Chapter 15: The Gift of Side Dishes
"Mr. Dong, please rise."
Lin Wanyi said politely, somewhat surprised by the arrival of Dong Yuzhong.
Thinking to herself, "The Emperor really knows how to pick a time to send gifts."
She had just "stirred up" trouble at Linzi Palace, and now he’s sending fuel to the fire?
Truly, it seems he enjoys the spectacle and turmoil.
However, she only dared to think these things privately, maintaining a calm and gentle demeanor outwardly.
Dong Yuzhong waved his hand, and two little eunuchs behind him brought forward a tray adorned with silk. Inside, there were no rare treasures; rather, two plates of ordinary side dishes to go with porridge.
Others were bewildered, but Lin Wanyi was shocked.
These side dishes were the same two served with the fish porridge last night, weren’t they?
At that time, she refrained from indulging out of courtesy. Did the Emperor notice this and now send them for her to taste?
Seeing everyone in a daze, Dong Yuzhong immediately explained.
"His Majesty said he noticed that Miss seemed to like them yesterday, so today he specially sent them for you to try. If you like them, the Imperial Kitchen can send them to you from time to time in the future."
