Having heard what was said, Xiao Yi Chen raised his head to look at Chi Feng, then he fell into contemplation, Ji Ling Xue, are you really stupid or pretending to be?
In Xiao Yi Chen's memories, when Ji Ling Xue was young she was lovable and happy, with a chubby round face, and could cook very well, to the extent that he would always go visit to freeload for food.
That year imperial grandmother told him, Ji Ling Xue was his predestined wife, he needed to cherish her dearly and look after her, at that time he was only around eight years old, he couldn't understand the meaning of the word `predestined` which came from his grandmother's mouth, he felt Ji Ling Xue being by his side was good, there was a lot of tasty things to eat, the food she made was more novel and delicious than the imperial kitchen.
Sadly, from an unknown time, Ji Ling Xue became different, when she was ten years old, Ji Ling Xue lost her mother, her character changed, she was no longer cheerful and lively, she became lifeless.
It seems from then on, Ji Ling Xue became foolish, her eyes no longer held expression or brightness, she could no longer pick up a knife to cook and research cooking.
The year he married her, she had just reached the marriageable age of twelve years old, wearing the red suit, he felt rather at a loss.
On the day of the wedding he did not lift up Ji Ling Xue's bridal veil, in his mind echoed Ji Yu Qing's words, she said Ji Ling Xue was mad and foolish, he would definitely lose face marrying her, at that time everyone would mock him, the formidable and important prince Chen married a foolish princess.

However his marriage to Ji Ling Xue was dictated by an imperial edict, he also had to marry Ji Ling Xue to secure his power in the court, gaining imperial grandmother's men as his own, it was only because of this, his elder brother would not be afraid that he would excessive military power and harm his position, and would want to get rid of him quickly.
Since entering the prince's residence JI Ling Xue had been hidden by him, to outsiders he told them Ji Ling Xue was very unwell and was not convenient to see people, refusing anyone who wanted to visit, including his imperial grandmother.
Until the night of his and Ji Yu Qing's wedding, he felt Ji Ling Xue wasn't the fool he knew...
As for Ji Yu Qing, Xiao Yi Chen revealed a bitter smile, imperial marriages were always for benefits, he has never married because of love, this was probably the burden of being part of an imperial family, with enviable status and power, there was always going to be something that he would lose.
Chi Feng seeing Xiao Yi Chen chain of thought floating away, couldn't help wave his hand in front of his face.
Xiao Yi Chen returned to his senses: "Continue to watch her, promptly report her whereabouts."
Although Chi Feng did not understand why Xiao Yi Chen suddenly cared about this foolish princess, but as always he complied with his order.
Chi Feng thought about it, it was best to tell him the news he received this morning, "Master, today the shopkeeper of Wangshan restaurant has announced, the treasured calligraphy scroll you left on the wall has vanished without a trace."
"What?!" Xiao Yi Chen slapped the table and stood up, his expression filled with shock.
Chi Feng seeing Xiao Yi Chen's complexion said: "Maybe someone deliberately targeted you..."
They didn't have enough power so they didn't dare face you head on, so deliberately behind your bank they destroyed your treasured calligraphy out of anger. These words Chi Feng said to himself in his mind, not daring to say them aloud, afraid to bring disaster upon himself.
"Go take a look." Xiao Yi Chen flung his sleeves turning to walk out.
Wangshan restaurant was closed today for business, making the people who came and went gesticulate, the shopkeeper wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, while smiling at Xiao Yi Chen as he led him to the second floor.
This was the first time such a strange thing happened in Wangshan restaurant, a robber entered last night, they did not steal money from the counter, but plundered the treasured scroll left on the wall of the second floor by prince Chen.
The shopkeeper couldn't understand even after racking his brain, why would his little business cause such an incident, would prince Chen cut of his flesh as punishment in a fit of anger?
