Chapter 496: Chapter 492: Roasted Sweet Potatoes_1

In the second year of March, the Emperor abdicated the throne to the Crown Prince, and then went to Dongchen Village with two of his imperial consorts, moving into the yard constructed for him by Yingbao.

The hundreds of guards who accompanied him barely squeezed into the yard temporarily, but it became unbearable over time.

Among those guards, many were the scions of distinguished families. They had never endured such hardship before, and they all flocked to the attending ministers to complain.

"This isn't a military expedition. We are always crowded in these tents, and even using the latrine requires queuing. Minister Lv, why not request the village chief of this village find us brothers an alternative place to stay, as long as it doesn't affect our duties?"

Minister Lv, who was the Empress Lv's biological brother and one of the ministers who moved into Dongchen Village with the retired Emperor. He thought for a moment and felt the guards' request was reasonable.
