“Okay, okay, you can help me open up the resort beach and you can go back. I’m not that unreasonable, as long as you can come and visit me a few times a year.”
Seeing that her sister was in a difficult position, Su Luo immediately compromised.
Ten days later, the court was filled with civil and military officials who had nothing to report. They thought that they could withdraw from court, but the Emperor spoke.
“The Eldest Princess is holding a family barbecue buffet at Fisherman Bay tomorrow. If you have nothing to do, bring your family and friends to support the event.
“You all know that my sister has just returned to the Northland. Other than me, her elder brother, she doesn’t have any relatives or friends.”
In other words, you guys have to go and support them.
All the officials in the court dared to say that they were not going. Since the Emperor had spoken, whoever dared to say that they were not going would be disrespecting the Emperor.
He immediately said sensibly, “We are fortunate enough to be able to participate in the Eldest Princess ‘banquet, so we will definitely be thick-skinned and disturb you.”
They had heard about the Fisherman’s Bay. They heard that there were many independent small courtyards built by the sea. They were quite beautiful, but they didn’t know what they were used for. Now they understood that it was the Eldest Princess’s doing.
“You won’t regret it if you go.”
Su Luo was very satisfied with the performance of all the civil and military officials. He did not feel that he was using his power to suppress others. He was blatantly using his power to suppress others.
Many of those officials were richer than him. How could they not contribute? He even hoped that a few rich people would commit crimes quickly so that he could have a legitimate reason to confiscate their property.
Perhaps it was because he had been too swift and decisive ever since he became the emperor. Those ministers were all as obedient as grandchildren, and none of them committed any major crimes.
For small matters such as making him an empress, he could only punish him with a salary.
Many ministers had been punished by him for various reasons and could not receive their salaries for one or two years. He felt that it was too much.
Su Luo gave her father-in-law a look.
“Retreat!”
The next day, the holiday beach that MO Ruyue planned officially opened.
All the influential figures in the capital had arrived at Fisherman’s Bay early that day.
There was only one reason why they were here. Fisherman’s Bay was a barbecue buffet organized by the eldest Princess of the Northland, who had just returned from overseas.
Barbecue was no stranger to northerners.
Just because of the Eldest Princess ‘name, these people had to come. Moreover, they heard that the Eldest Princess had organized this family barbecue buffet in the hope that she could see a girl she liked at the meeting. At that time, she would be brought into the palace.
If there was someone who was capable, she might become the Empress of the Northern Kingdom. That was a blessing that had been accumulated over several lifetimes.
They did not dream that their young lady would be chosen by the Eldest Princess. Even among the civil and military officials who came today, it would be their luck to be able to befriend one or two of them.
This Eldest Princess Princess was really the Emperor’s reverse scale, the treasure of his heart. She blatantly wanted to find a harem for the Emperor, but not only was the Emperor not unhappy, he even allowed her to accompany him.
The officials in the capital still remembered that a month and a half ago, they had only mentioned in court that the Emperor should appoint an empress and had been fined three months of salary. If there was any discord in their own backyard, they would be reprimanded by the Emperor. Until today, when those officials went to court every day, they were afraid that there would be any discord in their own backyard. If the Emperor found out, they would be reprimanded. They had become the laughing stock of the entire capital.
What was even more terrifying was that the daughters and nieces of any family who entered the palace were sent back home. In a month and a half, almost all the beautiful women in the palace were sent back.
These ministers finally discovered the other side of the Emperor. He would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. From then on, he was even more careful in handling matters. Other than matters that were necessary for his duties, he would not say anything else.
When they arrived at Fisherman’s Bay, they thought that the barbecue on the beach had already started and that the Eldest Princess would look at the daughters of the various families. However, that was not the case at all.
They saw the emperor leading the Eldest Princess ‘family, tightening his sleeves and trousers, wearing special waterproof leather boots, digging sand on the beach and picking up fish and prawns on the rocky beach.
There were also many people who looked like fishermen beside them. They were also picking up seafood on the beach.
“Hoeing the crops at noon, sweat dripping into the soil, who knew that every grain of food on the plate was hard work!”
The children on the beach sang a poem. At first, those people did not understand it, but as they listened, they understood the true meaning of the poem.
Among the civil and military officials, there were also Su Luo’s confidants.
They knew about the Fisherman’s Bay event and took the lead to bring their entire family to the sea.
When the players who understood the situation saw this, they all followed suit. Today, they were here to support the game!
Some of the officials ‘families were initially unwilling to go down to the sea. They felt that it was dirty, hot, and smelly. However, when they saw that everyone else had participated, and that the Eldest Princess had also participated, they thought about the purpose of coming today and gritted their teeth to follow. Otherwise, they would feel that they were the ones who were out of the ordinary.
In the end, they felt that it was quite fun, something they had never experienced before.
Especially in the last segment, when he ate the seafood he picked up and roasted it himself. He dipped it in his own dipping sauce and felt especially fresh and sweet.
Especially when he saw his family eating the seafood that they had picked up and roasted for themselves. He was very happy and blissful when he received praise.
During the barbeque, the children began to sing the song of Hoeing Millet in the Noon. It sounded like it was true.
As the saying goes, if you don’t take charge of the household, you don’t know how expensive the rice, oil, and salt are. If you don’t personally work, you wouldn’t know that these delicacies are so hard to come by.
None of the families wasted anything. All the seafood that they had picked up was eaten up.
Of course, the inedible food had been checked by the people of Fisherman’s Bay before they roasted it.
Those girls still wanted to catch the Eldest Princess ‘eye, so they all maintained the behavior of the daughters of noble families. As for those younger boys, they let go and played however they wanted.
MO Ruyue had even set up three sets of swing, slide, seesaw, climbing net, sand digging tools, and other facilities for the children to play at the beach. The older children could still hold back a little, but the younger ones could not help but play crazily.
This was because they had never played like this before. There were people guarding the safety of the children. When they saw the children fighting, they would say that any child who did not follow the rules could not play. Everyone followed the instructions of the guards and lined up well.
Some of the older scholars did not like to personally go to the beach to pick up seafood. They could also go to the reef beach and set up a small stool that was suitable for fishing.
Anyone who liked fishing would have a little ink in their hearts. Facing the vast and boundless sea, their minds would also be broadened. When their interest was aroused, they could even recite a poem or two.
When the womenfolk felt tired from playing by the sea, they could go to the small courtyards at the back to rest.
There were all kinds of facilities inside. They could wash up and change clothes. It was very considerate.
These people had a lot of fun and were a little tired, but they all thought that if their relatives and friends came in the future, they could bring them over to experience it.
Especially those who had children at home. Looking at the children’s happy and innocent smiles, they felt that it was worth it even if there was nothing at all..
