Reborn Princess

After hearing this, Shen Lilan's eyes widened. How could he be so shameless? It was obvious that he had sneaked into his yard in the middle of the night.

"You!" Shen Lilan said angrily.

"How about me? Huh?" Zhou Cechen had a smile in his eyes.

"You are shameless!"

"I'm shameless?" Zhou Cechen curled his lips.

"It was clearly the princess who kissed me first." Zhou Cechen defended.

Shen Xilan frowned and would not have mentioned it if he had known it earlier.

In fact, she really wanted to ask him why he didn't respond to her that night. If it weren't for his cold attitude, she would have thought that he had no feelings for her.

She wouldn't be so cold after marrying him, and the two of them wouldn't miss each other.

Zhou Cechen noticed that Shen Lilan was in a low mood, and he lifted up Shen Lilan's face.

"I remember everything about that night," he said.

"You are not allowed to remember." Shen Lilan demanded unreasonably.

Zhou Cechen laughed, "Why?"

"You were so cute that night."

When Shen Lilan looked up at him again, tears filled her eyes. "Very embarrassed."

Zhou Cechen frowned, "What?"

"That night, it was the first time I felt so embarrassed in front of you."

Zhou Cechen pressed the corner of Shen Lilan's eyes with his thumb, and they became wet.

"I was really happy that night." Zhou Cechen was happy as long as he could see Shen Lilan.

"But I hugged you and kissed you like that, and you didn't give me any response at all."

At that time, Shen Lilan wanted to ask him, "If you don't like me, why did you marry me?"

But she couldn't say it, she was afraid that the answer would be what she thought in her heart, and she would be heartbroken.

Zhou Cechen gently wiped the corner of Shen Lilan's eyes, and said in a hoarse voice, "How dare I, a mayfly, dream of spring flowers."

Shen Lilan looked at him.

"I……"

Shen Lilan covered Zhou Cechen's mouth and said, "Stop talking."

They are not gods and cannot see into each other's thoughts.

Maybe this is fate.

Zhou Cechen took Shen Lilan into his arms and said, "You know, I almost couldn't control myself that night."

A misunderstanding is resolved, and two hearts are brought closer.

"Where did you go today? Are you feeling unwell?" Zhou Cechen asked her.

"I went to see a play." Shen Lilan told him half the truth.

"If you don't stay with me in the mansion, it will be boring for me to stay alone in the mansion. I can only go out and watch a play."

"It is my fault."

Shen Lilan looked at him and asked, "What did you find out today?"

"Wansanglou may be the main place where those people trade bribes and sell illegal salt."

Shen Lilan nodded.

"You've told me everything about state affairs. Aren't you afraid that I might have selfish motives?" Shen Lilan looked at him with a smile.

"At least I still have value to you." Zhou Cechen said.

Shen Yanlan said seriously: "Don't worry, I won't do anything to hurt you."

Zhou Cechen carried Shen Lilan down from the table, and Shen Lilan supported him to prevent him from falling.

"It will be New Year's Day in a few days. There will be a banquet in the palace. You and I will go then."

"Okay." Shen Lilan nodded.

Ever since Shen Yanlan moved to Liyuan Pavilion because of the injury on his palm, he has never returned to Xiaolanxuan.

The two of them ate and slept together, just like an ordinary couple.

The next day, when Shen Yanlan came out of the warm room, he saw an old woman waiting at the door.

"This is..." Shen Lilan looked at the woman.

"Princess, this is the prince's nurse when he was young. She has been living in Jiangnan since she left the palace. Now the prince has summoned her to take care of you and take care of your health."

"Greetings, Her Majesty the Princess." The woman knelt down and greeted Shen Lilan.

"Oh, Ma'am, there's no need to do this. You're making things difficult for me." Shen Xilan quickly ordered Chao Yun to help her up.

"I didn't know that Madam came today and neglected you." Shen Lilan said.

"My surname is Kong, you can just call me Madam Kong."

Madam Kong waved her hand and said, "I never care about those empty theories. What matters most right now is to serve the Madam well."

Shen Yanlan: "Madam, just take care of yourself and your living conditions in the mansion. How can I teach you to serve me?"

Shen Yanlan said and walked towards the dining hall with Madam Kong. "The prince has an errand to do today, so let me entertain Madam well."

"I am old, and I am not a princess. There is no need to do this."

Shen Xilan knew nothing about Zhou Cechen's childhood, but she knew that Nanny Kong was the very little warmth Zhou Cechen could feel in the palace.

Although she was just a wet nurse, Zhou Cechen regarded her as an elder, so she naturally had to respect her.

After breakfast, Shen Yanlan took Nanny Kong for a walk around the palace to familiarize themselves with the environment.

"This palace is really big." Madam Kong couldn't help but sigh.

The vast area of ​​Prince Ding'an's Mansion is admired by the whole of Yanjing.

When Shen Lilan had just married Zhou Cechen, she was not familiar with the palace and got lost once. Whenever she thinks of that time, Shen Lilan feels embarrassed.

She had broken into the woods behind the yard at that time, and was unable to get out, but she happened to run into Zhou Cechen who was soaking in the hot spring pool.

That was the first time she saw Zhou Cechen without clothes, but she didn't dare to look at his great figure.

Thinking back, Shen Yanlan smiled and said, "This is all earned by the prince himself."

"I am so happy to see that the prince has been alone for so many years and now he finally has a home."

Shen Lilan said: "Yes, I finally have a home."

"Mammy, can you tell me what the prince likes on a daily basis?" In fact, most of the time, Shen Xilan couldn't figure him out. He always ate according to her own taste. Zhou Cechen would order the kitchen to prepare whatever she liked, and never considered himself.

Madam Kong looked at Shen Lilan and smiled, "He must have bothered the queen again. He always looks like he is not interested in anything. He had such a stern face when he was a child. It would be better if people could not tell what he likes or dislikes."

Shen Lilan wanted to laugh when she thought of Zhou Cechen's quiet and serious appearance as a child.

"He is the most picky eater," said Madam Kong.

“He doesn’t like spicy food or sweet food.”

Madam Kong thought for a moment and then said, "By the way, the prince hates all kinds of dairy products the most. He won't even touch cheese or milk cakes."

"When I was in the palace, whenever I made any pastries made with milk, the prince would definitely stay away from me. Although he never expressed his disgust, it was so obvious that anyone could see it."

Shen Lilan stood there in a daze. He... didn't like cheese.

……

After returning from the Dali Temple, Zhou Cechen went straight to Liyuan Pavilion, his black cloak fluttering with his footsteps.

"Your Highness, Nanny Kong has arrived at the mansion." Butler Lin reported to Zhou Cechen.

"it is good."

"The princess has prepared dinner and is waiting for the prince." Butler Lin said again.

Zhou Cechen walked along the corridor towards the dining room.

In the dining hall of Li Garden, Shen Xilan stared at the plates of prepared food in a trance. She didn't even notice that Zhou Cechen had walked up to her.

"Are you hungry?" Zhou Cechen asked.

When Shen Xilan heard Zhou Cechen's voice, he realized that Zhou Cechen had walked to his side.

Shen Lilan shook his head.

Zhou Cechen touched the top of her head and said, "I will be busy these few days, you don't have to wait for me for dinner."
