Luo Cheng also picked some of his favorite dishes and added them to the roll before eating it with the porridge.

Xiao Dezi had seen Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng eating in front of the emperor yesterday, so he knew that these two really didn’t mind their identities. Therefore, he washed his hands and ate the rolls with them.

Xiao Dezi’s face was filled with satisfaction.

“What are you two waiting for? Hurry up and eat! It’ll be your own loss if you don’t! The Seventh Prince and his wife are maqnanimous and don’t care about your identities at all. Hurry up and eat!”

After hearing Xiao Dezi’s words, the other two eunuchs became emboldened and started eating.

It had to be said that this way of eating rolls was very novel.

To be honest, none of the eunuchs in the royal family had eaten good food before!

But the food they ate today was different.

In the past, they would take advantage of their master’s absence or when their master was resting to find an imperial chef and pay him to cook some delicious food.

But now, they didn’t have to be nervous or careful as they ate together with the prince and the imperial consort openly.

Was what they lacked food?

What they lacked was the satisfaction of eating at the same table as the prince.

From the beginning to the end, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng really didn’t mind their existence and went about their meal as usual.

Li Xiaoran even called out to the three of them from time to time and taught them about the dish combinations she thought were delicious.

One could tell whether a person was sincere or not.

Although some people pretended to be very nice, they still seemed insincere.

Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng were different. From the beginning to the end, they didn’t act superior at all. Instead, they really treated everyone as equals. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

At this moment, the three people eating were very touched.

In the past, the powerful officials of the government either looked down on eunuchs like them, curried favor with them, suspected them, or hated them. Of course, although some people couldn’t stand them, but for the sake of their wealth and glory, they had no choice but to befriend them.

But no one really treated them as equals.

Only the Seventh Prince and his wife had ever done so.

When Xiao Dezi returned to the palace with a food box of rolls, a young eunuch beside him said, “Chief, I finally understand why you made this trip personally! ”

When Xiao Dezi heard the eunuch’s words, he smiled.

“The two of you are lucky to have followed me today. I’m in a good mood today, so I’ll give you some pointers. No matter how you treat the others, at least the Seventh Prince is worthy of your sincerity!”

When he said this, Xiao Dezi deliberately emphasized the word sincerity, in hopes that these two people would understand what he meant.

In the past, Xiao Dezi definitely wouldn’t have said this.

However, after seeing Li Xiaoran interact with the emperor yesterday, Xiao Dezi could already tell.

Although the Seventh Consort’s family background was the humblest, the emperor was the fondest of her!

Someone who dared to mock the emperor was either stupid or an extraordinary genius.

How could a woman who could make the current emperor acknowledge her as the Seventh Prince’s wife and make the Seventh Prince treat her so sincerely be stupid?

The answer was obvious.

Based on Xiao Dezi’s intuition, which he had honed over the years in the royal family, he definitely couldn’t offend the Seventh Prince’s wife.

Small Table and Small Stool also remembered Xiao Dezi’s words. From then on, they would help whenever they encountered the Seventh Prince and his wife.

After the emperor left the morning meeting, he was very tired.

At this moment, Xiao Dezi walked in with a food box.

“The imperial edict has been read to him? How did he react?!” the emperor asked.

“The Seventh Prince didn’t have much of a reaction. The Seventh Consort liked the gold medal that you gave her and said that what you gave her was exactly what she wanted! Out of joy, she treated us to breakfast!” Xiao Dezi said as he brought the food box over. “The Seventh Consort even asked me to bring some rolls for you!”

The emperor was immediately interested.

“Bring them over! I’ll wanna try some too!”

Xiao Dezi hesitated when he heard the emperor’s words.

“Why don’t I try it first?”

When the emperor heard Xiao Dezi’s words, he knew what he meant.

“No need. Bring it over! I trust you!”

With that, the emperor asked someone to fetch water for him to wash his hands. Then, with Xiao Dezi’s help, he ate a roll.

The emperor, who originally didn’t have a good appetite, immediately had an appetite after eating this roll.

In the end, the emperor ate all the rolls in the food box.

“This girl is really good at cooking! I originally didn’t have an appetite, but after eating her rolls, my appetite increased!” The emperor said with satisfaction.

When Xiao Dezi recalled the delicious food he had eaten previously, he couldn’t help but agree. “That’s right. I’ve only seen the Seventh Consort twice, but I’ve already realized that she’s really good at cooking!”

The emperor thought of something and said, “Perhaps that girl has talent in this regard! By the way, I won’t freeload. I remember that there’s a Sichuan chef in the imperial kitchen, right?! He makes good dishes. Let him go to the Seventh Prince’s residence to make a table of Sichuan dishes. Didn’t that girl say that she misses the taste of Sichuan food? As a father-in-law, I should care for my son and daughter-in-law!”

When Xiao Dezi heard this, he smiled as he praised the emperor for being the best father-in-law in the world. Then, he went to pass down the decree.

In the imperial kitchen, Fan Dechang, who had long been ostracized, panicked when he received the emperor’s order.

After giving Xiao Dezi a silver ingot, Fan Dechang asked carefully, “Manager, how much effort should we put in?”

After Xiao Dezi received the silver, he smiled.

“Just do your best until you make the Seventh Prince and his wife happy!” This time, Fan Dechang understood.

“By the way, the Seventh Prince’s wife is from Sichuan and misses the taste of her hometown’s cuisine. Mr. Fan, you have to show off your culinary skills! Perhaps there will be a surprise if you perform well!” Xiao Dezi added..
