"Outside..."
"No!" Tu Qingyu realized that he would really do that, and quickly grabbed his hand, "No, I, I won't say it anymore."
As soon as he finished speaking, a tear as big as a bean fell down and landed right on Jiang Jingchuan's palm.
He lowered his eyes, looked at the tear marks on his palm, and said calmly, "Back off."
"Yes." But before leaving, Li Shi said, "Your Highness, lunch is ready."
"Um."
He took out a handkerchief and wiped Tu Qingyu's tears. "Stop crying. If you keep crying like this, aren't you afraid that you'll hurt your eyes?"
"As long as you stay in this palace well, I will give you whatever you want."
Tu Qingyu didn't say anything, obviously feeling that his words were not credible.
"Why? Do you think I can't do it?"
After a long while, Tu Qingyu finally stopped crying, "What if I hit Chen Liangdi?"
"Holding a grudge?"
"Shouldn't I hold a grudge? She wanted Mammy to slap me."
Speaking of this, Jiang Jingchuan remembered the slap Tu Qingyu gave to Nanny Dai.
I picked up her hand and saw that the delicate and boneless little hand was a little red and swollen.
He felt a little distressed, "Just let the servants beat you, why do you have to do it yourself?"
Tu Qingyu snorted lightly, "Servants beat me? I'm lucky that they don't beat me."
"Don't you know everything? Don't you know that I almost couldn't leave Yichun Palace when I went to pay my respects today?"
Hearing this, Jiang Jingchuan's eyes darkened. He rested his chin on Tu Qingyu's head, still patting her back with his hand.
The words of apology came out of her mouth, "This matter is indeed my husband's fault. It will never happen again. If anyone dares to slap you again, it means that I failed to protect you. Come back and beat me."
It was indeed his fault. He had not taken action for too long, which made them think that he, the prince, was too kind.
"Hit you? I don't want to die so badly now."
Jiang Jingchuan was stunned for a moment before realizing that she was joking with him.
He heaved a sigh of relief, scratched her nose with his hand, and said with a smile, "Mischievous ghost."
"I'm telling the truth."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. I'll take you out to eat."
"No, I, I'll go by myself."
"Don't move, let me hold you."
He stood up holding the person and weighed him. "Why is it so much lighter?"
It's all psychological. Although she hasn't eaten these days, she still eats.
He brought her to the outer hall as if no one was around. The servants outside lowered their heads when they saw him carrying someone out.
The table was already filled with delicious meals, all of which Tu Qingyu usually liked to eat.
He asked them to leave and personally served the rice and dishes.
Tu Qingyu didn't have any morning sickness, but she acted like she had no appetite for the past two days, so today she stopped eating after a few chopsticks.
Jiang Jingchuan frowned, "Why did you only eat so little?"
Although she wrote in the booklet that she had a poor appetite in the past few days, he thought it was because the food sent from the kitchen was not tasty.
"I haven't had much of an appetite these past few days." She raised her head. "Your Highness, don't worry about me. Eat quickly."
He used his own chopsticks to pick up some food, but only after doing so did he realize that his behavior might be inappropriate.
After a moment of panic, she chose to reach out and take the food back from the plate.
But before she reached out, Jiang Jingchuan picked it up and ate it.
After swallowing it, he raised an eyebrow and asked, "What? You want to take the food back after you took it?"
"No, I used my own chopsticks, thinking of Your Highness..." He would be disgusted.
Jiang Jingchuan stared at her lips and smiled, "Do you think I would mind this?"
She didn't say anything else, but Jiang Jingchuan didn't allow her to eat just that little bit and kept serving her more food.
"If you can't eat, then you're sick. Doctor Gu Xuan will take a look at you and prescribe some medicine to stimulate your appetite."
She started taking medicine again only after she heard that she had to take it.
Although he appeared to be forced to do so, he actually enjoyed it very much.
She will always surrender to human delicacies.
When she had almost finished eating, she raised her head and said pitifully, "Your Highness, I really can't eat anymore."
Jiang Jingchuan also felt that she had eaten enough, so he nodded and said, "If you can't eat anymore, then don't eat anymore."
Then he quickly finished his lunch, accompanied Tu Qingyu for a walk, watched her take a nap, and then left Qionghua Palace.
As soon as he walked out of the gate of Qionghua Palace, his face darkened.
Even though Tu Qingyu had been with him for a while, the anger in his heart still did not subside.
Whenever he got angry, his anger would spread to the harem. The first time, it spread to the Crown Princess.
The Crown Princess knew this would happen as early as when she knew he was going to Qionghua Palace.
But when she heard her husband say to her with a cold face, "If the Crown Princess really can't manage the Eastern Palace well, you can find someone to help you," she still felt cold all over.
The mistress of a large family who has managed the Eastern Palace for so many years is now said to be a poor manager.
Asking for help means sharing her power.
She was filled with grief, anger and jealousy, but facing Jiang Jingchuan, she could only bow her head and admit her mistake.
"It was my fault for neglecting my duty. I hope Your Highness will forgive me."
Jiang Jingchuan looked at the respectful Crown Princess and sighed. After all, she was his wife who had been with him for many years, so he didn't say anything else.
Just before leaving, he warned, "Don't do it again."
The second fire spread to the kitchen of the Eastern Palace.
All the stewards in the kitchen were replaced, and the worst offenders were those from Chen Liangdi's side.
In the end, almost all of the Chen family's staff in the kitchen were killed.
"The last one is Chen Liangdi. I heard that she behaved disrespectfully in front of His Highness and has been put under house arrest." Linghua said with a beaming expression.
Tu Qingyu leaned on the couch, looked at the expression on the little girl's face, and praised: "Good girl, have a sip of tea and take a rest."
Feng Hui tactfully poured Linghua a cup of tea. Linghua took it and smiled, "Thank you for the reward, Master."
Shulan Courtyard.
After learning that she was under house arrest, Chen Liangdi was so angry that she trembled all over.
"How could His Highness treat me like this?" Her eyes were red, her chest heaving violently, "It's all because of that bitch!"
"Fox charmer! Little bitch! Lowly slave!"
After cursing a few times, she still didn't feel satisfied and habitually wanted to pick up the vase next to her and smash it.
"Master, no! You've just been confined, and you're already smashing a bunch of porcelain. What will His Highness think of you? What will outsiders think of you?"
Nanny Dai immediately knelt on the ground to stop her.
Chen Liangdi put down the vase, slumped into the chair, and it took her a long time to calm down.
She asked softly, "Have the people over there made arrangements?"
Nanny Dai leaned over and whispered, "Master, everything has been arranged."
"Is the medicine ready?"
"The Second Master asked someone to bring it in. It's absolutely reliable. Master, don't worry."
"Okay, let her choose a time to do it herself."
She really couldn't stand that vixen for a moment!
