"No! Don't eat that!"
Lillian, who had been standing silently by, spoke anxiously, but she immediately realized her mistake and quickly shut up.
Lillian's family has lived in Stoby for generations.
She did not want this independent kingdom to be annexed by Macedonia, and her entire clan to become defeated slaves and lose their freedom.
For this reason, she went to great lengths and stayed up late to make her signature wheat cakes, hoping to nourish the great hero Xia Zhe.
Lillian was certainly not happy that such a good thing was given away so cheaply to a barbarian.
However, seeing Lillian's intense reaction, Xia Zhe became more and more certain of his judgment.

"I am a very honest maid, and I always tell the truth. Haha, haha. To be honest, this plate of wheat cakes was not made by the royal chef, but is just an ordinary food in the common people's homes. However, although the wheat cakes are rough, they are placed in an unusual position. What I shared is the staple food of the royal banquet. Does the Second Prince know the deep meaning of this?" Xia Zhe said carefully.

As soon as Xia Zhe gave this reason, the Second Prince and the High Priest both smiled.

Then, he suddenly froze. He chewed the wheat cake carefully, but it seemed that there was something wrong with the taste.
This action is really weird.
The high priest and several guards were all suspicious.
Only Xia Zhe and Lillian were mentally prepared and did not feel too surprised.
