The Empress Dowager smiled broadly and personally bent down to help Han Guiren up: "Good child, then let us go."
The palace attendants had already laid out the meal on the table.
The Empress Dowager's meals were made in the small kitchen, different from everyone else's, she only consumed vegetarian meals, even Consort Zhuang in the harem didn't eat vegetarian every meal every day.
"Han Guiren, what I eat here is tasteless, sorry to put you through this,"
After the meal, the Empress Dowager rinsed her mouth and said to Han Guiren with a smile.
Han Guiren also rinsed her mouth, and softly responded: "What you said, Empress Dowager, is not true. I genuinely think the chef in your small kitchen has exquisite skills, and the vegetarian meals taste very authentic. The last time I had vegetarian meals this delicious was at Chan Mountain Temple."
"Han Guiren, you have also been to Chan Mountain Temple?" The Empress Dowager was intrigued.
