Chapter 346 My surname is Ma, the wind blows the grass and sees the horses of cattle and sheep
Zijiang Palace
The New Year banquet will take nearly an hour to start, so Ma Jin is not allowed to attend the banquet at the moment, but there is no need to wait. A palace servant will introduce him to a side palace.
There were several people sitting inside, the three princesses who came to congratulate Ma Jin on his birthday.
Ma Jin followed the palace people into the hall and immediately alarmed the three people inside. The second prince-in-law Han Xiang immediately stood up and greeted him with a smile. The eldest prince-in-law also stood up. Although he did not come to greet him like Han Xiang, he also nodded and smiled at Ma Jin.
Only the third prince Luo Ziwen stood up as if he was dealing with it, then sat down and drank tea on his own, and even owed Ma Jin a smile.
Ma Jin naturally saw this and did not express it. He knew in his heart that with the relationship between the two families, Yan Yi and King Qing were in the same state, Yan Yan and the third princess were in disagreement, and Luo Ziwen's attitude towards him was normal.
If Ma Jin is the other party, it is no exception. At most, it can be more tactful and make it look better on the surface.
However, this cannot be said that Luo Ziwen is not cunning. Perhaps he just deliberately gave up his own face and was straightforward and did not want to have a hypocritical social engagement with him.
………
Luo Ziwen ignored him, and Ma Jin did not touch his cold butt. Last time he had to respect his status as a prince consort, so it was not easy to be too cold.
Now that the imperial edict has been issued, in terms of identity, the two are equal, and even referring to the official position alone, Luo Ziwen has to honestly call himself a subordinate.
Of course, they are all son-in-laws, and this official body does not have much effect on them, unless they are the kind of important officials of Zhu Zi, first and second ranks, and even such bigwigs have to be polite to them in normal times. Who makes them the emperor's son-in-law?
………
After a month and a half, Han Xiang seemed to have forgotten that he had already forgotten that because of the unhappiness caused by the painting in Ma Mansion, he smiled and pulled Ma Jin in.
After several people saw the ceremony, they even asked Ma Jin to sit next to him and praised Ma Jin's outfit.
"Zi Sheng's outfit is very energetic, especially this belt, which is exquisite and elegant, and is paired with this brocade robe, and is handsome and handsome.
When you entered the door just now, I was stunned, thinking that some handsome young hero had come in."
Because of Ma Jin's identity change, Han Xiang simply called him directly.
However, his name is Ma Jin, and Ma Jin cannot call him directly. Although he issued an imperial edict to marry Yan Yan, he has not been married yet. Ma Jin is not a formal son-in-law. If he said it privately, it would be fine, but today's sensitive day, Ma Jin will not be caught.
Others don’t know, but he knows how much Jingkang Emperor values rules.
Not to mention others, it is his old enemy Jin Tao. The ex-boyfriend in front of him was displeased by Emperor Jing Kang because he did not value rules and ethics, so he lost the position of the third son-in-law. Otherwise, there would be no matter what Luo Ziwen is doing today.
………
"The third prince consort was joking. Ma Jin looked average, so he didn't deserve the word "Feng Shen"? It was just because of this year's New Year banquet that he specially dressed up and could not be praised by the prince consort."
Having said that, from the smile on Ma Jin's face, Han Xiang's words came to his heart.
I have to say that among the three princes, Ma Jin likes to deal with Han Xiang the most, he is good at talking and tactful. For example, when I came up today, I praised Ma Jin's carefully prepared clothes, and also praised Ma Jin for his handsome appearance.
Regardless of whether it is sincere or not, these words are just as comfortable to hear.
In fact, in Ma Jin's heart, he was slightly inferior to his appearance. Of course, he was not ugly, but compared with a handsome man like Han Xiang and Luo Ziwen who were one of the best among thousands, he was inevitably short of his strength.
Even the eldest prince-in-law Di Jiang, who looks a little inferior to Han Xiang and others, has thick eyebrows and big eyes, looks tall and strong, and has a masculine and majestic spirit. Compared with him, Ma Jin seems less outstanding.
Of course, Ma Jin is a brain-based person and does not rely on his face to make a living, but not relying on his own does not mean he is not envious. If he can look so beautiful, who would have thought that he is ordinary? He is not Louis Koo...
………
Because of Han Xiang's words, the relationship between the two was established suddenly. Han Xiang had time to talk to him about the precautions for the New Year banquet.
Although most of Ma Jin learned from Yan Yi, some things that Yan Yi did not mention benefited Ma Jin a lot.
While Ma Jin and Han Xiang were having a happy chat, another palace man led a beautiful young man in a gorgeous dress and handsome face into the side hall. Needless to ask, it seemed that it was Hu Zheng, the future four princess consort.
Unlike when Ma Jin came, only Han Xiang was greeted by him, Hu Zheng entered the hall, and all the four people sitting in the hall, including him, stood up to greet him, which surprised Ma Jin.
However, he quickly realized that Han Xiang didn't need to say much, and played the role of a good man. When Hu Zheng entered the hall, he naturally had to stand up to greet him. Luo Ziwen was easy to understand. He had a rift with Ma Jin, but he had no grudge with Hu Zheng and would not lose his manners.
But only the eldest son-in-law Di Jiang, Ma Jin did not guess it. When he came in, he just stood up to greet him, while Hu Zheng walked in and stood up to greet him with a smile on his face.
But soon he also learned the reason. Uncle Di Jiang's former general Di Yi and Hu Zheng's father both seemed to be military generals and had a good relationship. Di Jiang and Hu Zheng were also old friends and had a good relationship, so they stood up to greet him.
However, despite this, Ma Jin was still a little dissatisfied with Di Jiang. It was not that he was stingy, but that Di Jiang did this like a double standard.
Ma Jin and Hu Zheng have the same identities, but he treats each other differently. As he and Hu Zheng are acquaintances, they can't help but lose Ma Jin's face.
Compared with it, it is not as good as Luo Ziwen. The third prince consort clearly showed disagreement with Ma Jin from the beginning, with a clear sword and a spear, showing his true nature.
Ma Jin didn't know whether Di Jiang did it unintentionally or was dissatisfied with him and deliberately made him exert his power. Anyway, the slim Ma Jin remembered Di Jiang's move in his heart, and it would be effective every day.
If he had no intention, Ma Jin would not have been scruples with him, but if he had no intention, he would have to let the prince-consort know that his old horse's face was not easy to lose.
………
Let Di Jiang’s affairs be put aside, and Hu Zheng, who had just arrived, had another trouble.
After he had seen the ceremony with Luo Ziwen according to his identity, it was Ma Jin's turn. Just as Ma Jin smiled and bowed to the ceremony, Hu Zheng turned against the friendly attitude he had when the three of them had just met, and said contemptuously to Ma Jin.
"Are you the Lao Zijin of Princess Shangwu? It's not so good."
Ma Jin looked up at Hu Zheng with a provocative face, frowned slightly, and the smile on his face gradually became restrained.
"I am a horse whose surname is Ma, and I see cattle and sheep on the grass. My full name is Ma Jin. Isn't it a waste of time?"
The voice was cold and hard, although there were still witty words, judging from Ma Jin's face, everyone present understood that Ma Jin was angry.
Han Xiang was a little worried, and took a step forward, and wanted to persuade him, but after thinking about it, he still didn't speak. Luo Ziwen took a step back and watched the storm with gloating pleasure. The eldest son-in-law Di Jiang frowned at Ma Jin, reached out and gently pulled Hu Hu Zheng to calm him down.
However, Hu Zheng ignored Di Jiang's intention and sneered: "Ma Jin? Who gave this name? It's so ugly?"
………
As soon as these words were said, everyone changed color, and Ma Jin was even more angry on his face. He shook his hand and slapped Hu Zheng's handsome face.
Smack
"Who are you? A rich man dares to insult me?"
Ma Jin slapped her and was still not satisfied. She lifted her feet and kicked Hu Zheng in the stomach, then pulled out the golden belt around her waist, and thrust her head and face again.
