"Let's have a feast."

The emperor held Yangyang in his arms and said lightly.

Eunuch Li nodded slightly and sang loudly to the outside of the palace: "Let's have the feast!"

As his voice fell, the palace maids came in one after another carrying dishes.

Everyone was used to the various delicacies at the palace banquets and had no expectations for them.

Yangyang is different.

She stared at the palace maid eagerly, her saliva almost dripping out.

However, when she saw the palace maid bringing her the cold-mixed Houttuynia cordata and fried locusts, she felt unwell.

[No, I'm looking forward to the feast, and you're giving me this? ]

[These locusts look familiar. They look exactly like the ones I hid!]

[No wonder the locusts I hid in the woodshed disappeared, they were all here! ]

[Grandfather Emperor, you used my locusts to entertain all the officials. You are such a dog! ]

The emperor felt guilty when he heard her thoughts.

He didn't steal these locusts.

It was Yun Wanrou who handed it to him personally.

Even though Yun Wanrou did this, he would still find a way to get the locusts here.

But doesn't he have the chance to do it himself?

Yun Wanrou, who was sitting at the lower right, also felt guilty.

She could feel the gaze of Yangyang.

She stared at the dish in front of her, unable to even lift her head.

So this is how it feels when you do something wrong and get caught!

When the ministers saw the dishes served on the table, they were all stunned.

They ate Houttuynia cordata for several days in a row and were about to vomit.

I finally made it to the palace banquet, thinking I could slow down my appetite.

I didn’t expect that the dish at the palace banquet would be Houttuynia cordata.

In addition to this thing, there is another one that is even more disgusting than Houttuynia cordata.

The emperor is trying to kill them!

General Zhou stared at the locusts in front of him and frowned.

He hesitated for a long time, then suddenly stepped forward and knelt on one knee in front of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I don't know what I have done wrong. Please explain it to me!"

"What does General Zhou mean by this?"

The emperor looked at him, his eyes filled with confusion.

It was such a peaceful palace banquet, why did General Zhou suddenly kneel down?

Hearing the emperor's question, General Zhou frowned even more tightly.

"Your Majesty made me eat insects. Isn't that... a punishment?"

"Nonsense!" the emperor shouted, "There are locusts in front of me, too. Am I going to punish myself as well?"

"this……"

General Zhou's eyes turned and he felt that the emperor was right.

But he still didn't understand and looked up at the emperor.

"Then why did the Emperor..."

“Ahem, I went to the Grand Tutor’s Mansion before and tried the fried locusts. I couldn’t forget this dish.

I think that sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone. If I have something good, I will share it with you, my dear ministers."

The emperor raised his hand and stroked his beard with a smile.

Yangyang looked up at him, her eyes full of scrutiny.

[Grandpa Emperor, are you not ashamed of lying? You have never tasted locusts before in the Grand Tutor's Mansion! ]

emperor:"……"

This child is good in every way except that he always tells the truth.

Anyway, he could hear her thoughts, so he might as well poison her and make her mute!

The emperor only dared to think about it in his heart but did not dare to actually do it.

After all, although Yangyang is a child, he is not an ordinary child.

Beside her, there was a phoenix.

If he made her angry, the phoenix would spit out a ball of fire that could burn down his palace.

Thinking of this, the emperor looked at General Zhou who was kneeling on the ground and waved at him.

"General Zhou, stop kneeling and get up to eat!"

General Zhou: “…”

No, he was wrong.

As long as he could skip meals, he would be willing to kneel here for the whole afternoon.

"General Zhou, if you don't get up, you'll be disobeying my order!"

The emperor deliberately lowered his voice to make it sound calmer and colder.

Hearing the words "disobey the order", General Zhou quickly got up from the ground.

Seeing that admitting their mistakes was useless, the others just gritted their teeth and ate.

The entire Jiaolan Hall was filled with the sound of retching.

Qin Simian ate while staring at Yun Wanrou.

If the emperor had not eaten this thing in the Grand Tutor's Mansion, why would they have to suffer along with him?

All this was the fault of the Grand Tutor's Mansion and Yun Wanrou, she would never forgive them!

Amidst the sounds of retching, Yun Wanrou calmly ate Houttuynia cordata.

She didn't understand why everyone reacted like this to something so delicious.

The virtuous concubine looked at the Houttuynia cordata in front of her, then turned to look at Yun Wanrou, her eyes filled with confusion.

"Wanrou, don't you think this thing tastes fishy? How can you still eat it?"

“Is it fishy?” Yun Wanrou blinked: “I think it tastes delicious!”

Concubine Xian: “…”

Wanrou's character is still too weak.

I clearly don’t think it tastes good, but I’m still forcing myself to eat it.

She shook her head and sighed.

"Wanrou, you don't have to force yourself in front of me."

Yun Wanrou was stunned for a moment: "But, I really think it's delicious."

Concubine Xian: “…”

I don’t understand and it’s very hard to accept!

A palace banquet made everyone question their lives.

After the banquet, the emperor was satisfied.

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he looked at the ministers with a smile.

“It is my great blessing to be able to share this feast with you all today.

But I see that you, my dear ministers, don’t seem to like today’s palace banquet!”

“Don’t dare!”

"Your Majesty is mistaken. We like it very much!"

Everyone waved their hands, feeling distressed.

The emperor knew that although they said they didn't dare, they had actually been cursing in their hearts for the whole afternoon.

However, he didn't care about the scolding.

His eyes slowly swept over everyone.

"I know that Houttuynia cordata is not tasty, and locusts are even harder to swallow.

I invite you all to share the feast today, hoping that you all can remember the bitter past and think of the sweet past. "

Hearing this, Yangyang raised her head and looked at him curiously.

[So the Emperor's grandfather didn't hold this palace banquet for selfish reasons? ]

[Is it really me who misunderstood the Emperor's grandfather? 】

emperor:"……"

Feeling guilty, especially guilty.

So this is what it feels like to be caught talking nonsense in all seriousness.

After hearing the emperor's words, all the ministers stood up and kowtowed to him.

"The emperor cares about the people and the country. It is a blessing for the people and the country!"

"Your Majesty, you really have good intentions towards us!"

"Your Majesty is wise and benevolent!"

"Your Majesty is wise and benevolent..."

In the Jiaolan Palace, everyone shouted in unison to the emperor.

The emperor wiped the sweat from his forehead and felt a little uneasy.

In the past, when he faced the ministers, no matter what they said, he was always very calm.

But today, there was just a little baby in his arms, but he was no longer calm.

The little baby looked at him with eyes that were black and bright.

It seemed as if everything was under her gaze and nothing could escape her gaze.

In front of her, he felt like he was naked and she could see through him!
