After being encouraged by Yao Shu, Shen Fugui felt that he was becoming more and more motivated.

He concentrated on studying the learning content, and Yao Shu also began to think about how to connect the Silk Road.

But she had no clue, so she simply put the matter behind her.

Seeing that the Lantern Festival was coming soon, Jiutian Restaurant began to develop glutinous rice balls, yuanxiao and lanterns. These contents were put into the menu two days in advance, and the response was extremely good.

On the morning of the Lantern Festival, the queen suddenly summoned Yao Shu into the palace again.

She and the Shen family felt very strange. The Shen family didn't do anything this time. Why was the queen so sudden?

However, once it comes, let's make peace with it.

She took some glutinous rice balls and yuanxiao and went to the palace.

The queen seemed to be in a good mood today and also wore a red dress. The difference from last time was that beside her stood Princess Chang An.

When she saw Yao Shu appearing in front of the two of them, Princess Chang An waved her hands quickly.

It's just that the queen is still here, so she doesn't dare to move too much.

Seeing the interaction between the two people, the queen sighed helplessly: "It seems that you two are old acquaintances."

When Yao Shu heard this, she quickly saluted: "The woman is just a commoner, how dare she be compared with the princess? The princess just came to the tavern to eat a few times, so she became familiar with the woman. I also hope that the queen Please don’t punish me, I don’t have other thoughts.”

Seeing her being so cautious, Princess Chang An couldn't help herself: "Mother, please don't scare Mrs. Shen like this."

The Empress was also extremely helpless: "Mrs. Shen, there is no need to be so nervous. I am only bothering Mrs. Shen to come to the palace this time to thank Mrs. Shen for her help. I heard from Chang An that if Mrs. Shen hadn't helped me that day, I'm afraid I still can’t find the money bag.”

After hearing this, Yao Shu no longer refused, but agreed to what the queen said.

"Your Majesty's words are serious. It's just a simple matter. If the princess really encounters a pickpocket in the restaurant and causes the purse to be lost, it will also be the restaurant's responsibility. So now that the purse has been recovered, there is no need to worry anymore." Yao Shu finished speaking and then continued, "But from now on, I will strengthen the defense in the restaurant regularly to prevent this situation from happening again."

Seeing Yao Shu's assurance, the Queen gave up and nodded: "Mrs. Shen is interested. After hearing Madam Shen's assurance, I will feel free to let the princess go to the restaurant in the future."

Then Yao Shu hurriedly presented the meal she brought to the Queen and said softly: "This is a little thought I brought to the Queen. It is also the signature dish in the restaurant and a new meal for the recent Lantern Festival. The Queen wants to come I have also eaten delicacies from mountains and seas, so this time I am showing off my shame."

Then, the Queen's personal maid immediately brought the lunch box to the Queen.

As soon as the lid was opened, the queen was immediately surprised by the aroma that hit her face.

"No wonder the princess is obsessed with the food in the restaurant. She didn't expect the food to be so delicious. You can already feel its fragrance even before you taste it. I really admire Mrs. Shen for making the restaurant look like this." After finishing speaking, , the queen immediately tasted it.

She was full of praise for the food, and her words were full of joy and appreciation.

Seeing that the Queen was so happy, Yao Shu also breathed a sigh of relief.

In fact, she had always had a bold idea in her mind, but she just didn't know how to proceed.

If the food delivery plan can be connected to the palace, wouldn't it be possible to make a lot of money again.

But it is indeed very difficult to implement this matter.

This is a heavily guarded palace. If anyone could come and go at will, it would be a slap in the emperor's face.

Moreover, in matters in the palace, one should be careful at all times. What's more, if something goes wrong with the food you put in your mouth, it could lead to death.

Therefore, it is generally forbidden to have any transactions with the outside world in the palace. If you want to taste it, you can only go out secretly, or just send things in with money.

While Yao Shu was still meditating, the queen had already tasted all the food.

After all, there are still outsiders here, and the queen is embarrassed to eat all the food.

"I didn't expect that the food in the restaurant is really good. If Mrs. Shen has such ability, it would be better to come directly to the palace. It just so happens that my palace also needs a cook to lead it. I wonder if Mrs. Shen has any ideas."

Hearing this, Yao Shu quickly shook her head.

"Thank you for your great love, the Queen. It's just that the things in this restaurant can't be dealt with for the time being, so I guess I can't be qualified for this position. If the Queen likes it, you can send me to the palace at any time in the future. Until then, the Queen The empress only needs to bring out a list of the meals she wants to eat, and the restaurant will prepare the meals and bring them over." Yao Shu saluted.

Naturally, it was impossible for her to serve in the palace. Although it sounded glamorous, she was actually not qualified for the job.

Seeing the time passing by, Yao Shu was also a little anxious.

There were still many things to deal with in the restaurant, but the Queen remained unhurried and seemed to have no intention of letting her go.

Looking at the princess beside the Empress, Yao Shu seemed to realize the real purpose of the Empress summoning her to the palace at this time.

It must also be to dissuade him from getting too close to the princess, after all, there is a huge difference in status.

This is because the princess is still here at this time, so there is no way to speak.

After a while, the queen casually thought of a way to ask her personal maid to temporarily distract the princess, and then turned to look at Yao Shu.

The smile on the queen's face slowly disappeared, replaced by factors and indifference.

"Actually, the reason why I summoned Mrs. Shen to the palace this time is not just to taste the food of Jiutian Restaurant, but also because I want to discuss the princess's marriage with Mrs. Shen."

Hearing this, Yao Shu's heart trembled: "Back to the Empress, our Shen family thinks we are not on the stage, so there is no way to compare with the princess. My son has not had any thoughts about the princess. I hope the Empress can open up. On the one hand, don’t hold the Shen family responsible. If the Queen has any further instructions, the Shen family will obey them to the letter."

After hearing this, a look of anxiety appeared on the queen's face: "I don't mean that. I want Mrs. Shen to make suggestions. Recently, the Minister of Rites has taken the initiative to ask for help, hoping to give his son to the princess as the consort. I Naturally, I don’t want the princess to marry the Minister of Rites and his family. After all, their family has always been very ambitious, and I am worried that they will take advantage of the princess.”

Hearing this, Yao Shu breathed a sigh of relief.
