The waiter placed the table in front of Shen Jintang according to Shen Jintang's wishes, and then bowed down.

Shen Jintang smiled at everyone, looking generous and elegant.

She first showed the table and the red cloth in her hand to everyone, indicating that there were no mechanisms or places to hide things on it.

Then she held the red cloth in her sleeve and raised it slightly in the air. The red cloth slowly fell down and covered the table.

Every move she makes seems like she has stepped out of a painting, which makes people fascinated without realizing it.

It wasn't until Shen Jintang took out a plate of bright red cherries from the table under the red cloth that everyone couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

"This, what is this?"

"I don't know, it looks like a cherry, but the cherry is not that big, right?"

"Two beloved concubines, can you recognize what this is?" The emperor listened to the discussions among the people below and couldn't help but smile and asked the noble concubine and the virtuous concubine.

The imperial concubine looked at it carefully and answered hesitantly: "It looks like a cherry, but it doesn't look like a cherry if you look closely."

She has never seen such a bright red and big cherry.

The emperor smiled and nodded, then turned to look at Concubine Xian.

Concubine Xian also shook her head and said: "I have never seen anything like this before, so I don't know what it is."

The emperor laughed twice and ordered to Eunuch Chu: "Have someone bring it up for a look."

Eunuch Chu responded respectfully: "I obey the order."

Eunuch Chu walked quickly to Shen Jintang and smiled at her.

Then his eyes fell on the plate she was holding.

A plate full of bright red cherries looks even bigger when you look at it up close.

There is a faint fragrance wafting out, and you can't help but salivate just looking at it.

Shen Jintang handed the plate to Eunuch Chu with both hands.

Eunuch Chu also carefully took it with both hands.

The things he looked at looked like precious things, not to mention that if the emperor wanted to see them, he had to handle them carefully.

Eunuch Chu brought the cherries to the emperor.

The emperor took a closer look, looked at Shen Jintang with a smile and asked: "Miss Shen, is this true?"

It looks very real, and the fragrance wafts out.

Shen Jintang smiled slightly and said: "If you tell me back to the emperor, this is true. The emperor can try it."

As soon as he finished speaking, a waiter came over with a silver needle to test the poison.

Then Eunuch Chu saw that the silver needle used to test the poison did not change color, so he smiled and presented it to the emperor.

The emperor picked one up and looked at it twice before putting it in his mouth in a hurry, and then asked: "Miss Shen, does this fruit have a name?"

Shen Jintang nodded: "Your Majesty, this is Che Lizi."

"Che Lizi?" The emperor smiled: "What a strange name."

Under the gaze of everyone, he slowly put the bright red cherry into his mouth.

Bite it gently and the sweet juice will explode in your mouth.

The emperor couldn't help but nodded and said to Mr. Chu: "It tastes good. Let's give it to the noble concubine and the virtuous concubine to try."

The emperor turned his attention to Shen Jintang again and said with a smile: "Miss Shen's talent is indeed extraordinary, I am very pleased."

"There are rewards for many!"

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, all kinds of complicated eyes fell on Shen Jintang.

Some are envious, some are jealous, and several handsome-looking men are admiring the stunning looks.

Pei Jingxue did not expect that the trap she dug for Shen Jintang not only failed to trap her, but also helped her obtain a reward from the emperor.

Suddenly my face turned red with anger.

After the banquet, Shen Jintang was about to follow Prime Minister Pei and others back to the Prime Minister's Mansion when he was chased out by the chamberlain and called back.

"Miss Shen, please stay." The waiter ran over sweating profusely.

Prime Minister Pei and others and Shen Jintang turned their heads to look at him in confusion.

The chamberlain calmed down his breathing and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness, please invite Miss Shen to see you."

After saying this, he looked at Prime Minister Pei, Pei Heng and others: "Prime Minister, please go back first. His Highness Taisun has told you that when he comes back, he will personally send Miss Shen back."

Shen Jintang also looked at Prime Minister Pei and others: "Grandpa, parents, you should go back first."

Prime Minister Pei nodded: "Okay."

Knowing that it was Gu Baiyi who invited Shen Jintang, Pei Heng and others were not too worried.

Shen Jintang followed the chamberlain to the door of Gu Baiyi's palace, and saw Gu Baiyi's back to them, with his hands behind his back.

Hearing the noise, Gu Baiyi quickly turned around.

When he saw that it was Shen Jintang, he immediately smiled: "Sister Jintang."

Upon seeing this, the chamberlain bowed respectfully to the two of them and left.

Gu Baiyi walked up to Shen Jintang and smiled at her: "Sister Jintang, are you interested in taking a tour of my palace?"

Shen Jintang nodded happily: "Okay!"

Although the Prime Minister's Palace is already large and luxurious, when you enter Gu Baiyi's palace, you find that his palace is even bigger, more exquisite and luxurious.

There are maids and chambermaids everywhere.

After seeing the two of them, they all bowed their heads in greeting.

Gu Baiyi took Shen Jintang to a garden in his palace. After walking to a pavilion, Shen Jintang discovered that he had prepared wine and food.

"Were you not full at the banquet just now?" Gu Baiyi smiled gently at her, with tenderness in his eyes: "I asked the people in the imperial dining room to prepare the meals according to your taste, please eat some to satisfy your stomach. Right."

Shen Jintang was not stupid. She had guessed that Gu Boyi wanted to talk to her from the moment the chambermaid stopped her and said it was Gu Boyi who was looking for her.

It's definitely not just for her to come for a meal.

But he didn't take the initiative to say it now, and Shen Jintang didn't ask either.

After saying thank you, I sat down.

Upon seeing this, the waiter waiting on the side quickly prepared to go forward and serve Shen Jintang.

Unexpectedly, Gu Baiyi waved his hand: "Go down, you don't need to wait here."

"Yes."

After the waiter left, Gu Baiyi personally brought a pair of chopsticks to Shen Jintang and picked up some dishes for her.

Shen Jintang also personally gave him some chopsticks to pick up some vegetables, and smiled slightly: "Brother Gu, you can eat too."

Except for these two sentences at the beginning of the meal, the two of them were silent for the rest of the meal.

Feeling that Shen Jintang was almost full, Gu Baiyi put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth and said, "Sister Jintang, can I call you Tang'er from now on?"

It's just a title, and Shen Jintang will naturally not disagree.

So he nodded and agreed readily: "Okay."

Gu Baiyi seemed a little nervous and smiled at her.

He called Shen Jintang today because he was indeed planning to confess his love to her.

Although he was a grandson and there were countless people who wanted to marry him, Gu Baiyi didn't know if he cared too much, but he became nervous.

After a while, he took a deep breath and looked at Tao Yueqing seriously: "Tang'er, I have known you for a long time.
