"Reporting to Grandfather, the Nineteenth Uncle said that the braised lion head is not as delicious as the one made by the chef from Yanguo." Zhou Lingxiao rushed to tell.

"Xiao'er, stop talking nonsense." The eldest prince Zhou Jian, who was sitting at another table, quickly scolded in a low voice.

Zhou Lingxiao was scolded, and lowered her head in grievance, her eyes were red. "Big brother, why are you scolding Xiao'er? She didn't say anything nonsense, and neither did I. Not only this braised lion's head, but also this and this. These are indeed not as delicious as those made by the First Lady's chef. If you don't believe me, ask the Eleventh Sister." Xun Qing stood up and pointed at the dishes on the table. "Qing'er." Concubine Yu also quickly scolded her son. She stood up and said to Zhou Hong, "Your Majesty, it was my fault for not teaching well." The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense.

The children who were eating carefully put down their food and looked at Zhou Hong nervously.

"What are you doing? They didn't say anything outrageous. Is it necessary to be so harsh? In your eyes, is Amine someone who can't tolerate the casual words of his own son and granddaughter?" Zhou Hong's face darkened. He looked at Zhou Jian and then at Concubine Yu. "I know I was wrong."

"I know I was wrong." Zhou Jian and Yu Guiru hurriedly admitted their mistakes on the road.

Everyone else looked at the queen nervously. In this situation, she was probably the only one who could speak.

Shangguan Xia glanced at His Majesty, but she was not nervous, but smiled; "Alright, alright, you two should get up quickly, it's no wonder His Majesty is angry, today is a good day for our family to reunite, don't scare them." Zhou Jian and Concubine Yu did not get up, but looked at Zhou Hong nervously. "Hurry up and get up." Zhou Hong also realized that he had just lost his composure.

Zhou Jian and the other two then quickly stood up and sat back in their original seats.

Although the emperor spoke up and did not blame anyone, the atmosphere in the palace was still not as warm as it was at the beginning.

These children who had just returned from Yeonggu became very cautious when eating, and no one spoke.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Zhou Hong suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

He suddenly realized that he actually liked the atmosphere at the beginning, with his children and grandchildren all around him, and the children chatting and laughing casually.

I have never felt this way before. "Little Nineteen, Father thinks what you just said is true. You don't know that after your ninth brother came back, he stayed with the Yan people all day and had three meals a day there. Oh, he even brought back some food for your mother to taste.

Queen, what’s the name of the dish that Xiaojiu brought back? It’s the black-looking duck that you said was delicious after eating it. "Zhou Hong spoke again.

"Father, it's dried duck, right?" Xun Qing responded excitedly.

Zhou Hong nodded; "Yes, it seems to be called this, but unfortunately, Father, I didn't eat it because the dish didn't look good."

"Yes, yes, it does not look good, but it smells very good. Your Majesty, you must regret not having the chance to taste it, right?" Xun Qing became interested as he started chatting with his father, and even forgot what had just happened.

"Yes, that's right." Zhou Hong shook his head regretfully, picked up the wine and salt in front of him and said

Shangguan Xia smiled and nodded, her eyes suddenly felt hot and her nose felt sore.

Once upon a time, when she left the palace, she also envied the life of ordinary people.

Although we are poor, we are so happy and cheerful.

"Empress, when you write to Xiaojiu, ask him to secretly learn a few dishes from the first-rank lady's cook, and cook them to honor you and me when he comes back." Zhou Hong turned around and saw his wife's expression. He picked up some dishes for her while chatting with her.

"Xuan, I'll remember it." Shangguan Xia also responded with a smile, trying hard to hold back her tears.

At this moment, Shangguan Xia suddenly felt that this incident in Xixiangzha would not be a bad thing if so many soldiers and innocent civilians had not been killed or injured.

The emperor husband has changed. He is no longer the king who only cares about state affairs and the country.

He was her husband, the children's father, and grandfather. Because of Zhou Hong, the atmosphere in the palace quickly returned to the way it was at the beginning. It was even more casual than at the beginning. The chirping of the children seemed to be the most beautiful sound in the world.

Zhou Jian and several other adult princes, prince consorts, and princesses and their husbands shared the same sentiment as Shangguan Xia.

They were originally very worried that their father would become angry because of the affairs of Wu Yu Kingdom.

Unexpectedly, it was not like that.

At this time, Lian'er, who was sleeping in Jiaxi's arms, woke up and was quickly taken aside to change her diaper.

The third imperial concubine stepped forward to take it, and carried it to the cubicle to feed the baby, but then she heard the baby crying.

"Go and see what's going on. There's no milk. Where's the wet nurse?" Shangguan Xia said to the third prince.

The third prince Zhou Zhi hurried over to check and soon returned. "Reporting to the Queen Mother, there is milk, but Lian'er is very resistant. It should be because she has been drinking goat's milk for a while and is used to it. I have already ordered someone to boil the goat's milk."

But at the same time, I felt relieved, but I also felt sorry for my little grandson, who had suffered so much at such a young age.

Fortunately, Yao met that first-rank lady, otherwise, I really don’t dare to imagine what would happen to the child.

"Don't think about it, it's all over." Zhou Hong sensed something was wrong with the queen and reached out to gently pat her arm.

Shangguan Xia smiled and nodded; "Your Majesty is right, it's all in the past, from now on, Xiang will be fine"

After lunch, everyone went back home.

Zhou Hong did not go to court either, but sat in his study in a daze.

Eunuch Chen was about to go in with the tea, but Shangguan Xia waved her hand and signaled him not to go in.

The children all returned safely, and Shangguan Xia was no longer as anxious as before. When the First-Rank Lady left, she once said that some things should be done slowly and not in a hurry.

In Qucheng on the border of Yan State, Mu Yingbao felt relieved after hearing that Xun Fei's children had been safely sent back to Xixiang Palace.

After making a decision with Xue Wenyu, we set off the next day.

Xue Wenyu had already planned the route for this trip, and someone was busy preparing for the trip. Xue Wenyu coaxed his wife to sleep early, then left the room and looked towards the room where Wen Xiaowu lived.

"Master, you haven't rested yet." Wen Xiaowu just walked out of the room and greeted him.

Look at the room.

"Master, you haven't rested yet." Wen Xiaowu just walked out of the room, said hello and was about to go out.

"It's so late, why are you still going out?" Xue Wenyu saw the boy walking out, and in order not to wake up his wife, he chased after him and asked.

"Well, it's like this. Aren't we leaving tomorrow? The weather is getting colder and colder. I'm afraid Madam may not have enough charcoal, so I'll go buy some more." Wen Xiaowu said, and left.

Xue Wenyu stood there, watching the figure disappearing into the night, and laughed in his heart.

Do you really think that he, the Duke, is a hands-off boss? I wonder if all the top-quality fruit charcoal in Qucheng has been bought up in the past few days, filling up two large carts.

Using such an excuse to shake the plug...
