What Wan Xiepei had not expected was that the letter was delivered to Kyoto on the tenth day of July. It had only been circulated in Kyoto for a few days at first, and on the sixteenth day of July, just after the Ghost Festival, it actually returned to Yuhua Palace?
Just like the Second Prince was presenting a treasure, he invited the Saint to a tomato banquet in Chu Jieyu's palace, and said that this was a popular way of eating in the capital recently, and all the meals cooked were sweet and sour, refreshing and delicious.
It’s just right to eat this in summer.
After the saint had eaten, everyone praised him and said that the second prince was thoughtful. He knew that people in summer did not eat well, so he came to find the recipe. He was really a filial son.
Even Concubine Chu was praised, and they were all having a great time.
The eldest prince had a look of resentment on his face.
I think the second prince is a flatterer, but he said that he is filial and is so anxious for his father. He is anxious to do things for his father. Does that count as flattery?
That's filial piety!
The two parties took advantage of this incident to go back and forth.
Only the people in the Third Prince's side hall had strange expressions on their faces. No matter whether they were guards or palace servants, they all had some indescribable feeling.
To put it in Su Wan’s words, are you guys okay?
Why do I like to follow Xie Pei and do things?
And the Second Prince, when you presented your treasure, didn’t you ever think about where the recipe came from?
Wait, where did that come from?
Su Wan immediately looked at Xie Pei, only to see Xie Pei with a calm and innocent look on his face: "I just wanted to do a good deed anonymously, who knew that the Second Prince didn't investigate further."
In other words, if you look deeper, you will definitely find something abnormal.
But the second prince was eager to present his treasure, so he was not so cautious.
But if you are not careful, you will fall into a trap.
After all, the Second Prince had made a big fuss to show his filial piety by presenting such a good recipe, and the Saint also followed suit with a few words of praise to overshadow Xie Pei.
Wouldn't it be very interesting if someone told the Second Prince and the Saint at this time that the recipe actually came from someone close to Xie Pei?
Who were the saints praising for filial piety and thoughtfulness in the past?
Xie Pei only did one thing, which was to prevent others from telling that the recipe came from him.
In fact, Xie Pei was just trying it out.
After all, this year in Yuhua Palace, apart from the gift of assassination that came as a gift right at the start, everything else was about food.
Then they must want to make up for it in food.
Such an excellent tomato feast recipe is indeed enough to tempt them.
After Su Wan sighed, she subconsciously said, "Then when will it be made clear that the tomato feast recipe came from here?"
After finishing speaking, Su Wan said, "Wouldn't it be more interesting to let the eldest prince make it clear?"
The eldest prince was not very happy about the second prince's attention, so he was asked to pick out the recipe that was not written by the second prince but by Xie Pei. I guess he would definitely agree.
He has never been very smart.
But this matter must be done without telling Concubine Jiang.
Xie Pei looked at Su Wan with a smile: "This is easy, he will definitely be eager to expose it."
The guard Zang Dongxin next to him was dumbfounded.
While the Third Prince was chatting and laughing with Miss Su Wan, he had already manipulated those princes and their staff in the palm of his hand?
Just relying on a recipe?
Although this tomato feast recipe is really amazing, it is no exaggeration to say that it is worth a fortune.
But it’s quite amazing.
The Third Prince is fine, after all, he is the heir to the throne. He has suffered many hardships since childhood, so it is normal for him to have a fierce mind.
But what about Su Wan?
What's wrong with Su Wan! Aren't they smarter than a little kid?
But speaking of it, from stone frogs to iced drinks, to the current tomato recipes, it is always Su Wan and the Third Prince who lead everyone. Whatever they like, that becomes popular in the Yuhua Palace.
Such ability is rare.
Su Wan herself didn’t think so much about it. She made stone frogs because they were delicious, and she made ice cream because she wanted to save the frogs.
The final tomato feast was purely an accident.
But she was still happy to watch the show if it could make fun of some people.
To put it bluntly, among all these princes, she is most familiar with Xie Pei and naturally hopes that Xie Pei can ascend the throne. If she can help a little bit, it would definitely be possible!
Although Xie Pei said that all these were her achievements, Su Wan was not so proud. She just said, "Whenever the good show starts, I can't wait to see it."
The good show I'm talking about is naturally the fact that the eldest prince ruthlessly exposed the fact that the tomato recipe that the second prince used to present his treasure actually came from Xie Pei.
Taking credit for your competitor's achievements, who should get the credit for?
So, just as the saint was happily enjoying his second tomato feast, the eldest prince suddenly appeared and triumphantly exposed the matter.
The expressions on everyone's faces at that time were so wonderful.
Concubine Chu felt as disgusted as if she had swallowed a fly.
Why is it Xie Pei, why is it Xie Pei again!
As for the saint's previous praise of filial piety and intelligence, it was like a boomerang. Originally, it was meant to praise the second prince, but now it has all turned into praising Xie Pei?
The saint's expression was not much better than that of the Second Prince, Concubine Chu.
Only the eldest prince was almost slapped by Concubine Jiang who rushed over.
Who is being disgusted by this statement?
Can I take advantage of it?
Now the Second Prince has no credit, so what about Xie Pei? Didn't Xie Pei get something for nothing?!
It was such a wonderful show that Su Wan ate the melon throughout the whole process. At the end, she suddenly touched a different fruit with a hint of ice on it.
Su Wan sat up straight immediately.
This, this is lychee?! Lychee from Lingnan?!
