The atmosphere was a bit heavy. Although there were several ice basins in the room, palace servants were constantly fanning the room.

The minister still felt cold sweat all over his body, and the cool breeze made him feel even colder.

At this time, Eunuch Huang came to report that Princess Yaochi was waiting outside. Emperor Mingde waved his hand, and the ministers quickly retreated with a sense of relief.

When passing by Princess Yao Chi, they saluted respectfully one by one, and Yao Chi smiled back in confusion.

After the ministers left, Yao Chi brought a plate of fruit salad and said, "Father, please try it! This is the fruit salad made by Yue Er. It's delicious!"

Emperor Mingde looked at the colorful and crystal clear fruits on the plate, some of which he had never seen before.

"What are these?"

Yao Chi answered excitedly, "This is mango, dragon fruit, and strawberry. The strawberry and mango are the best!

This is a banana, perfect for the Empress Dowager, and this is a watermelon. Father, please try some quickly."

Emperor Mingde never refused his little daughter's coquettishness. He took the soup spoon from Eunuch Huang and scooped a spoonful of watermelon and mango directly.

The cool, refreshing and slightly sour taste exploded instantly, and Emperor Mingde couldn't help but eat most of it.

She nodded as she ate, "This little girl has quite a few creative ideas. What is this white liquid food?"

Emperor Mingde was referring to yogurt. "Sister Yue'er said it was yogurt, which she fermented from cow's milk. It's sour, and she poured a big bottle of it."

Yao Chi tried her best to promote Jiang Yue in front of Emperor Mingde, and then asked Emperor Mingde for the treasure with her big watery eyes.

The emperor's laughter spread out of the room. The queen was not far away and heard the emperor laughing heartily.

When he heard the palace maid say that Princess Yao Chi was there, he was so angry that he almost bit his teeth.

He looked at his daughter, Princess Yas, with disappointment.

"Why don't you learn from Yao Chi? Send some food to please your father! You are a legitimate princess, and your status is the most noble among all the princes and princesses.

Even the Crown Prince is not my biological son. Now that he is registered under my name, he can be considered my legitimate son.

But you are the real legitimate daughter, yet you are not as loved by your father as a concubine's princess!"

Princess Yasi was timid. Although she was a legitimate princess, she never dared to act presumptuously in front of Emperor Mingde.

Since childhood, she has been treated with coldness by the Queen, who dislikes her for not being a prince and for not being favored by the Emperor.

In short, she doesn't look like the Grand Tutor's granddaughter at all, which brings shame to her and the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

She always said that she was the legitimate princess and asked her to compete with Yao Chi for favor, but she didn't think about the fact that Concubine Liang had been favored by her father for so many years.

As for the Queen herself, every time the Emperor came to her palace, the Emperor Mingde would leave without saying a word.

Her father always gave her the impression of being majestic. He held her in his arms twice when she was a child, but was criticized by the Queen for holding her grandson instead of her son, so she refused.

After that, the emperor never held her again, but he was often seen holding Yao Chi, who was only a few months old, and Concubine Liang never said anything bad about it.

These were the pains in Princess Yas's heart, but she did not dare to disobey the queen.

The emperor doesn't like her. If the queen mother also hates her, what will happen to her marriage?

Queen Duan was still chattering and blaming Princess Ya Si, but Ya Si didn't even raise her head. She was already used to this kind of scolding.

The nanny next to her couldn't bear it, so she held the queen and shook her head. Only then did Queen Duan stop talking.

Looking at this biological daughter he gave birth to without saying a word, he became more and more annoyed. He just told Princess Yas to get out!

Princess Yas had no choice but to go back to her room. The eldest princess Shuran was eating mung bean soup sent from the kitchen in her room.

He looked up at Princess Yas, then continued to eat his food, ignoring her completely.

Princess Yas glanced at the eldest princess, tears of grievance welling up in her eyes, and she hurried to the room on her left.

Yao Chi's coquettish behavior earned Jiang Yue a lot of good things from Emperor Mingde, and he happily returned to his mother with the rewards.

Jiang Yuezheng, Concubine Liang and Prince An were eating fruit salad. The icy and cool taste made Prince An praise it highly.

Concubine Liang preferred this sweet and sour fruit stew, which was very refreshing and appetizing in summer.

Yao Chi pushed all the rewards she brought back to Jiang Yue, "Sister, look. This is the reward I asked my father for, and it's all yours!"

Jiang Yue's eyes were fixed on the plump South China pearls, the glittering golden headpieces, the glittering and colorful clothes, and the crystal clear jade jewelry.

"Wow!! So many good things, and you're giving them all to me? You're so kind, sis!!"

"Do you like it?"

Jiang Yue nodded repeatedly, she liked it so much!

No matter how many jewels there are in the space, she will never think it’s too much!

Concubine Liang looked at Jiang Yue's money-obsessed look, smiled and winked at Yu Qiu, who clapped his hands.

A row of palace maids came in and opened the boxes one by one, revealing various precious jewellery and clothes.

Jiang Yue was stunned. People coming out of the palace are different!

Look at the emerald green!

Pearls are so round!

Such a gorgeous headpiece!

This dress feels so soft!!

She loves it! The more the better!

"Aunt, this? This is all for me?"

Jiang Yue's money-grubber look made everyone laugh. The four maids of the Yu generation covered their mouths and looked at her.

"Yes, I should have given it to you this morning. It's all because of Prince Rong's surprise attack, and we weren't prepared, so I can only make it up to you now.

Look, do you like these?"

Jiang Yue lay on the tray, "I like it! I like it so much! Thank you, aunt and sister!!"

Prince An was a little anxious. As a man, he didn't care much about these girls' things. When he left the palace, he didn't bring any rare treasures with him.

He immediately asked his servant to go to Jiang Yue's room and bring her some fine red fox furs.

This fire fox is so rare, and it is so well prepared that it is especially warm to make into a scarf in winter.

"Thank you, second cousin! Yue'er likes it very much!" Jiang Yue hugged the fire fox fur and felt the soft touch. It is a national first-class protected animal in modern times. If you dare to catch it, you will get a pair of silver bracelets!

Eunuch Huang sent someone to tell him that he was busy today and would not come for dinner that night.

Jiang Yue asked the eunuch to take the roast duck to Emperor Mingde for him to enjoy alone.

As soon as they sat down, Prince Rong came over after smelling the food.

"Mother, why didn't you wait for me? I haven't eaten anything all afternoon and I'm starving."

After washing my hands, I sat next to Jiang Yue and looked at the dishes on the table. There was even a roast duck and a fruit plate?

Prince Rong picked up a piece of bright red dragon fruit and asked, "What is this?"

When Yao Chi heard that she could be of use, she quickly explained the origins of these fruits, which made Prince Rong look at Jiang Yue slightly.

Jiang Yue was a little embarrassed. She felt a little immune to being praised after being praised so much in one day!

"Yue'er gave us quite a few surprises today, that's amazing."

Jiang Yue laughed twice and passed it off, then quickly used the serving chopsticks to make a roast duck roll for Concubine Liang.
