Chapter 981: Uncle's Mansion (1)
Chapter 981: The Grandpa Mansion (Part 1)
Hang Seng is two years younger than Hongli, but because of his strong body, his strength is not weaker than Hongli. If it is true, Hongli is no match for Hang Seng at all.
But after Hang Seng has been studying with him for more than half a year, he has long known that studying with him is studying with him, and competing for him is the matter of the prince and grandson.
Therefore, after working on the court for a while, Hongli was so tired that he was sweating all over his mind, and the two still faced off in a tie.
The guards watching the fun were still watching the fun. When they saw Cao Yong coming to say hello, they alarmed the two people on the field, and then they stopped.
"Father!" Hang Seng's eyes shined and he immediately ran over with his sword.
Although Hongli was sweating profusely and had never beaten Hang Seng, he felt happy and sighed with satisfaction. He took the towel handed over by the eunuch, wiped the sweat from his head, and then walked over to meet Cao Yong.
The two have different ranks and inferiority. Although Hongli is only a half-year-old boy, Cao Yong also wants to meet with him with full courtesy.
However, Hongli knew how to make favors, so he avoided it and returned half a gift.
"Mr. Cao E is here to come here to find Cao Lin?" Hongli asked with a smile.
Cao Yong nodded and said, "I want to go back to Beijing in the afternoon. If it is cheap, I want to bring my dog's son to the end."
In the Nanyuan yard, it is not as good as the study in the palace. Hongli and Hang Seng have a very leisurely homework every day.
After hearing what Cao Yong said, Hongli didn't ask much, but his eyes looked at Hang Seng with a little envy.
Speaking of which, Cao Yong had a few days here since he moved to Nanyuan, but he had several experiences from the school site. As a son of man, the emperor's grandson, Hongli, did not have such treatment.
In the ranch, in the imperial tent, he occasionally met his father, but he was just scolded.
"Now, under the order of Emperor Mafa, Mr. Xu of Hanlin Academy, who teaches us to study in Nanyuan, is the best thing to say. If Prince Cao wants to take Cao Lin home, hello to him; if he is not available, I will just tell him directly." Hongli said.
It’s not that he was too busy to make the Emperor Grand Prince pass the message too frivolously. Cao Yong thanked Hongli for his kindness, but decided to go and find Mr. Xu later.
When Hengsheng heard that his father was going to take him home, his face turned red and could not hide his excitement. His father and the two of them said a few words and made an appointment to meet in the afternoon, so Cao Yong left first.
The rising sun in the east is rising, and the red morning glow adds warmth to this deserted winter day.
Hang Seng turned his head to look at Hongli, hesitated, and said, "Fourth Master, can I take that Hai Dongqing back?"
A few days ago, the tribute from Haidongqing came to the east outside the pass. Hongli and Hengsheng were in front of the imperial court, so Kangxi gave them two of them one by one.
After hearing this, Hongli was puzzled: "Huh? Hai Dongqing is used for hunting, and she still needs to use it for eight days of traveling around. What should I do if I take it back?"
Hang Seng smiled and said, "Take it back for some brothers. I saw it at my grandfather's house in my early years. I will bring it back when I come back tomorrow."
Hongli was speechless and didn't understand that Hang Seng had made his own idea and asked him. He didn't know that Hang Seng was just a habit, and he had to follow his brother since he was a child, and he was used to letting others make decisions for him.
However, looking at Hang Seng's trustworthy gaze, he still felt hot and said, "Is one enough enough? Otherwise, I will bring my one back to you?"
When Hang Seng heard this, he widened his eyes and said, "Let me take both of them back?"
Hongli nodded and replied with a smile: "It's just two birds of prey, so what's the matter? It's just that it was personally given by Emperor Mafa. He always showed his side when hunting. It would be fine if there was a mistake. The Eagle slave who served Hai Dongqing was a slave in our mansion, so let him go back and take care of him."
After hearing this, Hang Seng felt it was troublesome.
If he took a Haidongqing back, it was his own bird, and it wouldn't matter even if there was something wrong. The other was Hongli's. If he shed hair and pulled something in a rare place, it would still drag down his parents.
"It's not about going hunting, it's almost the same if there is one. Do you need to take the slave back to take it back? Let the fifth master see it?" Hengsheng grabbed his head and asked.
For others, Haidongqing is a rare thing; for the princess who are growing up in the royal palace, this thing is common even if they cannot have one. Almost every royal palace has a special bird house, raising birds of prey for hunting, and singing birds for enjoyment and feathers.
Therefore, Hongli waved his hand and said, "If I remember it well, our palace still has two Haidongqing, so I don't care about this..."

Tomorrow is the day when the Guojiu Mansion is hosting. With Cao Yong's status and status today, such social engagements are unavoidable. Therefore, he decided to return to Beijing this afternoon, and then go to Guojiu Mansion tomorrow before going back to Nanyuan Ranch.
Cao Yong made a temporary decision to take Hang Seng home with him.
Before arranging Hang Seng to meet with the Khan Prince, he had a lot to say to Hang Seng, which was inconvenient outside.
As Hongli said, Mr. Xu was a kind and humble person.
He had no choice but to say anything about Cao Yong's leave for Hang Seng.
Therefore, after lunch, Cao Yong took Heng back to the city. The two sea Dongqing and the eagle slaves who served the migratory birds must also follow their father to return.
The father and son were riding in the same car, but Cao Yong didn't know how to speak.
Hang Seng's life experience is not suitable for telling a child in full.
The widow gave birth to a child, hated by the old Khan, and was abandoned by the Khan princess. The inability of this is not something that a child can bear.
But if you deceive lies, you will always expose that day.
Seeing Cao Yong remained silent, Hengsheng was a little uneasy and raised his head and said, "Father... has something to do..."
Cao Yong lowered his head and asked, "Bala and China's master are also in Nanyuan. Have you ever seen it?"
Hang Seng shook his head, a little confused.
"He is the prince of the Khan of the Khalkha, Outer Mongolia. He came to pay his respects with the great lama. He has been looking for two times these days and said he wants to meet you." Cao Yong said carefully.
Listening to this, Hang Seng's face was neither uneasy nor obvious sorrow and joy, but instead showed curiosity: "Bara and China's master? Father, will he still give it to me?"
"I don't know." Cao Yong replied: "But did Hengsheng forget to teach his father in his early years? You should not be greedy in vain, otherwise you will become a fish biting the hook and let others plot."
After hearing this, Hengsheng immediately lowered his head and said, "My father's teachings, I know."
Since he had Bala and Chi around him, Hang Seng felt uncomfortable. Since he was a child, he and his brother lived and ate and lived in the same place, and his brothers could share the same good things.
He was the only gift from the Mongolians. He was not happy to forget his brother. Later, although his brother was also equipped with guards, he always felt something was wrong.
Hang Seng's greed was also born for his family.
No one knows his son, but Cao Yong looked at his honest and well-behaved son and vaguely guessed his thoughts, and couldn't help but sigh in secret.
There was a message sent by someone in the morning in Cao's Mansion.
Although Cao Yong and his son left their home after the birthday party, it took only three or two days, Chu Yu still made careful arrangements and made a special order to use a large pot of boiling water in the kitchen so that the father and son could take a shower and change clothes when they came back.
After Hang Seng greeted Li and Chu Yu, he went back to Songyuan first.
Cao Yong returned to Wutongyuan, took a comfortable bath, and then asked his wife how she was preparing for the gifts of the uncle's mansion.
No matter how Li Sier came from, she had become an imperial decree and would always have to deal with her in the future.
The title of Duke of the Tong Mansion is still unavoidable. The title of Duke of the Hou tribe, 80% of which would be granted the title of Duke of Longkodo. By then, Li Sier was upgraded from his wife to Duke's wife, who was higher in the grade than the Cao family. Even if Li saw him, he would avoid it.
"According to my instructions, the four-color gifts have been prepared. The old lady has also seen the gift list and nodded." Chu Yu said.
Cao Yong remembered what he said to Yiduli casually yesterday and told Chu Yu about his son's marriage.
Once these four sons were helped to straighten their hands, her daughter would become a legitimate daughter, and her status was very unusual. As long as the girls in their family released the slightest sign of marriage, I wonder how many strong people would come to power.
Chu Yu felt much more at ease when she heard her husband's words. As a mother, she also had her own thoughts as her children became more and more serious. For the eldest son, she did not want the daughter of an official family, but wanted to find her in the royal family.
Most of the daughters of officials have passed the imperial examination, and those who are more outstanding must be tied to the royal family. Those who can get married independently are either in poor health or have flaws in appearance.
The daughter of a royal family is much better. It is better to find a girl with good tutoring than a lady on the housekeeper.
While the couple was chatting, Hang Seng had already personally carried the bird cage to his brother's Aoiyuan.
These two Haidongqing are both white and spotted. They stand on the pillars in the bird cage and look very cute.
Not only Tianyou and half of their elders liked it, but even Xiao Xie and Le Lan said that the bird was beautiful and energetic, so they also fed him with pine nuts.
Knowing that Hai Dongqing could only stay in the mansion for a night, everyone was reluctant to let it go. Zuo Cheng volunteered and asked someone to take a pen, ink, paper and inkstone. He wanted to draw a few...

The next day was the fifth day of November, when the Guojiu Mansion was hosted guests.
After breakfast, Cao Yongjiao went to Lanyuan and waited for Li to go out together. Chu Yu also received a post for the banquet, but he was not satisfied yet, so he was not good to go out and show up in public.
Regarding the marriage of the younger generation, Cao Yong greeted Li before leaving home, and said in a unified manner, that is, the one that Tianyou should not marry early.
Tong Mansion, the main house in the inner courtyard.
Li Sier sat in front of the glass mirror, looked at it again and again, but still felt dissatisfied, and threw away the blonde hairpin in his hand and was annoyed.
Longkodo was beside him, drinking millet porridge and watching his concubine dress up with a smile.
Seeing that she was unhappy, Longkodo couldn't even eat, so he asked, "What's wrong? Are you tired of organizing the banquet today?"
Li Sier shook her head and said, "It's all the servants who are doing it. Why are I still tired? But I have invited many female guests today. I'm afraid I'll be too shabby and lose my face."
It is a shame to say that it is "sweet and shabby". Li Sier's whole body, not to mention that she is full of precious energy, her clothes are also good materials.
But when he said this, Longkodo had to coax her and promised to give her two more faces to clean up.
Li Sier was only happy, and his eyes looked at Longkodo were filled with tender words.
Longkodo's eyes fell on the violet jade bracelet exposed on Li Sier's left wrist, and his expression was a little stiff.
