A house full of cannon fodder reads my mind. Who knows? I’m going crazy.

The next day, Yan Bao and Mrs. Shen handed over the post, and Concubine Jing let their mother and daughter enter the palace.

Even if you don't allow it, the emperor has already spoken. Does Concubine Jing dare to stop her?

For this reason, the emperor went to Concubine Jing's Palace last night to have dinner and take a test on the knowledge of the Thirteenth Prince. The Thirteenth Prince only went to school this year and learned slower than others.

However, the Thirteenth Prince is diligent and studious, and he studies well. He is not as good as those smart princes, at least he is not stupid.

The emperor was very satisfied.

Concubine Jing was also very satisfied, knowing that the Thirteenth Prince was hiding his clumsiness.

This was good, so as not to be jealous of other princes. As a mother-in-law, she had no abilities. She just wanted to support the Thirteenth Prince and have a backer in the future. She did not expect the Thirteenth Prince to sit in that position.

It's good to just not fight or grab.

The Thirteenth Prince knew that Yan Bao was back, so he specially bid the price and waited for Yan Bao to arrive in Concubine Jing's Palace. He hadn't seen him for a few months and didn't know what was going on. He heard that there were water bandits in Jingzhou.

She sounded very arrogant. I wonder if she was targeted by water bandits.

While the Thirteenth Prince was looking forward to it, Yan Bao and Mrs. Shen had already entered the palace.

After seeing the Thirteenth Prince, Yan Bao let go of Mrs. Shen's hand and ran towards the Thirteenth Prince with a smile. The Thirteenth Prince also ignored the rules in the palace and ran towards Yan Bao.

The two little ones met halfway, holding hands. You looked at me and I looked at you. Yan Bao grinned.

The Thirteenth Prince also laughed, and his voice was young and clear: "Yan Bao!"

Yan Bao nodded. It was difficult to speak in front of everyone, so he hummed weakly.

The Thirteenth Prince said: "I will take you to play later."

Yan Bao continued to nod.

Mrs. Shen smiled when she saw Yan Bao getting along happily with the Thirteenth Prince, and went to pay her respects to Concubine Jing.

Concubine Jing liked Yan Bao very much and waved with a smile: "Yan Bao, come here quickly. We haven't seen you for a few months. Yan Bao looks taller. Has he lost weight?"

Yan Bao was speechless: [I really haven't lost weight, I just grew taller and look a little thin. I really eat well, I eat a big bowl every meal! 】

Mrs. Shen almost laughed at her big bowl. Thinking of the meal she had last night, it was indeed quite a lot.

When Yan Bao entered the palace this time, he also brought Concubine Jing the gifts she brought back from Jingzhou, including a sachet made of lotus root silk fabric and osmanthus and lotus root powder. Yan Bao also demonstrated on the spot how to brew lotus root powder.

Added honey, sweet and delicious.

Concubine Jing drank a bowl of it in a dignified manner.

The Thirteenth Prince waited impatiently for Yan Bao to make a cup of lotus root starch for her.

Yan Bao took it upon himself to teach the Thirteenth Prince how to make lotus root starch. The Thirteenth Prince found it interesting and learned how to make a bowl of lotus root starch. It looked pretty good.

When Concubine Jing saw it, she intended to please the emperor and said to the Thirteenth Prince: "The Emperor is probably tired from dealing with important matters in the court. If the Thirteenth Prince makes a bowl of lotus root starch brought back specially by Yanbao, the Emperor will definitely be very happy."

Yan Bao shook his head and refused: [Your Majesty cannot drink lotus root starch. Your Majesty will have diarrhea if you drink it. If something happens, I will be guilty. 】

Mrs. Shen was also anxious.

The Thirteenth Prince refused: "This is what Yan Bao gave to his mother and concubine. She keeps it for herself to drink. On my father's side, Yan Bao has prepared a gift."

Yan Bao nodded: [No, I specially prepared a gift for the emperor! 】

The gifts prepared for the emperor have been sent to the emperor.

The emperor had time and looked at the palace attendant: "Didn't you say that Yan Bao prepared a gift for me, why didn't you bring it up?"

Eunuch Fu was confused: "Your Majesty, Miss Yan Bao did send a gift, but..."

Who is the emperor? Seeing the way Eunuch Fu was hesitant to speak, he knew there was something wrong with the gift. He said: "I haven't seen anything before. I also know that she, a little baby, has nothing to offer. What I care about is her heart." .”

"Feelings are much more expensive than others. Bring them up quickly and keep grinding." The emperor complained.

Eunuch Fu did not dare to disappoint the emperor, so he immediately checked him and brought out a tray with no problem, covered with a piece of cloth, as if he was afraid of being looked at.

The emperor was a little excited and said, "Go and call Chief Shen and let him see the gift Yan Bao has prepared for me."

The palace man retreated to look for someone.

The emperor happily opened the cloth and took a look, thinking that even if it was not a valuable thing, it was still a decent thing.

Who knew that there was a pair of straw sandals covered under the cloth.

"Straw sandals?" The emperor was dumbfounded: "Are you right?"

Eunuch Fu knelt down directly: "Your Majesty Mingjian, even if you give this slave ten courages, the slave will not dare to fool the Emperor. It was Miss Yanbao who gave you a pair of straw sandals. She also said that when she was in Jingzhou, she saw many people wearing them. I think it was It's popular there. Miss Yan Bao specially learned to knit straw sandals to honor the emperor."

The corner of the emperor's mouth twitched.

He doesn't want this kind of filial piety.

The straw sandal emperor knew it, but he didn't expect someone to give it to him.

Okay, it was made by Yan Bao himself, his thoughts are more important than anything else.

Soon, Shen Shoufu came. Looking at the emperor's smiling face and the straw sandals lying on the side, Shen Shoufu knew that this gift would definitely surprise the emperor.

No, by calling him here, are you trying to laugh at him?

Shen Shoufu saluted: "Does your Majesty like the straw sandals Yan Bao gave you?"

"What did Yan Bao give you?" The emperor was acting like a jealous scumbag right now, and he disliked Chief Shen. If Yan Bao sent me away with straw sandals to say goodbye to her biological father, I would be really angry.

Shen Shoufu smiled and said: "Of course they are hand-knitted straw sandals by Yan Bao. I wear them very well. I heard that many people in Jingzhou like to wear straw sandals in summer. They are cool. Yan Bao thought they were good and specially knitted a pair for me to avoid being too hot in summer. I’m suffering from heatstroke.”

The emperor was mentally balanced.

His biological father always wears straw sandals. It seems that Yan Bao really thinks straw sandals are good.

Also, what can a five-year-old know?

The important thing is the mind!

The emperor smiled and asked: "Are the straw sandals really good?"

Shen Shoufu nodded affirmatively: "Come on, your Majesty, would you like to try them on? There are no outsiders anyway. Let's see if the shoes fit. I think the pair you wear are quite suitable."

I can't prick my feet alone.

At Shen Shoufu's suggestion, the emperor actually took off his boots. In the summer, wearing shoes was really hot and smelly.

Eunuch Fu held his breath and put on the emperor's straw sandals.

The emperor tried to step on the ground. The soles of his feet were pricked, as were the tops of his feet. The straw sandals were rough and not something a pampered nobleman like him could wear.

Shen Shoufu encouraged the emperor in a bad way: "I walked a few steps in them, but I didn't expect that the shoes made of straw ropes are cool and breathable, and they are really comfortable to wear in summer."

The emperor wouldn't listen to him. He was old, thin-skinned and couldn't leave.

Rough straw rope, tied to the feet.

The emperor said perfunctorily: "Not bad, not bad. It is indeed cool and breathable."

But no, just shoes made of a few straw ropes, completely hollow, which is a little better than going barefoot. Can they not be cool and breathable?

The emperor once again comforted himself in his heart, mainly because of his heart.

The emperor immediately took off his straw sandals, as if he was afraid of damaging them, and told Eunuch Fu to keep them carefully, as he would wear them from time to time to allow for some fresh air and coolness.

In fact, the emperor never wore it again.

With a pair of worthless straw sandals, Yan Bao exchanged a lot of good things from the emperor, which can be said to be a huge profit!

It's a pleasure to pluck wool.
