"I like Your Highness." Yan Nangui tilted her head, and sweet words flowed from her lips: "When I see Your Highness, my heart is filled with joy. When I don't see Your Highness, I have no appetite."
Shu Chengfeng hadn't intended to laugh.
I burst out laughing when I met her 'sincere' eyes.
"You're lying through your teeth." Shu Chengfeng pinched her cheek.
The two of them argued for quite a while.
At lunchtime, the meat that Yan Nangui had ordered was prominently placed in the middle.
Shu Chengfeng laughed again: "What a wonderful thing it is that food is tasteless..."
Yan Nangui lied again: "Yes, Your Highness, as soon as you arrived, I ordered the kitchen to make this. It really whetted your appetite. Your Highness was very happy. It looks delicious."
Shu Chengfeng really can't eat anything if he keeps laughing.
So he picked up a large piece of meat for her: "Eat it quickly."
In that short time, he had actually forgotten the worries he had before coming here.
I really felt very relaxed.
After lunch, Yan Nangui wanted to take a nap. So she dragged Shu Chengfeng along to take a nap.
This time, he really didn't do anything and just went to sleep quietly. Shu Chengfeng was also a little tired.
I had a good meal, and when I woke up, it was almost dusk.
Since returning to the capital from there, the Crown Prince has never slept so soundly and comfortably during the day.
After this sleep, my whole body felt relaxed and refreshed.
Yan Nangui felt much better; it was true that sleeping next to someone made her feel much more comfortable when her hands and feet were cold.
"Your Highness, are you free this afternoon?" Yan Nangui's voice was a little soft.
"Hmm." Shu Chengfeng thought to himself, there's probably no time to rush things now. So he decided not to be in a hurry.
By the time we woke up, it was almost time for dinner.
We ate quite a lot at lunch, but since we didn't have any activities in the afternoon, we ate less for dinner.
We ate too little, and after fussing around for a while, we were all hungry again.
Yan Nangui suddenly became irritated and kicked Shu Chengfeng, saying, "Your Highness is so annoying!"
Shu Chengfeng...
He flew into a rage, grabbing the man's fleshy spot: "When you were pretending to like me, you didn't say this? Huh? It's only been a few hours, and you dare to say I'm annoying? You've used me up, haven't you?"
This time it pinched a little hard, and Yan Nangui flicked it and cried out, "Ouch! I'm sorry, I was just complaining. It's so annoying to keep eating."
The wild geese, returning south, quickly began to act coquettishly.
It won't do you any good to make him angry at this time.
Shu Chengfeng sneered: "Sweet talk."
"Really, really, Your Highness, I know I was wrong, Your Highness..." Yan Nangui pitifully clung to his arm, "Your Highness..."
"Shout again?" Shu Chengfeng looked at her coldly.
Yan Nangui's heart trembled, and then he pounced on it.
Shu Chengfeng...
That vixen!
In the end, I didn't get to have a late-night snack.
Although she didn't get to eat a late-night snack, Yan Nangui almost ate herself to death...
The next morning, he had lost much of his patience with His Highness the Crown Prince.
Seeing her like this, Shu Chengfeng didn't get angry; he just found it amusing.
He certainly didn't think Yan Nangui disliked him; he just thought this woman had a terrible temper and changed her attitude incredibly quickly.
It's quite interesting, though.
In the main courtyard, Ye Liangdi and Luo Liangyuan had a falling out today.
“Luo Liangyuan is different now than before, so naturally she’s become more formidable. But you only gave birth to a girl, so what can she do?” Ye Liangdi sneered.
"What do you mean by that, Ye Liangdi? I haven't provoked you at all. If you have nothing to say to me, fine, but why bring up the child?" Luo Liangyuan snorted, regaining some of her pre-pregnancy demeanor. She became quick-witted and outspoken.
"What I mean, don't you know? Yes, girls are precious too, but they're so young. Aren't you afraid of making a ruckus in the middle of the night and ruining her good fortune? This child is not easy to raise," Ye Liangdi snorted.
"You! You're cursing the eldest princess!" Luo Liangyuan shouted angrily.
"Alright! What are you saying, Consort Ye?" The Crown Princess frowned. "How can you act like an elder? Doesn't Consort Luo's child call you 'Auntie'?"
This address of "Auntie" further provoked Ye Liangdi.
She immediately exploded: "Who's her aunt? Can't I have children myself?"
"What's wrong with Sister Ye this morning? These are all people of status, why are you arguing like this?" Su Liangdi shook her head.
"What's it to you?" Ye Liangdi retorted.
"Consort Ye, you can't seem to speak properly to anyone this morning?" The Crown Princess said calmly, "If you really can't speak, then you should go back."
"Hmph. Of course I can speak properly. Now I, a mere concubine, am not even as good as a mere court lady. The Crown Princess is, after all, the Crown Princess. Even if she doesn't have children for the time being, she doesn't need to defend a court lady who has already given birth like this," said Concubine Ye.
She certainly wouldn't acknowledge Ning Chenghui's child as belonging to the Crown Princess.
"Ye Liangdi is really going too far! It's your own fault for not being able to give birth. If you had, wouldn't the Crown Princess love you dearly?" Luo Liangyuan also provoked her.
"Who do you think you are? You come from a lowly background, and you've only been seen by His Highness a few times, yet you think you're someone important?" Ye Liangdi's sore spot was touched, so she naturally lost her temper.
"No matter how humble my origins, I am still His Highness's concubine. How much better are you than me? We are both just concubines," Consort Luo said angrily.
"Alright, what's all the noise about? Have you no manners?" The Crown Princess slammed her hand on the table. "Consort Ye, you're really being too domineering. Why are you picking a fight all of a sudden?"
"Stop being biased! Do you think I'm letting you do whatever you want with me now?" Ye Liangdi snorted.
"If all else fails, we should have His Highness the Crown Prince adjudicate the case," Yan Nangui interjected at this point.
Ye Liangdi's eyes blazed with fury: "Who are you to tell me what to do?"
"Then I find this strange. You've been making a scene with whoever you see this morning. Of course, I can't control you. What can I do? I'm a concubine, after all. How come I can't even speak properly as the Crown Princess? What do you want? Or do you want me to go to the palace and talk to the Empress before I can control you?"
Yan Nangui really couldn't understand this Ye Liangdi.
Actually, she's not that great, nor is she particularly cunning; she just acts like a troublemaker all the time.
Even though the Crown Prince dislikes her antics, she remains relentlessly persistent.
The kids are all ruined, and they're still not convinced.
"What else could it be? Last night, I asked someone to go to the kitchen to get some milk. The imperial physician had previously said that it would be good for the eldest princess to have some milk to eat. I specifically asked someone to go at night because I was afraid that she might need it during the day, since it's not part of her allowance. Who would have thought that taking it would delay Consort Ye's affairs?" Consort Luo said this lightly, but it revealed Consort Ye's petty and childish thoughts of snatching food from a child.
"...You're really something." The Crown Princess was speechless.
Ye Liangdi blushed: "Luo, stop talking nonsense!"
It wasn't that she just wanted this little bit of food and drink; it's just that she wanted it last night, but it wasn't available.
The last portion was taken by Luo Liangyuan, which made her very unhappy.
