My Lady is well

Shen Yueyao pulled him to sit next to the food table, her peach blossom eyes filled with ripples as she smiled sweetly.

"Your Highness, what kind of dishes do you like to eat on weekdays? I will ask the kitchen to make them for you next time."

Jing Ruzhang glanced at her and said coldly.

"Don't you know that asking about my preferences at random is against palace rules?"

Shen Yueyao choked and blinked, her long eyelashes fluttering, lively and seductive.

She smiled awkwardly and said, "I know I was wrong, I won't ask any more questions."

She looked at the steamed mandarin fish on the plate and found it delicious. She raised her hand and picked up a piece of the soft meat from the fish belly and gave it to him.

Jing Ruzhang looked at the fish meat and then stared at her.

"I don't like eating fish."

"..."

Shen Yueyao felt like a horse hitting its hooves.

She put the fish on her plate.

If you don't like light food, then you like heavy flavored food.

She picked up another piece of roasted lamb for him.

"I don't eat strong-smelling food."

"..."

Shen Yueyao sneered in her heart, and forced the corner of her lips to pick up a piece of crystal lotus seed cake for him.

This must be what he likes!

"I will not eat crystal lotus seed cake made by anyone other than my mother."

"..."

She finally understood why he never tasted the cakes she gave him before.

So this is the reason.

Shen Yueyao thought about it and decided that she really didn't need to keep him this time, so she put down her chopsticks, stood up and bowed.

"Your Highness, please make yourself at your own convenience."

Jing Ruzhang's eyes were stern, with a hint of mockery in them.

"Is this your sincerity?"

Shen Yueyao lowered her head and said, "I am stupid. The dishes at Liu Fengxuan are not to your liking."

When Li Shunhou heard this at the door, he frowned secretly.

I was just praising Master Shen for his prowess, why is he so ignorant now?

If this continues, he will definitely offend His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Jing Ruzhang stared at her with a pair of dark eyes, which were cold, calm, yet faintly teasing, making it difficult to understand and discern his emotions.

"Stupid, yes, that's true."

Shen Yueyao was a little irritated by his tone. She frowned slightly and said stubbornly.

"I am stupid and I dare not presume to guess your Highness's mind and taste. Your Highness should find a palace that suits your taste to have dinner. I dare not delay your Highness's dinner time."

Li Shun took a breath of cold air. Could it be that Master Shen was mentally ill?

Which woman would push His Royal Highness the Crown Prince away?

What exactly did the Sixth Prince see in Master Shen?

Are you brave?

Sooner or later, he will be abandoned by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

Jing Ruzhang's eyes deepened, and his gaze was fixed on her expression. Shen Yueyao raised her eyes, her body stiffened, and she turned her head slightly to avoid his sight.

"You don't look sincere at all. You don't look like you want to see me."

Shen Yueyao's heart tightened. Why was this man so difficult to deal with?

She pinched her palms, causing some sparkling tears to well up in her eye sockets, and looked at him tenderly.

"I am just... annoyed that I am stupid and cannot please His Highness. I am not..."

"Not what?"

She lowered her long eyelashes and lowered her voice, sounding delicate and a little aggrieved.

"I don't really want Your Highness to leave."

Jing Ruzhang curled the corner of his mouth slightly, knowing full well that there was no truth in her words.

Seeing her being stubborn but having to bow down before him, pretending to be wronged, he still felt somewhat satisfied.

He raised his hand and slowly picked up a piece of vegetable with chopsticks.

This meal is considered to have been eaten.

The low-hanging curtains conceal the beautiful scene, while a faint fragrance floats quietly in the curtains.

Shen Yueyao's eyes were closed, her eyelashes were wet, and her long hair was scattered on the pillow.

The messy black and clean white made her skin look like jade, delicate and smooth. Her exquisite porcelain face was faintly pink, and her red lips were opening and closing due to her rapid breathing, making her look charming and attractive.

She didn't know whether she fell asleep or fainted. When she woke up, she felt as if all the bones in her body were broken.

When Jin'er was bathing her, she blushed and lowered her head, not daring to look at her.

He just muttered quietly.

"Your Highness, why is this happening..."

Shen Yueyao closed her eyes and leaned against the bathtub, seeming to be enduring something, yet also thinking.

"master......"

"If you have something to say, just say it."

Shen Yueyao felt a little annoyed when she heard her hesitation.

"His Royal Highness said..."

"say what?"

"He said...you went to the front yard without permission yesterday and asked about the prince's preferences. He asked you...to copy the "Instructions for Women" fifty times and be confined to your room for ten days as a punishment."

"..."

Shen Yueyao suddenly opened her eyes, a cold light flashed in them, and she squeezed out two words coldly from between her teeth.

"Beast!"

"master......"

Look, this man is so powerful, desire is desire, and feelings are feelings.

Therefore, you must not have any illusions about him.

He will still kill her after he becomes emperor. She can't stay in this palace. She must find a way to get out in the future.

She glanced at the door through the embroidered screen and thought to herself that being punished was not such a bad thing.

So that Jing Lince would know that no woman could shake Jing Ruzhang's heart.

Jin'er glanced at the door secretly and whispered into Shen Yueyao's ear.

"Master, I have completed what you ordered me to do."

Shen Yueyao closed her eyes again, with the corners of her lips slightly raised.

I thought to myself, Jing Lince, you gave me an unforgettable gift. It would be rude not to reciprocate, so I will give you a gift in return.

you are welcome!

Shen Yueyao was wearing a misty silk dress with a white lotus pattern that trailed on the ground. She was holding a pen and writing furiously. Jin'er was grinding ink and wanted to speak but was afraid to disturb her.

Chunfeng held a mahogany table, presented a bowl of lotus root powder and lotus seed soup, and bowed.

"Master, you have been writing for more than an hour, take a break."

Shen Yueyao raised her eyelids slightly and glanced at her, and saw that she was smiling at her happily like a fool.

Her eyebrows flickered slightly, her eyes turned, and she glanced at Jin'er. The two girls exchanged glances.

Shen Yueyao smiled inwardly, put down her pen, casually took the lotus root powder and lotus seed soup from the table, brought it to her mouth, and gently stirred it with a spoon.

"Look at you guys, what's the matter? Tell me."

Jin'er looked at her expectantly.

"Master, since we read The Legend of the White Snake, we can't read other novels. We feel that there is nothing new. You see, since you are also under house arrest, can you write two more for us?"

"Oh, you're being so nice to me for no reason. It turns out you're waiting for me here."

"master......"

She had quite a few stories in her mind, but she had too many things to do right now, and she had to rack her brains to think of how to save her life, so she really couldn't spare the energy to write any storybooks.

"Writing a storybook? Do you want to help me copy "The Women's Ring"?"

The two looked at each other awkwardly, and Chunfeng lowered his head.

"Master, the prince is very observant and will tell at a glance that it was not written by you. Then... he will definitely embarrass you."

Shen Yueyao smiled bitterly: "You know that the prince will embarrass me, but you don't think of a way for me. You think about the storybook all day long. You are really my good maid!"

After hearing this, both of them lowered their heads in shame, and Jin'er complained with a red face.

"Your Highness, how can you be so shameless? I've already asked you to sleep with me, so why do you have to punish me?"

Chun Feng sighed and said, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always had this temper. Two years ago, I heard that the Crown Princess' cousin committed a crime and brought the matter to the Crown Prince. He immediately killed the man without blinking an eye. No matter how much the Crown Princess pleaded, it was useless."

Shen Yueyao nodded. This kind of person is indeed a good material for being a loner.

Jin'er was surprised and said, "There is such a thing? Miss, do you still remember the scholar Du who lived next door to the Shen Mansion? He said he wanted to marry you back then, but later he won the second place in the imperial examination and married the daughter of the Prime Minister. You scolded him for three days. His cousin killed someone in the street, and the government arrested him. When they heard that it was the cousin of Du Bangyan, they released him secretly in a short time. At that time, many people said, how great it would be if you had a powerful relative! You wouldn't have to be afraid of killing people. Now it seems that you still have to be afraid. If you have a relative like the prince, you can chop him off yourself without the need for a county magistrate."

Shen Yueyao actually heard a hint of pity for the Crown Princess' cousin from her words. He thought he shouldn't have such a relative as the Crown Prince. It would have been better if it was Du Bangyan instead.

This girl’s sense of right and wrong is a bit... hard to describe.
