Chapter 476 Extra - Male Lead's Style
After returning to the inner room, Ye Qingning instructed Xiaodie to find a nice vase to put the flowers in, and also gave instructions on how to cut them diagonally and how to arrange them in the vase.
Xiaodie felt it wasn't really necessary, since Chuyun Palace had plenty of flowers that Shutong had sent.
But since the Empress had given the order, she had no choice but to comply.
Seeing that Xiaodie was busy by herself, Shutong asked Haitang to help her.
Ye Qingning then led Shu Tong to sit down at the dining table.
The dishes laid out on the table were indeed delicious and visually appealing, and Shu Tong swallowed hard after glancing at them.
Ye Qingning was delighted to see the light in her eyes.
The female lead is indeed the female lead; she is innocent and kind while also being wise and intelligent, and she even has a bit of a foodie side.
No man could dislike a woman like that.
Ye Qingning increasingly felt that it was not difficult to match her with the Crown Prince.
It would be better to bring forward the process of how the two of them got to know each other and stayed together.
The only unexpected thing was that His Highness the Crown Prince was actually Chen Ci... Although he wasn't the divine physician Chen Ci, he had Chen Ci's face, which made her a little more suspicious.
I still hope he can find someone he truly loves.
I hope that person is Shu Tong.
"Eat up." Ye Qingning picked up her chopsticks. "Eat whatever you like."
Shu Tong smiled and said, "Then I won't be polite."
"You're welcome. I really like the gifts you brought me."
Shu Tong smiled and said, "I'm glad you like it, sister. I've also planted some melons, strawberries and other fruits in the garden. When they bear fruit, I'll bring them to you first."
“Great!” Ye Qingning’s eyes lit up. “Make strawberry jam with strawberries and some rock sugar. It’s most delicious after it’s cooled down.”
"Does your sister like it?"
Ye Qingning nodded: "Mm."
Shu Tong carefully noted it down: "Okay, then I'll instruct the palace servants to plant more strawberries."
The two ate and talked, and the atmosphere was really harmonious. Ye Qingning even felt that Shu Tong was an old acquaintance.
Eating with her is the same as eating with Jian Yan, Chen Shi, and Xiao Miao.
I'm very happy.
but……
What needs to be said should always be said.
Ye Qingning served Shu Tong a piece of shrimp with her chopsticks, then said with a faint smile, "I wonder if my sister has heard that I punished a maid this morning."
"I've heard about it."
In Shu Tong's eyes, Ye Qingning has not yet turned evil, and her goal is to prevent her from doing so so that she and the Crown Prince can live happily ever after.
Therefore, he naturally wouldn't use those complicated palace intrigue tactics to feign compliance with Ye Qingning.
Ye Qingning gave her a deep look and explained, "Last night, His Highness the Crown Prince came to Chuyun Palace for dinner. After dinner, he practiced calligraphy in the study for a while, but he fainted because he was overworked in the past few days..."
She observed Shu Tong's expression and continued, "After the imperial physician examined him, His Highness rested in my palace for a few minutes. Once the Crown Prince woke up, he returned directly to his Chengqian Palace."
A hint of regret appeared in Shu Tong's eyes.
So, does this mean there was no further development between the two?
Noticing the thoughtful look in Shu Tong's eyes, Ye Qingning added seriously, "That's all. That maid insisted on distorting the truth and spreading rumors. It's exhausting."
Shu Tong looked at her with sympathy: "I understand how you feel."
Keyboard warriors have existed in every era, as expected!
With her meaning clear, Ye Qingning relaxed, and just then, Chu Song's milk tea was ready.
He came up carrying a tray, his expression gentle and calm, his demeanor measured. Even in simple clothes, his handsome and refined appearance was undeniable.
The man's sharp eyes and extraordinary demeanor made it hard to associate him with an ordinary guard.
Shu Tong sighed silently.
Chu Song has the makings of a male lead!
