The abandoned concubine who transmigrated woke up shouting "Long live the widow!"

Upon hearing this, Jingxue raised her eyebrows!

Damn it, are you treating me like your maid?! Do you think I need to teach me? I don't like being called that!

Try to trip me up, I'll make sure you pay!

"Then thank you for your kindness, Consort Li. However, after recovering from my illness, I've developed a lingering condition: sleepwalking. I often wander around at night with a kitchen knife, and people who talk to me a lot during the day are frequently injured by my slashing. Moreover, no one can interrupt me, otherwise it will cause significant damage to my body. Therefore, my maids try to speak as little as possible during the day. If I accidentally injure that old nanny, please don't blame me, Consort Li!" Jingxue finished speaking and gave Consort Li a harmless smile!

Ye Muchen, who was standing next to her, almost burst out laughing when he heard Jingxue talking nonsense with a straight face! He didn't believe that the brat would have such a problem!

Wang, the old nanny beside Consort Li, was so frightened that she almost threw the third princess out of her arms!

Why does the Princess Consort of War have this problem?!

She looked at Consort Li nervously, praying in her heart that her mistress would not agree! She hadn't lived enough yet!

Consort Li knew that Jingxue was doing it on purpose, and she was doing it on purpose too. She just wanted to arrange for someone to go to the Prince of Zhan's mansion in a legitimate way so that she could find out what was going on!

However, she wasn't about to give up, and started stirring things up: "Won't Princess Consort's actions hurt the Prince? Shouldn't the Prince and Princess Consort be talking the most every day?"

Jingxue rolled her eyes inwardly. "You're in charge of this, aren't you? Don't you understand what's going on?"

However, after Consort Li said that, some people present actually thought the same thing, such as the Empress Dowager!

"Oh? Then Xue'er, should we send a royal physician to examine you?" The Empress Dowager looked at Jingxue with concern.

Jingxue turned to look at Ye Muchen and thought to herself, "You dog of a man, shouldn't you say something?"

To everyone's surprise, Ye Muchen picked up the wine pot and poured wine without even looking at her. Ye Muchen wanted to see how she would explain herself and tell her to stop talking nonsense!

Seeing that Ye Muchen didn't intend to speak up for her, Jingxue didn't think much of it. It was normal for that scoundrel not to help her!

"Mother, don't worry! As long as I'm not too tired or stressed during the day, this won't happen. Besides, I've read quite a few medical books, so I have no problem taking pulses and prescribing medicine. I'll get better with proper care!" Jingxue comforted the Empress Dowager.

Ye Muchen: Prescribing medicine and taking pulses? That brat is really bragging too much. No wonder she's Jing Zhiyuan's daughter, she really knows how to show off!

"Oh, that's good, that's good! Consort Li meant well. Since that's the case, there's no need to send someone to teach. Look, Xue'er calls me 'Empress Dowager' now! Everything else is fine too!" The Empress Dowager saw that Ye Muchen didn't react, so he was probably out of danger!

Jingxue defused Li Fei's repeated provocations, leaving her feeling a little uneasy. But there would be plenty of time in the future, and other opportunities would come.

She doesn't want to give what she can't have to someone else!

The banquet that followed was quite harmonious. Jingxue could tell that the Emperor was very gentle and considerate towards the Empress! The two had a good relationship, but unfortunately, the issue of royal offspring was a matter of state, and the Emperor's extensive harem was also for the sake of having an heir!

Even the emperor is not free to do as he pleases!

Aside from remembering a few key characters, Jingxue didn't pay much attention to the others!

Considering the Empress's health, the Emperor left the banquet with her after a short while, and everyone else followed suit.

Jingxue barely ate any. The dishes looked pretty, but many of them were cold when they were brought from the imperial kitchen, and the taste was just average, at least in her opinion!

They followed Ye Muchen to Jingwu Palace, where he used to live.

The palace maids and eunuchs came out to pay their respects, and Ye Muchen instructed the maids to take Jingxue to a side hall to rest.

Several palace maids were puzzled as to why the prince wouldn't let the princess live in the main hall! But that wasn't something they could ask!

Jingxue doesn't care where she lives, as long as she doesn't live with that jerk!

A palace maid accompanied Jingxue into the side hall, while the others tacitly brought over the clothes and supplies that had been placed in the main hall!

After bathing, Jingxue dismissed the palace maids to rest, saying there was no need for anyone to keep watch at night!

Even after moving to a different place, Jingxue couldn't fall asleep immediately. Lying in bed, Jingxue thought, "I've been to the palace and I'm pretty familiar with the Prince's mansion. I should go out and check out the shops in my dowry!"

The original owner's mother was a woman of vision. In her dowry, there wasn't much silver or jewelry, but there were four shops and a manor. The silver was finite and would decrease as she spent it, but the shops would continue to make money!

At the end of each month, Lixia would send over the profits from the shops! These shops included rouge shops, grain shops, cloth shops, and general stores, but there were no Chinese medicine shops.

She wants to take a look when she has time. If any of these shops aren't making much money, she's thinking of opening a new pharmacy!

"Gululu..."

My stomach started growling, and before I knew it, it was already past midnight!

It's past midnight! She's hungry and can't sleep, so Jingxue has a sudden idea: she'll go check out the legendary imperial kitchen.

When she came in, Jingxue had already observed the terrain of Jingwu Palace!

She didn't touch the clothes the Empress Dowager had prepared for her; she continued wearing her own and tied her hair into a high ponytail with a ribbon!

Just in case, Jingxue stuffed the pillow into the quilt and drew the curtains!

He opened the window, used his supernatural ability to silently climb the big tree outside, and gave the tree the command to "go to the royal kitchen"!

There was a dim light inside the imperial kitchen, indicating that there must be someone on night watch. Jingxue landed outside the window, wet her fingers, tore a hole in the window paper, and peered inside with one eye!

There were many dishes on the chopping board inside the house, but I didn't see anyone keeping watch.

But what's going on with this plate of braised pork knuckle that's rising in price?

Wow! There are other people here looking for food too?

Haha, we're kindred spirits! I definitely have to check this out!

She quietly climbed onto the roof, where a person dressed in white was carefully pulling a rope up with their back to her!

The plate arrived, and the person sat up straight, revealing a head of messy white hair!

It's an old man!

"What are you looking at? Come over here if you want to eat!" The old man said without turning around.

Jingxue's eyes widened in surprise, thinking to herself, "Could they be talking about me?"

"Is there anyone else here besides you and me?" The old man couldn't wait to start eating!

Wow! Does this old man have eyes in the back of his head?

I slowly walked up to the old man, who was gnawing on a large pork knuckle!

Jingxue unconsciously swallowed.

Under the bright moonlight, Jingxue could see the old man's face clearly: his eyes were sharp and his ears had prominent lobes!

Jingxue guessed that the old man was probably the retired emperor.

But she didn't want to say it out loud, otherwise it would be too awkward!

"Senior, how did you know there were people behind you?"

The old man glared at her and said, "Aren't you breathing? Even martial artists don't know how to control their breathing. If you want to eat something, just lift it up yourself!"

"Alright!" Jingxue didn't hesitate and picked up the old man's tools, pulling up a chicken!

I tore off a chicken leg and took a bite!

When you're hungry, everything tastes delicious!
