Teaming up with her mother to take revenge on the scumbags! The Crown Princess becomes the darling o
Chapter 53 I don't eat sweets, or I'll get a rash.
He Lingyi couldn't guess, so she looked at Shen Song'an and asked him a question.
"Your Highness, please speak frankly. What is the purpose of your actions today?"
"Miss He is already exceptionally intelligent to be able to guess that the person behind this is Changning. In recent years, Changning has caused a lot of trouble by relying on the power of the Prince Jin's Mansion. Haijin was innocent and ran into her trap, so she still can't get out of the shadow. It's not her place to point fingers at my people. So today is just an appetizer. I will also let her taste what it means to be scorned by the world!"
Upon hearing this, Haiyu slammed his fist against the wall.
The Crown Prince's words struck a chord with him. Three years had passed since his elder brother was humiliated. The Marquis of Haibo's mansion had investigated the person behind it all, but they were always a step too late and the clues were destroyed. Therefore, they still did not know who had framed him.
But the Prince Jin's family's opportunistic behavior was obvious, so Haiyu was the first to agree with the Crown Prince's plan to take action against them!
"Your Highness, if there is anything I can do to help you with this, please let me know. We will make the Prince Jin's Mansion repay the humiliation that Brother Hai suffered tenfold or a hundredfold!"
Qiao Er was also a person who hated evil, so he immediately expressed his loyalty to the Crown Prince.
Hai Yu didn't need to say anything; he could tell from her expression how much she hated him. As for Chi Guiwan standing next to her, she was also filled with guilt and resentment, and she spoke up immediately.
"I'm a fool. I harmed my cousin back then. Now that Your Highness wants to stand up for my cousin, you must count me in. Even if it means taking Princess Changning with me to jump into the river, I won't blink an eye!"
Throw yourself into the river?
When Chi Guiwan said this, Qiao Er was still slightly taken aback.
Well, his future wife's temperament... really suits his taste. Life should be lived passionately, so hating evil and repaying kindness with kindness are his principles of life.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have said she wanted to go to the Chi family to break off the engagement.
Hearing Chi Guiwan's statement today, he suddenly realized that his sister-in-law had good judgment and corrected his foolish idea in time. Otherwise, he would have missed out on such a perfect wife, and he would have regretted it later.
He Lingyi saw the appreciation and approval in General Qiao's eyes for her mother, which was exactly what she wanted to see!
Therefore, I feel that today's trip was worthwhile.
When Shen Song'an heard Chi Guiwan's words, a smile appeared in his eyes. He then said, "I wouldn't do that, but I do need Miss Chi's help. Later, just ask her to buy more mooncakes from Huaiyang Bakery in the name of the Vice Minister's residence."
"So simple?"
"Ah."
Although Chi Guiwan did not understand what the Crown Prince was going to do, since he was so confident, she would just follow his orders. So she called out to the maid Qianchun outside.
"Qianchun, go and order five hundred boxes of mooncakes from Huaiyang Bakery for me. Tell them that my second sister's wedding is imminent, and we will need to give her a gift. Have them prepare them in advance and send them to the Vice Minister's residence as soon as possible!"
"Yes, girl."
As long as the girl made the decision with Miss He, Qianchun would never question it.
The order for 500 mooncakes stole the spotlight from everyone else. Since it was placed by the young lady of the Vice Minister's mansion, some families who were still hesitant followed suit, and the Huaiyang Cake Shop was bustling with noise for a while.
The shopkeeper's face lit up with joy, and he immediately said so.
"Don't worry, Miss. Everything is prepared and will be delivered to the Vice Minister's residence first thing tomorrow morning. It will not delay Miss Chi's marriage!"
Not many people knew that the second daughter of the Chi family was getting married.
However, the shopkeeper's offhand remark caught the attention of the maid, Qianchun, who remembered it. She smiled and paid the deposit. Soon after, she encountered Fudong, who was returning from shopping. Her cheeks were bulging, clearly indicating that she had come back from eating. Upon seeing Qianchun, she immediately went up to her and said...
"What are you doing here, Sister Qianchun?"
"The young lady asked me to order some mooncakes to be sent back to the Vice Minister's residence as a wedding gift for the second young lady."
Hearing this, Fu Dong was displeased. She pouted and said with a hint of annoyance, "Why are you trying to curry favor with the Second Miss? I still remember the three thousand taels of silver and ten bolts of fabric I sent out last time. Madam Guo was very unhappy about it!"
"Alright, if you're still unhappy, you're in bed now. You should talk less and eat more."
Upon hearing this, Fu Dong's squirrel-like cheeks deflated, and she quickly swallowed what was in her mouth. After tidying herself up, she followed Qian Chun to the fifth floor.
The competition for the title of "King of Cakes" continues, with the other seven companies not to be outdone, all using their best skills. However, with such a masterpiece already established, their competition has become less exciting.
Inside the private room, the five of them were eating the pastries that Fu Dong had bought.
Most of the coconut milk cake and milk skin pastry ended up in the mouths of Chi Guiwan and He Lingyi. Qiao Er tried a couple of bites, but since he didn't like sweets, he put them down.
As for Crown Prince Shen Song'an and Second Prince Hai Yu, they didn't touch it at all. Perhaps they didn't like it, or perhaps they couldn't eat it. He Lingyi glanced at them but didn't say anything else.
Suddenly, Shen Song'an spoke up to explain.
"I don't eat sweets, they give me rashes."
"Red rash? Is it because you have some kind of aversion to sweet things?" He Lingyi suddenly remembered a dessert from Nanzhou and then said.
"I see. However, there is a snack in Nanzhou called 'Pa Zi Gao' (耙子糕), which does not contain any sugar. Your Highness may wish to try it."
"Is that so? I have heard of it."
No sooner had the Crown Prince finished speaking than Haiyu chimed in from the side.
"I've heard that Miss He has excellent cooking skills. Would you like to make some for us to try?"
Just as He Lingyi was about to refuse, her mother chimed in while eating, "Second cousin is quite the clever one. Lingyi's cooking skills are never revealed, but everyone who has tried them says they're delicious!"
"You have eaten?"
"I've tried many kinds of food, not just rice cakes, and they're much better than what's made in the manor or what you buy outside."
These words put He Lingyi in a difficult position.
When she lived in Sijin Courtyard before, she showed off a few skills based on her memory. It has to be said that this Miss He is really capable. There is nothing she can't do, and she does them all very well.
Therefore, He Lingyi tried to cook a few delicious dishes for his mother, which won her heart. However, he did not expect that his itch to cook would cause trouble today. Since things had been said to this extent, if he did not cook, wouldn't that be disrespectful to His Highness the Crown Prince?
I can only reply sincerely.
"Puffed rice cakes are not difficult to make. I will send some over another day. Your Highness, please try them and see if you like them?"
"Ah."
Shen Song'an never eats any pastries, but today he surprisingly nodded in agreement.
The second young master, Haiyu, and Qiao Er exchanged a glance, both sensing something amiss. However, upon remembering their family's instructions, they decided to help each other out.
