Marrying the dandy prince, the princess wants to usurp the throne

Seeing that Mu Jiusheng's face was full of disbelief, Chu Shengkang chuckled, "Okay, okay, I'm not like that. I'll treat you to lunch today. How about that? Didn't you take a fancy to the chef in our imperial kitchen last time? Don't ask him to cook for you. You can eat whatever you want."

"Really?" Mu Jiusheng's eyes lit up.

Chu Shengkang is the chef in the palace, but he is the best cook she has ever seen except for Mu Qingluo!

"Look at what you said, kid. I am so old, can I still lie to you? Hurry up and go, go."

Chu Shengkang said as he was about to take Mu Jiusheng to the palace.

Mu Jiusheng narrowed his eyes, "I was wondering if you were hungry, so you were looking for an excuse to get me to eat with you?"

"How is that possible? You must be overthinking it."

Chu Shengkang chuckled.

Mu Jiusheng didn't intend to pursue the matter, it was just a joke.

Come to think of it, she has been in this world for so long, and Chu Shengkang is still the most friendly emperor she has ever seen.

What Mu Jiusheng didn't know was that Chu Shengkang fell in love with her the first time he saw her.

Because she was so dazzling, no one could ignore the brilliance of Mu Jiusheng, and Chu Shengkang himself had no daughter, and the concubines in the harem all gave birth to sons, and each of them gave him a lot of worries.

So after seeing such a beautiful Mu Jiusheng, Chu Shengkang wanted to get in touch with her from the bottom of his heart.

After it was over, he felt that Mu Jiusheng was a very smart, intelligent girl with her own ideas, so in his heart he had already regarded Mu Jiusheng as his own daughter.

How could he possibly act like an emperor in front of his own daughter?

After Mu Jiusheng followed Chu Shengkang to the palace, Quan Sheng called Deng Caisheng over.

Deng Caisheng was the chef of the imperial kitchen, in charge of the meals of the entire imperial kitchen.

After seeing Mu Jiusheng, Deng Caisheng walked up to him and asked, "What would you like to eat today, Your Highness?"

"If you want to eat something refreshing, Grandpa Deng will make it for you." Mu Jiusheng did not forget to tease Chu Shengkang, "Besides, it is His Majesty who is hungry, not me."

"How can you talk like that, kid? I brought you to the palace with good intentions to treat you to a meal. And you're still teasing an old man like me!"

Chu Shengkang was speechless.

Mu Jiusheng raised his eyebrows, "If Your Majesty does not want me to accompany Your Majesty for dinner, then Ah Sheng will withdraw."

Mu Jiusheng said this and was about to leave.

Chu Shengkang was helpless. "Okay, okay, just make it for me. I'm hungry. Okay. I'm really scared of you, little ancestor. Hurry up and sit down and eat with me."

Deng Caisheng nodded with a smile, "Okay, I'll get ready right away."

He originally worked in the imperial kitchen, preparing meals for His Majesty and the concubines in the harem every day. There was nothing else to do.

But after Mu Jiusheng came, he had one more hobby, which was to prepare delicious food for her.

This girl is very sweet-talking. Every time he prepares food for her, she can always give him a lot of good points, which makes him feel embarrassed. However, these dishes are made by him with his heart, and he is naturally the happiest when someone is willing to give sincere comments.

So, Deng Caisheng has been looking forward to Mu Jiusheng's arrival!

Soon, Deng Caisheng prepared a table of food.

Mu Jiusheng's eyes lit up as he looked at the watermelon dessert.

"Grandpa Deng's cooking skills are really great! On such a hot day, we should eat something refreshing like this!"

Mu Jiusheng was eating the watermelon happily.

There is also watermelon juice, which she also taught Deng Caisheng.

After Deng Caisheng followed her method, he discovered a new world. In just a few days, he developed recipes for several kinds of fruits, all of which tasted great when combined.

It has been popular in the palace for some time.

"Your Highness, thank you for the compliment. As long as Your Highness likes it, that's good."

Deng Caisheng retreated happily.

When Mu Jiusheng was eating happily, he suddenly heard Quan Sheng's voice, "Your Majesty, Concubine De wants to see you."

"De Fei? What is she doing here?"

Chu Shengkang looked unhappy. He and his daughter were having a good meal. Why did they come to him instead of eating in their own palace at noon? !

However, thinking that Concubine De must have something urgent to do, Chu Shengkang still asked Quan Sheng to bring the person in.

When Concubine De came in and saw Mu Jiusheng, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

After seeing the dishes and chopsticks in front of Mu Jiusheng, the surprise in his eyes became even stronger.

His Majesty never likes to get close to people, nor does he like to let others get close to him. I have never seen him be so caring to any woman, and I have never seen him sit at the same table with any woman.

I wonder what’s going on now?

While Concubine De was thinking about her life, Chu Shengkang asked impatiently, "What are you doing here in the middle of the day?"

De Fei came back to her senses at this time, "Your Majesty Qin, autumn is coming soon. I think the harem has not had a feast for many years. Your Majesty, can you take advantage of the autumn banquet to invite some beautiful girls into the palace?"

In the harem, the queen was weak and died many years ago. Now Concubine De is the eldest.

However, when Defei was young, she accidentally fell into the water and caught a cold. From then on, she could never get pregnant again.

Therefore, even though she is now in charge of the harem, there are still people who do not submit to her.

This time, she must have wanted to ask her sisters to come to the palace to help her.

What Mu Jiusheng could think of, Chu Shengkang could naturally think of.

However, he didn't care about these things. "Just take care of it yourself. If you have nothing else to do, just leave."

This sentence meant agreement, and Defei happily withdrew.

Mu Jiusheng tilted his head and looked at Chu Shengkang, "You are so old, and you are still planning to recruit concubines into the palace."

"What? You have an opinion again, girl?"

Chu Shengkang glanced at her and said, "I am not interested in those women. I am already a few years old. How can I kiss and hug a little girl?

But you also saw how Defei looked just now. If I don't agree, I will be the one who will be upset. They asked Defei to come and invite me today, and they will dare to confront me in the court tomorrow. Instead of worrying about these, it is better to agree directly. Anyway, I don't have many years left. If they want their daughter to come in and die, I don't mind. "

Chu Shengkang had a faint sense of death.

A dark light flashed across Mu Jiusheng's eyes. She naturally knew that Chu Shengkang was right.

but……

"I can help you for three years. Three years. If we can find the person behind the scenes in Southern Xinjiang, you might be able to live two more years. Don't say such discouraging words."

Mu Jiusheng looked at Chu Shengkang and sighed, "What you said makes sense, but there are too many things in this world that women cannot decide. Who knows, some of the concubines who came in did not come in willingly, but were forced to do so."
