After receiving instructions from his grandmother that day, Li Qingluo wrote a letter and asked the mute slaves to deliver it to Prince Su's Mansion.
So after receiving the news that Prince Su would definitely come, Li Qingluo went to the kitchen in person early in the morning.
She asked Cui'er and the nanny who was responsible for buying things for her grandmother to buy the vegetables personally.
Naturally, she was also planning to show off her cooking skills today, because she had discovered long ago that Prince Su seemed to like her cooking very much.
Although she didn't think her cooking skills were better than the chefs in the prince's mansion and the imperial palace, perhaps Prince Su had long been tired of delicacies from land and sea, and just liked to change his taste with some simple meals occasionally?
Li Qingluo specifically asked the nanny in her grandmother's kitchen for the recipe of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and started making the soup early in the morning.
In addition to her own specialties, she also asked the mute slaves in the mansion for some dishes from the Great Chu.
In the evening, a table full of delicious dishes was placed on the table.
Although it was early spring, Jinling City was still very cold, so there was a charcoal fire burning in the house, making the whole house warm so that the food would not get cold so quickly.
However, it was getting later and later, and the table of dishes was about to be taken away to be heated up again, when Prince Su finally hurried over.
"His Royal Highness Prince Su has arrived—"
Mrs. Pei immediately stood up with the help of Li Qingluo.
"Your Madam Pei——"
"Your servant Li Qingluo——"
"Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Su, may His Royal Highness live a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand thousand years—"
Madam Pei was about to kneel down with Li Qingluo, but Duan Rongshi strode forward and lifted Madam Pei's arm, "General Pei, please stand up quickly."
"You fought and sacrificed many lives on the battlefield to defend our Daliang territory and our country. You are a pillar of our nation and the only female general in the history of Daliang."
"I have always admired you, how could I possibly accept such a generous gift from you? From now on, when you see me, please never show me such a generous gift again."
Li Qingluo and Madam Pei simultaneously responded: "..."
Madam Pei: Haha, when we were at Qingsong Temple, I saluted you and you weren’t so polite, right? Why are you still talking about admiration and respect for me today?
Old Madam Pei couldn't help but glance at her obedient granddaughter beside her.
Li Qingluo: His Royal Highness Prince Su is a little abnormal today.
Duan Rongshi seemed to be unaware of the two people's silence towards him, and walked towards the main seat with a thick face.
After he sat down, Li Qingluo helped Madam Pei sit down.
Duan Rongshi faced a table full of delicious food and asked, "I heard that all the dishes today were cooked by Miss Li herself?"
Madam Pei had a faint smile on her face: "Yes, Your Highness, this minister...this granddaughter of yours doesn't have any special skills. She only cooks this one dish, and she cooks it with quite a bit of care."
Duan Rongshi then raised his eyes and finally looked at Li Qingluo formally.
He nodded slightly. "I once had the honor of eating the sweet potato feast prepared by Miss Li herself. It really opened my eyes."
"Miss Li, thank you for your hard work this time. In that case, will I have a try?"
Madam Pei extended her hand: "Your Highness, you are welcome. Please."
Li Qingluo: His Royal Highness Prince Su is not right today! !
He had clearly already started ordering food for her himself, so why was he pretending that this was only his second time eating there!?
However, before Prince Su started eating, the mute slave was about to come forward to test the poison first, but Prince Su blocked him with his hand.
"No need, all of you please leave."
He even refused to be served food today, obviously trusting Li Qingluo and his grandson completely, which surprised Mrs. Pei.
It is rumored that Prince Su is the most noble and the most difficult to get along with prince!
After all, he is ruthless and never shows any mercy, so he has offended countless people who want to seek revenge on him. Even in the whole Daliang, there are probably countless people who want to kill him.
Therefore, it is said that everything he put into his mouth had to be tested for poison or tasted by someone close to him before it could be served to him.
How come what I saw with my own eyes today was so different from what was rumored?
Not only that, but it's kind of abnormal...
Does he really trust Luo'er so much?
Mrs. Pei couldn't help but glance at her obedient granddaughter again.
Li Qingluo was also staring at Prince Su with a strange look in his eyes. After watching him take several bites before putting down his chopsticks, he actually said, "You really put your heart into it. I appreciate your kindness."
Madam Pei: "Haha, as long as it suits your highness's taste."
Li Qingluo saw this and quickly raised her wine glass and said, "I... your humble servant is sorry to show off today."
"Here, I offer a toast to Your Highness. Thank you for saving my grandmother's life that day and for taking us in until now. I cannot thank you enough. One day I will repay Your Highness for this great kindness!"
After saying this, Li Qingluo was about to drink it all in one gulp, but was stopped urgently by Old Madam Pei.
"Oh, don't you know how much you can drink now?"
Madam Pei turned her head and whispered, "Don't drink!"
Li Qingluo blinked: "Grandma, one cup shouldn't be a problem..."
At worst, I can just take a nap. We are in Guiyuan anyway, so it doesn’t matter.
Mrs. Pei frowned and said, "If I say no, then it's not allowed! Come here, Grandma."
After saying that, Mrs. Pei also raised her glass.
Li Qingluo hurriedly tried to stop her, "Grandma, the remaining poison in your body has not been completely eliminated..."
Madam Pei: "Grandmother asked Dr. Luo, and he said that drinking alcohol and the little poison in my body will not conflict!"
However, Li Qingluo still refused to feel at ease.
