Chapter 879: Town for Summer Holiday

When the Empress Dowager mentioned the Queen, the King got startled. When the Empress Dowager mentioned the town, he had not thought of Jiang Shuang at all.

Only now did he remember the figure.

True...

The town used to be a place for the princesses to spend their summer holiday. Located at the foot of the mountain, the town was surrounded by trees and gave a very cool air even in a hot summer. It was a very wonderful thing to spend the summer there, but it was really cold during the winter, despite the comfort it gave in summer.

The town was far colder than the palace.

Why did he approve of Jiang Shuang’s idea of getting treatment there back then?

The King sighed.

The Empress Dowager understood what the King was thinking seeing how he reacted, but she still insisted. “We are from the imperial family, and we need to stay auspicious. The town used to be peaceful and fine, so it was a good idea to spend the summer holiday there. But the Queen spent so much time getting treatment there, and even passed away there. So I believe that we should come up with a better idea for the summer holiday.”

“...”

“We have more people in the court right now, so we need to find a place for the summer holiday.Also, what if the heir has gotten some good news to share by the summer? If that truly happens, we should definitely have a suitable place for the heir and his family to spend the summer holiday,” the Empress Dowager said.

It had always been a rule set by the previous King that the princesses should spend the summer holiday somewhere else, since it was good for the women.

The Empress Dowager, who was residing in the court, got many ice cubes due to her high position, but the other princesses might not be treated equally.

She said those things, not because she cared about the princesses.

She was just hoping that those places, where the Queen used to stay, should not be used or mentioned any more. The Queen had been gone for more than a month, and he still refused to get a new Queen. Although the Empress Dowager respected his decision, she still had no intention of making the King remember the Queen all the time.

So she made this proposal, and she needed to follow it to the end.

If the King was going to spend the summer holiday in the new town, he would gradually forget about the Queen, since he no longer got close to her. He would soon let the bygones be bygones.

“What is your plan? We can either give some more ice cubes to the princesses, or we have to build a new town now. We have to get something fresh to start. Honored Princess Jing could not mention this to you in her position, nor would anyone from the court care about this, so only I can tell you about it.” The Empress Dowager sounded very helpless.

The King showed a bad look on his face, but he was still thinking about what the Empress Dowager said.

They did not like the place where Jiang Shuang stayed, whilst he did not like it when they went to pester Jiang Shuang.

Since that town was where Jiang Shuang spent her last days, she should not be disturbed by anyone.

Well, summer holiday isn’t a very complicated thing. They just needed to make a new plan.

It wasn’t a good idea to give more ice cubes to the princesses, so the King decided to drop the proposal. The Saint Divine Land cared a lot about inheritance, so if summer holiday was a rule passed on from the ancestors, then they should stick to that. He was not going to cancel the rule, otherwise he, and even Jiang Shuang would be blamed later.

“Build another town, but...”
