Chapter 643 Eating Pears on the Swing
Liang Chongyue did see this scene, but the puppy was busy at the moment. No matter how worried Yun Ling was, she could only wait until the matter was over and then give the puppy more food.
At dinner time, Liang Chongyue read books all afternoon and stayed in the hall filled with ice for a long time. He had no appetite at all. After eating for a while, he went out for a walk while it was not hot at night.
The temperature outside was not much better even at night, and it was still a bit hot, but it was better than staying in the Yangxin Palace all the time. The cool breeze blowing from the ice made Liang Chongyue's bones cold.
Walking in the imperial garden, Liang Chongyue waved away the people around him and just wanted to walk alone. A dark shadow fell from beside him. Liang Chongyue knew who the person next to him was without even raising his eyelids.
"There are many mosquitoes at night. Your Majesty, please take this insect repellent sachet with you."
Fei He took out a moon-white sachet from his sleeve and looked at her with a asking look.
Liang Chongyue smelled that the herbs in the sachet were indeed used to repel insects, so he nodded silently in agreement.
Fei He knelt on one knee and began to tie the insect repellent sachet on His Majesty.
The moon-white sachet perfectly matched her outfit today. Under the boundless white moonlight, she was as beautiful as Chang'e in the moon.
"Come for a walk with me."
Fei He was arranged by her to go out and do something, and he would not suddenly appear unless there was a result. Now that he appears, it must mean that the matter has come to a conclusion.
But she was feeling a little bored now, and didn't want to look at those things, nor did she want to pay attention to them.
"It is my honor."
Liang Chongyue had just taken two steps when he felt like something was missing. He turned around and said to Fei He:
"Take off the mask. Wearing a mask is really a disservice to your face."
Fei He was extremely handsome. When he took off the mask, the dark blue marks on his face ran along the mask straps across his cheeks. When he looked into his deep eyes, he always felt tempted to commit a crime.
"The moon is beautiful tonight. I will accompany Your Majesty to sit on the swing in front."
Liang Chongyue thought Fei He would ask her if she wanted to drink, but she never expected that he would start talking about the swing that only children played with.
"Okay, let's go."
Liang Chongyue knew where the swing was set. After there were fewer beauties in the palace, although the swing was cleaned every day, it was obvious that no one had played on it for a long time.
Liang Chongyue chose a cleaner spot and sat down. Without anyone pushing her from behind, she began to swing slowly.
The evening breeze, which had been a bit hot just now, had now become gentler. The faster the swing swung, the cooler the wind that brushed past his ears became, blowing away all the things that Liang Chongyue didn't want to hear.
"Your Majesty, the pear trees in the Imperial Garden have borne fruit. An Jiu tasted one the night before and said it was very juicy. Would Your Majesty like to try some?"
Fei He took out a pear from behind him like a magic trick. The light was dim at night and there were no lights in the imperial garden. Liang Chongyue took a look at it in the moonlight and found that the pear was indeed not the one usually offered in front of the emperor.
Seeing that the skin of the pear in Fei He's hand was a little ugly, not as good as the beautiful pears offered in front of the emperor, Liang Chongyue recalled her life in Guanzhong last year. The summer in Guanzhong was also so hot and unbearable. She had ice cubes in her room, but because of the limited quantity, she could not put out several jars like in the palace.
The basin of ice that night was of little use, and after a few days, Liang Chongyue stopped using the ice.
In the capital, ice is used for eating and cooling, but outside the capital, such distinction is rarely made elsewhere.
She was suddenly sent to Guanzhong by her scumbag father. In the summer in Guanzhong, ice was a rare commodity, and the generals defending Guanzhong did not have much ice stored at home. So she ordered people to freeze the ice cubes sent to her with fruit, and then mix the melted ice water into the mung bean soup delivered to the canal every day.
Mung bean soup was sent to the canal to help the people who were building the national canal cool down. Iced fruit was also placed aside for the people to take.
Every day when she strolled along the canal, she would pick up a pear to eat from time to time. The chilled pears helped to cool her down and were sweeter than the ones she had eaten in the palace.
"Give it to me to try."
Recalling the past, the pear he got was not frozen. After slowing down the swing, Liang Chongyue took a bite of the pear. It was indeed juicy, and the sweet taste diluted the depression of summer and made people feel comfortable.
"The pears are good, and An Jiu knows how to eat them."
Seeing the pear that His Majesty had bitten sparkling in the moonlight, Fei He lowered his head and smiled, then took a pear and stood aside to accompany His Majesty in biting it.
Liang Chongyue sat on the swing frame and ate the pear that Fei He handed to her.
After feeling full, my mood also improved a lot.
"Enjoying the scenery and eating pears under the moon, this kind of comfort is only possible when you are with me."
After His Majesty finished eating, Fei He took the remaining pear core from His Majesty and placed it on the stone table beside him. After dawn, the palace maids would come and clean up the place.
"Okay, it's time to go back. Let's go. I allow you to serve me today."
Fei He was not conspicuous standing in the moonlight in his black clothes and robe, and his appearance was much duller than the bright yellow dragon robe that His Majesty was wearing tonight.
Seeing the fatigue in His Majesty's eyes, he knew that His Majesty was worried about the country, and he couldn't bring himself to say the words of heartache.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"
Fei He knelt on one knee and saluted His Majesty. It was not a big deal, but after he made such a fuss, it seemed as if she had promised him some great thing.
"Why don't you help me go back?"
Liang Chongyue raised one hand coquettishly, but before Fei Heren could get up, he had already raised his arm and placed it under her palm.
After helping him steady himself, he stood up quickly. The usually cold-hearted and stern-faced Sifangtaizhang had to try his best to please His Majesty before he could smile.
Back at the Yangxin Palace, the system was still lying on the mat in the outer hall. Liang Chongyue could tell at a glance that there was new food in front of it. It seemed that Yun Ling was really worried.
"Don't look at it yet. It can't get any worse than it is now. Hurry up and open your eyes and eat the food in front of you, otherwise Yunling's heart will be chilled."
The system was watching intently when suddenly a voice sounded from above. The next moment, the content on the panel disappeared. It was turned off by the host himself.
The system slowly got up and shook its body which had hardly moved all day. Its nose reacted before its eyes. In order to work better, it blocked its five senses and could not smell the delicious food prepared by Sister Yunling for it. When it opened its eyes and saw the greasy big pork elbow, its saliva came down. It ignored everything else and started to chew it.
