Chapter 568: 568: Little Fatty



“Isn’t there already a table outside? Your Highness, just go and eat.”

“What, don’t you want to return to your maternal home?”

“…I’ll do it.”

A wise man submits to circumstances.

The next day, Jiang Ning prepared a table of food meticulously. The emperor’s eldest grandson, who was about to leave for school, couldn’t resist eating and stayed behind to have a meal before finally leaving with satisfaction.

Watching his retreating figure, Huang Ying was worried, “Master, haven’t you noticed any changes in the emperor’s eldest grandson?”

“What changes?”

“The young master is getting fatter.”

“Really?” Jiang Ning looked at Li Tingqian’s departing figure, “Well… indeed he has put on a bit of weight.”

“It’s not just putting on weight, Master.”

“It’s alright for a child to be a little chubby.” Jiang Ning didn’t care, “Once he reaches puberty, he will grow taller.”

Huang Ying couldn’t understand.

But people in Great Sheng do not consider obesity to be beautiful.

If the Princess Consort makes the emperor’s eldest grandson too fat and lose his human form, she will not be favored by the Emperor and Empress.

You should know that the former imperial eldest grandson, despite Li Hongyuan’s meticulous care, was extremely thin. But since he followed Jiang Ning, his appetite had grown, and his cheeks had visibly filled out.

While a slightly round-faced child is cute, being overly fat is not desirable.

Jiang Ning thought for a while, “Next time, I’ll control his portions a little.”

She took the cloth and wiped her face, sighing, “Cooking with a purpose is making me hate the kitchen.”

Huang Ying said with pity, “This kind of thing was never meant for you to do. If Madam knew, she would be heartbroken. Madam has never touched anything related to the kitchen in her life.”

Jiang Ning stretched out her hand, “My hands are meant for hardship, and they cannot compare with my mother’s delicate fingers. You send someone to take these dishes there.”

“I’ll go personally so that someone like Li Xiu, who has no discernment, won’t block our way.”

Huang Ying filled a large food container and brought it to Crystal Frost Hall, only to see Li Xiu kneeling in the courtyard, pale and trembling.

She just glanced at him and understood. She stood beside Li Xiu for a moment without saying anything and then entered Crystal Frost Hall.

When she came out, she stopped beside Li Xiu and said, “I warned you.”

Li Xiu gave a bitter smile without saying a word.

Huang Ying returned to the East Palace and recounted what she had seen and heard.

“Li Xiu was punished to kneel? Who punished him?” Jiang Ning asked.

“Since Li Xiu is under the Crown Prince, naturally the Crown Prince punished him.”

“What did he do?” In Jiang Ning’s impression, Li Xiu was an honest-looking man with a simple face.

Perhaps it was due to Li Hongyuan’s suspicious nature. Unlike the Emperor, he did not like his attendants to be too smooth or cunning.

Huang Ying said, “I asked around, but I’m not sure why. Li Xiu came out to kneel not long after the Crown Prince returned last night.”

“So, he’s been kneeling from last night until now?”

Jiang Ning subconsciously touched her own knees.

Having been disabled before, she felt some sympathy for this situation.

“Li Hongyuan is indeed a cold-hearted and unfeeling man. Li Xiu is loyal to him, even if he gets punished, why make him kneel for so long? Won’t his knees rot?”

Jiang Ning frowned, “Could it be because Li Xiu revealed Li Hongyuan’s inner thoughts to you last night?”

Huang Ying remained silent.

At this point, Chunlai said, “Master, Side Concubine Li requests an audience.”
