"You are so polite, father-in-law. I wonder what the Queen wants to see me for today? Besides, why is it your turn to send a message?"
After seeing Wang Deyi accept the things, Liu Deng quickly asked quietly.
"Your Highness, this old slave is about to congratulate you. Your good news is coming soon!"
When Wang Deyi said this, he didn't continue. Instead, he blinked at Liu Deng. Liu Deng really wanted to take that thing out of his arms. You can't even say anything. Is this clear? You are always so confused, who knows what you mean?
However, after comparing the status of both parties, Liu Deng simply gave up this tempting idea.
This thing isn't worth much anyway, so just treat it as a toy for this grandson.
When he thought of this, Liu Deng suddenly felt a lot more comfortable. Fortunately, he had the foresight. Otherwise, he would not have given away dozens of taels of gold in such a casual move.
"I said, father-in-law, did we go to the wrong place? Aren't we going to see the Queen?"
While walking, Liu Deng realized that something was wrong. Shouldn't he go east to see the Queen?
Why doesn't this direction look like the direction to the Queen's palace?
"Your Highness, please listen to me and don't ask any questions. Just obey my arrangements honestly today!"
Liu Deng was a little confused. He didn't know what the old grandson was up to, but since he accepted his gift and smiled so happily, he probably wouldn't do anything to hide his smile.
"Father, please don't trick me. I'm timid. You'd better tell me what I want to do..."
The more silent he became, the more Liu Deng felt uneasy.
"Your Highness, the eldest princess came to the palace a few days ago and brought a kind of delicious food. The queen felt very good after eating it. However, after hearing that this delicious food was taught by you, she felt a little uncomfortable. You understand this..."
After hearing what he said, Liu Deng finally understood that he had been betrayed by his aunt...
In any case, this is Liu Deng's grandmother. When he gave the gift, he had really forgotten about it.
I was caught by the Queen today, I'm not sure how I'm going to deal with myself?
I followed Wang Deyi all the way to the Xinuang Pavilion in the back garden. Before I even entered the door, I heard a happy family inside telling jokes.
The empress smiled brightly, and even the emperor smiled particularly heartily. It seemed that the whole family was very happy, but Liu Deng felt like a disaster was coming.
"Your Majesty, the Queen, the Acting King Liu Deng has arrived!"
"Let him in!"
After Wang Deyi finished his briefing, he heard the laughter inside suddenly stop, and the atmosphere suddenly became serious.
"I, on behalf of the King Liu Deng, have met with Your Majesty and the Queen!"
After Liu Deng entered the door, he first carefully greeted the empress and emperor, then immediately lowered his head and secretly observed the expressions of the emperor and empress with the corner of his eye.
"I said you are really quite capable. Do you know how many memorials you have participated in in the past few days? Come on, bring it over and show it to him!"
The emperor ignored Liu Deng and didn't ask him to get up, so Liu Deng could only bend down and cup his hands.
After the emperor finished his instructions, two young eunuchs came in carrying a large wooden box.
"See for yourself. I think you have become more capable recently. You didn't even talk to me about such a big matter in advance. You, the great king, did it with great taste!"
When the emperor said this, Liu Deng understood that he was beating himself up.
"Returning to Grandpa Huang, this... I really can't blame my grandson for this. He really doesn't know whether this matter can be negotiated, so he doesn't dare to tell you more for the moment. What if I tell you? If I can’t do it in the future, doesn’t it make me look incompetent?”
Liu Deng rolled his eyes and immediately hit his heart.
There are many things that I can't tell the emperor, but I can tell my own grandfather.
"Look, I said this skinny monkey is not afraid at all. This kid's cleverness is just like that of the great ancestor! Hahahaha!"
After Liu Heng finished speaking, he was the first to laugh, and then everyone in the hall burst into laughter.
Liu Deng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This test was finally over.
Although standing here alone and being laughed at by everyone feels a bit like being treated like a monkey in public, but who made this a feudal society? Feudal society has no human rights, especially since the top family in the Han Dynasty is still his elder. He will be eaten to death!
"Okay, you little skinny monkey, get up, stop bending over, and find a place to sit by yourself! Your grandpa passed the test, but you haven't passed my test yet! You said you are good at this? If you have good food to eat, you should stick to your aunt and uncle first. It's no use cooperating with me, a blind old woman, right? You can't think of anything good coming from me?"
"You can't say this... You really can't blame me. Grandma, don't you know? If you bring some food from outside into the palace, you have to go through at least a dozen processes and wait for this layer of inspection. After it’s finished, it’s already too cold to eat, so how do you think I can deliver it to you?”
After talking for a long time just because of the food, Liu Deng really sighed. This woman is born to be a foodie, and she does not distinguish between high and low status.
"Mother, please don't be deceived by this little monkey. This guy can argue even if there is no reason. If you don't pay more attention, you will probably be deceived and sold by this guy at some point, and you will help him." Counting money!”
Before Liu Deng finished speaking, the eldest princess had already exposed his trick. Liu Deng was so angry. He treated this aunt pretty well. Why did this aunt specifically try to undermine him today?
"You're right, but what this little monkey said makes sense. Well, since you're here today, you can make me a table that I haven't eaten before. I'm curious. You Where did the princes on this side learn their cooking skills?"
As soon as Queen Dou said these words, Liu Deng was shocked into a cold sweat. This was his biggest flaw...
The real acting king Liu Deng grew up in a deep palace and had almost no contact with outside things. He received a strict imperial education since he was a child. How could he be given the opportunity to learn cooking skills?
"Grandma, this is a long story. Things in this world are actually nothing more than intentions. My grandson has a rather tricky mouth. The cooks in this palace are really bad. There is no other way. My grandson can only figure it out on his own. …”
After Liu Deng finished speaking, he carefully waited for the Queen's next words. He was really scared. If this matter goes further and the faker is exposed, he will die without a burial place!
