Jingdu City had regained its former prosperity, but it wasn't without changes. Because many places were damaged, the entire city was rebuilt. Now, it was more orderly and the streets were wider.
Ming Yu dressed up as a young master and didn't bring any palace maids. She followed the Queen Mother out of the palace.
The Queen Mother maintained the appearance of a thirty something year old. Now that she walked with Ming Yu, no one could tell that they were grandmother and granddaughter.
"Grandmother, let me tell you. In the past, when I was bored in the palace, I would let Little Six secretly bring me out of the palace. We would eat on the streets. You definitely haven't eaten the delicacies of the human world." Ming Yu pulled the Queen Mother's hand and walked towards a stall that sold honey fried dough twist. She bought two fried dough twists, "Try it, it's delicious."
The Queen Mother had never eaten the delicacies of the human world. She had come to the human world before, but that was many years ago. At that time, the human world didn't have so many different types of food.
"It really is not bad." The Queen Mother ate more reservedly as she slowly took small bites.
Ming Yu finished the honey fried dough twist in a few bites, "Later, I will bring you to eat roasted chicken. The meat is very tender and when you bite down, the fragrance will remain in your mouth. There is mutton soup over there. Let's go drink a bowl of soup first."
The mutton soup stall was filled with people. It wasn't easy to find a table and Ming Yu immediately sat down.
"Little brother, would you like two bowls of mutton soup?" The boss smiled and asked.
"Eh, two bowls and add some side dishes." Ming Yu said with a smile.
The Queen Mother wasn't used to this kind of situation and couldn't help but feel a bit restrained.
Ming Yu was just about to persuade the Queen Mother to relax when she heard people talking about the Heavenly Consort.
Yi, it had something to do with her?
Ming Yu pricked up her ears to listen.
"Did you guys hear? Our Heavenly Consort is almost twenty years old. Now that the harem is empty, it is time to find a husband." The one who said this was a young man. Looking at his embroidered robe, he should have a good background.
"In the past, the Emperor would choose beauties from the common people. I wonder if the Heavenly Consort will recruit men from the common people." Someone sighed.
Ming Yu almost spat out the mutton soup.
She didn't even know that she had become the topic of conversation among the commoners.
"I heard that the Heavenly Consort already has a bodyguard by her side. He's her childhood sweetheart. Maybe he's the future … the future …" That person hesitated for a long time. He didn't know what to call the future husband of the Heavenly Consort.
After all, there had never been a Heavenly Princess in the past. The first Heavenly Princess in the human world was Princess Qin, and there was no selection of a son-in-law in the harem.
"In the past, the Emperor had three palaces and six courtyards. How could the Heavenly Concubine only have one male concubine, Yan Xing?"
"…" Ming Yu put down the bowl in her hand. She couldn't bear to listen anymore.
"Grandmother." She called out softly to the Queen Mother of the West, but she felt that the Queen Mother of the West seemed to be listening with great interest. "Let's go."
Madam Wang still hadn't heard enough, "Don't be anxious, I haven't finished drinking yet."
"Have you forgotten what kind of person Yan Xing is? Who dares to compete with him?"
"…"
The crowd that had gathered together immediately dispersed.
Who was Yan Xing? He was different from them mortals. Although a few years had passed, they still remembered the tragic memories of the demonic beasts wreaking havoc on the continent.
"Why aren't they talking anymore?" Madam Wang said disappointedly.
"What's there to talk about?" Ming Xi mumbled, "Do I look that lecherous?"
Madam Wang smiled and said, "It's nice to have a few more people in the harem."
"Grandmother …" Ming Yu looked at Madam Wang in shock. She couldn't imagine that these words actually came from her grandmother's mouth.
"Since you don't want other men, then you only want Yan Xiaoliu?" Madam Wang asked with a smile.
