I just want to live a good life

Chapter 386 I feel upset when I see carrots

Although the misunderstanding between Ye Yin and Xia Changze was resolved, Xia Changze's injuries were real. He didn't dare to return to the general's mansion in this condition, so he temporarily stayed in the prince's villa to recuperate.

Su Nuan wanted to bring Xia Changze and Liao Xinyi together, so she naturally kept Liao Xinyi in the villa on the pretext of helping with medical treatment.

Seeing this arrangement, Mu Yunting was ready to stay in the villa, but Su Nuan did not stay. She wanted to return to the Prince's Mansion.

Not only did she leave, she also took all the outsiders with her.

However, it is not good for a man and a woman to be alone together. After much thought, she left Liefeng and Lieying in the villa to keep them company. In fact, it also serves as a protection. Of course, without these two people by her side, there will be one less spies for the prince, so she doesn't have to worry so much when doing things.

Three birds with one stone.

Before leaving, Su Nuan met Ye Yin alone and asked him to check the whereabouts of Prince Yongping nine years ago, mainly to see if he had been to Jiangnan.

Ye Yin only asked two questions.

First, why did they let him do it? Second, why did they investigate Prince Yongping?

Su Nuan only answered one question: You are the most suitable person among those I trust to investigate this matter.

She also added a request, which was that this matter must not be known to a third person.

It’s not that she intentionally hid it from Mu Yunting, but she was afraid that if Mu Yunting asked, she would not be able to answer. After all, it was a crime related to treason, and she didn’t have any convincing evidence in her hands.

Ye Yin readily agreed to her request, but also made a request to her, which was that he hoped she would let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know no matter what happened.

Ye Yin has always been thinking about the fact that Concubine Xia is pregnant. If it is true, this is the Crown Prince's first child. I wonder how happy the Crown Prince will be.

After making a fuss in the villa for the whole afternoon, it was already evening when Su Nuan and Mu Yunting returned to the Prince's Mansion.

As soon as Mu Yunting followed Su Nuan back to Duiyueju, the kitchen delivered today's dinner.

Four dishes and one soup, simple.

But looking at the food on the table, Mu Yunting felt disgusted.

The four dishes are stewed meat with radish, radish meatballs, cabbage and tofu, plus a plate of cold radish skin.

Ever since he was confined to his room by the emperor, he has felt annoyed whenever he saw radishes.

"Does Kang Dahong want to quit his job? What kind of dishes do you cook?"

"Don't be angry, Your Highness. He made this for me. I guess the dishes made for Your Highness must be different from these."

Mu Yunting frowned, "Do you mean Kang Dahong is targeting you?"

Su Nuan replied: "It's hard to say whether it's directed at me or not. Your Highness might as well have someone check out what dishes the kitchen has delivered to the main courtyards tonight before making a conclusion."

Mu Yunting sent several servants to inquire, and Su Nuan specifically instructed them to go and inquire from Miss Xun as well.

After a while, the servants got the news. The dinner sent to each courtyard consisted of four dishes and one soup, but the dishes were different, with both meat and vegetables, and the combination was appropriate. The only difference was that other people's places did not have radishes and cabbages.

Coincidentally, just as the servant had found out the news, the kitchen delivered another meal. This should be the portion for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Although it also had four dishes, it looked exquisite and delicious.

Kang Dahong has confirmed the facts against Concubine Xia.

"Someone, call Kang Dahong to me."

"Your Highness, didn't you give me the power to manage the family? I want to handle this matter myself. Please agree."

"Okay." Mu Yunting thought for a moment and added, "From today on, I will eat every meal with you."

Is this a different way of protecting herself? Su Nuan thought.

"Your Highness may eat with me at every meal, but could you please come quietly?"

"why?"

Mu Yunting was puzzled.

Su Nuan smiled and replied, "It's nothing, Your Highness, don't ask, let's eat."

In fact, Su Nuan was quite curious about how Kang Dahong had the courage to do this, since she had clearly told him that she could replace him at will during his tenure as the head of the family.

Mu Yunting felt uncomfortable looking at the pile of radishes and only started eating after he had them removed.

"By the way, don't you have a lady cooking in your small kitchen? Why do you use Kang Dahong to deliver food here?"

"I sent Madam Wang out. Everyone is eating in the kitchen. It's not appropriate for me to cook for myself."

"There's nothing inappropriate. The food made by Madam Wang suits your taste. Find her back tomorrow."

Su Nuan looked at Mu Yunting and thought for a moment, then said, "Your Highness, I don't want to be special and become the target of public criticism."

Mu Yunting was slightly startled, then asked: "If you become the target of public criticism because of me, would you be willing?"

Su Nuanxin asked, "Is this something I am willing to do? Whether I am willing or not, I will be hurt badly."

But that's not the case.

"If Your Highness truly loves me, what does it matter if I become the target of public criticism for you?"

Mu Yunting was moved. He put his hand on Su Nuan's hand and said softly, "As long as I am here, no one will bully you again."

Humph, just forget about the bullying you did before? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really good at being a man. He easily brushed aside the evil things that Bai Yueguang had done before with just one sentence.

"With your words, I am content."

Su Nuan didn't take Mu Yunting's words to heart and felt satisfied with the dinner.

After dinner, Mu Yunting refused to leave Duiyueju and his eyes became more and more fiery. Su Nuan understood the meaning of his eyes and was determined not to keep Mu Yunting.

On the pretext that he had not recovered from the cold, Mu Yunting was forcibly pushed out of Duiyueju.

"My Lady, now that you have recovered from your illness, why don't you let Your Highness stay at Duiyueju?"

Chunliu said with some anger.

Su Nuan replied calmly: "Do you understand? Colds are most easily transmitted to others when they are just right, so you should stay away from me."

"Is that so? I haven't heard Doctor Yao mention it!"

Chunliu asked in confusion.

"Didn't you hear me, Imperial Doctor Yao, tell me to take good care of you?"

"But is this what you meant?"

Su Nuan gave Chun Liu an affirmative look and nodded heavily.

"I don't need anyone to serve me, you should all go back and rest early!"

After dealing with Chunliu, Su Nuan turned to Baozhu and Meixiang and said.

Baozhu was a little disappointed. Meixiang gently poked her sleeve. Baozhu wanted to say something, but in the end she just shook her head at Meixiang.

Su Nuan saw the little actions of the two people. This Baozhu had a gourd-shaped mouth and could hold back any words. Today, she suddenly wanted to speak, and Su Nuan was very curious about what she was going to say.

"Baozhu, is there something wrong with you?"

Baozhu nodded.

"You want to tell me?"

Baozhu continued to nod.

"Then you should tell me!"

Baozhu smiled innocently and said, "It's nothing, actually. The plum blossoms I raised are in bloom, so I picked a few branches for you. I wonder if you will like them."

After saying that, he pointed to the vase on the windowsill.

Su Nuan looked in the direction where her finger pointed and saw a few red plum blossoms in a white porcelain vase, which was very beautiful.

She suddenly thought of a poem: The moon in front of the window is just like any other, but it becomes different with the presence of plum blossoms.

It really fits the scene.

“Have the plum blossoms in the garden bloomed?”

Su Nuan asked in surprise.

"Not yet. These are new varieties that I am trying to grow in the greenhouse. The plum blossoms in the garden won't bloom until the Chinese New Year."

When Baozhu replied, Su Nuan had already walked to the window.

The faint fragrance lingers at the tip of your nose, very pleasant.
