My God of Wealth is a Short-lived Ghost

Chapter 118 You can cook! You can’t blow up the kitchen!

"Your Majesty, His Majesty wants to discuss something important with you." Zhao Jinyao suppressed the greed in his eyes when he heard this. "Lead the way," he said, and then followed the maid out of the palace.

Wan Sutong and Zhao Jinghua looked at each other, then bowed to Lin Shuangrong tacitly, "My son, take your leave; my daughter-in-law, take your leave." Lin Shuangrong nodded slightly and watched the two of them leave.

"Jinghua, aren't you bored staying in the jade pendant for the past three years?" Wan Sutong opened the door and turned to look at Zhao Jinghua with some confusion.

Zhao Jinghua chuckled and followed Wan Sutong into the house before closing the door. "It's not boring to be around you."

When Wan Sutong heard this, she immediately turned around and hugged Zhao Jinghua, "You are really good at talking."

Zhao Jinghua gently stroked Wan Sutong's cheek and chuckled, "Okay, don't miss the start of the show."

Wan Sutong nodded repeatedly after hearing this and said, "Quick, quick, the system should play the video as soon as possible."

"Okay." As 0533 finished speaking, a picture appeared in front of the two of them.

In the picture, Zhao Jinyao walked into the hall, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, your humble servant is here to see you." Zhao Jinfang heard the voice, put down the book in his hand and raised his head, "Your Majesty, there is no need to be polite. Please sit down."

Zhao Jinyao nodded slightly and sat on Zhao Jinfang's drooping hand. "I don't know why the emperor wants to see me? But did this minister make a mistake?"

Zhao Jinfang picked up the teacup and sneered, "There is nothing wrong with that. But, when did your brother find out that Si Nian is Jinghua's?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jinyao immediately knelt down with a panicked tone, but in a place where Zhao Jinfang could not see, he had a dark smile on his lips. "I know that Jinghua is guilty of regicide, and shielding a criminal is also a serious crime punishable by the death of nine generations of his family! But I think Jinghua is thinking about you, how could he do such a treasonous thing?"

Wan Sutong laughed and paused the video after hearing this. "He must have imagined this scene countless times in his mind. Once he said this, he immediately confirmed his identity as a good uncle."

Zhao Jinghua chuckled and handed a peeled orange to Wan Sutong's mouth. "Madam, what are you going to do next?"

Wan Sutong opened her mouth and ate the orange, then shrugged and said, "Let's take a look first." After saying that, Wan Sutong clicked on the screen again.

Zhao Jinfang quickly stood up and walked forward to help Zhao Jinyao up. "My brother, please get up. I can't thank you enough. How can I convict you? I just want to know why Jinghua was resurrected."

Zhao Jinyao breathed a sigh of relief and then nodded, "Sinian...had a serious illness three years ago, and was in a coma for two days. The doctors said there was no cure, but for some reason Sinian suddenly woke up after three days and said he saw the eldest royal brother and that it was the eldest royal brother who saved him. I thought that since it was Jinghua who saved my son, I carved a tablet for Jinghua, but the tablet had only been placed in the ancestral hall for a year, and when my son went to burn incense and kowtow,...it...Alas..." At this point, Zhao Jinyao sighed heavily, shook his head with a sad face, and said no more.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhao Jinfang was very anxious, and quickly held Zhao Jinyao's arm and asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhao Jinyao cried out, "My son died, and when he woke up again, his personality had changed drastically. I was so angry that I questioned Jinghua, and then I learned that my son should have died a year ago. It was Jinghua who used his soul to protect my son, allowing him to survive this year. My son was afraid that after he passed away, I would be as heartbroken as you, so he begged Jinghua to let him accompany me. Jinghua told me that if my son hadn't cried so sadly, he wouldn't want to be reborn into this world."

Seeing this, Wan Sutong chuckled and said, "It makes sense. If I hadn't met Zhao Sinian, I would have believed it."

At this time, Zhao Jinfang took a step back with a look of sudden enlightenment on his face. "No wonder Jinghua didn't want to recognize me. It turned out that he didn't want to forgive me." At this point, Zhao Jinfang put his hands behind his back and slightly raised his head to prevent the tears from falling. "After all, I owed him. My brother, please persuade Jinghua for me."

Zhao Jinyao bowed his head and clasped his hands, a hint of pride flashing in his eyes, "Yes, don't worry, my brother."

At this time, the palace maid came in and said, "Your Majesty, it's time to eat."

Zhao Jinfang nodded slightly and looked at Zhao Jinyao, "Would your brother be willing to have dinner with me?"

Zhao Jinyao laughed and said, "Then I'd better obey your command."

At the same time, someone knocked on the door and Chuntao's voice came after a while, "Prince, it's time for the Crown Princess to have dinner."

Wan Sutong closed her eyes and said, "Come in!" Chuntao pushed the door open and walked in, holding a food box in her hand. She then walked to the dining table and took out four dishes, two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes. The pork elbow in soy sauce made Wan Sutong drool. Wan Sutong quickly took Zhao Jinghua's hand and walked to the dining table to sit down. Just as she was about to raise her hand to pick up the chopsticks, she withdrew her hand, looked at Chuntao and smiled, the meaning was self-evident, why don't you leave yet?

Zhao Jinghua saw Wan Sutong's impatient look and chuckled, "Go down, no need to wait on me."

Chun Tao bowed her head slightly and knelt down to salute. "Yes, Prince and Princess, enjoy your meal. I'll take my leave." She took the food box and turned to leave.

Wan Sutong picked up the chopsticks immediately after seeing Chuntao leave. After taking the first bite of the pork elbow, Wan Sutong's eyes lit up immediately, "It's delicious!"

Zhao Jinghua picked up the chopsticks and held his wide sleeve with his left hand to avoid getting his sleeve stained with oil. He picked up a piece of fish and put it in the bowl. He picked out the fish bones and put it in Wan Sutong's bowl.

Wan Sutong giggled and then picked up the fish and put it into her mouth. After a while, Wan Sutong nodded repeatedly, "Delicious! But why does it taste different from the fish in Kyoto!"

"This dish can only be eaten in Lan'an City. If you like it, buy some fish fry and I'll cook it for you." Wan Sutong took a mouthful of rice and looked at Zhao Jinghua in shock. When she spoke, her voice was vague, "You can cook! You can't blow up the kitchen!"

Zhao Jinghua chuckled after hearing this and picked up another piece of fish. "How could that be? If you don't know how to cook during a march, you will starve to death."

Wan Sutong nodded. At this moment, her cheeks were puffy and she looked as cute as a little hamster. "Oh"

0533 At this time, it came to Zhao Jinghua's ear and spoke in a voice that only it and Zhao Jinghua could hear, "Your Majesty Hongyu, are you unable to eat?"

Zhao Jinghua put the fish meat with the bones removed into Wan Sutong's bowl, and at the same time sent a message to 0533, "You don't have to call me that. It's not that I can't eat it. After all, I am a soul. If this body is not properly maintained, it will age faster. The time will be as short as five years or as long as ten years. If it is taken care of properly, a hundred years will not be a problem."

0533 nodded in shock, "Oh~ I see."

At this time, Wan Sutong looked over with doubts in his eyes, "What are you plotting?"

Zhao Jinghua smiled and picked up a piece of Chinese cabbage for Wan Sutong. "I'm guessing which dish you like best."

Wan Sutong looked at 0533 for confirmation, and 0533 nodded repeatedly, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, I guessed it was the pork elbow, and he guessed it was the fish."

Wan Sutong laughed and said, "I like to eat them all." Only then did she notice that Zhao Jinghua had been picking up food for her, but he hadn't actually eaten a single bite. "Jinghua, aren't you hungry? I can eat by myself."

Zhao Jinghua raised his eyebrows slightly and tried to deceive Wan Sutong, "Madam, you are too engrossed in eating. I am full."

Wan Sutong nodded doubtfully, and smiled brightly after a moment, "Hey, maybe the food was too delicious, so I didn't notice whether you had eaten or not."

Zhao Jinghua raised his left hand and touched Wan Sutong's cheek. "Eat it, it will get cold soon." Wan Sutong nodded and started to eat again.

0533 looked at Zhao Jinghua in confusion, "Why didn't you tell my host?"

Zhao Jinghua chuckled softly, "I don't want to disappoint her. No need to ask. You will know tomorrow."

0533 nodded and didn't ask any more questions
