Several elderly men gathered around, drawn by the commotion. They immediately felt a tingling sensation in their mouths, their saliva glands went into overdrive, and they eagerly stared at Lao Taiye Liu.

Grandfather Liu was helpless and could only take out the soft leather water bag. He said with a hint of pride, "This was prepared by the children at home. The sour plum soup from Baiyun Guan is frozen into ice cubes and put in your bosom, it's very refreshing. Now that it’s melting, drinking it just right."

Everyone nodded eagerly and praised in agreement.

"Liu brother, you're so lucky."

"Yeah, yeah, we're so jealous."

Master Liu then passed out the water bag, and everyone drank generously, each taking a large gulp. The bag was soon emptied.

But the icy, sweet and sour plum soup, like a refreshing rain, instantly quenched their almost parched bodies.

"Delicious, the taste is really good!"

"No wonder the children at home always run to the clouds, this sour plum soup is too authentic."

"If only there was another pot of this."

With renewed spirits and energy, people began to whisper amongst themselves.

Perhaps their wishes were carried to the Emperor and the Crown Prince by the scorching summer wind.

Still, the Emperor and the Crown Prince worried that having a few elderly ministers pass away on such a joyous occasion would bring bad luck.

In short, a little eunuch will come over shortly to pass on the word, and the old ministers can go to the side hall to rest.

"Thanks Your Majesty for your compassion, thanks His Highness the Crown Prince for your care!"

The elders were overjoyed, thanking them one after another, and then went to the side hall under the envious glances of the young officials.

In the distance, Liu Zhiheng watched his father walk with vigor, completely unconcerned about his son. He couldn't help but complain.

"My father really doesn't care about me. If he just pretended to be dizzy right now, I could go with him and take a break too!"

Li Lao'er rolled his eyes and whispered with a playful tone, "Your father probably thinks that you have "

Meat, it’s like barbecue that can last two hours longer than everyone else's, so there's no need to worry!

Several officials nearby were eavesdropping and couldn't help but laugh, their snorts echoing.

They didn't have much chance to meet Li Laoer on a regular day, today they realized this man was so humorous.

But rumors have it that the Li family and Liu family are close, and their deep friendship is indeed true.

Otherwise, Old Li wouldn't be making such a joke. Liu Zhiheng just hummed twice and wasn't bothered at all...

Thus, everyone endured from dawn till dusk, with the fortunate respite of half an hour for midday rest and a meal. The rest of the time was spent in ceaseless kneeling and prostration.

Finally, the Crown Prince, accompanied by the Emperor, appeared in the Golden Hall and took his seat beside the Dragon Throne. Everyone let out a sigh of relief and finally had the chance to truly look at this future emperor.

The young prince, not yet twenty years old, was handsome and composed. He carried himself with dignity and authority, showing no signs of timidity despite having been raised among commoners.

Stands tall and noble, emanating an air of grandeur, like the rising sun about to bring new life and hope to Tianwu.

Especially when compared to the aging emperor beside him, this sharpness was particularly striking.

At this moment, everyone felt that the hard work of the day had been worthwhile.

They would willingly do so for such a king.

And besides Li Laoer and Mr. Wen, Liu Zhiheng, the entire audience was empty.

It can be said that the three of them grew up watching over the crown prince.

The children who used to follow Mr. Jiang were considered diligent and sensible by the villagers.

Later on, Jia Yin was short-staffed and needed help managing her business. This child took on the role of manager, running back and forth between north and south. She oversaw all the branches of Baiyun Inn, as well as the hot pot restaurant, fruit shop, and dessert shop here in Xindu.

At that time, they still thought Jia Yin had a good eye for talent and found a good helper.

Who would have thought, suddenly, Dapeng rose with the wind for a day, soaring straight up ninety thousand miles!

The little boy, the young steward, became a prince, the future emperor of Tianwu!

Occasionally, they would wonder if it was all just a dream.

The prince, perhaps sensing their observations, turned his head and gave them a slight nod.

Three people quickly bowed their heads and performed a respectful bow.

In the Golden Sands, Jia Yin raised her hand to open the window. Sitting on the soft bed, she fanned herself as she enjoyed the cool night breeze.

"At this hour, Second Uncle should have come out of the palace, right"

Shuiling hugged a fruit and munched on it, mumbling, "Almost done, right Conferring a prince isn't like an emperor's enthronement ceremony. Shouldn't people be allowed to sleep"

Watercloud had just finished tidying her sewing box. Hearing this, she tapped the back of Shui's head with a spool of thread and said reproachfully, “How many times have I told you to be careful with your words! If others hear you, they’ll probably start gossiping again that our family is disrespectful!”

"Ouch, it hurts!" Shui Ling covered her head and acted coquettishly, hiding by her master's side, she nervously replied, "This is at home, right If we were outside, I wouldn't say anything."

Shuǐyún reached out and snatched half of her fruit, then started shooing her away, “Go wash up quickly. You only know how to eat. Be careful your teeth rot. No one will take care of you.”

"I'm not eating it! You murderer, be careful you won't get married later! If I had known better, I wouldn't have split the gold bangles with you!" Shui Ling muttered as she went down, making Jia Yin and Shui Yun both laugh.

Sui Yun whispered, "My lady, the crown prince grew up with us at Suijin Tan. He'll definitely take care of Lord Uncle a bit. Don't worry! Miss Baozhu is coming to play tomorrow as well. You should get some rest early."

Jia Yin nodded, “Got it. You guys should sleep too.”

Shuiyun then retreated, leaving Jia Yin bored and entering the space.

These days, with nothing to do, she started counting the inventory in her space.

Especially those well-organized food items and a few remaining medicines.

Deep down, she always had a sense of crisis.

Only when facing these inventories can the pressure in my heart be slightly reduced...

"Sister JiaYin, I'm here! The cutest little pearl has arrived at your house!"

The second day, just after breakfast, Jiayin heard a noise outside the door. In a short while, Baozhu came in, her skirt held up, laughing all the way.

Jia Yin hurried out to greet her and was immediately embraced by Bao Zhu.

"Jia Yin sister, I miss you so much!"

Baozhu has always been so enthusiastic, as if her world had no worries at all.

Even Jia Yin couldn't help but feel envious, but she also couldn't help but want to give her more love.

"I miss you too, Baozhu! I prepared your favorite snacks and fruits, as well as ice cream and sour plum soup. Eat your fill!"

"Woooo, I knew it, Sister JiaYin is the best to me! My mother watches me all day and won't let me eat even one more bite, I'm about to melt!"

"Your mom is doing this for your own good, otherwise, you'd eat ice cream for every meal!"

The two young ladies moved to the backyard, seeking shade under the eaves. They ate and drank while chatting idly.

It's really nothing major, just everyday things like food, clothing and shelter, but we were talking about it quite excitedly.

Nanny Lin secretly glanced at the corner gate and was overjoyed.

She hurriedly sent a message to He Mama, seeing that the carriage at home was going into the city, and she also sent a little girl to tell the eldest young mistress.

Over the past two days, the county princess has been in a bad mood. Everyone in the household has noticed it, but no one knows what to do.

I didn't expect that, Miss Baozhu would come for a visit, have some food and drinks with us, and then the county princess would be happy.

As expected, the little girl still needs friends!

As a result, before their own carriage had left the house, more guests arrived.
