Xiang Song raised his head and saw that the emperor was no longer in the imperial garden. He pointed in the direction of the imperial study: "You go to the imperial study. The emperor is in a good mood today. He won't blame you even if you say something wrong."

"Miss Jiang sent Cangyun to inquire about the Ministry of Etiquette of the previous dynasty. I'm going to help find the list. You can help me report to the emperor."

After Xiang Yang finished speaking, he ran away quickly before Xiang Song could answer.

"You... brat have become smarter this time." Xiang Song shook his head with a smile and walked towards the royal study.

"Is she trying to clear the grievances of the Su family?"

In the imperial study room, after listening to Xiang Song's words, Xiao Jingzhao fell into deep thought.

He has sent people to investigate, but the evidence is missing. If he wants to overturn the case, he must find strong evidence.

Xiang Song's eyes lit up, "Your Majesty, Miss Jiang will look for the people involved in the case. Let's give her the list first. Maybe Miss Jiang has a clever idea. If not, it's not impossible for my subordinates to find ways to provide some evidence."

"Okay, I'll leave this to you."

Xiao Jingzhao took out a booklet from the drawer under the imperial desk.

"The names of the entire etiquette department are in it. Half of the people there have resigned and gone home. Remember to remind her."

Xiang Song took the order and left.

Xiao Jingzhao returned to his dormitory to take a shower, changed into regular clothes, and walked to Cining Palace.

As soon as one foot stepped through the palace door, I heard Chang Le's laughter coming from the garden.

"Big sister, don't hide. Let me hit one. The snowballs are so small that they won't hurt you."

Yonghe the cat was hiding behind a pine tree. There was a thick layer of snow on the pine tree, and the branches were weighed down.

Yonghe was silent, Changle didn't know where his sister was hiding, and the snowballs in his hands were flying around like meteors.

Listening to the laughter of his sister having a snowball fight, Xiao Jingzhao walked towards the garden.

The snow under my feet was trampled "crack-crack", and suddenly, a snowball flew towards me.

Xiao Jingzhao turned sideways slightly, and the snowballs flew behind him.

"Ouch! Your Majesty, be careful."

Xiao Jingzhao turned around and saw Eunuch Ma covering his head, with snow slag hanging on the tip of his nose and in front of his clothes.

Hearing the cry, Changle ran over quickly. Seeing Eunuch Ma's appearance, he suppressed his laughter and apologized quickly: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hit you."

How dare Eunuch Ma ask the princess to apologize to him, he quickly bowed and said: "Princess, you are welcome, the snowball is so small, how can it hurt the slave? It was too sudden, the slave was just shocked, the princess must not blame herself."

Seeing that Eunuch Ma only had a faint red mark on his forehead, Chang Le looked up at Xiao Jingzhao again, "Second brother, I, I really didn't mean it. I asked Zhu'er to bring the ointment and send it over later."

Looking at Changle's red face, the snow residue on his hair, and the guilty look in his eyes.

Xiao Jingzhao said: "It's almost enough to play for a while. Don't catch a cold."

The tone was gentle, without the harshness before, and Changle immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He raised his little face and said with a smile: "I'm dressed warmly and won't catch a cold. Second brother, do you want to play with us?"

I heard my sister climbing up the pole.

Yonghe quickly came over from behind the tree and saluted: "Second brother is here."

Then he pulled Chang Le's sleeves and said, "Second brother is busy with government affairs and has no time to play with you. Follow me back to the palace to change clothes."

Changle pouted and reluctantly followed his sister.

Xiao Jingzhao suddenly remembered that Changle should be in the academy at this time.

He quickly shouted: "Changle, wait a minute."

"Second brother has changed his mind and wants to have a snowball fight? Changle turned back suddenly, his eyes shining.

"Why didn't you go to the academy today?"

"Didn't anyone report this to Second Brother? It snowed heavily last night, and the academy asked everyone to go home."

Xiao Jingzhao's eyes flashed with joy, "Is Suisui going home too?"

Changle nodded once and then shook his head, "Su Nan took him back to Master Su. Sister Jiang is very busy. Su Nan said he can take care of Sui Sui well."

"Did you want to take him back to the palace last night?" Xiao Jingzhao could guess with his toes that Chang Le must have followed him outside the palace.

Changle didn't hide anything, and angrily explained how he followed her outside the palace and how he had a fight with Sunan.

"That guy from Su Nan was so angry with me. I said I would take Sui Sui back to the palace to stay overnight. He said there are differences between men and women, and it would be most suitable for Sui Sui to live with him."

"A suitable... ghost. He has always been with his second brother when he lived in the palace every year. I think he did it on purpose."

Changle's cheeks bulged, but luckily Yonghe pinched her wrist at the right time, so the word 'fart' didn't come out of her mouth.

"I got it. Go back to the palace and rest. Su Nan means no harm. He treats Sui Sui very well. Don't bully others in the future."

Changle: "..." Who does this brother belong to? Where did the second brother's elbow go?

Xiao Jingzhao knew very well what kind of temper his sister was like. He didn't believe in any quarrels or anything like that. It must have been Su Nan who was trying to reason with her, and Chang Le was too impatient if he couldn't reason with her.

Xiao Jingzhao had the royal meal delivered to Cining Palace.

The Queen Mother was amazed when she looked at the green vegetables on the exquisite porcelain plate on the table.

"Yue Niang is really a strange woman. If you look at Wanling, you won't be able to find another woman like her at home and abroad."

Aunt Cai didn't know what the Empress Dowager meant. She helped the Empress Dowager lay out a chopstick of cabbage and echoed:

"No, let's just talk about this baby cabbage. When the climate in the capital becomes cold, nothing can be grown in the fields. Not to mention that this variety has never been seen in Yannan. These green leaves are delicious to me."

The Queen Mother glanced at Xiao Jingzhao and said, "Who can say otherwise? A woman like Yueniang can't be found even with a lantern."

"My dear, don't be anxious. Miss Jiang is the young master's biological mother. This is a fact that no one can change."

Xiao Jingzhao listened quietly to his mother singing harmony with Aunt Cai, and ate her meal gracefully, as if the matter discussed had nothing to do with him.

With fresh vegetables, Xiao Jingzhao ate half a bowl more rice.

Eunuch Ma saw this and secretly cursed in his heart, "The emperor has an excellent appetite, and he deserves a lot of credit from the deputy commander."

After leaving Cining Palace, Xiao Jingzhao ordered Eunuch Ma to send Xiang Yang to the Imperial Study Room.

Eunuch Ma was slightly stunned, "Your Majesty, Chief Lin said that strenuous exercise should not be done after meals."

Xiao Jingzhao paused slightly, "I didn't ask him to come over to practice."

"Slave, go right away."

It is said that Gao Mu and Zhang Cai delivered the dishes to Juxian Pavilion.

When Hu Qing saw the vegetables arrived, he immediately added the name of the dish to the menu.

The first diners to order saw the menu and pricing, and the price of bok choy was higher than that of meat dishes.

The diner asked in disbelief: "There are no green leafy vegetables in this season. Is there a mistake on the menu? Besides, the price of this vegetarian stir-fried cabbage is a few cents more expensive than the meat dish."

Hu Qing said with a smile on his face: "The guest officer is half right. There are indeed no green leafy vegetables for sale in the market this season. Our Juxian Pavilion spends a lot of money to grow fresh vegetables. This is why this dish is more expensive than meat dishes." ”

The diners nodded repeatedly, with doubts in their eyes.

Hu Qing asked the waiter to carry a basket of cabbage and place it in the front hall.

Things are rare and valuable, and in just one day, all the cabbage in the restaurant was sold.
