Chu Ci didn't think much of it, but Chen Lan's expression was too unwilling, as if she was going to go in and poison the prince. To show her innocence, Chu Ci couldn't help but open the food box ahead of time and said very friendly: "Why don't you try the poison for the prince?"

  Chen Lan: "...... Never mind."

  "Then please restrain your gaze a bit." What a joke, she kindly made some pastries for the crown prince himself, not to mention they were not even for him to eat, why was he being so finicky?

  Chen Lan hastily lowered her head and didn't dare look at the crown princess again.

  Chu Ci then entered the palace.

  She thought Di Kuai was busy dealing with the accumulated government affairs, but after entering, she found that Di Kuai was practicing calligraphy with great interest. However, Chu Ci stood far away and couldn't see what he wrote clearly. She put the food box on the table, saw Di Kuai was unmoved, and thickened her skin to personally bring the pastries over, "Your Highness, I made osmanthus cake myself."

  She put it down at the same time, thinking of taking advantage of the opportunity to take a look at what Emperor Qi was writing, but unfortunately, Emperor Qi seemed to be using some kind of seal script, and she couldn't understand what he was writing. So, Chu Ci broke the silence and asked, "Your Highness, what is this character?"

  Di Hong let go of the pen in his hand and slowly spat out a word from his thin lips: "Stupid."

  "What's wrong?" Chu Ci reacted, "It's a cicada."

  "This king says you're stupid." Emperor Chi Li said while putting away his brush and paper.

  Chu Ci didn't respond and instead furrowed his brow, muttering: "Where am I stupid?"

  Di Qi Li ignored her and sat down, expressionlessly tasting the pastries she made.

  Chu Ci looked at him and saw that he was eating the pastries she made voluntarily, no longer angry, and sat down beside her on the couch, looking at him expectantly: "Is it delicious, Your Highness?"

  "What do you think?"

  "I think this time is definitely much better than last time, I didn't put salt in it this time."

  "Uh-huh."

  Di Hongli just nodded this time and didn't even give her a comment, silently eating the osmanthus cake.

  Chu Ci saw that Emperor Zhi's attitude had slightly softened, and he felt that there was still room for reconciliation. To show his sincerity, Chu Ci took off the star chain in his hand and returned it to him with respect, "Your Highness, thank you for accompanying me to Qingzhou this time."

  "You misunderstood."

  "Huh?"

  "This king has his own reason for going to Qingzhou."

  It means that Chu Ci is being overly sentimental again... Chu Ci's heart cooled down for a moment, but she quickly regained her confidence and told herself to be strong and get used to it. So she had no choice but to thicken her skin and say: "Anyway, I should thank you for your help, that's all. And also... on the way back to Kyoto, I didn't intentionally let you get sunburned, I really thought you were uncomfortable because you weren't getting any air, I hope you can forgive me, sir."

  Di Jun's eyes rose slightly, his expression unchanged: "You mean that I, the king, am petty?"

  "......Your Highness, I didn't!" Chu Ci hurriedly raised her hands to show her innocence. She didn't know if Emperor Chi was being intentional or not, but if he was, then he had gone too far! How could he distort her meaning like that?!

  "There's nothing if there's nothing, what are you making a fuss about." Emperor Chi seemed to find her too noisy and frowned slightly, saying calmly: "Go pour a cup of tea."
