Sullen and silent for a moment: "Why is Your Majesty so clear about what I said before entering the palace?"

He was completely knowing what to do. With Yinlongwei in hand, the movement in the capital could not be hidden from Shang Junlin. Since he was selected into the palace, it was normal for him to be investigated.

"I know that the King of Yue once approached you by concealing his identity, and then you had a conflict." Shang Junlin squeezed his depressed chin, turned his head over, and turned to himself, "Ayu, answer my question."

Shang Junlin's eyes were dark, staring at Shen Yu without blinking, and a cold breath swept over him.

He narrowed his eyes in depression and discomfort: "Don't your majesty know my thoughts very well? Why should your majesty care about the king of Yue? What is he? Is there anything in your body that compares to your majesty?"

"As for the matter between me and the King of Yue, Your Majesty must know my temperament very well. How much sincerity can I return to a person who has approached me with impure purposes from the very beginning?"

Shen Yu knew that since Shang Junlin had asked, he must not be able to mediate this matter in his heart. No matter what his current feelings for Shang Junlin were, he did not want the King of Yue to become a thorn in their midst.

The relationship between him and King Yue was completely broken in the previous life, and there will be no involvement in this life.

"I know that King Yue is not a good man," Shang Junlin rubbed his depressed jaw carefully, "Ayu, I don't doubt you, I just..."

"I know," Shen Yu covered Shang Junlin's mouth, "Your Majesty, you don't need to say these things. I should have explained to you about the King of Yue. I said that sentence at the beginning, but it was just to annoy the King of Yue. Now it seems that maybe It is a prophecy uttered in the dark, the only difference is that I am not interested in finding a substitute."

"If I love someone, I will do whatever it takes to get him. Even if I can't get it, I won't do such a shameful thing as finding a substitute. What's more, how can King Yue deserve it?"

There is arrogance and willfulness in Shen Yu's eyes, and Shang Junlin knows that what he says is what he thinks in his heart.

Shang Junlin let go of the hand that clamped Sullen's chin, and suddenly hugged him into his arms: "I see, Ayu."

Shen Yu patted Shang Junlin's back to appease him: "Your Majesty, don't think too much, there is no relationship between King Yue and me, and there will be no follow-up."

Shang Junlin put his head on Shen Yu's shoulder: "Who is Ah Yu's fate?"

"Of course it's His Majesty. With His Majesty here, how can it be someone else's turn? Is His Majesty so unconfident in himself?"

After receiving the accurate answer from Shen Yu, the haze that had been in Shang Junlin's heart for many days was blown away by the wind. He tightened his arms, wishing he could rub the depression into his body.

Seeing Shang Junlin being appeased, Shen Yu was also relieved, he didn't want Yue Wang to be a barrier between them.

Entering summer, the weather is gradually getting hotter. The courtiers got the news that they will go to the summer palace this year, and began to prepare.

I couldn't help being curious while preparing.

"Why did Your Majesty suddenly go to the summer palace this year? A few years ago, some ministers proposed it, but he rejected it."

"Your Majesty never enjoys it, this time it may be because of your lord."

"No matter what the reason is, the previous emperors of Dahuan would go to the summer palace every year, except for our current majesty. To be honest, the summer in the capital is really too hot, and it is fine to go there to escape the summer heat."

The person who spoke was the official who had written to His Majesty several times to go to the palace to escape the summer heat. He thought that he would have to spend the summer in the capital until he left office. He did not expect the surprise to come so suddenly.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the clothes on Shen Yu's body are getting thinner and thinner. His body temperature is still as cool as before, and it is very comfortable to hold him in his arms. Shang Junlin holds him in his arms whenever he has time.

This can be bitter depression.

The man is very angry, but it is okay in winter. It is a big human-shaped heater, and he is nestled in his arms, with a steady stream of heat coming from him, making him very comfortable.

Xia Tian is different, every time he is hugged by Shang Junlin, he will sweat all over his body.

There is a small lake in Yuzhang Palace, and a gazebo was built on the lake. Since the weather got hot, it has become the place that Depression likes the most.

The gazebo was arranged in a brand-new look according to the gloomy preference, with light-colored gauze hanging around it, ice in the corner, and the cool breeze blowing over the water, bringing a burst of coolness.

Shang Junlin returned to Yuzhang Palace after finishing his government affairs, searched around the house but found no one, so he walked straight to the pavilion.

There is always no shortage of ice in the palace, but Doctor Gu said that Shen Yu is not in good health and should not be too greedy for coolness, and there will never be too much ice in the house. Don't look at Shen Yu's chills in winter, but in summer, he is also the one who is most greedy for coolness.

After the gazebo was cleaned up, Shen Yu's most frequented place became here. Shang Junlin lifted the veil and saw Shen Yu half-leaning on the couch reading a book.

Little Eunuch Meng took a fan and gently fanned behind Shen Yu.

The palace servant knelt down to pay his respects, put down the book in his hands, and sat up: "Your Majesty, are you done?"

"Well." Shang Junlin walked to Shen Yu's side and sat down next to him. When arranging the gazebo, due to space constraints, the soft couch placed inside was much smaller than the one in Yuzhang Palace, and Shang Junlin was satisfied. Once a small wish.

As soon as Shang Junlin leaned over, he brought a gust of heat, depressed and hid to the side, but was grabbed by the man.

"Where is Ayu hiding?"

"It's so hot." Sullen refused to cling to Shang Junlin.

"There's ice in the pavilion, let me hug you for a while." Shang Junlin held the gloomi waist firmly with one hand, not letting him leave.

"Doesn't Your Majesty feel hot?" He was depressed and helpless.

Shang Junlin rubbed his cheek: "Ah Yu is very cold."

"But Your Majesty is very hot." Sullen leaned out, trying to stay away from the man.

"Ayu Dongdong still likes to sneak into my arms, why did you start to dislike him again?" Shang Junlin pressed the depressed back and pressed him into his arms.

Sullen gave up struggling, half lying in the man's arms, "Your Majesty also knows that it is winter."

There was ice in the gazebo, but it wasn’t that hot. I lay down depressed and quiet for a while, and the temperature on my body slowly dropped. I knew that the man would not let me go, so I simply found a comfortable position to nest, and took the Continue to read the book.

"How is the recent ice usage in your house?" Shang Junlin asked Mu Xi, who was waiting on the sidelines.

Mu Xi said the quantity, which was strictly in accordance with Shang Junlin's instructions, and Shang Junlin nodded in satisfaction.

Shen Yu bumped his head on the man's chest rather speechlessly: "Your Majesty has already ordered the people in my palace to die, and you are still worried that I will use more ice?"

"Ah Yu, have you forgotten the last time you almost caught a cold because of your greed for cool?" Shang Junlin pinched his earlobe.

He bowed his head depressed and guilty. The weather suddenly became hot in those few days, and he couldn't bear it, so he asked the palace servants to put more ice in the bedroom. If Shang Junlin hadn't found out in time to remove some, he would probably get sick because of his greed for cold . After that time, Shang Junlin strictly controlled the amount of ice used in his palace.

Shen Yu read the script for a while, and suddenly remembered something, "Your Majesty, is it true that only powerful families in the capital can use ice?"

"Some big merchants can do it too, why?"

Most of the ice used by Dahuan in summer is to store ice. Not to mention the huge project volume, not many can be preserved. Some capable families will store ice by themselves. Those who do not have this condition will choose to buy, but because of the quantity, the price It is often more expensive, and ordinary people rarely buy it.

"I just suddenly thought of a method of making ice, and it is very simple. If I can measure the ice making, the people of Dahuan can use it." Shen Yu said the method from that book, as the protagonist of the book One of Shen Qingran's golden fingers brought him some benefits.

"What method?" Shang Junlin became interested.

"When saltpeter is dissolved in water, ice can be obtained."

Shen Yu ordered people to fetch saltpeter and water, tested it, and sure enough, he got ice.

Looking at the freshly baked ice in the cold, a complicated look flashed in the gloomy eyes.

After getting this method in the previous life, King Yue immediately killed everyone who knew it, and then arranged a group of dumb slaves to make ice for him, and then sold it at a high price.

In his previous life, Shen Yu didn't know how to make ice so simple. When he knew that King Yue used dumb slaves to make ice, he thought there was some ulterior secret in it.

"This method is really convenient." Shang Junlin felt it, and the newly made ice was not much different from the stored ice. Compared with storing ice in winter and keeping it in summer, saltpeter was much easier.

"With this method, ordinary people can use ice in summer." Mu Xi was so shocked by this scene that he couldn't close his mouth.

The thing was given to Shang Junlin, and Shen Yu didn't care about it. How Shang Junlin used it was his business, as long as he didn't become a money-making tool like the king of Yue in the end.

He knew that Shang Junlin would not, otherwise he would not have taken these things out.

Shen Yu wiped her hands and lay back on the couch again. There was an extra basin of ice in the gazebo, making it even cooler.

The palace people kept looking at the newly made ice, with unstoppable curiosity in their eyes, Shang Junlin also stood beside the ice and looked at it for a while before sitting back on the couch again.

Once the news of the new ice-making method was announced, it caused an uproar in the court. Everyone has experienced how hot the capital is in summer. Those who have the ability to store ice will definitely store more in winter. Those who do not have this condition, want to use it. Ice can only be purchased at a high price in summer. If ice can be made in summer, it will bring greater convenience.

"I haven't released the recipe to the public for the time being." Shang Junlin changed his court clothes and became depressed. "Let the court control it for a period of time. If the conditions are ripe in the future, we will see if we want to make it public."

Unified pricing by the imperial court can prevent the produced ice from falling into the hands of a small number of powerful families and become a sharp weapon for them to make money. It can also prevent some unscrupulous merchants from selling the produced ice at high prices to other places in Dahuan.

"Your Majesty just decides." Shen Yu had no opinion.

The day to go to the Summer Palace was confirmed, and Yuzhang Palace became busy.

A mighty group of people went to the summer resort, and Shen Yu was directly arranged at Shang Junlin's residence.

The Summer Palace is built on the mountainside, and you can feel a burst of coolness as soon as you come up, and you squint your eyes in depression and comfort.

"Hasn't Your Majesty arranged a place for me?" Shen Yu looked at the surrounding layout, and there were many things that were obviously only used by emperors.

"Ah Yu naturally wants to live with me." Shang Junlin didn't give him a chance to refuse, and directly picked him up and walked inside.

The palace people lowered their heads and did their own thing without squinting.

Sullen is already used to Shang Junlin hugging him around at every turn, wrapping his arms around the man's neck familiarly, and gently blowing in his ear:

"I've been living here with His Majesty, those ministers won't say anything, will they?"

Shang Junlin paused, his eyes darkened, he quickly put him on the bed, and brushed his fingers across his cheeks: "Then Ayu should behave better."
