Begging for something

During this period, he arranged for many people to protect him near Chengyuan Villa.

Every day someone comes to report something about the villa.

"It's boring to stay in the house this winter, so I came up with a new gadget. It's almost something, and I came to His Majesty to ask for it."

As soon as she said these words, Emperor Hongwen was startled, and Wang De and other servants beside him were a little dumbfounded.

These ladies can do it.

After all these years in the palace, this is the first time they have seen such capable sisters.

If you need something, you come to ask His Majesty for it. Who gave you the courage?

Wang De looked at Emperor Hongwen with some worry.

"You blessed me, what do you think I am?"

Emperor Hongwen was not angry, but felt that it felt good.

Ever since I was a child, when I was a prince, only some close friends would behave like this, but after I became the emperor, such things never happened again.

It felt like everyone suddenly became more divided.

In fact, in his heart, as long as it's not something that violates his principles or would endanger his rule, he won't care too much about it.

"But what new gadget have you come up with? Can you get one for me too?"

As soon as he said these words, Wang De and all the servants were dumbfounded.

"Of course you can. What I'm doing this time is called mahjong."

Speaking of mahjong, Lu Yaoyao was very interested and introduced it to Emperor Hongwen quickly and simply.

"Interesting and interesting, I must get one for me."

"That's for sure. When the time comes, you can invite your concubines from the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard to sit around and play mahjong together. How good it will feel."

Hearing this, Emperor Hongwen subconsciously fantasized about that scene and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"It's really good. Tell me, what do you want?"

"We need some ivory materials to make mahjong. I only have the pair you gifted me earlier. It's not enough to make one set. Why don't you come and ask your majesty for some."

"That's it? I'll let Wang De take you to my warehouse later. You can take as much as you want."

Emperor Hongwen was quite generous towards Lu Yaoyao.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Emperor Hongwen waved his hand, then straightened his face and said, "Girl, you are a little anxious this time."

"Afraid? Sooner or later, it will happen one day anyway."

Lu Yaoyao knew immediately that the snowflake salt he said was coming out.

"Although it is true to say so, Han Yunas is domineering and insidious. It is still a bit dangerous for you to provoke him like this."

"Danger? This is the capital, your territory. You will definitely protect your daughter, right?"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Hongwen was startled, and then burst into laughter.

He liked this feeling of being trusted very much, especially when facing someone like Lu Yaoyao who would not make him suspicious too much.

He will be more willing to communicate with you easily.

"Of course, if Han Yu dares to touch you, I will kill him."

"That's fine then."

Lu Yaoyao looked relaxed and showed no worry at all.

This made Emperor Hongwen determined not to lose face, especially on his own territory in the capital.

"Prince Ning has returned to the capital. I plan to let him enter the six movies next year for training. I just haven't decided which one he should go to. Wan Fu, do you have any suggestions?"

As soon as these words came out, Wang De and others were shocked and didn't understand why Emperor Hongwen suddenly said this.

“What advice do you suggest?”

"Your Majesty, you are making trouble. I haven't even figured out who is in the six departments."

For Prince Ning, Lu Yaoyao looked down upon him. If she, a guy like her, would have been sent to the sixth department long ago, let's just dream.

Of course it is impossible to say this.

She didn't intend to give any suggestions. It was a matter of the royal family. Why was she meddling in it?

"you"

"You are the princess after all, why don't you even know about the six departments?"

Emperor Hongwen didn't think much about Lu Yaoyao's words. He just said it casually and had no real intention to get any advice from Lu Yaoyao.

"My daughter is a woman, but she cannot engage in politics, so why should I understand this?"

"Just run your own business safely and pay a little more tax for the country."

Well, Emperor Hongwen was speechless. Yes, why should a girl's family worry about such important national affairs?

Talking too much is not good.

"By the way, can you get me a copy of your hot pot recipe?"

"I've been thinking about it these past few days."

"No problem, but the recipe alone is not enough. If you want, arrange for an imperial chef to go to Chennu Villa to study."

"Wang De, you can make arrangements later."

Wang De responded quickly.

Lu Yaoyao sat for a while and then said, "It's getting late, and I have to rush back, so I'll take my leave first."

"Go ahead and be careful on the road."

Afterwards, Lu Yaoyao followed Wang De and left the Imperial Study Room and walked towards Emperor Hongwen's small warehouse.

"Princess Princess."

Lu Yaoyao was stunned and turned to look at Wang De, and asked with a smile: "Is there something wrong, Mr. Wang De?"

Hearing this, Wang De looked around and lowered his voice and said, "The princess is a little bolder today."

"Thank you, Eunuch Wang De, for reminding me. Wanfu will pay attention to it in the future."

Lu Yaoyao still has a favorable impression of Wang De.

In fact, is she really bold?

Maybe, but in her opinion, it's just right.

Sometimes being too polite and too polite is not a good thing. In addition, she is a modern person at heart. She really can't get used to these ancient rules and so on, and she will always go astray.

Instead of going to great lengths to disguise it, make it nondescript, and give people the illusion of having ulterior motives, it's better to be straightforward.

Soon, Lu Yaoyao selected five pairs of large tusks in the small warehouse. They were all larger than her own pair, and they were enough to make three or four pairs of mahjong.

Anyway, it’s here, and if you do more, it will come in handy later.

After leaving the palace, she returned to the Lu family to have dinner, sat for a while, and then set off back to Chengyuan Villa.

Along the way, Qiu Shuang carefully guarded her surroundings, but nothing happened.

"Why has there been no movement from the Han family recently? Have they given up?"

Qiu Yu frowned and was confused.

"Why, you still expect the Han family to come and cause trouble?"

Lu Yaoyao looked at Qiu Yu speechlessly.

Seeing this, Qiu Yu smiled and explained, "No, no, how could this slave think so?"

"This slave just thinks that the Han family may have some other conspiracy."

"What do you care about? Conspiracies and tricks are nothing but paper tigers in the face of absolute strength."

She didn't care too much about whether the Han family had any conspiracy.

First of all, she almost always stayed in the villa and rarely went out. Moreover, there were His Majesty's people near the villa, so even when she went out, she would always be followed by His Majesty's people.

If there were some conspiracy to frame her or something like that, it would be basically useless.

Besides, her people are also keeping an eye on the Lu family. If anything goes wrong, they can handle it in advance.

Of course, the most important point is that Emperor Hongwen was also involved in this matter. Even if the Han family wanted to play, Emperor Hongwen would have to believe it, right?
