Chapter 28

"Really?" Jiang Shishi pretended to be puzzled, "But the concubine clearly smelled a stench at that time, could it be that the concubine's sense of smell is more sensitive?"

Seeing the puzzled look on the woman's face, Pei Xuanling even curled his lips and wrinkled his nose in disgust when he mentioned the stench.

The woman in front of her said that the plate of pan-fried whitebait had a fishy smell.

But the chef said that the plate of whitebait was fragrant.

So, who is lying?

One was an innocent man who was drugged for him by mistakenly eating dishes.

One is the woman who made a wrong attack and saved him from a disaster.

No matter which side is lying, there must be their reasons.

Compared with their credit, this little lie is nothing, so there is no need to investigate further.

The most urgent task is to find the person who planned all this!
This person created these conspiracies in order to provoke the relationship between him and the sixth brother.

Furthermore, he wanted to make jokes in front of the envoys, causing his reputation to be damaged in Dongliang and even abroad.

In this way, his right to be in charge of the Ministry of Rites is naturally suspended.

It can be said to kill three birds with one stone!
Pei Xuanling was busy entertaining the envoys from Southern Xinjiang during the day, and busy with these messy things at night, so he was a little tired now.

The man leaned on the table with one hand, rubbed the center of his brows with his fingertips, and said in a lazy voice, "You have made meritorious service in serving the palace this time, so just tell me what reward you want, and I will make it up for you when you return to the East Palace."

"The concubine's body is just being crooked, and I never thought about rewards at all." Jiang Shishi said without desire, "So, I don't want any rewards for my body, I just want your highness to be safe, healthy, and happy, which is better than any rewards. "

This is not a formality, but her sincere words.

She tried her best to help the prince avoid the plot, just to avoid being buried, and never thought of any rewards.

Moreover, in addition to health and happiness, everything else is just a cloud in her eyes.

As for money, as long as it is enough, she can also earn it by herself.

The woman's voice revealed the laziness of just waking up from illness, and gently hit Pei Xuanling's heart.

In the past, he rewarded the concubines of the Eastern Palace with nothing more than silk and satin, rouge and gouache, gold and silver jewelry and other items.

But the woman in front of her is different, this kind of difference is something she never had before.

The former Jiang Meiren was no different from those concubines in the Eastern Palace.

Now she has no desires or desires, and she lives extremely happily in the East Palace.

For such a woman, he didn't know what she wanted, so he asked her specifically, but she didn't want anything.

He grew up under the rules of the palace, and everyone around him said, you are a prince, you must be both civil and military, you must behave well, you must take the country and the people as your primary responsibility, and you must guard the position of heir.
But no one ever told him, as long as you are safe, healthy and happy.

Such words, if said from other women's mouths, might be hypocritical politeness.

But what she said was so sincere that it hit people's hearts.

"No, no, think about it carefully." The man showed a tired look on his face, but his tone revealed undeniable determination.

This makes Jiang Shishi difficult.

She is not interested in costumes and jewelry, but she can make rouge and gouache by herself.

Whether in later generations or in ancient times, only enjoying delicious food can bring her a lot of happiness.

Thinking of this, Jiang Shishi had an idea, "Your Highness, I saw the guards catch a lot of fish yesterday. I heard that some of the fish have already been served on the table, and some of them are kept in the back kitchen."

"It happens that there is an artificial lake in the East Palace, and that lake is next to the Shiyue Pavilion, so I want to ask. Can I bring those fish back to the East Palace to raise them?"
