The concubine pretends to be obedient, the sinister prince's favorite

Seeing the girl staring at him with resentful eyes, the Third Prince felt a little embarrassed, which was unusual for him.

But he still didn't let go. The soft touch in her arms filled his empty heart.

How did the little guy grow up? He felt so fragrant and soft when held in my arms, even softer than the fur of the short-legged golden cat that Mu Yanan brought back from the West.

"You said this crabapple flower has other uses, how come this king doesn't know it?"

Li Jinyuan changed the subject, and Jiang Li was indeed attracted to it.

Since entering this body, her memories have been filled with a lot of knowledge she didn't know, much of it related to medicine...

When the original owner was twelve years old, she suffered from pneumonia due to a high fever. Shen Ping was afraid that she would be infected, so she found an excuse to send her to the countryside.

They said they wanted her to find a place with fresh air to recuperate, but in fact they just wanted her to die outside.

However, her plan went wrong because an old man who lived in seclusion there happened to save her.

Later, I learned that this person was the miracle doctor from the neighboring country Dongli, who had fled here to avoid being hunted by their royal family.

The lucky original owner was not only cured by him, but also inherited a lot of his medical skills. It can be said that there is a gain in misfortune.

Jiang Li suppressed the cruelty in her eyes. She would definitely punish Shen Ping, the vicious woman.

"This crabapple flower has medicinal properties, clearing away heat and detoxifying, cooling blood and relieving pain, and dispersing blood stasis and swelling. The fruit, after being steamed, can be made into candied fruit. Its kernels are high in oil and can also be used to make soap, a substance used for cleansing the body."

While Jiang Li was talking, the gaze of the man behind her became increasingly serious.

Rumor has it that Jiang Li couldn't even pass her classes at school, so how could she be proficient in all this pharmacology knowledge...

"Wow, you're so amazing! You even know pharmacology?"

"Of course... I don't understand."

The girl was so proud that she almost got her tail up after hearing the compliment, but when she glanced sideways at Li Jinyuan, she keenly caught a hint of temptation in his eyes.

Shocked, she immediately changed her tone. Before she was free, she had to protect her little vest... What if they found out her soul wasn't her original one? They would probably think she was a monster and kill her...

"I just happen to know a little bit about the uses of crabapple flowers, I don't know anything else..."

Li Jinyuan cast a half-believing and half-doubting gaze at the girl's face. Jiang Li pretended to be calm, but only she knew how panicked she was at the moment. After all, the oppressive feeling of this man's gaze was too strong.

"Li'er? What are you doing?"

After teasing the koi, Jiang Lanchuan waved his hands and walked over. Looking at the two people whispering very close to each other, the man approached with some curiosity.

Jiang Li suddenly pushed Li Jinyuan away in panic like a cat whose tail was stepped on. The force was so great that the man couldn't help but take two steps back.

"Nothing...it's getting late, let's go to the front hall!"

"okay."

Jiang Lanchuan followed the girl's steps closely, while Li Jinyuan sighed with some regret. He thought that he should find more time for the two of them to be alone next time...

……

The large front hall specially used for receiving guests was neatly arranged with two rows of desks and soft cushions, and the guests took their seats in order.

The moment Jiang Li walked in, everyone's eyes fell on her.

"This is the Third Princess. How come she looks even more beautiful after not seeing her for so long?"

"That's right! Look at those big eyes, those little mouth... She's just like her mother, she has the demeanor of the most beautiful woman in the capital back then..."

The moment Song Zhihua saw Jiang Li's face clearly, his expression froze for a moment, and then his eyes were filled with sorrow...

Looks like, so much like...

Just like the way Wanshu walked towards her twenty years ago...

Ever since Wanshu's death, she had been in a state of depression for too long. Furthermore, Jiang Pingsheng married Shen Ping not long afterward, so she never set foot in the Jiang residence again, nor did she see Wanshu's children again...

Now that I see it, Wanshu's daughter really looks like her...

Li Jinyuan pulled the girl to sit on the right side of Jiang Pingsheng. After sitting down, the man carefully helped her tidy up her skirt.

Jiang Leyao and Jiang Lanchuan sat opposite them. The girl looked at their loving appearance and felt jealous.

Jiang Lanchuan understood his half-sister. She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth, but Shen Ping had made her so willful and unlikable.

"What are you thinking? I'm warning you. Lili has finally come home. If you still have bad intentions, I won't show any mercy."

The man's voice sounded casual, yet it carried a suppressive intimidating force.

Jiang Leyao felt even more jealous, and she felt as if her heart was soaked in a jar of sauerkraut.

"I didn't do anything! Brother, you are too partial!"

"Hmph, you better be."

Jiang Lanchuan didn't care about the girl's complaints at all. He only had one sister, so how could he be partial to her?

Jiang Leyao saw that his punch had hit cotton, and suddenly felt annoyed and powerless.

They are siblings, so they teamed up to bully her!

When their father passes away one day and their mother takes over the family, she will make sure that they and their brother look good!

……

On this side, Jiang Li had just put the grapes that Li Jinyuan peeled for her into her mouth when she caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of her eye.

The girl turned around in surprise and found that the man on her right was looking at her with a smile.

Seeing Jiang Li looking over, he even waved at her.

"Long time no see, Third Princess."

"It's you!?"

The kindhearted person who picked her up at the restaurant? !

"It is I who am. I wonder if the princess's feet are okay?"

Chu Changxun curved his lips into a smile, as gentle as the breeze.

"It's okay, just a twist."

Jiang Li shook her head, her dark pupils filled with smiles. She had never expected the world to be so small.

At this moment, Li Jinyuan watched the two people's familiar communication, his deep eyes became sticky, his thin lips were slightly pursed, and a feeling of irritation suddenly rose in his heart.

"Your eyes are almost growing on him."

The gritting male voice passed through the back of Jiang Li's neck and reached her ears. His voice was very soft, so only the girl could hear the jealous words.

"Ok?"

Ignoring Jiang Li's round almond-shaped eyes full of doubt, Li Jinyuan pinched her chin and turned her face away again.

"I didn't expect that Prince Chu and my princess are so familiar with each other. He is really good at socializing."

Chu Changxun was originally an unpopular prince of the Dongli Kingdom, but was sent to Beichen to become the Crown Prince. To put it nicely, he was an envoy of friendly relations between the two countries, but to put it bluntly, he was essentially a captive used by Beichen to contain Dongli.
