The stupid son of Chongba

Chapter 92 The Queen likes you very much! Miaoyun's expectations
Only when she heard her mother's call did Xu Miaoyun stop what she was doing.

Xu Huizu also let out a howl, covered his butt and ran behind Madam Xie.

"Mom, my sister only knows how to bully me!"

"Look at my butt, it's all bruised and purple, she almost beat it to pieces!"

Faced with her son's complaint, Mrs. Xie was somewhat helpless.

"You are just being self-inflicted, don't you think I don't know?"

She put her hands on her hips and said,

"Would your sister hit you for no reason? Look for the problem in yourself first!"

Xu Huizu's face fell.

"You all bully me, you all bully me..."

"When Dad comes back, I will definitely complain to him!"

Xu Miaoyun came forward and couldn't help but sneer when she heard him mumbling.

"Dad? It's useless even if you bring grandpa out. In this family, if I want to beat you up, no one can protect you!"

She poked Xu Huizu's forehead and said,

"So, you'd better behave yourself and don't mess with me!"

"Who are you showing that face to? Smile for me!"

Xu Huizu's face froze, and then he put on a smile that was uglier than crying.

"Okay, okay, stop making trouble. We have something important to deal with."

Mrs. Xie stroked Xu Huizu's head and said seriously,

"The Queen has sent an imperial decree, asking you to go to the palace and talk to her."

Xu Miaoyun nodded slightly.

"Oh - then I will prepare and go to the palace with mother when the time comes."

she said,

"The Queen is very kind. It's not tiring to get along with her."

Madam Xie pursed her lips and said:
"You didn't hear clearly. I told you to go into the palace alone, not the two of us."

"Mother can only take you to the gate of the palace. After that, you have to rely on yourself."

Xu Miaoyun was stunned when she heard this.

"I?"

"The Queen summoned me to the palace alone?"

"Why...why?"

Her face was immediately filled with confusion.

"Mom doesn't know either. Maybe she likes you very much."

Mrs. Xie smiled slightly and said with emotion,
"Ordinary women from noble families don't have this kind of treatment. You are the only one who can win her favor. This is unique."

"You must seize this opportunity and cherish the chance to spend time with the Queen."

Xu Miaoyun nodded slightly.

Although she was a little surprised, she was not afraid.

"It should be because of Dad. I heard that Dad won another great victory."

Xu Miaoyun suddenly said,

"How can I, a little girl, win the favor of the Queen?"

She was always smart and immediately figured out the key.

Daddy won the battle, so the royal family naturally wanted to win over the Xu family, chat with them, and build closer relations to show favor.

"It's true that it has something to do with your father, but I think it's mainly because the Queen likes you."

Mrs. Xie said seriously,

"Otherwise, she should have summoned me, or at least the two of us, instead of summoning you alone."

"So, don't worry so much. Just behave well when you get there! I can tell you, if you can get the Queen's approval, you will have no worries for the rest of your life."

"In our Ming Dynasty, the most powerful person is not His Majesty, but the Empress. That's what your father said."

Xu Miaoyun nodded.

"Mother, I know."

"When the time comes, I will definitely behave properly and fulfill my duties as a lady."

Mrs. Xie looked at her daughter and was amazed to see that she had grown into a graceful young lady.

"I never noticed it at home, but when I took a closer look, I found that my daughter is quite pretty, and her temperament is also good."

She said with a smile,

"I won't have to worry about getting married. I won't have to worry about getting married in the future!"

Xu Miaoyun pursed her lips.

"Mom, what nonsense are you talking about! I'm still young, and you're thinking about my marriage every day..."

Her younger brother and her mother also said so, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

Am I really old enough to get married?
Not so much...

Mrs. Xie smiled and shook her head.

"Men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. For a family like ours, we should arrange marriages early..."

She waved her hand.

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore. You know what you are doing, and I'm relieved."

"By the way, I have a book here. It was distributed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. It is also distributed by all the officials in the court. You may be interested in it."

"It seems to be a manuscript of His Royal Highness the King of Wu. It is a subject called Xinxue... By the way, you know about it, King Wu, right?"

Hearing the words "King of Wu", Xu Miaoyun's eyebrows suddenly raised.

"I know, I know. How could my sister not know?"

Xu Huizu shouted,

"I saw that my sister was copying the painting that King Wu gave her every day. I don't know how many copies she has made!"

"Hehe, could it be that my sister is interested in this Prince Wu?"

Xu Miaoyun's face turned dark and he slapped him directly.

Snapped!
It hit Xu Huizu's head accurately.

"You little brat just talks nonsense every day. His paintings are good, so I naturally want to study them."

She said unhappily,

“I couldn’t get the essence of it, so I kept copying it.”

"If that's what you call interesting, then I'm the most interested in you. I never forget to beat you up every day!"

Xu Huizu covered his head, not daring to talk nonsense anymore. "Hey... I'm going back to rest."

Madam Xie looked a little tired, and she held her forehead and said,
"You guys should stop making noise and go to bed early, especially Miaoyun. Don't stay up late to study. It's not good for girls to have dark circles under their eyes."

"You are gradually growing up. You should pay more attention to your image. Don't be like a boy, reading books all day long. We are not ugly. We can be pretty after dressing up."

Xu Miaoyun: "..."

"I know, I know."

"Please take a rest!"

She reached out and pushed her nagging mother out, then slammed the door shut.

"This child..."

Mrs. Xie was driven out of the room and shook her head and laughed.

Suddenly, her expression became expectant again.

"From what the Queen is saying, she wants to strengthen the relationship."

"I wonder which prince she will be betrothed to... the King of Jin? The King of Yan? The King of Zhou? Or... the King of Wu?"

"It's unlikely that King Wu will be the one, he's younger than Miaoyun..."

"..."

She walked away, mumbling to herself.

"Sister, mother is mumbling. What is she saying? I seem to hear something like 'king, king'..."

"elder sister……"

"elder sister?"

Xu Huizu stood by the window and watched Madam Xie leave. He was about to talk to Xu Miaoyun, but after calling for a long time, his sister did not respond to him.

Turning around, I saw Xu Miaoyun's pair of almond-shaped eyes staring at the book intently, and she was reading silently.

She closed her eyes and continued to comprehend based on her knowledge of Confucianism.

After a while, Xu Miaoyun finally opened his eyes, exhaled slowly, and his eyes sparkled:
"There is nothing outside of the mind..."

"Conscience..."

"Xinxue, is this really the knowledge he created?"

"It was really shocking to see a gangster's conscience exposed and almost commit suicide. It's a pity that I was not there at the time..."

Wow.

Xu Huizu snatched the scroll and took a look at it, but he found the words difficult to read and even more difficult to understand.

"...Sister, what is this?"

He said with a bitter face,

"Why don't I understand? Heart, heart, isn't the heart just this thing that beats like a thump? Is there so much to it?"

Xu Huizu touched his heart.

It was beating vigorously.

"fool……"

Xu Miaoyun laughed, touched his brother's head, and sighed,

“The heart mentioned here is not your beating heart, but your true self.”

"There is no good or evil in the body, but there are good or evil intentions in the actions. This is really well said, even better than what Master Meng said!"

"This Prince Wu is truly a prodigy. I thought I was already one of the best among my peers, but compared to him, I am clearly nothing."

"Perhaps this is the difference between a genius and an ordinary person. No matter how hard an ordinary person works, they can't match a genius's little inspiration."

Xu Huizu rubbed his face as if he understood something.

true colors?

You mean the face?

"This is a great article. We must preserve it well."

Xu Miaoyun carefully put the book away and said softly,
"After just one look, I gained a lot of insights. It would be great if I could discuss this with him..."

"But he doesn't seem to like me that much and doesn't even bother to talk to me."

She recalled the scene of herself trying to please Zhu Ju but being ignored. The painting that she treasured was once trash thrown away by Zhu Ju.

When Xu Huizu heard the word "like", his ears stood up like radar.

"Sister, you admit it now, right? No boy will like you like this."

He shook his head for a while, as if he was somewhat proud, but he didn't see that Xu Miaoyun's claws were beginning to take shape again...

"I see, you're itching again."

Xu Miaoyun narrowed her eyes and looked at Xu Huizu, expressionless.

The right hand has already aimed at Xu Huizu's ear!

"Hey, hey, hey, sister, don't be angry first! Listen to me!"

Xu Huizu hurriedly said,
"I have a way to make His Royal Highness the King of Wu willing to talk to you!"

Xu Miaoyun paused.

"What can you do, little brat? All you can do is talk nonsense."

She looked somewhat disdainful.

"Hey, even though I'm a child, I'm also a man!"

Xu Huizu said in a low voice,

"I know what kind of girls men like!"

Xu Miaoyun's almond-shaped eyes opened slightly.

"Tell me about it." She put down her hands and listened patiently.

This brat doesn't like to read books, but he is very clever. Maybe he can really tell something about it.

"If you want to be liked by others, you have to know what they like!"

Xu Huizu said in a very mature manner,

"Don't start off by talking about the so-called "Confucius said this and Confucius said that". If you do that, people will be driven away by you!"

"You have to talk about something that interests him and get him talking. That way, the conversation will flow smoothly between the two of you. If the conversation flows smoothly, won't the relationship become closer?"

Xu Miaoyun suddenly realized, and a hint of anticipation appeared in her eyes.

"Yeah - that's the point. He seems to like burning incense and worshipping gods, practicing Taoism or something like that... We can start from there."

She touched her smooth chin, suddenly turned to look at Xu Huizu, and pinched his ear!

"Alright Huizu, you're quite good at it!"

"Who taught you this? Tell the truth!"
