I've been living here for more than half a year, so one more day won't make a difference.

Nothing scares Shen Chuwei more than moving, because everything here is her fortune and she can't give it up.

She bowed and said, "Thank you for your grace, Queen. I am very comfortable living here. There is no need to move."

This time it was the Queen who was surprised. It was the first time she met someone who was unwilling to move to the Hehuan Palace. It had such a good geographical location, right next to the Prince's bedroom. Others who wanted it didn't have the opportunity.

"Did the prince not allow you to move?"

Without waiting for Shen Chuwei to answer, the Queen continued, "He just doesn't care about women at all, otherwise why would I have come back so late and not have a grandson in my arms?"

The Queen said this when she took Shen Chuwei to the inner room.

She is the queen and should act like one.

Shen Chuwei, "..." Queen, why are you telling me this? It's not my fault that you can't have a grandson, it's all Xiao Jinyan's fault! Blame him!

The Queen didn't wait for Shen Chuwei to speak, and made the final decision, "This matter is settled."

"Your Majesty, I, your humble concubine..."

As soon as Shen Chuwei opened her mouth, the Queen said, "Shen Liangdi, didn't you say last time that you would cook some instant noodles for me to try? You can cook it now."

Shen Chuwei: “…” She had forgotten about this long ago.

Since the queen wanted to eat, she had no choice but to roll up her sleeves and do it.

Cooking instant noodles is the simplest delicacy.

Set aside the scallions, ginger and garlic, and fry an egg first.

Slice the ham and then cook the noodles.

Done in ten minutes.

A bowl of steaming noodles was served.

Shen Chuwei wiped her hands and said, "Your Majesty, you can eat now."

The queen looked at the instant noodles in front of her and found that they were indeed different from the ones brewed in the White Horse Temple. They smelled stronger and more appetizing.

She picked up the noodles with chopsticks, blew on them, then put them into her mouth and started eating.

Boiled noodles are softer and taste better than soaked noodles. With enough seasoning, the taste is more fragrant.

She raised her head and looked at Shen Chuwei in surprise, "It tastes better than brewed."

After that, she picked up something that looked like meat slices from the bowl and asked Shen Chuwei, "What is this?"

Shen Chuwei took a look and said, "This is ham sausage."

"You know a lot of new and delicious foods." The queen said as she put the sausage into her mouth and ate it. It tasted good.

The Queen left after having eaten and drunk her fill. Before she left, she said, "I will come and visit you often when I am free."

Shen Chuwei: “…” Look, even eating for free can be spoken in such a refreshing and refined way.

* It is sunny again and the temperature is gradually rising.

Feeling sleepy in spring and tired in autumn, Shen Chuwei was sitting on the couch feeling a little drowsy. Chunxi flew in like a magpie, flapping its wings.

"My lord, my lord."

Shen Chuwei yawned, squinted his eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chunxi's eyes were filled with a joyful smile, just like the magpie on the branch.

"Your Highness is back. Let's get ready and make something delicious for Your Highness."

Shen Chuwei yawned again, "I'm sleepy, let me sleep for a while."

"My lady, His Highness has been away for half a month and is back now. So many people are watching you. If you don't go, someone else will get there first." Chunxi was a little excited.

Shen Chuwei closed his eyes and said, "Chunxi, I fell asleep and couldn't hear you..."

Chunxi looked at Shen Chuwei lying on the couch, and wished he could possess Shen Chuwei and go to the prince to ask about his well-being on her behalf.

But she couldn't take over the fight for favor.

She knew Shen Chuwei too well. She would fall asleep within five seconds if she closed her eyes.

Just do it.

Chunxi sprinkled soybean powder on it, poured some brown sugar juice on it, then put it in a food box and carried the food box to the prince's bedroom.

Xiao Jinyan returned to the palace and asked Liu Xi, "Has anyone come to see me recently?

Liu Xi replied respectfully: "Chang Liangdi and others came to ask when His Highness would return."

Xiao Jinyan pushed open the study door, came to the desk, and saw the dough figure in the pen holder. The dough figure had been there for a long time and had been dried long ago.

The young eunuch stood outside the door and reported, "Your Highness, Concubine Chang Liang is here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chang Liangdi came in with a food box and bowed, "May your highness be blessed with good health."

She walked over with a faint smile on her lips, "Your Highness, this is the specialty snack from Northern Shu that my father brought back this time. I brought it specially for Your Highness to try."

As Chang Liangdi spoke, she opened the food box and took out the oil paper bag.

Xiao Jinyan lowered his eyes and looked at it indifferently. He didn't care much for food, but when he heard that it was a specialty snack, he would think of Xiaojiu, the foodie.

At this time, another young eunuch came to report.

"Your Highness, Chunxi from Xiyun Pavilion requests to see you."

Xiao Jinyan's eyes paused, and a barely perceptible smile flashed across his eyes, "Let her in."

"Yes." The young eunuch stepped back.

Chunxi walked in slowly carrying a food box. Seeing Chang Liangdi was also there, she knew at a glance that she had rushed here as soon as she learned that the prince had returned.

She first bowed to Xiao Jinyan, "May your highness be blessed with good health."

Xiao Jinyan glanced at Chunxi with her phoenix eyes, her gaze fell on the food box in her hand, and asked Chunxi in a cold voice: "What are you doing here?"

Chunxi replied respectfully, "Your Highness, when Concubine Shen learned that Your Highness had returned, she specially asked her maid to bring some delicious snacks for Your Highness to try."

After hearing Chunxi's words, Xiao Jinyan's unhappy mood of the past few days improved a little.

Chunxi put the food box on the table, opened the lid, took out the fried dumplings and put them on the table, then stepped aside.

Chang Liang Di glanced at the snacks on the table, and suddenly raised her lips to ask Chun Xi, "When Shen Liang Di learned that His Highness had returned, why didn't she personally deliver them?"

Hearing this, Xiao Jinyan looked at Chunxi, waiting for her answer.

Chunxi clenched the food box in her hand. Shen Chu was sleeping soundly and had no idea that she was bringing food to His Highness.

If we are discovered, it will be the end.

"Your Highness, the young lady did not sleep last night and is feeling unwell and is now sleeping."

Chang Liang Di asked again: "How can I ask you to bring food to His Highness when he is asleep?"

Xiao Jinyan frowned and ordered Chunxi in a cold voice, "I know, you can go back."

Chunxi felt as if she had received a general amnesty, and bowed, "I'll take my leave."

Then exit the study.

Chang Liangdi watched Chunxi leave in a hurry, feeling that there was something hidden. She raised her eyes to look at Xiao Jinyan and saw that he was staring at the plate of snacks on the table.

The first night Xiao Jinyan returned, he didn't go anywhere and stayed in his own bedroom.

The next evening, Chunxi was eagerly waiting for His Highness, thinking that He would come to Xiyun Pavilion for dinner. However, Shen Chuwei had already finished eating and His Highness did not arrive.

On the sixth day, Chunxi could no longer sit still.

"My lady, His Highness used to go to Xiyun Pavilion every other day. This time he has been away for half a month and has been back for six days, but His Highness has not come once. This servant feels something is wrong."

Shen Chuwei paused while drinking tea. Including the days he was away, Xiao Jinyan hadn't been to Xiyun Pavilion for 21 days.

Good evening!
