Bai Peiyu talked to Li Can for a while, then took her to the front to play with Bai Peizhu.
When Li Can looked at Bai Peizhu again, it was different from before. He still felt somewhat pitiful about her.
At lunch time, she drank some soup and went back to Rongxiangyuan for a lunch break.
Although her acclimatization symptoms are much better than before, her symptoms are gone, but she still feels a little uncomfortable, and she doesn't eat as much as before.
When she woke up from her nap, she heard Tang Qiu say that Zhao Zhen was back and was making food for her in the small kitchen.
She hurriedly ordered the maids to dress.
Zhao Ye was flipping through the brochure by the stove, staring at the two stoves, and then put something into the pot.
Wuhuang lit a fire in front of the stove, and after a while he stuck his head out to take a look.
Wu Zai stood guard at the door of the kitchen, his eyes filled with distress.
Your Highness is tired from traveling and working, and it is not easy to worry about cooking for the girl when you come back.
In fact, His Highness doesn't know how to do it. How can a person who was raised in a wealthy family know these things?
You have to follow the booklet and put everything into the pot according to the time.
But His Highness is really smart. Even if he is not skilled, the girl likes to eat what he makes.
"Your Highness, the girl is here." Wu Zao greeted.
After hearing this, Zhao Zong put the pamphlet away and looked back.
"Zhao Zeyu?" Li Can poked his head in from the kitchen door to look at him.
The aroma in the kitchen was so fragrant that she couldn't help but smell it.
"You're awake." Zhao Zhen answered her calmly, holding the spatula.
"Well, you really know how to do it." Li Can walked in with a smile: "Let me take a look."
"Don't come." Zhao Zong stopped her: "The fireworks here are very smokey."
"What about you?" Li Can stopped.
"I'm fine." Zhao Zhi didn't care.
"Why don't you ask someone to do it?" Li Can was puzzled.
"Old Imperial Chef's recipe is a family tradition and is not allowed to be passed on to outsiders." Zhao Zhi said calmly.
"Okay then." Li Can stepped back and retreated.
She saw Wu Zao looking at her and smiled at Wu Zao.
Wu Zao hurriedly leaned over and watched her enter the house, then looked back at Zhao Zong.
When the girl had chicken pox, she refused to eat anything else. She only liked to eat two or three dishes cooked by the old imperial chef.
His Highness learned it himself, and for this reason he even became a disciple of the old imperial chef.
He understood His Highness's painstaking efforts and learned these dishes just to prepare for emergencies.
But why doesn’t His Highness always like to let girls know?
Your Highness is actually a human being, and learning these things does not happen overnight. Yesterday, I burned my fingers while cooking, and the girl didn't seem to know.
As for the most complicated four sets of eight treasures, His Highness also learned them, but they took too long and the materials used were too complex, making it inconvenient to make in Baifu.
The girl didn't know that if she was willing to eat a few more mouthfuls of food, His Highness would spend all his energy to do it.
He really wanted to tell the girl everything for His Highness, but he was afraid that His Highness would blame him, so he could only watch silently.
Li Can asked Candy and the others to clear the table and wait obediently at the table.
Zhao Ji came in a moment later carrying a large celadon-glazed porcelain bowl.
"It smells so good." Li Can arched his eyebrows with a happy expression.
Seeing her like this, Zhao Ye suddenly felt exhausted. He took a small bowl and filled the soup with it, and then took the spoon.
"I'll do it myself." Li Can reached out to pick it up.
Zhao Xie gave the bowl to her and said, "Be careful of burning it."
He sat down aside.
"Aren't you going to eat?" Li Can looked at him.
"I ate it on the way back when I came back." Zhao Zhen replied to her.
"Oh." Li Can nodded, scooped up a little bit of soup, blew on it, took a small sip, and praised him with squinted eyes: "It's so fresh, you made it delicious."
Zhao Ye said nothing, but there was a hint of smile and relief in his eyes.
Li Can took another small bite and said, "It's just so hot."
She stirred and blew in the bowl with a spoon, then remembered and asked him: "Are you going to Shenzhou today?"
"Yes." Zhao Zhen nodded: "I secretly met with my uncle."
"What did you say?" Li Can asked him.
"There are still honest officials in Shenzhou, but they are just few." Zhao Jie said: "My uncle gave me the list.
In the past three years, the affairs and words and deeds of each official have been recorded in the book. I will take a closer look at it later.
In addition, we need to discuss it with my uncle, as this matter seems to involve Yangzhou officialdom."
"Oh, that's right." Li Can nodded repeatedly: "I was just about to tell you."
"What?" Zhao Zhi raised his eyes to look at her.
"Liang Rongrui, the prefect of Yangzhou, is the son-in-law of the prefect of Shenzhou. They must be colluding." Li Can stopped the spoon in his hand and said seriously: "And the Liang family is not a thing. They bully others with their power and force my eldest cousin to insist on it."
Marry his dandy son."
As she spoke, she told Zhao Hao exactly what Bai Peiyu told her.
Finally, she said angrily: "You think, if your son is raised like this, what kind of good thing can Liang Rongrui be?
Anyway, he definitely can’t be an honest and good official."
Zhao Jie pondered for a moment and said, "It would be easier to deal with the corruption, perversion of the law, and malpractice for personal gain if it were verified.
It's just that these crimes are not punishable by death, but the in-laws between the two families are family matters that are difficult to resolve.
In addition, my grandfather is stubborn and refuses to break off the engagement, making this matter somewhat difficult to handle."
"It's naturally tricky to ask you to do it openly." Li Can pinched the spoon and looked at him with a smile: "I'll do it.
I can't punish corrupt officials, nor can I control the local emperors of Shenzhou, but I can cancel this marriage."
"What do you want?" Zhao Ye held the handkerchief and wiped the soup stains from the corners of her lips.
Li Can turned his head and looked at him and said, "What should he do if he offends me, the future crown princess?"
Zhao Zhen's men paused and immediately said: "You are not allowed to put yourself in danger."
"I have a candy ball, and he can't get close to me. Any offensive words are also offensive." Li Can rolled his eyes and said, "When the time comes, I will make the matter bigger.
With such a crime against Liang Zuoxun, my grandfather will not refuse if he proposes to withdraw from the engagement again, and no one outside will say that this matter is the fault of the White House."
"You are not allowed to go." Zhao Zhe said flatly: "I will arrange this matter."
"Why don't you allow me to go?" Li Can was unhappy, dropped the spoon and said angrily: "You promised that you won't restrict me in this way or that in the future.
Zhao Zeyu, you don’t mean what you say again!”
"Okay, let you go." There was a hint of helplessness in Zhao Zong's tone: "I will go with you."
"You've gone, do people still dare to come?" Li Can frowned.
"I'm in the dark, okay?" Zhao Zong softened his tone.
Li Can saw that he was tired and his eyes were a little red, so he couldn't bear it and nodded: "Okay then."
"Eat quickly." Zhao Zhe urged her.
Li Can then picked up the spoon and the bowl to feed him: "You also have a taste of what you made."
Zhao Zong followed her and took a bite.
Li Can looked at him and smiled: "In a while, are you going to live in Shenzhou?"
"It's possible." Zhao Zhen nodded: "It hasn't been decided yet."
"Then shall I go?" Li Can asked him.
Zhao Ye thought about it and said, "We'll see what happens when the time comes."
If there was danger, he would definitely not ask her to take risks.
"Then you go and do your work first. Don't you want to read those lists?" Li Can took a bite of snow fungus and said, "I'll eat it myself."
"Yes." Zhao Zhen stood up, sat on the soft couch beside him, took out the roster and looked at it carefully.
Li Can ate three small bowls in a row before throwing away the bowl and spoon with satisfaction: "I'm full."
But I never heard Zhao Zong's response.
She turned around to take a look, and saw Zhao Zong asleep leaning on the soft couch, still holding the roster list in his hand.
Li Can approached lightly and felt distressed when he saw that his brows were slightly furrowed, as if he was tired.
She went into the inner room, brought a soft fur blanket, and gently covered Zhao Zong.
After the battle at the riverside, when he arrived in Yangzhou, Zhao Ji was never idle for a moment.
It's not easy to cook food for her when you come back from work.
She sat down next to him and reached out to gently stroke his frown, but she couldn't smooth it out.
"What's on your mind..." Li Can sighed and murmured softly.
She took the booklet in Zhao Xie's hand and looked through it carefully, intending to sort out the main clues for him first.
Zhao Ye turned over, subconsciously hugged her slender waist, curled up close to her, and fell asleep again.
Li Can couldn't help but laugh when she saw that he was so tall and had to curl up close to her.
When she had flipped through more than half of the book, Candy poked her head at the door.
Li Can waved to her.
Tangtang tiptoed forward and reported in a low voice: "Girl, my uncle's wife received the post from the wife of the prefect of Yangzhou.
The prefect's wife said that she heard that the future Crown Princess is here and wants to entertain you.
The uncle's wife asked the girl if she was going?"
