Jiang Ling thought to herself: Don't say congratulations, it might be a good or bad way to get popular.

King Li refused to be together, and the Seventh Prince did not force him either.

As the crown prince, Xiao Shengyun had something to do and couldn't leave immediately, so the seventh prince volunteered to send Jiang Ling to his place of residence: "Don't worry, brother prince, I will send Brother Jiang safely."

Xiao Shengyun closed Jiang Ling's cloak: "Fan De, take care of the Crown Princess."

As a summer resort for emperors of all dynasties, the palace has been expanded several times and occupies a very large area. Jiang Ling came here for the first time, and introduced the Ninth Prince to him while walking.

"That's where the ministers live. There was no such area before. The ancestors kindly sent people to build it for the ministers and their families. In fact, I think it is convenient for them to come here to discuss politics. Otherwise, for the sake of the government, the emperor can't If you live here for too long, it will be different if you bring the ministers together, and it will not be too late to return to Beijing after the weather turns cold."

"Do you come every year? Do other princes and princesses also come?"

It has to be said that the palace is very beautifully built, with rockery and flowing water, corridors and waists, all of which are exquisite.The path is full of green plants, dotted with flowers of various colors, full of vitality.The green mountains and green waters make people feel refreshed.

"Not all the princes and princesses can come. The father only brings the favored few. Back then, when the elder brother and the others had not gone to entrust the land, it was very lively. This year, the third brother is not here, and the seventh brother doesn't care about anyone. Hey," the Ninth Prince lowered his voice, "Do you know what happened to Brother Seven?"

"Maybe I'm not used to being a father all of a sudden?" Jiang Ling didn't tell the truth directly, followed by the servants in the palace.

"It's possible," the Ninth Prince thought thoughtfully, "I haven't delivered the gift I prepared for my little nephew yet, when do you think it would be better for me to give it?"

"Why don't we wait until the child is born?" Jiang Ling looked at the sky, the Ninth Prince was going to give the child a gift at this time, wasn't he in a hurry to stab King Li in the heart?

"Okay, the child is too young to be disturbed," the Ninth Prince scratched his chin, "I will prepare another big gift when the little nephew is born."

The place where the princes live is close to the inner side, and the Ninth Prince led people in: "The prince and the emperor live here, the largest courtyard, and I live in the back. Brother Jiang can come and play with me when he has time."

Jiang Ling walked into the courtyard, the layout here was similar to the East Palace he saw when he first came to this world, the first impression was cold and hard.

Eunuch Fan ordered the palace staff to put aside and salute: "Young Master, see if there is anything you don't like, and I will order someone to change it."

Jiang Ling never wronged herself, and pointed to several places: "According to the layout of the East Palace, I like to live in a more comfortable place."

The waiters were brought from the East Palace, and they were quick to do things. The East Palace had been re-arranged according to Jiang Ling's wishes, and it was not difficult for them to re-arrange this small courtyard.

It didn't take long for the house to look brand new.

The Ninth Prince was stunned: "Brother Jiang, the palace servants here are really helpful, can you lend me two, I also want to rearrange the yard, you seem to live very comfortably here."

"Look for Eunuch Fan." Jiang Ling sat down on the soft cushioned imperial concubine's couch.

Eunuch Fan brought Guolu to the two of them with a smile: "What kind of arrangement does Your Highness the Ninth Prince want to make? I will pick a few nimble hands and feet to help."

"Just like the one here. It looks comfortable. It's still the same as mine for more than ten years. I'm tired of seeing it."

The Ninth Prince took a few sips of the fruit juice and drank it: "This is made of lychees. I heard that my father sent most of the lychees to the East Palace this year. I asked the people in the mansion to try it. It's not as good as this."

"If you like, let Eunuch Fan decorate it for you and take it home."

The Ninth Prince collected a large bag of things and left contentedly. Just two steps away, he opened the door and turned his head: "By the way, Brother Jiang, there is a hot spring in the palace. You can ask the prince to take you to soak."

The Ninth Prince did not dare to say that he took Jiang Ling there, if the Prince found out, he would be in bad luck.

I hope that the prince and brother can see that he created opportunities for them, and stop worrying about being interrupted by him before.

Jiang Ling has the habit of taking a nap in the afternoon. During the two days of traveling, he didn't sleep well. After the Ninth Prince left, he lay down on the table and felt sleepy.

"Young master, why don't you go to bed and rest for a while." Fan De persuaded in a low voice.

Jiang Ling stood up in a daze.

"Hey, young master, be careful where you step."

Just as Fan De was about to help him, a black figure came quickly and caught the boy who was about to fall.

Enveloped by the familiar breath, Jiang Ling gave up even struggling, and closed her eyes directly: "Your Highness, carry me to the bed, I'm so sleepy..."

The voice was lifeless.

Xiao Shengyun hugged Jiang Ling by the waist, and strode towards the bedroom.

Eunuch Fan followed behind.

The bedroom was rearranged according to Jiang Ling's request, seeing the same style as the East Palace, the corners of Xiao Shengyun's mouth curled up slightly.

Gently put the boy on the bed, and when he touched the bed, Jiang Ling rolled inside, vacating half of the space outside.

Shaking off the quilt and covering the young man, Xiao Shengyun sat by the bed for a while, then got up and went out.

Eunuch Fan followed closely behind and whispered about the Ninth Prince.

"If he comes to play with Ling'er, don't stop him," Xiao Shengyun waved his hand, "What does Ling'er want to do, don't ask Gu, just do what he says."

The Ninth Prince's mother and concubine, Concubine Xian, has a temperament of neither fighting nor grabbing, and has no ambitions. Compared with other princes, the Ninth Prince raised is a little naive.Because of Concubine Xian's attitude and the fact that the Ninth Prince was younger, he was not involved in power struggles, and the other princes would not deliberately target him to make enemies for themselves.

Upon waking up, her stomach was so hungry that she "cuckooed" at a right angle. Jiang Ling sat up with her body propped up, looked at the strange scene around her, and was taken aback for a while before realizing that this was not the Eastern Palace.

The room was very quiet, Jiang Ling picked up the coat beside the bed, put it on, and got out of bed.

"woke up?"

Looking for the sound, Jiang Ling saw the man sitting by the window.

Warm yellow sunlight slanted down from the window and sprinkled on the man's shoulders, softening the cold and stern temperament of the man.The man is holding a scroll, his eyebrows are downcast, against the warm sun, there is a hint of tenderness.

Jiang Ling stood there in a daze, staring at the man in a daze.

After a while, Jiang Ling still didn't move, Xiao Shengyun put down the book in his hand, got up and walked over.

"Still sleepy?"

The voice in his ears brought back Jiang Ling's thoughts, and he rubbed his eyes: "Has His Highness been here all this time? Did His Highness carry me to the bed? I just felt that His Highness came back."

"It's Gu." Xiao Shengyun stroked his forehead, "Did you not rest well after traveling these days?"

Jiang Ling nodded.

Ignored by the master for a long time, her stomach made a protesting "cuckling" sound, Jiang Ling covered her stomach, her face blushing: "Your Highness, I'm hungry."

"Dinner has been prepared. I see that you are sound asleep, and I didn't wake you up." Xiao Shengyun lowered his head and straightened Jiang Ling's messy skirt.

The palace servants came in with clean water, Jiang Ling washed up and felt quite refreshed.

"How long have I slept?"

"Two hours." Xiao Chengyun took a dry handkerchief and wiped off the water on Jiang Ling's face.

"Sleeping for so long," Jiang Ling was surprised, "No wonder I'm so hungry."

After coming out, Jiang Ling looked at the sky, the sun was setting and it was already evening.

"Your Highness, Young Master, just now, Concubine Xian sent some food that she made herself, and she said it was to thank Young Master for helping His Highness Ninth Prince re-arrange the courtyard." Eunuch Fan came in carrying a food box.

"Concubine Xian?" Jiang Ling couldn't remember any intersection between her and Concubine Xian.

"It's the mother and concubine of the Nine Emperor Brothers. The concubine Xian has a good cooking skill, which won the praise of my father. Thanks to Ling'er, I can taste it today."

Eunuch Fan put the food box on the table, opened the lid, and the rich aroma burst out, making the mouth water.

Jiang Ling's eyes fell on the food box, and she became more and more curious about what kind of delicacy can exude such an attractive fragrance.

The dishes were laid out one by one, Jiang Ling gulped under the alluring look.

He was already hungry, and smelling the aroma felt that he could finish a whole table of food.

The dishes were placed in front of Jiang Ling.

Jiang Ling couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and put a piece into her mouth.

The meat was stewed so soft that it almost melted in the mouth without chewing. The delicious taste stimulated the taste buds. Jiang Ling swallowed it in two or three bites and picked up the second piece.

After eating several pieces of meat one after another, Jiang Ling was about to continue when Xiao Shengyun picked up a white ball and fed it to his mouth.

"Ling'er can try other dishes."

The smell of the meatballs was different from the meat I ate just now, it seemed to be mixed with the fragrance of lotus leaves, Jiang Ling took a bite without hesitation.

"good to eat!"

After tasting the dishes one by one, Jiang Ling sighed: "The Ninth Prince is so lucky to have such a concubine who can cook."

Feeling that it was almost done, Xiao Chengyun pressed Jiang Ling's hand that continued to pick up vegetables: "Ling'er eat again, I'm going to be full."

Having eaten together a lot, Xiao Shengyun was very aware of Jiang Ling's food intake. In the beginning, Jiang Ling let herself eat, and always liked to feed herself up. Later, under Xiao Shengyun's intentional control, she basically didn't eat enough.

"I'll take another bite." Jiang Ling looked at Xiao Shengyun eagerly, "Just one bite."

Looking at each other silently, Xiao Shengyun disarmed and surrendered: "Only one bite is allowed."

Once Xiao Shengyun stopped him, Jiang Ling stared at him with those moist eyes, and said softly, "Just take one bite", one bite after another, unknowingly eating many bites.

Not surprisingly, Jiang Ling was fed up again. He touched his round belly, wanting to cry but not crying.

"Why didn't Your Highness stop me?" Jiang Ling complained.

Xiao Shengyun nodded his forehead with a smile: "Didn't Gu stop you? Who keeps saying to take another bite?"

Jiang Ling knew she was wrong, she looked away with a guilty conscience, "Your Highness must stop me next time."

It was too unbearable, so Xiao Shengyun sent someone to invite Dr. Zhang.

Doctor Zhang knew that Jiang Ling didn't like to drink medicine, so after finishing his pulse, he prescribed small pills to help digestion: "It's not good for your health to eat too much, the princess will try to control it next time."

Jiang Ling covered her face, it was too embarrassing to ask the imperial physician because she was too full.

"Gu will look at it in the future, this time it's because Gu Gu's field is not firm." Xiao Shengyun patted Jiang Ling's head, taking the fault to himself.

Doctor Zhang saw clearly that the prince's love for the princess had no bottom line, packed up the medicine box, shook his head and left.

Jiang Ling thought that this matter was over like this, but unexpectedly, when he went to pay his respects to Emperor Chongming and the Empress the next morning, Emperor Chongming mentioned it.

"I heard that Xiaoling invited the imperial physician yesterday because she was too full, is it okay?"

"How did you survive until you asked for an imperial physician?" The empress showed worry, "Xiaoling is young, so it's inevitable that she can't control her appetite. Why doesn't the prince pay attention?"

Jiang Ling grabbed the prince's sleeve and shouted in her heart: Please don't mention this - why is it that in one night, everyone knows that he hired the imperial doctor because of eating too much? !
