Chapter 8 Stealing the Prince's Food

There is no man who doesn't like to be admired, and King Yan is no exception.

Looking at Shen Wei's sparkling eyes and the look of admiration that could not be concealed, King Yan's self-esteem was greatly satisfied.

"From now on, let the servants do this kind of thing. Don't put yourself in danger." Prince Yan hooked Chen Wei's nose.

Chen Wei was a little helpless: "Your Majesty, there are only two maids in Fangfei Garden. Cai Lian and Cai Ping are timid, but I am brave. I am the only one who can climb the ladder."

There are many rules and strict hierarchy in the royal palace’s backyard.

According to their status, they are divided into: princess, concubine, concubine, maid, and servant girl.

Shen Wei's status was that of a concubine, and she could only be assigned a small courtyard and two maids to serve her.

Prince Yan thought of the groups of maids and servants in the princess's courtyard, and then looked at the two thin maids beside Shen Wei, and suddenly felt pity for her.

The Prince of Yan barely hesitated and ordered Fugui: "Tomorrow, pick a nanny with rich experience and two capable young eunuchs and send them to Fangfei Garden to serve."

Fugui was stunned.

This is the standard configuration for a concubine!

But Fugui didn't dare to dissuade him. As a servant, he would never dare to go against his master's wishes.

Fugui said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I have made a note of it and will arrange it tomorrow."

The powdery moisturizing powder curls the corners of the lips subtly.

This is the treatment of a favored concubine. As long as she is favored, she can get benefits from the King of Yan.

She really loves the reward from King Yan...!

King Yan held Shen Wei's warm and soft hand, and did not go into the house immediately, but couldn't wait to see the vegetables he planted with his own hands.

After the spring rain, the seeds of radish and cabbage have not yet sprouted, but there are signs that they are breaking out of the shells. As for the eggplant, pepper, tomato and other vegetable seedlings, they grow stronger after being washed by the spring rain.

King Yan has begun to look forward to the day when the seedlings bear fruit.

When the vegetables he planted matured, he would taste them himself and then give some to his brother the Crown Prince and his father, the Emperor, and his mother, the Empress Dowager.

My father will definitely be happy since he values ​​agriculture.

Shen Wei accompanied King Yan to check the vegetables. The seedlings planted by King Yan were stronger, while those planted by Shen Wei were underdeveloped.

Shen Wei frowned in distress: "My concubine and the prince are planting vegetables at the same time, why do the prince's vegetables grow better?"

He pretended to be confused on the surface, but his mind was as clear as a mirror.

Prince Yan's vegetables were better, because Chen Wei asked Cai Lian to secretly fertilize Prince Yan's vegetables in the middle of the night.

Otherwise, with Prince Yan's half-baked vegetable-growing skills, these vegetables would have died long ago.

It's a pity that King Yan didn't know about this and thought he was good at growing vegetables. He put his arms around Shen Wei's slender waist and curled his thin lips slightly: "Weiwei is weak, the seedlings are planted too shallow, so they naturally don't grow well."

Shen Wei's cheeks were puffed with anger. A cunning look flashed across her big black eyes as she looked at the vegetables grown by King Yan with deliberate ill intentions.

All the thoughts are written on his face.

She planned to wait until King Yan’s vegetables were ripe and then steal them!

King Yan could see through her thoughts. On the one hand, he thought Chen Wei was innocent and cute, but on the other hand, he was secretly on guard.

This little girl wants to steal my food!

I have to come to Fangfei Garden frequently to supervise and not let her do anything secretly.

After looking at the dishes, the two walked into the house holding hands.

As soon as the door was closed, I started to feel bored.

The table in the bedroom was collapsed before, so the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent a sturdier rosewood table. Shen Wei sat on the edge of the table shyly and hugged Prince Yan's neck affectionately.

The beauty was like a painting under the lamp, and Prince Yan bent down and kissed her gently.

Caiping and Cailian were standing outside the door as usual, and the two maids blushed when they heard this.

Water was boiled several times at night and brought into the house for the two masters to bathe.

After Cai Lian prepared the bath water, she secretly glanced at the bed with the apricot-colored bed curtains scattered around. Only a white and delicate hand was hanging limply behind the layers of bed curtains.

Hands turn red.

Silent and ambiguous.

Cai Lian only took one look and her pretty face turned red. The prince and the master are having fun...

Cai Lian tactfully lowered her head and hunched over to go out to keep watch.

Cai Lian had a hunch that her Master Shen would definitely be favored for a long time. The entire palace was waiting to see Master Shen’s joke, and they were going to be disappointed.

For the next half month, Shen Wei continued to enjoy great success. Although she was still a concubine, the configuration of Fangfeiyuan was exactly the same as that of a concubine.

The King of Yan gave her rewards continuously, and the princess also gave her some gifts to reward her for her service.

During the fifteen days, Prince Yan stayed in Shen Wei's Fangfei Garden for seven days, stayed at the princess's place for two days, stayed at Liu Ruyan's place for one day, and spent the remaining days in the prince's East Palace.

Shen Wei was also busy. Apart from serving King Yan, she spent the rest of her time working hard to improve herself - fitness, health care, beauty, and learning etiquette from the new Rong Mama.

That day, Cai Lian hurried in and reported the princess's order to Shen Wei: "Master, the princess wants to see you."

In the room, Shen Wei was applying a facial mask in front of the mirror.

Ancient technology was limited and it was impossible to make modern whitening masks. But as the king of scrolls, Shen Wei is naturally knowledgeable.

She was born in a poor family in her previous life. She walked from a small mountain village to a modern big city, and was admitted to the best university in the country. She ranked first in her major during her four years in college. She studied business and took cosmetology classes to improve her manners.

During the beauty class, the professor talked about ancient beauty methods and half-jokingly said to the students: "Learn more knowledge about making facial masks, soaps, penicillin extraction, and sugar. If you travel through time, you may still need them."

Shen Wei studied very hard, but she never expected that she would actually put it to use once she traveled through time.

It is not too difficult to make traditional facial masks. Use medicinal materials such as black clover, soap beans, radix trichosanthis, lindera officinalis, and angelica dahurica, grind them into powder, mix them with water, and apply them on your face for one incense stick. Then wash it off. Your skin will slowly become smooth, white, and as smooth as a baby's.
