Everyone in my harem is talented

Chapter 294: Uncle and Nephew

In October of the eleventh year of Jingzheng, people were coming and going in the Imperial Garden. The view from the waterside pavilion, which was quiet in the midst of the hustle and bustle, was very broad.

If Meng Xinghe was facing the crowd, although he didn't need to salute, he had to nod and smile all the time.

Ever since she ascended the throne of a concubine, which was equivalent to the title of a first-rank prince with an estate of 5,000 households, there had been no other woman from outside the royal family who needed her to perform formalities, except for Your Majesty's aunt, Princess Qin Man of Jin.

The ladies passing by were all led by palace servants to pay their respects to her. Facing the crowd, they had to nod their heads enough and their faces had to smile stiffly.

Meng Xinghe turned around leisurely, sat down at the stone table in the pavilion with his back to the crowd of people who were greeting him, and began to crack melon seeds "elegantly".

"Crack, snap, snap, snap...heitui!"

Huai Xu on the side frowned, "My Queen!"

"The melon seed shell got on my lips, so I blew it away. Don't worry, I had my back to them, so no one could see it.

Moreover, on this waterside pavilion, you don't have to worry about being heard when you speak, click, bang,...heitui!

How come the melon seed shells are so easy to get on my lips? Don't worry, Huaixu, no one can hear the sound of me cracking melon seeds."

Qin Mingyun raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't care much about his mother's ungraceful behavior.

But he himself sat very upright, holding the teacup and sipping it gently.

If Meng Xinghe wanted to see Meng Xingye, he could only do so in public. Calculating the time, Meng Xinghe brought the Fourth Prince to the Imperial Garden to wait.

There is no way. Although Meng Xingye is her biological brother, a stranger is still a stranger.

She dared to let the palace servants bring Meng Xingye to her own palace, Suzaku Palace, for a private meeting between the siblings. Tomorrow, no, today, the impeachment memorial of the group of ritual officials and censors would be written.

This day was His Majesty's holy day, and Meng Xingye, the son-in-law of the eldest princess of Qi, got the opportunity to enter the palace.

Before, Meng Wu Yue wanted to stop Meng Xingye from entering the palace. Fortunately, she now had the power in the palace and would not be easily fooled like the deaf and blind person before, who didn't even know who did it.

Meng Xinghe put down the melon seeds in his hand with a sneer, took the handkerchief handed to him by the palace servant, dipped it in water and wiped his hands.

After paying his respects to His Majesty and the Queen, Meng Xingye was led by palace servants to the Imperial Garden, where he finally met his biological sister.

"Sister, this is my little nephew, I am honored to meet His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince."

Meng Xingye had a stern look, wearing a lilac-colored robe and a red sachet around his waist. His eyes were cold, but when he looked at his little nephew Qin Mingyun, there was a bit more warmth of blood relationship in his eyes.

Meng Xinghe was wearing an exquisite purple palace dress with flowing cloud patterns, with heavy makeup on and a gentle and reserved look, which made Meng Xingye feel a little strange. However, it was not surprising. Although they were twins born from the same womb, they had not seen each other for many years.

"Uncle An!"

"Xingye, sit down quickly."

"Xingye, you..." When Meng Xinghe was about to speak, he paused.

After a while, Qin Mingyun withdrew his gaze from Meng Xingye, and a gentle smile appeared on his cheeks, where the baby fat had not yet faded.

"My mother is always worried about your well-being in the palace. Although this is the first time I've met my uncle, I feel very close to him.

My mother married into the deep palace, and due to the strict palace restrictions, she was unable to contact my uncle.

Now that my mother has become Concubine Hui, I can summon my aunt to the palace at any time and learn about my uncle's situation through her."

Seeing Meng Xingye's drooping eyelashes and dim eyes when he mentioned the word "aunt", Qin Mingyun continued:

"My nephew is currently studying in Shangxiang Palace, which is located on the dividing line between the harem and the outer court. He can barely enter and leave the palace to meet people from the outer court. If it is inconvenient for my aunt, my uncle can go to Shangxiang Palace to find me in person. I will definitely not refuse."

"Your Highness is thoughtful." Meng Xingye was very surprised by the Fourth Prince's words and actions.
