"Princess, the Emperor sent someone to call you and County Lord over. He said that they prepared food for you and that it was the fruit of a long journey!"

Wen Shuyu thought back to her previous life and found that there were indeed fresh fruits to be tribute at this time of year. Other than the ones that were sent to Great Empress Dowager's Tzu Ning Palace and the empress dowager's Kunning Palace, there was only the emperor's Qianqing Palace.

This was the only new thing in the palace at this time of the year. If it was the Wen Shuyu of the past, she would have probably run over to Lou Yiyang happily.

However, Wen Shuyu, who lived a second time, was extremely disgusted with the Emperor. Although she did not want to go to Qianqing Palace, she could not let Lou Yiyang's kind invitation go.

"Tell them that County Lord and I will be there in a moment." Her voice was cold, and Tian Lan could tell that it wasn't the same as usual.

After Qian Cao had retreated, Tian Lan pulled Wen Shuyu's hand with some doubt. "Linglong, in the past, didn't you love this dish the most? You went to two palaces to eat it every single time, and you even announced that you were greedy, causing Great Empress Dowager to be so anxious that you wouldn't be greedy anymore? How come you don't seem to like it now?" Could it be something to do with the Emperor? "

Tian Lan said the last few words carefully into Wen Shuyu's ear.

As for the emperor, although she didn't like him, she couldn't do anything about it now. Moreover, she still had to investigate the matter of Lou Yiyang's bed, so she couldn't let anyone catch her.

She stood up and took Tian Lan's hand. With the usual smile on her face, she said, "It's fine. Don't worry. Just do what you need to do. Let's go and have a taste."

Under the escort of the palace maids, they quickly arrived at Qianqing Palace's garden.

The palace maids bowed and retreated to the side. Wen Shuyu and Tian Lan also bowed. The little emperor hurried over to support Wen Shuyu.

"Why is Linglong so polite today? Usually when she sees me, she's always short. I don't know what's so good about this, but when did I ever offend Linglong? I can use these new things to calm Linglong down." Lou Yiyang put on an act, the current him really did not dare to offend Wen Shuyu.

Wen Shuyu, whose face was welcoming the Emperor, giggled. "Your majesty, how could there be such a thing? Linglong is such a big deal. She's afraid of Great Empress Dowager's scolding and she's already being polite. I'm going to have a meal with Jing Shu."

"You! How could Great Empress Dowager bear to reprimand you? Come quickly." Lou Yiyang went forward to pull her.

Wen Shuyu cleverly dodged Lou Yiyang's hand without leaving a trace, took a quick step forward and picked up the fresh fruit on the table, then handed it to Tian Lan. Her actions were smooth and Lou Yiyang didn't see anything, so he could only bitterly withdraw his hand.

After that, she sat down like a little kid. Wen Shuyu casually picked a few dishes with her hands and ate a little. Then, she made an excuse to leave as her stomach was not feeling well.

"Your majesty, Linglong feels a bit uncomfortable in her stomach, so she and Tian Lan will head back first. Don't let Great Empress Dowager know about this, or else she will definitely blame Your Majesty for blaming me for being greedy." Wen Shuyu's weak look convinced Lou Yiyang. He knew that she was physically and was worried that Great Empress Dowager would scold her, so he didn't dare to stay any longer. He quickly ordered someone to send Wen Shuyu back to the side hall.

Tian Lan, who had a worried expression, supported Wen Shuyu and helped her put on her embroidered cloak. They hurried back on their way back.

Even after the emperor had left, Tian Lan was still worried. She was wondering if she should call the imperial physician, when Wen Shuyu immediately sat up.

"Jing Shu, I'm fine. I'm just thinking about the matter of dealing with Ling Xi." Wen Shuyu turned to look at Qian Cao.

"Qian Cao, is Ling Xi back yet?"

"Reporting to Princess, Ling Xi hasn't come back yet." Ling Xi jogged into the side hall as soon as she finished her words.

Only then did Ling Xi speak out. "Reporting to Princess, we've found a palace maid called Sophora Flower, it's from Qianqing Palace, but she hasn't been employed for a long time, so I made a trip to the Internal Affairs Bureau to look for Eunuch Li to check on her. She's in the register and is also in charge of the monthly tribute, but we haven't seen any other people until now.

Ling Xi did things very quickly, and she also played with her little wrists. Wen Shuyu was still very confident in her ability to do things.

Wen Shuyu pondered for a moment. It seemed that there was indeed something wrong with the Sophora Flower. In that case, she might be the future Ying Su!

It was just a woman, why did the Emperor go through so much trouble to conceal himself, and why did he want her to appear out of thin air? There must be something shameful!

Wen Shuyu slammed the table heavily, scaring Ling Xi. She had noticed that their princess seemed to have a violent temper recently.

After stabilizing her emotions, Wen Shuyu then slowly spoke out: "Ling Xi, I'll leave this matter to you. I want you to continue to ask about this Scholartree Flower, it's best if you can find her. But since she's from the Qianqing Palace, you have to be even more careful. She repeatedly warned Ling Xi before finally allowing her to leave.

Lou Yiyang didn't dare to find Wen Shuyu for the whole day because he was afraid that she would really be sick. Great Empress Dowager directly blamed him, but she also sent a palace maid, Hibiscus, to greet him. She even sent a few pots of blooming Ganoderma Orchids over to ask if Wen Shuyu was well, which also made her happy.

In the evening, Great Empress Dowager summoned Wen Shuyu and Tian Lan to have dinner together. The two of them went straight to the greenhouse. Recently, it had been raining heavily, so Great Empress Dowager and Wei Rui usually stayed in the greenhouse.

"Greetings to Royal Grandmother. Royal Grandmother has been well for a long time. Linglong didn't see Royal Grandmother for a long time, so her heart is already filled with anxiety!" Wen Shuyu smiled as she walked to Great Empress Dowager's side.

"Look, look, this girl has a sweet mouth, I don't blame you for spoiling her." Great Empress Dowager was overjoyed in her heart. Wen Shuyu was her precious gem and the only person she still cared about.

Imperial Consort Dowagertian teased him with a smile, "Linglong has changed a lot these days. She's becoming more and more sensible. I'm afraid she'll grow up soon!"

Tian Lan, who came with Wen Shuyu, respectfully watched after the ceremony with no intention to say anything.

There was a lot of food on the table, but most of it was light and light. Great Empress Dowager had taken the Imperial Physician's advice and specifically instructed her to do so.

The few of them finished their dinner and headed back in time for Tian Lan. Wen Shuyu knew that she was going to find Yu Dingwen, so Imperial Consort Dowagertian and Wen Shuyu went to rest with Great Empress Dowager until she had a good night's sleep.

On the way back, he came face to face with a familiar figure.

Yang Jian! Why was he here?

"Greetings, County Princess Shayuan."
