After swapping bodies with the princess, this prince slaughtered his way through the court and becam

In modern terms, "对食" means "to find a partner".

The palace eunuchs were incompetent, and the palace maids had no one to rely on.

Therefore, some eunuchs and palace maids who took a liking to each other would form a "couple" relationship to find solace.

But this little Fuzi looks no more than twelve or thirteen years old, while Granny Li is old enough to be little Fuzi's grandmother!

The surrounding palace maids were also taken aback at first.

They always thought that Xiao Fuzi and Granny Li were related.

Given the significant age difference, perhaps he's a kid from their hometown.

To everyone's surprise, the two actually became a couple!

This is more than just a calf eating old grass; it's like a calf gnawing on withered tree roots!

Ren Jingxing had no idea that Li Mama, who beat people every day, actually had a taste for this.

The palace maids washing clothes nearby couldn't help but chuckle softly.

They couldn't imagine what kind of expression Li Mama, who was like Abbess Miejue, had when she was whispering sweet nothings to Xiao Fuzi.

The little maid, Zhu'er, blushed deeply.

That old nanny Li was actually a lewd old woman!

The young eunuch, Xiao Fuzi, blushed and broke out in a sweat when he heard the snickers of those around him.

He also understood that this was not something to be proud of.

"Lift your head up!"

At Ren Jingxing's command, Xiao Fuzi immediately craned her neck and raised her head.

Ren Jingxing gripped Xiao Fuzi's neck with his left hand, applying slight pressure.

The little eunuch was so frightened that he dared not breathe loudly, and his legs trembled with fear.

"From now on, deliver meals directly to my room."

Xiao Fuzi was so frightened that her voice trembled, and she quickly agreed.

"Don't you dare touch me in my food, or... I'll kill you!"

Xiao Fuzi nodded hurriedly, and was so frightened that tears streamed down her face.

He was still young in the Imperial Kitchen, so no one bullied him.

Outside, she had the gentle care of Granny Li to look after her.

Having been in the palace for two years, he had never seen such a scene before, and was so frightened by Ren Jingxing that he wet his pants.

Only after that did he realize that the noble people in the palace were not people he could afford to offend, and that he had to serve them with utmost care!

After Ren Jingxing finished speaking, he patted Xiao Fuzi's face with his right hand, and then left with the lunchbox.

After Ren Jingxing left, Xiao Fuzi collapsed to her knees, panting heavily.

Even though Ren Jingxing hadn't used any force, Xiao Fuzi looked like she was almost strangled to death.

Just as Ren Jingxing was about to leave, a female scholar with a rather ordinary appearance caught up with him:

"Your Highness, the county examination is approaching. These are some excellent essays from the previous examination. Would you like to take them to study?"

Ren Jingxing never even considered participating in the imperial examinations, and Princess Wei Xinyan had no chance to participate either.

So he simply waved his hand:

"What would I do with this? I won't need it anyway."

Then he turned around gracefully, took Pearl's little hand, and left.

The female scholar was surprised that the princess would refuse outright.

She stared blankly at their departing figures, and couldn't help but murmur:

"The princess has really changed..."

The little maid Zhu'er beside her also looked at her princess with a puzzled expression.

She felt that the princess was changing more and more.

In the past, princesses would stay up all night to read and study excellent articles.

Now they simply stop watching altogether.

Back at Hanlu Palace, Wei Xinyan opened her lunchbox and found that her meal was not exactly lavish.

It's just two dishes and a soup, one meat dish and one vegetable dish, plus a bowl of rice.

Pearl's meal consisted of only one dish of rice and one side dish, with the side dish being a simple vegetarian dish.

When Pearl saw it, she exclaimed in surprise:

Wow! The princess's meal is so lavish!

Pearl's cooking is so good too!

That damned Granny Li ate all of the princess's food, leaving us only with leftovers!

"Waaaaah, the princess is so pitiful!"

Zhu'er began to feel sorry for Wei Xinyan from the past again.

This can be called a feast?

Ren Jingxing sighed at Wei Xinyan's status, then patted Zhu'er's head.

"Since you find this feast lavish, then please eat with me!"

After hearing this, Pearl swallowed hard and then shook her head vigorously.

"No, no, the princess's food is for the princess, and the servant's food is for the servant."

This is not to be overstepped!

Ren Jingxing pulled Zhu'er directly into his arms. With the soft jade in his embrace, Ren Jingxing forced a stern expression:

"So you want me to feed you?"

Pearl's face immediately turned red:

"This servant dares not, this servant will eat it myself..."

Even though they were both women, Zhu'er felt something was off, and her heart pounded.

"The princess is acting strange again..." Pearl muttered softly.

After the two finished their meal, Zhu'er brought up the relationship between Granny Li and Consort Ming.

The old Li Mama used to be a laundry maid for Consort Ming.

Because of her excellent washing skills, Li Mama was favored by Consort Ming, which led to her being placed in charge of the laundry department.

"Granny Li and Consort Ming have a good relationship, so she will definitely complain to Consort Ming!"

Moreover, Consort Ming didn't like the princess in the first place...

Consort Ming was a concubine of the Emperor of Wei, and her rank was Shujie.

Although her rank was not high, she was still favored and was definitely not someone a fallen princess could handle.

To deal with Consort Ming, we must rely on external forces.

At this moment, Ren Jingxing remembered the jade pendant from the book "The Making of an Empress".

He could use this jade pendant to get help from the Empress.

The Empress of Great Wei is currently out of favor, a fact even he, as the heir outside the palace, knows.

His Majesty seems to have always wanted to establish another empress, which is one of the reasons why the concubines in the Great Wei harem are so rebellious.

Without a strong matriarch to restrain the harem, the concubines would naturally cause trouble.

Ren Jingxing then looked up at Zhu'er and asked:

"Pearl, you must be familiar with all the secrets and rumors in the palace, including the gossip about the Empress, right?"

He needed to use these rumors to determine the Queen's condition.

When Pearl heard that her princess wanted to know these gossips, her eyes immediately lit up:

"Pearl had wanted to tell the princess before, but the princess never wanted to hear it!"

Ren Jingxing directly took Zhu'er's hand, put his arm around her waist, and sat her on the edge of the bed:

"Come, come, sit on the edge of the bed and tell me, I want to hear it again now."

Ren Jingxing's frivolous behavior caused the little maid Zhu'er's face to turn red again.

The princess has started again...

……

The residence of the Marquis of Xuanwei.

After struggling to use the toilet, Wei Xinyan returned to his study to read.

She suppressed her shyness and tried her best to shift her attention to the books.

So that's what men are like... Ugh!

You also need to use your hands...

Wei Xinyan quickly shook her head and patted her face with both hands, forcibly driving the embarrassing image and sensation out of her mind.

Yue'er, who was standing aside serving her young master, was stunned.

What happened to the young master? Why did he come out of the latrine like this?

I almost washed my hands raw just going to the toilet.

I have a feeling that the young master is acting strange today.

After the court session, Marquis Xuanwei brought a schoolteacher dressed in a blue robe with a fair complexion and no beard to the main hall of the Marquis's residence.

The gentleman followed behind the Marquis, muttering:

"My lord, the young master's reputation for being a dissolute playboy is well-known. Are you sure he's genuinely studying hard and not just deceiving you?"

Actually, this gentleman was unwilling to teach Ren Jingxing.

If word gets out that Ren Jingxing is his student, his reputation will be ruined.

How will I recruit students in the future if I'm using Professor Ren Jingxing's name?

But there was nothing they could do; the Marquis had given them far too much.

Whether you take on apprentices or not, you'll get paid the moment you meet them!

But meeting in person is one thing, taking on an apprentice is another.

So he quickly added from the back:

"My lord, we agreed beforehand that after meeting the young master, we would first test him."

If the crown prince fails the teaching test, it's useless no matter how hard he studies.

There's less than a month left until the county-level examination!
