The servant left quickly and returned quickly.
When he returned, he not only brought pear syrup, but also tea and snacks...
Xie Zhi laughed and said, "You two must be hungry after reading all morning."
"Now that you've come to my territory, how could I let you leave hungry?"
Yun Chan: "..."
Yun Chan picked up the bowl of pear syrup, which was bigger than his face, and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."
After speaking, he scooped up a spoonful of pear syrup and put it in his mouth.
Xie Zhi grinned from ear to ear: "Eat up, don't be shy! This bowl full of pear syrup is all from my good intentions, you mustn't waste a single drop!"
Yun Chan: "..."
After finishing a huge bowl of pear syrup, Yun Chan felt a sharp pain in her stomach.
Yuan Yao didn't care. She grabbed a piece of osmanthus cake and slowly ate it while glancing around Xie Zhi's room.
Xie Zhi's room was quite different from the rooms of other people she had seen.
While other people's rooms are decorated with landscape paintings, his room is decorated with a map depicting the territory of the Great Qi Dynasty.
Various cold weapons can be seen everywhere in the room.
There were longswords, short knives, bows, spears...
Xie Zhi lay on the edge of the bed, grinning smugly: "These weapons are all ones I've used. Aren't they beautiful?"
What's so interesting about swords and knives?
The little kid's aesthetic sense is definitely different from hers.
Yuan Yao pursed her lips: "It's so-so."
"What do you mean by 'so-so'?" Xie Zhi laughed. "These weapons will all be with me in the future, protecting our country!"
Yuan Yao took a sip of tea, suppressing the sweetness of the osmanthus cake in her mouth, and said with a smile, "Well then, for the sake of the young master, I'll treat them as pretty!"
Xie Zhi shook his head and smiled.
Yuan Yao glanced at the time and stood up: "Thank you, I still need to go to the Marquis of Dingjun's residence. After returning to the palace, I also need to visit the Second Prince."
"Take good care of yourself first, I'll come see you another day!"
"Okay, go ahead." Xie Zhi said with a smile, "You can come to the palace to play another day, after I've recovered from my injuries."
"Mmm!" Yuan Yao smiled, her eyes crinkling.
Xie Zhi put down his teacup and stood up as well: "Your Highness, please take good care of yourself."
"Your Highness, please take care."
Xie Zhi smiled broadly.
Yun Chan nodded, and Chao Yuanyao reached out his hand.
Yuan Yao hesitated for a moment, but still took the initiative to place her hand in Yun Chan's palm.
When they reached the door, Yun Chan lifted her up, and she was easily carried out of the threshold.
"Huh?" Yuan Yao exclaimed with delight, "So, climbing over a threshold can be so effortless!"
After saying that, she skipped and hopped happily forward with her short legs.
Yun Chan took her hand and said calmly, "Run slowly, be careful not to fall."
"Okay!" Yuan Yao replied in a childish voice.
Inside the room, watching the departing figure, Xie Zhi smiled and raised an eyebrow: "This little Yun Chan is really interesting."
"I, the young master, tried to punish him, but he didn't utter a sound and endured it all..."
The Marquis of Dingjun's residence is very close to the Prince of Pingnan's residence.
After an incense stick had burned, the carriage stopped in front of the Marquis of Dingjun's residence.
Danqing carried the medicine and got off the carriage.
Upon seeing the carriage, the guards of the Marquis's residence hurried over.
Danqing said gently, "Princess and Prince Yunchan have come to visit Young Marquis Lin. Please inform them."
"The princess has arrived?" The guard glanced at the carriage. "Please wait a moment, young lady."
After saying that, the man had already run away with his spear.
Soon, a guard came out and said, "Miss, my young master is in a bad mood. He says he is too ashamed to see the princess right now. Please go back first."
Is she throwing a tantrum?
Yuan Yao lifted the carriage curtain and asked, "Is Lin Xuan's injury serious?"
The guard bowed, scratched his head, and said, "Reporting to the princess, my young lord has received twenty strokes of the cane on his backside, and it's all bruised and battered..."
Your butt got ripped open?
Yuan Yao shivered.
Lin Xuan, that brat, is extremely concerned about his image.
I suppose he injured his buttock and was too embarrassed to see people.
Yuan Yao did not force him.
She had Danqing hand the medicine over, and instructed, "Give the medicine to your young master, and tell him that Yunchan and I will come to see him another day."
The guard took the medicine, bowed, and said, "I will certainly pass on the message."
Yuan Yao nodded: "Let's go back to the palace."
Since Yuan Yao didn't get to see Lin Xuan, she returned to the palace relatively early.
Yun Chan took her books and calligraphy practice books and returned to Chaoyun Palace first.
Yuan Yao sent someone back to Qianhua Palace to inform them, and then went directly to Fengwu Palace.
When they arrived at Fengwu Palace, Huaiyao was also there.
Huaiyao seemed to have changed her personality, wearing a plain dress with the only red thing on her body being the handle of her whip.
Upon seeing Yuan Yao, Huai Rou came up and took her hand: "Yao'er, we heard you had an accident. Huai Yao and I were planning to bring you something to visit you."
Why have you come to Fengwu Palace today?
"I've come to see His Highness the Second Prince." Yuan Yao obediently let Huai Rou lead her, and asked, "Sister Huai Rou, was His Highness the Second Prince punished?"
“It’s more than just a punishment.” Huaiyao stroked the whip and said lazily, “You have to copy the Four Books and Five Classics all at once.”
“Ah…” Yuan Yao was stunned.
Jiang Chengyan's punishment was no less severe than hers!
We're both copying books, we're truly in the same boat!
She was somewhat puzzled: "Since the Second Prince is copying books, why doesn't he go to school?"
Huairou smiled and explained, "Chengyan caught a cold and didn't go to school. However, after taking the medicine, he's feeling much better."
"That's good." Yuan Yao breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought he got beaten up too."
"Also?" Huaiyao turned her head to look over: "Xie Zhi and Lin Xuan, they got beaten up?"
"Yeah, yeah! Both of them got beaten up!"
Yuan Yao recounted her visits to the Prince of Pingnan's residence and the Marquis of Dingjun's residence.
After hearing this, Huaiyao laughed heartily: "Hahaha! Serves you right!"
"Huaiyao," Huairou said softly.
Huaiyao snorted: "I knew they'd get a beating sooner or later, but I didn't expect it to come so late."
Thankfully, Yuan Yao was alright; otherwise, their injuries would have gone far beyond just a spanking!
Huairou said with a hint of helplessness, "Huaiyao, after school tomorrow, come with me to the Prince of Pingnan's residence to visit Young Master Xie..."
Yuan Yao did not stay long at Fengwu Palace.
After talking with Huairou and Huaiyao for a while, she returned to Qianhua Palace.
Before she even stepped through the gates of Qianhua Palace, Jing'er ran out excitedly: "Princess, you're finally back!"
Danqing held his hands and gently reprimanded, "Shouting and yelling like that is unbecoming!"
Jing'er stuck out her tongue: "Princess, something good has been brought in from outside the palace. Can you guess what it is?"
nice one?
Yuan Yao asked curiously, "What is it?"
"Guess!" Jing'er coaxed.
Yuan Yao blinked in confusion.
Generally, items transported directly from outside the palace to Qianhua Palace were either brought by Yipinlou or procured by Sishichun...
Yuan Yao looked at Jing'er and guessed, "Is it fruit? Or a fruit tree?"
"Princess, you're so clever!" Jing'er clapped her hands and exclaimed, "It's pomegranates! Two whole carriages full!"
"Pomegranate?"
Yuan Yao was overjoyed.
She lifted her skirt and waved, "Sister Danqing, let's go take a look!"
Iced pomegranate juice, pomegranate yogurt, pomegranate wine...
She's here!
As usual, some pomegranates were sent to each palace, while Yuan Yao kept the rest for herself.
When she went to Yong'an Palace to deliver pomegranates, the emperor didn't let her leave and asked, "Yuan Yao, how many of these fruits do you have left?"
Yuan Yao's eyelids twitched: "There's... quite a lot left..."
"Is that so?" The emperor rarely showed a smile.
Yuan Yao: "..."
The emperor's smile meant he was about to trick her.
Sure enough, the next second, the emperor said, "The autumn hunt will be held in half a month."
"You're so clever! Use these pomegranates to make a delicious dish as a prize for the first day of the autumn hunt."
Yuan Yao: "???"
