Original subtitles

Ha, don't rush, don't rush,

everyone gets a share

. Shouldn't she be waiting to die in the Cold Palace?

How come she's selling pig's trotters here?

Madam , do you want me to go

? No, I'll go. Just call the Prefect of the Capital

and say someone is operating without a license

and

disrupting the market.

Your Highness, should I remind the Princess?

No rush,

make way, make way.

Who's setting up a stall here?

Sir, this is just a small business.

Come on, pack up your stall

! Hey, hey,

why is this table so heavy?

Is this the offering table from the local temple?

How did it end up here?

I'll borrow it

for a bit and return it later

. Oh, isn't this our Marquis's illegitimate daughter who got married?

How come she can't stay here with Your Highness and has

come out to sell pig's trotters

? Madam,

you can't even greet your stepmother.

It seems you've forgotten the rules after staying here for a few days.

Your Highness , go check

who's on duty at the Prefect of the Capital today.

I'll pack up now

. Oh,

my Princess is setting up a stall in my territory.

Who gives her permission?

Madam Su Qinghe, I'm calling you over

. What

are you dawdling for? You have something to say to me?

That cold-faced demon Lu Chengye, who

's rumored to have cursed three fiancées,

Your Highness , the Emperor's decree of marriage has been handed to our family. We

have to marry a daughter to him.

I'm not marrying

him! It's torture!

Don't worry, how could your mother bear to let you go to

Su Qinghe? You go,

but

your mother is still eating and living in my mansion.

If you're sensible,

just obediently agree.

Go! Go! No matter how cold he

is

, you'll be there to deal with him. Hmph!

Our prince accepted this marriage

just to appease the Emperor

! You're on your own!

Ah

, this is

...

Patrol!

No loitering allowed! There's always a way

out ! Brother Dog Hole, we'll rely on you from now on.

You're in charge of getting to the outside,

and I'll take care of the work.

Let's work together happily

! Miss,

why did you carry it all back yourself?

We used all our money to buy pig's trotters!

Hmph,

look!

This smells so good! Can I have another bite?

This is my exclusive recipe .

I'll go out and set up a stall.

You stay here and keep watch. If you

see any guards, bark like a dog.

Got it

? I know! Be careful!

Can we make this dog hole bigger?

Hey,

girl, where did this stone table

come from? It's from that altar over there.

I borrowed it.

You borrowed it from the Earth God!

He didn't say anything, which meant he agreed.

Secret braised pig's trotters.

If you miss it today, you'll have to wait three days

to eat it. It'll be a real loss to heaven!

What's this smell? It smells so good!

Sir , try

this!

One bite and

you'll

be hooked.

The more you eat, the more fragrant it becomes

. Eat my pig's trotters and you 'll be rich in advance!

Old man, give me two bowls! Two gentlemen, that's 20 coins in total

. How about it? You're doing me a favor,

hehehe . Oh,

newbie,

it smells so good! Give me two, sir!

Line up ,

line up! I still need to collect your protection money!

Hey, you little lady

, hahaha!

Put me down!

Put me down! You

give the money to the old man

!

Hahaha!

Sorry

to bother everyone.

Where were we? "Get

rich in advance

, ma'am!" Once we've earned enough money,

we'll leave this awful place together.

Sold out!

Your business is too good!

I haven't finished eating yet!

I haven't bought any! Are you

coming tomorrow?

I'm back again! Can you

give me some face

?

No way,

it's stuck again! What's that?

Your Highness, judging from the figure, it seems to be the new princess! Your Highness,

the new princess is sneaking through a dog hole in the middle of the night

!

Oh no! Achoo! Can

you smell that?

It

smells so good!

It seems to be coming from over there

. Come on!

Looking for that girl who sells braised pig's trotters? She just left.

She comes every day.

Oh dear, today was

the first time she sold out in

one go! That girl is incredibly strong. She

even helped me just now.

Your Highness actually laughed!

What did you say?

Uh, no, nothing. Your Highness

, you've already drunk three pots of tea. Shut

up!

Selling

meat! Selling meat!

He's here

! Hahaha!

My princess is setting up a stall in my territory.

Whose permission do I need

?

Your Highness,

please forgive me. I was blind and didn't recognize

you. Get lost

! Hey, hey, hey,

Your Highness,

it's all a misunderstanding.

Since you've already married me,

you don't need to worry

about me. Yes, yes, yes,

I'll take my leave.

Thank you.

I went out of the capital on business a few days ago

and only returned last night.

I didn't know you were here.

The servants in the manor treated you poorly and were rude.

It's alright. I can get by anywhere

. "Try

it,

don't worry, it's not poisonous.

I've already sold several.

Hmm,

how is it

?

It's acceptable

. Your Highness couldn't resist the smell last night.

Heh

heh, it's good that Your Highness likes it.

Since Your Highness is here,

fellow neighbors

, we need to talk about this.

This girl took up space without warning.

I tolerated it, but now that her braised food is out there

, my pancakes aren't selling

, no one's buying Old Zhang's braised meat

, and nobody's watching Old Li's grocery stall.

Don't worry, I can handle it myself

. Then tell me how to resolve this.

Either pay the stall fee

, or you can move to the end of the street. Ca

n't decide?

Then I'll help you choose.

You gentlemen are right.

Hmm

, I didn't think it through and

broke the rules.

This is just a small token of my appreciation. Try it first.

I have an idea

. What do you all think?

Okay

, hmm,

you three..." You've been setting up a stall on this street for years,

how much can you earn a day?

You ask? At

most,

one person might only earn around a hundred coins.

My braised food takes an hour from start to finish, and

I can make three batches a night

. In three days, I can earn a few taels of silver.

But relying solely on myself, my earnings are limited.

You have a ready-made stove and work surface.

Baking flatbread in the morning

is less profitable than steaming buns and making noodles in the afternoon

to sell with my braised food.

We'll split the profits.

You have a reliable source ;

I need a large quantity of pig's trotters,

so you can negotiate a lower price

than I would myself. We'll split the savings

. You have ready-made shelves and packaging.

If you want to take my braised food home as a gift,

all you need is your skill.

If I set up my stall here for a day,

you'll earn more than just a few hundred coins.

If you disagree,

I'll move to the end of the alley so

I won't cause you any trouble.

No, no, no,

who said they disagree?

We're just thinking about it.

Should I move it then?

What's

there to move? If I

move it, who's going to give me steamed buns ? Hahaha,

Your Highness, are you planning to help me attract business?

I'm thinking about something.

What is it ?

Don't sleep in the side courtyard tonight

.

You'll stay in the east courtyard,

which is closer to the kitchen and has better ventilation.

It's convenient for you to make braised dishes. Your

Highness had someone clean it overnight,

even the blankets were freshly aired.

Hmph

, thank you very much, Your Highness.

Where are you going

? I 'm used to crawling through dog holes.

Follow me through the main gate.

I

'm a princess,

Miss. This kitchen is really grand.

Your Highness, I want to tell you

something. I'm just a concubine's daughter

... I'm looked down upon from the start.

If I rely on the prince to turn things around,

I'll only be gossiped about more.

I want to prove that

I can make a living on my own.

Also, I don't want to cause the prince any trouble.

I don't want to be his weakness.

Well, I'll say a few words too.

You say you don't want to rely on me?

Fine, but if you can't handle it, don't force yourself.

You say you don't want to cause me any trouble?

I don't need you to worry about me. I've

been in court for ten years;

it's not that easy.

As for a weakness,

I'll handle it myself.

The legendary cold-faced prince

doesn't seem so cold after all.

What did you say? Tomorrow

, come back to the Marquis's

residence with me

. Oh, the return visit

! Your Highness, what brings you here?

You're not used to living in the

Prince's residence and have

come back to complain?

Hmph , how are you , Madam?

I brought some braised food for my wife on her return visit, but the strong smell of oil

is suffocating! Take it away!

My sister thinks the smell is too strong;

you can have it taken to the kitchen.

However, my sister's friend seems to really like it;

after buying it, she even asked if it could be delivered

. Alright, you didn't come back just to bring pig's trotters, did you

?

I want to see my mother

, but she's unwell

and

can't receive guests.

I'm her daughter, not a guest.

Hmph, you were just a substitute bride

; don't think you can put on airs

just because you've become a princess.

I said I can't see her, and

that's final. I

didn't come here to argue;

this is my sincerity.

I want to take my mother away.

One copper coin

or two?

You're trying to fob me off like a beggar?

Then name your price

: 3.0 00 taels, consider it compensation for all these years. Then

I'll tell everyone you're filial

and take her to enjoy a life of luxury.

My Marquis's mansion will also have a

good reputation. But words are meaningless, let's put it in writing.

Your wife

just said something,

the whole room of servants heard it.

If you go back on your word

, what will become of our reputation?

Bring paper and pen,

then I won't bother you

any longer, Madam. Miss, 3,000 taels

, how many pig trotters do we need to sell?

Money can be earned

, but we can't keep causing trouble for the Prince.

What do you want to do?

Setting up a stall isn't a long-term solution.

Let's start by finding a shop.

Good shops are ridiculously expensive!

Miss,

we've looked at 20 shops today.

If we go around again,

it'll be dark before we go back

.

This is too much! "Isn't this a bit off-center?

Won't there be bad people

? Look at

this place,

is it even okay? I'll

talk to the landlord tomorrow .

Miss, you want to rent this shop

?

How much? Why is it so cheap ?

The

previous tenant said there was crying at night,

which scared them away and they cancelled the lease.

I thought the crying was something else...

I can rent it

, but there's a condition...

Uh , if there's no crying,

then you're lying to me and you have to pay me back

. Miss, are you going to rent it or not?

Don't tease this old man. I

'll lower the price by two

ounces... Okay

, Miss, aren't you afraid of ghosts?

If a ghost dares to come,

I'll make him braise pig's trotters for me.

Anyway, he's got nothing better to do, so he can be

free labor.

Miss, I'm scared,

do you hear me?

Let's go

! No, let's go!" Go see who's crying.

There's a cellar

here, miss. It's dark down there, I'm scared. Okay

, take this and I'll go down.

I saw it was a cat .

Its leg was stuck in a crack in the wooden planks and it couldn't get out.

Meow.

So

the ghost is it. Yes, it

's stuck because it's too fat.

Meow

. Huh?

The previous tenant of this shop owed

Boss Zhao a huge debt and ran away.

It seems it wasn't because of the crying

that he moved out. Will we be chased by debt collectors?

Miss , was there any crying last night?

It was just a stray cat.

That's good. Brothers, let's get to work.

Here we come

! Miss,

what's our shop called? It

's called "The Cold Palace's Secret Recipe

"!

Ahhh, you're the new tenant of this shop. Yes,

you're

the money swindlers who owe me money.

Since you rented this shop, you have to manage it. Or else

... Hmph,

stop !

Hmm...

If you feel you've lost out,

go ask him for it. Coming to smash my shop

won't solve the problem.

What about my money?

Boss Zhao, you own a restaurant, right?

Juxianlou on East Street.

We can talk.

What

do we talk about? I'll provide you with a month's supply of braised food for free

. You can sell it in your restaurant

without spending a penny

and make a profit.

Free

! Just help me put up a sign

saying this braised food is a secret recipe from the Cold Palace.

Brother, it doesn't seem like a loss. Okay, let's

do it your way. We

need to buy all this stuff again.

Where are we going to get the money?

I said I'd provide the braised food for free

, not that I wouldn't let him lose money.

Boss Zhao owes me 3 stools and

8 bowls. One plate, six

earthenware pots, one

corner of the counter, one piece of

the door frame. It's crooked, add 200 coins

, that'll do, Miss.

Wasn't our door frame already crooked?

Does he know?

No. It's

delicious, come again next time.

Oh, so she stole my

business, the biggest delicatessen in the capital.

Boss, do you mean

to buy up all the pig trotters on the market?

I want to see how he does business without ingredients

. Hmph

! Hmph

! Hmph! Miss, is that the cat

that got stuck in the cellar before?

Oh, why are you back? You

used to run faster than anyone else! Okay, from now on

, you'll be called Zhaocai

and in charge of watching the shop.

The Princess Consort is in trouble.

What happened?

We can't get pig trotters;

the whole market has been swept clean.

I found out

who did it .

It's Boss Qian's

biggest deli, the one he owns.

He's trying to cut off your supply.

You'd better think of a way!

The pig trotters

are all booked.

Why don't you go look elsewhere,

Miss? Or maybe we should close down for now?

If we close down right after opening,

customers won't come back.

What will we sell

without pig trotters?

Pigs walk on hooves,

chickens walk on claws,

aren't they both meat?

It smells so good!

Try it,

Miss. This is delicious

. Let's go see

how miserable the Princess looks without pig trotters!

Hahaha!

Boss, how about we continue to monopolize chicken feet?

First, get rid of my whole warehouse of pig trotters.

I even dream about pig trotters chasing me.

Did you win?

Hmph,

Miss, we have 180 taels now. We're

still a long way from 3,000 taels.

But does that mean we don't have to compete with Boss Qian for pig trotters anymore?

Or should we continue to sell

the more he hoards?

The more he loses

, the less he'll be able to handle it,

and naturally he won't monopolize anymore.

What's wrong, Your Highness?

Today

is the Prince's birthday

.

But the Prince never celebrates it;

his mother died on this day.

Every year on this day,

he doesn't see anyone.

Miss, what are you going to do?

Make a bowl of noodles.

Doesn't the Prince not celebrate his birthday?

If you bring noodles over,

he won't be angry, will he?

It doesn't affect his

time alone.

It 's

so delicious!

Could you please

take it in for me

? Oh, Your Highness,

Your Highness, Your Highness made a bowl of noodles.

Bring it in

and tell him thank you,

but the noodles are

too salty.

What's wrong

? The Prince said the noodles were too salty.

Impossible, I tasted them three times.

Your Highness,

the Prince said something

else.

Oh no!

Please tell him

he's welcome. Also, thank you for the new courtyard.

Your Highness said he's welcome .

And thank you for the courtyard too.

Tell him he

's not grateful.

If he needs anything else, just let me know.

Yes, hey

, I've run around seven or eight times

already.

Can you two chat by yourselves

?

Hahaha,

okay, I won't let you run around anymore

.

Shuyao, you go ! Hahaha, just kidding! I

'm not chatting today, going to sleep.

Miss, Cui'er delivered the invitation . The Marquis's

mansion is holding a banquet

and ordered 50 servings of braised food platters.

They'll be delivered in three days. "

How can you still laugh

when I'm not giving you a single penny?

Isn't this blatant freeloading?

I have my ways.

Madam Wang, it's truly an honor to have you here. How well

has the Empress Dowager been lately? The Empress Dowager is in good health

.

Please enjoy your meal today.

My illegitimate daughter's braised dishes are so

embarrassing to serve!

What do you know?

We just want everyone to see

that even after marriage, she's nothing more than a braised food vendor.

So fragrant!

Haha!

Ladies,

this is braised food made in Qinghe.

She grew up in the kitchen

and knows nothing

but these rough tasks.

Although she's now Lady Wang Fei

, she hasn't changed her ways.

Everyone, please try it. My sister's old specialty,

the 'Cold Palace Secret

Mole,

' is the shop she opened.

When was this printed?

Miss, what kind of braised food is this?

Before

cooking, we use a mold to press out the characters. After cooking, the color seeps into the indentations,

so customers can see them

when they eat. We just want them to see

it. Now, please try it.

This braised food is really good!

Then I must speak to

the Empress Dowager. Madam Wang, you're joking.

Such crude things

wouldn't dare disturb

the Empress Dowager . Are you being modest, or

are the servants saying that Lady Liu

lifted a stone..." *Smashing my own foot

* Free advertising is a win-win situation!

Your Highness, the Empress Dowager

's decree: Your Majesty, I obey! The Empress

Dowager has heard of

the famous secret-recipe braised food from the Cold Palace

and wishes to try it, but the Imperial Physician says the Empress Dowager's stomach is weak

and she shouldn't eat greasy food.

You are requested to prepare a separate portion and send it to the palace.

Lady Wang specifically mentioned this to the Empress Dowager.

You must take it seriously

. Thank you, Eunuch!

Hey,

Miss, the Empress Dowager specifically requested that you make it.

It ca n't be greasy

or too salty

, but our braised food

has

a unique aroma...

Miss, these are

bite-sized skewers, convenient,

and paired with my specially prepared light braising broth,

not greasy at all.

Thank you for your reminder.

"Hmm,

Your Highness, please come

in first thing tomorrow morning

. Your Majesty

, I pay my respects to the

Empress Dowager. Rise . Lady Wang mentioned to me

that you made excellent braised dishes.

Lady Wang is too kind.

Are you delivering food or moving

house? I didn't know what Your Majesty would like to eat,

so I brought everything.

This is seasoned with broth and braising liquid, not greasy and easy to digest.

What is this

? I call it 'Lucky Charm Skewers

.' The chicken feet are so tender and

boneless, it's convenient for Your Majesty to eat

.

Ah, I haven't had anything so delicious for days.

This is my signature braising liquid and braised pig's trotters."

Your Majesty, I fear that Your Majesty

might crave

this, and it's delicious too

. Your Majesty , didn't you say you had an upset stomach?

A few bites

won't hurt.

Yes, yes, yes,

go and summon Imperial Chef Liu

. Yes

, Your

Majesty, I pay my respects. Please

rise and try this.

Your Majesty, this

was made by the Princess Consort. Please try it. I

obey

your command.

Hmph

,

how is it?

I'll savor it more, and if I keep savoring it, my lucky charm will be gone!

I've served in the Imperial Kitchen for 20 years

. I know Your Majesty has a discerning palate

, but to say how delicious

it is, I feel it's lacking something.

What's missing?

The chicken feet stew. Too mushy,

lacking chewiness.

The spice ratio in the braising liquid

... Your Highness, you're not formally trained, so

it's already quite an achievement to have done this well.

Interesting

. Your Majesty

, I dare to challenge Your Highness to a contest.

I would like to ask Your Majesty and Lady Wang to judge

the difference between

folk craftsmanship and palace

craftsmanship. Okay, I'll set the challenge

: cutting tofu.

Your Highness,

this is not like pig's trotters,

which would crumble in one cut.

I'm willing to give it a try.

Your Highness, you're finished.

He's just a braised food vendor,

how could he cut tofu?

Chef Liu could cut it with his eyes closed.

Isn't this just asking for trouble?!

Wow

!

This

is my master's true skill!

I could practice for ten years and still not cut it like this

! Hmph!

Your Highness ,

please bring

the kitchen knife!

Are you here to compete or to cause trouble?

This is a fancy knife!

It's still a whole piece, isn't it?

Hahaha!

Or should I

cut it for Your Highness? Hahaha

! Oh,

what is this

hydrangea tofu?

So harmonious

and perfect

! Your Majesty

, Chef Liu, I don't deny your knife skills,

but if it's broken up, it

's just tofu dregs! I've learned a

lot. I'll reward Your

Highness

with a new set of knives.

Your Majesty, could I please change the reward

? Oh, what do you want?

Please, Chef Liu, cut a week's worth of pig's trotters for me.

His knife skills are good!

Hahaha!

Dream on! Take the knife

back and cut it yourself.

Thank you, Your Majesty!

This is truly a fine knife!

Your Highness

, I heard you beat Chef Liu in the palace.

It was just luck.

People who can cut tofu into fancy shapes

don't just rely on luck.

Your Highness, why did you suddenly come to the kitchen?

I was checking the heat

! Hahaha!

Haha, tomorrow I'll have someone set up some new tables in front of the shop.

Why

are there so many customers and not enough seats?

Family, let's go!

All the braised food is open today!

Buy one get one half price

, limited to 50 servings,

while supplies last

! He calls his customers "family

"! Are you kidding me?

That Wang Ermazi ripped off three chicken intestines from me

and never came back.

That Zhao Dazui

always queues up for people.

And Liu Lanhan,

he never eats pig's trotters

because he has no teeth.

So

these people are hired to pretend to buy braised food. What

do you want?

Braised food lucky bag,

is it a surprise or not?

It all depends on luck!

Wow, what's inside?

Guaranteed delicious

, but not guaranteed. Okay,

I'll buy a "get rich"

one ! It's really big!

I'll buy a "surprise" one!

I thought it would be the smallest

, but it's two

! Miss, this lucky bag is selling so well!

Blind boxes!

He even knows this

! Hahaha!

Imperial

Jade Liquor

and Folk Jade Soup

are 180 per cup

! 180! Too expensive!

My lucky bag is only 5 coins!

Odd changes, even doesn't change.

Winter goes and spring comes again.

No, no,

signs. Look at quadrants.

What

are you looking at? Is this person out of their mind?

I also think...

Who are you from?

I was a substitute bride.

Even his way of time travel is so wild

! Come on, come on, it's hot!

In

ancient times, there were no printing presses,

so I drew by hand.

Our store is launching a membership card

. Buy one,

get one stamp. Collect 10 stamps and get a free braised dish.

It's really free, I'm not lying. You do n't

need to collect 10 stamps

to buy one. It's delicious

.

Hmph,

is my braised dish really that bad?

Today we sold twice as much as usual.

We now have 400 taels. We're

one step closer to 3,000 taels.

Hmm, what are

you doing? Aren't

you afraid I'll learn your taste? I

can't learn it.

That's not necessarily true.

That's not necessarily

true. How about this:

you teach me your weird ideas,

and I'll teach you how to make braised dish

. Deal .

Ahem, lesson one: KOL marketing is

basically

famous people promoting your products.

You mean, if they come and eat my braised food,

others will follow

suit? Yes, yes, I remember when I was little, Li's sesame seed cakes in the east of the city were so popular

that they got the county magistrate to buy them, and

the next day the whole city lined up for them.

Did you have this in ancient times too?

What about ancient

generals charging into enemy lines single-handedly

? Hmm,

Mr. Bai, excuse me

, Your Highness the Princess has graced us with her presence.

I brought you some braised food, it smells

so good!

I'd like to discuss something with you.

When you're telling stories, could you

mention my braised food in the narrative

? How?

For example, the general got carried away with

the battle and got hungry,

took out a secret recipe for braised pig's trotters from the Cold Palace, took a bite,

and suddenly his strength increased.

That's not quite right, is it?

This is a three-day supply

for you.

Okay, last time we talked about the general charging into enemy lines single-handedly,

today we'll continue...

So, as he got into the swing of

things, his stomach rumbled, and

he pulled out

a secret recipe for braised pig's trotters

from the Cold Palace. One bite , and wow,

he felt incredibly energetic,

instantly taking down three enemy generals with a single

spear thrust! Hahaha,

the great general eats braised pig's trotters in battle!

Hahaha,

the secret recipe for braised

food from the Cold

Palace is truly delicious! I just bought

your KL product yesterday, it's really useful!

Are you really not from another time?

I can't walk through walls,

but I'm strong enough

to help you demolish them!

Oh, no need, I have something to tell you,

I'm leaving. Where am I going ?

Home is a long way off.

What about

your shop? It

's closed. I opened it with borrowed money,

and now I've lost all the money

. Your weird ideas are pretty good,

it's just that the braised food is a bit lacking,

hahaha. The above is what I remembered: hunger marketing,

building a community—I've written it all down.

See which ones you can use

. Will you come back?

Who knows?

Maybe. One day I'll suddenly appear at your shop entrance

and shout, "Family members, goodbye!

Your Highness,

I'm here again!

What's wrong

? Isn't the Mid-Autumn Festival approaching?

The Empress Dowager has set up a moon-viewing banquet

and specifically requested your attendance. Everything's ready, please

serve it.

Yes,

no problem!

Your Highness, I'm so sorry, the Imperial Kitchen

is

preparing dishes for the moon-viewing banquet today,

the stoves are completely full.

Chef Liu, are you afraid I'll steal your thunder? Your

Highness is joking.

Alright

, then I won't disturb you.

Miss, please just leave it at that.

There's only one hour left before the banquet.

Who said leave

it at that? Serve up! Dragon and Phoenix,

Hundred Flowers, Abundant

Harvest,

Five-Kernel Mooncake

, Reunion and Blessing, Lotus Seed Paste

Mooncake, Harmony

and Beauty.

This Dragon and Phoenix is

​​beautifully carved

, but it tastes like just radish.

I chewed for a long time and there's no flavor at all.

This Five-Kernel is still

the same as last year's mooncake.

Can't you come up with something new

?" Your Majesty, the Imperial Kitchen has been preparing for three months,

and this is

all you've prepared

? Oh,

I'm late!

The stove in the Imperial Kitchen is only now empty.

That stove,

with fire and charcoal,

how can a woman carry it all by herself

? Hahaha, a dignified princess carrying a stove all over the palace

is not elegant at all! Your

Highness is right

, but I think

taste is more important

than elegance.

Su Qinghe, what are you making?

Freshly baked braised mooncakes

! Oh

, watch the fire

!

Wow! I've never smelled such fragrant mooncakes before

! Your Majesty , please try them

! Wow

!

Empress Dowager,

what kind of filling is this?

Braised meat and egg yolk

! I researched

it myself. I've eaten it for most of my life! This

is the first time I've ever had a braised

mooncake ! The braised flavor and crispy crust

are so much better than those

overly sweet ones. I'm glad Your Majesty likes it.

Braised pork mooncakes

make this palace banquet feel like a street stall!

Mooncakes are just snacks, they don't fill you up.

Can I eat one now?

Or we can share one,

hahaha!

Your Highness is amazing! It's

so delicious!

Liu Yuchu has lost face this time.

This old minister dares

to ask everyone to share

some Mid-Autumn Festival stories.

I'll start: Chang'e

flying to the moon, Hou Yi gazing at

the moon, and

the eternal longing.

I'll also share one...

Hmm,

Emperor Xuanzong's moon tour

and the "Rainbow Feather Robe Song

"... Your Highness,

you can also share some

Mid-Autumn Festival

stories . I don't know

, but I do know Su Dongpo's "

May We All Live Long and Prosper

" is a poem even a three-year-old can recite.

I'm not talking about his poem,

but his pork

. When Su Dongpo was demoted to Huangzhou,

he was so poor that he could only buy cheap pork

and stew it over a low flame

to make Dongpo Pork

. I want to ask the Grand Tutor,

do you know why the people in the villages outside the capital

don't like to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival?

Because whether they celebrate it or not, they'll go hungry

. I don't understand poetry and songs, I

only know how to cook

, but people can only talk

about romance when they're full.

Don't you think so,

Your Highness? Issuing the decree:

This year,

the three counties around the capital will be exempt from taxes for one month

during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Obeying the decree ... She can cook delicious food

and speaks

eloquently. I like

to take 500 taels of silver to reward the Princess.

With the 500 taels from the Empress Dowager,

we

now have 1,500 taels.

Hmm, I hope

we can bring Mother out in a few months. Your Highness

, why didn't you come to the Moon Appreciation Banquet?

I never go.

Why?

I am a distant relative of the Emperor.

My mother died early, and

I have no power in the palace.

When I was young, the Grand

Tutor praised my intelligence.

When this reached the Emperor's ears,

he smiled and said, "This child is extraordinary."

But that smile was one of apprehension.

Try what I saved for you.

Hmm, what does that mean? It's

delicious.

I heard you had three wives before. Who told you that

the whole capital knows

you're cursed with bad

luck in marriage? Your

first fiancée was the daughter of the Vice Minister of Rites. After

three months of engagement,

her family called off the engagement

because her father calculated that

marrying her to a local official was better than marrying me.

So it wasn't because you're cursed.

She even had twins last year. Your

second fiancée was the niece of the Minister of Revenue. She

died after six months of engagement

; actually, she ran off with a traveling opera troupe.

Her family felt ashamed.

Hmm

, laugh if you want,

hahaha. And your third fiancée? Your

third fiancée was the daughter of a commander.

After two months of engagement,

she married his commander of a thousand households.

So

, hahaha... "You think I'm poor?

One of you ran off with someone else, and

the other married someone else, hahaha,

not bad summary.

Now you have a fourth wife,

so you're not afraid of me anymore?

You're different. Your

Highness, there's an urgent report.

What happened?

Someone impeached me

, saying I indulged the Princess's business

and competed with the people for profit.

I'm the one who implicated you

, Your Highness. That 's nonsense! You run your shop honestly and make

money openly and fairly.

The person who impeached me isn't because of you,

but because of me. If

you don't sell braised food today,

they'll say I didn't repair the palace walls tomorrow.

They'll find a reason to frame

you . You don't need to worry about

this;

I'll figure something out.

Censor Zhou from the Censorate also said the Princess's humble origins

make her unworthy of being a Princess."

This is an insult to the royal family

. Lord Zhou himself opened three silk shops last year.

He impeached me, and he himself is investigating his brother-in

-law's land purchase in the suburbs the year before last.

And who is behind this impeachment?

Didn't you say you weren't afraid of their impeachments?

This letter is to explain the Princess's business dealings.

Please investigate thoroughly,

Your Majesty.

The Princess's business is just starting out

and can't withstand setbacks.

I can handle it, but his shops can't.

Shuyao, bring me a lamp. It's getting

dark, I can't see clearly.

Your Highness, it's

chilly at night

. What is this?

My plan.

You want to open a branch.

Your Highness, I've been thinking about this all afternoon.

If I were just a Princess selling braised food

... I can be impeached

, but if the secret of the Cold Palace becomes the capital's calling card

, and many people rely on my shop for a living,

then anyone who wants to touch me will have to think twice.

Tell me,

when I open a branch, I need to hire people,

running errand boys, and

shop assistants.

These people all depend on the shop for their livelihood.

In case of a famine,

I can also sell braised food at a low price

and give porridge to those who can't afford to eat.

You're thinking too far ahead.

How much silver does the branch need

? No need for the prince to pay

, I've earned enough myself.

Are you sure

? Hmm, it's about the prince's impeachment.

Don't worry, it's resolved.

Moon, moon,

please shine your light on me. Are there any good shops left in

the capital ? Can I find

one? Okay, you didn't say anything, so you agreed.

I'll go look for one tomorrow.

Hey, either it's occupied or it

's ridiculously expensive.

The good shopkeeper in the East Market

charges 100 taels a month.

Why doesn't he just rob someone

?

What's that over there? It

looks like an academy

.

Let's go take a look.

Miss, you don't want to open a shop here,

do you? Scholars stay up late and need midnight snacks the most.

The students of the academy come from all over the country.

If they think it's good,

they'll recommend it to

you when they return to their hometowns. This shop costs 50 taels a month.

Your shop is

in a remote

location, has a small storefront, and leaks.

You're telling me it's 50 taels?

Who said

it leaks fish

? So what?

Brown is from the first year it leaked,

dark yellow is from the second year, and

light yellow is from the third year.

So what?

10 taels ?

You're dreaming

! Keep leaking

then . I'll come back

when you've ruined the floor tiles.

Hey, come back!

15 taels! 15 taels, okay?

12 taels

, deal! "Is it not a

pleasure to learn and practice what you've

learned?" "Is it not a pleasure to

have friends coming from afar

?" "

What does it taste like?

" Eating chicken feet in class ? I

didn't eat them, I just smelled them.

You brought pig's trotters to class.

I was planning to eat them

after class. You guys treat the classroom like a canteen!

All of you, stand up

! "You copy the Analects ten times and hand it in tomorrow.

Hmm,

you 're

the one selling braised food.

You're a teacher at the academy.

Your braised food is making the students lose interest in their studies;

all they do is eat all day. Teacher, do you

have any evidence that my braised food is affecting the students' studies

? Do you

even need evidence

? The aroma fills the whole street.

So what do you want to do?

Move it! There can't be shops next to the academy;

that's the rule.

No! If we move it, what will we eat?

Teacher, how can the students study on empty stomachs? They

need to be well-fed to have the energy.

Weren't you hungry when you were studying?

Hmph,

I used to eat steamed buns.

Cold steamed buns are nowhere near as good as hot braised food.

If you had braised food back then

..." Who knows, maybe

I'll become the top scholar

soon, sir! I have a suggestion

. Oh,

what?

I'll send 10 servings of braised food to the academy every day

for the students who study hard here,

on the condition that I continue to run

this shop. They can all shut up. The

students study until the wee hours every day,

so hungry they're dizzy and their eyes

are blurry. Only with braised food

can the students survive!

10

servings a day, not one more,

no problem.

Okay,

cough... Hmm, no lecture today

, let's have a poetry contest

!

No topic restrictions,

who goes first?

Under the moon, the sound of reading aloud suddenly

comes from next door.

A braised pig's trotter is refreshing, a chicken foot is waking you up

, and you're not sleepy at the wee hours.

Sir, your lecture flows like water,

and the students' bellies are thundering.

If it weren't for the cold boar... Who can hold out

until dawn?

Hahaha,

all nonsense

poems

! Dawn! Dawn!

After eating pig's trotters, go to school!

Miss, the academy branch has been open for half a month

and has earned almost 500 taels.

Adding the previous amount, it

's over 2,000.

Mother, please wait a little longer.

You should be happy for me too.

Okay, I 'll give you an extra meal today.

See this place?

Let's open one too, that's all.

What do you know?

Why should customers come to our place

? Our place is cheap.

Cheap is useless

. Let's steal

their recipe.

They're not afraid. You can't learn it even if you

look . So what do we do?

If we can't steal the recipe

, we'll steal their name.

Miss, this is already the sixth one.

Cold Palace Imperial Recipe.

The most outrageous thing about this "Cold Palace

Secret Recipe" and "Cold Palace Ancestral Royal Mansion

Braised Food" place is that the signboard says "Princess's Secret Recipe"

—how dare they say that?

I don't even have any apprentices, so

where would I get

this "Princess's Secret Recipe"?

It's awful, I'm

never buying

it again! I wasted 50 coins,

Miss, did you hear that?

Customers eat it and they think it's ours.

This is ruining our reputation!

Go away

! What are you doing, Miss?

Developing new dishes ? What do you want to make?

Lion's Head Meatballs! Lion's

Head Meatballs have an ancestral secret recipe,

right? Yes

, but I also have a secret.

It's not about brute force, it's about endurance.

Their hands get sore after cutting half of

the meat cubes... Uneven sizes

mean uneven flavor.

I can chop from start to finish without my hand shaking or the knife veering.

The first step, stirring,

doesn't your hand get tired?

An average person runs out of energy after 50 stirs;

the meat starts

to fall apart before it's even

firm enough to absorb the seasonings.

I can stir 200 times!

200 times !

This meat smells

amazing even before it hits the pot!

The braising liquid has already been kneaded in.

The flavor will only intensify during cooking.

Others are afraid of breaking the meat into clumps,

so they can only gently shape it,

resulting in it falling apart as soon as it hits the pot.

I dare to use force

because I stir long enough for the meat to be sticky enough,

and my hand stays steady.

After an hour

, the braising liquid and broth will mix together,

making it even more fragrant! The fur is falling out

! This lucky

cat

is called "Super Strength Lion's Head,"

limited to 20 servings daily.

It's just a meatball,

what's so special about it

? You'll know once you try it!

This meatball is extraordinary!

Hmm,

another one

! Another one

! Boss lady, I'll come earlier tomorrow to grab it

! Hmph, this lion's head is so special!

Someone go buy 10 jin of pork belly,

we'll

make it too ! Boss, you can't stir

it anymore, keep stirring until you get that feeling

!

Ugh

, it's completely different!

Miss, those knock-off shops don't make lion's head,

they can't make it!

Hahaha!

You can learn the name

, but not the skill;

you can learn the appearance

, but not the taste .

The more you imitate, the more

you seem... They are the real deal.

This time, for the Empress Dowager's birthday,

the Emperor said

it would be a contest of heartfelt

gifts . If our Imperial Kitchen loses,

where will we put our faces?

Master, I heard that the Princess Consort is coming too.

What should we make

? Hmph ,

this is the "Hundred Longevity Characters" I prepared.

Hundreds of ingredients are used to form the character "寿" (longevity).

Master, you're brilliant!

Who can compare

? Hmph, she's definitely going to lose this time.

This is called "Perfect

Ten"—ten kinds of longevity buns,

each with a hidden blessing note.

Whichever one

the Empress Dowager eats, that's the blessing. Boss, your idea is brilliant!

This is a phoenix

carved from radish.

This is a hundred birds

made from quail eggs, pigeon eggs, and sparrow eggs.

Each bird is different.

This is "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix," and the

Empress Dowager is the phoenix!

How could the Emperor not be pleased?

The boss is amazing!

The meaning is wonderful!

The

Empress Dowager's birthday banquet is tomorrow!

We

ca n't

compete in terms of grandeur, pomp, or skill

. What to do then?

We'll just make longevity noodles

—it's the most essential dish for a birthday celebration.

Everyone's just getting fancy and

forgetting the basics.

Miss, where did you

buy the best flour ?

Today is the Empress Dowager's birthday.

I'll first offer a toast to the Empress Dowager, wishing her

boundless

happiness and longevity.

This year's dishes

aren't about price,

but about who puts the most thought into them. I'll reward you!

Serving dishes: The Imperial Kitchen presents a hundred longevity paintings

with hundreds of ingredients.

How long must this have taken to prepare?

Truly worthy of the Imperial Kitchen!

Hmm,

Empress Dowager, what do you think? How

thoughtful! Finding so many different ingredients wasn't easy.

The Imperial Kitchen presents dishes, auspicious

omens from the East Sea.

This is tofu,

but this isn't tofu,

this isn't tofu, it's kung fu!

These crane wings are so thin they're translucent! Chef Liu,

your skills are getting better and better!

Thank you for the praise, Empress Dowager.

Unlike some people

who managed to fool others last time,

this time they're probably going to be exposed.

Yes, what kind of respectable dishes can a braised food vendor

make?

Zuixianlou presents dishes,

perfect in every way!

Empress Dowager, Your Majesty,

each longevity packet contains a blessing note

wishing the Empress Dowager a long and healthy life.

This is interesting

, like solving a riddle

! Hahaha!

Juxianlou

presents dishes.

"A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix"

—Your Majesty,

Empress Dowager,

this dish alone took 20 days just to carve the phoenix!

Yes, it's

beautiful, truly beautiful.

The Imperial Kitchen and all the restaurants have finished serving their dishes.

You haven't prepared anything yet, have you

? Hahaha!

Your Majesty, this concubine needs Your Majesty's help with this dish.

Yes, yes,

Your Majesty is the Goddess of Longevity

; how can we ask the Goddess of Longevity for help

? Hahaha!

What are you trying to do?

Hahaha!

Fine, I'll see

what tricks you're up to now, you little brat !

Carved from dough

? Isn't this just

a dough figurine? The Imperial Kitchen carves tofu immortal mountains,

and he's carving a dough dragon.

Is this even a dish

? He's doomed!

Hmph

! When I was learning carving, I

could carve this

dough dragon on my first day! Did you buy it at

the temple

fair? Hahaha!

Your Majesty, this concubine

drew a dragon,

but... "This dragon

... I dare not paint its eyes!

Why?

Your Majesty the Empress Dowager is the mother of the Son of Heaven

, the dragon you paint is the true auspicious dragon

!

Hahaha! Emperor

, look at this girl

! Hahaha!

The

dragon is alive! Its whiskers are moving!

Oh

, how is

it moving? Never mind how it moves,

as long as the Empress Dowager is happy

!

Qinghe,

what's going on with this dragon?

It's the Empress Dowager's good fortune

that brought it to life!

I don't have that

ability

! Hmm, interesting!

Now all the dishes are served.

My beloved ministers

, tell me, who has the most original idea?

Hmm

,

I think the Hundred Longevity Painting from the Imperial Kitchen has a profound meaning.

The dragon's eyes were painted by the Empress Dowager herself.

You say the Imperial Kitchen is good?

That's not slapping the Empress Dowager in the face.

But the Princess's dragon

has the Empress Dowager's eyes painted by her own hand,

its whiskers fluttering, a

sign of good fortune descending from heaven.

This sentiment..."

Your Majesty, I believe no one can

match this. I second the suggestion that the dragon ,

with its eyes personally painted by the Empress Dowager,

symbolizes the prosperity and lasting blessings of the Great Qi Kingdom

. I also second the suggestion

that the Empress Dowager personally participate;

this is the greatest expression of her heart.

In all my years, this

is the first time I've seen the Emperor cook for himself!

Hahaha, it seems all my beloved ministers agree.

Therefore, I declare

today's most innovative dish to be the Princess's Crouching Dragon.

I reward the Princess with 300 taels of silver, and

everyone else with 100 taels each,

as a token of my

gratitude to Your Majesty

and the Empress Dowager.

The dragon is for show,

and the noodles are for eating.

I will also offer a bowl of longevity noodles

to wish the Empress Dowager a thousand years of life.

Hmm

,

these noodles are so thin

and chewy. The dough

has been resting for an hour

, and I kneaded it hundreds of times.

Miss, how does that dragon move?

There's a hot stone slab underneath,

and steam rises from the dragon's whiskers. "If you just pass through the gap, you'll float away.

How did you come up with the idea of ​​having the Empress Dowager dot the eyes? The

Empress Dowager was involved in

this dragon; it's her work.

Who can say it's bad?

Miss, with the 300 taels the Empress Dowager gave

us, we now have 3,100

taels. That

's enough to bring Madam out.

Okay , okay,

do

n't turn around, I'm dizzy.

Miss, let's go to the Marquis's residence now.

There's no rush. 3,000 taels of silver can't be paid in banknotes.

You mean we should

carry it all the way there in a box?

That braised food princess,

so much silver!

Su Qinghe, what are you doing?

Madam

, I'm here to pick up my mother. 3,000 taels,

not a penny less

, so you won't worry about banknotes.

He can earn so much selling braised food;

he's really capable.

You...you did it on purpose? On purpose?

What?

Madam, did you write a contract back then?" It was agreed

that 3,000 taels would be enough to release her ,

Madam. So many people are watching,

Qinghe, what are you saying?

Your mother is from our Marquis's mansion.

Over the years, she has never treated the Marquis's mansion badly.

Considering your filial piety,

that's why we agreed to let you take her away.

It's not about the money.

Madam is right

. The Marquis's mansion

has treated my mother very well.

They even let her live

next to the woodshed and wash clothes for 15 years.

They even didn't call a doctor for her when she was sick,

making her bear it all herself.

Su Qinghe, stop talking nonsense here. Your mother

has never lacked anything in terms of food or clothing

in the Marquis's mansion all these years.

You, a junior, are

gossiping about your stepmother in the street. Is

this how you behave? Let

bygones

be bygones.

Thank you, Madam. Cheng

Qinghe,

Mother, I've come to take you away.

You...

you really...

Mother, don't say anything more,

come with me first. Okay, okay.

Miss, you really gave them those boxes of silver?

Hmm,

3,000 taels?

That's too good for them.

You can earn more silver

, but you only have one mother

, Su Qinghe. You just wait

! Qinghe

, this is the Prince 's mansion.

Mother, this is our home. Greetings, Your Highness

, no need for formalities.

Mother-in-law, you must

be tired from your journey.

Your Highness, I dare not consider

you Qinghe's mother, you are my

mother-in-law.

Is the east wing room ready?

Your Highness, it is ready .

I also placed a few pots of roses on the windowsill as instructed.

I didn't say to place flowers.

It was Your Highness who instructed me, saying that Madam would like roses.

Your Highness personally went to the flower market to pick them out.

Are you thinking of...? "Running laps

, hmph

,

Qinghe,

you married a good man

!

Your Highness, you're still awake

, waiting

for you.

Here , this is

hand cream I brought back from my trip out of the capital a few days ago.

How did Your Highness know

?

I saw Shuyao applying medicine to you last time.

Does it still hurt

? It

hasn't hurt for a long

time.

Qinghe,

your mother-in-law has been brought out,

and we should hold our wedding ceremony.

Before, when I wasn't around,

the servants

gave you an old wedding dress

and made you live in a side courtyard. Your Highness , I don't care about those

old wedding dresses. A wedding dress is still a wedding, and

a side courtyard is better than living in the Marquis's mansion.

What I care about

is that I want everyone in the capital to know that

you are not a substitute bride,

but a properly wedded princess,

the one I wanted to marry." Oh

, if word gets out of

the capital, the girls will be devastated. So this

cold-faced devil would actually say such things

!

In my 20 years in officialdom,

I've never lost face like this before! It's been almost a month since the last incident. My impeachment of him—that the Princess Consort was competing with the people for profit and disgraced the royal family—was perfectly reasonable, wasn't

it

?

But

even

good

things

can turn into bad things

!

What happened?

The Princess Consort, Your Highness,

the Prince is under house arrest!

The Ministry of Justice has surrounded the Prince's residence,

forbidding him from leaving even a step

! Explain yourself!

The Prince personally funded the purchase of grain for disaster

relief, saving tens of thousands of people.

He hadn't even had a chance to return home today

when... The Ministry of Justice has taken him away.

Someone impeached him for embezzling relief grain by using

inferior materials.

The Emperor, upon seeing the evidence,

was furious.

What evidence?

Moldy rice mixed with sand was

found in the relief grain.

Miss, what should we do?

Oh dear,

where is that batch of grain now? Part

of it has been distributed

, but it's been seized in the granary outside the city.

That bag of evidence grain is sealed in the Ministry of Justice; we can't get in.

It's getting dark now;

it's easier to get things done after dark.

You two, mind the shop

! Hey!

Stop!

Who goes there?

The Princess Consort

of the Prince's Mansion! It

's so late at night!

The Prince bought the grain out of his own pocket,

and it's been seized here!

But this grain is evidence! Has

His Majesty convicted you of the crime?

No

, not

yet. Since you haven't been convicted,

it's still considered part of my household, right?

But you need to hurry

, the higher-ups know,

and we servants will have trouble explaining. In the time it takes to drink

a cup of tea,

Your Highness,

why are you eating this? It 's

exactly the same as what I used to eat.

It's vomited from the bottom of a wealthy family's warehouse.

I understand. Your Majesty, you

won't see anyone today.

Please return.

I have urgent business

concerning the disaster relief

for tens of thousands of victims

in the north. Your Majesty says you won't see them .

Your Highness, please

rise .

Empress Dowager

, please come over

. Rise ! You girl,

kneeling at the palace gate so early in the morning!

I have urgent business

to attend to Your

Majesty. Ah,

the matter of the disaster relief grain!

Empress Dowager, you are wise.

The Prince has been wronged.

How about this: tomorrow at the morning

court, I will let the Emperor hear your explanation in court.

Thank you, Empress Dowager.

Don't thank me in

such a hurry. If you can't give me a reason,

I can't help you.

Hmm,

that's heartless and ungrateful

! This is the Princess who came

to court carrying a sack!

I'll only give you half an incense stick's time

to speak.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

What kind of rice is this? Even

livestock wouldn't eat it!

It's moldy!

Your Majesty, I am a concubine's daughter, born

from childhood...

Good rice is not

for me. I eat this moldy, old rice

mixed with sand.

A legitimate merchant who wants to cut corners

mixes old rice with new rice, and

the appearance might be passable.

But this moldy, sandy rice is

obviously inedible;

no one would buy it.

There's only one place where this kind of rice is found:

the granaries of wealthy families,

used specifically to feed servants and illegitimate children.

Even if Your Highness wanted to pass off inferior

rice as superior , you wouldn't choose this obviously fake rice, would you?

Wouldn't that make the impeachment petition questionable?

This rice is moldy from years of compression;

nobody touches it normally .

Who has recently taken any from the granary? The

granary manager must remember...

Your Majesty, I don't understand court politics

, but Your Highness saved tens of thousands of disaster victims.

If those who do good deeds are falsely accused,

then... Who would dare to do this afterward?

How can anyone in this world be convinced

? I've finished speaking,

Minister of Justice.

I will investigate further and give you the results within three days.

I obey the decree, Your Majesty,

spare my life!

It wasn't this servant's doing

, hahaha.

Lu Chengyan used

his own money for disaster relief, and you're still trying to smear him!

Your

Majesty, spare my life! I was confused for a moment.

How long have you been preparing

? Do you think I don't know?

Issue my decree:

dismiss him from his post

, investigate his family property

, confiscate it. Lu Chengyan's confinement is lifted,

his official position is restored

. Your Majesty is wise

! Thankfully

, the investigation is clear

. You worried about me.

I just went to the court and gave all the officials a lecture. My confinement is

a small matter;

overthrowing Lord Zhou is the real deal.

The Emperor has been waiting for this opportunity.

This matter is your achievement

. I accidentally made a contribution.

It wasn't an accident;

only you could do this

in Qinghe

!

What is this?

There's a grand restaurant in the south of the city,

three stories high with a backyard.

I've already negotiated with the Jingzhao

magistrate to take it over.

If you make a profit, it's yours; if you

lose, it's on me. My

lord, you're using the restaurant as a betrothal gift

! And the lord even

drank with the Jingzhao magistrate three times

just to negotiate that restaurant.

He usually doesn't drink at

all! The lord is truly devoted to the young lady. Have

you two seen enough?

Hehehe

, I'm just passing by.

You've been squatting under that tree for half an hour

!

So, do you agree or not?

No refunds or exchanges.

Young lady

, you look so beautiful today

! You've been crying since this morning. Will you

even be able to see the road in a while?

Qinghe, your mother has no skills in this life,

except for cooking

. You cook better than your mother.

If you hadn't taught me such good cooking skills,

I wouldn't be able to make all the braised dishes in the capital.

You're so sweet

-talking , hahaha!

This collar is too tight

, it's making me speechless.

Tch

, you haven't said enough!

Come on, come on, I've been treasuring this Shaoxing wine for five years!

You said you only had three years,

so I finally got the chance to give it to you

, hahaha!

Ahem, may the lord and princess's

life be like the broth,

getting more fragrant

with each simmer, and

their love like the

flavorful pig's trotters! Hahaha, go back

and tell your husband that

after the wedding, he'll send three days of free braised food to your academy

! Ahhh, the Empress Dowager's congratulatory gift has arrived

! The Empress Dowager congratulates the Princess on her wedding

and bestows a pair of

jade ruyi scepters

. May the newlyweds have good fortune

and grow old together

.

The auspicious time has

arrived. The bride and groom enter the hall.

I didn't cry,

so why are you wiping

your sweat?

First bow to heaven and earth ,

second

bow to the parents

. Haha ,

the couple bows to

each other!

Hahaha! Ahhh,

family,

I'm back!

Hmph,

I'm not late, am I?

Yi Nuo ,

you actually came!

Hehehe,

look at my congratulatory gift, chocolate!

Hehe,

what's this

? Try it

! It's

so sweet!

Hahaha,

delicious!

Girl, when you rushed in,

we thought you were here to cause trouble.

I'm here to eat at the banquet ! Hahaha,

the ceremony is complete, escorting

you to the bridal chamber! Ahhh, I

'm so tired today,

you should rest first,

Your Highness. Today is our wedding night!

Hehehe

,

Miss, the goods have arrived.

The farmer said he delivered 200 jin of pig trotters ,

and you should go and inspect them yourself.

Hmph

,

you go ahead and do your work, I'll be right back! Hehe, you're still wearing your wedding dress! A wedding dress is also a kind of clothing. If you can do work,

then

I

'll

keep you

company! Your Highness, you're also wearing your wedding dress!

Hehe,

Zhang Kai

,

hahaha!
