Inside the palace, the emperor sat at the table, looking at the delicacies on the jade plate, and his appetite was poor.
"Your Majesty, do you want to hold the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet this year?" Li Defu asked for the sixteenth time as usual.
The palace hasn't held a Mid-Autumn Festival banquet for sixteen years.
The emperor picked up a piece of duck slices and glanced at them calmly, "I am alone, who do you want me to be reunited with?"
"If you can find the princess before the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will immediately send someone to hold a grand ceremony."
Li Defu bowed his head.
The princess gave birth prematurely and had to travel all the way to Bozhou. If she had committed a heinous crime, she might have died.
But who would dare to say this to the emperor, unless he doesn't want his head anymore.
"go out."
"Yes." Li Defu left.
In the empty hall, there was only the emperor, which seemed a little lonely.
"shadow."
"I am here."
"Send more people to Bozhou to investigate secretly. I want a result within three months."
"yes."
…
There is a rest day every ten days, and each rest day is two days. As it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the rest day is extended to five days.
It has been almost ten days since Feng Huaiji last met Yingyue at the gate of the mansion.
It was almost 9 o'clock when Feng Huaiji called Qingming and said, "Go to the third room to see if Miss Nine has woken up. If she has, tell her that I want to take her to the eastern suburbs."
"What if he doesn't wake up?"
"If she hasn't woken up yet, just wait until she wakes up." Feng Huaiji leaned back in the rocking chair and turned the pages of the travel journal in his hand.
I don't know how long she will sleep.
"yes."
Quarter of an hour later, Qingming came back to report that Yingyue had woken up.
Feng Huaiji went out and waited at the gate of the mansion for a while before seeing her coming out wearing a white riding uniform and her maid.
"Second brother."
"Yeah." Feng Huaiji helped her get on the carriage, "Why is that little chatterbox following you not here?"
"He said that Fu Xiaoyi invited him to visit the Yong'an Marquis's mansion today, so he left early in the morning. Thank you, second brother, for sending someone to make the riding clothes for me."
Feng Huaiji climbed onto the carriage and asked, "Well, you just woke up?"
The carriage was driven slowly.
"How did Second Brother know?"
"Xiao Qi said so. The last time I came back from court, I ran into him and he said you were still sleeping."
Yingyue blushed, "I used to be used to sleeping in, and couldn't get up early."
Even though she had to go and pay her respects to the old lady early, she would still continue to sleep after returning, as she would not have the energy to do so.
Feng Huaiji poured her a cup of the scented tea that Qingming and the others had prepared, "Have you had breakfast?"
"I had some snacks." Feng Huaiji said he would take her to the horse farm, and she felt embarrassed to keep him waiting.
Feng Huaiji looked up at her and opened the curtain, "Qingming, go to Tianzhai Pavilion."
"yes."
"Come out after breakfast later."
"Oh." His eyes were calm, as if he was not as gentle as before. Yingyue responded obediently.
Are you angry?
Yingyue picked up the tea in front of her and took a sip. It tasted like Roselle.
She looked up at him quietly. Her second brother was quite attentive.
Feng Huaiji picked up the travel book he brought with him and continued reading.
Yingyue finished the cup of tea and lifted the curtain to look outside.
Feng Huaiji reached out and refilled her tea.
"Second brother, I want to eat dragon beard cake."
"Xuanqing, go buy some dragon beard cakes."
"Yes." The carriage stopped, and Xuan Qing bought the things back after a while.
Yingyue opened the oil paper package and pushed it in front of Feng Huaiji, "Second brother, do you want to eat it?"
"I don't like it, you eat it yourself." Feng Huaiji raised his eyes and met her moist and bright almond eyes, and shook his head.
