Chapter 15: Ten-ingredient Tonic Soup



"Alang, what you said makes sense!" Emperor Xuande said with a look of fear on his face: "If my sister really wants to be the empress, I can't defeat her!"

"Your Majesty, have you made up your mind?"

"I will listen to Alang. I believe Alang will definitely help me, right?"

Lin Lang lowered his eyes, hiding the coldness in them: "I will always stand by your majesty's side."

The story of the princess jumping into the water to save Pei Yanche had already spread throughout Shangjing.

Early the next morning, people found Liu Yunu's body at the city gate.

He had lost both hands and had his eyes gouged out. He was beaten to death with clubs and thrown at the city gate. Because he used to be a prostitute in a brothel, in the end there was no one to collect his body.

Until a carriage stopped.

Lan Sichen slowly got out of the car and, under the gazes of many people, ordered his body to be put into a coffin and taken away.

At this time Bai Zhi had already told Shen Qianyue.

"Is he back?"

"Master Lan has returned. Perhaps he has already buried Master Liu."

"Let him come over and kneel in Longxiang Pavilion. Even if he is someone sent out by this princess, there is no reason for anyone in the princess's mansion to collect his body."

Bai Zhi was stunned.

What's wrong with the princess? Not only did she beat Young Master Liu to death, but she also wanted to punish Young Master Lan?

In the past, apart from Master Liu, her favorite was Master Lan.

It was because of Master Lan's elegant and secluded temperament, even Bai Zhi would be attracted to him, let alone Her Royal Highness the Princess.

"yes."

But Bai Zhi didn't dare to refute, so she had to bring the man over and make him kneel, but Lan Sichen was unwilling.

Although he was taken into the princess's mansion as a male favorite, he was, after all, a young man from a family of officials and a true aristocrat.

Now he has to kneel at the feet of a woman, how humiliating is that?

The windows were wide open, and she was half-lying lazily on the chaise longue. Snow was falling outside the window, and she caught a glimpse of his expression through the wooden window.

Proud and unyielding.

It is like the plum blossoms blooming in the snow, and like the orchid blooming alone in the deep canyon.

She has an elegant and refined temperament and is truly a good person.

"If you don't want to kneel, how about you go and collect the bodies of the entire Shangshu Mansion tomorrow?"

Lan Sichen's pupils shrank and he clenched his fists: "Princess, why are you doing this?"

"Do you really think this princess doesn't know who gave Liu Yunu that idea?"

Lan Sichen's pupils shrank, but his expression remained calm.

"Master Lan is truly a remarkable man, able to communicate with birds and beasts. His talent for taming beasts must be a gift from heaven, don't you think?"

At this moment, the expression on Lan Sichen's face could no longer be maintained.

He looked at Shen Qianyue with a look of surprise and suspicion.

He thought he had always hidden it well, so how did the princess find out?

Even his relatives didn't know that she...

"You are good at poisoning people's hearts in this mansion. Tell me, it's not too much for me to kill the entire family of the Shangshu Mansion, right?"

Everyone knows that the eldest princess is cruel.

Anyone she wanted to kill could be killed with just a wave of her hand. The idea that the emperor was guilty of the same crime as the common people was nothing but nonsense in front of her and was completely useless.

But Dali has indeed been inseparable from the eldest princess over the years.

Lan Sichen's palms were covered in cold sweat, and he quickly knelt in the snow, as if he had accepted his fate.

"Si Chen knows his fault and is willing to accept punishment."

"The winter gathering will be held the day after tomorrow. Do you have any objections to going with me?"

Lan Sichen frowned. Why did she take him to the Winter Encounter?

The eldest princess would only bring Prince Pei with her every year, not because she loved her, but because she wanted to show off in front of everyone that the dignified prince of the Southern Kingdom was as humble as a dog in front of her.

She can torture people however she wants, and it brings her great satisfaction and vanity.

Is it my turn now?

"Si Chen doesn't dare."

"Then kneel down."

Although Xiao Ba didn't provide much information, it was already clear that Lan Sichen's intention in staying in the princess's mansion was for her.

Although it was snatched away by force, Shen Qianyue knew that he had some ulterior motives from the day she dismissed the male favorites in the mansion and asked them to leave on their own initiative.

The winter in Dali is exceptionally long and cold, and all the nourishing things sent to Pei Yanche that day were sent back.

Today she simply called someone over and stewed a pot of nourishing and aphrodisiac soup, and some smoked venison. There was not even a single vegetarian dish on the table.

"Ah Che, this soup has been simmering since last night. Come on and try it and see how it tastes."

The room was filled with the aroma of incense, the stove was boiling, and sparks were crackling.

The room was filled with warm fragrance mixed with the aroma of meat, which was incompatible with Lan Sichen kneeling outside.

The servants passing by were talking about it, thinking that now that Liu Yunu was gone, it was Master Lan's turn.

Instead, Prince Pei, who had never been favored by the eldest princess, won the princess's favor and even ate and lived with her.

Lan Sichen knelt straight, and the frost and snow falling on him added a bit of coldness.

"What is this?"

He only took a sip and felt a wave of dryness in his chest rising to his head.

Especially the incense, which penetrates into the nose and makes the blood boil.

"Of course, it's the things you asked Bai Zhi to return that day. I asked someone to make some nourishing soup for you, Che. Are you touched?"

She stared at Pei Yanche with a smile, watching his face quickly turn red, and even the corners of his eyes seemed to have a hint of desire.

She suddenly came closer, and the faint fragrance of virginity came over him, like adding fuel to the fire.

Pei Yanche's pupils shrank, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Shen Qianyue slowly say: "If you dare to spread the soup that this princess personally prepared for you, I will take his life."
