Di Zisheng lowered his head and put a piece of braised pork with alternating fat and lean meat, which was full of color, aroma and taste.
It was like a new world was opened up to my taste buds. The food was rich but not greasy, smooth but not dry, and indeed tasted better than the food in the palace.
Xu Jinyi didn't care whether he got a response or not, and continued to talk to himself: "That cook was very pitiful. Although his life was saved by my father, that incident left his son with a lifelong disability."
"One night, without anyone knowing, his son committed suicide. His wife couldn't accept the fact and hanged herself. Now he is left alone."
"His enemies are in the palace, and he can't even take revenge. He's miserable."
"No matter how high my father's official position is, he can't reach the imperial kitchen. Otherwise, I would ask my father to avenge him."
“Woof woof…”
If I were to regain my human form, I would definitely avenge him.
Xu Jinyi picked up a piece of braised pork for him and ate a piece himself: "Don't you think the emperor is too lucky to eat such delicious braised pork?"
He has already eaten it and it is delicious.
Xu Jinyi had just put down his bowl and chopsticks and sat down in the pavilion by the lotus pond in the yard with his dog in his arms when Liuli came back.
"Miss, everything has been done. I just ran into the Prince of Pingyang and saw him wandering around the manor with his men. I'm afraid he hasn't given up yet."
"The gold I got turned into stone. How can I give up so easily? I'm afraid it won't be long before they come to my house to inquire about the news."
"Tell the porter to wait if he comes."
Xu Jinyi had a serious look on his face, and his tone of voice became firm, carrying the aura of a superior that made it impossible to refuse.
Di Zisheng didn't expect that the little girl had this side to her, and seemed to be fascinated again.
Yes, how could the daughter raised by General Zhennan be a weak and fragile little white rabbit?
"Yes, miss."
After agreeing to Xu Jinyi's request, Liuli did not leave, but was struggling over whether to speak.
"Anything else?"
"Miss, Liusu hasn't come back yet. I saw her when I went to town just now."
Liuli's three views were somewhat shattered by what Liusu did. She never expected that the person who grew up with her would become such a stranger.
Xu Jinyi was also curious about Liuli's embarrassed expression. After all, she knew everything about Lu Haoran and Liusu. What else was there that she found difficult to talk about?
Di Zisheng was also intrigued by the charades between the master and servant, and pricked up his ears to listen.
Liuli told what she had seen very embarrassedly, and Xu Jinyi's eyes widened when she heard it.
"Did you see Liusu and the servant next to Lu Haoran? They were still in the alley..."
The news was so explosive that Xu Jinyi couldn't react for a while.
Thinking of something, Xu Jinyi laughed out loud: "Lu Haoran probably doesn't even know that he's been cheated on by his own servant, right? Haha... Serves him right."
"You were engaged to me, yet you had an affair with the maidservant beside you. Isn't this retribution?"
Di Zisheng's expression, which was still watching the show, suddenly turned ugly, and all he could think about was her engagement words.
"It must be retribution. Fortunately, you discovered it early and didn't marry into the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion. Otherwise, you would be in great trouble."
Di Zisheng's heart was in turmoil, and he suddenly felt a little neurotic.
What does it have to do with him whether the girl is engaged or married? Why is he worrying about it?
But this little girl is so unlucky. Something happened at home, her fiancé cheated on her, her dowry was robbed, and now her maid has betrayed her master. She can't go back to the capital. It's so miserable.
Thinking of his current fate, Di Zisheng twitched his lips. He didn't seem to be in a much better situation either.
The kingdom that I worked so hard to build is about to change hands. My good body has become like a dog, a being that everyone wants to kill.
He couldn't go back to the capital either. Now in the capital, any black dog would rather be killed by mistake than let it go.
Di Zisheng sighed deeply in his heart.
"This shows how lucky I am. Otherwise, I would have been foolishly deceived and kept in the dark, knowing nothing. Now I am still working like a slave in the Marquis of Pingyang's mansion."
Liuli nodded: "Miss is naturally lucky."
As if infected by her optimism, Di Zisheng suddenly felt that he was okay, after all, he was still alive.
At least, the Prince of Yan was thinking of taking revenge on him at the time and letting him see with his own eyes how the throne came into his hands, so he did not kill him immediately.
Although he narrowly escaped death, he managed to escape from the capital. Isn't this luck?
Over there, Lu Haoran returned to the small courtyard with a gloomy and depressed look on his face, but found that Liusu and the servant were not there.
He sat down with a look of anger on his face and took a big gulp of cold water.
The entire area within five kilometers of the manor was searched, but there was no trace of the dowry, so Lu Haoran ordered his men to expand the search area.
Liusu took the servant's hand and walked back shyly. She found the door was open. They looked at each other and immediately separated politely.
He also checked his body to see if there was anything wrong, and then walked in happily.
"Prince, are you here to see Liusu? Did you get my indenture contract?" Liusu sat in Lu Haoran's arms in a coquettish manner, and glanced at the servant with a hidden look in her eyes.
Lu Haoran was still thinking about the dowry and didn't notice the fireworks between Liusu and the servant.
"Let me ask you, did you see with your own eyes the dowry of real gold and silver being carried here?"
Liusu nodded. "Yes, I saw with my own eyes Tong's mother counting and packing the boxes, and then locking them up. It was absolutely real gold and silver."
"Did anything unusual happen along the way? Is it possible that these boxes were swapped?"
Liu Su: "How could it be switched? The three escort agencies in the capital are not fake. There are so many people watching, and there are more than 600 boxes."
Liusu listened to his question and belatedly understood something: "Prince, didn't you get the dowry? What about my indenture?"
Liusu seemed a little anxious, she couldn't wait to regain her freedom.
Lu Haoran shook her hand off angrily: "No, nothing, not to mention the indenture, I didn't even get a penny."
"Tell me, did you see those things being put into the warehouse with your own eyes? Is it possible that they were swapped?"
Liusu thought carefully and shook her head. "The young lady is under my watch every day. She doesn't have the time to switch the dowry. Besides, with over 600 boxes of dowry, it's not something that one person can do. It's impossible."
