The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

Wei Xingzhou looked at the light in the emperor's eyes and lowered his head in dismay. "But the prince consort also said that if you are not going, you should go to bed early. You can have a good dream after sleeping, and avoid having wild thoughts and causing trouble."

Emperor Mingde: “…”

Is this what a son-in-law should say to his father-in-law? A son-in-law!

Wei Xingzhou asked tentatively, "Then, Your Majesty, are you going? If you want to go, I will clear the way for you."

"Go, of course. I want to go and see how prosperous and lively the northern wing of the capital is without curfew." After Emperor Mingde said this, he felt very relaxed and happy.

He thought about it. If Zhuyoushu was a trap, at least it was a trap with a complete and warm story.

Since he is in the game, he just needs to enjoy it.

Aren’t they worriers?

Let them worry about it. He himself is not a puppet, but the hope of the North Wing.

He is the real center, and everyone revolves around him.

He should cooperate with them to finish this game, and then focus on the people's livelihood that he has always cared about.

Emperor Mingde calmed himself down, and then he recalled the afternoon when it was raining heavily outside and he had refused to let Shi Anxia out of the imperial study. He felt very uncomfortable.

When he brought Eunuch Qi and Wei Xingzhou to the painting boat tavern, he saw only Cen Yuan sitting there.

"Where is my daughter?" Emperor Mingde sat down opposite Cen Yuan.

Cen Yuan said sarcastically, "Didn't your daughter leave because of you? You ask me?"

Emperor Mingde was embarrassed. "I, cough! When did I, cough, I don't understand what you are talking about."

"Forget it if you don't understand." Although Cen Yuan was being taunting, he still poured a lot of wine. "Don't say 'I' when you come out. Just be like an ordinary citizen and experience the night view of Congyin River and see if there is anything that can be improved."

Emperor Mingde drank a sip of wine in a depressed mood. "What's the point of improving the night view? It would be great if we could use the money to move the people to a few more cities where they don't have to worry about floods."

Cen Yuan smiled faintly, "This is why my little girl has been trying to protect your life. You are still doubting her motives."

Emperor Mingde continued to drink in silence, "I looked up the art of incantation, and it's not a good thing."

"Of course I know this is not a good thing." Cen Yuan also took a sip of wine, "Her spell is aimed at me, not you."

Emperor Mingde raised his eyes to look at him, and after a long while he laughed out loud, "Son-in-law, if you say so, I feel relieved...hahahahahaha..."

Cen Yuan, "..."

This emperor is becoming more and more unpleasant to the eyes.

Eunuch Qi and Wei Xingzhou sat down at a nearby table, waiting for the waiter to come and order some wine and food.

Wei Xingzhou thought about it, went out to find the owner of the houseboat, handed him an ingot of silver and gave him instructions.

Soon, the pleasure boat cleared the scene and swam slowly on the water.

After a moment, Shi Anxia lifted the curtain from the outside and entered the inner cabin. Seeing Emperor Mingde coming, her face immediately blossomed, "Father... Father, are you really here?"

Emperor Mingde looked at the heartfelt smile on the little girl's face and felt a wave of sadness rushing to his nose.

He actually doubted her! Oh, maybe he was blind.

He waved his hand, "Xia'er, come here quickly, I... your father, cough!"

Shi Anxia saw that Emperor Mingde had figured it out so quickly, so she didn't feel any grievances anymore. She curved her eyebrows and sat next to Cen Yuan, "What did you eat tonight, father? Are you hungry?"

Eunuch Qi, who was sitting at the next table, sighed and interrupted, "Princess, the emperor didn't eat a single bite tonight."

I'm so angry!

Emperor Mingde was thin-skinned and glared at Eunuch Qi, "Eat your food and don't talk too much."

Eunuch Qi looked at the empty table and sighed, thinking of nothing.

The emperor had not eaten at night, and neither had he. He was now starving.

Shi Anxia called the waiter and ordered a few of her favorite snacks, two servings, and a large plate of longan fruit.

The shopkeeper only knew that the person who came was either rich or noble and had booked the pleasure boat, but he had no idea that it was the emperor himself.

They served the wine, food and fruits as instructed and then left. Eunuch Qi hurriedly stood up and used a silver needle to test for poison. After some operation, Eunuch Qi ate each dish before letting Emperor Mingde start eating.

At this time, An Xia had stopped eating and drinking, and was slowly peeling longan shells by herself.

She peeled and ate one, then silently put the peeled longan flesh on a plate and gave it to Cen Yuan and Emperor Mingde.

There was no unpleasantness during the meal. The whole family was having a great time, just like ordinary people.

The father-in-law and son-in-law were drinking together, while the daughter was serving them fruit.

Eunuch Qi was jealous and thought that if Tang was there too, the family would be complete.

He grew up with Emperor Mingde and knew that his master's mind was not on women. It was finally time for him to get it... Just as he was thinking, he glanced out the window and suddenly became excited.

He did not even bother to report to his master. He smiled widely and rushed to the window, shouting, "Xinghe, Chuyang, this, this, this..."

The other pleasure boat was staggered from this side, one heading east and the other heading west.

Tang Xinghe and Ma Chuyang heard someone calling out, a voice they didn't recognize, so they looked up and said, "Eh... Ha! Cousin, cousin-in-law..."

Shi Anxia and Cen Yuan's faces were also framed in the window lattice of the painting boat, like a beautiful painting.

Shi Anxia smiled, "Are you taking your mother and mother out for a river cruise?" She had already seen Tang Chujun and Yao Sheng enjoying the beautiful scenery at the bow of the boat, so she called out, "Do you want to come over?"

After she finished her greeting, she felt a little regretful. She glanced at Emperor Mingde and found that he was concentrating on eating shrimp the whole time, as if he didn't know who he was meeting. His ears were red...

Shi Anxia sighed inwardly, and heard Tang Xinghe yelling at the boatman to turn around and chase their pleasure boat.

Tang Xinghe was very generous, "Don't worry, shopkeeper, you won't lose a penny. Can I book your pleasure boat again next time?"

The shopkeeper smiled with wrinkles on his face. "Look at what you said. It is my great honor that Master Xinghe has been to our pleasure boat. I won't take your money. How about this? I will write 'Xinghe Fang' on the hull to indicate that you have been to this boat. You say..."

Tang Xinghe waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, be careful or your boat will collapse. Boss, you really know how to do business. If you want to do this, then I have to negotiate terms. You have to reserve a private room for me for free forever in the future."

The shopkeeper clapped his hands and laughed, "It's a deal, it's a deal."

Ma Chuyang's face fell, he was unhappy, "It means that my face is worthless!"

Tang Xinghe stretched out his hand and put his arm around Ma Chuyang's shoulders, "Don't be stingy, what's the difference between Xinghe and Chuyang!"

"Get out of the way," Ma Chuyang slapped his hand away, "There's a huge difference!" He shouted, "Who wants to name a pleasure boat after me, Ma Chuyang?"

The boatman on Shi Anxia's side quickly responded with tears in his eyes, "Well, well, our boat doesn't have a name yet. We can call it 'Chuyang Fang'..."
