Empress Dowager Zhou tapped her forehead and smiled. “You’re such a glutton. You know better than me what ingredients the imperial kitchen has.”

She gestured for Nanny Gao to do it.

Little Jiajia suddenly said, “Let Zhu Dazhi do it.”

“Who is Zhu Dazhi?” Empress Dowager Zhou asked.

Nanny Gao looked puzzled. She clearly didn’t know either.

Yu Gong entered and happened to hear this. He said uncertainly, “I’ve heard of such a name, but that person is only an apprentice in the imperial kitchen. I wonder if it’s the same person the princess is referring to.”

The apprentices were in charge of washing and cutting vegetables. They were not qualified to be cooks.

Not everyone in the imperial kitchen had the chance to show their faces in front of their masters, let alone a mere apprentice.

Little Jiajia continued to nibble on the pastry. “I don’t know. Don’t ask me. I

don’t even know why I said this name.” Reality and dreams were so annoying.

Reality and dreams were so annoying.

Empress Dowager Zhou watched as she nodded and shook her head. She guessed that Zhu Dazhi had said something to her.

After all, everyone in the palace knew that she and the emperor doted on this girl. If they wanted to stand up for themselves, wouldn’t it be better to have this girl mention it?

The harem was a place where everyone schemed against each other. Everyone tried their best to climb up the social ladder. If it was just a little trickery, she had always turned a blind eye to such things, but she could not tolerate those people targeting her granddaughter.

She glanced at Eunuch Yu, who understood and went to the imperial kitchen with Nanny Gao. 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎

Zhu Dazhi thought to himself, “Look, there’s a big pot flying in the sky.”

Little Jiajia did not know that her words had almost sent Zhu Dazhi to the afterlife. She ate a goose banquet in the Longevity Palace and left the palace in satisfaction and confusion.

In the Duke Jing’an’s residence, Ji Luo was instructing the servants to move the luggage into a carriage.

Little Jiajia’s eyes turned red as she ran over with her short legs. “Mother, are you and Father going out again?”

“There was a flood in Qinghe prefecture. Your Imperial Uncle asked your father to be in charge of disaster relief.” Seeing the tears on her face that were about to fall, Ji Luo smiled and said, “Let your father go alone first. Mother will accompany you at home for a few more days.”

“I can check if you’ve been studying well these days.”

Little Jiajia was shocked. “Mother, why don’t you go with Father?”

Although Little Jiajia had explained the situation, Xuanyuan Ce still felt a strong sense of reluctance when they set off. He inexplicably felt a panic that his soft little daughter would be snatched away at any moment.

Ji Luo was both angry and amused. “Alright, your daughter is smart. Who has the ability to kidnap her?”

Xuanyuan Ce hesitated for a long time. In the end, he sighed and said with a bitter expression, “Ah Luo, during the time I’m not in the residence, if a

good-looking brat comes to look for his daughter, you have to beat him up.” Ji Luo was speechless. “Should I beat Mingler and the others too?”

“Those brats are part of the family, so there’s naturally no need to be wary of them. Besides, how are they good-looking?” Thinking of a certain face, Xuanyuan Ce was furious.

Ji Luo thought that he was a fiend and was stunned. She urged him to leave quickly.

Xuanyuan Ce could only turn around and leave reluctantly.

Ji Luo found it funny and gently stroked Little Jiajia’s sleeping face.

Thinking that her daughter would eventually get married, Ji Luo also felt reluctant. However, compared to letting her stay by their side, she hoped that her daughter would find her own happiness.

The door closed. The little girl lying on the bed suddenly opened her eyes, which were sparkling.

What a good-looking little brother!

“Cousin, quick. Grandmother asked me to bring you into the palace.”

A chubby boy ran into the jade pavilion with his short legs covered in sweat.

Little Jiajia looked up from the pile of books and said weakly, “Didn’t I just enter the palace yesterday?”

She even saw Zhu Dazhi and helped him clear his name.

Zhu Dazhi had also benefited from this disaster. He was now an imperial chef.

The chubby boy stuck out his tongue and panted. He kept gesturing.

Little Jiajia looked at the two youths who were about twelve or thirteen years old in confusion.

One of them smiled and explained, “The commoners offered two cranes to

Father. Because of the auspicious nature of those cranes, Father gave them to

Grandmother. Grandmother said that you would like them and asked us to bring you to the palace to take a look.”

The chubby boy nodded repeatedly, his mouth still chanting.

Little Jiajia suddenly stood up in disbelief.

In the Longevity Palace, Empress Dowager Zhou was surrounded by a few concubines and said flattering words. There was no expression on her face. She thought of something and said faintly, “Jiajia is about to arrive, right? Nanny Gao, go to the imperial kitchen and instruct them to make a few more snacks for the princess..”
