"Your Majesty, I have the audacity to bring you some cakes. Please forgive me."

When Fangruo walked into the hall, there was no need to say anything, just perform the formalities consciously.

Yinzhen didn't even raise his head, looking at the memorial in his hand with a melancholy look on his face.

When Fang Ruo came in, he did not say anything. He just kept looking at the memorial without saying a word.

After a long while, he slowly spoke: "If you know it is a sin, why do you dare to do it?"

"Your Majesty's body and my head, of course, your body is more important."

Fang Ruo said this without looking away, and was not at all panicked in the face of Sheng Wei.

Yinzhen raised his head and looked at Fangruo, his eyes falling on the food box beside her.

"This food box..." Yinzhen asked.

Fang Ruo replied: "Your Majesty, these are snacks and ginseng soup sent from the Yikun Palace. The Imperial Concubine has instructed me to serve them to Your Majesty."

Fang Ruo used to be an elder close to Chun Yuan. She was promoted to serve in the imperial court, which also showed the emperor's concern for Chun Yuan.

The emperor is aware of this, and Fangruo herself is even clearer about it.

Yinzhen seemed to be thinking about something, he sighed and said, "I don't know when you became friends with the imperial concubine."

Fang Ruo seldom took sides. Even in the emperor's own eyes, he only remembered that she had applied distant mountain ink for Zhen Huan once, which reminded him of Zhen Huan.

It was precisely because Fangruo had always been like this that Yinzhen felt very strange this time.

"I dare not. The Imperial Concubine is a precious body. I, a humble servant, dare not talk about friendship with her. I work for the Imperial Concubine because she and I have the same thoughts. That is the Emperor's body. The Emperor is the highest authority and I dare not harm him in the slightest. If he is busy for a long time and hurts his body, it means that I have not served him well and I deserve to die."

When Fang spoke, she was neither humble nor arrogant, and there was not a single mistake to be found.

Yinzhen nodded, his expression softened a little, "Bring it up, let me see what's in it."

Fang Ruo then stood up and brought the food box over.

When the food box was opened, the fragrant aroma of the snacks inside immediately made Yinzhen's appetite whetted.

"Yes, this is the taste, the small kitchen in Yikun Palace." Yinzhen nodded.

Fang Ruo took a look at Yinzhen's expression and felt relieved.

Yinzhen asked again: "I remember that Yikun Palace sent cakes and pastries half an hour ago. Why are they still hot now? I didn't tell anyone to wait."

Fang Ruo bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the Yikun Palace sends a new batch of incense sticks every other time, so it's still hot."

Yinzhen raised his eyebrows and said, "Your Highness, you are so thoughtful. Take the reward and give it away. You have worked hard in serving the emperor these days."

Fang Ruo hesitated: "Yes...but Imperial Concubine..."

"Prepare the sedan chair and go to Yikun Palace."

The words in Fang Ruo's mouth didn't come out again, "Yes!"

……

Yikun Palace.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

As expected, the emperor really came.

Songzhi was surprised and immediately supported Nian Shilan and prepared to go outside to greet them.

Nian Shilan waved his hand and told the servants to leave. He leaned back on the couch and took a short rest.

She went to great lengths to get the emperor to come to Yikun Palace, but not just to get the emperor to see her.

Sure enough, Yinzhen's sedan chair had just landed.

Then the hearty laughter of the young men could be heard.

Yinzhen waved his hand, "Hmm?"

Su Peisheng didn't know what was going on and pushed Zhou Ninghai beside him with his hand.

Zhou Ninghai hurried forward and replied, "Your Majesty, it's the Third and Fourth Princes who are inside."

"Third Prince?" Yinzhen was surprised.

"Yes, the Third Prince and the Fourth Prince are good brothers, so they came here together after school."

Yinzhen frowned, "I remember that the Third Prince should be riding a horse in the hunting ground now, right?"

Zhou Ninghai didn't know what to say. He was so anxious that sweat was all over his forehead. He looked at Su Peisheng for help.

Su Peisheng stepped forward immediately and said, "Your Majesty, I remember correctly. I think it's because the weather is getting colder, and the Third Prince wants to rest for a day or two."

Yinzhen ignored his explanation and walked straight to the side hall.

Unexpectedly, the two people inside were so engrossed in playing that they didn't even notice the emperor had arrived, and didn't even notice him walking up behind them.

The Third Prince hugged his younger brother and said happily, "Look, Fourth Brother, this is really a good thing. Look how finely it is made."

The Fourth Prince nodded and said, "Yes, Third Brother, I have never seen this thing. If you hadn't come, the Ministry of Internal Affairs would not have taken out such an interesting item."

"Third brother will protect you from now on, let's have fun together.

The Fourth Prince's ears twitched, as if he had thought of something, and he spoke hesitantly, "Third brother, you haven't memorized the essay that the teacher handed in today, why don't we memorize it first before playing."

"What's there to memorize? That article is long and boring. Besides, you can remind me when we're in class!"

The Third Prince didn't care at all. After saying that, he just lay down and then turned over leisurely.

But in front of me was a bright yellow figure.

At first he thought he had seen wrongly and rubbed his eyes.

When he finished rubbing and opened his eyes again, he was still wearing the bright yellow clothes. Looking up, he saw his father's angry face.

"Emperor…Emperor Father!"

The Third Prince screamed and knelt down on the ground happily.

The Fourth Prince then realized it, turned around, and knelt respectfully beside him, "Son, son pays respect to the Emperor!"

"I asked you to read, and this is how you read to me!"

"Father, please calm down. I won't dare to do it again. Please forgive me!"

The Third Prince begged for mercy quickly. Although he was not a smart man, he became very skilled at apologizing to the Emperor after doing it many times.

"No wonder you were stuttering when I checked your homework a few days ago and couldn't answer any questions. I thought you were just nervous, but I didn't expect you really didn't study hard. All the principles your Royal Mother taught you have gone to waste!"

Yinzhen was really angry and cursed.

The third and fourth princes did not dare to speak.

Hearing such a loud commotion, Nian Shilan rushed over.

"Oh, Your Majesty, I pay my respects to Your Majesty." Nian Shilan saluted and walked forward to hold Yinzhen.

"Your Majesty, please don't be angry."
