In the next few days, Tao Ti was busy renovating the kitchenette of the East Palace. In addition to adding some kitchen utensils, she also asked someone to build a small bread kiln behind Yaoguang Hall.

This kind of bread kiln is very simple. The craftsmen can understand it when they see the pictures drawn by Tao Ti. They built it in just two days.

Taoti immediately tried to bake some bread. The first two times were not ready, and the dough was either baked or not soft enough. Fortunately, the third time finally succeeded-

Before the kiln was opened, the sweet smell filled the entire Yaoguang Hall. Even the palace servants who were cleaning the door smelled the strange fragrance, and they sniffed greedily with their eyes closed, "It smells so good!"

Tao Ti looked at the incense that was about to burn in the incense burner, and rubbed her hands excitedly, "It's almost time, you can take it out."

Linglong responded, pinched a wet rag and moved the lid away.

After a burst of hot steam, a row of honey breads in the long plate were neatly squeezed together, golden, round and fragrant.

Zishuang and Linglong couldn't help but swallow. At first they thought the Crown Princess was just a whimsical joke, but they didn't expect that the food called "bread" was really successful and it was so delicious!

Tao Ti tasted one, and it was a little hot. After breaking it apart, it was fluffy and soft inside, and a faint milky fragrance was filled with the mouth. "Well, it's pretty good."

Pei Yan should be able to accept this sweetness. Thinking of this, she said to Linglong, "Please put six and send them to Your Highness."

The bread she baked this time was not big, one was only the size of a fist. According to her estimate of Pei Yan's appetite, it would be great if he could eat half of these six, but pretending to be three was too harsh, making her look stingy, and pretending to be six was more beautiful.

Linglong quickly packed a plate of bread and went to Zixiao Palace.

Zi Shuang approached Tao Ti, first held Tao Ti and praised it carefully, and then asked tentatively, "Master, are you planning to live a good life with Your Highness the Crown Prince?"

Tao Ti frowned when she asked, "What if it is?"

Seeing that her attitude became sharper, Zishuang smiled angrily, "No, no, I just asked casually. Master, you can figure it out, that is of course the best."

Tao Ti pursed her lips, feeling suspicious, but her face was not revealed.

She packed six small breads for herself and saw that there were still some left in the tray, so she said to Zishuang, "Please take the rest to share with the palace people."

Zi Shuang was slightly surprised, "Master, how are you qualified to eat what you cooked yourself?"

"It's not a rare thing, just a little bread." Taoti disagreed. "Besides, this one needs fresh to be delicious. I can't finish it alone, and the rest is a waste. It's better to eat it together to save the waste of food. By the way, remember to leave one for Linglong."

"…yes.” Zi Shuang said unawarely.

When Tao Ti entered the house, Zishuang did not dare to delay and distributed the remaining bread to the several palace servants who were serving him.

However, she had selfish intentions and did not leave it for Linglong, but ate it herself.

She didn't believe that Linglong's little hoof would go to the master to complain for a piece of snack.

In Zixiao Palace, Pei Yanzheng discussed matters with the officials of the East Palace.

Suddenly, he smelled a strong smell of milk, and he raised his eyes and looked at Fu Xirui.

Fu Xirui understood and hurriedly walked out of the house. After a while, he took a food box and walked to Pei Yan, lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, it's the pastry sent by the Crown Princess."

What she sent? Could it be that the bread she has been fiddling with in the past two days?

Pei Yan raised his hand, lifted the lid slightly and took a look.

It looks pretty good, I think it's done.

He was about to let Fu Xirui take it down, but after discussing government affairs, he heard Song Wenci laughing at the next head, "The kitchen is getting better and better. I don't know what kind of pastry I'm sending today, it's so sweet that my greed is all drawn out."

Song Wenci was the prince's tutor. Pei Yan studied with him at the age of three. An old saying goes, one day he will be a teacher for life and a father. Song Wenci and Pei Yan had a long history of teacher-student friendship.

Now that he heard that Grand Tutor Song was greedy, Pei Yan smiled and said, "I have been discussing government affairs for so long, and I think you are tired too. Why not eat some pastries and take a break."

Song Wenci stroked his gray beard, "It's great, very good."

When Fu Xirui was giving up the snacks, he was still worried, for fear that he would not have enough money.

Unexpectedly, the number of dim sums is not large or small, and each person is just right.

Fu Xirui breathed a sigh of relief, this princess is so amazing! Hey! It’s such a coincidence that I can give you a snack.

"I have never seen this pastry before." Song Wenci picked up a small bread and took a big bite. The next moment, he raised his eyebrows and praised, "Well... soft and sweet, with a lingering fragrance on his mouth, good, good, good!"

The reactions of the others were similar to those of Song Wenci, and they praised them endlessly.

The bread was still a little warm, Pei Yan tasted it gracefully, and remembered the news that the secret guards had investigated—

Taoti used to cook at the Yongwei Hou Mansion, but she didn't do it many times and made some ordinary pastry soup.

As for the cooking skills, it is unknown. After all, only Zhang has tried her skills, Yongweihou and the old lady of the Hou Mansion. These people have never commented on her cooking skills to the outside world.

Could it be that she has been hiding this good cooking skills before...

Or, is the crown princess Tao Ti, who is now in the Eastern Palace really the brave and powerful daughter Tao Ti?

Pei Yan narrowed his black eyes slightly, thinking about something.

Song Wenci finished the bread in two or three bites, and was still a little unsatisfied, so he asked, "Your Highness, I don't know what the name of this pastry is? I can also let the chef at home try to make it."

Pei Yan came to his senses and said lightly, "This pastry is called bread... It was a recipe that the Crown Princess himself figured out."

Hearing this, several important officials from the Eastern Palace were shocked and looked at the remaining bread slags on the plate in disbelief.

Such a delicious pastry was made by the princess who took poison on wedding night? It was incredible that the woman had become so virtuous in just a few days.

"I didn't expect the Crown Princess to have such excellent skills." Song Wenci was an old official in the officialdom. He quickly reacted and said with a smile, "Your Highness will be blessed in the future."

He started, and the other ministers agreed.

Pei Yan smiled but said nothing. After drinking half a cup of tea, he continued to discuss the matter.

****

Tonight's dinner was delivered to Yaoguang Palace by General Manager Sun himself.

Seeing his polite and cautious attitude, Tao Ti felt a little embarrassed and explained to him patiently, saying that he was not questioning his cooking skills, but simply wanted to eat some heavy-tasting food.

Seeing that the Crown Princess was so approachable, General Manager Sun was surprised and frightened and said, "Crown Princess, don't worry too much. The young man brought the meal here. First, I wanted to see if the Crown Princess was satisfied with these spicy dishes today, and second,..."

He paused with shame, and saw Tao Ti waiting for him to write, and then he mustered up the courage to say, "The little one tried to make the fried bun and Hu La soup made by the princess a few days ago. It was fine to make the fried bun, but it was done in one go. However, the little one could not make the taste of the Hu La soup, but they didn't know what was wrong... If the princess could solve the problem of the little one, the little one would be grateful."

After saying that, he solemnly bowed to Tao Ti.

"Mr. Sun, don't be so polite." Tao Ti quickly asked him to get up. Anyway, what she made was not a secret exclusive dish, and she didn't hide her personal information. She told the steps and tricks of Hu La Soup one by one.

Finally, she smiled humbly, "The cooking flexibility is very strong. The same recipe uses ingredients and steps clearly, but different people make it differently. You don't have to make it exactly the same as me. As long as the taste is good enough, it will be done."

"Thank you for your advice." Mr. Sun saw that the princess did not show off his airs and did not hide his own personal feelings. He also loved cooking and food from the bottom of his heart, and felt a little more sincere respect in his heart.

It is said that the Crown Princess is not a good person, but after these two contacts, it is not what the rumors say! It can be seen that the rumors cannot be believed.

Before leaving, General Manager Sun said enthusiastically, "Crown Princess, the kitchen is not far from Yaoguang Hall, and the kitchen is also complete. What food do you want to cook on weekdays? You can come to the kitchen to make it. We can also help you with some dishes and carve flowers. The palace maids around you are not as good as us."

Tao Ti knew his kindness and smiled slightly, "Okay, when I want to cook a big dish, I will go to the kitchen to ask you for help."

After dinner, Taoti took a walk in the courtyard for a while and then went back to the house to take a shower.

The nightlife of the ancients was extremely boring, so she could only read the script to pass the time.

But tonight she almost finished reading a script, but she still didn't see Pei Yan.

Tao Ti yawned lazily, but subconsciously looked at the door.

He is still busy with government affairs so late? Well, can his weak body bear it?

Seeing that she was sleepy, Linglong advised her while adding incense cakes to the green glazed scented pot, "Crown Princess, it's late at night. Your Highness should not come tonight. Why don't you rest first?"

Tao Ti thought about it and said that she had been married into the Eastern Palace for several days, and the prince had lived with her for several days. He thought he had done enough to do a show and didn't have to come here every night.

"Well, I'll take a rest first." She stretched her waist and smelled the scent of the incense burner from her nose, and said carelessly, "The smell of this fragrance seems to be different from before."

Linglong Tianxiang paused slightly, lowered her eyes and said, "Go back to the Crown Princess, I used Su Hexiang before, and today I was in the Elephant Position. If the Crown Princess liked the previous one, then I would exchange it for me."

Tao Ti didn't study much about the fragrance, just said, "No, this smells good too."

"Yes." Linglong finished the incense and served Tao Ti to sleep.

Suddenly no one was lying beside him, and Taoti was still a little uncomfortable.

But not long after, a strong sense of sleep came up like a tide. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Outside the curtain, Linglong lifted a corner and gently called out the "Crown Princess".

Seeing that no one responded, she quickly walked towards the door.

"Your Highness, the Crown Princess is already asleep."

"Well, you go back." A gentle voice rang.
