Quick Travel: Dream Hunt

The prince who had reacted immediately followed up: "Yes, Liu Tinghe, how did you, as the prince's consort, do it? You even dared to contradict my mother, so why did you come all the way here to make up a story? Have you been wronged by marrying into my Prince Jing's mansion?"

The prince raised his chopsticks and slammed them on the table, saying:

"Ting He is here. Come up. I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you in good health?"

Hearing this, Ting He walked forward, coughed softly a few times and then immediately stopped, bowed weakly to Prince Jing and said:

"The daughter-in-law greets the prince, mother and the prince."

After the ceremony, Tinghe twisted her handkerchief nervously, standing there stiffly and not saying a word.

Prince Jing looked at Tinghe's skinny body, pale face, and occasional coughing. He looked at the princess and the prince in confusion, then at Liu Tinghe. In the end, he didn't ask anything, but politely said:

"Ting He is here, let's have a meal together."

Ting He walked up obediently and politely bowed to everyone again before sitting down tremblingly next to the prince.

The prince Liu Ziyuan said loudly: "Liu Tinghe, what are you doing here?"

These words frightened Ting He so much that she shook for a moment. She stood up quickly, lowered her head and stood beside the prince, not daring to speak.

The princess' eyelids twitched as she watched. She wanted to explode but the prince was there and she didn't know where to start. She could only watch the little bitch Liu Tinghe continue her performance.

Prince Jing looked at his nose and his heart, as if he understood something, and changed the subject: "Ting He, are you here to bring food to your mother?"

Ting He then raised his head and said with a smile:

"Last time, when mother was ill, I gave her ginseng and snow lotus from her dowry for her to recuperate. It seemed that mother's condition had improved, but this morning, mother came to my room and seemed to be angry again. I was afraid that mother would be angry again. After thinking about it, I can't take out the precious medicinal materials, but I can bring her food to add to her meal. I hope mother will not be angry again because I refused my cousin to enter the house this morning."

When the princess heard this, her eyes widened and she couldn't breathe. She stared at Ting He with hatred in her eyes. This bitch actually dared to complain.

Before she could even respond, the prince came to her aid:

"What? You made my mother sick? You also refused Piaopiao's admission to the mansion? Liu Tinghe, what right do you have? You are a hen that can't lay eggs, how dare you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a chill on his back and goose bumps appeared on his skin. His expression changed in an instant and he froze in place. Oh no, what did he say? He taught this hen that couldn't lay eggs a lesson in front of his father.

The prince was furious, and sneered with bloodshot eyes:

"Okay, okay, is this how you two mother and son manage the palace? Is the legitimate wife of the Crown Prince living a life of servility? Cousin entering the palace? What cousin? I won't allow it. Liu Huaying, return all the treasures you got from my daughter-in-law. Are you sick with anger? Why didn't I see that? Okay, you two mother and son teamed up to bully someone else's daughter-in-law, right? It's a misfortune for our family, a misfortune for our family."

The prince was so angry that he smashed the teacup and sat there gasping for breath. He looked extremely angry, but Ting He knew that he was just pretending, so he stepped forward again and said softly:

"Don't blame me, Your Majesty. I didn't know that my presence would make Your Majesty and Your Majesty unhappy. I just wanted to use the matter of my cousin to send food to Mother and I didn't know that my presence would cause such serious consequences and even make Your Majesty angry. Ahem, ahem, I really shouldn't have done that..."

Before he could finish his words, Ting He started to cough violently. The prince could no longer get angry and said softly:

"Oh~ In that case, I will definitely try the food that Ting He sent me."

As the food box was about to be opened, Holma immediately added:

"Your Highness has misunderstood. My daughter-in-law is not feeling well and cannot cook for herself. This is the daily food she brought from the kitchen. I am offering this as a token of my appreciation."

Hearing this, the princess reacted quickly and rebuked:

"You brought it from the kitchen? You didn't make it yourself. Why are you trying to show off your filial piety? We have all kinds of food in our palace. Take the lunch box back quickly. It's embarrassing."

At this time, the prince had already walked up and took the food from Haitang. Haitang was so scared that she handed it over with trembling hands, but her eyes were full of excitement.

With a click, the lid of the box was taken off, and the only fake smile on the prince's angry face disappeared, because the food sent by Tinghe was a bowl of watery white porridge and a moldy steamed bun.

His hand froze in mid-air, and he stared at the lunch box for a long time without saying a word.

The prince didn't understand what he meant, so he stood up and looked at the lunch box. When he saw the porridge and steamed buns, he got angry and shouted:

"What a Liu Tinghe! Has the palace treated you unfairly? You use this kind of leftovers to humiliate my father, the king, and my mother."

When Liu Tinghe heard this, he immediately knelt down on the ground with trembling legs and retorted:

"No, no, I clearly asked Haitang to go to the kitchen to get some fresh food, how could this happen? I also specifically said it was for Princess Yu, how could it become my normal food? It's ok for these slaves to bully me normally, but how could they just treat my mother perfunctorily? There must be a misunderstanding about the food, and I forgot to investigate it clearly, Your Majesty."

Liu Tinghe spoke in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, only asking the prince to conduct a thorough investigation.

Prince Jing was in a dilemma. He could neither ignore it nor take care of everything. He could only say, "Bring everyone in the kitchen here."

Soon, a large group of people knelt down, and the leading nanny cried and explained:

"Your Highness, we are just servants. How could we have the guts to humiliate the Crown Prince's wife? Your Highness's food really has nothing to do with us. I, the old servant, really don't know."

The group of people kneeling on the ground also took the opportunity to cry out that they were wronged. Ting He coughed at the right time and whispered softly:

"Father, let's just forget about this. Maybe something went wrong somewhere else. I, your daughter-in-law, will go make a meal and send it over right away."

After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave. The prince could no longer maintain his dignity. Looking at Ting He's lonely and helpless back, and then at the group of servants who were crying out for injustice, he was furious and gave the order:

"Come here, check for me. Take them down and give each of them fifty lashes. If you can't find anything, just give them all the lashes and sell them all off."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of servants kneeling on the ground were dumbfounded. They shouted that they were innocent and shouted for mercy, and they all looked in the direction of the princess.

Although the princess' eyes were wandering and she was looking away, as if she was staying out of the matter, as an old general who had followed the old emperor to fight on the battlefield, Prince Jing was disappointed and angry. Damn Liu Huaying, she actually treated General Liu's daughter like this, she was simply risking the whole world's condemnation by doing such a cruel thing.
