Yun Tao called the kitchen manager in and asked him the same question again.
The kitchen manager replied with a smile, "Your Highness, the shrimp paste, crispy pork, and various meatballs were all made according to your instructions. Please come over here to take a look."
Yun Qingluo instructed Yun Tao to keep an eye on the heat, while she followed the steward to a small cubicle next door, where a lot of ice was placed to keep the food fresh.
The cutting board was covered with all kinds of meatballs, and Yun Qingluo looked at them one by one.
Nodding in satisfaction, she knew that leaving this matter to the kitchen manager was the right thing to do.
The head of the kitchen was formerly an imperial chef in the palace, a position bestowed upon the general's residence by the late emperor.
Most importantly, he is a complete foodie and knows how to eat a lot.
Yun Qingluo nodded. "That's right. Yun Tao, go and call Father and Mother for dinner. Steward, please carry this small stove to the pavilion and put a few more braziers there for heating."
"Yes, Your Highness," the steward hurriedly replied.
Yun Qinglu often cooked hot pot when she was in the Prince's mansion, but this was the first time her father and mother had ever seen it done. They were quite surprised. After Yun Qinglu explained how to eat hot pot, the two of them couldn't wait to start eating.
Yun Qinglu stayed at the Prince's Mansion for a few days. Then, someone from the Prince's Mansion came to her door and said that the noble ladies of the capital were going to hold a spring polo tournament and specially invited the Princess to participate.
Yun Qingluo raised an eyebrow. "I don't usually participate in these kinds of activities, so let's decline."
She's pregnant now, and although playing around won't have any impact, she should give up the idea to be absolutely sure.
Moreover, it was only early March, and the grass on the ground hadn't even grown much yet, but this group of people couldn't wait to invite her out; they probably didn't have good intentions.
The people from the Prince's residence replied, "That's what we said too, but the person who delivered the invitation said that Miss Mo from the Mo family misses the Princess very much and always hopes to see her..."
Yun Qingluo's face turned cold. They had only exchanged a few words before the palace banquet, and this was already being remembered?
"Accept the invitation and tell them that I, the Princess Consort, will attend." Yun Qingluo's voice was cold.
They really don't let her have a few days of peace.
Yun's father and mother knew that Yun Qingluo was going to participate in the polo match, but they didn't say anything.
"It's good to go out for a walk. You haven't been out for a long time, don't get too cooped up at home," Yun's mother said to Yun Qingluo with a smile.
Before Yun Qingluo got married, she was always encouraged by Yun Yiyi to go out and have fun, and she was rarely at home. Her reputation was already ruined.
But now, seeing Yun Qingluo patiently staying at home for several days in a row, Yun's mother is worried that she is going crazy from being cooped up.
Yun Qingluo smiled and said, "Mother, I won't get bored staying at home with you."
Yunmu was delighted to hear this. "I've been very happy these past few days, but you haven't been back to the manor for a long time. You should go back and visit."
Yun Qingluo and Yun Mu talked for a long time before getting into the carriage and returning to the palace.
Everything in the Prince's Mansion remained the same, but it was still much quieter than the General's Mansion.
When Yunxin saw Yun Qingluo at the door, her eyes reddened. "Your Highness, you're finally back. You've been gone for more than two months without taking me with you."
Yun Qingluo smiled slightly and took Yun Xin's hand. "Why are you crying? I'm back safe and sound, aren't I? You'll be busy from now on."
Yunxin sniffed, "I promised Protector Li that I would protect the princess closely, but the princess is unwilling to take me into the palace."
Seeing that she was looking aggrieved again, Yun Qingluo smiled and explained, "The rules in the palace are complicated. You grew up in the Valley of Divine Physicians, so naturally you can't adapt. Anyway, I'm back now, so don't worry."
The steward, who was waiting nearby, also came forward and bowed to Yun Qingluo, saying, "Your Highness, you're back. Yuluo Courtyard has been prepared."
Yun Qingluo nodded. "Thank you for your hard work."
"That's all expected. By the way, the clothes and supplies for the Princess's polo match have been prepared. The Princess can go directly there then," the butler continued.
Yun Qinglu smiled and said, "Thank you for your trouble, housekeeper."
The butler waved his hands repeatedly, "Your Highness has misunderstood. This was ordered by His Highness before he went to war. His Highness said that the noble ladies in the capital have nothing better to do and always like to engage in all sorts of activities. If you can help Your Highness to decline them, decline them. If you can't decline them, prepare the corresponding clothes and supplies."
Yun Qingluo raised an eyebrow, and chuckled slightly as she recalled Mo Beichen's impatient expression when he said those words.
She missed A-Chen a little; she wanted to hear his voice, hold his hand, and snuggle in his arms without having to think about anything.
After returning to her room, Yun Qingluo summoned An Jiu.
"Is there any movement from the Prime Minister's side?" Yun Qingluo asked calmly, sitting at the table and looking at the red dress that Mo Beichen had specially prepared for her.
An Jiu forced a smile onto his expressionless face. "Your Highness is right. There is indeed movement on the Prime Minister's side. Not only did they send assassins to the battlefield to kill Your Highness, but they also spent lavishly to anonymously buy Your Highness's life at a high price in the martial arts world."
Upon hearing this, Yun Qinglu snorted coldly. That old fox knew that there were unusual movements in all three kingdoms, so how could he let go of this good opportunity?
In the previous life, the empress was not deposed, and the evidence against the third prince was not uncovered. That old fox had already made two preparations. Now that the third prince has been deposed, he will naturally speed up his actions.
In her previous life, she knew that the old fox had ambitions to dominate the world, but since he was the maternal grandfather of the Third Prince and also an ally, she never cared.
This life is different, so she will naturally be more careful.
"Inform the Prince of the situation in the capital as soon as possible and tell him to be careful," Yun Qingluo said solemnly.
Now that Ah Chen is besieged on all sides, he really needs to be careful.
After agreeing, An Jiu did not leave immediately, but hesitated and wanted to say something but stopped.
Yun Qingluo said, "Speak your mind."
An Jiu took a breath and mustered her courage to say, "Your Highness, won't you write a letter home to the Prince? He would be very happy to see it."
Yun Qingluo looked at the trees outside the window and smiled mischievously, "I'm not writing."
We have to make him keep thinking about it.
Disappointed, An Jiu left. Mo Yu quickly pulled him aside and asked, "Did the Princess write a letter?"
An Jiu shook his head.
Mo Yu scratched the back of his head, somewhat puzzled. "The Princess and the Prince clearly have a good relationship. Mo Feng sent a message saying that the Prince would be disappointed every time he asked if the Princess had any news to bring him."
An Jiu sighed as well, "Let's not speculate about our master's affairs. There are more important matters to attend to now..."
Yun Qingluo stayed at the Prince's mansion for a few days, spending her days in the pharmacy either reading medical books or developing medicines.
The fifteenth day of the third month in the third year of Tianhe.
A polo match in the suburbs.
This polo match was organized by the Imperial Noble Consort at the behest of the noble ladies. Normally, ordinary noble ladies would not be able to persuade the Imperial Noble Consort to participate, but the Imperial Noble Consort's sister happened to be among them, which is why she received this favor.
Therefore, this polo match can be said to be the most high-profile one in Beijing in recent years.
