Qingliang Palace, as the name suggests, is the cold palace.

Several concubines looked at the emperor in disbelief, finally realizing that they were in trouble. Their faces turned pale instantly and they felt a little dizzy.

Yang Lan'er was speechless. The ranks of these concubines were not high, but they didn't even fully understand how to survive in the palace. Did they think that the royal family could dominate everything? This was not the era of non-cultivation!

The crowd automatically parted, and the emperor walked towards Yang Lan'er: "Did you get the blue octopus, little girl?"

Yang Lan'er was not used to being called a little girl: "Yes!"

"Don't you want to treat everyone?" The emperor smiled gently: "Then can you let me have a taste? I have never eaten a monster before!"

"..."Yang Lan'er felt that the emperor was really fooling a child!

Even though the Qianxiang Dynasty could not be compared to an imperial dynasty or an empire, as the ruler of a country, she did not believe that she had never eaten monster meat. She just used an exaggerated method to make people around her feel the same way and forget the inappropriate remarks made by several concubines just now.

Of course, the most important thing is that you can get a piece of octopus meat. How perfect would that be?

Yang Lan'er secretly cursed the emperor for his clever tactics. With such a simple action, he was able to rally the people's hearts again. If she did not agree, then his generosity would naturally be discounted.

The emperor had begged for it so humbly, but he still didn't give it to her? It was indeed an imperial society. For others, the emperor to bow his head was a big deal. Yang Lan'er understood, but she didn't feel anything. Most importantly, she had no choice.

"Of course. I wonder if the emperor likes to eat whiskers or meat?" Forget it. Yang Lan'er didn't want to go against the emperor. It was just a piece of meat, not worth fussing about.

As she said this, Yang Lan'er felt proud in her heart. Fortunately, she had left two tentacles, otherwise, she would have forgotten about having fun.

The emperor smiled and said, "Half a tentacle, just give it a try."

Considering the huge size of the octopus, half a tentacle is heavy and large enough.

“Hehe…” Yang Lan’er laughed and shouted at the top of her voice: “Everyone who sees this should get a share. All the chefs present should come and help. Bring all the pots and pans. Then, everyone, help pull up the octopus. Remember to cut off half of its tentacle and send it to the emperor!”

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh. They thought what Yang Lan'er said was so funny. However, they also felt that they had to do their part. Otherwise, it seemed a bit unkind to eat and drink such a precious thing for free.

Suddenly, the scene became very lively, with some people pulling octopus, some making fire, some picking vegetables, some preparing to stew soup, and so on. Everyone worked together and was busy.

Yang Lan'er happily felt a huge amount of wishing power entering the red-eye necklace, and immediately felt that her generosity this time was worth it, although her original intention was just to prevent certain people from taking advantage of her.

The collective feast on the shore infected the fighters underwater. In a very short time, they all emerged from the water and were called to the shore.

The Lezhou City team has almost returned. The most important thing is that only Wei Jie and Li Chun are unlucky and have not found blood corals of the right size.

However, they found some small ones and picked them together at Yang Lan'er's request.

Yang Lan'er happily exchanged the standard-sized blood corals required for tasks with Wei Jie and Li Chun. Others also got some small ones and handed them to Yang Lan'er, making it a great harvest for her.

All members of the Lezhou City team had completed their tasks, so it could no longer affect the fun. Although the news spread quickly, the onlookers were more concerned about the huge octopus feast while discussing it.

After the whole octopus was pulled ashore, it was bigger than everyone had imagined, so everyone was naturally excited, because that meant they could get an extra bite of soup! After Ye Tianqi and the others knew the reason for the excitement, they couldn't help but look at Yang Lan'er a few more times. This girl was really noisy! The most important thing was, how could such a monster be eaten by everyone?

However, things have come to this point, and nothing you say can change the outcome. Besides, this is Yang Lan'er's prey, and she can do whatever she wants to it.

The Emperor did not leave, but was waiting for the octopus feast with the Crown Prince. Soon, the Queen Mother and the Empress also came to join in the fun, making some civilians even more excited.

This feeling is even more enjoyable and lively than the Chinese New Year.

"Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. Ke'er, do you understand?" The emperor couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the happy and prosperous crowd below.

"Yes, father." Qian Ke was deeply touched. Although ordinary civilians did not have strong military power, they could still overthrow a dynasty or even an empire.

"Be kind to Yang Lan'er, and don't get involved in the matter of the underwater breathing elixir." The emperor saw it clearly and didn't want to make Yang Lan'er feel uncomfortable.

Even if there is no competition, that kind of elixir is still quite popular in the market, so there is no need to rush.

"Yes, father, I understand." Qian Ke breathed a sigh of relief. He also thought so at the beginning.

This time, not only should you not interfere with Yang Lan'er's decision, you should also cover for her as much as possible.

In the tent, Yang Lan'er sat lazily, waiting for Lao Liu to bring up some grilled octopus meat before tasting it with interest: "It tastes really good."

"It's good for your skin!" Zhu Shasha only remembered this as she ate elegantly.

"You're a little girl, you haven't even grown up yet, why do you want to care about your looks?" Bai Bi couldn't help but complain. After hearing what Zhu Shasha said, she felt like she was getting old.

"Maintenance is not about size!" Zhu Shasha blinked and said with her tongue sticking out.

Unfortunately, Yang Feiyin was not there at this time. She was coordinating all the chefs to make octopus soup. From this incident, we can see that Yang Feiyin's overall view and control and command capabilities are really good.

Because Yang Lan'er and others didn't want to be disturbed, the Lord of Lezhou City entertained other city lords in another tent.

Enjoying the good wine brought by other city lords, the Lord of Lezhou City narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking that this was a good day. However, everything was brought by Yang Lan'er, and he had to complete Yang Lan'er's task well.

"I say, Lao Gu, that's enough, okay? Everyone in the Lezhou City team has handed in their tasks, and the first to tenth places are all occupied by you. It's time to tell the truth!" Someone couldn't help but asked directly.

The Lord of Lezhou City chuckled, feeling so proud for the first time. Even the Lord of Danfeng City, a first-tier city, was looking at him eagerly. This was something he had never thought of in his life.

After experiencing the feeling of power, the Lord of Lezhou City no longer kept the secret. Some things really need to be stopped in time.

Then, the Lord of Lezhou City took out a porcelain bottle and said, "The secret is here..."

After being itching to try for most of the day, he finally saw the ending. The person who had just spoken couldn't wait to grab the porcelain bottle and pour out two pills.

Seeing this, all the city lords were stunned, feeling surprised, yet as if it was reasonable.
