Blurb:
After transmigrating into a book, Yu Sheng, an heir to the imperial chef's legacy, becomes a cannon-fodder palace maid given by the new emperor to the deposed crown prince. Her original self was ordered to poison him on the road to exile, and after he saw through her, she was tortured to death by a thousand cuts.
Yu Sheng looks at the poison in her hand, which she hasn't had a chance to put away, then at the deposed crown prince's sinister gaze.
I'm done for. Heaven wants me dead.
Yu Sheng swallows nervously, her mind racing.
But in that moment, she can't think of anything. As the sword is about to fall, inspiration strikes. Yu Sheng holds up the beggar's chicken she has just roasted and asks timidly, "Y-Your Highness, w-would you like some chicken?"
After a palace coup, the refined and noble Crown Prince Pei Shilang falls from the heavens into the abyss, his temperament changing drastically as he grows unruly and violent.
Until a timid little face appears in his line of sight. "If you don't like that, I can also make steamed lamb, steamed bear paw, steamed venison tail, roast duck..."
He furrows his brows and looks down at the little palace maid, who is nothing like her usual self, and the golden-red roast chicken in her hands, fragrant and mouthwatering.
Maybe he can wait a little before killing her?
Ruthless, unhinged deposed crown prince x sweet and kind, beauty-loving little chef with a flair for drama
