When it was time for the next assembly, the emperor intentionally glanced at Prince Chu, but every time, he would be preoccupied with his own matters and leave the throne room together with the officials. The emperor wanted to stop him, but he left without looking back. The emperor's hand paused in the air, thinking better of it.
When he walked out from the west wing of the afternoon gate and saw Ning Jiu standing there motionlessly, Jia Tong was a little agitated. He would stretch his neck out to look in his direction from time to time, but when he saw, he immediately welcomed him.
Morong Gan was shocked, "Who let you go?"
"The decree that has come from the palace follows the dictum of the Imperial Consort Bai. It says that it is the grace of the Emperor."
Hearing that, Morong Gan turned and walked back into the room. Didn't he return the Green Peacock back?
Although he was a clan prince, it was inconvenient for him to enter the harem, so he could only go find the Emperor.
The emperor was not surprised to see him return. He smiled and asked, "Is there anything important that you have yet to say?"
Morong Gan saw the amusement in the emperor's eyes and bowed: "Royal Brother, you know that Mother Noble Consort has accepted Princess Chu into the palace right?"
"I know, it was I who gave you my permission. I wanted to tell you just now that you left in a hurry and disappeared." The emperor slowly drank his tea. "What, are you afraid that the Noble Consort will bully the Princess Chu?"
"When I was at home, my imperial concubine and my Noble Consort were not on good terms. My younger brother feared that she would offend my Noble Consort."
Third Brother does not need to worry, although the princess is young, she is married and knows how to be sensible. The Noble Consort is the big sister, she used to be amicable at home, but now that we have entered the palace, it is very rare to see her family.
He raised his head and glanced at Morong Gan. "Whatever, if you're not at ease, then we'll go with you and see if your wangfei is alright after all."
Morong Gan laughed along with him: "Royal Brother is joking, it's true that the wangfei doesn't have a fixed personality and doesn't understand the rules. I, your brother, am thinking about finding a mama to teach her the rules."
As they talked, the two of them left the room, sat down on a chair, and headed for the harem.
As Morong Gan leaned on his seat, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. He wondered how Bai Qianfan was doing by herself in the Rui Fu Palace. The little girl was crying so hard that she looked like she was about to cry. She struggled so much that the servants were pressing down on her, fiercely stabbing needles into her body.
When he thought of this, his heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but let out a long breath. When he saw the roof of the Rayford Palace from afar, he wanted to run over immediately.
When they reached the Thunder Palace, the emperor did not allow anyone to go in to report. He smiled and said to Morong Gan: "Let's quietly go in and see what they are doing."
Morong Gan also had the same intention, he walked out immediately and entered the door, it was very lively, the Queen was also present, the three of them sat around the table and drank Guo Lu.
Bai Qianfan shook her head while holding out the cup, asking for more fruit dew, "Don't be stingy, give me another cup."
The queen laughed. "There are kumquats here, and you'll get drunk if you drink too much."
Imperial Consort Bai looked up and saw that the emperor and Prince Chu had entered. She hurriedly stood up and bowed, and only then did everyone in the room know that the emperor and Prince Chu had arrived.
The Emperor was in a good mood. "All of you, get up. There's no need to be nervous."
The Prince Chu bowed to the Empress and the Noble Consort, then retreated to the side. Bai Qianfan was initially very open-minded, but when she saw the emperor, she cowered and quietly walked towards Morong Gan with the jade cup in hand. When no one was looking, he placed the cup in's hands and whispered, "Your highness, this is really nice to drink."
Morong Gan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The little girl looked like he had gotten some good stuff to share with him, he wanted to take her kindness, but since the Emperor was right in front of him, he could only grunt in acknowledgement and put on a casual look.
The emperor sat down and called out to everyone, "You all sit down as well. What are you all talking about? I've come, and I've spoiled your mood."
The Imperial Consort Bai laughed, "Your majesty, we are in the Pineapple Dew, the Empress has brought a little more, it tastes pretty good, the Princess Chu especially likes it to drink."
Only then did the emperor set his gaze on Bai Qianfan's face, with a face the size of a palm, a pair of pitch-black eyes, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, as though he was smiling, his expression slightly lightened, but even more so, his eyes seemed to be filled with intelligence. This kind of girl, she did not seem to be scheming, but who knew, in the end, she was Bai Rubing's daughter.
In fact, he had never understood why Bai Rubing would pick such a little girl to marry into the Prince Chu Palace. Was it because he purposely insulted the Prince Chu, or was it because the rumors were spreading, that he wanted to use the little girl as bait and take down the Prince Chu. No matter how he looked at it, he was still a victim.
However, this little girl was extremely quick-witted and was not annoying. He asked her in an amiable tone, "Is this the second time that Princess Chu has entered the palace?"
Bai Qianfan was about to go down to pay her respects when the emperor waved her hand: "Speak from where you sit, there is no need to be so formal.
The emperor lazily leaned against the bed, but he did not look as dignified as when he was sitting on the Dragon Throne.
"Yes, I came last time for the Spring Festival Gala. This is the second time."
"Yes, Noble Consort is lonely in the palace. From now on, you two sisters can often get to know each other and interact with each other."
Bai Qianfan was unwilling to answer him, she blinked her eyes and said: "The palace is too big, I'm afraid I'll get lost. I don't understand the rules, so it's not good for me to come over and scratch my sister. "
The emperor was stunned for a moment. She really doesn't know the rules. When she speaks to him, she just calls me by my name.
Morong Gan hurriedly changed the topic: "How is this Fruit Dew easy to do? Go back and ask the servant girls to try it out."
The empress laughed. "It's hard to say, but it's hard to say either. You just have to be patient and wait for the fermentation to turn sour. There's enough time, so the nectar will taste good." "Wangfei likes it. When we get back, I'll get someone to send some to the mansion. I have a lot, no matter what."
Bai Qianfan hurriedly turned around and expressed her gratitude, "Thank you, Empress. When I have something good to eat in the future, I will bring it over for Empress to have a taste."
The empress found this funny. "I'm not asking you to come to the palace often, but to visit me occasionally. Our sister-in-law wants to talk, so it's good to relieve the boredom."
Bai Qianfan agreed this time, "Alright, next time I'll bring delicious food to see the Empress."
The Imperial Consort Bai interjected, "Does Consort Wang know what Empress likes to eat?"
Bai Qianfan said, "Elder sister, quickly tell me, I want to make preparations."
The emperor's eyes drooped as he heard Imperial Consort Bai say, "Empress likes fruits and fruits, as well as fresh fruits, grapes and apricots …"
Bai Qianfan exclaimed, "Does the Empress like grapes? "There are vines planted in the manor, and when the fruits are planted, Thousand Sail will bring it in for the Empress to taste."
The Imperial Consort Bai glanced at her, "Ordinary grape like Empress s are not allowed to eat it, it's like spitting on a horse …"
Morong Gan's heart tensed up, he pretended to turn his face to cough, but Bai Qianfan still said it out loud, "I ate the horse milk grape yesterday, it was really tasty."
