Chapter 996： The first rule of survival in the palace

Chapter 996 The first rule of survival in the palace

Mu Jue poured a bowl of tea to moisten his throat. He also thought about joking and said, "My uncle has people selling ice bricks on the street. The business is really good."

“It’s a penny a piece, and almost every kid on the street has one. Many craftsmen and farmers who come to the city also buy it.

“Everyone says that our family is kind-hearted. Such precious ice is sold so cheaply just to relieve everyone from the heat.”

Just as he was about to respond to the good news, the third princess came through the wind and rain corridor with her maid.

Mu Jue jumped up and climbed onto the rafter.

Jiayin also went out to greet him and asked, "It's so hot, why did you find it?"

"I've been waiting for a long time, but you haven't come over yet, so I came to take a look." The third princess's face was red and she looked around with some disappointment in her eyes, "Didn't you say you made ice cream?"

Jiayin was so funny that he opened the small wooden box next to the table.

The wooden box was lined with a thick quilt, and two small glazed bowls were hidden in the quilt. The bowls were filled with five-color ice cream balls, which looked extremely delicious.

The third princess stamped her feet happily, and the golden phoenix on her head made a tinkling sound when she walked.

“Good news, give me a bowl to eat first. Woo hoo, I’m too hot. If I don’t eat a bowl of ice cream, I’m afraid I won’t be able to walk to the study room.”

The good news was so funny that I immediately took out a bowl.

The third princess cheered, took the spoon handed by Shui Ling, took a big bite, and then narrowed her eyes with a smile.

“You don’t know, since you made this thing the day before yesterday and I tasted it, my mouth is watering in my dreams. Wow, I finally ate it again.

“Good news, please make it for me every day from now on, otherwise I won’t be able to survive this summer.”

While talking, she gave Jiayin another mouthful to please.

Jiayin ate it, but it didn't satisfy her, so he responded, "A woman can't eat too much cold food. Be careful if you get a stomachache and regret it. From now on, eat a bowl every other day and no more."

The third princess knows Jiayin's temper and will definitely do what she says, and there is no point in acting coquettishly.

Although this sister is younger than her, she never dares to act like an elder sister. As for the princess's airs, she doesn't know where to throw them...

"Okay, one bowl every other day is fine. Then the next day I want to eat strawberry flavor, a big bowl!" She could only compromise.

“Okay, this is easy.” Jiayin agreed happily.

They met each other, chatted and laughed, ate ice cream, tidied up briefly, and then carried the insulated box to the royal study.

Before going out, Jiayin glanced at the beams of the house and saw Mu Jue with a pitiful face and eyes full of accusations.

Jiayin was funny, and he glanced vaguely at the cabinet in the corner of the room.

Seeing that no one was in the room, Mu Jue jumped off the rafter and ran to open the cupboard.

Sure enough, there was a small wooden box there, which contained ice cream that was about to melt. His favorite peach flavor...

In the side hall of the imperial study, Manager Feng took off his boots because of the heat and was lying on a rocking chair to rest. Two young eunuchs were fanning him, making him feel very at ease.

Suddenly he heard that the third princess and the good news had arrived. He quickly got up, even wearing his boots backwards.

"Oh, princess, princess! Why are you two here on such a hot day? If you have something to do, ask the palace servants to send a message, and I can just go and listen to the instructions!" Eunuch Feng was as flattering as ever, but his tone was also transparent. A touch of intimacy.

After all, when the palace was sealed, he lived with these two masters in Zhilan Palace for more than ten days, eating and drinking, and gained five or six pounds.

This friendship is also real.

The third princess is a naturally noble girl and has her own arrogance. Even if she wants to say something polite, her tone is firm.

“It’s an unlucky thing that we came here and delayed Eunuch Feng from enjoying the cool weather.”

"Don't dare, don't dare! The old slave is lazy and neglects the princess." Eunuch Feng apologized and wanted to welcome the two of them into the room to sit down, but Jiayin stopped him with a smile. "Eunuch Feng, the princess and I also had nothing to do. We made some ice cream and sent it to Uncle Huang to relieve the heat. But why is there no one in the royal study? Did Uncle Huang go to the garden?"

She is already beautiful and smart, and she talks and laughs like this, which makes everyone happy when they see her.

Eunuch Feng quickly responded, "The princess and the princess are really thoughtful. If the emperor knew about it, he would definitely be happy.

“Unfortunately, Your Majesty... Well, Your Majesty went to the imperial concubine’s place to take a nap and has not come back yet.”

The third princess's face turned cold at that moment. Just when she was about to say something, Jiayin beat her to it.

“That’s a pity. We have walked all the way and the ice point may have melted by half. If we send it to the imperial concubine’s palace, it may have completely melted.

“How about Eunuch Feng helping to eat it? We can cook it for Uncle Huang next time.”

“Ah!” Eunuch Feng was flattered, but extremely happy.

As the deputy chief eunuch, he actually has no shortage of ice, nor food and drink.

But for such a novelty as ice cream, you can tell that it was made by the princess. That must be delicious!

“Thank you so much to the princess and the princess, the old slave deserves it!” Eunuch Feng quickly took the wooden box.

The third princess turned around and left. Caiyun quickly followed and whispered advice.

Jiayin was two steps behind. He chatted for a few words with Eunuch Feng who was seeing him off, and then said goodbye with a smile before catching up.

The third princess wiped the sweat from her head, "I came to deliver food to my father under the bright sun, and he actually ran to see that vixen again! If I had known, I wouldn't have come, and I won't come in the future!"

Jiayin smiled and hugged her, took out a mint candy from his small bag and stuffed it into her mouth.

The sweet and cool taste immediately made the third princess smile.

“Oh, what kind of candy is this? It’s so cool! Give me another one.”

The third princess turned into a robber, snatched a pack of mints from Jiayin, and ran ahead happily.

Jiayin walked slowly behind, glanced over the high wall at the roof of the royal study, then lowered his eyes slightly, hiding all the complications and regrets...

Eunuch Feng watched the princess and her entourage leave. He wiped his sweat and complained softly, "The weather is too hot. It's not going to be a drought."

The little **** following behind smiled and responded, "Chief manager, we don't care whether there is a drought or not. We are just thinking about the ice cream made by the princess!"

“You, old man, are kindhearted and open your children’s eyes. The princess is very clever and ingenious. The snacks and food she sent to the emperor were so greedy every time, and she will definitely not go wrong this time.”

Eunuch Feng smiled and cursed, his face was full of pride, and he started to walk back into the house.

As a result, an old **** in gray clothes suddenly walked out from behind the pillars on one side of the house. He only glanced at Eunuch Feng, and Eunuch Feng shivered.

He hurried over, nodded and listened to a few words, then ran back to pick up the wooden box and sent it over again.

The old **** in gray carried the box and soon disappeared.

The little eunuchs were all surprised and confused when they saw this.

When Eunuch Feng came back, someone couldn't help but ask, "Manager, who is that person? How did you..."

Eunuch Feng slapped the little **** who spoke on the head and cursed in a low voice, "If you want to survive, just remember my words. You didn't see anything just now!"

The little eunuchs were startled, and they all shrank their necks and pretended to be mute.

The first rule of survival in the palace is, you should never ask anything you shouldn’t ask.

The more you know, the faster you will die!
