Your Highness, the princess is going to paint your portrait

Chapter 117 Eggs
When Jing Chun returned to the room, he didn't notice anything wrong at today's banquet. The only thing that felt a little strange was the way Liu Kemian looked at him. That kind of look was like Jing Chun being regarded as admiring. like animals.

Jing Chun opened the window and looked at the scenery outside the window. For some reason, Jing Chun was particularly pessimistic today. Maybe he met a dead baby today, maybe Jing Chun still couldn't escape the shackles today.

A little breeze blows away Jing Chun's drunkenness.

"Qiao Ying." Jing Chun slightly called out the window.

A figure fell out of the window. Qiao Ying was a little dazed, as if she didn't know why Jing Chun called her.

Jing Chun didn't see him either, and asked directly, "Qiao Ying, are you hungry?"

?

Qiao Ying didn't understand for a while that as a bodyguard, if she was caring, she would definitely not be as accurate as Lu Chi in observing words and expressions.

Qiao Ying waited for a long time to regain her composure and asked, "Are you hungry? I'll go to the kitchen and bring you some snacks."

Jing Chun didn't think about himself first, "What about you? Are you hungry?"

Qiao Ying touched her stomach, nodded slightly, "It's a little bit."

Jing Chun smiled and opened the door, "Since you're all hungry, let's go to the kitchen and see what's available."

"Go to the kitchen?"

Jing Chun nodded, the beautiful night sky made her face have an unstoppable smile, "Yes."

Without waiting for Qiao Ying to speak, Jing Chun took Qiao Ying to the kitchen.

Inside the kitchen.

Jing Chun flipped left and right, it stands to reason that there should be a lot of food for the banquet today, but this Prince Li's Mansion is unwilling to keep things overnight, and all the things were disposed of by the cooks and maids.

"There are eggs!" Jing Chun's eyes lit up, and he turned one upside down, "The eggs are not small."

Now, the only thing that can satisfy Jing Chun's appetite is this basket of eggs.

Jing Chun didn't mind, as some of them were already difficult to eat.

But this is after all in Prince Li's Mansion, it would be great if he could tell Jiang Hejin, but Jiang Hejin would not care about these eggs with him.

Perhaps it was because of two glasses of wine in the evening that Jing Chun became more courageous, so he lit a fire alone and asked Qiao Ying to go watch the wind. If he really met someone, he wouldn't have nothing to say.

Jing Chun boiled the eggs, handed two to Qiao Ying, and said, "I can't talk about cooking skills, the only thing I can do is the skill of boiling eggs, do you have a try?"

Qiao Ying looked at Jing Chun in front of her. She thought that she would marry a high-ranking official woman with the temper of her highness, but she never expected that Jing Chun in front of her would be so eclectic and unconstrained. Condescending temperament.

Qiao Ying took it and said, "Thank you, Princess."

Jing Chun also took advantage of the opportunity to sit on the steps, rolling it skillfully in his hand, his green fingers quickly made the egg reveal its coveted tender white.

Jing Chun's thoughts also vaguely recalled the past, "When I was not out of the cabinet, my life was not so good. Even eating an egg was a luxury. I still remember that day when I was with King Li. When His Highness's decree of marriage came down, my sister couldn't stand it, so she could only vent her anger on me..."

Jing Chun also seemed to realize that what he said was a bit of a family scandal, so he skipped Jing Shuyao's plot and continued: "On that day, Aunt Lan brought me about twenty eggs, and the eggs were only worth one egg. Fragrant."

"Does Niangniang like eggs so much?"

Jing Chun thought for a while, then nodded, she likes to eat eggs not because of Jing Chun's unique eating habits, but because of the original owner's love, "When I was in Gusu, I was still in foster care at that time, my aunt's house There are two older brothers, they can always get the love of my aunt and uncle, but my two older brothers are people who don't like egg yolks, so my aunt gave me the egg yolks, so that for a long time afterwards, I thought egg whites were a panacea with a unique charm."

Jing Chun sighed softly, "But when I grow up, I can also understand that those egg whites have no unique charm, it's just that the unattainability of a young man is forced to become a cycle of expectations, even if time passes by. The passage of time has left an obsession in my heart, and I also regard this egg as the food that makes me happiest."

Qiao Ying was silent for a long time, then slowly said, "I never knew about these things, Madam."

Seeing Qiao Ying's depressed mood, Jing Chun smiled slightly, and replied: "It's all about the past, my life is not bad now, at least I don't have to worry about these things."

As he spoke, Jing Chun held up the eggs with both hands and smiled in the breeze.

"If it's not enough, I'll cook some more..." Jing Chun said, just as he was about to finish his mouth, he saw a figure approaching.

Who did Jing Chun think it was?But he didn't expect it to be Lu Chi.

Lu Chi saw the two of them sitting on the steps of the kitchen, with a somewhat puzzled expression on his face, but seeing the eggs in their hands, he could probably guess the purpose of their arrival.

Jing Chun was stunned for a while, then slowly handed out an egg, as if trying to bribe the visitor with an egg.

"Guard Lu, what are you doing here?"

Is it really because of a few eggs?

"Your Highness didn't eat anything at the banquet, let the subordinates see if there are any snacks in the back kitchen."

Lu Chi forgot to take a look at the sparks still shining in the stove. He thought it was because there was nothing delicious that he set off the fireworks.

After all, cannibals have short hands, so Jing Chun was not polite. After leaving two for himself, he handed them all to Lu Chi and said, "This is what I just cooked. It's not something from outside. If you don't mind, it's okay." Give me this as a commission."

Knowing Jiang Hejin's suspicion, Jing Chun simply took a bite of the freshly peeled egg, "Look, it's all good, and there will never be any poisoning."

Qiao Ying looked at Jing Chun's attempt to explain, as if only such actions could prove Jing Chun's innocence. It is conceivable that everything Jing Chun faced was Jiang Hejin's aimless suspicion.

The ridiculous thing is that in Prince Li's Mansion, the fact is exactly the same.

At that moment, Qiao Ying felt sorry for Jing Chun inexplicably. She suddenly realized that Jing Chun was a helpless person. His Royal Highness Li Wang never took Jing Chun under his wings, and even exposed Jing Chun to others with ulterior motives. In the shadow of the day, Qiao Ying's own existence is nothing more than a surveillance in the name of protection.

Qiao Ying silently raised a question in her heart: What does Jing Chun, who thinks she has everything, have?And what is Jing Chun most interested in?

After all, wasn't Jing Chun chosen by Jiang Hejin just because he had nothing?
