“Are you betting on me?” Gu Chengrui glanced at the two of them and said angrily.

“You can say so. I won a hundred taels of silver, and I’ll treat you to some fish pot later.

“I’ve been thinking about it for five years. I heard it reopened recently, so I’ll take you there to try it.”

“Is it really that delicious?”

“Of course, it’s all sea fish that is fresh. I guarantee that you’ll want to eat it again after eating it once.”

“You’re such a foodie.” The Emperor looked at Zhou Huaiming in annoyance. “Who doesn’t like to eat delicious food?” Zhou Huaiming replied righteously. “It’s getting late. Let’s go and see the little princess. We haven’t seen her since she was born.”

“Speaking of children, you’re not young anymore. Shouldn’t you get married?”

“Marry, marry, marry. I’ll marry when I find someone suitable.”

“I’m serious.”

“I’m not joking either.”

“Alright, I’ll give you a good room for a year. If you’re still single after a year, don’t blame me for bestowing you with a marriage.”

“Wait, I…” When Zhou Huaiming said this, he saw the sinister look in the Emperor’s eyes and said with grievance, “Alright, one year.”

After saying that, the three followed Eunuch Qian to the Phoenix Palace.

When everyone saw them enter, they immediately stood up and bowed to the Emperor.

Then, Zhou Huaiming and Gu Chengrui bowed to the Empress Dowager and the Empress.

Seeing that the little princess was lying in the cradle and blowing bubbles, the Emperor brought Zhou Huaiming and Gu Chengrui over.

“Why is the little princess’ skin so red?” Zhou Huaiming asked in surprise.

“You don’t understand, right? Red means that the child’s skin is fair and thin. “If it’s fair and tender now, it’ll get darker and darker when she grows older.” Gu Chengrui said.

“There’s such a thing?” Zhou Huaiming asked curiously.

“That’s true. Children who have red skin will turn fair when they grow up.” The Empress Dowager echoed.

“By the way, Emperor, where are your other uncles and brothers? Why are only the three of you here?”

“They’re at my father’s place. They’ll probably come over when it’s mealtime.” The Emperor said.

“Alright.” The Empress Dowager nodded.

Zhou Ying noticed that Mingyu was staring at Zhou Huaiming. She turned her arm and whispered, “How is it? Brother Zhou isn’t bad-looking, right?”

After being exposed, Mingyu blushed. “Don’t spout nonsense. I just didn’t expect him to not know about children’s red skin.”

“Stubborn. Go back and think about it. He’s not young anymore. It’ll be too late to regret it if you miss it.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she did not say anything else.

After chatting for a while, the Emperor brought Zhou Huaiming and Gu

Chengrui to the east wing of the courtyard.

Soon, it was noon.

After setting the table, the Empress asked Qing Tao to bring out the cake. “This is the cake that Mrs. Gu made for the little princess. Everyone, take a look and try it.”

“Cake? What is it?” Old Consort An asked.

The Empress Dowager hurriedly explained it to everyone.

Everyone immediately gathered around curiously.

When Qing Tao saw this, she immediately asked someone to bring the cake over. When Qing Tao took off the cover, everyone’s eyes lit up.

One was the cream-framed pattern on the cake, and the other was the fruit cubes soaked in honey. The red, yellow, and green looked very beautiful. “These, these are all fruits?” Old Consort An looked at Zhou Ying in surprise. “Yes, the red ones are cherries, the yellow ones are oranges, and the green ones are dates soaked in honey.”

“No wonder it was preserved so well..”
