It doesn’t matter, my boyfriend is a eunuch!

Why did the eldest prince suddenly come back? This is a question worth pondering.

It would be fine if it was done openly, but the main thing is that it was done secretly. Who wouldn't think too much?

Lin Zhihe looked at the Fifth Prince's face, expecting to get some useful information from him.

"I don't know, son." The fifth prince shook his head.

...

The melon that was about to be eaten was gone again, and Lin Zhihe was a little disappointed.

"What if, as the people in the palace say, he's out of money?" Lin Zhihe took the initiative to provide clues.

"Son, I really don't know." The fifth prince's face was wrinkled and his brows were tightly knitted.

Seeing the Fifth Prince like this, Lin Zhihe felt a little guilty. The child obviously didn't know, but she kept asking him questions.

"Alright, alright. We'll know why when he arrives in Kyoto. It's not worth it to waste our time and energy guessing here."

"Yes, my son listens to mother."

"Okay, then let's go if there's nothing else." Lin Zhihe waved his robe and asked Liu Li to see him off.

"Mother, please prepare well for the enthronement ceremony in three days!" The Fifth Prince suddenly looked at her earnestly.

Hmm? Was she so careless that Xiaowu could see it?

"Okay, okay, okay, okay, okok" Lin Zhihe muttered a series of words and asked the Fifth Prince, who was nagging, to leave.

She found that the fifth prince was a little like a little Tang monk, who usually stood on the moral high ground and chanted sutras to you. But you couldn't do anything to him because he was really strict with himself.

People who are strict with themselves should be lenient with others. Why is he nagging like that?

Lin Zhihe rubbed his head and decided to go back to his room to eat.

Ever since the news of her being named Imperial Concubine spread, the Imperial Kitchen has been trying their best to curry favor with her.

The meal was ordered to the maximum extent, which was completely the treatment of a royal concubine. There were twelve hot dishes, four cold dishes, two soups and two desserts.

Looking at the hot food on the table, Lin Zhihe's saliva was about to drip. This was simply a state banquet!

Money and status are external things. It doesn't matter if she can touch them or not. But this delicious meal is real. If she can eat it, she will earn money!

It's delicious!

Lin Zhihe gobbled the food voraciously. Liu Li was stunned watching from the side. She didn't stop eating and quickly served her a small bowl of soup. "Master, wait a minute. You can't eat so fast even if you are hungry."

She's not hungry, she's just greedy.

Seeing that Liu Li was about to snatch her chopsticks, she finally slowed down to give herself and Liu Li a chance to catch her breath.

Oh my God, so this is the true level of the imperial kitchen. What about what she ate before?

Just a cafeteria.

Since the day of being conferred the title of Imperial Concubine was too close, there was no time to prepare anything.

There was definitely no time to make a normal dress for a royal concubine. It just so happened that the Imperial Household Department had a semi-finished product, which they had made for Royal Concubine Xi before. But Royal Concubine Xi went to Wuyang Mountain before it was finished, so the dress was put at the bottom of the box.

Someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came over and respectfully measured Lin Zhihe's size, then tremblingly told him the plan.

As expected, Liu Li affirmed.

Under the scorching sun, his whole body became cold and gloomy, emitting cold air.

Today, Liu Li is a second-rank eunuch wearing a scarlet official robe with a crane embroidered with gold thread on his chest, which makes his cold face look particularly gloomy and his whole appearance looks particularly fierce.

The people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs were the most aware of current events. They were so scared that they knelt down and begged for mercy: "Master Liu, it's not that I'm lazy. I definitely can't make a new imperial concubine's dress in three days. Let alone one, even for half a dress, we servants have to work for three days and three nights, otherwise it won't be finished!"

"Then why do you have to use Concubine Xi's clothes? Are there no other concubines' clothes that can be used?"

The servants of the Ministry of Internal Affairs had a bitter face again, but they did not dare to complain, "Eunuch Liu, the imperial concubine's clothing is complicated, and the clothes of the ladies in other palaces cannot be used. Only the two ladies can use them, but these two ladies have not made clothes recently."

The young eunuch looked up at Liu Li, then knelt down at Lin Zhihe's feet and began to cry, "Your Majesty, it's not that we are lazy, we really have no other choice."

After saying that, he kowtowed repeatedly on the ground.

"Okay, okay!" Lin Zhihe quickly called a halt.

She winked at Liu Li, asking him to let the matter go.

After all, making a brand new piece of clothing within three days is something that even modern technology cannot do, let alone ancient technology?

Besides, she didn't really care about this nonsense of being a princess, so it didn't matter.

Liu Li looked very reluctant, but because of Lin Zhihe, she reluctantly spoke, her tone still cold, "Get up, my master is kind-hearted, I will let you go this time."

The young eunuch immediately laughed when he heard this, and began to flatter Lin Zhihe, "The Royal Concubine has a kind heart and sympathizes with us servants. It is a blessing for us servants. The Royal Concubine has been so kind to us..."

“Alright, alright, alright.” Lin Zhihe really couldn’t stand this kind of praise and interrupted him directly.

Liu Li was also annoyed. "If there's nothing else, go back and make clothes. If you make a mistake, I won't forgive you."

The young eunuch shook his shoulders subconsciously, looked at Liu Li tremblingly, nodded repeatedly, and crawled out of the bedroom.

"Okay, don't be angry anymore." Lin Zhihe started to coax Liu Li again.

"I don't care about these things. It's okay." Lin Zhihe began to smooth Liu Li's hair.

"Whether the master cares or not is one thing, but what the Ministry of Internal Affairs should do is another. How can we let the master pick up Concubine Xi's old clothes and pass them on..." Liu Li muttered.

"It's not old, it's not half done, then it's new!"

"But compared to this, I am more surprised that Concubine Li and the Queen did not make new clothes this year? Is he lying to us?"

Liu Li frowned, "Master, why are you suddenly curious about this?"

Lin Zhihe sat next to Liu Li, looking at his dark pupils against the light, in which her own appearance was reflected.

"Don't you find it strange? In the harem, the two ladies don't make new clothes. Isn't this abnormal?"

An ordinary female college student like her would go to Pinduoduo to buy a few clothes when the season changes, so why doesn’t the imperial concubine make any clothes?

"The Queen is a thrifty person. She often does not wear pearl hairpins but velvet flower jewelry. It is not surprising that she does not make new clothes."

Liu Li paused for a moment, then stood up and walked around Lin Zhihe. "Concubine Li is extremely extravagant. It is indeed unreasonable for her not to make new clothes."

Lin Zhihe snapped his fingers and looked at Liu Li.

"I'll go check it out right now."

It didn't take long before Liu Li returned again with a wooden face and no expression could be described.

"How is it?" As soon as he stepped into the bedroom, Lin Zhihe began to question him, wishing she could stick her eyes on him.

"I asked someone and found out that Concubine Li really didn't make new clothes this summer."

What? This result surprised Lin Zhihe.

Concubine Li is flamboyant and usually acts like she is second only to the emperor. But she doesn't even make new clothes for the summer?

This was so abnormal that Lin Zhihe vaguely smelled the scent of a shocking melon.

"It's not just clothes. Concubine Li doesn't even have jewelry made. You have to know that in previous years, Concubine Li had to make eight new sets of jewelry every year. The Ministry of Internal Affairs was overwhelmed just dealing with Concubine Li."

Ok?

When the two people looked at each other, they saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

What exactly is going on?
