In Jincheng, passers-by hurried home after work in the evening. Ling Wuxin and his party entered the city in a low-key manner without attracting much attention. People thought it was a caravan entering the city. After all, such small caravans were common every day, and they had even seen larger caravans, so everyone went their own way and did not stop to disturb them too much.

Until such a convoy stopped in front of the palace, the main gate that had been closed all year round, the two red lacquered doors covered with copper nails, were slowly opening.

Accompanied by the sound of "thump thump thump...", it feels quite heavy.

Two rows of guards filed out and lined up neatly at the door. "Welcome back, Your Majesty!"

"Come in!" Ling Wuxin did not get off the carriage. He still held his child in the carriage and only let the coachman drive the carriage into the mansion.

The carriages rumbled into the palace gate one after another, and then the gate slowly closed with a thump.

Only those who were lucky enough to witness this process realized what they had just witnessed! The owner of the palace has returned! This news spread quietly among the crowd.

"finally reached!"

Ling Wuxin and Yiyi got off the carriage carrying Xinxin and Nian Nian, who had just woken up and were still a little dazed.

"Welcome back, master!" The guards inside the door lined up, knelt on one knee, and shouted in unison.

"Get up! Leave now. Finish inspecting the palace, and do the rest as usual." Ling Wuxin protected the confused child in his arms. He waved his hand and asked everyone to leave.

Not to mention the children, Yiyi was also confused, with a feeling of unreality. The feeling of being greeted by people kneeling down made her feel a little strange. She managed to hold on and not run away. Fortunately, her husband quickly drove them away.

"Huh!" Yiyi, Xinxin, and Nian Nian all let out a sigh of relief at the same time. Eh? It seems that they were all holding their breath just now. It was a little embarrassing, but fortunately only they knew about it.

"Brother, please take the wife and children in first! Xiao Ba and I will have people unload the luggage!" Xiao Qi came forward with his personal guards.

"Your Majesty, Princess, Young Master, please come in!" The butler of the palace was waiting respectfully at the side, and then he stepped forward to lead the way. Yiyi and Nian Nian in her arms stiffened at the same time when they heard the words. They were really not used to it. However, Yiyi did not force herself to speak out. In an unfamiliar environment, speaking less is a rule of survival.

"Lead the way, let someone prepare dinner!" Ling Wuxin led his wife and children back to the main hall. He asked all the servants to go down and get busy, and then he took off the cloaks and crowns for his wife and children, but he did not take off his mask.

"Treat this place as your own home, live however you want, and order them around if you need anything." Ling Wuxin said to Yiyi, Xinxin, and Nian Nian. Seeing them all standing ready, he couldn't help but laugh. How could they be so cute! Ling Wuxin couldn't help but remind them again, "Remember that you are the master!"

"They can only come in when I call them, right?" Yiyi still asked worriedly. She was really not used to having a group of male servants around her. It felt so awkward.

"Of course, no one here dares to cross the line. They are all people trained by the housekeeper for many years. Although I am not in the mansion, my status is still there!" Ling Wuxin comforted.

"Okay! Then I'll just use it for now! Xinxin, Nian Nian, you are still so young, you don't need to worry about the situation, just play freely, your dad will take care of the rest." Yiyi was comforted by Ling Wuxin, so she comforted her own children. The two children have been well-behaved since they came home, and they may need time to adapt.

"Mother is right, Xin Xin Nian Nian is the young master of the palace! No need to think too much!" Ling Wuxin stroked Xin Xin Nian Nian's hair lovingly and said in a gentle voice.

"Father~"

"Mother~"

Xinxin and Nian Nian obediently threw themselves into their parents' arms and rubbed against them like spoiled children.

"Hahaha, my son is so smart!" Ling Wuxin picked up Nian Nian and held her high up with satisfaction.

"Hehehe~" Nian Nian giggled happily, and Xinxin also giggled in her mother's arms.

The housekeeper of the palace looked at the loving father and filial son of the prince's family and did not dare to disturb them rashly. He led a group of male servants to stay outside the door. They all held trays in their hands, and each tray contained a dish.

"Dinner~" It was Nian Nian who reminded Ling Wuxin in the end.

"Come in and serve the meal!" Ling Wuxin ordered people to come in, and the male servants then lightly moved and brought the dishes to the table.

Six plates of seasonal fruits and candied fruits were placed on the table first, including fresh oranges, fresh apples, peach cakes, frosted date rings, pine nuts and raisins.

Six plates of cold dishes were then served, including cold lotus root, bean curd mixed with three shreds, braised pork slices, silver sprouts mixed with shredded chicken, and crispy fish skin.

There are six hot dishes, each of which is kept warm in a small clay oven.

. First course: Crispy pigeon belly soup

. Second course: Clam, tofu and fish soup

. Third course: Braised fresh pig’s trotter with chestnuts

. Fourth course: Steamed crab

. Fifth dish: Stir-fried mandarin duck belly with fresh lily bulbs.

Course 6: Fried Quail

……

"Master, dinner is ready, please enjoy!" The butler personally supervised the servants to put each dish on the table before turning around and inviting the master to come to the table to eat.

"Okay! The butler will ask someone to call the Seventh Young Master and the Eighth Young Master to come and have dinner together. After that, you can go down to eat on your own. There is no need to come in to serve without being summoned." Ling Wuxin nodded and spoke, then sent someone down.

"Yes, master!" The butler led a group of humble male servants and bowed and retreated.

"My lady, wash your hands and have dinner!" Ling Wuxin carried Nian Nian over to wash her hands. The basin of warm water was brought over by the male servant just now. It was supposed to be taken away after the master washed his hands, but in the end, the male servant dismissed everyone before he could serve them.

"Okay! The palace has so many rules that the dishes are divided into so many courses!" Yiyi complained. If she were to serve the dishes, she would just have a snack platter and a cold dish platter. If there was no way to serve the hot dishes, she would just have six courses as they were.

"Oh, there are many families with complicated rules and regulations. Mine has been simplified again and again! No need to worry about it, just eat!" Ling Wuxin implied that his royal brothers had such a pomp and circumstance, they wished they could be like local emperors.

"That's better. If there are more rules, I can't eat." Yiyi imagined herself eating, with someone standing beside her to serve her. One person eating while the other watched. This is so against human nature. If you meet a narrow-minded person, you will be secretly retaliated every minute. The servants must have eaten a lot of saliva. Eh? I can't think about it. If I think about it again, I really can't eat.

"Brother! Madam! We have put all the luggage and belongings back in place, and the room has been decorated!" Xiaoqi and Xiaoba came over in big strides.

"Okay! Let's eat first and talk about the rest later!" Ling Wuxin said, Yiyi nodded, spend the night first and make plans tomorrow. It's better to take the children to get familiar with the palace as soon as possible, so that they can take time to go shopping later.

"Xinxin, Niannian, drink pigeon soup, it will strengthen your spleen and stomach and help you grow taller." Yiyi didn't think any more. She personally served pigeon soup to her children, picked out pigeon legs, shredded them and fed them to the children.

"Drink~" The little guy sat obediently on his parents' laps, nodded, and waited to be fed.

"The food in the palace is as delicious as always!" Xiao Qi nodded, explaining that he had eaten a lot of it with the eldest brother in the past. Also, since they grew up together, eating and living together was essential.

"It seems like you have gained some experience with this kind of diet!" Yiyi understood when she saw that the men were used to this kind of meals.

However, there is still a big difference between the food in the village and the food in the village. One is more about show and refinement, while the other is more about delicious taste. Since the sisters arrived, the food they have eaten is no different from the modern cooking methods. If there is a difference, it is the freshness of the ingredients and the number of seasonings.

Yiyi thought about it this way, and it was really rare that her man could adapt well and didn't behave picky in any way on weekdays.
