Yi Zexuan changed the subject and asked, "How is the princess's stay at your residence?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Ziwen picked up his teacup with a smug look on his face, took a sip of tea, and put down the teacup, saying, "The princess seems to really like the decorating style of my place, so she is having a very pleasant stay."
Yi Zexuan snorted and said, "With the strange and incongruous appearance of your residence, I guess they were just being polite."
Lin Ziwen shrugged and said, "Think what you want. Anyway, the princess was very surprised. Only some people thought it was strange when they first saw it."
"Another group of secret guards has already gone. If you have time, go and take a look. The secret report says there's a problem inside, but I don't know the specifics. Find out and let me know."
Lin Ziwen raised an eyebrow and said, "Then we'll have to wait until later. We'll keep the princess for another night and send her back tomorrow."
"You should be mindful of your actions."
"Don't worry, we won't do anything to her."
Meanwhile, Su Lixia had already arrived at the Prince's Mansion. As soon as she got off the carriage, she grabbed Uncle Li and asked him where the kitchen was.
"Huh? Princess?" Xiaolian looked at her slightly reckless manner and couldn't help but worry.
"Princess, don't worry, I will personally escort you there."
So the two of them walked side by side toward the kitchen.
Upon arriving in the kitchen, Uncle Li gestured for everyone to put down what they were doing, then turned to her and asked, "Does the princess think there's something wrong with the kitchen?"
Su Lixia waved her hand and said, "No problem, no problem, you can all continue."
Once everyone was busy again, Su Lixia explained softly, "Since I was little, I've been waited on hand and foot. I've only ever seen food, but I've never seen how it's made, so I can't appreciate everyone's hard work. That's why I sometimes complain about the food. That's why I came to take a look today."
Uncle Li smiled slightly and said, "Princess, this shows you care about the people's plight. In that case, where would you like to begin your research?"
"Let's see where the rice is steamed first!"
"This way!" Uncle Li pointed in the direction and led Su Lixia over.
Above the large stove was a large orange oval basin lined with a mesh and cloth. Water and rice were added in proportion, and it looked like the food was being steamed, which seemed to work on the same principle as a rice cooker.
The cook lifted the lid of the pot, and the aroma of rice wafted out, looking quite appealing.
Su Lixia gave him a thumbs up and said, "You steamed this rice very well!"
The cook gave a simple, honest smile and chuckled twice without saying a word.
Moving on to the stir-fry area, the chefs' knife skills were also impressive; they chopped the vegetables quickly and finely.
The big stove had an old-fashioned large pot on top, the kind you can't lift, but that didn't affect their performance at all!
Su Lixia's heart skipped a beat: "This is just like a teacher giving a lesson at school!"
It seems my little desire to cook can't be fulfilled in the Prince's mansion's main kitchen; I'll have to do it in my own little kitchen.
Su Lixia nodded seriously, then said in a pretentious tone, "Everyone seems to be doing very well, quite capable. But speaking of which, isn't the Prince coming back tonight?"
"Come back. It's still early. I guess we'll be back later."
Su Lixia nodded and said, "Then when the prince returns, go and tell this princess that I have something to discuss with him."
"yes."
After saying that, everyone left.
On the way, Su Lixia patted her chest and said, "Luckily I didn't try to teach a fish to swim, or I would have been thrown out."
