Chu Yanyang frowned upon hearing this. Ji Ruyan asked this question in front of so many people, which was a provocation.
In harsher terms, it was looking down on their Xue Chu Country.
Chu Yanyang, as a female emperor, couldn't stoop to Ji Ruyan's level. Standing beside Chu Yanyang, Chu Hong quickly interjected, "Regent Princess Consort, you weigh your words too heavily. Xue Chu Country's geographical position is vast, with many trivial matters daily. The Empress has always been handling state affairs. Which matter are you referring to as not quite right?"
This Chu Hong is quite skilled at avoiding the heavy and taking the light, showing a bit of cleverness.
Ji Ruyan smiled slightly, "Regarding the avalanche incident."
Xue Chu Country, being snowy all year round, their liking for chili and peppercorn is no surprise.
