Chapter 24 Who Is It?
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has always been weak, and he hardly ever set foot in the concubine's room, and when he went, he just sat down and left. Because of this, the stomachs of the three young masters did not move at all.
But the imperial doctor also said that His Royal Highness is in good health.
It means that although it is weak, it does not affect the succession of the family.
As a result, there was a faint speculation circulating in the palace, saying that His Highness the Crown Prince was fond of sharing peaches.
This is a matter of great importance to the emperor's heir, if something bad comes out to the ears of the emperor and empress, it will be a disaster.
So everyone said a few words in private.
But this morning, many palace people who got up early saw His Highness the Crown Prince coming back from outside with disheveled clothes and disheveled hair.
The rumor of splitting peaches was immediately self-defeating.
Liu Dequan was waiting for his head to be beheaded because he failed to find His Highness all night, and he was overjoyed to see his master come back in this state.
He didn't dare to ask directly, so he insinuated, wanting to know which master His Highness favored last night.
Zhao Yuanjing only gave him a cold look: "Ask again, die!"
Liu Dequan shivered for a moment, and dared not ask any more.
He lowered his eyebrows and pleasing to the eye, brought the clothes for the master to change, thinking in his heart, if he was spending the night in some young master's room, he shouldn't show such annoyance at all.
While changing his master's clothes, Liu Dequan caught a glimpse of suspicious marks on his master's body.
There are a few thin bloodstains on the back.
It looked like it was scratched by fingernails.
Liu Dequan immediately understood.
Pet, it must be pet.
But it's hard to say who the favorite is.
It's unlikely to be the three little masters, they don't have the guts to scratch the master's noble body.
The maid was even more afraid.
Could it be from outside?
Those women in the hook bar have all kinds of tricks, it's hard to say.
But why didn't the master bring any slaves with him when he left the palace last night?
How dangerous is this?
While serving his master to dress and comb his hair, Liu Dequan took the time to go out to find a clever little yellow gate, and went to the guard guarding the gate to check if there was any record of the prince entering or leaving.
It was quickly found out, and it wasn't.
In other words, the prince stayed in the East Palace all night and did not go out.
Liu Dequan's eyes became deep.
It seems that they are still from the East Palace.
Who is it...
He was thinking about it, the maid had already brought breakfast.
Liu Dequan had to check it first, and if there was no problem, he could bring it to the prince.
He saw it, hey, today's breakfast is a bit interesting, there are two extra plates of delicate and delicate snacks.
One plate is translucent small dumplings, you can clearly see the shrimp inside.
There is also a plate of pastries in the shape of pink peach blossoms, which are so lifelike that you can smell the fragrance of peach blossoms.
Liu Dequan thought that the prince was not happy, so he put the two plates of dim sum in front of Zhao Yuanjing graciously.
He said cheerfully, "Look at the kitchen, it's fresh. It's really cute. The cook sent by the Duke's mansion is quite capable."
Zhao Yuanjing glanced at the dim sum, somehow, he remembered the woman in the kitchen last night.
That ordinary woman.
Zhao Yuanjing pursed her thin lips, her eyes were dark.
He raised his hand, looked at a clear scar on his right wrist, and said slowly: "Liu Dequan, go to the kitchen and bring the new cook."
Liu Dequan said with a smile: "The people in the kitchen are vulgar, why do you want to see her?"
Zhao Yuanjing glanced at him coldly.
Liu Dequan's heart skipped a beat, he quickly bowed his head and bowed his head: "Your servant is going right away."
