Secrets of Yuqing Palace

The four of them gradually became familiar with each other in Baohuaxuan.

With Huang Cheng's intentional interaction, the three of them had a very good impression of him.

Based on the suggestions of Wanyu and Amur, Huang Cheng selected several pieces of jewelry that could be used as birthday gifts.

After they picked out a few items themselves, the four of them paid the bill and left Baohuaxuan.

Shi Liha smiled and looked at Huang Cheng, "I'm honored to meet you today. I wonder if Master Huang Cheng has any other plans?"

"If not, you can come with my three siblings and take a tour of the capital today."

"What do you think, Master Huang Cheng?"

Shi Wanyu also looked at the other party with sparkling eyes.

"Yes, the capital is prosperous and has many interesting places."

"Third brother happens to be free today. He is the most familiar with the city, so let him take us to broaden our horizons."

Huang Cheng smiled faintly, "That's exactly what I want."

"Life is full of encounters. Meeting you all here today is a heaven-sent fate."

Seeing this, Shi Liha patted Master Lin on the shoulder generously and said, "Then it's settled."

After agreeing, Shi Liha really took them for a stroll on the streets of Beijing.

The four of them walked together, passing through the streets and alleys of the capital, chatting and laughing.

Shi Liha introduced enthusiastically as he walked.

Taking them through various shops, the two girls were dazzled by the dazzling array of goods.

Stop occasionally to admire the interesting vendors and sample the street food.

Wanyu and Amur were so excited that they bought a lot of strange and unusual things.

Especially Wanyu, as a lady from a noble family, her family usually has strict requirements. Although compared with other sisters in the mansion, she is the freest.

But compared with the freer and more harmonious 21st century, she still often feels suffocated and helpless.

This is the first time I've eaten street food.

She felt like she was about to be sublimated.

It’s not because the food is so delicious, but because of the feeling of freedom that makes her greedy.

As the four people became more and more interested, the maids and servants behind them held more and more things in their hands.

Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, Shi Liha stopped at a place.

He pointed to a place not far away and said, "That restaurant is a well-known old brand in Beijing. The dishes are unique in flavor."

"Sister and Amur have lived in the capital for a long time. I brought you here before. You should still remember."

"Mr. Huang Cheng, I heard that your family lives in Shengjing. Why don't we go there to have a taste?"

Huang Cheng seemed a little hesitant, then he shook his head.

"Since it's a time-honored restaurant, I can eat here anytime I'm in the capital."

"Come to think of it, I do know of a private restaurant that I stumbled upon when I was in the capital."

“The dishes there are exquisite and unique, and they taste just as good as those in ordinary restaurants. They are also quieter and far better than the hustle and bustle of restaurants.”

"Every time I come to the capital, I always go to that restaurant to satisfy my appetite. How about we go there?"

"I don't know when we'll meet again, but I wanted to take this opportunity to share my recommendations with you three so you can have more options in the future."

Wanyu asked curiously, "Oh? What kind of restaurant is this that caught Mr. Huang Cheng's eye?"

Huang Cheng smiled mysteriously: "This restaurant is hidden in a corner of the downtown area. It's not very conspicuous, but it has extraordinary culinary skills."

"Especially the signature dishes there, each one is ingeniously prepared. I can guarantee that you will have a unique experience."

Upon hearing this, Wanyu and others were naturally full of anticipation and curiosity.

There are five city military divisions in the city, which are responsible for public security and patrols in the capital, ensuring safety and order inside and outside the capital.

In addition, they also brought guards with them on this trip, so they didn't have to worry about anyone with ulterior motives.

So he readily agreed to Huang Cheng's proposal.

Huang Cheng also mentioned the private restaurant deliberately.

As the crown prince, Yinreng would leave the palace every month and was not unfamiliar with the capital.

He had been to the restaurant that Shi Liha mentioned, and he also knew who was behind the restaurant.

But he didn't want to reveal his identity, so naturally he couldn't go to that restaurant for dinner.

That's why he suggested that the three siblings go to a private restaurant.

This was one of the dowries left by Empress Hesheli. It had been almost twenty years since her death, and not many people knew about it, so it was kept extremely secret.

Moreover, it was not a private restaurant before. He was the one who had it converted into a restaurant.

The chefs here are all imperial chefs who have offended someone in the palace or are unwilling to continue working as chefs in the palace.

Through his efforts, he recruited these people into his own forces and then arranged them here.

Huang Cheng led them through several alleys and came to a quiet courtyard.

As soon as they entered the restaurant, they were attracted by the chic environment, which was in sharp contrast to the hustle and bustle outside.

The courtyard is filled with rockery, flowing water, and the fragrance of flowers, creating a unique paradise.

When the waiter inside the door saw Huang Cheng and was about to kneel down to salute him, he was stopped by Huang Cheng with a look.

【master!】

"Mr. Huang...Mr. Huang is here."

Huang Cheng smiled and said, "I am here with my friends today. Is there any private room available?"

The waiter immediately said respectfully, "Yes, yes, yes. I'll take you to the private room right away."

Shi Liha looked at the waiter's familiarity with Huang Cheng and jokingly said, "Hahaha...it seems the food in this restaurant is really good."

"I also believe that Mr. Huang comes here often. Even the waiter is so familiar with him."
