To deal with Ji Yin, who has anorexia, Tangchi always thought that knowing some home-cooked food was enough, but this time she looked at her home-cooked food and felt a little overwhelmed.

She prepared the meal in the time it took to burn an incense stick, then put it in a food box and carried it out anxiously.

When she arrived in the dining room, she found that Ji Yin was not there, but Hong Tan and others were still standing where they were.

"Sister Hongtan, where is the prince?" Tangchi asked in a low voice.

The atmosphere in the room was still very depressing.

Hongtan walked to Tangchi, shook her head and said softly: "The prince is not back."

"This..." Tangchi looked at the food box in his hand in embarrassment.

Hongtan bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, then made a decision and said to the soup pool: "The prince should be in the garden, you can go with the food box."

Tangchi knew that Ji Yin must be in a bad mood at the moment, so wasn't she asking for trouble if she went to him directly?

"This...Sister Hongtan, why don't you go and deliver it? I'm afraid I'll offend the prince."

Hongtan refuted: "The prince asked the girl to prepare it and send it over. If the slave goes, the prince might be even more unhappy."

She looked at the time again and said, "Girl, the time to burn a stick of incense is coming soon, you'd better hurry up."

She knew that Hongtan was trying to avoid trouble and didn't want to bring trouble to herself and anger Ji Yin, but Tangchi couldn't say anything. Seeing that the time for burning incense was coming, she gritted her teeth and had no choice but to pick up the food box and head towards the garden.

Go.

Ji Yin's life was very luxurious, and Prince Yin's mansion was always brightly lit at night.

In the garden, the flowers illuminated by the bright lights are more delicate, like jade.

But Tangchi had no intention of admiring it. She carried the food box and looked for Ji Yin's figure, calculating in her mind how long it would take before the time to burn a stick of incense would arrive.

Finally, Tangchi found Ji Yin in a pavilion.

Ji Yin, who was wearing a dark red brocade robe, sat alone in the pavilion, leaving only his back in Tangchi.

Surrounded by lights, Ji Yin's back was no longer as noble, gorgeous and domineering as before, but instead revealed a sense of depression and melancholy.

Tangchi looked at it from a distance, wondering whether he should walk over.

Ji Yin didn't look back, and Tangchi kept standing for a long time. She even felt uncomfortable in her heart.

Ji Yin's emotions can easily infect people around him.

Tangchi didn't know how long he stood like that, and finally saw Ji Yin move.

She clenched the food box in her hand and walked over.

In my ears, I can hear my footsteps clearly, and my heartbeat can also be heard clearly.

As if he heard the movement, Ji Yin tilted his head slightly and asked, "Who?" His words were full of vigilance.

"Your Majesty," Tangchi said softly. She didn't even dare to raise her voice.

Ji Yin remained silent.

"Folk girl...folk girl is here to deliver food." Tangchi said, lifting the food box in his hand.

"Yeah." Ji Yin nodded.

In fact, it was long past the time to burn the incense, but he didn't care, and Tangchi wouldn't be stupid enough to say it. So, she obediently put the food box on the table, took out the dishes one by one, and placed them on the table.

On the stone table, finally, the dishes and chopsticks were placed.

Ji Yin remained silent, and Tangchi, who was placing the dishes with her head down, did not dare to look up at his expression. When the dishes were ready, she said: "Your Majesty, it's ready."

"Go down." Ji Yin said.

"Yes." Tangchi nodded, lowered his head and exited the pavilion.

As soon as she walked out of the pavilion, she heard the crisp sound of clinking bowls and chopsticks.

Tangchi's first reaction was that Uncle Ji Yin was in a bad mood and was about to throw something, so she went around behind a rockery on the left side of the pavilion and watched secretly.

But they saw Ji Yin holding the chopsticks for a moment, then picked up a bite of food and ate it.

Then I just kept eating.

This is the first time Tangchi has seen Ji Yin eat so much.

Under the illumination of the candlelight, his fingers were long and slender, and his movements were elegant and noble, but also a bit reluctant.

Tangchi became even more curious now. Isn't Ji Yin's anorexia real?

However, as he continued to read, General Tangchi discovered that Ji Yin was forcing himself to eat.

Eating is obviously a normal and even enjoyable thing, but Ji Yin ate so reluctantly, which made Tang Chi feel sour.

However, she was even more certain that Ji Yin's anorexia was related to the late Empress Xiao.

He has a status that everyone envies and the emperor's favor, but he also has a knot in his heart that he cannot untie.

Tangchi didn't look any further. She left silently. She believed that tomorrow, what she would see would still be the arrogant and domineering Ji Yin who went his own way.

That night, Tangchi didn't sleep very well.

Early the next morning, Tangchi went to deliver breakfast to Ji Yin, and saw Ji Yin frowning, squinting, leaning back lazily, seemingly not waking up.

He didn't take a bite of the breakfast, and he took the soup without any force.

In the afternoon, she wrote a letter to Li Yuanwai. The letter probably said that the business of Zhenxilou's Beijing branch had stabilized. And she was in Prince Yin's Mansion and finally got the prince's approval, so she wanted to go back and have a look.

Tangchi is now a member of Prince Yin's palace. Logically speaking, Li Yuanwai should be a little wary when he sees her. Tangchi doesn't have to tell him in advance when he comes back, but Tangchi did tell him in advance, showing his respect for Li Yuanwai.

Recently, Xiao Qiang didn't know what she was busy with. Tangchi waited for several days but didn't wait for Xiao Qiang to come to Yinwang Mansion.

Tang Chi had no choice but to go to Xiao Mansion to find her with the opera.

"Why did you come to me again?"

At this time, Xiao Qiang and Tang Chi were in the courtyard of Xiao Mansion, and Xiao Qiang was waving his little leather whip around at the flowers and plants with great interest.

Xi Wen had already moved away from Xiao Qiang, standing far away chatting with the maid.

Tang Chi looked at the small leather whip in Xiao Qiang's hand, his eyelids twitching.

"Cousin, is this the case? It happened last time..."

"Didn't I tell you to ask your cousin?" As she spoke, she waved the small whip in her hand, and with a "pop" sound, many leaves fell.

Tang Chi swallowed his saliva and said: "Cousin, the prince asked me to ask you, saying that cousin will make the decision on this matter."

"By me?"

Tangchi nodded. "So, I would like to ask my cousin to fulfill my wish and let the daughter of the common people return to her hometown."

"When you leave, what will cousin eat?" Xiao Qiang said holding a small leather whip.

Tangchi replied: "Cousin, have you forgotten that there are many chefs in the palace, all of whom are also royal chefs?"

"Yes..." Xiao Qiang nodded.

Then the maid brought an apple.

Xiao Qiang held the apple and looked at it.

"Besides, it won't take long for the civilian girl to go back. She will definitely come back before the end of the year." Tangchi continued, thinking it was interesting.

Xiao Qiang looked at the apple in her hand, nodded, and then handed the apple to Tangchi.

Tangchi shook his hand and said, "Thank you, cousin, I won't eat." She had no intention of eating now.

Xiao Qiang glanced at her and said, "Who said it was for you to eat?"

"Um?"
