After she went back, she washed up and lay on the bed. Zhou Ying said dejectedly, I thought I could taste a real royal chefs cooking at the banquet and learn from it. 1 didnt expect the banquet to be so shabby.

Its already difficult to gather so many ingredients in such a year. Gu Chengrui shook his head.

Da Ming appeared to have calmed down at the time, but the ma.s.ses were still relying on the rice and flour they distributed. There was still a scarcity of meat.

Thats true, but to be honest, that stir-fried meat is sure great.

Yours doesnt lose out either.

Its different. To put it bluntly, 1 still rely on various seasonings to cook.

However, the chef relied on his skills.

So, you learned something from it?

Yeah, Ill try again later. I dont believe I cant cook as well as him. Itll do as long as its 90% similar.

I support you. Gu Chengrui quickly nodded.

However, he internally dreads the days of tasting dishes, as it would be painful.

It seemed that he had to drag Brother Zhou along. Didnt he like to eat Zhou Yings food? Let him come over and eat as much as he wants.

Oh, right; why do you think the Emperor put you under Princess Ping Yangs name? Is there some conspiracy?

Its hard to say. The Emperors mind is not simple, but we must be more careful in the future.

Oh, right, and that sister of yours. After suffering such a huge loss today, Im afraid she wont let you off easily.

Zhou Jiaqing is easy to deal with. Although she is ruthless, she doesnt scheme.

The troublesome one is her sister, Zhou Jiaying, who is also the concubine of the Fourth Prince.

Shell be a difficult woman to deal with. However, 1 heard that shes about to give birth, so Im sure she wont have time to care about these dramas for now.

If the eldest son is born from a concubine, the Fourth Prince will be in for a lot of fun. Gu Chengrui paused for a moment and gloatingly mocked.

It has nothing to do with us. But no matter what, lets not have anything to do with the Fourth Prince.

Theres no doubt about it. He didnt help us when the Gu family was raided or even when the First Prince suppressed us with the waterwheel incident. I wont forget about that.

Zhou Ying nodded and told him how Yang Wanning was almost tricked today. I suspect that the Empress is involved in this. We have to tread carefully.

Thats right. Back then, the First Princes party reported and raided the Gu familys home. There is no way the Empress would let Yang Wanning rise.

Im sure the Yang family will have a good show tonight. Pay attention to it later and see if Yang Wanning is worth helping.

Alright.

On the other hand, Zhou Huaiming didnt return to the Zhou Clan immediately after returning to his residence. Instead, he followed the Third Prince to his study.

After he sat down, Zhou Huaiming stepped forward and bowed solemnly. I, Zhou Huai Ming, pay my respects to King Rui. Long live, your Highness.

The Third Prince glanced at him and said, Thats enough. Its just a t.i.tle. Is there a need for that?

Why not? Zhou Huaiming sat down.

A prince is just an ident.i.ty, indicating that you are the Emperors son. A Kings t.i.tle is one of n.o.bility and holds real commanding power.

He asked in confusion, But why did the Emperor confer all three of you as kings today? Did he deprive all of you of the possibility of inheriting the throne?

Could it be that he has his eyes on the Seventh or the Ninth Prince inheriting?

Its hard to say. Maybe he wants to sit on the throne for a few more years.

After all, based on the First Princes current momentum, he will force the abdication in another two or three years even if the Emperor doesnt step down.

Serves him right. He was the one who single-handedly supported the Marquis of Dingan, the Sun family..
