Speaking of which, there is actually no marriage between him and Princess Qingyun, and the concubine seems to be just mentioning it casually, but in fact, she is more concerned about the palace banquet.

Although Shen Linzhou took this matter to heart, but he didn't say much to others, when he went back, Shen Jingan asked Shen Linzhou to find Qin Ran as soon as possible, Shen Linzhou thought about it and had a conflict between the two, and instinctively felt a little repulsed.

But when it came to the evening, this matter could not be left unsaid, so Shen Linzhou could only resign himself to Qin Wuran.

There were about those houses before, Qin Wuran was still angry, and when she saw him at this time, she didn't have a good face, Shen Linzhou himself also reflected a little in the past few days, knowing that this was too much, in fact, he could only sigh lightly and give him a soft face.

"The things in those houses before were really wrong, and for me, I felt that it was dangerous for you to go out, so I didn't want to move out with those younger brothers and sisters."

What Qin Wuran wanted to hear these days was an apology, and at this time, most of the anger in her heart disappeared, "Even if you feel bad, discuss it with me in advance, I naturally have my own considerations in doing this, and I am not angry with you and willful, so you can't ask me before making a decision?" ”

"But didn't you ask me what I meant when you moved out?"

Qin was stunned by this sentence, and in the end she could only stare at him and didn't know how to answer.

Fortunately, Shen Linzhou is a person who can bend and stretch, and when he saw that she was obviously angry, he hurriedly coaxed: "I am already at fault in this matter, and I am not ready to give myself a reason in front of you, but I hope you will think twice about moving out, if you really think about it, I will find you a house and match you with two guards." Or you can live directly in the mountain and river restaurant, and the large courtyard behind the left and right is still empty, which is not the only good place to go. ”

Although Qin Yingran said that she had thought it through at the beginning, she was just herself, Qin Cinian and Qin Yingnian were categorically unable to put themselves in danger together, so this matter still needs to be considered.

However, Shen Linzhou saw that she was no longer angry with herself, so she talked about another thing.

"Today, the concubine asked me to go to the palace."

For Qin Wuran, before she met Shen Linzhou, the biggest official she had ever seen was the mayor of Yuanxi Town, but now she is the son of the prime minister and the prime minister's wife at every turn, and now even the concubine has come out, Qin Wuran's eyes widened slightly.

Shen Linzhou only felt a little funny when he saw him like this, so he rubbed her head and said: "The concubine means that I want to have a recipe for the state banquet next month, and I think this is also a good opportunity to promote my reputation, not to mention that this matter can't be shirked, so I agreed." ”

Qin Wuran originally thought that things involving the palace would be dangerous, but after thinking about it carefully, the emperor's order could not be violated, and the concubine's order was estimated to be the same, so she was also a little nervous in her heart.

"It shouldn't be any leisure, right?"

"You can rest assured that my father said no, and the people in the palace will not really embarrass us, but you also know that the recipes used in the Shanhe restaurant are all developed by you, so I have to talk to you."

"Then I'm going to help too."

Shen Linzhou shook his head as he listened, "I don't have to let you get involved in this dispute. ”

What he said was that he didn't want Qin Manran to get involved, but in the end, Qin Manran still had to mix it up, after all, there were some dishes that she knew how to do, and when it came to some of the secret recipes left by Old Lady Li, Qin Manran couldn't give them all away without concealment.

Fortunately, the chefs in the Imperial Kitchen were just thinking about how to solve the task this time, and they didn't care about her little selfishness, plus there was a concubine pressing on them, and no one dared to covet those secret recipes.

It took a month for Qin Wuran to restore a few rare dishes with more expensive ingredients, and the cake in the Prime Minister's Mansion also received unanimous praise.

"I'm bothering you these days." The concubine said so.

Qin Wuran was a little flattered, and hurriedly said that she was not in trouble, and she always made the cake in her hall.

The cake is soft and sweet, it is a different flavor from the pastry, and the layer of cream on the top is also very smooth, and it is decorated with fruits that are rare in winter, which is also very novel.

"When the time comes, let's add this one, I'm afraid I've never seen it over there when I think about it."

Qin Wuran pondered carefully, it is estimated that the exotic land that can be so different from Da Qi is not close to here, and Da Yang and Da Qi are bordering, and they may not have seen this kind of strange thing, so they took half of the cake to the imperial dining room and discussed it with those cooks.

After most of the month, the cooks in the imperial dining room were also very optimistic about her restored dishes, and at this time, they saw her bring a cake over, and they came forward one after another.

Qin Wuran can't be in charge of an entire imperial dining room in the end, but after the dishes in the Shanhe Restaurant have been served at the state banquet, it is estimated that it will also be a great benefit to the shop, and when the preparations have been completed, the palace maid beside the concubine personally sent Qin Wuran out and gave her a bracelet.

Seeing that the bracelet was of high color, and the jade quality was also tentacle warm, it could be seen that it was not an ordinary product, Qin Wuran didn't dare to accept it, so she shirked it, but only heard the big palace maid say: "This is a congratulatory gift from the mother to the girl, and the girl will accept it." ”

Qin Wuran felt inexplicable about this, but she only thought that she thought that Shanhe Restaurant would definitely become famous after this time, and Shen Linzhou also pulled his sleeve next to him to signal to take it, and she didn't continue to shirk it, but just let people say thank you.

"Something for her." The concubine saw the palace maid coming back, so she asked.

The palace maid nodded, but was a little puzzled: "Didn't the princess fall in love with that son?" Why does the mother want to match him with others? ”

"This matter is not something that can be matched or not, but there are already signs between themselves, and they can't be matched by this palace, and it is not the turn of this palace to make an obstruction."

The palace maid nodded as if she didn't understand, but she also knew that Princess Qingyun's affection this time was mostly going to end without a problem.

It's a little distressing to think about it like this.

On the second day of December, the German banquet to welcome the envoys finally went on as scheduled, and the emperor sent three princes to meet them at the city gate in person, which was said to be very grand.

However, Qin Wuran didn't have time to observe, after all, after saying that the state banquet had Shanhe restaurants participating, many guests who had not been here before came over, and the business was hot for a while, and even Qin Wuran was too busy to spare her hands, and at night she rubbed her sore shoulders and said to Shen Linzhou: "Should we also expand out?" People also have to recruit more, otherwise they will always be in short supply like this, and there will be chaos over time. ”

Shen Linzhou responded, in fact, he had handled this matter as early as half a year ago, and at this time, seeing that he had eyebrows, he said to her: "I have also opened branches in other places, and I will take you to inspect it one day." ”

Hearing this, Qin Wuran couldn't help but feel a little interested, "Then where are you expanding your branches?" ”

"For the time being, there are several cities around the imperial capital, and one day we will expand it again, so that everyone in the world knows about it, and everyone in the world can taste these crafts."

Qin Wuran was slightly stunned, and then sighed a little awkwardly: "Speaking of which, my grandfather's greatest wish in life is to restore the dishes in that cookbook, and now I am about to make it, and I still haven't reacted when I think about it." ”

"I remember you're a third of the way back, how can you call it fast?" Shen Linzhou deliberately quipped, and then looked at her with a little more tenderness and affection in his eyes that he didn't even notice.

"We still have a long way to go, but we won't be at the end so soon."
