Chapter 47
On September 24, the two thousand jackrabbits were finished, and everyone had nothing to do in the remaining days.

Zhang Su was asked to find someone to make mahjong and all of them were sent to the palace.

Although Leng Luoyue wanted everyone to play mahjong first for entertainment and recreation.However, she felt that it would be better to improve the environment of this cold palace first.

On this day, Leng Luoyue gathered everyone together.

21 people stood in two rows, because each of them held thousands of taels of silver in their hands. They were all dressed up brightly, and some even wore gold hairpins on their heads. All of them had rosy faces and looked at each other. None of them look like people who have been relegated to the cold palace.

Leng Luoyue said: "We have all completed our goals for September over time. We don't have to do any work in the next few days. I want everyone to clean up this cold palace. Not to mention how well we have to clean it up, at least let this cold palace see it." Get up clean and tidy, not cluttered.”

As soon as she finished speaking, someone said: "This cold palace is so big and has always looked like this. Why are we cleaning it up? It's a waste of time."

"That's right! I'm too tired to clean it up without saying anything, and outsiders can't see it, so why bother?"

"Can't we just clean up the room we live in?"

Xu Taibin, Liu Meiren, and Wei promised that they didn't say anything. They had been with Leng Luoyue for a long time, and they knew that she had her own intentions in asking them to clean up the cold palace.

After the people who didn't want to do it finished talking, Leng Luoyue said: "Look at the clothes you are wearing, and then look at the makeup on your face. You are so well-dressed and you are walking in tatters, In the messy cold palace, don’t you think this environment seems out of place for you, and doesn’t match your clothes and makeup?”

"Although we are a cold palace here, no matter how well we clean it, outsiders can't see it, but we can see it ourselves! People's mood and state of mind will be affected by the environment. With a good environment, this person's My mood will naturally feel better.”

"No matter what, this cold palace is where most of us will live for the rest of our lives. Once it is tidied up, we can live more comfortably, right?"

"I think Luoyue is right." Lin Liangren shook his head and said, "Think about where we lived before, and then look at this cold palace. We have no conditions and are reluctant to die, so we can only grit our teeth and endure it. Let's live together. Now that we have the conditions, each of us can clean ourselves up beautifully, so naturally the place where we live must be tidied up, and we can no longer make do with it."

"That's right." He Meiren also echoed, "We will live here for most of our lives! If it is tidied up, it will be comfortable for us not only to live in, but also to look at."

Concubine Xu and Meiren Liu both supported Leng Luoyue unconditionally and said directly: "Luoyue, what do you want to do to deal with it? If others don't want to deal with it, we can do it too."

After hearing what she said, the objector whispered: "I didn't say I didn't want to deal with it!"

Leng Luoyue smiled and said: "Since everyone is willing to clean up, let's work harder in the past two days to clean up this cold palace. After cleaning up, I will cook you a delicious food that you have never eaten before, and also I’ll teach you a very fun game.”

"What?" Everyone asked curiously.

Leng Luoyue squinted her eyes and said with a smile: "It will be kept secret for now. You will know after you finish cleaning up."

The more she didn't say anything, the more Xu Taibi and the others wanted to know. In order to eat delicious food they had never eaten before and play particularly interesting games as soon as possible, they all worked very hard.

At the end of September, it was still a bit hot. Leng Luoyue was afraid that they would suffer from heatstroke, so she asked Caiwei to make sour plum soup.

The Queen Mother's birthday was approaching, and princes from all over the country came to Beijing with their edicts.

The late emperor had nine sons, three of whom died young, leaving six sons. The eldest prince was the son of the first empress and died in childbirth with the empress.The second prince is the successor of the current emperor Fengcheng Hannai. He has two sons in total. The second son Fengcheng Ye ranks sixth and is 23 years old.

The third prince, Fengcheng Jue, was given the title of King Jue and the land of Yuanzhou. He was 24 years old.

The fourth prince died young, and the fifth prince died young.The seventh prince, Fengcheng Ming, was named Pluto and was granted the title of Xiangzhou. He was 22 years old.

The eighth prince, Feng Chengyu, was given the title of King Yu and was granted the title of Wuzhou. He was 21 years old.

The Ninth Prince, Feng Chenghong, was eighteen years old. He had not yet reached the crown and had not yet been crowned king. He had been living with his mother and concubine in the Sixth Prince's Mansion in Kyoto.

Except for the Ninth Prince who was originally in Kyoto, other princes entered Kyoto one after another.Naturally, the first thing that the vassal kings from all over the world did after entering the capital was to enter the palace to pay homage to the emperor and the queen mother.

On the afternoon of September 26th, Jue Wang Fengcheng Jue arrived in Kyoto. After briefly freshening up at his residence in Kyoto, he quickly entered the palace.

In the imperial study room, Feng Chenghan, who was dressed in bright yellow, was reviewing the memorial.

Xiao Pingzi walked in with his head lowered and whispered a few words in his master Wang Xin's ear. Wang Xin nodded, walked to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness King Jue is here."

Feng Chenghan raised his eyes and said directly: "Xuan."

Wang Xin flicked the fly whisk in his hand and said loudly: "Xuan, King Jue has an audience."

Wearing a black python robe, a golden crown on his head, nine feet tall, with gentle eyebrows, a pair of upward-looking phoenix eyes, a tall nose, and thin lips, Feng Chengjue walked into the imperial study room.

He looked somewhat similar to Feng Chenghan who was sitting on the dragon chair, but he was a little less cold and a little more gentle than him.

"Your Majesty, Feng Cheng Jue, pays homage to the Emperor. Long live my Emperor." Feng Cheng Jue knelt down in the hall, kowtowed and saluted.

Feng Chenghan put down the ink pen in his hand, a rare smile appeared on his stern face, he raised his hand and said: "Brother Three Emperors, please get up quickly."

When he was young, he played more with the Third Emperor Brother than his younger brothers, so there was still a bit of brotherhood between the two, and he felt a little happy when he saw the Third Emperor Brother.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Feng Chengjue stood up with his hands raised.

Feng Chenghan looked at him and said: "Since the third emperor brother went to the fiefdom, he has become quite different from me, the emperor brother. He doesn't even call me emperor brother anymore and calls himself a minister to me."

Fengcheng Jue smiled warmly, that smile was like the spring breeze in March, making people feel relaxed physically and mentally.

"It's not a matter of birth, it's just that the etiquette between monarch and minister cannot be abolished, and ministers must abide by it." Furthermore, the emperor has already called himself me, how can he dare to call the emperor brother directly and call himself me?
"Is everything going well for the Third Emperor Brother this year?" Feng Chenghan rarely exchanged pleasantries with others.

When the emperor's younger brothers came to pay homage to him, he accepted their greetings directly and sent them to pay homage to the Queen Mother, without ever greeting them.

Fengcheng Jue clasped his hands and said, "Excuse me, Your Majesty, everything is fine. Your Majesty, you are working day and night on state affairs, so you should take care of yourself."

"I will meet you." After Feng Chenghan finished speaking, he glanced at the memorials piled as high as a hill. He originally wanted to have dinner with King Jue in the evening, but after seeing these memorials, he gave up the idea.

"It's getting late. I won't keep you here anymore. You can go to the Queen Mother's Palace to pay homage to the Queen Mother!"

"I excuse myself." After saying that, Feng Chengjue exited the imperial study and went to Xiangyun Palace.
