Today, the emperor, empress, prince and princess are all here, and the dim sum prepared in the Compassion Ning Palace is extraordinarily exquisite.Especially a crystal osmanthus cake, crystal clear, with golden osmanthus flowers frozen inside, shaped like a small ingot, small and cute, full of the aroma of osmanthus flowers, slightly sweet and refreshing.

Jiang Xiaoman had an expression of "I disdain human food" on the surface, but his hands never stopped.The emperor and the empress gossiped there, and he was only responsible for being a demented old fairy who could only say "um", taking a bite of an osmanthus cake, and at the same time slipping a few pieces into his small pocket secretly.

"Ting'er also likes crystal osmanthus cake." The emperor suddenly looked at Jiang Xiaoman.

At this moment, Jiang Xiaoman was reaching for the last piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake. The sweet-scented osmanthus cake was a little far away from him. He leaned forward and stretched out one hand.

Everyone's eyes were on him, and it's not right for him to stop now, or not to stop.

Jiang Xiaoman was stuck there, unable to move, but his expression was too serious, making everyone think his gesture had some meaning, and stared at him even more.

Jiang Xiaoman had no choice but to turn over his hands, close his eyes and count.

After a long time, Jiang Xiaoman opened his eyes and said seriously: "Prince, he..."

Everyone: "?"

Jiang Xiaoman: "... and this crystal osmanthus cake."

Silence.

Suddenly, the emperor sighed.

"Ting'er is indeed destined to be with this sweet-scented osmanthus cake." The emperor's expression was a little lonely, "The immortal really knows things like a god."

Did I really hit the mark?

Could it be that the prince got sick from eating sweet-scented osmanthus cake?

"The crystal osmanthus cakes that his mother and concubine were good at making were the best. The osmanthus cakes she made were even inferior to those in the imperial dining room. Now the osmanthus cakes made by the imperial chef are still made by the concubine Xian." The emperor looked at it. Looking at the only piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake left on the plate, he sighed again, "Ting'er loved this sweet-scented osmanthus cake when he was young, but it's a pity that he said a few years ago that he has grown up and no longer likes sweets, so he won't eat it anymore."

The atmosphere was a little sad for a while, everyone looked at the sweet-scented osmanthus cake and stopped talking.

Jiang Xiaoman originally wanted to take the last piece, but now that everyone was watching, he didn't dare to take it anymore.

"I haven't seen the crown prince for quite a while. The child doesn't like to be quiet with others. Since his leg was injured, he will only see him when he is in court. The rest of the time he is locked in Changle Palace."

"That's right, I haven't seen Brother Huang for a few days, and I almost forgot what Brother Huang looks like." After finishing speaking, Rong Zhe glanced at Yunmeng again, "You must have forgotten too, right?"

Yun Meng glared at him, then whispered: "Who is like you!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" the queen said, "The crown prince is a lucky man, and now the immortal is here, so he will recover soon."

"Yes, after all, the immortal is here." Hearing what the queen said, the emperor's expression turned cloudy, and he looked at Rong Zhe and said, "Speaking of which, has the third son improved in his knowledge recently?"

"Father, don't ask!" Rong Zhe got a headache when he mentioned reading, and quickly stretched out his hand to the dim sum, "Let's eat dim sum!"

"Your Majesty, quickly ask third brother! He just runs around there every day without reading!" Yunmeng never forgot to cheat his cousin.

"It was only two days ago that I heard Zhe'er recite the book, Zhe'er, recite it to your father." The queen said with a smile.The emperor also laughed and said, "Quick, father is going to test your knowledge!"

Just now it was mentioned that the prince was in a gloomy state, but it took less than 3 minutes, and he looked very happy again.

"It's time to eat, and the concubine has already asked someone to prepare lunch."

It was already noon, and the queen gave an order, and the palace people came out in a file, and plates of dishes were served on the table.

The palace people were still serving food, the emperor looked at Jiang Xiaoman, and asked, "By the way, Immortal, where is your pet? I wanted to see the legendary General Yin earlier."

"Is it a tiger?" Rong Zhe's spirit came again.

Jiang Xiaoman was a little distracted, and only recovered when he heard Rong Zhe's voice.He was already prepared for this, and he raised his hand slightly, letting the sleeves of the Taoist robe slip off a little, revealing his smooth arms.

He said: "General Yin is still in the Tongtian Pagoda, so I called him to let His Majesty take a look."

At this time, his hands were empty, and he casually took the handkerchief prepared by the maid in front of him for everyone, rolled the handkerchief in the palm of his hand, rubbed it again, and merged his palms.The next second, he waved his palms and opened them at the same time, and saw a little orange cat appearing in his palms out of thin air.

"This..." Everyone was dumbfounded, where did this cat come from?Just now the immortal had nothing in his hands.

"Immortal, how did this change?" Even Yun Meng, who is afraid of cats, was dumbfounded.

Jiang Xiaoman smiled without saying a word, hugged the little orange cat into his arms, stroked the cat and smiled.

The little orange cat was woken up suddenly, its eyes were sleepy, and the hair on the top of its head was a little messy.But it has a good temper, and it doesn't get angry when it is woken up. It curls up in Jiang Xiaoman's arms and licks its fur.

"This is General Yin?" The emperor looked at the little orange cat and said with a smile, "I thought it was a big tiger."

"Who says it's not a tiger?" Jiang Xiaoman started talking nonsense, "This is a unique type of tiger. It looks like a cat."

At this time, the little orange cat raised its head and yawned, and made a loud "mi" sound.

"...Even its meow is no different from that of a cat." Jiang Xiaoman was serious, "But if you look closely, you can see that it exudes the domineering aura unique to the king of beasts."

Jiang Xiaoman held the kitten high, and the little orange cat was afraid of heights, so it kept yelling "Mimi" helplessly.

"Listen, the roar of the dragon and the roar of the tiger."

Jiang Xiaoman's expression was too serious, everyone was taken aback for a moment, and nodded half-understood.

Jiang Xiaoman put down the kitten, knowing that this round was over.

At this time, the dishes were also served, and the stone table was filled with a dozen or so dishes, and the aroma of the food wafted from the nostrils.

The queen pointed to a dish and said: "Your Majesty, you said last time that this eight-treasure duck dish is delicious, and this concubine specially asked the imperial chef to make one for Your Majesty."

"But just mentioning it casually, the queen has a heart." The emperor smiled with satisfaction, "By the way, have you prepared Yunmeng's favorite phoenix tongue?"

"Of course there is."

"Hey, why doesn't Father ask if I have any favorite dishes?"

Sitting there with the cat in his arms, Jiang Xiaoman watched the four of them enjoying themselves, and was a little distracted again.

Seeing that Jiang Xiaoman didn't say a word, the emperor said, "Immortal, come and taste it, there shouldn't be any taboos for an immortal, right?"

Jiang Xiaoman didn't answer, the emperor called him again, and he came back to his senses, "What?"

"Is there something taboo for immortals?" the emperor asked again kindly.

"No...no...I..." Jiang Xiaoman spoke incoherently, and then said softly after a while, "Poverty Dao is bigu today, thank you Your Majesty for your kindness, this lunch will not be needed."

Jiang Xiaoman got up and nodded to everyone, then left with the cat in his arms.

Everyone looked at Jiang Xiaoman's leaving back, knowing that this fairy had a strange personality, they didn't care about it, and soon the whole family had dinner happily again.

Jiang Xiaoman didn't take a sedan chair when he left, he just wanted to walk around by himself.

He was walking in the palace with the kitten in his arms. It was lunch time, and the maids and eunuchs went to serve their masters. Jiang Xiaoman was the only one on the way.

No one was watching, and his expression collapsed, and he could no longer maintain his inscrutable expression.

The corners of his mouth, which were always slightly raised, were now sunken, his brows were furrowed, and his big eyes looked at the ground, as if he was about to cry in a second.

He misses his grandparents.

Looking at the harmonious appearance of the emperor's family just now, he couldn't help but think of his grandparents.

He also had that kind of life. Although their life was poor, his grandparents never forgot what he liked to eat. The three of them gathered together and ate simple meals, but they were happier than the emperor.

It's just that grandparents are gone, even he himself died for no apparent reason, and came to this strange place...

Jiang Xiaoman felt uncomfortable thinking about it, he walked blindly, and as he walked, Tongtian Tower was not far away.

He wanted to go back to sleep, and after waking up, he would cheer up and continue the task of matching up the hero and heroine.Even though he was the only one left at home, he still wanted to go home.

He walked past Changle Palace, but the gates of Changle Palace were still closed.

He thought of the lifeless appearance in Changle Palace, and suddenly felt that the prince was also a pitiful person.I lost my mother at such a young age, my father married a bunch of wives and gave birth to a bunch of sons, and now he is crippled again, so he can only wait for the heroine to appear there.

Jiang Xiaoman was about to return to Tongtian Tower, but when he thought of this, he turned back to Changle Palace.

"Your Highness, the immortal is here."

In Changle Palace, Tong Guang said to the prince.

"What is he doing?"

"He said he wanted to show you the big tiger."
