He couldn't help but stop what he was doing and cast a doubtful look at Li Fusheng: "You told her the time and she promised to come back on time. Isn't that the end of the matter? Why are you so nervous when I mention it casually?

?

"Could it be that...she didn't respond to you at all, and all the replies were made by you just to make me happy, right?"

"Of course not!" Li Fusheng was frightened by Yan Chujing's speculation, and waved his hands to deny it, "The Queen has not promised anything, how dare you convey it casually?! The Queen indeed promised that she would come on time!

"It's not the agreed time yet, maybe...maybe..."

Li Fusheng still wanted to defend himself, but midway through his words, he suddenly realized that his master's scrutinizing eyes had already left his body, passed him, and landed behind him?

Li Fusheng turned his head suspiciously and carefully followed his master's gaze.

What caught his eye was a figure that was incompatible with the gorgeous palace - the person's silky black hair was simply pulled into a single bun, and her moon-white elegant long skirt had no decoration at all. When the person came closer, he could even see clearly the face that was not beautiful.

Shi Fendai’s beautiful bare face…

The Queen...hasn't even dressed up at all?!

The moment he saw Chi Xinian's appearance clearly, Li Fusheng wanted to die.

He had promised His Majesty that the Queen would attach great importance to his invitation, but if His Majesty saw the Queen's appearance, wouldn't his lie be exposed?

But now, he has no way to hide it.

Because Yan Chujing had already frowned the moment he saw Chi Xinian's appearance clearly.

"What is the Queen wearing?" Yan Chujing tilted his head slightly and looked at the person walking in front of him again, "Isn't it appropriate for you to walk around the palace in this image?"

"It's inappropriate. If outsiders see it, they will definitely say that I don't understand the rules." Chi Xinian nodded, fully agreeing with Yan Chujing's statement.

Yan Chujing couldn't help but frown: "Then you..."

But before he finished speaking, Chi Xinian smiled at him with crooked eyes: "But weren't you the one who invited me? You're not an outsider, so you shouldn't be angry with me because of those rules and regulations, right?"

"I..." Yan Chujing's displeased expression froze, and the reproachful words that had reached his lips were stuck in his throat because of Chi Xinian's words, making him unable to express them.

He could clearly feel that the displeasure in his heart because of her ignoring the rules disappeared in this moment.

Her words of "one of our own" actually made him feel a little happy in his heart.

"Looking at your Majesty's appearance, he must have acquiesced." Chi Xinian took half a step forward, got closer to Yan Chujing, and saw clearly the changing expressions in his eyes.

Forcing Yan Chujing to look away uncomfortably, she walked over to the grill with a smile, rolled up her sleeves and started working: "I'm not a good cook, but I'm good at grilling meat, and I think your majesty likes it, so I

Change into clothes suitable for work, and come here to grill your Majesty's meat."

Chi Xinian moved quickly, sprinkling different seasonings on the meat skewers layer by layer. Soon, the meat skewers she pressed on the iron frame began to smell delicious.

"I asked you here, not to ask you to do work." Yan Chujing finally came to his senses, followed him to Chi Xinian, frowned slightly, "You are the queen, you don't need to do the meat roasting. I have prepared it.
