In summer, the most common food is lotus seed and lily soup.
Although it was common, he didn't dislike it at all. He picked up the spoon and started drinking.
After taking two sips, he commented, "Yu'er personally brought this soup over. It's a little sweeter than the other lotus seed and lily soup."
"It's not just a personal delivery." Tu Qingyu muttered softly, "I made it myself..."
Jiang Jingchuan paused while drinking his soup. "Made it yourself?"
"Yeah." Tu Qingyu nodded.
He quickly finished the whole bowl of lotus seed soup, then grabbed her hand and asked, "Let me take a look. Are you burned?"
"Of course not." Tu Qingyu let him hold her hand. "When I was at home, I often helped my mother cook. Although I worked in the tea room after entering the palace, I think cooking and making tea are the same."
She looked at Jiang Jingchuan seriously, "Your Highness, is the lotus seed and lily soup I made delicious?"
"It's delicious. I've never tasted a lotus seed and lily soup sweeter and more delicious than this."
"You're lying! Your Highness, what delicacies haven't you tasted?"
"No matter how delicious the food is, it's not made by Yu'er himself."
"Your Highness is pleased?"
"I'm happy, but you're still pregnant. You don't have to do such hard work yourself in the future. I'll be just as happy if you ask the servants to do it."
"Then..." She lowered her head, somewhat embarrassed: "Your Highness, can you agree to one request of mine?"
Jiang Jingchuan already knew what she wanted to say, but he still kept a straight face and teased her, "You say, as long as it's not too difficult, I will watch and satisfy you."
"I, I haven't left the palace to see my mother for a long time. Now that the imperial physician says my pregnancy is stable, I want to go out and take a look."
"This..." He seemed embarrassed. "There has never been such a rule in the palace. As you know, when Chen Liangdi's mother passed away some time ago, she didn't leave the palace to pay her respects."
Tu Qingyu was not afraid at all that he would not agree. As if she was sure of what he would say, she stood up, supported herself on the middle table, and took the initiative to kiss him on the face.
At that moment, Jiang Jingchuan felt that the world became much brighter.
After the kiss, she asked softly, "Your Highness, is this okay?"
She was red from the tips of her ears to her neck, but her eyes were shining brightly as she looked at him.
Jiang Jingchuan was almost dizzy by the beauty. He tried hard to control his breathing and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.
He stood up and picked the man up.
"That wasn't enough just now. Let me tell you how to ask someone to do something for you."
"Your Highness, this is still in the study."
"It's okay, I asked someone to leave."
Is this a matter of whether to walk away or not?
Study, didn’t ancient people have any idea that it was disrespectful to society?
He is still a prince, and it is not even completely dark yet. Isn’t this committing adultery in broad daylight?
The next moment, she didn't have much time to think about anything else.
The next morning, the East Palace's carriage left the palace.
The carriage carried the prince and his concubine, who were dressed in casual clothes.
The two went directly to Tu Qingyu's mother's tomb, burned incense and paid their respects.
Jiang Jingchuan was waiting in a carriage not far away, and Tu Qingyu kept talking to the tombstone.
Finally, Jiang Jingchuan was afraid that she was tired, so he walked over and said, "Let's go back now that we've talked enough. We'll come back next time, okay?"
Tu Qingyu looked at him and finally nodded sullenly.
When leaving, Jiang Jingchuan bowed to the tombstone.
His action shocked Tu Qingyu.
"Your Highness? You..."
Tu Qingyu: "Dabao, am I seeing correctly? Jiang Jingchuan, the Crown Prince, bowed to my mother?"
Dabao: "Yes, my dear, judging from this, the prince might be in love with you."
After bowing, he acted as if nothing had happened, reached out to support Tu Qingyu and walked away.
It was not until she got into the carriage that she seemed to come to her senses. "Your Highness, you don't have to do that."
"Can't I?"
"It's not that I can't, you are the prince." Although according to her thinking, kneeling and kowtowing is the right thing to do when meeting her mother-in-law, let alone bowing.
But this was a prince in ancient times, and he was made a prince since he was a child and served as a prince for twenty or thirty years.
He is truly a person who is second to none.
In this world, apart from the emperor and his deceased mother, there should be no one who has ever made him bend over.
But now he came with a concubine to burn incense and even bowed to the concubine's mother.
Not to mention the royal family, even ordinary wealthy families have never seen anything like this.
Jiang Jingchuan held her face and said seriously, "Yu'er, let me say it again. I am the crown prince and also your husband. Whatever a husband does for you is his due."
"Can……"
"Don't worry about buts. Just remember that your husband is the best person in the world for you."
"……Um."
Not to mention, although some of the overbearing prince's remarks were a bit greasy, he was a really nice person.
Dabao: "He's quite capable. I've watched him balance government affairs and suppress his brothers without leaving any trace. Sometimes, even though I don't understand, I still think he's very capable."
Tu Qingyu: "Do you watch him go to court every day?"
Dabao: "Yeah, you were still sleeping when he was in court, and there was no one to chat with me, so I just found some fun on my own. You know what, I can really learn a lot from following the prince's perspective."
Tu Qingyu: "He is really quite capable, as he was able to suppress his brothers to the point where they could only resort to some tricks in the backyard."
To return to the palace from the cemetery, one has to pass the street where Tu Qingyu's aunt lives.
Just as she was about to lift the curtain to see where she was, the carriage was stopped.
