"You are done so soon?"

After they sat down, Yan Shengrui poured a cup of tea and handed it Ling Jingxuan, and Ling Jingxuan received it and drank it off, and only said after making a long sigh with relief, “Hmm, the ingredients are all prepared, and the bone soup is ready-made, so I only need to stir-fry those ingredients and add some water, the thing left is decoct it slowly until the taste of those ingredients is all boiled into the soup, and then when we eat the hot pot at noon, we can add some soup into it.”

As for the clear soup seasoning was much simpler-directly use the thick bone soup, the stir-fried ingredients and the required proportion and things that needed to paid attention to, he had all told the chefs. As for the real taste, they’d only know after noon.

"Hehe...you can always come up with some strange food."

And because of this, they also glutted their mouths. Every time there was new food, they’d be the first to have a taste of it, and then it’d be launched in Xinyuan restaurant. So one could say they were earlier than any customer to taste the delicious food.

"It's not that the food I come up with is weird or strange, it’s just you lack of imagination and creation.”

Ling Jingxuan made a grin. He dare not take the credit to himself, those dishes were the representative dishes of all provinces of Huaxia Kingdom, any transmigrator knew that he just took advantage of his transmigration from the future and did some ‘plagiarizing’ job.

“Really? Brother Zhang, then you should work harder.”

Yan Shengrui raised his eyebrows and looked at Shopkeeper Zhang meaningfully.

Shopkeeper Zhang who was named by him trembled, "Yes, sure…"

Since he knew that was the famous Prince Sheng, Shopkeeper Zhang had never had the guts even to talk to him, he even dare not look at him. Now Yan Shengrui called him Brother Zhang, which made his heart skip a beat. But the strange thing was apparently Jingxuan was the Crown Princess Sheng, he didn’t have that kind of scared feeling of him at all.

Sensing his awe, Ling Jingxuan threw a hard stare at Yan Shengrui, like he was saying ‘See? This is the embarrassing place after revealing who you are!’ The latter innocently touched his own nose. He had never meant to reveal his identity. It was all Six(Liu)’s fault! Next time, he’d definitely lesson him!

“Aachoo!”

In the distant imperial capital, Zeng Shaoqing who was sitting in the carriage with Chu Yunhan and his son heading to the imperial palace suddenly had a tremendous sneeze, which frightened that pair of father and son. Since they entered the scope of the capital, they had lifted their heart to the throat. Any tiny sound would alert them. Apparently no one knew about the abolished empress missing thing, but all the way, they heard people say that the seventh prince lost his mother, the abolished empress pitied him and begged the emperor to allow them to go to Cangzhou for self-examination. And the emperor was benevolent enough and approved of it. So, this time, instead of sneaking back quietly, even the personal eunuch of His Majesty came to greet them. Soon they’d see the emperor. Live or die all depended on this time…

"Sorry, don't be nervous. Shengrui has made all the arrangements. Since that man in the palace has sent Eunuch Zhao to pick you up, he must have tacitly accepted this matter. Yunhan, don’t worry. I won’t let them touch you.”

Keenly sensing their strangeness, Zeng Shaoqing hurriedly comforted him. In fact, not just the rumors he had asked his people to spread all the way, he even had already planted his eyes and his shadow guards in the empress’ Fuqing Palace. They’d not only protect them, but also watch others’ movements closely, and secretly killed those eyes planted in Fuqing palace by Noble Consort Xiao and other concubines, and completely took Fuqing Palace under their control.

"Hmm, I know, it's just..."ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

Lifting the curtain to look at the palace getting nearer and nearer, Chu Yunhan looked a bit gloomy, in those eyes were untold bitterness and sadness. That was the place he didn’t want to stay most, but also the place he had to stay in, be it for Seven, or Jingxuan and others, or even himself. He had to end everything himself.

Looking at his sad side face, Zeng Shaoqing unconsciously revealed a sorry expression, and Yan Xiaoming on the side took everything in the eyes and in the heart. Whatever plan he had, before seizing that position every prince was drooling of, everything was but an empty talk. Having stayed in Yuehua Manor for two months, he had already learned to hide his feelings, totally unlike before.

"My lady, my prince, Lord Six, the mama in charge from the Noble Consort Xiao’s place is here."

As the carriage drove to the palace gate, outside came the shrill and sissy voice of Eunuch Zhao, Chu Yunhan slightly frowned. As he was ready to get up, Zeng Shaoqing pressed on his shoulder, passed over him to brush open the curtain, "Where does that old witch come from? How dare she stand in my way?”

That evil but handsome face was stained with frost-like thing. And those few maids who came with the mama all subconsciously shrank their necks. Heaven knows they were most afraid of him and Prince Sheng, not only because one of them had power while the other was extremely wealthy, but more of those big and small ‘legends’ they had left in the capital since they were little. Someone with no balls even dare not adore them.

"My greetings, Lord Six. My lady sent me here to greet ‘Her Empress’, it’s not that I am here standing in your way. Hope you could understand.”

The deliberately stressed ‘Her Empress’ was filled with undisguised sarcasm. Although the mama looked with great respect, actually her tone didn’t show the slightest content of respect.

Playing tricks with him at this level?

Zeng Shaoqing raised his eyebrows, and his lips evoked an unscrupulous smile, "Which lady? I was ordered to escort Her Empress and the seventh prince back. Anyone stand in the way, die!”

ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom Even the old mama, who had always had a good opinion of herself, could not help making a shudder, then hurriedly knelt down and said, "Lord Six, please show mercy! I’m the mama in charge from Noble Consort Xiao’s palace.”

Thinking that after saying the big name of Noble Consort Xiao who was the most promising to become the new empress, Zeng Shaoqing wouldn’t dare act like now, but…

"Someone! Give each of them fifty heavy spanks! If anyone dies, the blame is on me!”

She obviously underestimated Zeng Shaoqing's unscrupulousness. As the most favored son of first duke, how could he allow an old maid to affront him?

"Yes."
