The queen has four sons and six daughters, and she can call the wind and rain

Yun Zhining uses spiritual spring water to cook porridge. The spiritual spring water soaks the white rice, bringing out the fragrance of the rice and adding a slight sweetness, so it doesn't taste so bland. The cabbage is grown on the donated land and watered with spiritual spring water. It grows overnight. When you pick it the next morning, it's very juicy. You just need to stir-fry it with some cooking oil. No extra seasoning is needed. It is simply the perfect companion to the porridge.

The more Qi Yejing ate, the more delicious he found the porridge. The more delicious it tasted, the more he ate. He originally only had a medium bowl of porridge in the morning, but this morning he drank two large bowls in a row and also finished all the vegetables and peanuts that Yun Zhining brought.

He touched his stomach, let out a long sigh, and felt his body was much more relaxed. He could now review 500 memorials in a row.

"A Ning's cooking skills seem to be even better than last night."

Yun Zhining was surprised and quickly explained.

"Your Majesty must be in a good mood today, so you think the breakfast I made this morning is better than the dinner I made last night. I would like to congratulate Your Majesty on achieving his wish."

Qi Yejing laughed.

"How do you know I'm in a good mood today?"

"Was it that obvious?"

"It's not very obvious, but I was rude just now, but the emperor didn't blame me, so I guess something good must have happened in the court today. The emperor is in a good mood at the moment, so he won't bother with me."

"You are such a clever little fellow."

Qi Yejing waved his hand, and the palace maid packed up all the dishes and put them into the food box. He picked up the tea, took a sip, and said with a smile.

"When I was in court today, the Minister of Revenue told me that the taxes collected by Jiangdong, Jiangxi, Jiangnan and Jiangbei this year have increased by 30% compared to last year, which is a huge sum of money. With this money, all the plans I made before can be smoothly implemented. Once these plans are all implemented, the strength of our Daye will be greatly increased. Within ten years, I guarantee that no country will dare to have bad intentions towards us."

"Really? Then I would like to congratulate the emperor even more."

"God bless, I hope the emperor's plan can go smoothly, I hope our Daye will become a powerful country, no country will dare to covet our Daye territory, invade our Daye borders, and bully our Daye people. I hope that the people can live and work in peace and contentment under the protection of the emperor, live happily until old age, and live a life without illness and disaster."

Yun Zhining's words really touched Qi Yejing's heart. Qi Yejing was only interested in her appearance at first, but now he was interested in her as a person.

Yun Changzai, how many surprises do you have that I don’t know about?

The emperor was very pleased and was generous to his subordinates.

"It's a rare opportunity that you bump into me today. It's a blessing. I will reward you with something."

"Tell me, what do you want?"

Yun Zhining pinched her fingers and said tentatively.

"Whatever I want, Your Majesty will give it to me?"

"Of course, once I speak, I will not regret it."

As long as it is not excessive, even if it is to be on the same level as Concubine Sun, I will agree.

So, are you going to make this request?

Of course Yun Zhining would not be so stupid. As long as she could hold Qi Yejing's heart, promotion was only a matter of time. There was no need to be so anxious.

Besides, she did not enter the palace through the normal selection, and she is Yun Fulan's biological sister. Everyone in the harem is staring at her, waiting to find her making mistakes. It is better for her to keep a low profile for a while. When the time is right, Qi Yejing will naturally promote her. By then, even if the empress dowagers of the east and west palaces know about it, they will not be able to refuse.

"Aning, Aning, ..."

"I am here."

"Have you decided what you want?"

"Think about it."

Yun Zhining coughed lightly and spoke slowly.

"I dare to ask the emperor to reward me with one thousand taels of silver."

"Okay, Dong Ling, immediately issue an order to promote Yun Changzai to..."

Wait, something seems wrong?

Qi Yejing was stunned for a moment before he understood Yun Zhining's request.

"Your request is one thousand taels of silver?"

Oh, is that too much?

"Then, five hundred taels is ok?"

"If that doesn't work, two hundred taels will do."

"Otherwise, one hundred taels is no problem."

Yun Zhining felt more and more guilty as she spoke, and her voice gradually became lower.

Qi Yejing glared at her, feeling both angry and amused.

"You think this is a vegetable market? You're actually bargaining with me."

Concubine Sun’s eyes lit up.

Is the emperor angry?

Well, I didn’t expect Yun Zhining to get into trouble so soon.

Quickly, Your Majesty, issue an order to banish her to the cold palace and let her accompany her sister Yun Fulan.

Concubine Sun was happily imagining that Qi Yejing would banish Yun Zhining to the cold palace in a rage, and she would never be able to turn over a new leaf in her life, when she heard Qi Yejing speak.

"I have never seen anyone more stupid than you in my life. You give up a good position and insist on having some yellow and white things."

"Well, since you like silver so much, I will reward you with one thousand taels of silver."

Yun Zhining originally thought that the money was lost, but unexpectedly there was a light at the end of the tunnel. She was immediately happy and quickly knelt down to express her gratitude.

"I thank the emperor for his grace. Long live the emperor."

"Isn't it just one thousand taels of silver? Why are you so happy?"

Yun Zhining rubbed her hands and chuckled.

"Your Majesty is the master of the world. One thousand taels of silver is a drop in the ocean for you, but for me, one thousand taels of silver is a huge sum of money."

"With this huge sum of money, I can buy a lot of dishes from the imperial kitchen. I can make Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea to Disturb the Arhat, Taishi Five Snake Soup, Braised Shark's Fin, Bamboo Fungus Liver Paste Soup, etc. for the emperor to enjoy."

Qi Yejing sneered.

"Come on, just keep bragging. I don't believe you can cook such a skillful dish."

"If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, then I'll make a bet with you. If I can't do it, I'll let Your Majesty deal with me. But if I do, Your Majesty will reward me with another 1,000 taels of silver. Okay?"

"It really takes a lot of money to buy these ingredients. I also have to take care of the people in the imperial kitchen to prevent them from sending me substandard dishes, which would affect the taste. Is that okay, Your Majesty?"

Seeing the charming girl pulling his sleeve and shaking him gently, Qi Yejing suddenly thought of the pure white, coquettish cat raised by the eldest princess.

It’s not too much for such a cute cat to act coquettishly occasionally and ask for something that is easily available to him.

"Okay, I agree."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Lady Sun on the side: ...

She felt as if she shouldn't be here, and there was a faint light above her head.
