Shocked! After rebirth, my princess wants to remarry

Gu Qinghe ordered dinner, thinking that Xiao Jingheng would be the same as before and would not have any special requests. However, the prince said he wanted to eat dumplings and specifically asked for aged vinegar to go with them.

Gu Qinghe didn’t understand it for a moment, but she didn’t need to understand. She just ate two dumplings and thought it was good.

"Yingchun, I want rice vinegar." Gu Qinghe ordered.

"Yes." Yingchun wrote down everything, quickly went to the kitchen and told the chef, but was stumped by the chef's questions.

"Miss Yingchun, we have several kinds of aged vinegar in our kitchen, three-year-old, five-year-old, and even longer-year-old. Which one would Your Highness the Crown Prince like?" The kitchen chef asked in detail, hoping to satisfy his master.

This really stumped Yingchun. She thought for a moment before saying, "Our Crown Prince has been eating what he usually eats for the past few years, so let's just follow the old rules."

Upon hearing this, the master rubbed his hands in a simple and honest manner, "Miss Yingchun, our Crown Prince usually doesn't ask for aged vinegar specifically, and he rarely eats vinegar, so I'm asking you this."

"Then let's do five years. Since you don't eat much, and the food is too sour, it will make your stomach uncomfortable. The kitchen will have to take responsibility then." Yingchun came up with a compromise.

"Okay." The chef got the answer, smiled and went to greet the people in the kitchen and assign tasks.

Back in the main courtyard, after Xiao Jingheng ordered the old vinegar, he began to feel embarrassed and wanted to find something to do to kill time.

"Crown Princess, after this incense seal is finished, please play a game of chess with me." Xiao Jingheng said.

"Okay." Gu Qinghe looked up at him.

After the patterns were completed, Wangchun brought over a basin of water and helped the Crown Princess wash her hands. Then Yingchun brought the chessboard and chess pieces.

Gu Qinghe played black and Xiao Jingheng played white, and the two began to play chess.

Han Desheng stood behind the prince and noticed that Yingchun would look at the prince guiltily from time to time today, as if she had done something to let the prince down.

However, he really couldn't remember that Yingchun had always done things properly and didn't seem like someone who would cause trouble.

Xiao Jingheng's attention was all on the chessboard and the Crown Princess's hands. The embarrassment caused by his impulsive remarks just now, which were made out of anger, had almost dissipated.

The game with Gu Qinghe was a match of equals. Xiao Jingheng watched Gu Qinghe's moves, which were very sharp and different from his style of play in his previous life, when he was more subtle.

The two chess pieces on the chessboard compete for the breath of life they need to survive. The white chess piece always follows the footsteps of the black chess piece, trying to block it.

In the end, Gu Qinghe had more white chess pieces in his hand. Xiao Jingheng smiled and said, "The Crown Princess is very skilled. I have to admit that I am inferior to her."

Gu Qinghe was also enjoying the game and said, "There's no big or small in chess, just make your moves boldly."

The same is true in life.

Xiao Jingheng also became excited. When he was about to put another plate on the table, someone from the kitchen came and said that the dumplings were ready. If there was nothing else, they should be put into the pot.

In order to ensure that the masters can eat hot dumplings, the people in the kitchen are really attentive.

The discomfort he had just put aside came back.

Gu Qinghe glanced at Xiao Jingheng, and seeing that he didn't say anything, he instructed, "Let's have dinner at the usual time and cook as usual."

The eunuch in the kitchen said something to Yingchun and ran away. Gu Qinghe and Xiao Jingheng did not play chess anymore. Instead, they asked someone to put away the chessboard and each picked up a book to read.

There is not enough time to play the next game.

In less than two cups of tea, the kitchen staff arrived with food boxes. The young eunuch in the lead came to Han Desheng and said, "Chief Steward Han, today is the first time our kitchen has received a request from the Crown Prince, so we have brought one-year-old, three-year-old, five-year-old, and eight-year-old vinegars. I promise His Royal Highness will enjoy the meal."

Han Desheng felt his teeth were about to ache just by listening. He raised his hand and knocked on the eunuch's hat, "Five years, eight years, do you think you are drinking?"

The young eunuch looked at Manager Han innocently, feeling extremely aggrieved. What was going on? Didn't they say that the truth lies in the details?

How could he be beaten even though he was so meticulous? Yingchun also praised him for his meticulousness, and he thought he could get some money as a reward.

Yingchun and Han Desheng were in charge of serving the dishes. It was Gu Qinghe's first time eating dumplings when she came to the East Palace. She tried the dumplings first out of courtesy. They were filled with diced scallops, which were very delicious. The rice vinegar also had a sweet taste, and she enjoyed the meal very much.

On the other hand, Han Desheng carefully picked up the dumplings, selected a plate of vinegar that did not look very dark in front of him, dipped it in vinegar, and placed it in front of the prince.

Xiao Jingheng ate it, frowned, and turned his face to the side, "This vinegar is well brewed."

Gu Qinghe also agreed, "Yingchun, everyone who rewards the kitchen later will get one."

"Yes." Yingchun replied.

Upon hearing this, the young eunuch who was waiting at the door to clean up the mess replaced the sadness on his face with joy, and thought to himself: After all, there will be a Crown Princess.

Han Desheng naturally heard that there was something wrong with the prince's praise just now, but was the princess deliberately speaking the opposite to the prince?

He didn't dip his food in vinegar anymore and was able to finish his dinner in peace.

After dinner and rinsing their mouths, Yingchun served tea. Xiao Jingheng and Gu Qinghe asked Han Desheng to take his men out, and then talked about the latest news in the court.

The latest incident was that Prince Jin received a letter that the Jiang father and son were going to the northwest, so he used his connections in the capital to sing a different tune at the morning court.

Gu Qinghe thought for a moment after hearing this. In his previous life, Jiang Huizhou and his son were no longer around, so naturally this didn't happen.

"Now, it's different from what we've experienced before." Gu Qinghe said, "But there's no need to be timid, because we've already won once."

Xiao Jingheng nodded after hearing this, "Yes, but the price is too high, so I thought of changing my approach. If I still wait passively and my attitude doesn't change, then what's the point of starting over?"

At this time, Gu Qinghe felt that there was some truth in this statement. It was true that a person's head is determined by his buttocks.

"Yes, the attitude has changed, the method has changed, and many things have changed." Gu Qinghe said.

After hearing what she said, Jamel Xiao looked at her steadily, and after a long time he said, "You are right."

Gu Qinghe met Xiao Jingheng's gaze, then looked away without saying a word. She knew that Xiao Jingheng's words were not only directed at the current situation, but also at the relationship between them.

Xiao Jingheng knew that he couldn't catch up too closely, so he smiled and said, "It's getting late, let's get ready to rest."

There are more ways to promote relationships than just verbal communication.
