Siqin kowtowed and begged for mercy, and told everything that happened after Ning Ruyan entered the palace today.

The more Nanny Zhao listened, the uglier her expression became.

"Keep to yourself everything you saw and heard today. If I hear anything, I'll hold you responsible."

Nanny Zhao warned Siqin with a gloomy face.

"I dare not. I have advised the master, but he didn't listen." Siqin burst into tears.

"Okay, dry your tears and don't let anyone see any clues. The master still needs you to serve him."

Siqin wiped her tears, wet a handkerchief from the basin and put it on her eyes.

She waited until the redness in her eyes disappeared before she bowed and walked out.

Nanny Zhao began to make preparations for her master's return home tomorrow.

Here, Shen Yunjin was also preparing to return home.

She thought back to her previous life, when she had obtained a secret recipe for having a child by chance.

She walked to the desk and wrote down the secret recipe while recalling it.

Then she wrote a prescription for nourishing the body.

In her previous life, she was in poor health and had the imperial physician in the palace to see her.

She remembered that the imperial physician said at the time that this prescription was very effective in conditioning the bodies of ordinary women.

She blew the ink off the paper and put it in a box, planning to take it back to her aunt tomorrow.

"Concubine, dinner has been brought back." Yuzhi was busy taking the bowls and plates out of the food box.

Just as Shen Yunjin washed his hands and was about to start eating, Xiao Minshen walked in from outside.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" Everyone bowed.

"Has the prince had dinner yet? Would you like to make do with some?" Shen Yunjin asked from the side.

"Yeah." Xiao Minshen responded.

Shen Yunjin opened his mouth slightly and couldn't help but complain in his heart: I was just being polite, who expected you to be so rude.

"I only have the portion here, I wonder if Your Majesty is used to it?"

"It's edible." Xiao Minshen had a cold face and spoke sparingly.

Shen Yunjin secretly wailed in her heart: My Lord, is that what I meant? If you come, I will be hungry!

Shen Yunjin rolled up his sleeves and began to serve food to Xiao Minshen.

Xiao Minshen ate very quickly, but his movements were very elegant, so he didn't seem rude.

When he had finished most of the dish, Xiao Minshen put down his chopsticks.

"I will pick you up and take you back home tomorrow." After saying that, he turned and walked out.

It was as if he just came here to get a free meal.

Shen Yunjin touched his stomach. Fortunately, he was not very hungry as he had eaten a few snacks in the afternoon.

"Concubine, how about I go to the kitchen and ask the cook to make some new dishes?" Yuzhi asked tentatively.

"Forget it. I'm not that hungry now anyway. I can just have a snack later."

Shen Yunjin was used to keeping a low profile and didn't want the people in the palace to think that she was being spoiled.

"Concubine, the prince's long-time attendant Fulu has brought you dinner." Nanny Li replied from outside the door.

Dinner? Why did the prince's dinner arrive only now?

Shen Yunjin and Yuzhi stared at each other, looking confused.

"Concubine, my name is Fulu. The prince just ordered that he eat the concubine's share, so he gave his share to the concubine."

A clever boy said to Shen Yunjin with a smile on his face, while asking the people following him to put the food on the table.

"The prince also said that he would not come to sleep with me tonight. The concubine will go back home by herself tomorrow. The prince will accompany the princess, but he will go to the Shen Mansion to pick up the concubine and go back to the palace together."

Shen Yunjin hurriedly asked Jinzhi to take out a big red envelope and handed it to Fulu, "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's not hard, not hard at all. If you have any problems, just call Fulu." Fulu smiled and nodded.

Fulu grew up with Xiao Minshen, and he knew that the prince had suffered a lot.

He originally thought that following the prince would lead to a life of mediocrity.

Unexpectedly, a few months ago, the prince, who had been seriously ill, suddenly seemed to wake up.

Now, the palace has a mistress, and the prince has a little more down-to-earth feel.

He was happy for the prince every day, and he would be willing to run around the capital even if the concubine asked him to.

After Fulu and his men left, Shen Yunjin walked to the table and was stunned.

Isn't the prince's food too good? There are several kinds of staple food alone, not to mention the various other dishes that are a combination of meat and vegetables.

"Your Highness, you are ignoring such delicious food and eating the concubine's portion instead. Is there something wrong?" Yuzhi couldn't help but be shocked.

Shen Yunjin couldn't figure it out either, and he was too lazy to think about things he couldn't figure out.

When delicious food is in front of you, you must eat it with relish, why bother about anything else?

Shen Yunjin invited Nanny Li and several maids to have dinner together.

The food that the master couldn't finish was originally intended to be given to the servants.

It’s just that today’s meal was delivered late. If Shen Yunjin had waited until he finished eating it, it would have been completely cold.

Unable to refuse, Nanny Li sat down with half of her buttocks. The others brought a small table and squatted beside it to eat.

"The food here is so delicious, my Lord. I hope he can eat it more often." Yuzhi touched her stomach with satisfaction.

"It's a blessing from our ancestors that we are lucky enough to have this meal once. How dare you dream of having it more times, little rascal?" Nanny Li scolded with a smile.

Shen Yunjin watched them joking with a smile, wondering in her heart, is this King Qi's compensation for not being able to accompany her back home tomorrow?

The next morning, Shen Yunjin woke up before dawn.

In her previous life, she returned home with her husband, but was ignored.

In this life, she returns home alone, wondering what she will face?

"Concubine, the carriage is ready, the prince and princess have already left. Should we wait for a while or set off now?" asked Nanny Li, standing at the door.

"Madame Li, you stay here today. Jinzhi and Hongliu will accompany me back home."

With the help of Jinzhi, Shen Yunjin came to the side door of the palace, only to see Fulu standing next to the carriage with a smile on his face.

"I have met the concubine. The prince has prepared a return gift for her and asked me to accompany her back home."

"Thank you for the trip." Shen Yunjin stroked the maid's hand and got on the carriage.

It seems that the King of Qi is not as indifferent as he appears.

At the Shen Mansion, as soon as Shen Yunchu got off the carriage, he threw himself into Shen's mother's arms.

Mother Shen held her daughter in her arms, tears streaming down her face. She looked Shen Yunchu up and down, saying, "You've lost weight, you've lost weight."

Shen Yunchu pushed his mother away awkwardly, "Mom, you're exaggerating, right? It's only been two days, how can you be thinner?"

Zhao Jingyan stood aside silently, like the gentle breeze and bright moon. Shen's father hurriedly called his son-in-law to go to the study.

When her two granddaughters got married, Mrs. Shen was ill and did not attend.

Today is the day when the two granddaughters come back to visit their parents. In order not to disappoint Mr. Shen, Mrs. Shen made a special trip here.

She saw Shen Yunchu walking in with a happy face and nodded secretly. It seemed that her eldest granddaughter was very satisfied with this marriage.

"Why haven't we seen Yunjin come back home yet?" asked the old lady.

"She's just a concubine, how could anyone accompany her back home?" Shen Yunchu smiled proudly, covering his mouth with his hands.

"What are you talking about, sister? Can't I go back home alone?" Shen Yunjin walked in from outside.
