“Shut up. Are you trying to go into an early grave too?” Yang Wanyu immediately covered her brother’s mouth and growled.

Yang Chengsen’s head cleared after being yelled at by her. He shut his mouth and stopped talking.

Zhou Ying was just about to see King Hui’s reaction to Yang Wanyu’s visit when Shizhu suddenly ran in and said, “Madam, the people from the palace are here to pick you up.”

“They’re late. Go and get two copper pots for me.” She stood up and went to the kitchen immediately. “Sister Haitang, no one came in all this time, right?”

“Yes, I’m the only one here stewing the bone soup.”

“Alright then. Come with me to the palace. Remember, don’t speak unless I ask you something.”

“I understand.” Haitang responded, then put away the things she had prepared and placed them in a large food box.

She called for Shizhu, and the three of them walked out together.

Granny Liu, who was picking them up, only sized them up briefly before letting them into the carriage.

When they got into the carriage, Granny Liu smelled a pungent and spicy smell. “Mrs. Zhou, did you bring your own seasonings?”

“No, it’s the prepared base and dipping sauce for the hotpot. When stir-frying the spicy base, the smell will be very choking, so 1 prepared it at home.”

“I see.” Granny Liu nodded and checked the items they brought. After confirming there was nothing extra, she brought them into the palace.

After entering the palace, Granny Liu brought them into the small kitchen of Longevity Palace. “All the ingredients are here. You can start preparing. We’ll start on time at noon.”

“Granny Liu, 1 will need to know how many people will be there so that I can prepare enough ingredients.”

“Two tables full. Prepare as much meat as possible.”

“Understood.” After Zhou Ying finished speaking, she instructed them to get busy.

Shizhu washed the vegetables while Haitang started plating.

Zhou Ying cut off the fat and tender meat from two sheep, shaved them into thin slices, and handed them to Haitang for plating.

After the hotpot was served, Zhou Ying baked some scallion pancakes for the palace servants to bring in.

Soon after, Granny Liu entered and informed Mrs. Zhou, “Mrs. Zhou, the Empress Dowager said today is a family banquet, so she won’t invite you in, but the rest of the mutton is all yours.”

She gave her a hundred taels of silver after taking it out. “This is for the copper pot. The Empress Dowager said they would have to bother you if they wanted to eat it again in the future.

“Granny Liu, please help me thank the Empress Dowager.” Zhou Ying added, “There’s still some minced meat, so 1’11 make meatball soup. You can taste my cooking this way too.”

“Can’t wait.” Granny Liu immediately nodded and smiled.

The taste of the spicy hotpot was too tempting. She had long wanted to try it but was embarrassed to ask.

“Please wait a moment.” Zhou Ying smiled and nodded, then turned around and got busy.

A pot of steaming mutton meatballs and radish soup was served in a short while. The fresh fragrance of the mutton and radish fused together into a tempting mix.

Zhou Ying looked at Granny Liu’s twitching nose and laughed secretly. She said, “Granny Liu, please enjoy. We’ll go back now.”

“You had a busy day, so let’s share a meal. When we’re done, I’ll send you out together.” Granny Liu spoke quickly.

Shizhu’s stomach grumbled at this moment, and she could only nod in agreement.

Naturally, Granny Liu still delivered the majority of the soup to the dining area. The remaining food was only then consumed by the four women with a sizable scallion pancake.

After getting her fill, Zhou Ying used her spiritual sense to scan the place while leaving the palace.

She found the Empress Dowager, the Emperor, the Empress, and the young princes and princesses all inside, including the Eighth Princess, who had been arranged to go to the hot spring manor.

Because of the slow boiling of the hotpot, a few of them even started to fight over the readied meat. It was a lively scene.

It was probably a rare occasion for the royal family..
