Some days later, Ah Chen went to the Imperial Palace, claiming she wanted to personally make something for Song Chong and Consort Li. Although the two were reluctant, as she was their most "beloved" daughter, they had to agree.
"Your Majesty, Lady Li, this is the mushroom soup I'm best at," Ah Chen served each of them a bowl, "Try it and see how it tastes?"
Though the two were somewhat displeased, they decided to give it a try out of courtesy. To their surprise, the taste was indeed quite good, and they soon finished a bowl, wanting more, and drank another.
Despite their dislike for Cui Chen, the mushroom soup she made today was really quite good.
Ah, I knew no one could resist mushroom soup, just look at how much they're enjoying it.
"Your Majesty, among the Princes, who do you think is the most capable of taking on great responsibility?" Ah Chen asked with a smile, as if chatting casually with Song Chong.
