Yuan Yao was taken aback by the question.
Yun Chan?
Is she attached to Yun Chan?
That little tantrum is just from a little kid!
She only took extra care of him because he was handsome and sickly.
Who wouldn't want to talk to a good-looking person more?
For example, the Nine Thousand Years Old!
Thinking about it, Yuan Yao smiled and said, "Father, are you jealous?"
"Nonsense. Why would I be jealous of a sickly little thing?" The Ninth Prince pinched her cheek: "Sit still, it's time to go back to the palace."
Yuan Yao nestled in his arms and laughed happily.
Upon returning to the palace, Danqing immediately ordered food to be served.
The Ninth Prince casually tasted a few bites before returning to the Moonflower Palace to catch up on sleep.
After the meal, Danqing said, "Princess, Yu'er said that the sample of the thing you asked her to have made has been delivered."
"Really?" Yuan Yao's eyes lit up.
Her plates and dishes!
Her cookware!
She can finally focus on her career!
Yuan Yao ran to the kitchen and found Yu'er.
Yu'er is instructing her young apprentices on how to brew rice wine...
Upon seeing Yuan Yao, Yu'er said happily, "Princess, you've come at the perfect time. Please try this rice wine and tell me how it tastes."
On the long table were several small porcelain bowls, each probably made by a different person.
Yuan Yao happily said, "Okay, I'll try it!"
Yu'er picked up a small bowl: "This is osmanthus flavored."
Yuan Yao scooped up a little and tasted it with the tip of her tongue: "This one has too strong an osmanthus flavor, overpowering the wine flavor, and it's not sweet enough."
The young palace maid who made the rice wine blushed and said, "This servant will remember..."
Yu'er picked up another small bowl: "This one has a peach flavor."
Yuan Yao tasted it and said, "This doesn't taste like peach blossoms. There weren't enough flowers, so the flavor is a bit weak."
"I will definitely control the amount next time..." another maid whispered.
Yuan Yao smiled and said, "It's alright."
Fearing that Yuan Yao would get drunk, Yu'er didn't dare let her taste too much, but instead took her to look at the tableware.
Yu'er said, "These plates and dishes are all made of the finest porcelain. The size and patterns are quite good in my opinion."
And this cookware, I tried it out as soon as I got it, and it's very easy to use!
Yuan Yao turned around and said, "Since you think it's okay, let's make it a deal."
Yu'er smiled: "This servant will go and talk to the procurement department right away."
"Wait a minute," Yuan Yao said. "Sister Yu'er, I'll draw a design for you. Later, I'll have the purchasing department take it to them and have them print our Si Shi Chun logo on the plates and dishes..."
Yuan Yao didn't return to Yuehua Palace until very late after being busy in the kitchen.
On the bed, the Ninth Prince was fast asleep.
After washing up, she tiptoed into bed and slipped under the covers.
As soon as she lay down, the Ninth Prince reached out and pulled her into his arms.
Yuan Yao: "..."
I dare not move.
She lay there obediently, closed her eyes, and inhaled the fragrance emanating from the Ninth Prince before quickly falling asleep.
The next day, Yuan Yao was dragged out of bed when the sun was high in the sky.
The Ninth Prince, dressed in a thin undergarment, said, "Little Yao'er, get up."
Yuan Yao was being carried, her little hands and feet limp and weak, and she shrank back, saying softly, "Daddy, let Yao'er sleep a little longer!"
The school building of the National Academy was destroyed and has not yet been fully repaired, so she doesn't study there!
Why don't you sleep a little longer?
Suddenly, I felt a light tap on my forehead.
The Ninth Prince chuckled: "Little dumpling, no sleeping in! Hurry up, get up."
"Ah!" Yuan Yao exclaimed softly, opening her eyes.
The Ninth Prince asked, "Awake now?"
Yuan Yao yawned weakly and said, "Awake..."
The Ninth Prince chuckled lightly: "Danqing, prepare breakfast."
Soon, Danqing led his people to breakfast.
Silverfish porridge, steamed egg with minced meat and tofu, delicate crystal meat buns, and a few light side dishes...
Yuan Yao ate until her little belly was round and full.
After finishing his meal, the Ninth Prince asked, "Have you finished eating?"
"We're all stuffed!" Yuan Yao replied.
The Ninth Prince was in a good mood: "Yesterday, didn't you say you wanted your father to rest? Today, your father will stay with you for the whole day, how about it?"
"Really?" Yuan Yao asked.
How could a busy man like the Ninth Prince have time to spend a day with her as a parent?
The Ninth Prince chuckled: "Could it be that there are fakes out there?"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Yao happily asked, "Then, Father, shall we take Yao'er out of the palace?"
"As you wish."
The father and daughter changed into more understated light-colored clothes, rode in a carriage, and left the palace.
On the carriage, Danqing said, "Your Highness, the manager of Yipinlou has sent word that the princess's things have arrived."
Yipinlou?
Yuan Yao searched her memory for a long time before she remembered that she had asked the shopkeeper to help her transport cherries and mulberries!
So much has happened lately!
She'd completely forgotten about it!
The Ninth Prince lowered his head and asked, "To Yipinlou?"
Yuan Yao nodded: "Go!"
So the carriage headed straight for Yipinlou.
At this time, Yipinlou is already open to customers.
As usual, the carriage stopped at the back gate.
As soon as the father and daughter entered, the shopkeeper greeted them with a smile: "Master, young master, you've finally arrived!"
Yuan Yao looked at the shopkeeper and asked happily, "Uncle Shopkeeper, have my mulberries arrived?"
The shopkeeper chuckled and said, "Exactly!"
The group walked together toward the warehouse.
As they walked, the shopkeeper said, "There was a heavy rain in the south, and the fruit had to travel a long way to get here, which caused some delays..."
I heard that the princess wanted these fruits, so the brothers over there also found some things that weren't available in the capital and brought them over..."
As they spoke, they arrived at the warehouse.
Yipinlou's warehouse was built underground. It was dark, cold, but dry, and there were large blocks of ice inside for cooling purposes.
In the warehouse, there were baskets of red cherries, bayberries, and mulberries, as well as emerald green plums and green plums, and golden apricots, loquats, and mangoes...
Yuan Yao's mouth was practically watering!
What is happiness?
Happiness is being able to eat fresh fruit from thousands of miles away in ancient times when transportation was inconvenient!
The shopkeeper chuckled and said, "Young master, besides these, they also sent over some other rare and unusual items."
"What is it?" Yuan Yao looked away from the fruit basket.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "They are some plants."
plant?
Yuan Yao was shocked.
The shopkeeper raised his hand: "Master, young master, please."
In the courtyard, Yuan Yao saw several bundles of plants wrapped in burlap sacks.
Yuan Yao walked to one of the sacks and took a closer look.
Rose seedlings!
They're all in bloom!
The shopkeeper smiled and introduced, "These were brought back from the southern border. They thought the flowers were beautiful, so they thought they would bring a few plants for the young master, so that he can both admire them and eat them."
The Ninth Prince walked to Yuan Yao's side, raised his hand, and plucked a bright red flower: "Is this flower edible?"
"Yes, that's right!" the shopkeeper said with a smile.
The Ninth Prince smiled, a hint of amusement in his eyes: "I like it."
Because of his simple "I like it," the walls of Qianhua Palace were later covered with all kinds of roses...
However, that's a story for another time.
Yuan Yao took the beautiful rose from the Ninth Prince's hand and said in a childish voice, "Daddy, Yao'er will use this flower to make you something to eat!"
