The delicate cannon fodder is stunning, saving the male supporting role but getting teased instead

"Rou Rou, when you go there, you must talk less. It is said that the prince has a withdrawn personality. Once, a eunuch said something wrong and had his tongue cut off by the prince." The little palace maid looked at her companion who was packing her bags and whispered.

They were originally the lowest-ranking maids, but Wenrou was suddenly chosen to serve the prince. This job was not easy to do, and she was worse than a maid, otherwise this job would not have fallen to Wenrou.

The Crown Prince had always been eccentric and difficult to serve, and now everyone knew that he had been disliked by His Majesty. He was currently imprisoned in the Eastern Palace, and serving him was tantamount to being imprisoned himself.

The Crown Prince had committed a heinous crime, and His Majesty had dealt with all his palace servants. Now that the Crown Prince was alone, His Majesty had sent a young maid to look after him, a gesture of grace.

Of course no one was willing to take this job, so after a lot of twists and turns, it miraculously fell on Wenrou.

Perhaps everything has a clue. Wenrou was a young maidservant newly arrived in the imperial palace. Her hometown was devastated by a flood, and she fled to the capital with her father and stepmother. Upon arrival, her father fell seriously ill and needed money for medical treatment. Her stepmother had no choice but to sell Wenrou to raise money to save her father. The stepmother was actually quite kind to Wenrou. She didn't want to send her to such a filthy place, but she was also afraid she would be bullied by a wealthy family. Later, she somehow found a way to send Wenrou to the imperial palace in exchange for a sum of money. In her naive understanding, the palace belonged to the emperor, and entering it offered protection.

Wenrou's father was actually a barefoot doctor, but as the old saying goes, a doctor can hardly treat himself. Wenrou also knew medicine, and his skills were quite good. But no matter how good his medical skills were, they were useless without money to buy medicine.

Back to the present, Wenrou was chosen to go to the Eastern Palace because she heard that serving the Crown Prince would pay her a lot of money. She was anxious to earn more money for her father, so she stepped forward and signed up.

"Well, don't worry. I will definitely remain mute!" Wenrou raised her hand and said as if swearing.

The young palace maid sighed. She said this because Wenrou was a complete chatterbox, her mouth never stopping. She was really afraid that her little sister would have her tongue plucked out as soon as she entered the Eastern Palace.

No matter how worried the little palace maid was, Wenrou still went to the East Palace with her meager luggage.

He took the gentle little eunuch, left her at the gate of the East Palace and ran away, as if there was some ferocious beast living there.

Wenrou blinked her eyes and watched the eunuch run away. She could only wander around the East Palace by herself, looking for the maid's quarters where she would live from now on.

After all, the Eastern Palace was where the crown princes of all generations lived. Even though it had become a place of confinement, it was still terrifyingly large.

Wenrou turned around several times inside, and she was completely dizzy. She touched her hungry stomach and sighed sadly.

"Alas, why is this palace built so big? I have to walk so much every day and eat more food." Wenrou sat on the doorstep, holding her face, and muttered to herself while resting.

"Alas, I came here to serve the prince, but he hasn't even seen me, and I'm almost starving to death. I wonder if the prince will starve to death without anyone to take care of him." Wenrou thought worriedly. However, she usually spoke out whatever she was thinking.

"Xiao Cui said the prince loved to pull out people's tongues. I never thought I'd be starved to death instead of having my tongue pulled out," Wang Tian sighed softly and sadly. She really wanted to eat the beggar's chicken her father made.

"Beggar's chicken should be cooked until it's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It should be fragrant and oily when the lotus leaf is opened. That's how it tastes." Wenrou closed her eyes and imagined what beggar's chicken looked like, but the more she thought about it, the hungrier she became, and her stomach growled.

Yan Heng was sitting in his room reading scriptures when he heard a crisp voice that kept mumbling. Yan Heng didn't want to pay attention to it, but the voice seemed to have no end.

Yan Heng had no choice but to put down the scriptures and walk out. When he got outside, he saw a little palace maid sitting by the gate of his palace, shaking her head and muttering to herself.

Yan Heng frowned, and only when he got closer could he hear what she was saying. When he heard about beggar's chicken, Yan Heng was also feeling a little hungry. Since all the palace servants had been taken away, he had no one to bring him food, and now he hadn't eaten for a whole day.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but interrupt the little palace maid's monologue.

"How long are you going to stay here?" Yan Heng said in a cold voice.

Wenrou was startled by the sudden sound. She turned around hurriedly and saw a handsome man in a black robe standing there, frowning at her.

Wenrou had walked around for several times without encountering a single living person. Suddenly, she was overjoyed to see a living person. She quickly stood up, brushed off the dirt on her clothes, and said in a familiar voice, "You're so beautiful! Are you a eunuch in the palace? I'm lost. Do you know how to get to the maid's quarters?"

Wenrou sputtered a lot, but Yan Heng only heard the word "eunuch". His face darkened and he shouted angrily, "How dare you say I'm a eunuch!"

Wenrou was startled and only then noticed that the other person had an Adam's apple. When she heard the name "Gu", she realized the identity of the person in front of her. He was the prince she was supposed to serve.

Wenrou quickly waved her hands and apologized repeatedly: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. You are just too beautiful!" Wenrou had been working as a maid since entering the palace. She had never taken etiquette classes properly, so she seemed a little rude.

"How dare you! Why don't you kneel down when you see me? You even call yourself "me". Do you think you can treat me casually just because I'm a deposed prince?" Yan Heng became even angrier and pointed at Wenrou and cursed.

Wenrou sensed something was amiss with Yan Heng, so she quickly shut up and said nothing. She placed the bag under her knees and knelt down obediently.

Yan Heng was almost laughing with anger. This little palace maid even had to find a bag to cushion her knees. Before he could say anything, he heard the little palace maid's stomach making a loud noise.

The little palace maid curled her lips and patted her belly, as if trying to make her belly behave better.

Yan Heng was completely out of temper. He felt it was ridiculous for him to argue with this little palace maid. And if he guessed correctly, this little palace maid was sent to serve him. If he killed her, he would probably starve to death in the East Palace.

So Yan Heng decided to let bygones be bygones and said, "Go to the imperial kitchen and get me some food."

When the maid heard about food, her eyes sparkled. She looked at Yan Heng and saw that he didn't seem angry anymore. She quickly got up from the ground, brushed off the dirt on her body, and said crisply, "Your Highness, where is the imperial kitchen?"

Yan Heng almost choked to death on his own saliva. He suspected that this little palace maid was sent by his sinister royal brother just to anger him to death.
