The Love Imagination System

Part 48: The Dining Box

Some say that Princess Consort Changle is unreasonable and crazy. The crowd was gossiping about the figure of the princess, describing her as a very cruel witch. They both thought that Liu Qingyi, the daughter of the prime minister, was a hibernating tigress. He hid his fangs for many years in the prime minister's residence, then lunged at everyone when he had entered King Changle's mansion.

The rumor circulating and the most popular in the imperial city right now was about the happenings in the men's brothels back then. The people who saw firsthand the events of that day, when Qingyi jumped and landed on Baili Qingchen's body, spread the news at every crossroads. He said, if any woman dares to be disrespectful to the War God Bingyue, then she is Liu Qingyi.

Even storytellers tell this in their stories. Liu Qingyi's name became famous in a short time, like an impromptu artist. Most of them admired her figure, but not a few also ridiculed her and felt that Princess Empress Changle was very bad and did not know manners.

Although rumors spread widely even to the palace, but the person who was rumored was calm. Qingyi shut her ears tightly to all the news about her. He is not a person who thirsts for respect or deliberately wants social climbing. Gossip remains gossip, rumors are nothing but nonsense that comes out of the mouth of people who do not have a job.

While listening to Yinghao's rant about the rumors of her, Qingyi opened the feeding box that Consort Sun gave her excitedly. A delicious aroma instantly pierced his nose and made him swallow. The dish inside the lunchbox was arguably the most luxurious meal, as it was made directly by the imperial chef using the best ingredients.

“Hah, bullshit. Even if I was said to be crazy, I don't care,” his chatter to Yinghao. After all, he was also very surprised, why people like to talk about something that is actually not in accordance with reality.

“Yo, it looks like your tolerance to rumors is really high,” chirps someone.

As Qingyi turned her head, she saw Luo Niang enter her courtyard while carrying something.

“Not my high tolerance. I just don't want to waste time with such nonsense,” Qingyi replied. Yinghao immediately realized his position and went to the Qingyi residence, then turned back into a panda and slept in the dimensional space.

Luo Niang then placed himself in the recliner. Today was the day of his freedom after being locked up in the palace for several days due to the incident at the brothel. Consort Dowager Sun punished her by writing a woman's book until her fingers nearly broke. Really, he did not think that the effect would be truly extraordinary.

Qingyi ate the food of Consort Dowager Sun voraciously. Luo Niang also put his box on the table, then took it out. He brought some sweet snacks that he made in the palace kitchen, still warm and looking good. Some snack plates were served on a small table, and the two women ate them together.

“I didn't know you had a carrier pigeon that could deliver mail to distant places in less than twenty-four hours.”

Of course, because the bird is a system modification, Qingyi said in her heart.

“You should know me more if you want to know everything about me,” Qingyi said. Well, his words make sense.

However, in this world, who could understand him? Qingyi is not just any girl. He has a brilliant brain that can think of anything. She was an adult woman who shrunk into an eighteen-year-old girl. He had a thought that could change in a split second. His words, his mannerisms, and everything about him were not something that people could guess haphazardly.

Baili Qingchen alone until this point still did not really understand it. The mysteriousness coupled with the frequent surprises given could not make him understand the girl even though he had lived together long enough. Only Qingyi understood herself.

“When Baili Qingyan leaves?” qingyi asked Luo Niang.

“Maybe three more days,” he replied.

“I hope he doesn't come back here again forever.”

“Why?”

“If he returns, his life will not survive.”

But, Qingyi was grateful that Baili Qingyan did not have to be a victim. Young men seem to be supposed to live free. His bond with Bingyue was indeed undecidable, but at least he should have his own way of life. Bingyue is not a safe place. Although Chen is also not safe, but someone can protect him if he is there.

“How's my cousin's disease condition?”

Somehow he suddenly remembered his cousin's old illness which was considered a curse. “It's healed,” the girl said.

“As long as he keeps his diet, he can recover completely.”

“Uh, it turns out that the prophecy was true. It doesn't seem in vain that you marry her, Qingyi.”

Qingyi snorted at the sentence. Stupid predictions, he thought. In this world where there is a curse. It is simply something born of the folly that man hides. King Changle was not cursed by a strange disease, but because of his poor stomach health. Stupid healers, can't even diagnose a disease like this.

“Fucking forecast! I'll beat up the guy if I meet!”

Luo Niang broke his laughter. He did not take the prophecy seriously. Just like Qingyi who did not believe it. It was all just the wits of officials who wanted to weaken the position of King Changle that was approved by Emperor Baili. They conspired to weaken his cousin because his power was considered too strong. So far, Luo Niang hated those hypocrites.

The food at the table is almost gone. Everything had already entered into Luo Niang and Qingyi's stomach. Both of them leaned back in the recliner, enjoying the warm afternoon breeze. The weather was clear, and now the snow had melted completely. Qingyi wanted to rest for a while after a full week of not sleeping well.

Without feeling it, the girl closed her eyes and fell asleep there. Baili Qingchen came to check, and found her cousin and wife relaxing together in the park. Luo Niang noticed the arrival of his cousin, then immediately got up. Aih, but not ten minutes have passed.

“He may be exhausted. A-Chen, don't let him work too hard,” Luo Niang told his cousin.

“I know.”

“If until my cousin-in-law gets sick, I will stop the shipment of wine you requested secretly!”

Baili Qingchen's words were instantly stuck in her throat. He told his cousin to keep the sound down. If Qingyi heard it, she was in trouble. All this time, all the wine in the mansion had been confiscated until not a single jug remained.

Baili Qingchen outsmarted him by having Luo Niang send him at some certain time, and that wine grape was the best wine of the palace. Qingyi could skin Baili Qingchen or roast her alive if she knew she was secretly drinking wine. Xiao Junjie alone was not even told.

“Please your voice!”

“Uh, since when did this ferocious lion on the battlefield turn into a male cat who was afraid of his females?” joked Luo Niang.

“Be quiet!”

Luo Niang's stifled laughter made Baili Qingchen so irritated. Baili Qingchen held Qingyi slowly, then carried her into her room. Luo Niang watched the scene until the end, quietly putting on his smile. This scene is sweeter than candy. Her abnormal cousin, it seems, is starting to find his way back.
