"I'm a little tired today, so let's not make the activities too complicated." Duan Yong's eyes turned red.
Zhang Ling, standing nearby, understood what Duan Yong meant.
He quickly gave orders to cut the event's agenda in half.
"My son, what's wrong with you? Why don't we call the imperial physician to take a look?" The empress dowager saw that Duan Yong's face looked a little pale and said hurriedly.
The Queen Mother noticed that every time she took Zhang Ling's pills, she always felt refreshed, but if she didn't use them for a while, she would feel more tired than before.
"No need for that. Master Zhang has been studying under a divine doctor since he was young. His medical skills are superb, not inferior to those of the imperial physician. Moreover, I believe his elixirs are indeed effective. As long as you take them regularly, you will definitely strengthen your body and prolong your life."
The Queen Mother wanted to say something, but when she saw Duan Yong waved his hand, she stopped talking.
Today's banquet seemed quieter and duller than the previous two days.
Some interesting games were also cancelled.
In the blink of an eye, it was evening, and the menu was all about peonies. Zhang Ling invited court prostitutes to perform for everyone.
Gu Yufei didn't sleep well last night, and at this time she was so sleepy that she could hardly open her eyes, but everyone around her was sitting upright, so she had to maintain her demeanor as well.
Wait, she wasn’t the only one feeling sleepy.
Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is a little sleepy.
The emperor, in particular, covered his mouth and yawned several times.
Gu Yufei thought about what modern entertainment methods could be applied here.
Cards, mahjong, flying chess...
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Queen Mother, I have some little things I want to share with everyone." After the song and dance ended, Gu Yufei stood up.
"Tell me about it." The Queen Mother became alert.
She just punished Gu Yufei by making her copy books yesterday. What does she want to do today?
"When I was little, I played a game called Mahjong with my friends."
"How do you play this game?"
Seeing that the queen mother was interested, Gu Yufei quickly introduced how to play mahjong.
"It sounds interesting. But we don't have ready-made mahjong. What should we use instead? I'll leave this matter to you." The Queen Mother was in a good mood.
If this game is fun, you can use it to kill time in the harem on weekdays.
"Yes. I obey your command." Gu Yufei said, and took ten palace maids away to play mahjong together.
"Sir Zhang, please go and see Madam Fu. If she needs anything, please provide her with help in time," said the Queen Mother.
"Yes!" Zhang Ling laughed in his heart.
The Queen Mother's arrangement was exactly what he wanted.
"Madam Fu, the Queen Mother ordered me to come and assist." Zhang Ling looked very polite.
When the palace maids present saw Lord Zhang coming, they were afraid of him but also wanted to get his attention.
They had all heard about Lord Zhang's swift and decisive actions and his cruel trials of criminals.
But if you can become his spouse, you will definitely have no worries about food and clothing and enjoy a life of wealth and glory.
Most of the palace maids kept these thoughts to themselves, but some bold ones were different.
For example, the pretty little palace maid next to Gu Yufei, when she saw Master Zhang coming, quietly fixed her hair. "Hello, Master Zhang."
Zhang Ling glanced at her sideways and said nothing.
The little palace maid's face turned slightly red.
"As you can see, the mahjong will be ready very quickly, so I probably won't need your help."
"Really?" Zhang Ling said casually.
Some of the palace maids were grinding wood, some were carving words. They were all used to doing the work and had nimble hands and feet. In a short while, a set of mahjong was made.
