I went to the temple after traveling through time, and he turned out to be a monk!

Not long after, the room gradually became quiet, and the door creaked open.

Bai Zhi and You Qing's hearts were burning with gossip, and they curiously poked their heads out to see who it was.

I saw a gorgeously dressed woman with a proud smile on her face, arranging her bun, and swaying out of the room. He looks really old.

After they left, Bai Zhi whispered, "She looks like a rich woman!"

"Not just a rich woman! She is the princess of Qingping County!" You Qing added.

"It's her! The one who married Lin Shichen, the richest man in Chenjing?"

"Yes!"

"Isn't he quite old? How can he still hook up with Zhao Zhao!" Bai Zhi was surprised.

"Princess Qingping has always been like this, there is no shortage of men, but why she found Zhao Zhao is worth investigating."

The two of them knew very well that Lin Shichen of the Lin family was the largest merchant in Chenjing and could be said to control the food, clothing, housing and transportation of Chenjing people.

Even if they don't know what Bai Zhi's purpose is in organizing the King of Kitchen Competition, they can't let this chef's title fall to someone else.

Princess Qingping found Zhao Zhao at this time, which was really Sima Zhao's wish, and everyone on the road knew it.

The two rushed in and found Zhao Zhao, who looked tired and didn't want to talk to them.

You Qing spoke first and asked directly, "Mr. Zhao, may I ask what kind of relationship that woman just now has with you?"

"What kind of relationship? Boss You is afraid that his control is too lenient!" Zhao Zhao was a little unhappy.

Hearing that his tone was unkind, You Qing took a step forward and said in a high voice, "Mr. Zhao! You are inviting you here so that you can taste the delicacies, not to muddy the waters!"

Zhao Zhao was exposed, but he was not angry at all. He showed an indifferent smile and said, "How can Boss You control the matter of personal taste?"

Bai Zhi was very dissatisfied with this behavior of accepting money from others and turning against others, so she complained, "Isn't it true? Mr. Zhao is young, but he is willing to serve a married woman. This taste is not good!"

Zhao Zhao was furious when he heard this, "Huh? Brother, do you know who she is and you dare to say such arrogant words! Do you know that what you just said could kill you!"

"Of course I know she is Princess Qingping! I just don't know if Young Master Zhao is greedy for beauty? Money? Or just for excitement?"

"With your reputation as a romantic Zhao Zhao, there is no shortage of women. I guess you are not just looking for beauty! If the young master is seeking wealth, my master can give it to you. Why should you sacrifice the near and seek the far away and grovel under others? Or, you are just fine with this. One bite?" Bai Zhi analyzed it with him seriously.

Zhao Zhao seemed to have been stepped on and hurt, and he became angry instantly, "What do you mean by lying under others! I, Zhao Zhao, am a man..."

Zhao Zhao couldn't speak anymore, so he changed the subject and asked, "How much money can you offer?!"

"We are sincere, how much do you need? Just ask!" Bai Zhi boldly negotiated with him.

Zhao Zhao stretched out his hand and made a sign of five, "Five thousand silver."

Hearing this, Bai Zhi and You Qing looked at each other in confusion, feeling a little incredible.

It's not too much, but they think that for the richest man in Chenjing, this five thousand silver is too little to send one person.

"What? Too many? At least four thousand taels!" Zhao Zhao felt guilty and continued to hold on.

Bai Zhi held her hands and said calmly: "Five thousand taels is nothing to us. I just don't understand that you are a talented person with good looks and good talent. Why are you willing to devote yourself to others? It's just five thousand taels." A thousand taels can make you switch sides, how should I trust you!"

Zhao Zhao unfolded the folding fan in his hand and sneered, "Boss You, I know you are rich, but have you ever heard that a strong dragon will not suppress a local snake? What's more, that is Princess Qingping, a royal family member, not an ordinary local snake. ! Princess Qingping married into the Lin family and left Lin Shichen half disabled. She was free and happy all day long, acting domineering and no one could control her! I am only a small person, how can I resist her! "

"I advise you to stop struggling. As long as she is involved in your competition, you cannot win! There is no justice in Chenjing, only the Zhuo family."

Bai Zhi thought about it and realized the seriousness of the matter, "Are you saying that all my judges have been bribed by Princess Qingping?"

Zhao Zhao said angrily: "That's right! Even if Princess Qingping does nothing, no one is willing to offend her! I alone cannot influence the outcome!"

Bai Zhi understood that this was an invisible pressure and a rule that Chenjing people were accustomed to.

After all the calculations, I still haven't figured this out.

Just in case, Bai Zhi asked You Qing to give money to each judge and win over as many people as he could.

We must find a way to solve this problem, otherwise the whole game will be ruined!

at night.

Bai Zhi suffered from insomnia and Meng Ying had not returned yet. After washing, she tossed and turned on the bed unable to fall asleep. Her mind was filled with thoughts on how to break Princess Qingping's authority in everyone's hearts.

At ten minutes after midnight, Meng Ying returned exhausted.

He was careful when entering the door, she always slept well, and he was afraid of disturbing her sweet dreams.

As soon as she entered the door, Bai Zhi came up to her, undressed Meng Ying like a normal wife, and asked, "My lord, you are back. Are you hungry?"

"You're not hungry, why aren't you sleeping? What happened?" Meng Ying guessed that she had something on her mind.

Bai Zhi was worried that Meng Ying was too tired, so she smiled and said, "It's nothing serious. Your Majesty, please rest early. You have to go to court tomorrow."

Meng Ying hugged her and laughed out loud, "If you can't sleep, how can I sleep well?"

Bai Zhi: "I can't sleep!"

"You should have gone to bed at this point in the past!"

Bai Zhi: "..."

Unable to escape Meng Ying's insight, she told Meng Ying exactly what happened today.

"I'm so stupid, I can even ignore such a thing!" Bai Zhi covered her face, blaming herself and feeling guilty.

The two sat on the bed, Meng Ying hugged her from behind, he held Bai Zhi's wrists with both hands, put her small hands in his palms and rubbed them gently.

"Princess must not belittle oneself. The most difficult thing to predict in the world is the human heart."

"Not only the princess, but also Sa Lan. Most of Sa Lan's failures come from the unpredictable nature of the human heart. The key to success is people, but everyone can have thousands of ideas, which is really a headache."

Meng Ying was telling the truth. At this moment, she actually felt like she was the same person in the world.

"Then what should we do?" Bai Zhi asked along.

"Get to know these people, understand what scares them, what makes them happy, what makes them restless."

Bai Zhi probably understood this sentence and asked Meng Ying to continue.

"It's difficult to directly change the critics' fear of the powerful! But Chenjing is not the only powerful person!"

Hearing this, Bai Zhi was enlightened and enlightened, "Oh! That's right! If we find another powerful person, we can change the direction of the wind! But who can we find?"

Bai Zhi understood that Meng Ying didn't want to come forward, so she could only think of other people, but after much thought, she couldn't think of anyone more powerful and willing to help her.

Well, she really thought of one, and she said, "Zhuo... Zhuo... Zhuo..."

Meng Ying knew who she wanted to say, so she patted her head gently, "Don't think about Zhuo Yao! What's the use of being a stubborn ass!"

"Uh, that makes sense!"

"Princess Qingping and Lin Shichen have an only son. Princess Qingping loves him dearly. But this son is a playboy and hates Princess Qingping's dissoluteness the most."

"Oh~ Got it!"

Bai Zhi was enlightened again and was so excited that she kissed Meng Ying on the face several times, "My lord, you are so amazing, you know everything!"

This compliment and kiss made Meng Ying a little stunned. After a long while, he touched the place where he had been kissed, and his chest felt slightly warm.
