Chapter 1129: The Princess Consort Whose Memories Were Altered (4)

Every smile, every frown, even the way she walked—it was exactly the same as the original Tang Guo.

Host's acting skills have improved again, the system thought.

Host, what's the plan this time? he asked weakly.

“This one is called, 'What Is Lost Is the Most Beautiful.' I'm going to make Shangguan Jing grow accustomed to my existence. I'll carve my habits and influence into every corner of his life.”

“When the day comes that he sends me away, he'll realize that nothing feels right anymore.”

“It's cliché, but scumbags always fall for this kind of thing.”

The system chuckled inwardly. Indeed, wasn't that exactly the weakness of scumbags?

Then what about Tang Jiao?

Tang Guo paused for a moment. “I'll ask Big Brother Chixiao from the group for a realistic puppet. I'll leave the puppet with Shangguan Jing and let him spend the rest of his life hugging it.”

“As for the real Tang Jiao, send her away. She's too innocent to outplay those two men. In this imperial, patriarchal society, they'll only ruin her.”

“Since she likes a carefree life, let's simply grant her wish.”

“Leave this place to me. I'll play with them slowly.” Tang Guo chuckled softly, causing the system to shiver.

Play with them slowly?

Those two men were doomed.

He estimated they wouldn't even last two years before everything fell apart.

Soon after, the system witnessed Tang Guo entering the kitchen with his own eyes.

Host was really committing this time—going all in. She was actually cooking herself.

After preparing several dishes, Tang Guo didn't deliver them personally. Instead, she instructed the servants to place them on Shangguan Jing's table at noon.

When Shangguan Jing noticed that the dishes were somewhat different from usual, he didn't ask any questions. He simply assumed the cook had created some new recipes.

But after the first bite, he was genuinely astonished.

This definitely wasn't the old cook.

Had a new chef arrived?

He took several more bites. The gloomy mood he'd been in because he couldn't marry the woman he loved instantly vanished. Laughing lightly, he said, “Reward today's cook.”

The servants exchanged awkward glances, unsure what to say. The steward, however, merely smiled and answered, “Yes, Your Highness.”

After interacting with the new Princess Consort earlier, the steward had concluded that the eldest daughter of Minister Tang truly deserved the title of noble lady. Everything she did was meticulous and proper.

She had personally prepared food for the prince and had even instructed him not to tell the prince that she was the one who had made it.

As Shangguan Jing's confidant, the steward naturally knew why his master's mood had been poor. Since the new Princess Consort wasn't trying to use delicious food to seek favor, he found her behavior rather admirable.

If he told the prince now that the dishes had been prepared by the new Princess Consort, Shangguan Jing would certainly fly into a rage, and she might never recover from his displeasure.

In the steward's opinion, the new Princess Consort was truly a fine woman. She treated him with great respect as well, so he was more than willing to do her this favor.

Watching Shangguan Jing's satisfied expression, the steward couldn't help smiling happily.

With such an excellent new Princess Consort, perhaps in time His Highness would forget Consort Jiao and enjoy a harmonious life with his wife.

Both lunch and dinner were personally prepared by Tang Guo and delivered to Shangguan Jing by the steward and his attendants.

After several days, Shangguan Jing had already grown accustomed to the presence of this excellent new cook.

Almost every day after finishing his meal, he would utter the same words.

“Reward the cook.”

Seeing that Tang Guo wasn't anxious in the slightest, the steward admired her even more.

Then he discovered that the new Princess Consort was also making clothes, sachets, and various personal items for the prince.

His astonishment only deepened.

This Princess Consort was truly virtuous beyond compare.
