Chapter 378: I'll help you stand taller

Among the eleven sons of the first emperor, except for the four who stayed in the capital, the others were directly "eliminated" by the Chengde Son of Heaven.

So is the former Eighth Prince.

Of course, now that Taikang Tianzi has ascended the throne, this King of Yueyang can no longer be called the prince T.

This eighth prince, in fact, is not too much of a problem, delicious is not a problem, after all, in the royal family, no matter what jade hope, can basically be satisfied.

His biggest flaw is that he is not ambitious.

This guy has been fond of food since he was a child. He ate himself into a fat man early, hid in the palace every day to study recipes and eat, such a character, Chengde Tianzi naturally looked down on it, so when he was sixteen years old, he drove him out of the capital to become the king of Yueyang.

After the brother and sister met, the little fat man was heartbroken.

"Xiao Jiu, why did you lose weight like this?"

Four years ago, the ninth princess, who was only twelve or thirteen years old, was still a little baby fat, but now she will grow up and look a lot thinner than before.

Although the ninth princess was sick, she was amused by his words, and covered her mouth and smiled, "Starling, you have gained a lot of weight." ”

The little fat man glanced at his sister resentfully.

"Don't call starlings if you say yes, it sounds like a bird."

Xiao Jiu got up and pretended to be serious.

"Eighth brother, you have gained a lot of weight."

The little fat man smiled happily, sat on the edge of the bed of the ninth princess, and asked, "Xiao Jiu, are you better?" ”

"Much better."

The ninth princess was also very happy, and said with a smile, "The heat has subsided today, and it is estimated that it will be fine in a few days." ”

"I'm not in a hurry to go back to Beijing."

The little fat man smiled and said, "Just go to live with me for a month or two, otherwise if you go back to the capital, our brothers and sisters may not be able to see each other in this life." ”

The vassal king sounds good, but after the change of dynasties, the vassal king of the Great Jin Dynasty no longer has any authority, and he cannot leave the fief without a holy decree, so he can only eat and wait for death, but this is very in line with the life ideal of the little fat man, he has been a vassal for four years, and he has married seven or eight wives.

The Ninth Princess grinned.

"You have a domain, but I don't, and I'll be empty in the future. I will often come to Yuezhou to see you. ”

The little fat man sighed, "I'm afraid that if you get married, you won't be free, by the way, even if you are old, you have reached the age when you should marry, did the imperial brother arrange a horse for you?" ”

The ninth princess glanced at Li Xin, and then said, "My father's mourning period has not passed, what are you talking about?" ”

King Yue Yang also glanced back at Li Xin, then nodded and said, "Yes." ”

mentioned this incident, the little fat man was a little sad, "When I left Beijing, my father was still in good health, how did it take just a few years of hard work to become this situation, at that time I also handed the documents to the imperial court, ready to go to the capital for funeral, but the imperial court did not reply, and I did not dare to leave Yuezhou." ”

Speaking of this, the former Eighth Prince looked at Xiao Jiu and asked, "Is my mother okay?" ”

"The concubine is in good health."

King Yueyang sighed and said softly, "I haven't been back for several years, and when Xiao Jiu returns to the capital, intercede with the imperial brother for me, just say that I want to go back to the capital to see my mother." ”

The little fat man's mother is Concubine Zhen of the Son of Chengde, Concubine Zhen is pregnant with two sons and a daughter, the two sons are the eighth son and the eleventh son of the emperor, the eleventh prince is only thirteen or fourteen years old this year, and he has never been out of the palace in the palace.

The Ninth Princess smiled and said, "Okay, I'll mention this to the imperial brother when I go back." ”

King Yue Yang stood up, waved his hand and said, "Okay, after all, this is an outsider's garden, it's inconvenient to speak, my palace is not far from here, let's go to my house and say." ”

The ninth princess was happy at this moment, and her spirit was much better, she smiled and said, "Okay, I haven't seen what the starling's palace looks like." ”

Li Xin hesitated slightly.

He turned his head to look at the little fat man, and said, "Lord Wang, the eldest princess can naturally go to you, but it is inconvenient for me to go there." ”

King Yue Yang's eyes widened.

"Marquis Li can't afford to look down on this king?"

Li Xin shook his head.

"Lord Wang, I have three thousand forest guards in my hands, and I am still serving as a squire in the military department, and I ...... In short, it is not convenient to be too close to the foreign domain. ”

Li Xin smiled and said, "I'm definitely fine, I'm just afraid that it will affect the prince." ”

"What are you afraid of?"

The little fat man is arrogant.

"I don't have any guests in my family, and I don't gather forces, if my sister-in-law and brother-in-law come, I have to avoid suspicion and can't entertain them, then this prince doesn't have any meaning in doing it, just let the royal brother make an order to abolish it."

With that, he stretched out to leave.

Li Xin and Xiao Jiu glanced at each other, and they were helpless to follow this fat man.

It's just that only the two of them went, and Li Xin ordered Mu Ying to stay in the garden with Yu Linwei, and no one left with him.

There is no way, if you want to avoid suspicion, you can only go over as a "quasi-brother-in-law", otherwise Li Xin's identity will not be able to make friends with foreign vassals.

Frankly speaking, if it weren't for the fact that this little fat man looked pretty good, Li Xin wouldn't be willing to take Xiao Jiu over.

At noon, Li Xin and the Ninth Princess arrived at the Yueyang Palace, frankly speaking, although this palace occupies a lot of land, it is not very exquisite, it is worse than Li Xin's Jing'an Hou Mansion, the only thing that can be seen is the maids in the palace, they are still a little beautiful.

What made Li Xin most astonishing was that there were four or five little dolls who could run on the ground, some men and some women, all of whom gathered in front of the eldest princess and called their aunt.

made Xiao Jiu scramble.

This time, Li Xin was completely impressed by this little fat man.

In four years, I gave birth to five or six people who can run, and it is conservatively estimated that there are at least five or six people who can't run, this little fat man...... It's not easy.

If this continues, there is the potential to become the king of Zhongshan...

When it was time to eat at noon, the little fat man was proud.

"Xiao Jiu, Brother Wei has visited the chefs in the entire vicinity of Yuezhou in the past few years, and only then has he invited such a few chefs, not to mention anything else, the food of my Yueyang Mansion is definitely not inferior to the capital."

The brother and sister have the same hobbies, so Xiao Jiu naturally nodded again and again.

Little Fat Man, Little Fat Prince's Princess, Li Xin, and the Ninth Princess, there are a total of four people at a table, and there are probably more than 20 dishes.

Xiao Jiuqiang endured the torture of illness and tasted each one.

"Okay."

This is the evaluation of the Nine Princesses.

These dishes are actually very delicious, but in the minds of young people in their twenties, of course, junk food is more delicious.

The little fat man feasted and ate his round belly even more.

In the afternoon, the ninth princess could no longer bear the idea of showing off in patience, took Li Xin's hand and said, "I want to eat fried chicken thighs......

"I want to eat kebabs..."

Li Xin glanced at her, "I'm sick, I can't eat." ”

"But you can give it to the starling, he is so greedy, he will definitely die for you after eating it."

Xiao Jiu raised his eyebrows at Li Xin, "You make it, promise to kill him." ”

"What are you trying to please him?"

The eldest princess of Qinghe lay in Li Xin's ear and spoke softly.

"Starling, he's very powerful."

"His mother, Concubine Zhen, is the daughter of the seed family."

Li Xin was silent.

The ninth princess continued, "That sister of the starling brother is my third sister, who is married to the second son of the Zhang family. ”

Zhang's family is Zhang Qu's family.

She said softly, "You told me before that you should stand higher and go to Li Shen to settle accounts, I remember everything." ”

The eldest princess gritted her teeth.

"Li Shen is so hateful."
