After rebirth, His Highness Xinshu was pampered by me.

Chapter 430 Eye Drops Must Not Be Missed

Jinse could sense from Lin Yi's tone that he disliked Cha Lan.

She didn't say anything about it, but simply explained what had happened after Cha Lan came to the manor, so that Lin Yi could rest assured.

Jinse thought that she just didn't like to think too much, but she couldn't really be that stupid, could she? Couldn't she see that Chalan's visit to the Twelfth Prince's residence today had ulterior motives?
It's not like Lin Yi needs to worry about that much.

Lin Yi chuckled: "Oh, I see."

His eyes darted around, and he quickly added, "I didn't expect that the Princess Consort of Ankang would be so tolerant, even allowing the concubines in the Prince's residence to go out and run around."

I feel a little more at ease, but I still can't skip taking the eye drops every time.

Unfortunately, Jinse was completely unaware that Lin Yi said this to put Chalan in a bad light.

If they realized it, they would probably be speechless and tell Lin Yi that he didn't need to do that at all.
Since meeting Cha Lan today, Jinse has clearly felt the distance between herself and Cha Lan.

She thought that she and Chalan would probably never be able to get along as well as they used to when they were in the Imperial Tea Room.

Thinking about it, Jinse sighed and then immediately changed the subject.

"Speaking of which, since Cha Lan came to the manor to see me today, I've been thinking about Sister Cha Qing. Before you came, I went out of the manor to buy some small things. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to give them to her later?"

As Jinse spoke, she picked up the already wrapped items and showed them to Lin Yi.

They're all just small, unremarkable food and toys.

Lin Yi glanced at it and nodded: "This is nothing. I'll send it to Miss Cha Qing when we get back to the palace."

Jinse quickly thanked him with a smile, then took out a larger package from somewhere: "These are some small things from outside the palace, for Your Highness, you, and Lin Shun. There aren't many things, so please don't mind."

Lin Yi hadn't expected that he and Lin Shun would receive one as well. He immediately grinned and said, "A gift from a young lady, no matter how small, is a token of her affection. How could we possibly look down on it?"

As he spoke, Lin Yi took the things from Jinse's hands and neatly put them away.

Although His Highness certainly owns the majority of this, he still has a share, doesn't he?
Of course, it wasn't that Lin Yi was lacking Jinse's little gift; he just felt that it was already very gratifying that Jinse would think of giving him and Lin a gift at a time like this.

It's not about the things themselves, it's about the sentiment.

Seeing that Lin Yi didn't seem to mind and even seemed quite happy, Jinse unconsciously became happy as well.

He casually asked, "Is Eunuch Yi in a hurry to return to the palace today? If not, I'll have the head kitchen prepare a meal early so that Eunuch Yi can try the cooks' skills before returning to the palace?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi's eyes lit up, clearly showing his interest in Jinse's suggestion.

Jinse didn't ask any more questions. Seeing that it was almost time, she directly ordered someone to go to the main kitchen to deliver the message.

No master has moved into the Twelfth Prince's residence yet, but everyone in the main kitchen is already on duty.

As soon as Jinse relayed the message, the kitchen instantly sprang into action.

The two newly arrived chefs, upon learning of the situation, did not complain about the trouble or refuse to cook because their masters had not yet arrived. They immediately took charge of cooking several dishes and brought them up.

The chef's skills are excellent.

Lin Yi ate very happily, so he returned to the palace a little later than usual.

He managed to return to the palace just before the palace gates closed.
