"Of course you can eat it, otherwise why would it be called lettuce? Your Highness, don't worry about eating it."

In fact, she doesn't know why it's called lettuce.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinyan took the lettuce and lamb roll from Shen Chuwei's hand with his slender fingers, hesitated for a moment, put it into his mouth, took a bite, and chewed slowly. Although the vegetable was raw, it was crisp and sweet, and it didn't feel greasy when eaten with the roast lamb.

It's just a little spicy~ Suddenly, a white figure jumped down from the wall, ran all the way over, and jumped directly into Shen Chuwei's legs. It was so fast, as if it was being chased by someone.

Shen Chuwei felt her legs sink. She looked down and saw Xuetuan looking at her aggrievedly, "Meow."

"Xuetuan, you came just in time. We have roasted lamb to eat."

Xiao Jinyan glanced at Xuetuan, but Xuetuan turned his head away and ignored him. It seemed as if he was saying, you came here to eat and drink without even taking me with you!

"..." Still angry? Shen Chuwei stared at Xiao Jinyan expectantly, and waited until he finished eating before asking: "Your Highness, how does it taste?"

Xiao Jinyan raised the corners of his lips slightly, "It tastes better than I thought."

"Your Highness, this vegetable is best eaten raw, but it also tastes good if fried." While Shen Chuwei was talking, the two hands did not stop and fed Xuetuan a piece first.

Then she picked up a piece of mutton, added a little minced garlic, and put it directly into her mouth. With all the seasonings, it tasted several times better than the one at the welcoming banquet. She showed a satisfied expression.

Seeing that Shen Chuwei ate differently from him, Xiao Jinyan couldn't help but ask, "Why don't you use lettuce and peppers?"

Shen Chuwei had mutton in her mouth and spoke unclearly: "Your Highness, I want to eat a few bites of the original flavor first, and then wrap it with lettuce and peppers when I get tired of it."

Xiao Jinyan suddenly felt a burning sensation in his mouth and thought, how do you know that I don’t want to try the original flavor first?

At this time, Eunuch Liu considerately placed a cup of warm water in front of His Highness. Seeing His Highness's lips were red and swollen due to the spicy food, he sighed and stepped aside.

Xiao Jinyan calmly picked up the teacup and took a few sips of tea to relieve the burning feeling in his mouth.

Shen Chuwei ate a few pieces of roasted lamb. Seeing Xiao Jinyan finished eating and was drinking water, she picked up a disposable glove and asked him, "Your Highness, do you need me to put on gloves for you?"

There are a lot of disposable gloves in the space~ Xiao Jinyan put down the teacup and looked at Shen Chuwei in confusion, "Huh?"

Shen Chuwei explained: "If you wear this, your hands won't get dirty. Your Highness can eat whatever flavor you want."

When Xiao Jinyan dined with the women in the East Palace, they all vied to serve him food, but Shen Chuwei was the first one to let him do it himself.

"Put it on for me."

"Okay."

Xiao Jinyan stretched out his hands in front of her.

Shen Chuwei held a glove and looked at the hands in front of her. When they first met, she only knew that his hands were big. Now looking at him up close, his hands were not only big but also beautiful, with slender fingers and clean without a speck of dust.

After she carefully put on two gloves for him, she saw his sleeves. Such wide sleeves would definitely hinder him from eating delicious food, so she took the initiative to roll up his sleeves to his elbows.

Xiao Jinyan watched Shen Chuwei roll up her sleeves on her own initiative. If it was someone else, he would definitely think it was a deliberate seduction.

As for Shen Chuwei, after spending some time with her, I discovered that she was different from other women.

When the sleeves were rolled up to reveal a white wrist, Shen Chuwei couldn't help but praise it, "Wow, such white and tender skin, it must be better to touch than the hand."

Xiao Jinyan: “…” Are you praising me like this?

Shen Chuwei raised her childish face and said, "Your Highness, you can enjoy your meal now."

Xiao Jinyan did not comment, but lowered his eyes to look at his wrist. He felt a little uncomfortable, but it was a lot more convenient. He imitated Shen Chuwei and used his hands to pick up the lettuce, put the mutton on it, slowly rolled it up, and ate it leisurely.

Shen Chuwei was feeding Xuetuan with mutton, and she saw that Xiao Jinyan only took lettuce and mutton. She took a look at the garlic chili sauce and suddenly realized that Xiao Jinyan might not eat garlic or spicy food.

Xiao Jinyan heard all of Shen Chuwei's guilt. He turned his head and looked at Shen Chuwei calmly. She was stuffing a piece of mutton into her mouth...

"Shen Fengyi."

Shen Chuwei raised his head and looked at Xiao Jinyan with a guilty conscience. He swallowed the mutton before asking, "Your Highness, do you have any instructions?"

Xiao Jinyan spoke slowly: "You helped me out today, and I have always been clear about rewards and punishments."

When Shen Chuwei heard that there was a reward, she subconsciously thought it was food. She curved her eyebrows and said, "Your Highness is too polite. These are what I should do."

Xiao Jinyan nodded, "Yes, I will promote you to be Liang Di."

Even if the Queen was not satisfied and would be angry afterwards, he was determined to promote Shen Chuwei so that she could be on equal footing with Chang Liangdi.

When Shen Chuwei heard about promotion in rank, she didn't feel anything at first, but later she realized that promotion in rank was not a good thing.

Because promotion involves too much...

"Your Highness, can I exchange for a reward?" She negotiated cautiously, fearing that the prince would be unhappy.

Xiao Jinyan's eyes flashed with surprise, "Why?"

Shen Chuwei explained: "I have just been punished. It is inappropriate for Your Highness to reward me today."

Xiao Jinyan didn't expect her to refuse. If it were someone else, they would have happily bowed and expressed gratitude.

"You really don't want the title of Liang Di?"

Shen Chuwei shook his head vigorously.

Xiao Jinyan chuckled, "Forget it, whatever you want."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Shen Chuwei then continued to eat the mutton with peace of mind, but she was a little tired of it, so she started to eat it by wrapping it with lettuce.

Xiao Jinyan saw that there was still a lot of mutton, and he and Shen Chuwei would definitely not be able to finish it. Thinking of Xiao Jinyu, he ordered: "Eunuch Liu, send some roasted mutton for the Seventh Prince to try."

"Here." With Chunxi's help, Eunuch Liu cut off a piece and put it on the plate, then took out the food box and put it in.

When Xiao Jinyan saw the lettuce, he said, "Put some lettuce in so he doesn't get tired of it."

"Here." Eunuch Liu took some lettuce and put it in, then he closed the lid of the food box and carried the food box to Qiancheng Hall.

Xiao Jinyan felt full after eating a little, so he took off his gloves, picked up the teacup and drank some tea to help him get rid of the greasiness.

When Shen Chuwei saw this, she immediately stood up and walked into the house. When she came out, she had a cup of tea in her hand.

Xiao Jinyan looked at her suspiciously as she walked over and placed the teacup in front of him, "What is this?"

Shen Chuwei explained: "Your Highness, this is lemon honey tea, it protects your throat."

I see.

Xiao Jinyan put down the teacup in his hand, picked up the tea prepared by Shen Chuwei, handed it to his lips and took a sip. It had a hint of sourness and mostly sweetness but not greasy, so he drank two more sips.

There is one more chapter, which will be updated later.
