Just after getting married, the princess actually became emperor!

Chapter 7

The old woman demonstrated the process of making almond tea. It is indeed relatively simple. The soup base is made from lotus root powder and almond powder. Sugar is added during cooking. When it is done, the color will be milky white and transparent. Then it is served. The ingredients are ready.

In order to thank the old woman for her generosity, Fengzhi gave her 100 taels of silver as a thank you.

Fengzhi was very happy to learn almond tea. The teahouse’s signature snacks were now available. She was sure that this would be very popular!

"Snapped!"

"Don't run away, you bitch!"

Fengzhi was thinking about how to make almond tea when he was attracted by the sound coming from behind, and then turned around to look.

I saw Magistrate Meichuan with half of his arms exposed, holding his black gauze hat and running forward regardless of his appearance. As he ran, he begged for mercy, "Xia Xia, stop fighting. I really can't do what you said!"

Xiao Yan was dressed in red and his eyes widened, "Why can't it be done? It's just a fake identity, what's the big deal! You dare to deceive the people, I just want an identity, it's not a trivial matter!"

As Xiao Yan said this, he slapped the magistrate on the head with a stick, and the "pop!" sound was particularly loud.

It was a real stick, as thick as a baby's fist, and the onlookers couldn't help but gasp.

Hongri looked a little dumbfounded and couldn't help but sigh, "Miss, this girl is really a tiger!"

Some of the government officials following the magistrate tried to stop them, but they were all beaten away by Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan did not fight anyone else, but only chased the magistrate.

"Guan Gu, just say it's okay!"

The magistrate collapsed on the ground speechlessly, breaking the can! "It can't be done, it can't be done! This is the crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Hearing this, Fengzhi stepped forward curiously, "I wonder if you two need help?"

When the magistrate heard someone answer the question, his voice was like the sound of nature. Although she was a little girl, she didn't mind it, "Girl, you can judge for me, the heroine must make things difficult for others! It's not easy for me to be a parent and an official!"

Xiao Yan opened his eyes and stared at him, "Bah! Just you, a parent official? You deserve it!"

Fengzhi smiled and said, "There are so many people here, how about we go to a restaurant?"

When the county magistrate saw that someone was taking care of this matter, he would not be beaten for the time being, so he was naturally happy. No matter what the outcome was, it would be fine as long as he was not beaten for the time being!

The three of them found a private room in the restaurant, and then sat in the room. For a moment, no one spoke first.

Fengzhi smiled and poured tea for the two of them, and then poured herself a cup. She picked up the tea cup and took a sip slowly, "I was outside just now, and I heard the adults talk about the crime of deceiving the emperor. I don't know what this is." What's going on?"

"There will be a draft held by the imperial court next year at the spring equinox, but according to our rules, orphans are not allowed to be selected. They must be from an official family or from a famous family to be eligible for selection!"

Fengzhi glanced at Xiao Yan in surprise, "You want to draft?"

Xiao Yan nodded, "Yes! It's great to be a queen. You have food, drink, and servants to call on you!"

The magistrate covered his forehead and shook his head speechlessly. He always felt that this girl was probably not a fool, but he had no way to deal with her. Whoever had such superb martial arts skills would not be her match in any government office!

"What kind of identity does the girl want?"

Xiao Yan glanced at the magistrate and said, "I'm just pretending to be his niece!"

The magistrate also spoke at this time, "Girl, I think you are a sensible person. Do you think I can recommend her to the emperor like this? If she disturbs the emperor, I'm afraid I will be blamed for death!"

As he said this, he couldn't help but shake his head, "If you are found guilty of deceiving the emperor, you will be punished by the nine tribes!"

Fengzhi covered her mouth and smiled, "Master Magistrate, why don't you leave first, and I will enlighten this girl for you!"

When the county magistrate heard this, he was very happy and said, "Thank you!" After saying this, he ran away.

As soon as the magistrate left, Xiao Yan felt that it was meaningless, "Do you really want to persuade me?"

Fengzhi took the bun in Hongri's hand and handed it over, "It's so early, so the girl must not have had breakfast yet. Why don't we chat while eating?"

Xiao Yan was not polite, took the bun and started eating it.

Fengzhi asked Hongri to order a few more side dishes, and soon they were placed on the table.

Xiao Yan said while eating, "I want so much. If I can't finish it, can I take it away?"

Fengzhi smiled and said, "Of course!"

After hearing this, Fengzhi knew that Xiao Yan was an orphan, and even though she knew some martial arts, she must have had a very hard life.

Seeing that Xiao Yan was eating well, Fengzhi followed suit and took a few bites. When Xiao Yan was almost done eating, Fengzhi started to ask questions again.

"Why are you drafting?"

"Didn't I just say that if you enter the palace and become a queen, you will have food, drink, and people to serve you, so no fool would want to go!"

"Did you know that the Emperor is 52 years old this year and is a veritable old man!"

"Of course I know, so what!"

Fengzhi observed Xiao Yan's expression and saw that she was not surprised. She obviously knew it. This was interesting. If she only relied on her previous words, she would have thought that this girl was innocent and naive, but she knew that the emperor was old but still... It seems that things are not going to be simple when entering the palace!

Fengzhi said tentatively, "Maybe I can help you. If you only want the draft status, I should be able to get it for you."

Xiao Yan looked at Fengzhi and blinked his eyelids, holding the chicken leg in his hand and continuing to chew, "What is your identity?"

"The eldest lady of Zhenguo Palace, Fengzhi!"

"Is that the Duke of Zhen who fought in southern Xinjiang?"

"Yes, that is my father!"

Xiao Yan shook his head and refused firmly, "I don't need your help! Lord Zhenguo is a good man, I can't implicate him!"

Hearing this, Fengzhi became more and more curious. It was definitely not easy for her to enter the palace. If it would harm others, could it be...

Fengzhi took a sip of water, then put some food for Xiao Yan, and then pretended to be unintentional and joked, "It's just a matter of entering the palace, how could it hurt others? Do you want to be an assassin?"

"Ahem..." Xiao Yan choked before finishing the food. Her face turned pale with fright at these words. She stared at her big almond-like eyes, looked at Fengzhi in horror, and stammered, "You ··How did you··”

Fengzhi interrupted her, "It's just a joke, of course I know you're not!"

Walls have ears, Fengzhi stopped continuing this topic.

"You can't enter the palace now anyway, so why not follow me first!"

"Why should I follow you?"

"Follow me and I'll make sure you have enough to eat three times a day!"

Xiao Yan hesitated and asked uncertainly, "Have you eaten enough?"

Fengzhi smiled and nodded, "Yes."

Xiao Yan seemed to have received a great blessing, his almond-shaped eyes narrowed to a slit, and the shallow dimples on his face were exposed, "You can't go back on what you said!"
