Jiang Jingyue nodded without hesitation. She really didn't like eating this, and now that she didn't have to eat it, she was more than happy to accept it.
She was so excited that she immediately reached out and grabbed Jiugongting's hand, then pulled him up.
"Your Majesty, please come with me. I know a place with delicious food. Although the place is simple, the food is really good."
Jiang Jingyue took Jiugongting to eat at a roadside stall. They simply cooked a bowl of noodles with a few pieces of meat floating on top.
The amount of meat was pitifully small; Jiugongting looked at it and felt it wasn't even enough to fill a gap between his teeth.
However, seeing that the little woman seemed very happy, Jiugongting didn't say anything more.
He doesn't care as long as his little woman is happy.
Although he would never have stepped into this place before, after accompanying the young woman to this place this time, he suddenly felt that this place was not as bad as he had imagined.
"Little girl, come more often if you like it. You've been coming a lot lately, so I've added an extra egg for you. I hope you like it."
When Jiang Jingyue heard this, she immediately burst out laughing.
"Thank you, Uncle. I really like it, but it's really too much trouble for you."
Jiang Jingyue came to this place by chance. After arriving, she was surprised to find that the food here was quite delicious and suited her taste.
So whenever she has a craving, she comes to this place to eat.
She's probably come here so often that everyone selling things here knows her.
Seeing her like this, Jiu Gongting couldn't help but ask her a question.
"Xiaoyue, do you come here often? Why do all the people here know you?"
Jiang Jing nodded with a grin, "Yes, the food here is delicious, so I come here often. You should try it."
Jiang Jingyue wanted to call out to him, but for a moment she didn't know how to do it.
Seeing Jiang Jingyue like this, Jiugongting couldn't help but want to tease her.
"Xiaoyue, do you not know what to call me? Just call me husband, I really like hearing that."
As Jiugongting expected, he saw the little woman blush again as soon as he finished speaking.
Jiugongting especially enjoyed seeing the way a young woman blushed, because in his eyes, such a young woman was simply too adorable.
"Xiaoyue, why do you blush so easily? You're so cute like that."
Well, Jiu Gongting noticed that the little woman's face wasn't so red when he wasn't praising her, but it turned even redder after he praised her like that.
Looking at the adorable little woman, Jiu Gongting couldn't help but reach out and pinch her flushed cheeks.
Her fair and tender skin felt really good to the touch, which immediately reminded him of the wonderful night they spent together.
As he thought about it, his body couldn't help but react, and he couldn't control himself.
If it weren't for the fact that now is not the right time, he might have wanted to take the young woman right there and then.
Jiugongting felt that going out with this little woman was not a wise decision, mainly because she kept testing his willpower, and if this continued, he really wouldn't be able to take it anymore.
After Jiu Gongting and the others had eaten their fill, they sent Jiang Jingyue back to the Jiang Marquis's residence. When he returned to the palace, he took several cold showers to calm the heat in his body.
He himself didn't know why, but ever since he met the young woman, he suddenly lost interest in the concubines in the harem.
He used to occasionally visit the harem to vent his frustrations, but now he has absolutely no interest in it.
Just then, a woman's charming voice came from outside.
"Your Majesty, I heard that you have been going out of the palace to handle matters recently. You must be very tired. I have specially arranged for someone to prepare some silver soup for you so that you can nourish your body."
The emperor recognized the voice; it was Consort De's voice. He had doted on Consort De for a while, but eventually grew tired of her.
Now that he heard she was coming, Jiu Gongting's first reaction was that he didn't want to see her.
The door opened and Su De walked in. As soon as he entered, he felt a chill.
Su De immediately came to Jiu Gongting's side and reached out to touch his water.
"Oh dear, Your Majesty, what's wrong with you? Why are you taking such a cold shower? In this weather, what if you get sick?"
"Your Majesty, please get up quickly. Consort De is already waiting outside. Go out and have something hot to drink to warm yourself up."
"No need, I don't want to see her. Let her go! I'll be fine, you don't need to worry."
Even though the Emperor said so, Su De was still worried.
On such a cold day, the Emperor is taking a cold bath; he needs to quickly have someone prepare some ginger soup.
Ginger soup can help the emperor get rid of the cold.
Jiugongting tidied up and prepared to go to sleep, but as soon as he lay down, his mind was filled with images of the little woman, making it impossible for him to fall asleep.
When Consort De, who was outside, heard that the Emperor did not want to see her, her face immediately turned ugly.
She didn't know why, but she had a bad feeling about it.
She felt that the emperor's frequent departures from the palace must be for some reason.
Moreover, she had a feeling that this matter was definitely related to women.
Otherwise, the emperor certainly wouldn't have stopped summoning his concubines for so long.
The emperor was a man of great desires; he would usually summon a concubine to serve him every two days.
However, during this period of time, the emperor did not summon any of his concubines, so Consort De could guess that something must have gone wrong.
Although they had always lived in the palace and were favored by the emperor, she herself did not know why she could not bear the emperor's heir.
Consort De had already had the imperial physician examine her thoroughly, and there was nothing wrong with her, but she just couldn't conceive.
Consort De had also suspected that the problem might lie with the Emperor, but she only dared to think about it secretly and never dared to say it aloud.
Actually, it's not just Consort De who's anxious; Jiugongting himself is also worried. He suspects it's his own problem, but the imperial physicians have examined him and haven't been able to find anything wrong.
He was initially full of hope, but later on, he lost all hope of having children.
He has already started looking for a suitable candidate, to see which scion of a prominent family seems intelligent and quick-witted, so that he can bring him directly into the palace and groom him as his heir.
