Yinzhen sighed: "The grill is out of oil."
"How about I do it?"
Tong Cheng'er shook her head, let go of the skewer of mushrooms, then picked up a skewer of meat, first brushed a layer of oil on the grill, and then put the meat on.
This time it was alright. She flipped the meat frequently, but it didn't burn. When it was almost done, she grabbed some cumin from the plate and sprinkled it on top. Then, she sprinkled too much cumin, and flames shot up from the meat. Tong Cheng'er was startled and took a step back.
She retreated right into Yinzhen's arms.
Yinzhen embraced her, then took the meat from her and began to grill it.

Having heard these remarks over a long period of time, the Fourteenth Prince instinctively disliked Yinzhen and Tong Cheng'er.
So he didn't know why he said that, and he regretted it as soon as he said it.
The Fourteenth Prince felt a little scared, but he couldn't bring himself to admit defeat. He didn't think he was wrong, but he didn't dare to go against his usually dignified older brother, Yinzhen.
The thirteenth prince, standing next to the fourteenth prince, quickly said, "Fourth brother, mine is burnt, can you take a look?"
