Chapter 220 After Leaving
Chapter 220 After Leaving
Only four princes came, and two left at once. The ministers were a little disappointed. Tonight was a rare and proper occasion to make friends with the princes and place their bets.
However, the two remaining are the main focus among these four. The eldest prince is someone who only loves leading troops and has a very good relationship with the crown prince, so there's no need to bet on him.
That young prince had no mother or maternal clan, and had never been valued by the emperor before, so there was nothing worth betting on.
On the contrary, the remaining third and seventh princes are worth betting on.
When they approached with smiles, they found that Prime Minister Ji and the two dukes had also said they were tired and had gone back first.
This is even better. These are all the emperor's men, and they are getting old. As the saying goes, "A new emperor brings a new court." These old ministers will eventually retire, which makes people feel less relaxed!
Once everyone had left, the banquet began; this was the real start of the banquet.
Jia Daishan and Jia Daihua arrived at the house in silence. Sure enough, their two grandsons were still awake, their heads close together, seemingly talking about something.
Hearing the noise, Jia Hu and his companion looked up and were somewhat surprised to see their grandfathers return.
They thought it would be late tonight, so why are they back so early? Did the banquet end so quickly?
"His Majesty said he was tired and went back first with the First Prince and Prince Yi. Your great-uncle and I were bored there, so we came back early as well."
Jia Daishan explained.
It was still early, and they had just eaten, so it wasn't time for bed yet. Jia Daishan and Jia Daihua decided to sit in their grandson's room for a while before going back to sleep.
The servant brought out the tea, closed the door, and left.
Jia Hu was still pondering this in his heart.
[This isn't right! When they first sent us back, we thought the Emperor was going to start disciplining people, but nothing's happened. What about this banquet?]
Jia Hu was somewhat confused.
What is the Emperor thinking? Could it be that he is really getting old?
Since I have a son, I don't care about anything else?
They simply came out for a stroll, to admire their own land and its scenery, and to rejoice in the glorious achievements of their years of governance!
Jia Hu felt that based on his interactions with the Emperor, things weren't that simple!
Now Jia Daishan and the others are used to it. Hu'er keeps many things to herself and complains about them, but she doesn't show it on her face at all.
It takes many years of official service to develop this skill.
My little grandson is so young, yet he has such abilities; he's really amazing!
Jia Daishan was very happy.
"His Majesty will stay here for a few more days. Tomorrow he will visit some famous local attractions, and we will definitely go with him."
"Grandpa, where are we going?"
Jia Hu was really looking forward to going out to enjoy the scenery, so that the trip wouldn't be in vain.
Although I'm supposed to be working with the big shots, I'm just a nobody, and nobody will care about me.
Jia Hu was completely wrong about this. Although it was not mentioned at the banquet tonight that the Emperor had recognized him as his godson,
But once they leave and the wine is drunk, the whole of Jinan will probably know by tomorrow that the Emperor has recognized him as his godson.
In that case, he'll still be nothing but a nobody tomorrow!
At such a young age, he has the backing of the Duke's mansion, a noble title, and inventions.
Now that he's the emperor's godson, so many people are eager to get him. I'm afraid quite a few families have already started looking for girls of suitable age in their own families.
Whether they could bring him along tomorrow was something the young prince and his family dared not even think about, but Jia Hu was just right. They could play together and also get to share the childhood friendship they had shared!
