Chapter 57: Beauty’s Birthday, Food Competition

After coming out of Wanshou Palace, Ye Chen couldn't wait to return to Fengming Palace to try his current cooking skills.

"Ye Chen, you stay in Zilong Palace tonight, today is my birthday."

Luo Hongyan looked out the window with a somewhat lonely expression.

Ye Chen was startled, today is Luo Hongyan's birthday?

After entering the palace for more than a year, he really didn't know when Luo Hongyan's birthday was.

She hadn't mentioned it before, and neither had anyone else.

"Hongyan, is today really your birthday?"

Ye Chen asked, he felt something was wrong, the Emperor didn't mention it at all!

Luo Hongyan said calmly: "Will I still lie to you?"

Ye Chen was thoughtful.

Luo Hongyan was in a bad mood probably because of the Supreme Emperor.

Even if there is no gift, it is still good for the Emperor to give his verbal blessing.

But none of this!

"Is this the so-called royal ruthlessness?"

"Or is it that the Supreme Emperor doesn't really want to pass the throne to the beauty?"

Ye Chen was even more vigilant. He felt so weird in this situation. The royal family was ruthless, wasn't it like this?

"Hongyan, you didn't tell me about your birthday last year."

Ye Chen glanced at Luo Hongyan and said.

Luo Hongyan said calmly: "You entered the palace not long ago last year, so I'm not familiar with you!"

Ye Chen: "..."

After all, he was already the emperor and empress at that time, but Luo Hongyan didn't even know her!

Little sadness!

"Besides, I don't even know when your birthday is!"

Luo Hongyan said.

Ye Chen said confidently: "Hongyan, you are His Majesty and I am the Emperor. You don't know my birthday and you don't have any gifts. Do you think it's my problem or your own?"

This time it was Luo Hongyan's turn to be speechless.

There’s nothing wrong with saying that!

She is the emperor. Ye Chen is her empress. She should care about him and give him gifts on her birthday.

"I was wrong, I will give you a replacement gift."

After being silent for a while, Luo Hongyan spoke.

Ye Chen was secretly happy, if in his previous life, men would only be able to give out gifts!

If the gift you buy is not what you want, your girlfriend or wife will lose your temper.

"For beauty, there is no need for supplements!"

"My birthday is in winter, on the first day of the twelfth lunar month. This year, I am twenty-five years old, almost two years older than you!"

Ye Chen said with a smile.

Luo Hongyan silently remembered it in her heart. She didn't care about Ye Chen's birthday before, but now she already cares.

Not long after, Luo Hongyan's imperial chariot arrived at the Purple Dragon Palace, and Ye Chen held her hand and walked down.

"Sister Hongyan, brother-in-law, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Entering the Purple Dragon Palace, Luo Yudie's cheerful voice immediately sounded, and she and Concubine Shu came over.

Concubine Shu greeted Ye Chen with a smile. She knew that Ye Chen would definitely come this year.

"Hongyan, since it's your birthday today, I'll take care of the dinner!"

"You don't need to prepare them in the imperial dining room. Just bring some fresh ingredients."

Ye Chen said with a smile.

It’s my wife’s birthday, so I still have to show off!

Luo Hongyan should be very satisfied with the delicacies prepared by her god-level cooking skills!

"Can you cook?"

Luo Hongyan was confused.

The next second, Luo Hongyan's eyes showed an apologetic look.

She remembered that Ye Chen had been an orphan since he was a child. He had supported himself since he was a child, so he must be able to cook!

"Then I will try your craft today!"

Luo Hongyan chuckled and said, she didn't think Ye Chen could be very good at this, but Ye Chen was willing to do it, and it would be great if he had the heart to do it!

All kinds of fresh ingredients were delivered quickly, everything you need!

Purple Dragon Palace is quite large and has a large kitchen, which is usually not used.

"System, equipped with god-level cooking skills!"

Ye Chen said silently.

A large amount of information quickly poured into his mind, and he completely mastered the recipes of various cuisines in his previous life!

Even if he was an imperial chef in his previous life, he probably wouldn't be at his current level.

“I didn’t expect that the seasoning gift pack I got from signing in before was actually used!”

Ye Chen had a smile on his face.

Half a year ago, he signed in and received a C-level gift bag, which contained various condiments.

At that time, Ye Chen disliked it so much!

Gazing across the ingredients, various dishes quickly appeared in Ye Chen's mind.

"start!"

Ye Chen acted quickly.

Two hours later, Ye Chen stopped with a satisfied smile on his face.

He cooked a total of twelve dishes.

It was enough for the four of them.

"Someone, take them out!"

Ye Chen gave the order, and a maid immediately entered and brought plates of covered dishes into the dining room in the Purple Dragon Palace.

Ye Chen went to ask Luo Hongyan and the others to eat.

"Um?"

Entering the main hall of Purple Dragon Palace, Ye Chen saw that there was a man there, and he was a handsome guy.

"See the Emperor and Empress, I am Situ Ren of the Situ family."

"I learned that His Majesty's birthday is today, so I personally cooked some delicious food and brought it to His Majesty to taste."

The man cupped his hands and smiled.

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes, he knew that Situ Ren was the second son of the Situ family.

Wei Yutang came to her in private before and said that the Situ family wanted Situ Ren to become the imperial concubine.

Ye Chen said something to Wei Yutang, and he thought the matter was over.

I didn't expect that Situ Ren was so evil that he would find such an opportunity to come over!

Luo Hongyan sent a message to Ye Chen: "Ye Chen, Situ Ren is the second son of the Southwest King. He has come outside to ask for an audience. I have no choice but to not let him in."

Ye Chen smiled at Luo Hongyan.

Luo Hongyanju actually hurriedly explained it to him, which was very good.

You must know that Luo Hongyan is the empress. Even if she doesn't explain, what can he say as the empress?

"Situ Ren, I also cooked today. If Your Majesty is not used to eating the food I cook, how about eating yours?"

Ye Chen smiled lightly.

Situ Ren said proudly: "No problem!"

He has absolute confidence in himself!

Even if Ye Chen had cooked before entering the palace, could the food eaten by ordinary people be the same as the food eaten by the emperor?

Ye Chen may not even know the top ingredients!

If Luo Hongyan's stomach is captured and Luo Hongyan realizes his intentions, Situ Ren believes that he will have a chance!

As for Ye Chen's obstruction, as long as Luo Hongyan agrees, what does Ye Chen mean?

"Your Majesty, Aunt Shu, Changle, let's go over and have dinner."

Ye Chen smiled.

Luo Hongyan and the others immediately went to the dining room with Ye Chen, and Situ Ren shamelessly followed them.

He was carrying a big food box in his hand.

"Empress, if your food tastes average, don't force your majesty to eat it. After all, it's his birthday today."

Situ Ren said with some contempt.

“My brother-in-law’s cooking must be delicious!”

Luo Yudie glared at Situ Ren and said, she thought this guy was very annoying here.

Situ Ren said calmly: "Princess Changle, that's not necessarily the case!"

"As far as I know, after entering the palace, the emperor and the empress usually read books, bask in the sun, and take it easy. In order to make His Majesty eat well, I trained hard with top chefs for half a year!"

Ye Chen said with a smile: "Situ Ren, I will have a good talk with His Majesty when the palace arrives and transfer you to the imperial dining room!"

"Pfft!"

Changle couldn't help laughing.

Situ Ren's face turned red. He wanted to become the imperial concubine and replace Ye Chen as the empress in the future. He didn't want to enter the imperial dining room!
