The farm cook is very prosperous

Chapter 98 Food Festival Activities (1)
This woman with delicate features and eyes, like a lotus emerging from the water, has already strongly aroused his curiosity.Different from those vulgar fans in the usual days, they only know how to please and flatter all the time, which is very boring.

"Your Highness, don't you want to try it?" Chun Niang's words disturbed the second prince's thoughts.

"Taste, definitely taste, just looking at it will make people move their index fingers." The second prince looked at Chunniang with a smile and said.

As soon as the second prince sat down, a man dressed in black stood up behind him. After respectfully saluting the second prince, he took out a brocade box from his bosom.Just at the moment when Chunniang was puzzled, the man in black took out a silver stick from the box. The silver stick was as long as a finger, and on the other end of the long flat side was carved a delicate jade handle. , making a small silver sign look more gorgeous and expensive, and it looks like it is used by dignitaries.

The silver pick went around in each of the eight dishes, and seeing that Chunniang still didn't understand what was going on, she was an idiot.This person is really careful, and yes, the royal family has been poisoned a lot, and it is impossible to guard against it. If you act carelessly, you probably won't live so long.It's really tiring for these people, and we can't relax our vigilance at any time.

"Your Highness, please use it slowly. If there is nothing wrong, the little lady and others will leave first." Chun Niang saluted the second prince.

Seeing that Chunniang was about to leave, the second prince hesitated again and then decided to speak: "Um, lady boss, please take a step slowly, Xiao Wang has something to discuss with you now."

"Your Highness, if you need anything, just ask for it."

"Come, come, come, sit down first, let's talk slowly."

"Um, girl, how can you stand up for the prince." The second prince suddenly changed his attitude, what kind of medicine is this man in the gourd selling?

"This king asked you to sit, so you sit. If you don't sit, you will look down on this king." The second prince pretended to be angry.

"Ministers don't dare, but women sit down." Chunniang really couldn't figure out the pulse, so she followed the second prince's temperament first.

The second prince lowered his voice, and said slowly: "That's right, next year is the Empress Dowager's [-]th birthday, and before that, there will be a 'food contest' in the palace, no family affairs, status, as long as you have a unique skill, you can sign up Participate in the competition. The contestants who win this competition can enter the palace to be "royal chefs."

"So what?" Chunniang listened for a long time, what did this matter have to do with her.

"Ah?" The second prince was confused now. People in the world study for fame and fame, right? It seems that this 'royal chef' is the highest state of being a cook, who wouldn't want it.Why have I talked to this girl for a long time, she must have no response.

"I don't want to be an 'imperial chef'." Chunniang shrugged and said indifferently, what's so good about being trapped behind that high tiled red wall.

"Why? Do you know how many chefs dream of the status of 'Royal Cook'? With the status of 'Royal Cook', let alone one Dingxianglou, you can see ten Dingxianglou without any problem."

"There are so many Fenglu who are 'Imperial Cooks'?" Chunniang's eyes lit up when she heard about the money. If I had known this before, why would I open a restaurant?

"Uh, no, it's not the 'Royal Chef' and you don't have a lot of salary, just because of this status, many people will come to eat your dishes, and your business will be ten times better than now. "The second prince is trying his best to paint a beautiful blueprint to Chunniang.

"It turned out to be relying on the identity of the 'royal chef' to advertise." Chunniang finally understood what the second prince said, and nodded.

"What do you mean by advertising?"

"That's what you said."

"That means you will go to the capital and become an 'imperial chef'."

"I still don't want to."

"Why?" The second prince thought that Chunniang had already been tempted, but he didn't expect that the girl was still not enlightened, and asked a little depressed.

"To be an 'imperial chef' is to be trapped in the palace. I am a woman, how can I abandon my family and go there? Besides, I don't like the restricted life there, it's too boring." Chunniang didn't understand this. Why did the second prince want her to participate in the 'Gourmet Contest' so much as an imperial chef? It's better to just explain the reason directly.

"Actually, the winner is not only rewarded with being the 'royal cook', if he doesn't want to be the 'royal cook', he also has other options, such as bonuses, or a chance to face the saint. If the emperor is happy, say Maybe he will agree to his request, of course it is reasonable and not excessive." The second prince secretly observed Chunniang's expression while talking.He has said so much now, this girl should be interested in one of them.

"Request" Chunniang muttered softly.If the emperor is asked to help investigate the murder case of Chen Feng's family, I don't know if this request is too much, and the emperor will agree.The current emperor should be a wise emperor. Although she has never met the emperor himself, she can't tell whether it is good or bad, but judging from the current situation in the world, as far as the people can live and work in peace and contentment, it should not be that bad. Let's just think so .

"Is what you said true? If you win the championship, you can get a bonus if you don't become an 'imperial chef', or you can be a face saint?" Chun Niang repeatedly confirmed.

"Uh, it should be." Although the second prince didn't understand why Chunniang changed her mind so quickly, it was a good thing for him.

"Okay, I'll go." Chun Niang said confidently.Whether it's for Chen Feng or for the future of Dingxianglou, at least there are bonuses.

"Great, don't worry, I will arrange the registration for the competition for you. Then you just need to take this and go to the Prince's Mansion on the North Street of the capital to find me." The waist badge is handed to Chun Niang.Oh my god, things are developing too fast, he has to change the itinerary immediately, and he has to change the regulations of the competition before the announcement of the 'Food Competition' is sent out.

"Your Highness, there's no need. I'll just sign up like everyone else." The second prince was so enthusiastic that Chun Niang was flattered.

"I know your strength very well. Don't worry, leave this matter to me. Come, come, come, I will pay my respects in advance when I come here. Don't let me down when the time comes." Two After finishing speaking, the prince personally poured a glass of water and wine for Chunniang.

"Minister, thank you for Your Highness's cultivation, and I will definitely live up to His Highness's expectations." After speaking, he raised his glass and drank it down.

"Dong dong dong" an eager knock on the door interrupted the conversation between Chunniang and the second prince. Dashuan hurried in from the private room. Although he tried his best to keep calm, his eyes still betrayed him. .

After Dashuan came to Chunniang's side and whispered in a whisper, Chunniang frowned involuntarily, and said to the second prince with a smile: "Your Highness, there is something urgent in the store, I am rushing to deal with it now, so I won't delay your continued consumption of food." gone."
