Chapter 1048 Waiting for the letter while having dinner
Xiao Jingyu laughed when he heard Leng Rongyue's words, "That's right! How could I forget? The speed inside Yue'er's space is different from the outside!"
"In that case, Jingyu will take his leave!"
Xiao Jingyu looked at Duke Anguo, Fu Peng, his son, and Fu Mingjun, "Duke, the two Fus and your elder brother did not go out last night, but you must have stayed up all night in the mansion!"
"You should all go and take a nap!"
Master Fu Yinglan stood up right after his father, "Let's listen to Father and His Highness Prince Yu, and go get some sleep for now!"
Tonight, Yue'er and His Highness Prince Yu are out on business. How can we possibly sleep peacefully at home?
Fortunately, it doesn't matter whether I sleep tonight or not, since I have a day off tomorrow and don't need to rush to the morning court!
"Have a rest tomorrow?
"No need to attend the morning court session?"
Leng Rongyue was a little puzzled. "Grandpa, Uncle, tomorrow... isn't a day off, is it?"
Leng Rongyue looked at her maternal grandfather and two uncles, then at Prince Yu, Xiao Jingyu.
Xiao Jingyu looked slightly embarrassed.
"Moon, it's like this, tomorrow wasn't originally a day off."
However, it's because... because Father... he..."
"What's wrong with the Emperor?"
Is something the matter?
Leng Rongyue asked Xiao Jingyu with a puzzled look.
It was only when the court session ended today that Emperor Hongde mentioned that tomorrow would be a day off, and that the morning court session would be waived.
They thought that the Emperor might be upset about the murder of Zhang Jinyan's family and wanted a day of peace and quiet to recover.
Looking at the expression on Prince Yu Xiao Jingyu's face, a thought suddenly occurred to her: Could it be... that His Majesty is eyeing the treasure in Leng Rongyue's space?
Yue'er did indeed say that they could find a day to go to the mountains and show the Emperor the power of those treasures.
Could it be that the Emperor is thinking about this and has this in mind?
Duke Anguo, Fu Peng, had an idea and asked about his guess.
"Your Highness Prince Yu, His Majesty has decided to suspend the morning court session for a day. Could it be that he intends to..."
Before Duke Anguo Fu Peng could finish speaking, he raised his finger and pointed at Leng Rongyue.
Upon seeing this, Leng Rongyue thought for a moment and immediately understood!
Even the eldest master Fu Yinglan, the second master Fu Yingze, and the eldest son Fu Mingjun understood the implication...
So, the Emperor really was after the treasures in Yue'er's space!
Since she knew that the Emperor was concerned about this matter and had even excused the morning court session tomorrow, what else could Leng Rongyue say? She could just go into the mountains!
Leng Rongyue looked at Xiao Jingyu, "Your Highness Prince Yu, since the Emperor is so eager to see the power of those weapons as soon as possible, let's set it for tomorrow!"
The day after tomorrow, His Highness Prince Yu's men will be making moves at the Wangdong Restaurant;
The Emperor ordered the Prince Yi's residence to collect the bodies of Zhang Jinyan's family the day after tomorrow.
In a few days, delegations from various countries will arrive in the capital one after another, and the entire court will be busy with preparations for the Emperor's birthday.
"Nothing planned for tomorrow, perfect!"
Hearing Leng Rongyue say this, Xiao Jingyu felt relieved.
Xiao Jingyu clasped his hands in a fist and bowed deeply to Leng Rongyue with a smile.
"In that case, I thank Yue'er on behalf of my father!"
"Is Your Highness trying to humiliate me?"
Leng Rongyue said with a slight reproach.
"How dare you!"
Xiao Jingyu bowed repeatedly, which made Leng Rongyue burst out laughing!
Upon hearing the sweet interaction between the young couple, the Duke of Anguo and his son, along with Fu Mingjun, all turned away, indicating that they could neither hear nor see the sweet interaction.
The group from the Duke of Anguo's mansion walked out of the flower hall, chatting and laughing.
Duke Anguo, Fu Peng, and his son went towards the inner hall;
Leng Rongyue then led the group in green back to the embroidery tower;
Xiao Jingyu, accompanied by Fu Mingjun, went to the guest courtyard that had been specially prepared for him.
Sui Feng, Ling Bo, and Ta Yun were also arranged to rest in this guest courtyard.
Fu Mingjun escorted Xiao Jingyu to the courtyard gate and then left.
Xiao Jingyu walked into the main hall, sat down at the desk in the east room, ground ink, laid out paper, picked up a brush, and wrote a short letter to his father, the Emperor!
Put the letter paper into the envelope and seal it.
Xiao Jingyu snapped his fingers, and a black figure instantly appeared in front of the desk.
"Send this letter to the Emperor in the palace!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The man in black took the letter and put it in his pocket, then disappeared in the blink of an eye.
In the Phoenix Palace.
As Emperor Hongde reviewed the memorials, he would occasionally glance outside the hall...
My son hasn't contacted me yet. Has he not mentioned it to Yue'er?
Did Yue'er not agree?
So tomorrow...
It wasn't until dinner time that Emperor Hongde was pulled to the table by Empress Luan Xiying to have dinner.
Leng Rongyue had taken the time to write down the recipes for more than a dozen relatively simple and easy-to-make dishes, and also prepared a lot of seasonings that were not available here. Xiao Jingyu took them to the palace and gave them to the Imperial Kitchen.
At this moment, on the Emperor and Empress's dining table were several dishes that Leng Rongyue had taught the Imperial Kitchen to prepare.
Emperor Hongde and Empress Luan Xiying ate their meal while quietly commenting on their observations...
"This 'Hibiscus Chicken Slices' looks similar to Yue'er's, but it still has a faint fishy smell, and the texture isn't as smooth and tender as Yue'er's."
Empress Luan Xiying said with a hint of regret.
Emperor Hongde nodded in agreement, "It is indeed less than satisfactory!"
It seems that after my birthday celebrations, I'll have to bring Yue'er to the palace, or send the imperial chefs to the Duke of Anguo's residence so Yue'er can give them some proper guidance!
Empress Luan Xiying agreed wholeheartedly.
"Ah Ying, try this. This dish even has a bit of a moon-like feel to it!"
Emperor Hongde picked up a piece of Kung Pao Chicken and placed it in Empress Luan Xiying's bowl.
Luan Xiying took a bite, her eyes lighting up. "Hmm, this tastes a bit like what Yue'er made!"
As he spoke, he picked up a piece of chicken and gave it to Hong Dedi, then picked up another piece for himself.
Just as Emperor Hongde picked up a piece of chicken and put it in his mouth, Yu Feng strode in, holding an envelope in his hand.
