I just believe by doing above you may do that.
I could see that I had to escape * in front of grep as only *grep will
use the system command grep. In eshell Emacs functions have priority
so $ grep alone would invoke Emacs grep and show it in the buffer.
I believe you want it shown in the eshell, right?
