After a while, several ministers who originally wanted to remind Su Jinyue to be respectful and polite were overwhelmed by the strong aroma of food.

"Gao"

"Crack, bang, bang, bang"

"Tingwei Cheng, give me some more."

"I don't have any more. Go find Meng Shangqingyun over there."

"He's also gone. He just asked me to share it with him. I should have known not to share it with him."

For the first time, several ministers who had always been dignified whispered in the court hall about matters other than government affairs.

The ministers sitting in other seats in the hall looked towards their corner speechlessly.

We know you're being quiet, but listen to how loud you're chewing! It's just too much!

While being angry, the other ministers silently picked up the snacks on their desks, put them in their mouths, and thought to themselves that they would ask their wives at home to prepare some food and bring it back in case of emergency.

"Your Majesty has arrived, kneel!"

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

That’s right, the kneeling ceremony has now been replaced by shouts of “Long live Fusu”, and Su Jinyue hides behind Fusu, keeping his merits and fame hidden.

Wang Wan quickly swallowed the food in his mouth, stepped forward, and reported to Ying Zheng on the progress of promoting the salt-drying method in the ditches of Langya County.

Ying Zheng looked at them speechlessly. "You smell it, you smell it yourself. I can smell the aroma of the drunkard's fried beans from such a long distance away."

He turned and frowned at Su Jinyue. This time, Su Jinyue was convinced that she hadn't misunderstood him. She quietly stretched out her hand on the table, made an OK gesture, and mouthed a reply: "Don't worry, good daddy, I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

Ying Zheng closed his eyes, turned his face to the other side, and took a deep breath.

When Su Jinyue saw this, she sighed in her heart: Oh, she's angry again. A man's heart is as unpredictable as a needle in the sea. He gets so jealous over a handful of fried beans. How stingy.

Complaints aside, after leaving court, Su Jinyue immediately sent a huge portion of Drunkard's Fried Beans to the Qinzheng Hall, along with a freshly made simple version of rice crust.

By the time of lunch at 3 p.m., fresh steamed buns came out of the oven. The plump white buns immediately captured Su Ji's heart.

Making steamed buns is easy, but making the flour is difficult. Flour-grinding technology was outdated, and the simple stone mill invented by Lu Ban was still used. Producing smooth, white, and delicate flour required the combined efforts of more than a dozen palace servants.

Su Jinyue didn't want to be so extravagant, so she had to find the Shaofu Ling and ask the craftsmen to make an upgraded stone mill, which saved a lot of labor.

Yeast is even easier to obtain, so just keep the old dough.

So, at lunch that day, in addition to the stir-fried dishes sent by Su Jinyue, there was also a plate of white, plump and round noodles on Ying Zheng's table.

Ying Zheng took a steamed bun, opened his mouth and took a bite. It was soft, sweet and had an excellent taste. What was even more rare was that it was extremely filling.

The palace servant who was waiting nearby introduced it at the right time: "This thing is called steamed bun. The Third Princess specifically instructed this old servant to serve it to Your Majesty while it's still hot."

"reward!"

With Ying Zheng's order, Su Jinyue became rich again.

In the spirit of "happiness is shared by all", Su Jinyue asked people to deliver the remaining two baskets of steamed buns to Fusu and Muyang's palaces respectively, and asked them not to forget to inform the other party of the news of her reward.

Fusu was very happy to eat the steamed buns. Thinking that his many sisters and brothers were still young, the steamed buns were just right for them at this age. So he waved his hand and distributed the steamed buns to the princesses and princes everywhere for everyone to share.

The steamed buns were distributed everywhere, and the news of Su Jinyue's reward spread throughout the palace.

The soft steamed buns were loved by everyone, but the news of her favor brought bad luck to some people and even brought some troubles to Su Jinyue later.

The news that the third princess was generously rewarded by His Majesty for her steamed buns, along with the method of making the steamed buns, spread, which completely awakened the taste buds of the people in the entire Xianyang city.

It turns out that pasta can be cooked this way.

Now that we have steamed buns, are flower rolls and dumplings far behind?

The people of Xianyang City tell you that it won’t happen.

Only ten days later, the people of Xianyang City had created flower rolls, flower cakes, steamed buns, and even the prototype of buns.

Sure enough, the pursuit of delicious food is the most primitive desire engraved in people's bones, and the same is true for making delicious food.

So, let Su Jinyue bring you a little food shock again.

The cooks in the kitchen were extremely busy and happy.

Just when I had mastered steamed buns and flower rolls, the third princess came with new tricks.

Baozi is so simple yet so difficult to make. The cooks in the room could only successfully make three baskets of qualified ones in an afternoon.

Su Jinyue raised her voice and ordered, "Your Majesty, the eldest son, Wangshu Palace, and the Thirteenth Son each have one copy, and the rest are for everyone to use as they please."

"Okay, thank you, Third Princess!"

Happy times always seem extremely short, and the noodle trend started by Su Jinyue is still spreading.

The old man on the ox cart was almost torn apart.

The old man tiredly asked the young man driving the cart, "Zhishou, how long will it take to get there?"

The young man gazed into the distance and replied, "Master, we'll be there in a few hours. Master, take a nap first, and I'll call you when we get there."

"Okay, Shishou, call me."

Xindu County, Julu Commandery, was originally the secondary capital of the State of Zhao. Many common people still call themselves Zhao people. In Yunmeng Mountain, deep in the mountains near this secondary capital, there is a lecture cave. Legend has it that this is where Guiguzi practiced Taoism and taught his disciples. This is also the destination the old man wants to go to.

At this time, there were indeed a few old men with gray hair in the lecture cave, sitting opposite each other, drinking tea and chatting.

The oldest of the group counted on his fingers and whispered, "Guests are coming."

"Oh? Senior brother, do you know who it is?"

"My master said: There is a way to separate and unite, and to follow one's will first. This is the value of being comprehensive when opening, and the value of being subtle when closing. Comprehensiveness and subtlety are the values ​​of subtlety, and they are in line with the Tao."

Another younger disciple suddenly understood, "I know, it's Brother Hezhui who has returned."

As soon as he finished speaking, the mooing of an old cow was heard outside the cave. An old man with white hair named Yu Yu walked into the cave alone, and several people immediately went to greet him.

"Brother Hezhui, did you gain anything from your trip to Yunmeng Mountain in Sanchuan County?"

The old man sat on the side, his face pale and dejected. "Have you ever observed the stars?"

The old man who had calculated earlier nodded slightly, "The stars are changing drastically, the Purple Star is positive, Senior Brother, you must not go against the will of heaven."

"Defying Heaven? What do you mean by defying Heaven?" He Zhui suddenly erupted in anger. "It's clearly the King of Qin who defied Heaven. The astrological signs were already predicted, yet they suddenly changed drastically in recent days. It must be the King of Qin who rebelled against the Heavenly Gang. You and I should rectify the chaos and get back to the source!"

The other person looked at He Zhui helplessly, "Brother, why are you so persistent?"

"Zhou Wei! How dare you! Have you forgotten Master's last wish? Have you forgotten the art of Bi He that Master taught you?"

He Zhui glared at the other party and looked around, "You guys think so too?"

Two of them stood out and walked silently behind Zhou Wei.

"Good! Good! Good! You go, we will carry on the Zongheng family's prosperity!"

Zhou Wei and the other two bowed deeply to him and slowly left the cave.
