Everyone around looked surprised. Even if it was just the food cooked by Princess Pingyang, the Queen Mother just took a simple taste.

But what Dong Qian cooked made the Queen Mother, who was usually very picky about food, finish it all.

You know, the only one who can make the Queen Mother finish a whole bowl is the royal chef in the palace.

Dong Qian looked at the Queen Mother intently, and she also looked at Dong Qian with profound eyes.

Afterwards, without knowing what she said to the people around her, the Queen Mother left the table directly.

The result is very obvious, Dong Qian got this opportunity.

Although it is a bit surprising, since Dong Qian can defeat so many people, it is already very impressive when she comes to the palace.

Although Princess Pingyang was a little unconvinced, the Queen Mother did eat all the food Dong Qian made.

Although there are some unfair judgments from others, the Queen Mother is known to be businesslike.

Sometimes, even if the emperor made a mistake, the queen mother would punish him severely without hesitation.

This is also the reason why the emperor treats the people around him the same way.

"The winner of the competition this time is Dong Qian and Chef Dong. Congratulations to everyone."

……

Many people came up from behind and said auspicious words to Dong Qian. She was a little confused and didn't feel very happy at that time.

Because what you will face next will be a more rigorous test, from determining the birthday dishes, to the process of preparing the ingredients for the dishes, to the distribution of all the personnel behind.

Dong Qian must be perfect, and there must be no accidents or mistakes.

These are what Mammy told Dong Qian. Although this is indeed a big test, if she can succeed, she can directly stay in the palace as the Queen Mother's exclusive chef.

The monthly salary is 300 taels, which is considered an extra favor. The average royal chef only gets 200 taels.

But Dong Qianzhi was not here, and she just smiled at what grandma said.

When Dong Qian turned back to pack her things, she saw Princess Pingyang staring at the pile of firewood beside her.

"It was tampered with."

Dong Qian said without any hesitation that Princess Pingyang suspected that it was her.

Seeing her questioning look, Dong Qian curled her lips helplessly, "Do you think I did it?"

"Otherwise, why are the firewood around you okay?"

Although her suspicion was reasonable, Dong Qian would never do such a thing.

He also brought the other man's firewood, but the result was the same as Dong Qian's, with no difference.

"I see!"

Princess Pingyang suddenly cried out in surprise, and Dong Qian was startled by her.

"What do you know?"

It was just a simple proof that only her own firewood had a problem, that's all. Even Dong Qian herself hadn't figured out what was going on.

"It must be you!" She became more confident now.

Dong Qian really wanted to open her head and see what was inside.

"What evidence do you have?"

Although it doesn't matter whether the firewood is lit or not, Princess Pingyang just wants to find out who the murderer is.

Dong Qian indeed took away the No. 1, but Princess Pingyang was convinced.

"You must think that that person can't defeat you even if he tries his best, but I am still a bit of a threat to you, so you do something to me."

At this time, Dong Qian finally understood, "Then you mean, only if there is something wrong with my firewood, it could be someone else's fault, otherwise it would be all my fault?"

Hearing what Dong Qian said, Princess Pingyang nodded seriously.

Dong Qian was really helpless, but she was too lazy to talk to a person like her who was not very smart.

"Okay, you can figure it out yourself. Come and arrest me after you find the evidence."

After saying that Dong Qian was about to leave, Princess Pingyang was still mumbling.

It was obvious that she was a little confused, but Dong Qian didn't pay much attention to it. Mo Qian followed her and prepared to leave.

There were originally a lot of people gathered around, but after the game, everyone left.

In fact, there are only a few left now. Dong Qian was just about to go out when she suddenly remembered that she had not picked up her luggage.

Mo Qian also suddenly remembered to go back, picked up the baggage that fell on the ground, and patted the dust on it a few times.

At this time, Dong Qian was stopped by her grandmother and said a few words.

Mo Qian quickly caught up with Dong Qian, "You put the baggage back first, and I will go to see the Queen Mother alone."

Although Mo Qian was a little worried, this was the palace after all, and even if Mo Qian followed, she might not be able to go inside.

So she just obeyed Dong Qian's orders. Dong Qian turned around and followed her grandma in the other direction.

The Queen Mother's palace is quite far away from here, and it only took nearly half an hour to walk there.

No wonder concubines with higher status are indispensable for rewards.

Dong Qian's calves twitched as she walked, and she came to a very long corridor. Although it was relatively spacious and the sunlight was very good, the surrounding high courtyard walls cast large shadows under the sunlight. On the ground, it makes people feel depressed when they see it.

Mammy was walking fast in front, and Dong Qian was also worried about something happening, so she followed behind and walked fast.

Finally, after half a stick of incense, we came to the gate of a towering palace. Needless to say, this should be the residence of the Queen Mother.

After Mammy walked in, Dong Qian followed her.

I have to say that the palace is very big, and the facilities inside are also luxurious and luxurious. Everywhere is cleaned spotlessly, even the maids and guards are meticulously dressed.

According to Dong Qian's understanding of the Queen Mother during the competition just now, she should be someone who pays great attention to cleanliness.

Soon she arrived in front of the main palace door. Before she even got close, Dong Qian smelled a familiar smell.

It was like the smell of pine and cypress trees mixed with other spices. It was a very clean smell. Dong Qian felt much clearer after smelling it.

This is also the incense that many temples burn. Some incense is also divided into high-grade and low-grade. Obviously, this smell is very high-grade.

Usually it is burned for worship, but now it feels soothing.

"Just wait here, the Queen Mother will come out soon."

Dong Qian nodded in response. Because of her status, she never raised her head. She just lowered her head and looked at her feet, wondering when the Queen Mother would come out.

What should I say and how should I respond?

I thought it would be a quick process, but Dong Qian stood still for another half an hour, and her ankles were so sore that it was unbearable.

Her figure swayed, and the maid on the side thought she was about to faint, so she tried to help her.

But Dong Qian just wanted to move a little to relieve her fatigue.

"Get up, you don't have to be so low, people who don't know will think you are some kind of sinner."

Suddenly a voice sounded from not far in front of Dong Qian, and she slowly straightened up.
