The queen had no choice but to walk down the stairs and come to the side of the cake. A faint fragrance instantly entered her nose.

She couldn't help but take a deep breath.

What a nice smell.

It was the first time for Xu Zhaoyi to eat it, and she had never heard Lu Shiwan talk about it. Her eyes were full of admiration and love.

Concubine De, who had just been bickering with the Queen, now walked up to Lu Shiwan with a cake and exclaimed in praise.

The ministers who got a piece of cake returned to their respective seats and tasted it one by one. Everyone was amazed.

The Crown Prince and Princess Ling'an looked at the cake on the table and took a bite with a huff.

Fang Zhirou became more and more confused about Lu Shiwan.

She knew nothing before, but her personality changed drastically after waking up. Could she be possessed by a ghost?

Or is he really dead? Is this person in front of me just someone who looks exactly the same?

"I never thought that Lu Shiwan is so capable. This is the first time I eat this cake." Princess Ling'an sat next to Fang Zhirou and clicked her tongue twice.

"Queen Fang, your sister is really not a simple one."

Fang Zhirou bit her lip.

After a while, voices praising Lu Shiwan came from all directions, and many men regretted why they did not discover Lu Shiwan at the beginning.

Everyone was regretting so much that their intestines turned green.

Mo Qitian held Lu Shiwan's hand and didn't let go for a moment.

As a man, he could see the blasphemous looks in those people's eyes.

"Wanwan, when did you learn it?"

Lu Shiwan blinked and said, "In a dream."

This is a bad excuse that can only deceive your husband.

Thinking of her abilities, Mo Qitian smiled.

He waited for the day when she would tell him in person.

Fang Zhiya walked to Lu Shiwan with a cake in her hand and a big belly.

She knew everything about Lu Shiwan these days.

The Shangshu Mansion no longer exists.

Her aunt also disappeared.

"Sister, I have lived with you for so many years and have never eaten this. I didn't expect that now, thanks to the Queen Mother's blessing, I can eat it."

Lu Shiwan looked at her:

"Miss Fang, you must have misunderstood something. My last name is Lu, and yours is Fang. We are not related at all. I cannot bear to be called sister."

Fang Zhiya originally thought that no matter what Lu Shiwan did, she would give her some face because she was a concubine.

Now that Lu Shiwan said this, I felt a little embarrassed.

She touched her swollen belly:

"Princess Qi, I was overstepping my authority just now. I thought we used to live in the same mansion, so it's okay to call you like this. Since Princess Qi doesn't like it, then forget it."

"Yeah." She said calmly.

Seeing her attitude, Fang Zhiya couldn't stay any longer.

After Fang Zhiya left, Lu Shiwan turned around and looked at her again.

She is six months pregnant now, so how come her belly is as big as that of a pregnant woman who is about to give birth?

Before she could think about it, the incident of eating the cake was over.

Looking at everyone's admiration for the gift that Lu Shiwan gave to the Queen Mother.

The Emperor Long Yan was delighted.

"Rewards, there are rewards for many!"

"This gift from Princess Qi touched the Queen Mother's heart. What gift does Princess Qi want?"

"Replying to Father, my daughter-in-law does not want any gifts."

"How can that be possible?" The emperor thought of the many gifts he had secretly given her, and thought that she would not lack those things. Then he considered for a while, "Since you don't say what you want, then I will reward you with 10,000 taels."

The queen widened her eyes. The food she just ate was worth ten thousand taels?

"emperor……"

"My wife thanks my father." Lu Shiwan bowed with a smile.

Before the queen could finish her words, she heard Lu Shiwan accepting the reward. She almost vomited out the cake she had just eaten.

A money-obsessed bitch!

The singing and dancing continued.

"Cousin, cousin."

Princess An Ning called out to Lu Shiwan in a low voice from behind her.

Lu Shiwan heard someone calling him and turned around to look.

Princess An Ning stretched out her hand and beckoned, "Cousin, come over here?"

"Here are the pineapple cakes you like."

When Lu Shiwan heard that it was pineapple cake, she whispered a few words in Mo Qitian's ear. Mo Qitian rubbed her hair lovingly and asked her to take good care of herself.

Lu Shiwan lifted her skirt and walked towards Princess An Ning.

Princess An Ning had already reserved a position for her.

"Where did this come from?" Lu Shiwan picked up a piece and tasted it.

"I asked Fu Jingheng to buy it at Mingyue Tower."

Lu Shiwan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh, did you just buy it?"

"No, I bought it before entering the palace."

Lu Shiwan said "oh" and continued eating.

The pineapple cakes in ancient times are not the same as those in modern times. They contain real pineapples and no corrosive agents are added. They taste lighter, but are soft, sweet and extremely delicious.

This was also what Lu Shiwan ordered unintentionally when he was in Mingyue Tower.

An Ning continued, "Cousin, let me tell you, my cousin is such a fool."

"When I was a child, the emperor gave him a piece of osmanthus cake at the dinner table and asked him if he liked it. My cousin said he liked it without even thinking about it."

"Later, whenever the emperor saw him, he would reward him with a plate of osmanthus cake. Once, when I was at Concubine Xu's place, I saw him vomit after eating it."

"In fact, he likes to eat pineapple cakes, but the emperor only remembers that the crown prince and the second prince like it. They are all sons, so this is too partial."

Princess An Ning took a piece of pineapple cake and put it into her mouth.

"That sweet-scented osmanthus cake is dry, will that young man like it?"

Lu Shiwan thought to himself, no wonder there were all kinds of cakes in Prince Qi’s mansion except osmanthus cake.

"It's just a piece of cake, but you're making it so mysterious. People who don't know would think Princess Qi couldn't afford it before."

Lu Shiwan turned his head and saw a woman in a goose yellow skirt sitting next to him.

"who are you?"

"Me?" The woman covered her mouth and chuckled, "I am the daughter of the Minister of War, Ye Siyu."

"Ye Siyu?"

Lu Shiwan shook his head, "I don't know him."

"You——" Ye Siyu was a little unhappy.

"Why, should I know who you are?"

Seeing that she spoke with sarcasm, Lu Shiwan didn't like her at all.

She opened her red lips and said, "I do know someone named Ye. She is very elegant and talented, and her every move is like that of a lady from a noble family."

Ye Siyu frowned, "Who are you talking about?"

Lu Shiwan pointed his finger at the woman in front of Princess An Ning on her right, "Hey, that's her, Ye Bitong, the daughter of the Ye family."

Ye Siyu looked in the direction Lu Shiwan pointed.

A woman not far away was enjoying the dance in the hall, smiling and chatting with several women around her from time to time.

"You mean my eldest sister?"

"Oh, so she's your eldest sister."

"So what?" Ye Siyu replied in a bad tone.

"Nothing special, I just thought she was pretty, intelligent, and talented, so I remembered her."

"Oh, by the way, what did you say your name was?"

Ye Siyu raised her chin, "Ye Siyu."

"Okay, I'll remember this." Lu Shiwan said casually, picked up the pineapple cake and took another bite.

Ye Siyu was furious.

She clearly did it on purpose. She could remember that bitch Ye Bitong but not her.

"Lu Shiwan, your father is only a sixth-rank cultivator, what are you so proud of?"

"Do you really think that by currying favor with King Shangqi, you can turn into a phoenix?"
