Only then did Nangong Lin remember what Yan Xiaoxi had said in the mountains. The poison in his body was only temporarily suppressed and he still needed to take the antidote to recover.

Instantly, he understood why Yan Xiaoxi had angrily ran out.

After drinking the medicine, Nangong Lin put down what he was doing. As soon as he walked out of the room, he saw the guards standing stiffly on the spot.

Needless to say, it must have been Yan Xiaoxi's work.

"Your Highness, please forgive me for not stopping the wangfei." Seeing Yan Xiaoxi running out of the room in such a short time, the guards immediately knew what had happened to her.

He would definitely be punished by the prince, so he had long been prepared for this.

"There won't be a next time." With that, Nangong Lin walked quickly to his room.

The guard looked at Nangong Lin's retreating back in disbelief. It was unbelievable that the king would let him go. Perhaps, in the future, the wangfei would be their savior.

Inside the room of the ancient Tian Xiang room, Yan Xiaoxi took a brush and drew Nangong Lin's appearance on a piece of paper out of anger. She purposely drew him ugly, with a slightly larger nose and smaller eyes.

When Nangong Lin walked in, he saw that Yan Xiaoxi's shy face had turned into the shape of a kitten with brushstrokes all over it.

"Woman, angry?" These words were obviously a question that he knew the answer to.

Yan Xiaoxi ignored him and continued painting.

"This King did not do it on purpose." Nangong Lin passed the pastries on the table to Yan Xiaoxi, but she remained indifferent.

Seeing this, Nangong Lin knew that Yan Xiaoxi was really angry this time.

He was still waiting for her to concoct a poison pill for him. Now that he angered her, it was time for him to start something new.

"Woman, didn't This King owe you 40 roasted chicken? I'll return it to you now." This was the only thought that came to Nangong Lin's mind that could make Yan Xiaoxi lose her temper.

But this time, Yan Xiaoxi didn't react at all.

Yan Xiaoxi also understood that Nangong Lin was still counting on her to make the pills for him. Since Nangong Lin needed something from her, she wouldn't be able to cancel it with more than a dozen roasted chicken every time.

In this way, she would suffer a great loss.

"I want to add code." Yan Xiaoxi stated her condition.

Nangong Lin smiled. He knew that this woman had no resistance against delicious food.

Thus, he agreed, "Ok."

However, how could he know that this time, Yan Xiaoxi was purposely making things difficult for him. She opened her mouth wide and said, "I want four hundred roasted chicken."

What? Four hundred words of roast chicken? Even if he was in the palace, he wouldn't be able to get four hundred words of roasted chicken in such a short time!

"I'm giving in because you're sincere, but I want four hundred per step. Otherwise, that would be four thousand." Even Yan Xiaoxi herself could not imagine what it would be like to have four hundred words of roast chicken in front of her.

Hmph, who asked him to confiscate his roasted chicken? Now, it's time for retribution.

That was why his Master had always said that as a person, one should be pious. Doing things was always better than doing things normally. If one did good things every day, they would naturally receive a good reward.

Nangong Lin was completely speechless. How could he not see through this naked revenge?

This woman was really narrow-minded. When it came to food, her methods were different.

"If I can't, as long as Linlin promises me, no matter what happens, he will never confiscate my meat." This was Yan Xiaoxi's plan from a long time ago.

"Four hundred words of roast chicken. This King will give it to you." For him, a dignified Duke Nanshui Kingdom, to not even be able to make a request like roasting chicken with four hundred words, how would he even have the face to do so if word of this got out?

"Alright, it's fine if you have roasted chicken." Yan Xiaoxi curled her lips. Although she didn't achieve her goal, having four hundred roasted chicken was still pretty good.

Four hundred was enough for her to eat for a long time.

And so, a scene like this appeared on the Nanshui Kingdom.

The people with Prince Lin's Mansion scattered everywhere within the city. They shuttled back and forth between the tavern to buy roasted chicken and the market to buy the live chicken in the hands of the hawker.

On this day, the chicken hawkers all made a ton of money and took the opportunity to ask for a price, selling it at a price several times higher than usual.

In the Prince Lin's Mansion, the kitchen had stopped cooking other food and was wholeheartedly focusing on making roasted chicken.

In next to no time, the four hundred roasted chickens that Yan Xiaoxi wanted were placed in front of her, filling up a few rooms.

That day, Yan Xiaoxi ate until her belly was bloated, making her completely allergic to roasted chicken. Later on, even she felt like vomiting when she heard those two words. From then on, roasted chicken was removed from her recipe.

Due to the side effects, Yan Xiaoxi, who loved to eat delicacies for the first time ever, had no appetite. She ate several mouthfuls of porridge three times a day.

However, this phenomenon only lasted for three days.

It was a sunny day with no clouds in sight.

Xiao Cui rushed into the room and snatched the chopsticks from Yan Xiaoxi's hands. She said nervously, "Esteemed wangfei, something bad has happened. You can still eat right now."

"Why can't I eat anymore? I haven't touched meat in three days." Yan Xiaoxi mumbled indistinctly with food in her mouth.

Xiao Cui looked at Yan Xiaoxi helplessly before continuing, "Princess, Liu Zhixue is here."

"Who's Liu Zhixue?" Yan Xiaoxi looked at Xiao Cui in confusion.

"Prince's childhood sweetheart." Xiao Cui did not have the intention to hear about this from the Wang Mansion's servants.

Liu Zhixue and Nangong Lin had known each other since childhood. Not only were they talented, they even liked each other. Originally, they were already set to get married, but when they reached the age of marriage, Nangong Lin actually broke the engagement for no reason.

Otherwise, the person sitting in Princess Lin's seat would definitely be her.

Hearing Xiao Cui's words, Yan Xiaoxi instantly felt that something was wrong.

Presumably, in this world, only she knew that Nangong Lin cancelled the marriage due to the poison in his body.

Her master had once told her that a man's first love was the most unforgettable. Like her father, he only married his mother and had always been admired by the world.

If Liu Zhixue took over her position as an imperial concubine, wouldn't she have no more delicacies to eat in the future?

No, definitely not like this!

Yan Xiaoxi immediately got up from the stool and ran towards the living room.

When she arrived, what she saw was a scene like this.

In the large main hall, a woman who was as beautiful as a fairy sat on a chair. The light of spring was on her chest as she looked up at Nangong Lin with deep love.

Nangong Lin was standing in front of her with his back bent, carefully blowing on her eyes. He was as gentle as water and Yan Xiaoxi had never seen him before.

"seductress." Yan Xiaoxi whispered.

He didn't know why he felt sad, but it felt like a hundred roasted chickens had been robbed.

She walked in indignantly, ignoring the intimate actions of the two and called out as usual, "Linlin."

Only after hearing the familiar voice did Nangong Lin stop. He stood up, looked at Yan Xiaoxi and asked, "Why are you here?"
