Emperor Jingning held the teacup and slowly blew away the hot steam from it.

He took a sip of tea and glanced at Prince An who was sitting opposite him: "This time, the envoy from the State of Chen is coming, and you will be responsible for receiving him."

Prince An paused as he was about to take the cake, his voice full of disbelief.

"why?"

He had been busy with the affairs of the State of Chen before, and his royal brother had clearly said that he would let him have a good rest for a while.

It's only been a short time, and you're telling him to do something again?

Besides, when did entertaining foreign envoys become his job?

When the envoys from the State of Chen came to Daliang, shouldn't it be the people from the Ministry of Rites who received them?

There are so many people in the Ministry of Rites, it will never be his turn.

If he accepted the job at the Ministry of Rites, who would receive the salary from the Ministry of Rites?

We can't let him work for nothing, right?

Wait, could it be that my brother did this on purpose?

He said that he should have a good rest for a while, but in fact he couldn't bear to see him rest at all.

The more Prince An thought about it, the more he felt it made sense, and the more aggrieved he felt.

He knew it! !

The emperor must be jealous of him!!

Otherwise, why would he take away someone else's job and ask him to do it?

How did he end up with such a brother who couldn't stand seeing others doing well?

No, I really can't stand this.

He wanted to complain to his mother.

I also want to go and complain to the emperor, and ask him to enter my brother's dream tonight to teach him a lesson.

Yes, do it!!

It would be best if my father could bring all the ancestors of the Xiao family into my brother’s dream and have them attack him together.

Let’s see if he dares to bully others like this again in the future.

Emperor Jingning glanced at Prince An indifferently, knowing that he was acting in his mind again.

He was too lazy to pay attention to his dramatic brother and continued to drink his tea slowly.

Just when Prince An had already thought about how to file a complaint, Emperor Jingning said lightly:

"This time, the list of envoys from the State of Chen coming to Daliang includes the Crown Prince of Prestige. Isn't he your good friend?"

Prince An was stunned. Nangong Yixian was going to follow the Chen State delegation to Daliang?

He really didn't know about it.

Since the Chen State issue was resolved, Prince An and Nangong Yixian have not been in contact for some time.

Actually this is normal.

The State of Chen was in the midst of a power transition, and Nangong Yixien was very busy, so naturally he couldn't take care of anything else.

As for Prince An, he is also very busy...

When Emperor Jingning agreed to give Prince An a vacation, he completely let loose.

Every day I take my wife and children out to eat and drink, and I have a very happy life.

If Emperor Jingning hadn't suddenly mentioned it, Prince An would have almost forgotten about Nangong Yixian.

Emperor Jingning: "A good friend has come to Daliang. Wouldn't it be unreasonable for you not to entertain him?"

King An:......

That’s not the case.

Nangong Yixian is already a grown-up, can't he take care of himself after coming to Daliang?

This time Nangong Yixien came to Daliang, so it was okay to reminisce with him in private.

But the task of entertaining the envoys should be left to the people of the Ministry of Rites.

He had other things to do himself.

Prince An was about to refuse: "My Royal Brother, this job of entertaining envoys..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Emperor Jingning.

"I remember you mentioned before that Nangong Yixian said the food in Daliang couldn't compare to that in Chen State."

After Emperor Jingning said this, Prince An finally remembered.

Nangong Yixian did say this at the time, and in a sarcastic tone.

He said that Daliang has such a strong national strength, but has not developed any food culture that matches its national strength.

He also said that Daliang’s food preparation methods were simple, the taste was not very good, and it was not delicate enough.

Because of this incident, the young and hot-tempered Prince An almost got into a fight with Nangong Yixien.

Thinking about it now, Prince An is still a little angry.

Haha, they actually said that people in Daliang have no pursuit of food.

This time, let Nangong Yixian open his eyes and take a good look at what real food is.

"Don't worry, my royal brother. I'll leave this mission to you, your humble servant."

Prince An made up his mind that this time he must let Nangong Yixian experience the power of Daliang cuisine.

Return all the sarcasm and ridicule that Nangong Yixian had received back then.

Emperor Jingning smiled with satisfaction: "I always trust Ah Yan to do things."

His younger brother is sometimes really easy to talk to.

Shen House

Shen Huazheng looked through the information sent by Lord Huang, which was basically this year's Sinong Temple production increase plan.

Due to floods in the south before, some land was washed away and needed to be reclaimed.

However, this is just a general notice, and the specific regulations have not yet been released.

The people from the Shanglin Bureau will only cooperate after the specific matters come out.

There will be a meeting within the Sinong Temple in the next two days, and these matters should be discussed at that time.

Shen Huazheng put the information aside, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

After returning to the capital, she lay down for a while.

Basically, apart from one or two times when he was specifically called by Emperor Jingning to attend the morning court, he would only go to the Shanglin Office occasionally.

Fortunately, the subordinates of the Shanglin Bureau are very capable and have done a great job in completing the tasks assigned to them.

Yipintang, Food Street and Lianxiangzhai were all back on track, and there was basically nothing for her to worry about.

The days of being a salted fish are really comfortable and fast.

But, things might get busy again.

Shen Huazheng took another sip of tea and sighed inwardly.

In his position, seek his position.

Since you get a salary and various benefits, just keep busy.

Before getting busy, you always have to treat yourself to something delicious.

But what to eat?

You can eat some food that is only available in spring.

As soon as Zhou Ying came in, she saw Shen Huazheng holding her chin, looking like she was thinking.

She couldn't help but exclaimed softly: "Zheng'er, what are you thinking about?"

Could it be that Zheng'er has thought of some new and unusual food?

Shen Huazheng was delighted to see Zhou Ying coming.

"Cousin Ying, how about we use the leaves and flowers of the locust tree to make food?"
