Finally, at the end of the competition, Shen Yizhi won a lot of bets from everyone. The items were all kinds of things, including exquisite small items like fragrant jade, ancient items that were said to be passed down from generation to generation, and precious medicinal materials such as monkey dates...

Monkey gall is something similar to dog gall and bezoar. It grows on both sides of the monkey's cheeks. It is said to be very effective in treating asthma by making wine.

This was a folk recipe that Shen Yizhi had known in her previous life, but unfortunately she had never seen the real monkey date. Now she had gotten it by betting.

I'll have to try it when I get back.

Shen Yizhi felt a little guilty for winning so many things from everyone, so he went to Gu Xueting to discuss: "Everyone's strength has improved, shouldn't we celebrate?"

Gu Xueting took her into his arms, pinched her nose, and said jokingly: "Haven't you had enough fun yet?"

Shen Yizhi was not happy to hear this and punched him in the chest: "I'm not doing this for fun. As the master, shouldn't you encourage your subordinates and let them relax when their strength has improved?"

In fact, before Shen Yizhi arrived, the atmosphere in the entire palace from top to bottom was serious, orderly, and meticulous. How could it be as lively and joyful as it is now?

However, because of her, Gu Xueting was happy to see it happen.

"How dare I disobey the princess' order?" He brought her little fist to his mouth and kissed it.

The kiss was very light, but the heat seemed to spread from the hand to the heart.

Shen Yizi felt his whole hand was numb.

Gu Xueting asked someone to call Lin Chen over and gave him instructions on holding the banquet.

Lin Chen was startled and subconsciously glanced at Shen Yizhi. He knew without thinking that it must have been her idea. How could the prince ever think of holding a banquet? And invite everyone in the mansion to participate? But everyone would be very happy if they knew about it.

Lin Chen took the order and left.

Shen Yizhi stopped him and said, "Manager Lin, what are you going to do for this banquet?"

What else can I do? Aren’t the procedures of banquets all similar?

Lin Chen looked at her in surprise, "What does Miss Shen mean?"

"I have a few suggestions. If you think they are okay, you can adopt them."

In order to avoid disturbing Gu Xueting's work, Shen Yizhi and Lin Chen went to the side hall to communicate and instilled the concept of buffet into him.

When Lin Chen heard this, his eyes lit up, "Miss Shen, can you tell me in detail?"

The two of them were communicating happily here, but Gu Xueting in the hall was jealous.

Why couldn't Zhizhi say what she wanted to say in front of him? Why did she have to avoid him? Especially when she heard laughter coming from the next room, it was obvious that the two of them were having a good chat.

How could Gu Xueting still read the official documents? Although he knew that there was no possibility of anything going on between the two of them, reason was one thing and emotion was another.

After enduring for so long, Gu Xueting dropped the pen in his hand, walked into the side hall with his hands behind his back, sat down next to Shen Yizhi, poured a cup of tea, and brought it to her mouth, "We've been talking for so long, moisten your throat."

Shen Yizi was indeed a little thirsty, so he took a few sips from his hand.

Seeing this, Lin Chen silently looked away and said tactfully, "Miss Shen, I have almost learned the details of the banquet. I will go down and prepare now."

"Wait, I happen to have a lot of food stored here, you can take it to the kitchen, it may come in handy for this banquet."

Shen Yizi handed over a storage bag.

How could she store ordinary food materials? It must be produced by spiritual energy.

Lin Chen was once again shocked by Shen Yizi's handwriting and did not take it immediately.

Gu Xueting held Shen Yizhi's hand, "Zhizhi, you don't have to do this."

Shen Yizhi approached him: "Why, are you touched? I don't mind you paying with your body."

Somehow, Gu Xueting instantly understood what the word "flesh-compensation" meant.

"Go." He threw the storage bag to Lin Chen and sent him out.

Lin Chen didn't waste a moment and quickly walked out of the palace.

Almost at the moment his figure disappeared, Gu Xueting grabbed Shen Yizi and put his fingers on her lips.

The banquet was held in the evening. When everyone arrived, they saw various foods and drinks displayed on the long table. They were told that they could be taken and consumed as they pleased, which was very novel to everyone.

But they soon realized the benefits of this buffet banquet.

You can eat whatever you want and as much as you want. Those who want to socialize can get together, and those who want to be alone can find a place to eat. It is really comfortable.

Soon, the atmosphere in the hall became lively.

Lin Chen came to Hanguang Palace and asked Gu Xueting and Shen Yizi to come over.

When he arrived, he found the door of the palace closed. When he got closer, he heard a soft and gentle cry coming from inside.

Lin Chen silently retracted his raised foot. He thought that the prince was probably not interested in attending the banquet since he had Miss Shen as his companion.

"Where are the prince and Miss Shen?" Lin Chen returned to the banquet hall, and Qi Ming came over with a glass of wine and asked.

Lin Chen remained calm: "The prince and Miss Shen are busy and can't come for the time being."

Qi Ming didn't think much about it. He raised his glass to him and walked towards a table of barbecue.

The barbecue had just been served and was still sizzling with oil. The aroma was tempting. More importantly, the barbecue contained traces of spiritual energy. Not only would eating it not produce foul air in the body, but it would also be beneficial to the body.

It's just that the person who cooked the barbecue didn't use the right technique, which resulted in a lot of the spiritual energy in the meat being wasted.

He ate with big mouthfuls, thinking regretfully.

Lin Chen also joined in. After all, he was the one who organized the banquet, and now it was time to check the results.

It would be great if Miss Shen was here too. Maybe she could give him some guidance on the spot so he could do better next time.

However, Miss Shen is probably in a lovey-dovey mood with the prince right now. As a good steward who always considers his master, he should not disturb her at this time.

In fact, the situation in Hanguang Palace was not what he imagined at all.

Shen Yizhi was pressed on the table by Gu Xueting, with her neck tilted back, and he was covering her, biting her neck... sucking her blood.

The painting style was indeed very charming and nice at the beginning, but later on, Gu Xueting probably couldn't stand the stimulation and the poison took effect.

Shen Yizi was now very experienced in dealing with Gu Xueting when he was suffering from the attack of the magic poison. While comforting him, he cut his fingers and let him suck the poison.

But this guy was very picky and insisted on sucking her neck.

Is it possible that the blood here is particularly delicious?

Okay, the person who is poisoned is the most likely, so she will just let him go.

Gu Xueting sucked the blood with relish and very carefully, but Shen Yizi was bored and simply started playing with his hair.

She raised her hand and pulled out his hairpin, and instantly, a head of satin-like black hair fell down, covering both of them.

She touched it and found that the hair was of unreasonably good quality and even longer than hers... She couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
