me "mother" and the other called me "auntie" and smiled at me...
Those two little faces, both were the same pitch black... and when they smiled, you could see a mouthful of little white teeth... I was so scared that I almost died!"
Thinking of the miserable look of the two little girls when they ran out of the thick smoke, Mrs. Xue couldn't help laughing.
Thinking of what happened back then, the first and second wives also remembered it, and several female relatives giggled in the back.
Emperor Hong De was also infected by the laughter behind him and said, "Look at them, how happy they are!
When my daughter Aying came here, it didn’t feel like she was visiting relatives, but more like she was returning to her parents’ home!”
Duke Anguo and his sons also laughed when they heard this.
"Your Majesty, Uncle, and the others will go inside and sit down first. My aunt, my two sisters-in-law, and I will go to the kitchen to check on Yue'er and will be back soon!"
The Queen Mother said to Emperor Hongde with a smile.
"Okay, Ah Ying, just go!"
"Father, I, your son..."
"You are not allowed to go!"
Just as Xiao Jingyu was about to say that he would go over and take a look, he was interrupted by Hong Deli.
"There are only women there, why are you joining in the fun?
I know you want to see Yue'er, and a day without her feels like a long time... Can't you even wait for a little while?"
After hearing what Emperor Hongde said, Xiao Jingyu blushed and was too embarrassed to mention the past anymore.
Only after watching Madam Xue and the two Madam Fu walk away with his mother did Xiao Jingyu turn around.
When he turned around, he saw the brothers Fu Mingjun and Fu Mingxiu standing beside him, looking at him with teasing eyes.
"Um... Big Brother, Third Brother, why are you looking at me like that?"
Xiao Jingyu quickly spoke to hide his embarrassment.
“Look at you?
I didn’t look at you!
We are just waiting for the prince out of kindness, worried that he might lose his mind and not be able to find the door to enter!"
