In any case, the group had a lot of fun in the end.
As dusk approached.
"I heard there's a lantern festival tonight. We've had our meal outside the palace. Shall we go see the lantern festival before we head back? None of you princesses and little princesses have ever seen a lantern festival outside the palace, have you?"
E Ting looked at Saiya, who was clearly still excited and hadn't had enough fun yet, and spoke up.
Worried that Yongxuan and the others wouldn't agree, E'ting very considerately dragged along their sweethearts.
However, the final decision rests with Yongxuan.
Therefore, everyone set their sights on Yongxuan.
Under the expectant gazes of everyone, Yongxuan felt a chill run down his spine. Logically speaking, it was against the rules for the princesses to return to the palace late.
But it touched the great curiosity and interest in the eyes of the girls around him, and he thought that it was rare for the girls to leave the palace.
"Then let's go see the lantern festival and then go back. We'll send someone to deliver a message to the Emperor and the Empress Dowager." Fortunately, these are all their own people, so the Emperor and the Empress Dowager can rest assured.
Yongxuan nodded.
"Yay!"
"Shall we go to Jinxinlou then?"
With permission granted, E Ting carried the directions. If you want to know what fun things to do in the capital or which shop has the best food, you can't go wrong with E Ting.
"Can."
Yongxuan and the others nodded in agreement. When it came to eating, drinking, and having fun, they really couldn't compare to E'ting.
Yongxuan had been in Medicine King Valley for more than ten years. Now, he had just returned to the capital. In addition, he was preparing to enter the court. After entering the court, he was so busy that he had no time to learn about the things in the capital.
If it weren't for the matter of the Mongolian prince, he wouldn't have been able to see Qing'er at all, because he's been too busy lately.
As the saying goes, the officialdom is like a battlefield; one must establish oneself in the court to gain respect, otherwise no one will respect one's abilities.
Those who have served in the imperial court for many years are all cunning old foxes; they would never easily submit to someone who has just entered the court and has taken over the position of Minister of War.
How long have they coveted this position? Now it has been taken by someone who came out of nowhere. How could they let Yongxuan off so easily?
Fortunately, Yongxuan was truly capable; his title as a child prodigy from a young age was well-deserved. Even though he was in poor health, he still learned everything he needed to, so he wasn't afraid of any obstacles. He would dismantle them one by one, not to mention that Ertai was there to help him, so it didn't cause any real harm.
There are just too many obstacles, and it takes a lot of time to remove them.
As Yongqi was raised by the emperor, his studies were also very demanding, and he was extremely busy. Even if he had heard of Jinxinlou in the capital, he would not have had time to go there.
...
"Is it that restaurant in the capital that's famous for its most expensive and delicious food, but nobody knows who owns it and nobody dares to touch it?"
Upon hearing the words "Jin Xin," Benjamin spoke with a hint of excitement. He often went out of the palace to paint and knew more about it, but he had never actually been there.
The word "salary" itself indicates that the items inside were not cheap; it could be said that it was a place specifically for the consumption of high-ranking officials and nobles.
Young masters from prominent families can boast about it for months if they invite someone to have a meal there.
Because the dishes inside are really expensive.
One meal could cost as much as a month's salary for all the ministers, and that was with a small amount of food; if there were a lot of food, it would take several months.
However, despite its absurdity, Jinxinlou has not only survived but has stood in the capital for many years, attracting not only a large number of high-ranking officials and nobles but also a great fondness for it.
Whenever I need to meet with friends or find a place to discuss business, I like to go to Jinxinlou. If it weren't for the fact that my salary is not enough, I would probably go there every day.
The common people were also happy to watch the spectacle. It was fortunate that Jinxinlou was located in the capital, otherwise they would never have seen so many high-ranking officials and nobles.
