The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people

In the past, the kitchen of Yiku Palace would start to add mung bean soup at noon and dinner starting from May.

Now that Imperial Noble Consort Chen holds the Phoenix Seal, it is not appropriate for her to only give special treatment to the Yikun Palace.

The Xia Palace was different from the imperial palaces of those dynasties where people dared to offer ten taels of silver for an egg.

The ancestors of Daxia had a hard life. Before each emperor ascended the throne, he was entrusted with important tasks. They traveled all over the world and witnessed all kinds of human life.

Liang Zhan's political achievements before he ascended the throne were already very remarkable, and it can be said that he was the popular choice.

All kinds of food ingredients in the palace are directly supplied by the imperial farm, and are guarded and managed by special personnel. The prices are only slightly higher than those outside, which also allows the people below to make money.

Liang Zhan was diligent in his work and loved his people. The national treasury was full, so he could even expand the Xia Palace and add three palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two concubines, with some money left over.

"Your Majesty is kind-hearted. I will do it right away and will make sure your wishes are conveyed to you."

"Eunuch Li, send Father another bowl of deer pear juice to relieve the summer heat."

Liang Chongyue wiped her hands with a small handkerchief, and did not forget to ask Li Jin to go and win the favor of her scumbag father.

"I obey your command and will deliver the deer pear juice to the emperor for the princess."

Li Jin smiled and retreated. He was the chief eunuch of Yiku Palace, so he didn't care about the two bowls of mung bean soup.

But there are many poor people in the palace who rely on these two bowls of mung bean soup to relieve the heat after a tiring day in the summer.

The Queen is kind-hearted. It is a blessing for these people to have her in charge of the harem.

The princess is the Queen's biological daughter. She has inherited the Queen's temperament, being kind and gentle. She is also cared for and loved by the Queen and the Emperor. She is definitely the most blessed princess in this huge palace.

Sure enough, when the imperial kitchen cooked and cooled the mung bean soup and sent it to the lower rooms, the hot and unbearable lower rooms felt a little sweet and refreshing.

When the news reached the Yangxin Palace, Liang Zhan also received the first fruit tea of early summer - deer pear juice.

"Your Majesty, Imperial Noble Consort Chen and the Fifth Princess asked Li Jin to bring a bowl of deer pear juice, saying it not only clears away heat and quenches thirst but also nourishes the stomach. Furthermore, Imperial Noble Consort Chen has asked the Imperial Kitchen to prepare mung bean soup for the palace maids at noon and at night starting today to relieve the heat."

Qi Deyuan brought in a food box from outside the hall with a smile. When Li Jin delivered it, he also brought a bowl for him. After the emperor finished drinking it, he went out to taste it.

Liang Zhan had been reviewing memorials for the whole morning and finally took his eyes off them for a while to rest.

Qi Deyuan watched the emperor drink a cup of hot tea in one gulp, then looked at the ice jar in the center of the hall.

"Your Majesty, the sun is getting a little weaker outside. I'll have someone remove some ice to prevent it from hurting Your Majesty's body."

Liang Zhan rubbed his tired brows. He had been sitting still for a long time, and there was indeed too much ice in the Yangxin Palace.

"Go."

Qi Deyuan put the deer pear juice on the desk, then went out to ask someone to move the ice and taste the deer pear juice by the way.

Liang Zhan brought over the bowl of cold water that he often saw in Yiku Palace.

Chongyue is young and has a weak stomach, so she cannot eat cold food. In summer, deer pear juice can clear away heat and relieve summer heat, and it is also refreshing and sweet. It is always available in Yiku Palace.

Usually when she drinks, she likes to share a bowl with me. I guess this little girl is missing me again.

Liang Zhan picked up the bowl and took a sip. It wasn't as delicious as the one freshly made in Yikun Palace.

The amount in one bowl was quite large. Liang Zhan finally took a break and slowly finished the whole bowl.

The refreshing pear fragrance lingered in his mouth, and Liang Zhan couldn't help but think of his favorite Chong Yuelai.

Today she was choosing a study partner, and I wonder who else she chose besides the little girl from Duke Dingguo's mansion.

My beloved concubine will definitely ask the imperial kitchen to prepare some cool and refreshing drinks. I wonder if Chongyue is craving them.

Liang Zhan looked at the empty bowl. The eunuch outside the hall had come in, turned off the fan, and moved the ice tank in the hall to the corner.

A good seal slows down the melting of ice and also isolates the cold air from the ice.

These ice cubes taken out of the ice room are already dirty and cannot be put back into the ice room, otherwise they will be used by unintentional people to make drinks and upset the stomachs of the nobles.

The two young eunuchs had finished their work and left. Liang Zhan waited for a long time but there was no sign of Qi Deyuan.

"Qi Deyuan."

"Hey, Your Majesty, I'm here!"

Outside the hall, Qi Deyuan heard the call, and he fed his mouth with what was left in the bowl, wiped his mouth and went into the hall.

Liang Zhan noticed the flaw in Qi Deyuan's mouth at a glance and gave him a speechless look.

Ever since Chongyue became sensible, he has loved sharing food with people around him, and this fat guy has also eaten a lot.

"Your Majesty, are you planning to go to the Yikun Palace?"

Qi Deyuan noticed the emperor's eyes, and while the emperor was not paying attention and his eyes were avoiding him, he wiped his mouth with a handkerchief.

Liang Zhan calculated the time and realized that there should still be guests in Yiku Palace. It would be inconvenient for him to go there to avoid being a burden and making Chongyue uncomfortable.

"No need. Who did the princess choose today?"

Liang Zhan was asking this question to all the princesses who were still living in the palace.

Although he doted on Chongyue, he treated other children equally.

"The second princess chose a cousin from her mother's family. Another princess chose the third daughter of Lord Lin, the prefect of Fengtian Prefecture. She is a good zither player and shares the same interests as the second princess. The third princess chose the eldest daughter of General Feng's family and the second daughter of the Duan family, the minister of the Ministry of Rites. The fourth princess chose the daughter of the Fu family, the chief academic officer of the Imperial College, and the second daughter of the Shen family, the prefect of Jeju."

"The Fifth Princess didn't choose Miss Xiang Zheng because of some minor incidents. Instead, she fell in love with Lord Gu's youngest daughter and the third daughter of Lord Ruan, the Grand Secretary."

Qi Deyuan had already received the results of the princesses' selection of study companions, and he stood in the Yangxin Palace and told all the news he had received like spitting out beans.

"farce?"

Liang Zhan looked serious, thinking that Hua Yan's youngest daughter was unwilling to enter the palace to study with him. Chongyue always gave her sister a share of anything fun, and now she was rejected today, and she must be disappointed.

"Yes, the Third Princess also has her eyes on Miss Xiang Zheng. Since Imperial Noble Consort Chen is now in charge of the harem affairs, it's not appropriate for her to favor one over the other. She declined the offer, citing Miss Xiang Zheng's young age as the reason for not participating in the study companion selection."

Liang Zhan didn't expect this to happen. He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, rubbing his right fingers and whispered:

"Zhirou is still young. She didn't get what she wanted today, so she must be in a bad mood. Please go to Zhaoyang Palace and I will go see her."

Dugu was cruel and ruthless, but it had nothing to do with the child.

Zhirou is a kind-hearted child. Her biological mother has not been around for these years, and she has suffered a lot.

When Liang Chongyue received the message from the system, his hands didn't even shake while he was playing Gobang with Azheng.

"Host, aren't you upset? Originally, Xiang Zheng was going to enter the palace to be your study companion, but now the Third Princess has messed things up, and your scumbag father is still going to visit her."

Liang Chongyue explained the rules of Gobang to Azheng while answering the system's questions.

"You don't understand. My scumbag dad loves me not just because I'm my mother's daughter, but because he's essentially a good father. He loves every child."

Dugu plotted to murder the royal heir and was almost killed instantly upon her appearance. She had to bear all the responsibility for her scumbag father's lack of offspring.

Even so, he was able to avoid the death penalty and was only exiled to the Fuyang Palace. Wasn't it for the sake of the reputation of my third brother and sister as princes and princesses?

How can future generations have any good opinion of a child who has a cruel and brutal mother?

The scumbag father loves his people and his son. Apart from being a scumbag, he is definitely a great emperor.

Besides, they are all born of the same father, and blood is thicker than water. You can't just allow her to eat meat and not allow others to drink soup, right?

It's so uncomfortable to have hair.
