Qin Chuyu had a great time at Renshou Palace and had dinner there too.
He played so joyfully that when Gu Jiao called him and Little Jing Kong in for dinner, he readily agreed.
But the moment he entered the dining hall and saw Empress Dowager Zhuang sitting majestically at the table, he was so scared that his legs almost gave out and his butt sat on the ground!
That’s right. Although he had become a lot daring after attending Imperial Academy, he was still a scaredy-cat in front of the great demoness Empress Dowager Zhuang.
Empress Dowager Zhuang didn't even look at the chubby little boy as she sat calmly in her own chair.
Gu Jiao and Little Jing Kong had long been used to her demeanor and didn't find her intimidating at all. Qin Chuyu, on the other hand, felt his legs tremble and stomach churn, thinking that this was much scarier than being kidnapped by a human trafficker!
Gu Jiao took Qin Chuyu and Little Jing Kong to wash their hands and then sat them down at the table.
Little Jing Kong still had his own special chair.
Qin Chuyu was eight years old and could reach the table. He sat between Empress Dowager Zhuang and Little Jing Kong, but he was too scared to even move his chopsticks.
Whenever someone from Bishui Alley came by, the small kitchen would cook dishes according to their taste, and when Little Jing Kong was there, they made the dishes look fun and cute.
Looking at the little white and tender buns in front of him, Qin Chuyu's mouth watered uncontrollably.
The steamed buns were filled with sweet bean paste that was finely mashed and had a dense texture, melting in his mouth as if it would disappear.
A small amount of cheese was also added, giving it a faint but distinct milky aroma. contemporary romance
Gu Jiao taught the small kitchen at Renshou Palace how to make these buns.
This couldn't be found in any other palace.
After just one bite, Qin Chuyu was completely in love.
The little buns were just an appetizer. There were also small carp made from oranges, little swallows made from quail eggs, a milky pudding served in a strange pumpkin, and the one that conquered all the little cubs in Gu Jiao's previous life… Meat patty with plum sauce.
"Wow!" Qin Chuyu was amazed! He loved everything he tasted!
He had never eaten such adorable food before!
Wuwuwu!
It was so delicious!
He was going to cry!
How could Qin Chuyu still remember that the Empress Dowager he feared the most was sitting next to him? He was simply too busy eating!
Qin Chuyu couldn't stop eating.
It must be said that this little chubby boy was making a bit of a scene, but the way he ate gave people an appetite.
Empress Dowager Zhuang glanced at him but didn't say anything.
After a long meal, both children were full. Actually, Qin Chuyu could eat a few more bites, but Gu Jiao was worried that he would overeat, so she told him she would make more for him next time.
"Can I come again next time?" He blinked his eyes and asked.
Of course, he was asking Empress Dowager Zhuang. fr(e)ewebnov(e)l.com
Little Jing Kong and Gu Jiao couldn't answer on her behalf.
A sudden silence in the air was the most frightening.
The palace maids and eunuchs all kept their heads down and didn't dare to make a sound under the current atmosphere.
Empress Dowager Zhuang and the Huaqing Palace had a clear boundary. Would she allow the Seventh Prince to come to her place again and again?
The last time someone from the Huaqing Palace came here, something happened accidentally...
Everyone kept calm on the surface but carefully pricked up their ears.
"En." Empress Dowager Zhuang answered indifferently.
Little Jing Kong patted his little friend's shoulder and exclaimed, "That’s great! Grandaunt agreed! You can come and play with me often from now on!"
"Yay!" Qin Chuyu got excited and accidentally knocked over a bowl of soup on the table.
Empress Dowager Zhuang got soaked in the soup and it dripped down her body.
The palace maids and eunuchs changed their expressions at once!
Eunuch Qin hurriedly stepped forward, "Empress Dowager!"
After eating for so long, the soup had already cooled down, it was just that being splashed all over like this made one feel dirty and uncomfortable.
Eunuch Qin quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe Empress Dowager Zhuang's face, but found that it wasn’t enough, "This servant shall help Your Majesty change your clothes!"
Qin Chuyu’s face turned white with fear, "Imperial, imperial, imperial grandmother..."
She had heard that his imperial grandmother ate people!
Not only that, but she also slaughtered people!
"It's fine, don't make a fuss." Empress Dowager Zhuang pushed Eunuch Qin's hand away and stood up calmly without anyone's support, "Aijia will go change her clothes."
Qin Chuyu was stunned.
Was that all?
Imperial grandmother didn't get angry? She didn't punish him?
As the night deepened, Qin Chuyu finally came out of Renshou Palace with her personal eunuch.
Eunuch Su, who had been waiting nearby for a while, walked up to him and held his small shoulder, "My little ancestor, are you okay? Why did you go to Renshou Palace?"
Eunuch Su was Empress Xiao's trusted eunuch.
Qin Chuyu entering Renshou Palace wasn’t done in secret, so the news naturally reached Empress Xiao's side. However, Empress Xiao received the news relatively late and she only thought that Qin Chuyu had gone to the East Palace.
Eunuch Su grabbed Qin Chuyu's wrist and said, "The Empress is worried sick about the prince! Hurry up and follow this servant to report to Her Majesty that you are safe!"
Qin Chuyu was pulled along and asked in confusion, "Why is imperial mother worried about me?"
Eunuch Su sighed, "Why else? Why did the Seventh Prince choose to go to Renshou Palace, of all places? Don’t you know that you’re not supposed to go there?”
It wasn’t surprising that Empress Xiao had warned Qin Chuyu to stay away from Renshou Palace. Over a decade ago, it was because she hadn’t looked after the young Xiao Heng properly that he had mistakenly wandered near Renshou Palace and was almost poisoned to death.
Eunuch Su glared at the young eunuch behind Qin Chuyu and rebuked, "Why didn't you stop your master from going to Renshou Palace? I'll deal with you later!"
Qin Chuyu frowned and said, "Don't punish Little Dezi, it was my decision to go there. Would he dare to stop me?"
Eunuch Su replied, "But he should have at least informed the Empress."
Qin Chuyu solemnly said, "I didn't let him pass the news to you! If he did, you would take me away and not let me play with imperial grandmother! Imperial grandmother is not as terrible as you said!"
“What’s terrible?”
The Emperor's smiling voice came from not far away.
Every time he saw this little chubby boy, the Emperor's mood would be lifted.
"Your Majesty!" Eunuch Su turned his head and saluted the Emperor in the sedan, and then bowed to Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing in another sedan behind the Emperor, "Imperial Concubine Dowager."
Little Dezi also followed suit.
Qin Chuyu called out, "Imperial father!"
"En." The Emperor waved his hand.
"Lowered the sedan." Eunuch Wei instructed the sedan bearers while shaking the horsetail whisk.
Both sedan chairs slowly touch the ground.
Qin Chuyu pounced on his imperial father.
The Emperor was almost knocked over by the chubby little guy, he smiled and turned to signal to him, "Are you not going to pay your respects to Grandmother Jing?"
"Oh!" Qin Chuyu stepped out of the Emperor's arms and walked to the side of the other sedan, making a salutation towards the sedan in front of him, "Greetings to Grandmother Jing!"
"Really obedient." Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing smiled gently and his doting eyes fell on his flushed little face, "Where have you been today? You seem very happy."
Qin Chuyu said straightforwardly, "I went to Renshou Palace! I met imperial grandmother!"
Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing looked slightly astonished.
The Emperor's face sank, "What did you say? Where have you just been?"
Qin Chuyu shrank his neck and answered, "Ren, Renshou Palace."
His imperial father’s eyes suddenly became so terrifying!
"Who told you to go to Renshou Palace?" The Emperor asked in a cold voice.
“I, I went there by myself." Qin Chuyu took two steps back in fear.
"Come over here to grandmother’s side." Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing stretched out her hand to Qin Chuyu.
Qin Chuyu was scared to death by his own father, and like seeing a life-saving straw, he immediately plunged into Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing's arms without hesitation.
Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing held him gently and said to the Emperor in a solemn tone, "Your Majesty, don't scare him. He didn't mean it."
Qin Chuyu murmured something in Imperial Concubine Dowager Jing's arms.
The Emperor frowned, "What did you say?"
Perhaps having someone backing him up, Qin Chuyu's courage finally grew in front of his imperial father, and he plucked up the courage to say, "I said imperial grandmother is not bad at all! Why doesn't imperial father let me go see her!?"
