With two more people in the mansion who are both masters and not masters, the servants have become much busier.
It must be the master, a maid who came from nowhere, and the ninth prince of the court, the prince's political enemy.
She is not the master, and the princess treats her with courtesy. As for the prince’s attitude, it doesn’t matter at all.
"Wow, what kind of porridge is this? It's so delicious."
The old woman beside her replied, "Miss, this is bird's nest porridge."
"No wonder it tastes so good. I want to learn how to make it."
"Use one ounce of bird's nest, five cents of rock sugar, and morning dew as water. Slowly simmer it in a silver pot to make porridge. This is the best way to nourish yin and replenish qi."
"Forget it, it's such a hassle."
Chen Jingxi smiled and said, "If you like to drink it, I'll give you this bowl too."
Nan Xing took it with a smile, "Thank you, Sister Xi."
The old woman hurriedly said, "Princess, this is to nourish your body."
"It's okay. She can eat it every day. If Nanxing likes it, give it to her. She enjoys eating it, and I am happy to see her too."
Nanxing finished the bird's nest porridge in no time.
The old woman watched from the side and muttered softly, "What a good appetite."
"Is this an egg roll?" Nan Xing picked it up with a chopstick. "It shouldn't be gold-plated, right? It looks delicious."
Chu Jingyue teased, "Is there anything you think is not tasty?"
Nan Xing said cheerfully, "That's not true."
"You're such a foodie! Leave some for me! Are you a pig? You can eat so much."
“It’s delicious. It’s so delicious.”
As Chu Jinghuai stepped into the mansion, the noisy sound reached his ears.
He walked towards the main hall with steady steps. Before he stepped in, he saw the two people who were arguing in the main hall. His brows frowned involuntarily and he felt very annoyed.
He paused, turned his head and said coldly to the attendant behind him: "Notify the people of Prince Jin and Concubine Qin to come and pick them up."
"Yes, Your Highness." The attendant took the order and hurried away.
At this moment, Chen Jingxi noticed Chu Jinghuai with sharp eyes and a smile appeared on his face, "Your Highness, you are back. Come and have dinner."
Chu Jinghuai responded and walked over with big strides. His eyes swept across the table, and when he saw the little food left, his expression instantly turned unhappy.
Are these two the reincarnations of starving ghosts? With such a big appetite, can his princess snatch them away?
Chen Jingxi immediately noticed his displeasure, and hurriedly shook her head and smiled, saying softly, "Make a bowl of noodles for the prince. I didn't expect you to come back so early, so we'll eat first."
"Are you full?"
Chen Jingxi nodded, and Chu Jinghuai's expression eased a little and he nodded slightly.
He was actually busy in the army when he suddenly remembered a letter that was of great importance, so he came back to get it. Of course, he was also thinking about this woman and wanted to come back to see her, or he could ask the secret guard to come back to get it.
"Sister Xi, I'm done eating. Where are we going to play later?"
"First, let's go to the clothing store, then buy you some jewelry, and finally go to the teahouse to listen to an opera. I heard there's a new play called The Drunken Swordsman."
"Okay, okay! But you don't need to buy these clothes and jewelry. I have enough to wear."
"Buy a few more pieces to change into." Ever since she became rich, buying things has become less fun. She bought a skirt for Nanxing the day before yesterday and saw how happy she was.
She was also very happy. She had promised her best friend that she would support her when she had money. Now she had money, but she couldn't fulfill it. It was not bad to support Nanxing.
She quite liked this girl, simple and innocent. Perhaps because she had lived a life full of deception for too long, she could relax with Nanxing without having to be wary of her ulterior motives.
Chu Jinghuai saw Chen Jingxi was happy and told them to bring more people with them when they went out. Although this was his territory, many people had come to Qingzhou recently.
Naturally, various forces in the capital are involved.
Although the capital and Qingzhou are thousands of miles apart, they also received the news that Chu Jinghuai sent troops to attack the imperial army.
The Queen not only learned that the 300,000 troops she had mobilized had either surrendered or died, but she also learned that Chu Jingxun had betrayed her and eliminated her closest confidants in the army.
He was immediately furious and angry, "Chu Jingxun, damn it."
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Prince Jin won't live long anyway." said the maid who served him.
The queen thought of the poison in Chu Jingxun's body. She had ordered it to be injected when Prince Jin was two years old. Now it has corroded his internal organs. Not even a great immortal could save him.
Thinking of this, the queen's expression became a little better.
"Your Majesty, what should we do now?" the nanny asked cautiously, "Now that there is no army to stop them, Prince Su will definitely attack the capital directly."
The queen slowly said: "What should we do? Of course, we should help the emperor to sit firmly on the throne. If his position is unstable, what should I do with my son?" If her son cannot sit on the throne, how can she hold power?
"Pass on my decree, ordering the imperial physician to heal the emperor at all costs. If anything happens to the emperor, I will execute their entire clan!"
"yes."
Another person who is also concerned about the emperor's illness is Concubine Qin. Her son has gone to the battlefield and his life or death is unknown. The culprit of all this is the queen.
Unlike the empress, her honor and disgrace are more dependent on the emperor. If the emperor does not wake up, she will not be able to take revenge on the empress.
"How is the emperor?"
The imperial physician said respectfully, "Your Majesty, it's still the same."
"You are just a bunch of useless people. Why don't you try to cure the emperor?"
While Concubine Qin was fuming, she heard a commotion outside. It turned out that Concubine De had arrived with a group of palace maids and eunuchs.
"Oh, my sister is furious here." Defei said sarcastically.
