"Come on, I'll take you to the next place." Xiao Yanzi originally thought that Yongqi was going to take her away from Yonghe Palace.
Unexpectedly, they went back and said, "This is our pharmacy."
Xiao Yanzi followed Yongqi into a room next to the main hall. As soon as they reached the door, they smelled a strong medicinal odor.
"How come there are so many medicines here?" Xiao Yanzi asked Yongqi curiously as she walked in to look at the surrounding furnishings.
"We both know medicine, so when we have time, we come here to do some research."
Little Swallow was stunned, "We both know medicine?"
Yongqi nodded, "Yes, so if we have a headache or fever, we don't need to call the imperial physician; we can handle it ourselves."
Xiao Yanzi walked to the table where they usually made medicines. When Yongqi saw her standing there, he couldn't help but recall their intimate interaction there once before.
Yongqi instinctively walked over and pulled Xiaoyanzi into his arms. Xiaoyanzi was a little flustered, "What are you doing?"
"Do you remember what happened here?" Yongqi put his arm around Xiaoyanzi's waist, pressing her body tightly against his.
Looking at Yongqi's expression, Xiaoyanzi couldn't help but guess at some indescribable scenes.
"We wouldn't be here too..." Before Xiao Yanzi could finish speaking, Yongqi covered her mouth.
The unsuspecting little swallow was soon kissed until her legs went weak.
Because they were away fighting, the platform had already been cleaned, which made it convenient for Yongqi.
He laid Little Swallow down on the stage, then pounced on her, crying, "Little Swallow..."
His hand touched Xiao Yanzi's waist, "Xiao Yanzi..."
Yongqi's murmurs sounded very familiar to Xiaoyanzi, and she unconsciously matched his every move.
"Yongqi..." Finally, she couldn't help but call out Yongqi's name.
Hearing this familiar address, Yongqi became even more excited.
"Husband..." The two held hands, and Xiao Yanzi kept calling him, her voice growing hoarse.
"Please... let me go..." Yongqi finally left and let her go.
He picked up the clothes from the ground and helped Xiao Yanzi put them back on.
After that, Yongqi carried her directly to the hot spring next to Xiaoyanzi's room.
Upon entering the hot spring, Xiao Yanzi felt a misty haze surrounding her. "Where is this...?"
"We two often come here when we have nothing to do..."
The hot spring is also filled with memories of the two of them fooling around everywhere.
However, Little Swallow's mind is not yet filled with those unbearable images.
"Alright, I won't bother you anymore. You should take a good soak..." Yongqi knew that Xiaoyanzi was very tired and needed to rest, so he stopped touching her.
When they were soaking in the hot spring until almost dusk, Yongqi finally carried Xiaoyanzi out. "I'll take you back to your study first, and then I'll go to the kitchen to make dinner."
"But I want to go see..." After her close contact with Yongqi just now, she seemed unwilling to be separated from him. "Please..."
Little Swallow pouted and acted coquettishly towards Yongqi, who simply couldn't resist.
"Okay, I'll take you there." Yongqi carried Xiaoyanzi back to the kitchen.
"You just sit here and watch me cook." Yongqi placed Xiaoyanzi on a chair to the side, a spot where she could watch him cook without being bothered by the fumes.
Since Yongqi said he would cook dinner, Xiaoshunzi and Xiaoguizi specially asked someone to add some ingredients to the kitchen so that Yongqi could cook.
Xiao Yanzi sat on the chair, watching Yongqi skillfully prepare the ingredients. She couldn't help but wonder what she had done in the past to make such a prince willing to wash his hands and cook for her...
By the time Yongqi finished preparing the meal, it was almost 7 PM.
"Scholars, quickly bring the food out."
"They've arrived." The talented scholars entered one after another and carried the food to the dining room.
"Mother, dinner is ready." Yongqi called over Consort Yu, who was taking care of the child. "Mother, come and try it. See if your son's cooking skills have deteriorated?"
After Yongqi washed Xiaoyanzi's hands, he helped her to her seat. "Come on, drink some more chicken soup to nourish your body."
For some reason, when Xiao Yanzi heard the words "nourish the body," she inexplicably remembered everything that happened at the pharmacy that day, and her face involuntarily turned red.
Consort Yu, seeing Xiao Yanzi's expression, knew what had happened that afternoon. She glared at Yongqi and said with a look, "You better watch yourself. If you scare my daughter-in-law away, I'll never forgive you!"
"..." Yongqi looked at his mother, whose heart had become so biased, and felt like crying. But then he remembered that his wife still cared about him, and he felt that the world was still good to him!
"Little Swallow, how is it? Is the chicken soup delicious?" Consort Yu looked at Little Swallow curiously.
Little Swallow nodded repeatedly, "It's so delicious! My goodness, your cooking is amazing!"
Yongqi served Xiaoyanzi a few more dishes, and Xiaoyanzi praised him enthusiastically, "You're really amazing!"
Now she believed it. One reason she was willing to give up her freedom and stay by Yongqi's side was because Yongqi was an excellent cook!
"Ah... Ma..." Just as they were eating their meal, Mianyao, who was being held by Caixia, suddenly reached out towards Yongqi and called out to him.
Yongqi wondered if he was hallucinating, but then he saw Caixia excitedly carrying Mianyao over, "Little Princess, say it again..."
“Ah… Ma…” Yongqi was overjoyed to hear his beloved daughter call him.
"Mother, listen, she called me Father!"
Consort Yu was also very happy, "I heard it, she can call me Father..."
However, then they heard Mianhua, who was being held by Mingyue, call out to Xiaoyanzi, "Mother, Mother..."
The two children were each held in Yongqi's and Xiaoyanzi's arms. Then Mianhua and Mianyao called out to Consort Yu, which made Consort Yu extremely happy and excited!
Consort Yu sighed, "How happy the Emperor and the Empress Dowager would be if they knew that the two of them could greet people!"
"The Emperor has arrived! The Empress Dowager has arrived!" The eunuch's voice came from outside, and Yongqi and Consort Yu were both very surprised.
The masters and servants all bowed to Emperor Qianlong and the Empress Dowager, but Qianlong waved his hand and said, "There's no need for such formalities."
"Seeing you all laughing so happily, is something wrong...?"
Before Qianlong could finish speaking, he was interrupted, "Grand...Father..."
Both Emperor Qianlong and the Empress Dowager looked at the little girl who had just called out to Emperor Qianlong with great surprise. Emperor Qianlong said excitedly, "Did I hear that right? It was this little girl who called out to me?"
Then, the little girl Mianyao called out again, "Your Majesty..."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Qianlong repeatedly replied, "Very good, very good, Yongqi, your daughter takes after you..."
Yongqi quickly said, "Father, you flatter me. This is all thanks to Xiaoyanzi. Xiaoyanzi often taught her to call me 'Father Emperor'..."
When he spent most of his time with Mianyao, he taught her to call him "Father" and "Mother," and to remember how amazing and outstanding her mother was!
"Hahaha, really? It's all thanks to Xiao Yanzi?" Qianlong didn't see anything wrong with it. He looked at Xiao Yanzi beside him, "Xiao Yanzi, are you getting used to staying in Yonghe Palace? Have you regained any memories?"
Little Swallow replied truthfully, "Father, although I haven't remembered anything yet, I can feel the warmth of home here..."
