Fragrance Returned

After talking about this matter, Ding Zhuang's face turned serious. He had already heard Ding Zhao explain the purpose of asking Ding Chi to come here today.

When Mrs. Zhang saw her father-in-law's face, she stood up and said, "I'll go to the kitchen to have a look."

Ding Zhuang nodded with satisfaction. Tang always says that he is partial to the eldest daughter-in-law. People do everything beautifully, so everyone has to be partial.

Xun Xiang whispered, "We have a special guest coming today. He is a disciple of an eminent monk. It is said that he has a strange destiny. My second uncle will help me take a look."

Ding Zhuang held Ding Chi's ear again and said, "Don't spread these things or these words to others, or you will lose your head. Especially you can't tell your wife, she is a myna who doesn't know what to say, she will say anything."

Ding Chi tilted his head and said, "Oh, oh, dad, let go. Your son is not stupid, he knows what to say and what not to say. My master is so capable that he accepted me as his disciple, which means that your son is successful."

Just as he was talking, a young monk Hong and a young monk came.

The young monk was accompanied by Manager Li to the guest room to drink tea.

The young monk entered the hall, bowed to Ding Zhuang very politely and said with a smile, "Old donor Ding, we meet again."

When Ding Chi looked at the little monk, his expression became strange again and his legs were trembling a little.

The young monk was very surprised, "Is this donor sick?"

Xunxiang waited for Ding Chi to look at the young monk many times, then stood up and said, "My second uncle may have caught a cold and is a little nervous. Come on, let's go to Zixuan."

The two took Feifei and Heizi to Zixuan.

Luo Er served a cup of matcha milkshake, a cup of matcha, and Xunxiang personally used milk to draw flowers.

The little monk liked it very much. After drinking the matcha latte art, he drank the matcha milkshake.

He then asked Xunxiang for matcha powder very filially, "I want some to go back to honor my master."

Xun Xiang smiled and said, "Master, I have prepared two cans."

Then he handed him the purse containing the purple dragon slough and Ganoderma lucidum, "It's for the master, keep it safe."

The little monk put the purse in his arms.

At the beginning of noon, Mi Hongmian came and she was brought directly to Zixuan.

The little monk was playing with Feifei and Heiwa in the back garden, while Xunxiang and Mi Hongmian were sitting in the pavilion talking and laughing.

Mi Hongmian kept looking at the little monk.

The two knew that each other knew the identity of the young monk, but neither of them said it explicitly.

Feifei flew higher, and the little monk opened his voice and shouted, "Come down."

The sound was so loud that he startled himself and looked around subconsciously.

Not in a temple, okay.

Mi Hongmian chuckled and said, "Look at the little master having a lot of fun."

Xunxiang smiled and said, "It's rare for him to let go like this. He is very busy, lonely, and very reserved in the temple. However, I heard that he has learned a lot..."

She waved and said, "Come here for a drink."

The young monk walked into the pavilion. Xun Xiang handed the water to him. After he drank it, he wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

The little monk's eyes were full of happiness, and he smiled and narrowed his eyes.

Xunxiang, Mihongmian, and the young monk went to the main courtyard for a vegetarian feast.

Xun Xiang was extremely anxious, so she pretended to be relaxed and played with them until early afternoon. The young monk and the young monk took two food boxes and left first, while Mi Hongmian took one food box and left later.

Xunxiang quickly went to Zhuxuan.

Ding Zhuang and Ding Chi both sat cross-legged on the kang in the east room, looking at the sky and thinking hard. One wants to be an imperial merchant, and the other thinks how his family should get along with the eighth prince.

Xunxiang went in, closed the door, and asked quietly, "Second uncle, how are you doing?"

Ding Chi said, "It's strange. How could a monk have that kind of fate?"

"What destiny?"

Ding Chi stared at Xunxiang and said, "I looked at his face, he has no hair, and I also saw his skull. He he he he is the extremely prosperous appearance of the Nine-Five Supreme Being, although the Nine-Five Luck is not as good as The eldest cousin is much more prosperous than the previous King Qi and King Duan.

"I just haven't touched my feet. I don't know if it will work out in the end... Kekeke is a monk, and at best he can only be an abbot. Is it possible that the temples will be unified in the future?"

He told Ding Zhuang this, and Ding Zhuang was extremely excited. I wonder if the eighth prince will return to secular life and become the emperor, and whether his family will be able to follow the dragon. The stage is on, and those who have the ability to follow the dragon will become high officials...

But these words could not be said to Ding Chi, and he did not know what to say, so he said nothing and waited for the smart Xiangxiang to answer.

Xun Xiang was overjoyed.

The old monk was better at fortune telling than Ding Chi. He accepted Hong Yi as his disciple, detoxified him and raised him safely.

However, the emperor's grandfather did not immediately establish the crown prince, which gave hope to several princes. Maybe he didn't think much of them, and he got some hint from the old monk, and he was waiting for the eighth son to grow up.

I have no feelings or interactions with those princes, and I don't take sides. Just like the emperor, I just sit and watch the clouds roll and relax, waiting for Uncle Xiaoba to grow up...

She rolled her eyes and said mysteriously, "I guess..."

Ding Zhuang and Ding Chi both stretched their heads over.

"Monk Hong Xiaoyi is probably a prince from a foreign country or some overseas country. Because of the fierce competition for the throne or the war, one of his elders was afraid that he would not grow up, so he secretly sent him to Li Dynasty to become a monk.

"Wait until the rebellious ministers and traitors there are eliminated, and then take him back as the emperor. If the rebellious ministers and traitors win, he will only be a monk for the rest of his life."

Then he said with great regret, "Oh, it's a pity that my second uncle didn't touch his feet, otherwise we would have known whether he would be an emperor or a monk."

Ding Zhuang looked at his serious-looking granddaughter, patted his thigh and said, "It must be so, my granddaughter is smart."

Ding Chi felt that this was the only explanation that made sense, and agreed, "That must be the case. We are close to the Kingdom of Koryo, so it is most likely that he is the prince of the Koryo Kingdom, and we do not rule out the possibility of the prince of the Fusang Kingdom or the prince of the Beiyuan Kingdom."

Ding Zhuang threatened again, "Such people have secret guards. Be careful that trouble comes from your mouth. These words will rot in your stomach."

Ding Chi said, "Father, your son is not stupid, so of course he won't tell anyone. If you are close to him, be careful if trouble comes one day."

Xun Xiang said, "Okay, we will be careful."

Ding Chi stood up and said, "I'm leaving. I'm rushing out of the city to the wine shop. Dad, don't just think about enjoying yourself at home. You can watch people make those corkscrews yourself."

In the evening, Ding Zhao and Ding Lichun came back, and they had another small meeting.

Ding Lichun was the eldest son and had already entered an official position, so no major family events would be hidden from him.

Xun Xiang said what he meant. When Hong Yi was a monk, the Ding family could not stand in line and compete with those princes. Because of Queen Ye's relationship, there are also princes who want to win over Princess Dongyang's house. Xunxiang will watch Dongyang and not allow her to take sides...

At early noon the next day, Xunxiang left Ding Mansion and went to Dong Mansion.

Dong Ping went to the Yamen and Mi Hongmian returned to her parents' home. Only Dong Yihe and Mrs. Dong were at home.

Mi Hongmian went back to her parents' house to talk about Hong Yi.

Hong Yi is the eighth prince's business, and only a few core figures in the Mi family, including Mr. Mihou, Mrs. Mi, and the Crown Prince, know about it. The reason why Mi Hongmian knew this was because he occasionally let her go to the temple to burn incense and take a look at Hong Yi from a distance.
