The Journey of Immortality of the Peerless Medical Concubine

Seeing the old man laughing so happily, Wen Liuli couldn't help but feel happy too.

Why did she let Tang Tianling come to play chess with her? Wasn't it just to make the old man happy?

Otherwise, she could just ask the old man to accompany her.

The fact was just as she expected. The old man was in a very good mood. Wen Liuli not only helped him vent his anger, but also made him discover a new world.

There will be fun again in the future.

Just this simple game of Gobang is enough for him to play for half a month.

Next, Tang Tianling played a few more games with Wen Liuli. No matter what kind of formation he wanted to use, Wen Liuli could always come up with some strange ways to deal with him.

There is no doubt that Tang Tianling never won a single game. Fortunately, he did not ask for any jackpot when playing chess with Wen Liuli, otherwise he might have lost even his pants today.

While they were happy, time quickly came to noon. The imperial kitchen had already served the sumptuous meal, and Wen Liuli took out a box of small things from somewhere and placed it on the table.

"what is this?"

Seeing the food box that Wen Liuli brought up, Tang Tianling and Tang Zonglun both had question marks on their faces.

It's not like there's no food here, why did you bring food with you?

Only Tang Tianyu knew what was in the box. Wasn’t it the mooncake that Wen Liuli had spent a long time researching?

Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, so Wen Liuli would not come to the palace empty-handed, so she prepared this box of mooncakes.

"Today is Mid-Autumn Festival. In my hometown, Mid-Autumn Festival is a day for family reunion. Every household will prepare a box of mooncakes to celebrate."

In fact, the reason why this thing is called mooncake is because Mid-Autumn Festival is the night of the full moon. The ancient Chinese people usually took it out and ate it while appreciating the moon, so it is called mooncake.

Wen Liuli was a foodie, so it was already a good thing that she could bring this thing into the palace intact, let alone wait until night to eat it.

"Mooncakes? Snacks?"

"I guess so. Grandpa Huang, please try it."

As he spoke, Wen Liuli took out the prepared mooncakes from the food box.

"Here we have egg yolk filling, five-nut filling, Yunnan ham filling, and red bean paste filling. What flavor would you like, Grandpa Huang?"

"Oh? This thing has stuffing?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Zongluan and Tang Tianling immediately became interested. They reached out to take one out from the food box and took a bite without caring about the flavor.

"Ok?"

As they savored the aroma in their mouths, their eyes suddenly lit up. This thing tastes good!

Tang Tianling got a five-nut mooncake, while Tang Zongluan was lucky enough to get the Yuntui one.

“Is there any meat in this?”

Looking at the mooncake with a hole in it that he had bitten off, Tang Zongluan exclaimed in surprise. He had never seen anyone put meat into sweets.

I didn't expect it to have such a unique flavor.

"Haha, this is stuffed with ham specially supplied from the south, which I call Yuntiao. Grandpa Huang, please try this one with egg yolk."

As he spoke, Wen Liuli took out a mooncake with egg yolk filling and handed it to Tang Zongluan.

Upon learning that there was meat in Tang Zongluan's, Tang Tianling suddenly felt that the five-nut snack in his hand was not tasty anymore, and immediately wanted to reach out and take another one.

However, just as he was about to put his hand into the food box, a pair of chopsticks suddenly hit his hand, and he immediately retracted his hand in pain.

"You are really rude. Are you done with what you have in your hand? Just take it."

The owner of this pair of chopsticks is naturally Tang Zongluan, because he saw that there were only about ten mooncakes in the food box, which was not enough for me to eat alone, so why was this kid fighting with me for them?

Not sensible at all.

Hearing this, Tang Tianling felt like crying. Doesn't it taste delicious? I also want to try what that Yuntiao ham tastes like.

Speaking of this cloud leg, where did Wen Liuli get it? Tang Tianyu asked Tang Zhentian for it.

At first, she had no intention of making ham mooncakes. It was only after she heard that there was such a thing in the palace that she came up with the idea.

Since this thing was made of pork, people in the palace didn't think much of it. However, it was a special supply from the south and it would be a pity to throw it away, so it was kept in the imperial treasury and no one touched it.

It was also when Tang Tianyu accidentally heard Wen Liuli say that Yuntiao mooncakes were the most delicious that he remembered the existence of such a thing.

Unexpectedly, that thing would have a unique flavor when added to the mooncakes. Tang Tianyu ate a lot of it when it was just out of the oven. If he hadn't thought of offering this thing to his grandfather and father, it probably wouldn't have appeared in this food box.

On the other side, Tang Zhentian was still in the imperial study, looking at the food box in front of him with a puzzled look, wondering what the eunuch meant.

"Aren't there meals? Where did this lunch box come from?"

"Your Majesty, this food box was sent by Princess Wu through Xiao Dezi. She said it was some mooncake and she wanted to give it to Your Majesty to try."

Upon hearing this, Zhao She quickly bowed and replied.

"Did Ali send it? Quick! Bring it out so I can taste it!"

When Tang Zhentian heard that it was sent by Wen Liuli, his eyes suddenly lit up. Wen Liuli liked to make strange things, and he didn't know what this mooncake was.

When he opened the food box, what came into Tang Zhentian's eyes were a dozen flower-shaped mooncakes, and two words could be vaguely seen on each of them.

Five nuts, egg yolk, ham, sesame, bean paste, and date paste.

There are two of each type of mooncakes, and at first glance, the box seems full.

Tang Zhentian picked up the one with egg yolk filling and took a bite, and his body was shocked.

This thing is sweet on the surface, but the egg yolk in the middle is actually salty. The combination of these two flavors is so delicious!

There is no such thing as salted duck eggs in the world of immortality. Fortunately, Wen Liuli ordered people to pickle them early on, otherwise we might not be able to eat egg yolk mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

"What is this cloud leg?"

Tang Zhentian probably knew what other flavors were like, but this Yuntui was the first time he had heard of it. Could it be that there was a leg wrapped inside?

But what animal has such small legs?

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Wu took a ham from the imperial treasury some time ago, and I think he used it to wrap this."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Tang Zhentian also remembered that Tang Tianyu had indeed asked him for a pork leg some time ago. He felt it was strange at the time. Why did he want that thing? It looked black and moldy.

But now that Wen Liuli sent it here, I guess Wen Liuli knows how to eat it.

With a doubtful attitude, Tang Zhentian picked up a piece of Yuntiao mooncake and then took a bite.

"Ok?"

Smelling the unique taste of Yuntiao, Tang Zhentian's eyes suddenly lit up. That thing had been kept in the palace for several years and no one dared to eat it. He didn't expect it to taste like this.

"Zhao She! Leave one of each flavor of mooncakes for me, and send the rest to the Queen so she can have a taste too!"

"Then the Emperor..."

"Since Ali can think of me, she will definitely not forget her father. You don't have to worry about it."

"Yes!"

Thinking that Wen Liuli was in Shengqian Palace at this moment, Zhao She nodded quickly.

That’s true. Wen Liuli has gone to Shengqian Palace, so she must have prepared one for the emperor.

But what does this thing taste like? I really want to try it.

"Hmm? Your Majesty, there are words on the bottom of the box!"

Just as Zhao She was packing up the mooncakes, he suddenly took out a note from the bottom of the plate.

"Wherever the moonlight shines, the country and the family shine together! May you be safe and sound, and may the dragon be healthy!"

It was just a few simple words, but Tang Zhentian was fascinated by them.

He had heard thousands of blessings in his daily life, but this little note made Tang Zhentian feel a warmth he had never felt before.

On weekdays, whether it was his subjects or his children, the words they said to him were nothing but flattery.

But Wen Liuli is different, because Wen Liuli has no requests. What she writes is what she really thinks in her heart, not just nice words.

What does the emperor lack? Some people would say that the emperor lacks nothing, but he knows best what he really lacks.

The only thing I have never felt is family affection, even though I am in an imperial family.

Even my own children have never revealed any true feelings in front of me, not even Tang Tianyu, who usually seems to care about nothing.

……

In Shengqian Palace, almost all the delicacies sent by the imperial kitchen were eaten by Tang Tianyu and Wen Liuli. As for Tang Tianling and Tang Zonglun, they were full after eating mooncakes alone, so how could they have time to eat meals?

Looking at everyone who was extremely satisfied, Wen Liuli couldn't help but curl her lips.

I don’t know what my family is doing now, how is my grandma’s health, how are my brother and sister-in-law, and my parents…

For a moment, her mind was full of thoughts and she missed her hometown.

In fact, this place is not bad. There are brothers like Tang Tianling, Tang Tianyi, Tang Tianxing, sisters like Tang Linger, Lin Buyao, Li Qingyan, elders like Grandpa Emperor, His Majesty the East Emperor, and Tang Tianyu, the other half of his life.

Although these people can be considered relatives, this does not affect Wen Liuli's longing for her own family.

I really wish I could bring my family here to have a look. There is no noise, no pollution, and no traffic. My family used to think this place was dangerous and they were worried about whether I was living well here.

But now I just want to let them know that I am safe and that I am living well here.

But such a simple idea cannot be realized.

Noticing the change in Wen Liuli's expression, Tang Tianyu let out a long sigh.

Who doesn’t understand this truth that we miss our family more during the holidays?

If Wen Liuli's family is in the Changsheng Realm, Tang Tianyu can find a way to bring them over to reunite with Wen Liuli even if they are at the ends of the earth.

But they are not in this world at all. The only way to see her family is to enter the Gate of Changsheng.

But can you just enter the Changsheng Gate? Now you can only wait for your brother-in-law to deal with the matter over there.

Tang Tianyu also admires his elder brother-in-law from the bottom of his heart.

Fame, wealth and honor are just like floating clouds to him; gold, silver and treasures are just like dirt to him; the only thing he desires is the safety of his family.

Wen Gongliang is his lifelong friend and one of the few people Tang Tianyu admires.
