On this day, it began to rain lightly in Kyoto.

At noon, Shen Qinglan sat under the eaves of the main hall, grilling meat with Yan'er around the charcoal basin.

"Princess, can you see if this meat is cooked?" Yan'er asked.

"Well, it's done."

Shen Qinglan sprinkled some secret seasoning on the meat, and put it on Yan'er's plate with a small clip.

"Try it quickly, if it's delicious."

Yan'er put the piece of barbecue into her mouth, nodded her head and said in praise: "Mmm, it's delicious!"

"Let's bake more and call everyone over later." Shen Qinglan said.

"Uh-huh."

The two continued to barbecue under the eaves, and after a while, the rain gradually became heavier.

"Ah... good!" Tao Guan'er agreed.

"My lord, are you sure you don't want to tell me? That's all, I'll ask someone to prepare the soup."

Shen Qinglan stood up, Zhao Shun quickly grabbed her and said, "Today, my father came to Qinxian Hall to look for me."

"What happened?" Shen Qinglan asked.

"Thank you, princess!" Everyone said in unison.

Hearing that the princess was having a barbecue, Tao Guan'er and Yuan Zi also ran to Jialan Residence.

Zhao Shun said, let go of his arms, and picked up the teacup on the table.

Yan'er called all the little girls and servants from Jialanju over to taste the freshly roasted meat.

"Princess, Miss Biao went out again today." Yan'er said.

"Going out in the rain?" Shen Qinglan was puzzled.

"Yes, princess, your fruit tea is really delicious! I have never had such delicious fruit tea before!" said Ning'er, a little girl from Jialanju.

Yan'er nodded, "Yes, this servant understands. Wangfei, the Empress Dowager, do you want to ease the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law between you and Princess Heng?"

"Yes."

"Thank you, princess!"

"Why is there a lantern festival when it's raining? Isn't this a joke?" Shen Qinglan said.

"Princess, this subordinate also wants to eat." Yuanzi pursed his lips after saying that, looking a little embarrassed.

"Drink more if it tastes good, there's still plenty!" Shen Qinglan said with a smile.

"Well, you can take them back and give Ji Fan and the others a taste," Shen Qinglan said.

"Well, it's really delicious!"

"Since Mother Zhou fell ill, Sister Yanyan has been going out more and more frequently. It will be troublesome if outsiders find out." Shen Qinglan said.

"Sister Shen, can we bring some barbecue back later?" Tao Guaner asked.

"In the past few times, every time I went to Zhanghua Palace, the Empress Dowager would call Princess Shangheng, which should be the meaning."

"Hmm... by the way, Wangfei, you have an appointment with the Empress Dowager to visit her old man in the palace tomorrow, do we need to bring anything else?" Yan'er asked.

After a while, everyone in Jialanju gathered around, eating barbecue and drinking fruit tea under the eaves of the main hall.

Shen Qinglan roasted a lot of meat, until everyone couldn't eat any more, and continued to put meat on the barbed wire.

"Yes, princess, this is the best meat this slave has ever eaten!"

"You have been lying low in front of Princess Heng, and you have to please the Empress Dowager. The servants are exhausted for you. Princess, you are really wronged." Yan'er said.

"My lord, what's wrong?"

"No, nothing, I just want to keep you safe."

"Princess, this is so delicious, even more delicious than the usual meat!"

Seeing her dull expression, not knowing what she was thinking, Yan'er asked: "Princess, what's wrong with you?"

"Sister Shen, I want to eat too, can you give me one?" Tao Guan'er said with a smile.

"Yes, but Miss Biao insisted on going, so Xiangying had no choice but to follow." Yan'er said.

"Daliang Xiaoliang, you go to gather two more charcoal basins, put on the iron net, Guo'er Xing'er, you go and chop some meat and vegetables." Yan'er ordered.

"You only serve the princess. I don't know that the princess can make a lot of things! During the hottest summer, the princess made us smoothies of various flavors. The ice is cold, and the heat dissipates immediately after eating. It's very comfortable!" Fu'er said.

Everyone praised the delicious barbecue, Shen Qinglan grilled some more, and said: "It's raining today, everyone put down all the work, and wait for the weather to clear up. Let's eat barbecue today!"

Remembering that the Dragon Boat Festival was coming, Shen Qinglan took a deep breath. Although everything was ready, she still felt a little flustered.

Seeing that his complexion was not good, Shen Qinglan sent everyone out.

"Really? Princess, I also want to eat that... ice... smoothie, is that okay?" Ning'er said.

Shen Qinglan poured her a cup of fruit tea and said, "What's wrong with this? The barbecue is ready, call everyone over."

With the two of them to help with the barbecue, Shen Qinglan was also happy to be at leisure, directing the people who were full to wrap the barbecue with oiled paper, and sent out one by one.

"I heard from Xiangying next to Ms. Biao that His Highness the Fifth Highness invited Ms. Biao to go to the river to play. Isn't this the Dragon Boat Festival? It seems that there are lantern festivals on both sides of the river these days." Yan'er said.

"No, you teased me so much last time, and you still want to eat my barbecue? Unless, you roasted all the ten catties of meat!" Shen Qinglan pointed to the beef on the ground.

"The rain has stopped now, and everyone is full. You will send these barbecues to other courtyards later. Please have a taste." Shen Qinglan said.

"Everyone, don't worry, you must eat slowly. You will feel uncomfortable after eating barbecue." Shen Qinglan said.

Everyone came over to help with the barbecue, while Fu'er and Guo'er made fruit tea and prepared to distribute it to other people in the courtyard.

"Thank you, Sister Shen!" Tao Guan'er said with a smile.

In the evening, Zhao Shun returned to the mansion and went directly to Jialan Residence.

"Okay, in summer, there will be people in our whole house!" Shen Qinglan said.

Zhao Shun hugged her directly, "Sisi...I..."

Yuanzi and Taoguaner roasted and ate until dark, and ten catties of meat were all roasted.

"Okay, no problem." Yuanzi said.

Shen Qinglan smiled, and put all the roasted meat on a plate aside.

"I heard that Princess Heng is going to go tomorrow, and the things we give must not be inferior to Princess Heng." Shen Qinglan said.

"okay!"

"His Royal Highness Prince Heng? Did he say anything?" Shen Qinglan asked.

Zhao Shun sighed softly, "Father said that for the sake of my mother and concubine, I would let His Highness Six inherit the throne, because His Highness has the blood of the Jiang family on his body. Oh, I didn't expect that after so many years The first time my father took the initiative to mention my concubine mother was because of the throne."

"Could it be...the queen mother?" The first thing Shen Qinglan thought of was that the queen mother found King Heng, mentioned what happened back then, and asked him to put pressure on Zhao Shun.

"What right does he have to mention my mother and concubine? If it wasn't because he doted on his concubine and killed his wife, how could my mother and concubine have passed away at such a young age? Now, in order to curry favor with the queen mother, he even uses the Jiang family as an excuse. It's ridiculous... " Zhao Shun said coldly.

"Perhaps, the father is guilty of the mother and concubine, so he favors the Jiang family." Shen Qinglan said.
