At this time, the emperor also knew that if he could find Ye Lang, all problems would be solved, but at the same time, he also knew that it was almost impossible to find Ye Lang. If he could find him, the girl from the Ye family and his precious daughter would have calmed down long ago and would not have lost their temper there.
He also found this very magical. Although everyone knew that Ye Lang was nearby and had not left, they just couldn't find where he was. This was actually not the first time. Every time he would find himself in a place that others could not imagine.
This time, although Ye Lang did not deliberately hide from them, the place he was in was unexpected to others!
"I hope he won't do anything out of line this time. Just scare people, don't really do those things." The emperor said with a headache.
Why did this guy go to scare these people for no reason? Now he just left and left us to suffer!
"Well, I don't think so..." Ye Chengtian said without confidence.
"..." The group of ministers fell silent, and those whose daughters or granddaughters were among these talented women seemed to understand that they had to ensure that they had the utmost strength to protect them and not count on the royal family and the Ye family.
They were thinking, if Ye Lang really did those things, would they, as kings and parents, reward or punish him? Perhaps, but it would definitely not be severe.
"Hey, hey, he's your son, how could you not know?" The emperor seemed not to notice everyone's expressions and continued to chat with Ye Chengtian. No, it was a serious conversation between the monarch and his subject. That's what he said himself.
"How would I know? You know him well. Hasn't he done a lot of stupid things since he was a child?" Ye Chengtian shook his head helplessly.
"That's true. Let's not talk about this for now. We can talk about it when those things really happen. There is one thing that I am very curious about. Who is Zhen Xiaoyan? Why did that boy become so desperate to help her?" The emperor suddenly remembered this key person.
"Zhen Xiaoyan, I've checked. She is the granddaughter of Earl Zhen Tianming." Ye Chengtian replied. He knew that the emperor was asking about Zhen Xiaoyan's identity, and he should have heard other things from others.
The emperor thought hard, then said, "Oh, it's him. I have some impression of him. It seems that the Zhen family has been in the restaurant business for generations. Are they still doing it now?"
The Zhen family is actually not at the center of power in the empire, and it can be said that they cannot even reach the edge, so these people are actually not familiar with them. If it were not for this incident, it is estimated that no one here would notice the existence of the Zhen family. This is a lucky thing for the Zhen family, making their future path brighter.
The reason why the emperor had an impression of him was because the Zhen family used to be the royal chef. Because they were favored by an emperor, they obtained this hereditary title.
It's no wonder that people try every possible way to get close to people like the emperor, because as long as they like, they can make you glorious anytime and anywhere, and your descendants can enjoy their blessings. Of course, it may also bring about a disaster of extermination of the entire family, but there are still countless people willing to take these risks.
"It's still there, Zhen Youwei Restaurant, which is a century-old traditional restaurant in our Xiangkong Empire." Ye Chengtian replied.
Zhen Youwei, it is said that this is the imperial chef, and the restaurant is named after him. In addition, Zhen Youwei's cooking skills were the best in the world, so it was prosperous for a long time.
However, like some family businesses, the Zhen family's restaurant has risen and fallen with the ability of the family managers, and has declined in recent decades. Of course, this is only relative to the past. In the eyes of an ordinary person, the Zhen family is still a big family. Well, that's just in the eyes of an ordinary person!
"Let's not talk about this for now. I'm curious about one thing. Does Zhen Xiaoyan have the same cooking skills as her ancestors? Otherwise, why would your boy care so much about it? He has been indifferent to everything in the past few years. Even if it was his own business, he might not make such a big move." The emperor questioned.
"It is said that Zhen Xiaoyan's cooking skills are unique, and that's all she has." Although Ye Chengtian's answer was not very direct, it made it clear to everyone that apart from Zhen Xiaoyan's cooking skills, nothing else could attract his son.
"Chengtian, do you think we should also make a small bet and bet on Zhen Xiaoyan to win?" The emperor seemed to be more and more interested in the conversation, forgetting that he was still in the court.
"You think so too. I've already asked someone to bet 10,000 gold coins just for fun!" Ye Chengtian said with a smile.
"...You are so shameless!" The emperor looked at Ye Chengtian with contempt. After all, he was in the court, so he still paid some attention to his image.
Ye Chengtian seemed to understand what the emperor meant, and then replied with his eyes: "Same here..."
"Your Majesty, why do you think Zhen Xiaoyan will win? With her conditions, how could she possibly win?" A minister said indignantly. The reason why he was indignant was, of course, because he was the elder of one of the talented women.
Like him, there were some ministers who also expressed dissatisfaction with the emperor and Ye Chengtian's views. Of course, their dissatisfaction was not very strong, but it was an appropriate dissatisfaction.
"With Zhen Xiaoyan's conditions, it is simply impossible for her to win. The problem is that there is that magical boy from the Ye family. It is hard to predict the outcome." The emperor shook his head and smiled.
"Your Majesty, you can't let Ye Lang do whatever he wants. If that happens, I'll have no choice but to withdraw my granddaughter from the competition!"
"Yeah, if that's the case, we might as well all quit. It's better than letting him hurt our daughter."
…
"Don't worry, everyone. I won't let him break the rules. I will make sure this competition remains as fair as before. If you are afraid, then I will allow you to be the judges of this competition. That way you don't have to worry about anyone being bribed. Don't worry, I will send the most elite guards and city guards to protect your safety!" The emperor said immediately. He wanted to show that he did not favor anyone at this time. In fact, he had no intention of favoring anyone, but these ministers misunderstood.
What's the use of protecting him? That kid has been under such strict surveillance before, but he still managed to slip away time and time again. If he really wants to do something to you, I can't guarantee the outcome.
Ye Chengtian looked at the ministers who had calmed down and smiled secretly in his heart. He seemed to be proud of this matter. Although on the surface he would pretend to be serious and act as if he would do his best to protect these people.
