“Princess Fu’an has come to offer her congratulations on the grand opening of Wei Man Zhai, wishing it great success and a constant stream of customers.”

This sentence instantly sparked a flurry of reactions from those around them.

Many shopkeepers and pedestrians who were curiously peeking out from behind these carriages were surprised to hear that a princess had come to drink.

People stopped to watch out of curiosity.

But today, the surprise on their faces was destined to be etched there.

As Princess Fu'an alighted from the carriage, the carriage was carried away, and another carriage came up behind.

Another announcement was made.

"Princess Zhao has come to offer her congratulations on the grand opening of Wei Man Zhai!"

princess!

She was actually a princess! My goodness.

What's the background of this restaurant?

Then they saw a graceful and elegant woman being helped down, and then she joined the woman who was said to be a princess, and was welcomed inside.

The cars behind slowly came up as well.

The briefing began again.

This time it's the eldest daughter of the Duke of Tang's family, then the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Shunyang's family, and the daughter of the Grand Tutor...

A whole string of daughters of high-ranking officials and nobles.

There were ten people who came, eight of whom were invited by Princess Fu'an to offer their congratulations.

Only Princess Zhao happened to meet him on the road.

The ten female guests were then ushered inside.

Before long, a group of people came carrying the plaque over, making a lot of noise.

The onlookers were still puzzled as they looked at the plaque that had already been hung up.

Then they heard the emperor's own handwritten plaque, and gasps of surprise rose and fell.

Then came the congratulatory gifts from the Empress Dowager and the Empress.

Even the princess and the prince came in person.

Let this gust of wind blow it away.

People who heard the news also took the opportunity of coming to eat to inquire about the information.

These people included many high-ranking officials and nobles, whose names had become so familiar to the common people that they had become numb to them.

This only fueled the curiosity of the onlookers about Wei Man Zhai.

Could this be a shop owned by His Majesty the Emperor?

With such pomp and style, who in the capital can compare?

Not to mention the onlookers, even the shop assistants were completely bewildered and numb as they greeted the customers.

From the initial fear and trepidation, I forced myself to welcome each distinguished guest into the restaurant.

In the end, he was able to maintain a calm smile.

Finding an excuse to go to the kitchen, Tu Wu rubbed his face vigorously and slapped it twice.

It feels like I'm dreaming.

The upper-class circles he used to dream of entering.

The high-ranking officials and nobles that I've been racking my brains to get in touch with have actually come to me today.

And they were all top-level figures.

Listen to this.

His Majesty the Emperor, Empress, Empress Dowager, Princess, Prince, Princess Consort, County Princess, Earl, Miss and Son of a Marquis's Mansion, etc.

These were people he had always dreamed of climbing up to, people he never even dared to think about.

He couldn't help but recall Zhou Xianheng's repeated emphasis: 'Our boss is more powerful than you can imagine; you'll never regret it later.'

Is this what you're referring to?

Forget regret, he probably regrets coming to him too late.

Of all the people in the restaurant, Zhou Xianheng was probably the only one who remained relatively calm.

Although he was initially surprised as well.

Fortunately, the reaction was relatively quick.

Fortunately, he was there to hold things together; otherwise, it would have been a laughing stock from the start.

They've all witnessed miracles, after all.

So what if they're royalty? Their master is a god descended from heaven.

Which nobleman can compare?

On this day, the Imperial Cuisine restaurant quickly became popular throughout the city because of the large gathering of royalty and nobility.

Whether they were officials, nobles, merchants, or ordinary people, everyone was inquiring about the background of this suddenly emerging Wei Man Zhai.

Then a small number of officials and nobles vaguely remembered.

Wei Man Zhai seems to be a business run by Yun Zhiyi of Lufeng City.

Based on the attitude of the imperial family members during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Yun Zhiyi did receive some attention for a while.

During that period, the number of spies in Lufeng City increased several times over.

However, most people didn't find out anything special.

All I know is that Yun Zhiyi's shops in Lufeng City are very successful.

Furthermore, there are claims that the food from Wei Man Zhai can cure diseases.

Even the spies themselves didn't believe it.

Even if you bring them back, your masters will scold you.

However, after learning that Yun Zhiyi had actually gone to the vegetable shop to sell vegetables herself.

Most people basically stopped paying attention to her situation.

After all, even if a lowly merchant who showed his face in public were truly favored by the Empress and married to Prince Qu, it would be a difficult situation.

At most, she could only be a concubine; she posed no threat to them.

Of course, now that Prince Cheng has been restored, it doesn't matter whether Yun Zhiyi will be married to Prince Qu by the Empress.

In any case, the throne will most likely still belong to Prince Cheng, and the women in their family will only marry Prince Cheng.

Even if Yun Zhiyi could become the Queen Consort of King Qu, they wouldn't care.

Who knew that even though they put it aside, Yun Zhiyi's name would resurface.

What still alarmed them was the attitude of the imperial family.

The plaque was bestowed by the emperor, and the empress dowager and empress personally delivered congratulatory gifts.

Princess, the Seventh Princess, and others personally came to the store to show their support.

Even the Queen Consort of Zhao, who was on the opposite side of King Qu, personally went to offer her congratulations.

This left everyone bewildered.

Even if Yun Zhiyi is truly favored by the Empress and becomes the principal wife of one of the princes...

It doesn't even warrant such a grand display.

Not to mention a princess, even an empress couldn't get this kind of treatment.

Those who reacted quickly sensed something was wrong and immediately sent younger family members to investigate.

Soon after, Yun Zhiyi's name became a sensation in the capital.

This time it really became a hit throughout Beijing.

The last Mid-Autumn Festival banquet only briefly generated buzz among the upper class.

Now it's become the talk of the town.
