"What delicious food did Wan'er make that she even sent someone to invite me to come and have a meal?"
It was the first time that Wan'er took the initiative to send someone to call him. Jin Moli was quite delighted and stepped into Minghe Palace with a beaming smile on his face.
Concubine Wan gently welcomed him into the palace.
"I noticed that Your Majesty looked a little haggard these days and had lost a lot of weight, so I prepared some nourishing medicinal food for Your Majesty."
Jin Moli glanced at the table full of delicious dishes, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and sat down in a very good mood.
"It's been a long time since I've had Wan'er's medicinal food. The last time I had it was during the Lantern Festival, right?"
I remember that time, he did it on purpose to coax her.
"Yes, Wan'er remembers that the emperor had caught a cold and was a little weak, so Wan'er made medicinal food for him for several days in a row. It was just a try, but unexpectedly, the emperor really got better after a while."
Concubine Wan smiled and helped him serve a bowl of soup.
Chief Steward Gao was just about to let the eunuch taste it first, but Jin Moli waved his hand to stop him.
"Wan'er still remembers it so clearly?"
Concubine Wan smiled gently and sat down: "How could Wan'er forget about the emperor's affairs?"
"Your Majesty, please use some quickly! These were made after I specifically asked Yu Yuanzheng for advice."
"Yu Yuanzheng also said that eating a moderate amount would be good for the emperor's health."
Chief Steward Qi was still worried and wanted to persuade the Emperor, but when he heard that it was Yu Yuanzheng who had looked at it and the Emperor was determined not to accept it, he finally felt relieved.
"Yeah?"
"Then I must taste it carefully."
Jin Moli didn't expect that she would care about him so much, and he was almost overjoyed.
He picked up the soup bowl and started drinking.
"Well, it's really good. Your skills have improved again."
Concubine Wan smiled modestly: "Your Majesty, please stop praising Wan'er. How can Wan'er's little skill be so impressive?"
"Speaking of making medicinal food, my mother is the best at it. I just learned a little bit from her."
Concubine Wan helped him pick up the dishes herself while she talked about family matters as if she was chatting.
"My father is so healthy because of my mother's good medicinal food."
"Some time ago, I saw that the emperor was a little tired, so I sent a letter home and asked my mother for some medicinal recipes."
Jin Moli held her hand, hooked it in her palm, and said tenderly: "Wan'er still loves me the most."
Concubine Wan almost blushed: "If Wan'er doesn't feel sorry for the emperor, who else can she feel sorry for?"
"Wan'er, I'm tired today. How about I rest here?"
Jin Moli looked at his beloved one with a shy face, his heart full of love. He couldn't wait any longer and pulled him to sit on his lap.
Concubine Wan didn't expect him to do this, and her face turned red: "Brother Li, there are others!"
Jin Moli glanced at the empty surroundings and said with a joking smile: "Look, where is there anyone?"
Concubine Wan looked up.
It turned out that Chief Steward Qi had already taken all the palace maids and eunuchs out of the palace.
After a passionate embrace, the two of them snuggled up and lay in the large gauze tent.
"Wan'er can't sleep?"
"Did someone bully you?"
Jin Moli reached out and hugged the man into his arms: "Tell me, who bullied you?"
"Don't hide things from me like you did before, and don't hide the grievances to yourself."
Gu Wanting opened her mouth, then closed it again, and shook her head slightly: "No, I didn't bully Wan'er."
"Then why can't Wan'er sleep? Could it be..." Jin Moli stared at her playfully, as if he wanted to do it again.
