The setting sun shone on the Liubei Palace, making it a very beautiful sight.
This was originally a banquet, meant to create a festive atmosphere.
Flowers bloom, and the wind carries their fragrance.
The items were almost all set up in the open space in front of the hall.
Water had been poured on the ground, so the heat had mostly dissipated. Besides, a small stream flowed in front of the hall, so it wasn't particularly hot to begin with.
Now is the perfect time; having come out, I'm strolling around the pavilion again.
Huan Yue thought the place was beautifully decorated, and the pavilion was quite large, enough to seat seven or eight people for a small gathering.
Prince Peng followed his father, the emperor.
The current father is concerned about his eldest son, who is going out on business. His father always gives him instructions.
Huan Yue looked at him and thought that Prince Peng was just like a good student.
He was only twenty years old; most people hadn't even graduated from university.
The father wasn't old, but he was very strict, so the students were naturally nervous and listened carefully, lest they fail the test later.
Even though he wears casual clothes these days, a successful man in his forties is quite charming.
Huan Yue felt that this gave him confidence and conviction.
The reason why some people are greasy is because the grease seeps out from their hearts.
Everyone has a rich inner world. When you're young, you might hide it with your youthful energy, but as you get older, you can't hide it anymore.
King Zheng followed behind.
He was good-looking, a handsome young man, and his favor with the emperor was different from that of Prince Peng.
Prince Peng had probably received very little attention from his father throughout his life, reflecting a distance between ruler and subject. He certainly wasn't so frightened that his legs went weak.
Prince Zheng secretly glanced at his second sister-in-law; she was much more radiant than before.
Perhaps the oppressive atmosphere in the Pei residence is something everyone can guess what the Pei residence is like.
It's quite remarkable that the Crown Princess managed to stay in the Pei household and not go astray. Or rather, she's the one who went astray.
Huan Yue glanced at the handsome young man, wondering what his story with Pei Huanjiao was.
After all, Pei Huanjiao is a supporting character in the book; the main focus is on the sweet story between the Crown Prince and his beloved.
The Crown Prince is busy grilling meat right now; it's his time to show off.
After the exam, Dalang called out, "Qing'e, do you have anything to say?"
Huan Yue blinked.
We're having fun now, but isn't it too late to think about it now?
Huan Yue glanced at Prince Peng and then said without any hesitation, "Has Young Master Shen arrived in Sheng'an? If you go with Prince Peng, you can keep him company."
Jin nodded in approval: "Great idea!"
Huan Yue, carried away by his pride, said, "Since Young Master Shen is a scholar, why not seek further instruction from Grand Tutor Wen?"
The Emperor nodded: "Indeed. Shen Yanzong will be temporarily appointed as the Libationer of the Eastern Pavilion of the Prince Peng's Mansion."
King Peng quickly expressed his gratitude.
King Zheng blinked to the side.
This is a good thing for Prince Peng. Not only does it promote his cousin, but it also gives Prince Peng support.
No matter what, the Shen family had been living in the local area for many years. Compared to the sheltered Peng Wang, they could provide considerable assistance.
The key is reliability and that they are one of our own.
King Zheng thought about himself and couldn't find a single person who was on his side.
He was always surrounded by his mother's, his eldest sister's, or the Cui family's people; he never had anyone of his own.
It's getting more and more boring. King Zheng suddenly felt a little envious of his elder brother.
The emperor showed some fatherly love to the eldest son, but then turned around and doted on the fourth son: "What's wrong with that Pei woman?"
King Zheng was ashamed: "Your subject was young and ignorant."
The current ruler pampers her: "You really think it's not going to work?"
King Zheng hurriedly said, "No! This woman is capable of anything to get into King Zheng's mansion, which shows that she is wicked. What will she do in the future?"
Today, we see the blue moth.
Huan Yue quickly replied, "That's the Pei family's extensive education program."
He raised an eyebrow.
Huan Yue whispered, "The Phoenix Fate is the only one we want to obtain; we don't care about the others."
He suddenly burst out laughing in anger.
Huan Yue thought to himself, "The Pei family is doomed: 'I was suddenly betrothed, and the Pei family never expected that I would have such good fortune. To take my life, they did... well, let's not talk about it. As for Chang Chenghui, he looks down on His Highness because the fish isn't fat enough. The Pei family casts a wide net, not even letting go of the Prince of Wu's mansion.'"
A palace attendant ran over to report: "The Pei family has sent their fifth daughter, Pei Huanqiao, to the Yongning Prince's residence, and the Yongning Prince likes her very much."
Huan Yue, ever the gossip, asked, "Where is the Princess Consort?"
The eunuch reported, "Prince Yongning loves flowers, and his wife doesn't mind."
Huan Yue remained silent. It wasn't that he didn't care, it was that he couldn't afford to care. The Prince of Yongning was a few months younger than the Crown Prince, and he took a concubine at the end of last year.
Being the third child is probably much easier than being the eldest or second eldest brother. They're born into royalty, and their lives are incredibly comfortable.
Who doesn't love flowers and plants? He could probably afford to play with even one of the Pei family's flowers.
The Pei family's flower entanglement with Prince Zheng is a problem for him. Prince Yongning is a different story; the Pei family might not be able to outmaneuver him.
The Pei family's actions are incredibly audacious; otherwise, how could a concubine's daughter really become a princess?
They laughed now.
Huan Yue thought to himself, "The Prince of Yongning has probably messed up his father's plans." Although it wasn't the first time he'd done so.
Every family has its burdens. Prince Yongning can afford to be a burden; his father has powerful connections.
The Emperor said nothing more and came over to watch the Crown Prince roast meat.
Xie Zhou was serious; he wasn't just putting on an act.
He changed his clothes and rolled up his sleeves to grill the meat himself.
The cook watched nervously from the side, watching as the meat began to smell delicious.
Jin Dian laughed loudly: "Erlang did a good job."
Huan Yue said in a low voice, "If I ever lose my job, I'll sell barbecue."
He glanced at her and laughed, "Then what are you going to do?"
Huan Yue raised his head: "Naturally, it's the proprietress who collects the money."
Looking at her now, I can't help but laugh!
Xie Zhou was in a good mood. As long as his wife was with him, what did it matter if he sold barbecue?
Huan Yue said, "When His Majesty celebrates his birthday, Your Highness should go to the streets incognito for a few days and sell roasted meat. The money earned can be used to support His Majesty. Although this is not to experience the struggles of our ancestors, it can still be considered to experience the life of ordinary people."
He now dotes on her: "That's an interesting idea."
Huan Yue said smugly, "Whether your stall was overturned by a bully or you couldn't sell your barbecue, Your Highness should experience it for yourself."
Jin Dian nodded: "That's feasible. You'll have to go and keep an eye on Qing'e."
Huan Yue accepted the imperial decree.
Xie Zhou had many thoughts on his mind. However, he would try his best to fulfill his wife's wishes.
Xie Zhou said, "Your subject still needs more practice in roasting meat."
The emperor laughed heartily, sat down, and decreed: "Bring it here, let me try it first!"
Huan Yue sat down beside him and said, “Your Highness has such a great reputation. When you went out to sell roast meat, you said that the Emperor had tasted it and said it was delicious. The old lady selling beef patties next door said that people from the palace often come to buy my beef patties. The person selling sesame cakes over there said that so-and-so loves my sesame cakes the most.”
He didn't get to eat barbecue today, but his daughter-in-law made him laugh out loud.
Di Baose said from the side, "Suddenly I realize we all look so familiar?"
Huan Yue nodded: "In the end, we found out that His Highness's roasted meat was definitely an exaggeration."
Haha! Di Baose burst out laughing: "Only Your Highness is fake."
The present is joyful.
The eunuch brought over a plate of roast meat.
Di Baose stared intently.
Xie Zhou also became nervous.
Huan Yue glanced at him: "Be careful not to burn the other meats."
Xie Zhou assured her, "I will make sure Your Highness receives the money."
After finishing his meal, he nodded and said, "It's alright, but I doubt this will sell."
Di Shan chimed in, "In this prosperous and bustling era, there's plenty of delicious food. But you'll still have to put in some effort to sell your own goods."
