"Yes, there is much less work to do. I finally have help." Zhao Qingrui returned to the East Palace leisurely.
"I haven't been to Shanglin Garden for a long time. I don't know how it's going there. I won't be having lunch in the East Palace for a while. Lu Zhi, please prepare the carriage for the trip. I want to go for a stroll in Shanglin Garden." Zhao Qingrui looked at Lu Zhi and said.
"promise."
The carriage was quickly ready, and Zhao Qingrui took only Lu Zhi to Shanglin Garden.
At this time, the Qinzheng Palace was a palace that Zhao Qingrui specially renamed from a side hall of the Zhangtai Palace and used for Wei Xi and the other three.
