Chapter 1008: 1008 Chen Ning thought that Mo Chuan would be back soon, so she changed into a simple set of clothes in the room . She took off the complicated and heavy empress robes and felt her body becoming much lighter . Even after she waited for a while, Mo Chuan didn't come back . She thought that he must have gone to the royal study to take care of some business . Being busy with the wedding and coronation, as well as her being poisoned, Mo Chuan hadn't gotten a good rest lately . He hadn't even taken a step into the royal study, so there must be many matters that had acc.u.mulated over this period . She had nothing to do, so she remembered Mo Chuan telling her to cultivate her inner strength . She sat down cross legged and practiced her inner strength according to the technique Mo Chuan taught her . But after breathing for a while, she felt her eyelids become heavy and she was filled with tiredness . Without knowing it, she fell over on the couch and fell into a deep sleep . This feeling lasted all the way until it became dark . When she opened her eyes, she found the dusk sunlight pouring into her room and everything was blurry .

There wasn't a single candle in the room and it was completely empty . She saw that she was covered with a thin blanket . It must have been Xiao Ru who quietly came in while she was sleeping, causing her heart to fill with warmth . “Xiao Ru!” She shouted . “Young miss, you're awake?” Xiao Ru immediately came in . She had been guarding outside the door, not daring to go in and disturb Chen Ning's rest . “Un, is Mo Chuan back?” She asked . Xiao Ru shook her head, “The emperor isn't back yet . ”

She lit the candles and the room began to light up, as the warm candlelight bathed the room . “Younn miss, are you hungry? This servant will immediately bring some food in . ” Xiao Ru said this and then said in an embarra.s.sed voice, “Then, should this servant call you empress from now on?”Chen Ning pinched her nose with a smile and said, “Whatever you want to call me is up to you . ”“Then this servant will call you young miss like before . Calling you empress sounds ugly . ” Xiao Ru stuck out her tongue and walked out . After a while, she came back with a tray and there were four different maids following behind her with boxes of food in their hands . Xiao Ru directed the maids on placing the dishes on the table and the fragrance of the food spread out . Chen Ning was indeed hungry and she became even more hungry smelling this food . The dishes were finely made, it could be said that it was the work of the finest chefs of the royal kitchen . It was filled with colour and flavour . There were congees and sweets, fruits and candied treats, it was all very rich . Chen Ning looked over the dishes and she couldn't help knitting her brows . “Young miss, do you not like the taste of these dishes?” Xiao Ru asked in a worried voice . “No, it's that there's too much . How could I finish all this food by myself? Is there always this much food with each meal in the palace?”Chen Ning looked up at a maid beside her . The maid respectfully replied, “Reporting to the empress, this was sent by the royal kitchen according to the example . ”“Example?” Chen Ning thought about it and understood . “From this day forth, my Guan Yu Palace only needs two dishes per meal . Give the order to the royal palace, this is the new example . ”“Yes, empress . ” The maid replied . “I can't finish all these dishes, I only need four of them . You can eat the rest of them . ” Chen Ning said . The maids didn't dare move, like she didn't dare believe Chen Ning's words .
