Taihe Palace was a summer palace built during the reign of the former emperor.
The Imperial Palace in the Capital City was in a low-lying area and became unbearably hot in the summer, which was very detrimental to the health of the frail former Crown Prince, who was none other than Emperor Hui Zhao.
Therefore, the former emperor specifically had a summer palace built in Zhongnan Mountain and would take Emperor Hui Zhao there to escape the heat every year from April to June.
But in the eleven years since the current emperor ascended the throne, he has only visited once; this year is the second time, and it's also to take the frail Crown Prince to escape the heat.

Li Mu's pen tip paused, and he remained silent.
