Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 159: Bewitched

As the days passed, the opportunity that the oiran of Yunzhou City had been waiting for finally came.

On this day, Murong Chen did not go to the camp, but was busy in the general's mansion.

Not only did he go to the dining room to check the cooking of the meals, but he also called the prefect of the border town to help taste the food.

Because the governor of the border town had helped King Chen, the whole family was able to survive after the Yan army broke through the city.

Hearing that King Chen had summoned him, he arrived at the general's residence without any delay.

"how is the taste?"

The governor of the border town leaned over and saluted: "Your Highness, this is a delicious dish."

Murong Chen also took a taste, but felt that it was almost the same as the original chef's.

No matter how good it is, it just tastes like a vegetable, how can it be so clever?

He couldn't eat it, so he had to ask again: "How does it compare to your Chu Kingdom's royal banquet?"

"This……"

The prefect was a little embarrassed.

"I have only had one palace banquet in my lifetime, and I can't remember it clearly. However, the chef I sent to your house was a top chef from the largest restaurant in the border town. When His Highness the Crown Prince was here, he often brought Princess Yingxue with him. Patronize.”

The prefect of the border town was also a human being, and he had long heard that King Chen was rushing to attack Chu State because of Princess Yingxue.

He also thought that it was because the princess and her men chased and beat him fiercely, and he wanted to take revenge.

But when I looked at it later, it was obvious that there was no revenge. I was obsessed with him and wanted to snatch him into the house.

So he also knew that on the surface King Chen wanted to ask about the royal banquet, but in fact didn't he just want to ask if he could please the princess?
Sure enough, this answer satisfied Murong Chen more than the standard answer.

He greatly appreciated the cook, arranged a room in the house, and allowed his family to reunite.

He also happily saw off the prefect, and asked Feishi to tell the Yan soldiers not to harass the prefect's residence.

After that, he went to personally inspect the fine wine and flowers that had been sent from Yunzhou City more than ten days ago.

In addition to the Yunchun wine that he likes to drink, he also specially ordered some sweet fruit wine that his daughter’s family likes to drink.The flowers were precious varieties requested directly from the emperor's sister-in-law, and they were fragrant.

In addition, he also ordered someone to pick a rare piece of jade and polish it into the shape of a safety buckle.

Then, while Princess Yingxue was taking a bath, she asked people to quietly arrange the room properly and put out wine and food.

Xiang Yingxue didn't know the arrangement of all this. She thought that King Chen would go out early and come back late as usual.

So before sunset, when Murong Chen was definitely not in the house, he asked the old woman to take him to take a bath in the bath for a while.

Relax your body and get some air.

The old woman who was guarding her had already figured out the position of this woman in His Highness's heart through several incidents and did not dare to neglect her.

As long as it's not excessive, she can do anything.

And Murong Chen has never done anything excessive these days. The most intimate thing he did was just feed her some food.

She no longer had the sleepless nights she had when she was first captured, and could only concentrate on waiting for her father to send someone to rescue her.

Xiang Yingxue came out of the pool with floating flowers, lazily put on a layer of gauze over her underwear, and simply put a white silk robe on top, tightened the belt of the robe and returned to the room.

Zhou Jing originally chose the West Courtyard for her to live in because he knew she liked bathing.

The bathroom is in the west courtyard, only a dozen steps away from the main house where she lives.

When she was in the border town, she found it troublesome to put it on and take off.

Often a small coat, a piece of gauze, and an airtight robe that can wrap the whole person go to the bathroom.

When I come back, I take off my outer robe and go to sleep.

At this time, Murong Chen was in the camp. Except for the old woman and the oiran from Yunzhou City who had received the order from King Chen, no one dared to enter the courtyard.

In recent days, she had also discovered some of King Chen's little habits. For example, no matter morning or evening, as long as the lights were turned off in her room, he would not come in again.

So today, she was dressed just to turn off the lights and go to bed.
