Yes, actually there is nothing to think about, just follow your heart.
Having an emperor as her father fall from the sky made her feel very warm, and she had no reason to refuse.
So she threw herself on his shoulders and said, "Aye."
The Imperial Concubine couldn't hold back her tears again. She went over and hugged her: "Mother, I'm here! Don't cry."
In fact, when she calmed down afterwards, she had wondered if Emperor Ming Yan had read the letter she wrote to Huo Qijing. But she had a scary nightmare that day, so it was not surprising that he wanted to read the letter. She had never thought about the possibility that the emperor would read almost every letter.
But at this moment, she just wanted to scream.
Later, even Tang Shiyue couldn't help crying for a long time. Emperor Ming Yan's eyes were red. He said to her: "Yue'er, this matter cannot be told to outsiders. How about I decree to recognize you as my adopted daughter?"
"No, no, no!" Tang Shiyue refused immediately: "No, I still have business to do, I still have many, many, many things to do! Please don't give me any identity, we can just communicate secretly!"
Emperor Ming Yan was so amused by her that he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "A good thing has become so unpleasant after you said that! What do you mean by having a secret relationship?"
"That's what I mean!" Tang Shiyue pulled his sleeves, shaking him and acting like a spoiled child: "Is it okay? Anyway, before I have enough fun, you must not recognize me, okay?"
...
...
Emperor Ming Yan tried to persuade her: "Admit it. With this important identity, won't it be more convenient for you to act?"
"Don't try to trick me," Tang Shiyue said, "When the time comes, there will be all kinds of rules and banquets. Maybe if I do something, some people will write me a letter to scold me, or scold you. Wouldn't that be asking for trouble? I won't even have time to do my own things!"
She glared at him: "When you asked me to come to Chang'an, you told me to do whatever I wanted! Humph!"
She hugged the Royal Concubine's neck, leaned on her and acted like a spoiled child: "Mother, look, Aye is going to go back on his word and lie to your precious daughter. Please help me talk to him!"
The Imperial Concubine wanted to cry and laugh at the same time because of what she said. She wiped her tears and looked at Emperor Ming Yan: "Let's ignore him and obey my Yue'er!"
Emperor Ming Yan said half-jokingly: "I have become the bad guy! I just wanted you two to see each other more often!"
The family cried, laughed, and talked for a long time before they quickly finished their meal and returned to the palace.
Emperor Mingyan and the Imperial Noble Consort talked for half the night, a rare occasion. Even when Emperor Mingyan went to court the next day, the Imperial Noble Consort was still smiling.
She was already extremely beautiful, and now that she was celebrating her wedding, she looked even more beautiful. Linlang smiled and congratulated her: "Your Highness, you have finally got what you wanted this time. You have finally found the little princess."
The Imperial Concubine smiled and said, "Do you think Yue'er and I look very similar?"
"More than that!" Linlang smiled and said, "Not only do they look alike, but they also have similar demeanors. When I took a quick look at her, I thought I saw what the queen looked like before she got married... And the little princess has a frank look in her eyes, a calm demeanor, and a very elegant demeanor..."
"That's right!" Amber couldn't help but say, "The little princess is wearing men's clothes and behaves elegantly. She is so graceful. The real phoenix and the fake daughter are so different!"
The Royal Concubine's smile faded slightly: "Does she often ask for an audience?"
Amber knew that she was asking about Yan Tingyue.
Yan Tingyue was ordered by the crown prince not to enter the palace without being summoned, so the badge was taken back. She still asks for an audience every now and then, but the royal concubine has already known the truth and of course has never seen her again.
Linlang said softly, "Your Majesty, please don't worry about her anymore. People like her... are not worth it."
"What's wrong?" The Imperial Concubine adjusted her hairpin and said, "What did you hear?"
Linlang hesitated, while Amber was more straightforward and said, "I have heard about it too. How many people in the palace don't know about it? It is said that every time Yan Tingyue asked for an audience and said no, she would get angry and curse at people when she got back to the car. There were several times when people heard it!"
The imperial concubine narrowed her eyes and asked, "Who are you scolding?"
"You scold the servants at the door for looking down on others, and you also scold..." She whispered: "You scold the prince for being lustful and losing his mind, and scold the queen for turning her face and not recognizing her..."
The Imperial Concubine snorted coldly: "How bold! She dares to scold the Crown Prince!"
Linlang said, "She is such an ungrateful person! The queen has been treating her well for so many years. If she could be even a little bit sincere towards the queen, we servants wouldn't feel so aggrieved for the queen."
The Imperial Concubine chuckled, and Amber glanced at her stealthily: "My Lady, there is really nothing to be angry about such a bold and arrogant fool."
"I am not angry," the Imperial Concubine sighed, "I summoned Meng Min to the palace that day. Meng Min once said that although she is now indifferent to Yan Tingyue, she has a clear conscience for the way she treated her when she first entered the palace. I am the same now. I have been kind and righteous to her for so many years, and I have a clear conscience."
When Tang Shiyue arrived in Chang'an City, the Crown Prince also got the news. After the court session, he came to see Emperor Mingyan and said that he wanted to see her.
Emperor Mingyan smiled and said, "Go and inform your mother. I have something else to do. Let's go in the afternoon."
The prince smiled and agreed, and asked someone to inform the princess.
Who knew that after lunch, Emperor Mingyan called him over and said with a smile: "Don't go today. I will go with your mother. You can go tomorrow."
The prince was surprised: "Father, why is this?"
Emperor Mingyan pointed at Gu Jiuxing with a smile, and Gu Jiuxing said with a smile: "The little princess sent someone to pass on a message, saying that the emperor and the imperial concubine are invited to dinner tonight, and she also specifically said... that the emperor must not tell Yandong that there is only enough food for three people, no more."
Prince: “…”
The prince could only smile and say, "Father, I don't eat much." Then he pretended to think for a moment and added, "Son, bring some food yourself? And bring a cook?"
Emperor Mingyan just smiled at him, and the prince sighed, "Father, I knew her first..."
Emperor Mingyan laughed out loud: "I don't care about this. Anyway, your mother and I are going. If you want to go, just follow us secretly!"
Emperor Ming Yan was very interested, so the father and son were forced to leave Chang'an City, one in front and one behind.
The peppers were almost ripe, and Tang Shiyue delivered them as soon as he arrived in the capital.
She was not a person who particularly liked spicy food, but she hadn't eaten it for a long time. Now when she saw the red peppers, her mind instantly flashed through Maoxuewang, boiled pork slices, stone pot fish, stir-fried pork with peppers... countless dishes, and her mouth was watering.
So she immediately sent Jiahe to deliver a message to Emperor Ming Yan, and prepared to make some boiled fish herself to satisfy her craving.
The Huo family’s farm is actually in a very good location and is very close to the capital city. It only takes a short while to get there after leaving the city gate.
Ding Xiaoyan is now the chief steward. He is wearing a long robe and is greeting people at the door. The carriage drives in. Emperor Ming Yan gets off the carriage and helps the imperial concubine, who is dressed as a commoner, down. Then he asks, "Ding Xiaoyan, where is your master?"
Ding Xiaoyan replied respectfully: "Master, take them and plant the other peppers. Just in case..." He coughed twice, and Emperor Ming Yan said: "Just say it directly!"
Ding Xiaoyan said, "If the emperor gets addicted to it, he can't skip a meal."
Emperor Ming Yan was both angry and amused. He turned around and took the Imperial Concubine's hand: "Let's go and see what the girl is doing."
The Crown Prince and Crown Princess also got off the carriage and followed from a distance.
