Lin Zan was completely confused. When he thought about the failure of his plan to play a prank on Jun Beiqi, he became increasingly depressed.

Just like that, Jun Beiqi tore the rabbit meat in his hand piece by piece with graceful movements and quickly finished eating it without changing his expression.

"Your Highness, do you think this rabbit meat is delicious?" Lin Zan asked Jun Beiqi cautiously.

Jun Beiqi actually nodded directly. "It has a unique flavor."

“Would you like to have another piece?” Lin Zan instantly brought the rabbit meat with double the amount of peppercorns in front of Jun Beiqi again and looked at him expectantly.

The two people looked at each other, and Jun Beiqi looked at Lin Zan as calmly as a pool of stagnant water.

His penetrating eyes made Lin Zhan, who was already feeling guilty, shrink his neck.

The next second, Jun Beiqi suddenly stood up, walked to Lin Zhan, and took the rabbit meat from her. "Ms. Lin, you have worked hard to roast the rabbit meat for me. I have decided to feed you myself."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jun Beiqi tore off a piece of rabbit meat, which was covered with densely packed Sichuan peppercorns, which made Lin Zan's scalp tingle.

"Your Highness, I am of low status, so I am not worthy of Your Highness to feed me. I can eat by myself." Are you kidding? Eating so many peppercorns will make my mouth numb.

Lin Zhan quickly said to refuse, but Jun Beiqi also had an attitude that could not be questioned. "Why, Miss Lin, do you think I am not worthy of feeding you?"

"What are you talking about, Your Highness? It should be me who is not worthy." Lin Zan said bitterly, knowing that she could not refuse. After all, the piece of pepper rabbit meat had been handed to her mouth.

It's death whether early or late, so it's better to die quickly. Lin Zan closed her eyes and opened her mouth, and the piece of rabbit meat sprinkled with peppercorns was stuffed into her mouth by Jun Beiqi.

The next moment, the unique spicy and numbing taste of Sichuan pepper attacked Lin Zhan's taste buds, making her almost spit out the piece of rabbit meat in her mouth.

"Ms. Lin, please don't let me down. If you spit out the rabbit meat, you will lose your head." Jun Beiqi threatened Lin Zhan nakedly.

Lin Zhan, with tears in his eyes, chewed the piece of rabbit meat and said to Jun Beiqi in an angry tone, "I really want to thank His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. He is so kind to me."

"This is all as it should be. Miss Lin is so excited while eating. I'm sure the rabbit meat must be very delicious. I will feed you another piece."

Jun Beiqi had a mysterious smile on his face, picked up another piece of rabbit meat, and stuffed it into Lin Zhan's mouth.

And he deliberately asked Lin Zhan, "Is the rabbit meat really so delicious? It made you cry."

"Delicious, the rabbit meat with added ingredients is so delicious!" Lin Zhan could only swallow the piece of rabbit meat forcefully.

After playing tricks on Lin Zhan, Jun Beiqi was in a good mood. He stuffed the remaining rabbit meat into Lin Zhan's hand and turned away.

After Jun Beiqi left, Lin Zhan hurriedly shook off all the peppercorns on the rabbit meat, and then took a few big gulps of water to dilute the taste of peppercorns in his mouth.

"What a sinister person!" Lin Zan curled his lips and commented to Jun Beiqi.

After dinner, everyone planned to rest in the valley for one night and set off again early tomorrow morning. Although Lin Zan was young, she was a girl after all, so Yuanzheng gave up his carriage and let her live alone.

The morning light slowly filtered through the gaps between the leaves, sprinkling mottled light on the grass. The cheerful chirping of birds woke up the convoy.

Lin Zan stretched and got out of the carriage. Then he saw the little eunuch beside Jun Beiqi walking towards him holding something.

For a moment, Lin Zhan had a bad feeling in her heart. Sure enough, the little eunuch came over and handed the thing in his hand to her.

"Miss Lin, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that food is hard to come by. He hopes that Miss Lin will not waste the leftover rabbit meat from last night." The little eunuch said with a smile, but his words were extremely cruel.

Lin Zan's good mood in the morning was instantly destroyed by his words. His face immediately fell. Looking at the rabbit meat roasted last night, he felt like crying but had no tears.

And now she was 100% sure that Jun Beiqi must have known that she had played a prank on him yesterday, so he used rabbit meat to take revenge on her today.

However, since the prince had given the order, Lin Zhan did not dare to disobey. He could only smile awkwardly and took the rabbit meat from the eunuch.

"His Royal Highness also said that Miss Lin likes to eat rabbit meat with seasonings the most, so this morning I asked me to pick some spices for the night and sprinkle them on the rabbit meat. I hope Miss Lin enjoys it."

This time, the smile on Lin Zan's face completely disappeared. Looking at the black layer of peppercorns on the surface of the rabbit meat, he didn't know what to say.

The young eunuch returned to the carriage and described Lin Zan's expression in detail to Jun Beiqi.

This made Jun Beiqi in a good mood. The convoy continued to move forward. Lin Zhan secretly hid the rabbit meat and of course would not really eat it.

After a long journey of nearly half a month, everyone finally arrived in the southwest region. As soon as they entered the southwest border, some victims rushed to the front of the convoy.

"Please, sir, give us something to eat."

"Master, please be kind and save us from this sea of ​​suffering!"

Listening to the noisy sounds outside, Lin Zhan quietly lifted the curtain and looked out, and found that both sides of the avenue were full of hungry victims. They were skinny and had lifeless faces.

When they saw a convoy of wealthy merchants passing by on the road, they would rush over and ask for food, but most of them would be driven away by the servants and guards.

However, the victims did not stay in front of the convoy for long before they were driven away by local officials.

The Southwest Governor Wei Youli quickly stepped forward to greet the prince. Lin Zhan opened the curtain and looked at Wei Youli.

In the original book, Wei Youli concealed the disaster and was reprimanded by the emperor, who then reprimanded him for returning to the southwest to resettle the victims.

When watching this plot, Lin Zan found it very strange. Wei Youli committed such a serious crime, but the emperor not only did not dismiss him from his position, but instead allowed him to return to the southwest to assist Jun Beiyu and comfort the victims in the southwest together.

However, at this moment, the person Wei Youli assisted was no longer Jun Beiyu, but Jun Beiqi.

"Welcome to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Wei Youli, a thin man with a dark complexion and a pair of rat-like eyes that turned shrewdly, came to the most luxurious carriage and said.

Jun Beiqi in the carriage said coldly, "Let's go back to the government office first."

"Yes." Wei Youli quickly took a step back, then ordered the officers and soldiers to clear the way and block the victims on both sides of the road.

Lin Zhan felt a little bit of pity when he saw the hungry and emaciated disaster victims.
