With the system traveling through time, the queen always becomes a mother painlessly

Nan Yan frowned, "Where did you go in such hot weather?"

The two little elves looked at each other.

The little girl whispered, "Mother, my brother and I will go pick flowers for you."

Xiao Leyu moved to Nan Yan's side, "Mother, here are the flowers my sister and I picked for you."

That's how they would coax her.

Nan Yan didn't want to be controlled by them this time, so she didn't even look at them.

Originally, because they were the only two children in the palace, and they were cute and sweet-spoken, everyone, from the Empress Dowager and the Emperor to the palace maids and eunuchs, doted on them.

If Nan Yan spoiled them like she did the others, these two little kids would probably be raised to have lawless personalities.

"If you want to go out to play in the future, do it in the morning or when the sun is low, okay?"

The two children answered seriously, "Mother, I understand."

Nan Yan almost lost her composure with such an obedient and sweet expression.

But she tried her best to endure it.

"You are well-behaved when you promise, but you must also do what you promised."

They nodded obediently.

Looking at the two cute pink little balls, Nan Yan’s expression could no longer remain calm.

She picked up a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from the foreheads of the two little ones.

When they were just over one year old, they could read people's expressions. Seeing that their mother was no longer stern, they hugged Nan Yan's arms, one on each side, and rubbed their faces against them.

"Alright, alright, let Mammy take you down to take a bath. Your clothes are almost soaked with sweat, and you are making me sweat all over."

Just as she finished speaking, her sleeve was pulled. Little Leyu said aggrievedly: "Mother, you haven't seen the flowers my sister and I picked for you yet!"

"Okay, mother, take a look."

Nan Yan lowered her head, and her pupils suddenly shrank.

She took the flowers from the two children, stood up, and said excitedly, "Yu'er Zhizhi, where did you pick these flowers from?"

The two children were frightened by her sudden action. They thought they had made a mistake by picking flowers that should not be picked. They clutched their clothes tightly with their little hands and dared not speak.

Not only the two children were frightened, but also the palace servants who followed Xiao Leyu and Xiao Lezhi were frightened.

They thought there was something wrong with the flowers picked by the two young masters.

However, when the two young masters wanted to pick the flowers, they first made sure that they were not poisonous before allowing them to pick them.

Nan Yan also realized that her reaction frightened the children. She took a deep breath to suppress her excitement, squatted down, supported their shoulders, and said softly, "Yu'er Zhizhi, I'm sorry, your mother frightened you just now."

"Yu'er, tell me where you picked the flowers?"

"Mother, it was in a very shabby place where the grass grew very tall."

Xiao Leyu gestured with his hands, "It's taller than me."

To be honest, this palace is so big, and there are many places Nan Yan has not been to.

She had no idea where the child was talking about.

She looked at Xiao Dezi beside her and asked, "Where is the prince talking about?"

Xiao Dezi is Leyu's personal eunuch. He is only fourteen years old. He is Wang Dequan's godson and a smart boy.

"Your Highness, the place the prince is talking about is the cold palace."

Cold palace?

The cold palace is the West Palace, where the concubines who have fallen out of favor in the past dynasties lived. Since Shang Yue ascended the throne, that place has been abandoned.

"Madame Yang, Madame Fang, take the Crown Prince and Princess down to bathe."

After Le Yu and Le Zhi were taken away, Nan Yan stood up.

"Xiao Dezi, take me to the place where the prince and the little princess pick flowers."

Nan Yan took people and followed Xiao Dezi to the cold palace.

Because the cold palace had been unattended for many years, the houses were dilapidated, spider webs could be seen everywhere, and the courtyard was overgrown with weeds.

Xiao Dezi pointed to a dilapidated garden in the cold palace and said, "My queen, this is it."

All the weeds on the road where the two children had just walked had been pulled out.

When Nan Yan saw the green leaves in the garden, her eyes suddenly filled with ecstasy.

It turned out to be potatoes!

There were about ten of them, and many of the flowers had already faded. The ones that were still in bloom had just been picked by the two children and given to her.

She likes eating potatoes very much, but when she came here, she found there were no potatoes.

Now it was found in a cold palace.

Shredded potatoes, potato chips, potato cakes, potato flour...

The dishes flashed through Nan Yan's mind and she was almost drooling.

However, these potatoes cannot be dug out and eaten now.

She looked regretful.

"Someone, pull out the weeds around these plants."

After the weeds were pulled out, only a dozen potatoes were left.

"Yinling, have someone take good care of these plants. If any more weeds grow, have them pull them out."

"Yes, ma'am."

Although Yinling didn't know what these things were, judging from the Queen's expression, these things must be very important.

Your Majesty is knowledgeable and experienced, maybe this is something good!

Nan Yan was thinking about it all the way back to Changle Palace.

Since potatoes could be found in the cold palace, that meant there were potatoes here, and maybe they could be found in other places.

Potatoes are a rare food because of their high yield, fillingness and easy storage.

After returning, she called Su Bai and Shuang Bai and asked them to go to the mountains outside Beijing to look for potatoes.

.........

The Yuan Dynasty was one of the two great powers on par with the Shang Dynasty.

The Yuan Dynasty mainly grows rice. Most of their state capitals grow rice, making it a place with abundant food and fodder.

The capital city of Yuandu is located in a beautiful place.

Prince Duan's Mansion was the largest mansion in the Yuan capital.

Inside, there are countless exquisite pavilions, beautiful pools and waterside pavilions, and the stacking of strange rocks is extraordinary.

Qingfeng Courtyard is the largest courtyard in Prince Duan's Mansion and also the courtyard where Prince Duan lives.

At this time, even though Prince Duan Yuan Anchen was lying on the couch, his tall and mighty figure could not be concealed. He had broad shoulders and full chest muscles. His face was angular and his side lines were cold and hard.

There were eight exquisitely carved hollow ice basins on the white jade floor. Eight plump maids were holding fans and fanning them gently, filling the room with cool air.

There was silence in the room.

Suddenly, a voice from the door broke the silence.

"Your Majesty, Biliu requests to see you."

Ronglu, who was standing by, looked at his own prince, only to see that he still had his eyes closed and moved his fingers slightly.

He immediately understood and said to the outside, "Let Biliu in."

After a moment, a cold-looking woman pushed open the door and walked in. She was wearing a tight outfit that outlined her figure to perfection, and she had a sword on her waist.

"See you, Your Majesty."

Yuan Anchen raised his lips and said lazily, "What's the matter?"

Biliu replied: "There's a letter from over there."

The man then opened his eyes, and a dark light flashed in his dark pupils.

The palm he stretched out was very broad, with long fingers and distinct joints.

Biliu took a step forward, took the letter out of the envelope, and handed it to the man.

The room became quiet again.

"Ah!"

In a moment, a mocking chuckle escaped from his throat.
