The little princess didn't say until she had finished all the cooked meat in the pot, "By the Moon Goddess, it's delicious! I've never tasted anything like this before, nor have I ever tried it this way of cooking."
"This spicy flavor is so delicious, I want to eat it again and again, and the tomato flavor is just so unique..." The little princess added some more meat and then launched into a long and detailed critique.
Xu Yuehuai smiled and then put a lot of vegetables on her plate: "Eat less spicy food, you need to eat more vegetables and more light food, okay?"
Although the little princess seemed carefree and playful, she was also quick-witted. Suddenly, she was made such delicious food and told to eat more vegetables. Was she going to leave? Thinking of this, the little princess's heart skipped a beat and she instantly became sad.
The food in her mouth no longer tasted good, so she put down her chopsticks and bowl, just about to ask the question that was on her mind.
Xu Yuehuai spoke first: "Little princess, I have compiled all the dishes I know into recipes and given them to the head chef. Don't worry, he will make you all sorts of delicious food in the future, and we will meet again when we have the chance."
The little princess was still a little sad, but then, as if she had thought of something, she slammed her hand on the table and said, "When I get married in the future, I must marry someone from the Central Plains. The food there is so delicious."
Xu Yue's expression was unreadable.
She didn't say anything and continued eating. This time, the little princess ate a lot of vegetables and noodles.
"This dish tastes so good now that it's cooked in your pot!" The little princess praised as she ate, looking very satisfied and happy.
After receiving care from Xu Yuehuai, the little princess did indeed improve a lot, and even her complexion looked very different from before.
Actually, the little princess has been going through a lot of inner turmoil these days, but she has now opened her heart and is willing to make peace with herself.
So when Xu Yuehuai saw the little princess again, she was no longer as willful as before.
The little princess lowered her head, reluctant to say goodbye: "I know you are leaving. Although I am reluctant to let you go, you must have things you want to do. I can't force you to stay here."
Hearing this, Xu Yuehua nodded slightly, a cold smile on her face: "Yes, I have things to do now, and my home is not here. I think the princess will find what she wants to do in the future."
Xu Yuehuai then left all the methods she had previously devised to the kitchen, and instructed them: "You can't eat greasy food for a long time, it's bad for the princess's health and also bad for her appetite."
She then pointed to a piece of paper on the table: "Everything is written on this. You can start coming up with new ideas now."
The head chef expressed his gratitude to Xu Yuehuai for everything she had done: "From now on, the little princess's daily life will be handled by us again. Don't worry, it won't be a repeat of the past."
Now that the matter concerning the little princess has been resolved, Xu Yuehuai is preparing to return to Chang'an.
After experiencing some setbacks, Maimaiti's crooked thoughts began to emerge, especially now that he had found Qi Guze.
Although Qi Guze possesses many skills, he is far too cunning. Moreover, being a man from the Central Plains, he is of little use and may even cause them harm.
The reason Xu Yuehuai rushed through all these things was that she wanted to return to Chang'an City.
Someone in Chang'an needs to keep a close eye on these developments at all times.
But Maimaiti decided to cut off this escape route and began to sow discord in front of the king: "Your Majesty, I also have a request. Although Xu Yuehuai has restored the little princess's appetite and made a great contribution, everything will change if she leaves."
"Just a woman." The king thought it was quite remarkable that a woman could have such abilities, and that such abilities were rare. As for the variables involved, there was no way to say.
While the king hesitated, Maimaiti kept adding fuel to the fire: "She certainly won't have much of an impact, but don't forget Qi Guze."
"So we absolutely cannot let Xu Yuehuai go at this time. If Qi Guze becomes uncontrollable and no longer a threat to us, it will be a huge loss for our Mingyue Kingdom." As he spoke, he kept maximizing the benefits, and gradually the king began to think.
The king frowned, touched his chin, and thought for a long time before speaking: "I have already agreed to let them leave. If I suddenly go back on my word, this matter will be difficult to handle."
Maimaiti knew that as a king, he could not take back his words. If the king agreed, he would find a way to keep the person there.
"If it's really as you say, then we still need to find a way to keep it. Go and see if it's still not too late." The king didn't make any strong demands; he just hoped that Maimaiti could get this done.
However, they never expected that while they were planning to forcibly keep him there, Xu Yuehuai had already left the Mingyue Kingdom with the help of Qi Guze and Pei Xuan.
Maimaiti was furious about this. He went to the residence and found it empty. He was enraged: "What exactly happened? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on things? Now that everyone's gone, why didn't you come and tell me?"
“Impossible. We’ve been keeping watch here the whole time. We haven’t seen anyone go out unless they escaped in some other way.” The person keeping watch had no idea where the problem was and looked completely bewildered.
Upon hearing this, Maimaiti clenched his fists, extremely angry. He knew that Qi Guze must have been behind this.
"Let's go to the city gate now, maybe we can still stop them. We've raised you for so long, and you can't even keep an eye on one person!" Even though he was very angry, he could only keep thinking about what to do next.
But to his surprise, as soon as he arrived at the city gate, he discovered that Qi Guze had come from outside. In an instant, Maimaiti understood everything.
Unable to suppress her anger any longer, she strode forward and pointed at him, saying, "I knew this had to do with you. You're the one who helped Xu Yuehuai leave the Mingyue Kingdom, aren't you?"
"So what?" But Qi Guze felt that this was just a normal thing and had not violated any rules. "I think you're overthinking it. The king has already allowed Xu Yuehuai to leave and hasn't said anything else."
Upon hearing this, Maimaiti started arguing with him, and the two engaged in a verbal battle.
