The most favored imperial concubine in the harem was none other than Imperial Concubine Shu. She had never fallen out of favor since she entered the palace. Only, after His Majesty returned from his trip to Jiangnan, he had become obsessed with alchemy and seemed to have lost his interest in women for the time being. Once upon a time, His Majesty rested in her palace for five or six days every month.

Imperial Concubine Shu smiled faintly when she heard this. "All right, let's go then."

"Yes!" The eunuch cast the palace servants a meaningful glance to take along the bucket of glutinous rice mortar with them to the Taiye Lake.

The weather was fine.

When Imperial Concubine Shu arrived at the pavilion of Taiye Lake, other imperial concubines had already arrived too.

This was nothing surprising. His Majesty hadn't been in the harem for such a long time. Suddenly, there was a crack on the egg, which fly wouldn’t eye it?

But to Imperial Concubine Shu's surprise, the Empress and Imperial Consort Zhuang were also here.

These two people did not need to compete for favor in the harem, not to mention that His Majesty had been going to the Empress’s Kunning Palace these days. Why did the Empress still have to come out and divide the Emperor with the imperial concubines at this time?

However, Imperial Concubine Shu wasn’t here to compete for favor today, and she didn’t mind the crowd.

She went forward and saluted the Emperor and Empress Xiao, "Your Majesty, the Emperor and Empress.”

Empress Xiao seemed to be in a good mood and gave her a smile.

The Emperor raised his hand, "You may rise."

Imperial Concubine Shu also saluted Imperial Consort Zhuang in greeting.

Imperial Consort Zhuang got up and responded briefly.

After that, Imperial Concubine Yu and other imperial concubines all bowed to Imperial Concubine Shu.

Imperial Concubine Yu automatically gave up her position, and Eunuch Wei went to fetch Imperial Concubine Yu another chair.

Imperial Concubine Shu didn't hurry to sit down, but stood in front of the Emperor and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, this imperial concubine subject has something to offer to Your Majesty."

"Oh?" The Emperor took a sip of tea.

Imperial Concubine Shu asked the eunuchs to bring up several pieces of gray bricks that were bonded separately.

Everyone could not help looking at the gray bricks with a look of astonishment and confusion.

The Emperor looked puzzled, "Imperial Concubine Shu… is offering Zhen bricks?"

Imperial Concubine Shu covered her lower face with a handkerchief and said with a hint of a smile, "It's not the bricks, it's the mortar in these bricks."

She explained how the Fifth Prince thought of using glutinous rice as mortar last night.

After finished speaking, she couldn't hide her smile as she stood on her spot, waiting for the Emperor's words of praise.

However, the Emperor did not speak.

The pavilion suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

Everyone, including Empress Xiao, Imperial Consort Zhuang, and other imperial concubines, looked at her with a change in expression.

Imperial Concubine Shu didn't understand what was going on. She looked at Empress Xiao and Imperial Consort Zhuang and the rest of the imperial concubines before asking, "Everyone… Is something the matter?"

Empress Xiao’s brows were slightly furrowed.

Imperial Consort Zhuang, on the other hand, covered his mouth with a chuckle.

Imperial Concubine Shu looked solemnly at Imperial Consort Zhuang, "What is Imperial Consort laughing at?"

Imperial Consort Zhuang couldn't help chuckling again, and then she pointed to a bucket near Imperial Concubine Yu's feet, asking, "Are you talking about this mortar?"

Imperial Concubine Shu looked at it and was stunned.

That color looked like glutinous rice mortar!

How come?

She looked back at one of the eunuchs she had brought along. Yes, the bucket of mortar was still in his hand, so where did this bucket of mortar come from?

Just as this question flashed in her mind, she heard a little voice.

She looked back, only to find that on the bridge in the Taiye Lake, three small beans were crouching down on the wooden bridge and mixing mortar!

The three of them had a good time playing, unaware that they were being watched by the Emperor and imperial wives and concubines.

The cause of the incident had to start with the eunuch in the East Palace secretly telling Empress Xiao that Qin Chuyu was playing with mud.

Hearing his precious son crouching on the ground and mixing mud like a country boy, Empress Xiao almost could not breathe.

She went to find her son angrily, but the three of them were no longer in the East Palace. It took a long time to find them in the vicinity of the Qinzheng Palace Hall.

At that time, Qin Chuyu and his little partners were carrying small buckets, patching walls for the Emperor.

Empress Xiao looked at the huge stone wall with coiled dragon engraving on it of Qinzheng Palace Hall, which had been coated with mortar in a mess. She almost collapsed on the spot, "You, what are you all doing?"

Little Jing Kong was patching the stone wall with a small brush. He turned to her and answered, "The wall is cracked. We’re repairing it."

Gu Jiao always repaired roofs and patched walls for their neighbors, and Little Jing Kong's fingers had long been itching to do it too.

But there was no wall to patch at home.

Seeing many broken walls here, he immediately wanted to repair them.

Empress Xiao: It's not cracked! It's an engraving! It's a historical relic! It's a stone wall passed down by the Founding Emperor which was said to have blocked the landslide rocks for him!

Hence, it was also known as Coiled Dragon Stone!

What was even more tragic was that it wasn’t just the Coiled Dragon Stone that they covered with mortar, but also the other walls of the Emperor. All the way, the three people patched every wall they saw.

Thanks to Little Jing Kong's appearance, Empress Xiao managed not to faint on the spot.

Empress Xiao didn’t bother to further lecture her son and his little playmates for now as she quickly had the mortar on the Coiled Dragon Stone removed.

It was actually quite easy to remove mortar, simply pry it off with a dagger or shovel. However, this time, for some reason, the mortar couldn’t be pried off.

Empress Xiao realized that his son had committed a catastrophe. She thought for a while, but it was really impossible to find someone else to take the blame for him. Then, the Emperor came.

The three little men were caught red-handed!

Empress Xiao was scared to death!

But the Emperor didn't punish the three children.

It was the little miracle physician's younger brother, the Emperor, of course, wasn’t willing to punish him. Though his dragon egg did hurt to death when he looked at the ruined Coiled Dragon Stone.

But he soon discovered that there was something wrong with this mortar. Strictly speaking, it was quite a wonder.

How could there be such a strong mortar?

Little Seven didn't have the brain to come up with this. The Emperor directly skipped Qin Chuyu and asked Little Jing Kong and Xu Zhouzhou, the youngest son of the Minister of the Ministry of War, "Where did you get your mortar?"

Little Jing Kong tilted his head and replied, "We made it ourselves!"

The Emperor was quite surprised, "You guys actually made this?"

Little Jing Kong said seriously, "JiaoJiao often makes it! I learned how to make it from JiaoJiao!"

The Emperor looked at Little Jing Kong and then at the ruined Coiled Dragon Stone, and suddenly laughed like a fool.

Empress Xiao seriously suspected that he had gone crazy from anger.

After that was the present.

The mortar of the three small beans was used up, and they came here to make new ones.
