He instinctively raised his wrist to look, and seeing that it was completely bare, he realized that he was in the Ming Dynasty and there was no such thing as a watch.
Thinking of this, Li Jue helplessly shouted towards the door.
"Zhang Gui, what time is it now!"
"Your Highness, it is already late morning, almost noon!"
"What?"
"It's already this late!"
Upon hearing that he had slept until noon, Li Jue immediately got out of bed, quickly washed up with the help of eunuchs, and hurriedly headed out of the palace.
"Your Highness, you haven't eaten yet!"
Upon hearing this, Li Jue replied nonchalantly.
"My family's stalls are everywhere on the streets, how could I possibly go hungry!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Gui thought about it and agreed. He then stopped worrying and quickly followed Li Jue.
When the two arrived outside the palace, several vendors gathered around before Li Jue could even beckon.
"Eldest grandson, we have some freshly fried dough sticks here, would you like to try some?"
"Young Master, don't eat his, eat our own wontons!"
"My lord, our family's freshly steamed buns are quite good too. Please do us the honor of trying some!"
Li Jue was a little hungry, so he waved to the vendors.
"Give me a little of everything!"
Seeing that Li Jue was being so accommodating, everyone happily stopped the car, set up a table and chairs, and warmly invited Li Jue to sit down and enjoy the meal.
Li Jue had just sat down at the table when it was soon piled high with all sorts of delicious food.
"Zhang Gui, you should eat some too!"

Upon hearing this, Li Jue glared at Zhang Gui with displeasure.
"What?"
"Do you consider yourself a woman?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Gui blushed with embarrassment and sat down, his buttocks almost touching the ground.
Just as Li Jue and Zhang Gui were enjoying their meal, Xue Yong rushed over.
"Your Highness, something terrible has happened! The officials who originally agreed to move out are now refusing to do so, saying that His Majesty gave them three months to move out!"
Li Jue was so angry upon hearing this that he wanted to curse. Wasn't Li Er just making things worse? Why give them three months at a time like this!
"How many did you sell today?"
"Your Highness, four hundred sets have already been sold!"
"But at this rate, we won't have enough to sell in just two days!"
"Your Highness still needs to find a way to get those officials to vacate the houses!"
Li Jue frowned upon hearing this.
"What can I do about my father-in-law's promise to go out? Am I supposed to disobey the imperial decree?"
Upon hearing this, Xue Yong blinked and said...
"Your Highness, can't you think of a way to get those officials to move voluntarily?"
"voluntary?"
"Was it voluntary?"
