Yinzhen said, "Your Majesty, my wife had it made a few days ago, and it was only finished today. I tasted it and found nothing wrong, so I immediately sent it over to Father Emperor."
Kangxi was very satisfied, and nodded with a smile: "Liang Jiugong, bring it up."
Liang Jiugong: Yes, sir.
Liang Jiugong took the tray from Su Peisheng. After the young eunuch who was tasting the food found nothing wrong, the tray was placed in front of Kangxi.
Emperor Kangxi tried them all, including several cups of milk tea. Because of the variety, he only ate two bites of each.
After finishing the meal, Emperor Kangxi nodded reservedly: "The taste is acceptable."
The improved milk tea, in particular, has a unique flavor, but unfortunately, I couldn't fit it all in my stomach.
Other snacks also have their own unique flavors.
"Your wife really has a good appetite. It seems you're lucky to have such a delicious food. I've given her to you as your wife."
Yinzhen said, "It is thanks to Father Emperor's bestowal of this marriage that I have such good fortune. I thank Father Emperor."

I think they can be sold to the Jiangnan region, where such unique Mongolian foods are rare. I believe they will be very popular."
Upon hearing this, Kangxi looked at Yinzhen with a meaningful gaze, indicating that he did indeed have this intention in mind for this trip.
Mongolia was an ally of the Qing Dynasty. Its people were known for their fierce and warlike nature, and they were a nomadic people on horseback. However, due to geographical reasons, the grasslands were not very suitable for growing staple crops, resulting in an underdeveloped economy.
This has led to instability in Mongolia.
The fact that the imperial family had sent countless princesses and noblewomen to marry into the royal family was a thorn in Kangxi's side.
In particular, few princesses and noblewomen who married into Mongolia lived long lives, which was a thorn in Kangxi's side.
