The fat wife is rebellious: she was spoiled by the group on the way to escape famine

This reaction made Jiang Jinhe even more certain that the people he met that day were undoubtedly these people.

Soon the tea was served, and King Chen continued, "Bring up the snacks we prepared."

Then he smiled at Jiang Jinhe.

"I see that Miss Song seems to be quite knowledgeable about food. She has specially asked the chef in the mansion to imitate some of the pastries that the concubines in the palace like to eat. Please be sure to try them."

After saying this, King Chen turned his gaze to Song Wenqin, with a gentle smile on his face.

It's always nice to have something to eat, especially in this slightly depressing atmosphere.

Sitting there does make people feel very uncomfortable.

So Jiang Jinhe nodded slightly to express his gratitude.

However, the next moment, she heard King Chen ask Song Wenqin an unexpected question.

"Brother Song looks so heroic and imposing, he's sure to be someone who will achieve great things in the future. I wonder if you'd be interested in joining our army and taking on a position?"

Hearing this, Jiang Jinhe choked on the fruit in his hand just as it reached his mouth, and he couldn't help but cough violently.

"Cough... cough..." At that moment, she thought that if Murong Xi knew that Song Wenqin in front of her was also of royal blood, would she still make such an invitation so easily?

Seeing this, Song Wenqin beside her patted her back and asked anxiously, "Why did you choke suddenly?"

"I'm... fine."

Jiang Jinhe squeezed out these few words, indicating that the other party didn't need to worry too much.

Jiang Jinhe coughed lightly a few times and looked in the direction of Murong Xi, only to see that he was looking at them in surprise.

She felt a little uneasy, afraid that Song Wenqin had angered her by not responding immediately, so she quickly explained, "Your Highness Prince Chen, my husband has always loved me very much. Please don't take this to heart."

After hearing this, Murong Xi smiled and responded, "My dear lady, you are truly overly worried. In fact, I have always envied couples like you who have such a deep love. It's a pity that I haven't met my destined partner yet."

In such a scenario, people would usually choose to share the little things in their married life with each other.

However, Murong Xi is not an ordinary person after all. He is the prominent King Chen of Daliang Kingdom. How could he be the kind of person who would easily discuss private matters with outsiders?

After realizing this, Jiang Jinhe quickly changed the subject and said, "Actually, we're just an ordinary couple. A high-ranking figure like you must have countless important government affairs to deal with every day, so naturally you wouldn't care too much about these trivial matters."

Seeing Jiang Jinhe being so humble, Murong Xi showed a warm and kind smile in his eyes.

"In my opinion, you and your husband are not ordinary people."

Seeing this, Jiang Jinhe hurriedly waved his arms to deny it, and replied a little embarrassedly: "Oh no, no, Your Highness really praises us too much."

After chatting for a while, I found that the content of the conversation always seemed to revolve around some family topics.

In fact, Jiang Jinhe seemed a little anxious at this time - because she wanted to know more about the other party's real purpose of coming this time.

"Your Highness, the message that came to us earlier through Chen Zhong mentioned that you wished to meet me and my husband. I wonder if this has anything to do with Yue Man Lou's future plans?"

Once such a direct question was asked, Murong Xi, who was originally smiling, couldn't help but restrain his smile a little, but he still expressed his thoughts gently.

"Your store has already achieved the remarkable feat of selling membership cards worth four million taels of silver on its first day of opening. This is an unprecedented feat in the entire Daliang Nation and truly astonishing and admirable. Of course, this isn't the reason I came here today."

After listening to what the other party said, Jiang Jinhe showed some confusion on his face.

In fact, she had already fulfilled the agreement between her and King Chen ahead of schedule. The goal that was supposed to take a year to achieve was exceeded on the same day.

This incident not only surprised herself, but also made King Chen look at her with admiration.

Logically speaking, there is no other dispute between the two.

Apart from the matter of Yue Manlou, she couldn't think of anything else she needed to discuss with King Chen.

"Oh? I wonder what your highness is referring to?"

Murong Xi showed a meaningful smile, his eyes flashing with a hint of curiosity.

He turned his head and glanced at Song Wenqin, his eyes filled with expectation and inquiry.

"I heard that Yuannian recognized Miss Song as his sister. Is that true?"

This sentence sounds casual, but it actually reveals a lot of information.

He was obviously very concerned about this matter.

"That's indeed what happened."

Jiang Jinhe nodded, his tone calm but certain.

This was agreed upon when we first came here.

The so-called father was extremely cruel. Not only did he make her lose her memory and abandon her to others, but even the fate of her brothers was not much better. They were thrown out to survive since childhood.

People are only sent every year to see if they are still alive.

In this situation, of course they should keep a low profile as much as possible.

She once asked Jiang Yuannian whether his father would acknowledge their identities.

Jiang Yuannian's answer was heartbreaking: he would only consider it after the old emperor died, the new emperor ascended the throne, and no longer pursued their mother's identity.

This uncertain attitude made her feel powerless, but it also made her cherish everything around her even more.

"He and I both have the surname Jiang, and we have a very good relationship, so we became brother and sister."

Murong Xi smiled and said, with a hint of relief and warmth in her eyes.

"Yuannian has found a good sister."

He sighed, as if he was genuinely happy for Jiang Yuannian.

As he spoke, he pointed to a snack on the table and said, "This is Yu Lu Song. It is made with the best glutinous rice and has undergone many fine processes. It tastes excellent. Miss Song, you can try it. You will definitely be full of praise."

In fact, Yu Lu Song is made of glutinous rice, but the workmanship is much more complicated than ordinary glutinous rice foods, so it is better in both appearance and taste.

Seeing that Murong Xi never said what she really wanted to express, Jiang Jinhe gradually felt uneasy.

This feeling made her think that King Chen came to see her today not just to chat or drink tea, but must have some unknown plan.

And judging from the tone of his voice, this doesn't seem to be a good thing.

So, in order to understand his purpose, she decided to ask directly, "I wonder what else Your Highness wants to say? If you have nothing else to say, we will take our leave."

She said this directly, even a little stiffly, and it was obvious that she was a little impatient with the current way of beating around the bush.
