"Hehe, thank you very much, Miss Jiang."

"Unfortunately, my wife has a weak spleen and stomach and cannot eat such greasy food."

The Fifth Prince's voice came, his tone gentle but scalding, startling the Fifth Prince's wife into sitting up straight and not daring to look around again.

"I'm sorry to spoil everyone's enjoyment. My stomach is weak and I really can't enjoy these delicious dishes. I can only eat some plain porridge and vegetarian food. Please don't mind."

The Fifth Prince's wife looked full of guilt.

Seeing this, Jiang Jiaojiao immediately took out an exquisite porcelain bottle from her bosom and stuffed it, along with the chicken leg, into the little crybaby's hand.

"I already asked the doctor. Your weak spleen and stomach are not something you were born with, but rather a result of years of eating only porridge and vegetables, which has led to a deficiency of qi and blood. To improve your spleen and stomach condition, you must strengthen your nutrition. So today you can eat as much as you want without worrying about harming your spleen and stomach."

"I've specially prepared the best digestive medicine for you, I guarantee you won't feel unwell after taking it."

After speaking, Jiang Jiaojiao gently patted the Fifth Prince's wife's hand, her eyes full of encouragement and expectation.

The Fifth Prince's wife was startled, tears welling in her eyes. A warm feeling surged in her heart, and she subconsciously gripped the porcelain bottle and chicken leg in her hands as if she were holding the most precious treasure in the world.

Seeing the little crybaby staring blankly at the chicken leg, Jiang Jiaojiao pretended to be willful and said, "Hmph, you are my savior. If you don't eat it, I won't eat it either."

Jiang Jiaojiao secretly glared at the Fifth Prince. Humph! Just thinking about the little crybaby's fate, she wished she could lock him up in a Buddhist temple and make him eat vegetarian food all day long!

Bah! They won't even give us any vegetables, they'll just keep us entertained with saliva!

The little crybaby is so pitiful.

The dignified Fifth Prince's Consort starved to death.

She never got to eat the chicken legs, roast goose, roast meat, and fresh fish she longed for until her death...

She died with her eyes wide open, becoming a ghost and becoming her sister.

The Fifth Prince's Consort gripped the chicken leg tightly, completely disregarding the proper etiquette and demeanor expected of a prince's consort, and said, "I...I'll eat it!"

After she finished speaking, she glanced quickly at the Fifth Prince, and then said somewhat guiltily, "It would be a waste not to eat so many delicious dishes."

However, the disgust in the Fifth Prince's eyes was hard to suppress and kept emerging.

Just then, Jiang Xue suddenly spoke softly, "Your Highness..."

"Why don't you let your sister try it? Once your spleen and stomach are in good condition, I will prepare delicious food for you every day."

It would be best to just stuff yourself to death.

This way, it's like killing two birds with one stone: not only do you avoid getting your hands dirty, but you also manage to drag Jiang Jiaojiao down with you.

After all, murdering a prince's principal wife is a serious crime!

Jiang Xue never expected that the Crown Princess had saved Jiang Jiaojiao's life. The Fifth Prince made her bow down and apologize to Jiang Jiaojiao in order to ease the tension between them.

But if the Fifth Prince's wife and Jiang Jiaojiao become even closer than she is, what chance does she have?

She absolutely cannot allow Jiang Jiaojiao to become close to the prince's wife.

The Marquis's mansion, the Jin family, the position of the prince's principal wife... all belong to her, and no one can take them away.

The Fifth Prince's eyes darkened slightly.

He came today to win over Jiang Jiaojiao and make the Jin family, the General's Mansion, and the Duke's Mansion work for him, so naturally he didn't want to go against Jiang Jiaojiao's wishes.

As for the Fifth Imperial Concubine.

It's just a decoration; if this one is gone, there will be another.

The Fifth Prince looked at Jiang Jiaojiao, whose face was as pink as peach blossoms and who was plump and beautiful, with a hint of regret. It was a pity that his father had already arranged the marriage, and she had taken a fancy to the Seventh Prince's face. Otherwise... he could have offered her the position of a concubine.

As for his concubine, he naturally favored Jiang Xue.

Although Jiang Xue's reputation is not as good as before, she is indeed intelligent. Recently, she has helped him discover several talented people who are both beautiful and talented, and are even more presentable.

"Since Miss Jiang is so kind, please give it a try."

The Fifth Prince raised his wine cup. "I would also like to toast Miss Jiang. Let bygones be bygones. Now that Xue'er has entered the manor, we are all one family."

Jiang Xue quickly picked up her wine glass, understanding the implication, and said with a smile, "Sister! Now that we have the Fifth Prince's protection, I believe our Marquis's Mansion will surely be able to regain its former glory and wealth."

"Last night, my sister had a dream that His Highness bestowed upon our Marquis's mansion a gleaming golden plaque!"

In this world, only the Emperor can bestow a golden plaque...

The Fifth Prince's lips curled up slightly, and his gaze toward Jiang Xue was filled with endless tenderness, as intoxicating as a pool of spring water. This dream was just right, exactly what he wanted.

Their eyes met, their tenderness overflowing, their affection practically overflowing.

Jiang Jiaojiao felt nauseous and quickly turned her head away, afraid that she would vomit on the spot.

The Fifth Prince's wife didn't care who the Fifth Prince was flirting with. She carefully held the chicken leg in both hands and gently took a bite. Every movement was so gentle, as if she were holding a rare and unparalleled treasure.

Those bright, large eyes sparkled with light, as if they held a sky full of stars, revealing a heartfelt sense of satisfaction and joy.

But... I only ate a few bites before stopping.

"belch……"

The Fifth Prince's wife immediately covered her mouth, her face pale, and her stomach churning slightly.

Jiang Xue immediately snapped out of her daze and stood up excitedly, "Princess Consort...you..."

Feeling like throwing up? Great!

The Fifth Prince's wife suffered from a stomach ailment, which worsened after returning to the manor and became incurable by medicine. Jiang Jiaojiao was the culprit!

Jiang Jiaojiao seemed to have guessed it all along, and pushed the teacup next to her over.

"This is tea with digestive pills dissolved in it; it works immediately."

Without hesitation, the Fifth Prince's wife took a sip, and her mouth was filled with the rich aroma of wheat, sweet and sour, and delicious.

She drank the tea in small sips, finishing it all.

After putting down the teacup, I realized my rudeness and felt extremely embarrassed. "I'm so sorry, this digestive tea is just too delicious."

After she finished speaking, she was surprised to find that the churning and uncomfortable feeling in her stomach had miraculously disappeared.

Her face was filled with disbelief as she murmured to herself, "I...I think I really don't feel bad anymore."

Seeing this, Jiang Jiaojiao smiled and picked up a piece of fish with her chopsticks, placing it in her bowl: "Then let's try this fish soup."

"Okay!" The little crybaby nodded without hesitation.

Her previously pale face suddenly radiated a dazzling light, as radiant as the warm spring sun.

Jiang Xue looked shocked. She really didn't vomit?

You must understand, this is a stubborn stomach ailment that even the imperial physicians in the palace are helpless against!

Could it be that Jiang Jiaojiao is truly skilled in medicine?

impossible! !

She's foolish and clumsy, completely ignorant of poetry and literature—how could someone like that possibly be a doctor? There must be... there must be someone else helping her behind the scenes!

Who could it be?

The Jin family?

Yes! It must be the Kim family!

Since the Jin family possesses a secret medicine, there must be a divine physician capable of creating it! This medicine must have been formulated by that divine physician!

The fifth prince was equally surprised.

The digestive tea's effects are truly miraculous? Jiang Jiaojiao's medical skills... don't seem to be something she secretly learned from Jiang Xue, as Jiang Xue claimed.

It should be noted that the snake venom that the eldest princess was poisoned with has not yet been completely eradicated. If Jiang Jiaojiao had intervened, wouldn't she have recovered long ago?

The Fifth Prince subconsciously compared the two people.
