Chapter 133 The feeling of home
"Since my royal cousin ascended the throne, there have been at least forty-seven or forty-eight princes and princesses who were born or not, if not fifty. Now there are only fourteen alive, not even half of them. The death of two princesses in the harem, even if two princes died, is not a big deal. My royal cousin is busy with all kinds of affairs, and he has so much time to take care of these small matters in the harem. As long as it does not threaten the stability of the former dynasty, he will not mobilize a large army to investigate the cause."
Yu Wantai's tone was indifferent, but the meaning he wanted to express was very clear: the death of the two princesses was a man-made accident.
The dog prince actually thought that it was a small matter for the emperor to lose two daughters in one day?
Well, Yan Muxi had to admit that for the emperor, the stability of the country and family was the most important thing, and the death of his daughter was indeed a small matter.
After the third princess died, Concubine De gave birth to another prince. When the second princess died, Concubine Xian and her in-laws were spared from blame, and the forces of the various parties in the former dynasty and the harem were still balanced.
Therefore, even if the truth could be uncovered, Emperor Yuanjing might not be willing to investigate it in detail, because the person who could do something to the princess must be very powerful. If he cuts off a corner of the balance beam, he would have to spend financial and material resources to make up for the other corner.
To put it bluntly, the lives of the two princesses are not worth the emperor's trouble.
Princess Rong would occasionally cook when she felt like it. Old Prince Rong had caught a lot of fish recently and was tired of stewing or braising them, so Princess Rong made a vinegar fish dish according to the recipe.
When the food was placed on the table, both the father and the son tacitly agreed not to touch the vinegar fish. Although Princess Rong did not say anything, her perfectly matched expression of loss seemed to express her dissatisfaction.
Upon seeing this, Yan Muxi picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks and put it into the bowl, "Mother is a great cook. This fish looks delicious." After putting the fish back into her mouth, she almost couldn't maintain the expression on her face.
No wonder the father and son didn't eat the vinegar fish. How could one describe the strange taste? It was like a fish that had been swimming in a vinegar jar for eighteen years, slapping her on the forehead with its tail. It was sour, sweet, salty, and a little fishy.
Fortunately, Yan Muxi was very tolerant of food. She took a mouthful of rice and swallowed the fish with difficulty, not forgetting to praise Princess Rong, "It's delicious. The fish cooked by mother is so delicious. Ugh~, it's really delicious. Ugh~"
As soon as he spoke, the fishy smell from his throat went straight to his forehead. Yan Muxi couldn't help but retching. When he wanted to cover his mouth, it was too late.
Princess Rong looked at it with amusement, "If it's not delicious, then it's not delicious. Can mother cry over such a small thing? There's no need to force praise."
"It's delicious! How could the fish cooked by my mother not be delicious!" Yan Muxi had already started to flatter and couldn't take it back, so she could only praise with tears in her eyes.
"If your wife finds it delicious, then eat more. This fish is yours. You must finish it and don't let your mother down for her hard work in cooking." Yu Wantai exchanged the plate of vinegar fish with the other dishes and brought it to Yan Muxi.
Yan Muxi really couldn't laugh now. The carp used to make vinegar fish weighed more than three pounds. She was afraid that she would die here after eating the whole fish!
"As the saying goes, a son is filial and understands the hard work his mother puts into cooking." Princess Rong looked at Yu Wantai and praised him with a smile.
Yan Muxi's heart sank. He was just thinking about how to stuff the fish into his stomach, but he heard Princess Rong say, "Tai'er is a filial son to his mother, how can he let outsiders take advantage of his mother's kindness? Just eat the fish yourself!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Muxi's heart suddenly warmed up, and it was so hot that it was almost scalding. She hurriedly stood up and pushed the vinegar fish in front of the dog prince.
"I will not compete with the prince for my mother's kindness. The prince's filial piety is so touching that he will definitely eat all the fish."
Seeing her sly smile, Yu Wantai wanted to tease her even more and pushed the fish back, "Husband and wife are one body. The Crown Prince's wife will definitely not be able to see me being filial to my elders alone. Why don't we share my mother's love between husband and wife!"
The smile on Yan Muxi's face froze for a moment, and he hurriedly picked up the serving chopsticks to pick up some food for Princess Rong.
"I dare not argue with the prince about my mother's wishes. Thank you for your hard work. Eat more. Do you think your daughter-in-law is right?"
Princess Rong nodded seriously, "Yes, whatever Xixi says is right. Unlike some people, who say nice things but do another thing. They don't even want to eat the food that mother has worked so hard to cook, and they still have the nerve to flatter and pretend to be filial."
Yu Wantai's face was full of resentment, but he was speechless.
Seeing Prince Dog being humiliated, Yan Muxi's smile became even brighter.
Princess Rong is so nice, she is simply the best mother-in-law in Dafeng. From now on, she decided to cling to her mother-in-law and stop trying to please the vicious and black-hearted prince.
"The fish was caught by me, an old man. Could it be that your mother is the only one who worked hard?" Old Prince Rong suddenly spoke up, his eyes looking at Princess Rong's outstanding job.
Yan Muxi thought about it for a while, then tentatively picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and put it into the bowl of old Prince Rong. The pouting old Prince Rong immediately smiled.
Seeing that there was another big thigh to hug, Yan Muxi immediately launched an offensive, "Father, you have worked hard. This stir-fried Chinese cabbage tastes very good. Father, please eat more..."
"Hahaha... That's enough, that's enough. Xi girl should eat more. You are too thin... Girls are still filial!" Old Prince Rong laughed so hard that he couldn't stop.
The three of them were loving each other. Yu Wantai suddenly felt like he was redundant and tried to find a sense of existence. "I want to eat stir-fried choy sum. Princess, give me some too."
Princess Rong glared at him, "If you want to eat it, pick it up yourself. It's not like you don't have hands!"
Yu Wantai sighed sadly and could only pick up the food himself. To his surprise, he was hit hard with his chopsticks as soon as he stretched out his hand.
The old Prince Rong glared, "Eat fish, don't waste your mother's kindness." When he turned to look at Yan Muxi again, he immediately smiled again, "Father also wants to eat vegetable heart."
Yan Muxi smiled with her eyes curved, and for the first time she felt the feeling of home.
She has few memories of the time before she was abducted as a child, and when she was first abducted, she didn't seem to miss any other relatives except Qian Manman.
Later in Jiangnan, everyone in the Qian family treated her very well, but that kind of respect and flattery did not make her feel like a real family.
It’s different in the Rong Prince Mansion. Parents and children have three meals a day, talk and laugh, and they look like a warm and loving family.
Ever since Yu Wantai came back from the Colosseum, he has been leaving the house frequently. Yan Muxi was too lazy to ask where he went, and he spent most of the day in Zhuxiang Hall.
Seeing Princess Rong getting bored doing needlework in the house, she would go to the lake to accompany old Prince Rong fishing, and occasionally she would fish herself.
Old Prince Rong finally found a friend regardless of age difference. The way he looked at Yan Muxi became warmer and warmer. He talked to her more and more, and they chatted about everything under the sun.
Yan Muxi was very good at observing people's words and expressions since she was a child, and of course she also saw that the old prince Rong was close to her and doted on her. She had always wanted to cling to his thighs, and except for going back to the courtyard to sleep, she wanted to stay in Zhuxiang Hall all day.
On this day, before Yan Muxi got up, Yin Xia came in and reported that Qinghuan from the backyard wanted to see him.
