Chapter 669: 669 was found

Following closely, Princess Consort Jing and Liu Yunqing came out to meet him.

"Prince, have you taken your evening meal? I have just prepared dinner here, would you care to join me?"

Liu Yunqing also stood up to greet him, "This commoner pays respects to the Prince."

Prince Jing merely nodded his head and continued walking forward.

Seeing Princess Consort Jing’s smile blooming like a flower pained his heart.

For he did not know whether this woman still possessed a heart.

Yesterday, when she pleaded for Jiujiu’s forgiveness, the pitiful look on her face truly shook one’s heart, but in just one day’s time, she was able to laugh so heartily again.

It truly made one wonder whether her heartache from yesterday was simply feigned!

Prince Jing approached the dining table and found the extravagant delicacies completely unappetizing.

Ironic as it was, Princess Consort Jing sat beside him with a self-perceived attentive demeanor and ordered, "Bring another set of utensils for the Prince."

"Hold on," Prince Jing halted the servant who was about to leave, "Go tell the kitchen to prepare a simple peasant meal. Just wild vegetables and dark bread, make it the way country folk do, without any special processing."

The servant looked helplessly at Princess Consort Jing before responding, "Yes."

It was evident to everyone that Prince Jing was in a foul mood.

Princess Consort Jing knew what Prince Jing was up to today, thus she inquired, "Prince, are you displeased today because the yield of sweet potatoes didn’t meet expectations?"

Prince Jing shook his head and counter-questioned, "Where is Zhouzhou? Why wasn’t he called to dine?"

Princess Consort Jing’s expression revealed displeasure, but it flickered only briefly before she disguised it, "Zhouzhou has become fond of playing these days, and I can’t control him. He ran out and hasn’t returned yet."

Prince Jing scoffed internally, suspecting it was not that she couldn’t control him, but rather she didn’t want to.

Now that the child was no longer of any use, she would surely feel more at ease if he were lost, wouldn’t this cruel woman?

However, as long as Prince Jing kept his thoughts hidden, they would not be able to guess what he was truly thinking.

"You don’t have to stand either, it’s just a meal, there’s no need for such formality, please sit," Prince Jing said to Liu Yunqing.

"Thank you, Prince," Liu Yunqing bowed again.

Prince Jing spoke up, "I just heard Princess Consort talk to Yunqing and it seemed to be a cheerful conversation. May I know what it was about?"

"No..."

Liu Yunqing was about to speak, but Princess Consort Jing interrupted, "The Prince may not know, but Yunqing has taken a liking to a girl and asked for my help in proposing marriage. Now that the Prince is also here, why not ask the Prince for his counsel on the matter?"

Princess Consort Jing’s face was full of smiles, but she failed to notice Liu Yunqing’s discontent and disapproval, as well as the anxious figure of nanny Liu waiting outside yet not daring to come in.

Upon hearing Princess Consort’s words, Prince Jing’s palm under the table clenched instantly. In his heart, however, he was still hoping that it was not as he suspected, otherwise...

Fortunately, Liu Yunqing was a sensitive person and realized Prince Jing’s unease before Princess Consort Jing could, "Prince, Yunqing merely met that girl once. She is pure and lovely, and Yunqing only sees her as a sister, with no other intentions. It was only mentioned to cheer up my aunt who seemed to be in low spirits; I didn’t expect to be misunderstood."

"Yunqing!" An admonishing voice from Princess Consort Jing followed immediately after.

"Aunt, what Yunqing has said is indeed true. Besides, Yunqing is not of significant age, so I ask you not to worry about your nephew’s affairs," Liu Yunqing insisted.

Princess Consort Jing was full of anger at Liu Yunqing’s lack of tactfulness yet was powerless to do anything about it.
