It was only after making whale dishes that I realized that my sense of taste had recovered.

When Jinying was worried about her, he didn't tell Jinying in time that she had recovered her sense of taste. On the one hand, it was Han Shanggong's order, and on the other hand, she wanted to wait for Jinying's feelings for her to change. When responding, you can enjoy Jinying's care for her and worry about her in advance.

Jinying took the freshly prepared food and put it on the other side. When she bent over, she caught a glimpse of Jang Geum who was still beside the stove from the corner of her eye, feeling a little lost.

During the month of the cold war with Jang Geum, she thought a lot. She is already in the dark, but Jang Geum is still clean and never knows the darkness of the court. If she continues to be with Jang Geum like this For a close friend, one day, either she will destroy Jang Geum, or she will start to drag Jang Geum into the endless darkness. If this is the case, for Jang Geum, it will be regarded as destruction in another sense.

Besides, they are still in two different camps now, instead of suffering because of involuntary control, it is better to slowly alienate now...

However, she really wanted to draw Jang Geum into her camp, just like Ling Lu, after becoming a member of their camp, she no longer had to worry about being hostile in the future.

It's just... Seeing Jang Geum approaching her again, Jinying sighed slightly. With Jang Geum's character, how could such a thing happen.

The two of them were thinking about their own thoughts, but they didn't notice that Han Shanggong and Cui Shanggong came to the imperial dining kitchen at some point. Seeing that Jang Geum had been following Jinying, Han Shanggong frowned slightly, but didn't say anything. Cui Shanggong looked at Jinying and smiled inexplicably.

Seeing this scene, Ling Lu felt a little worried about Jinying. Although she didn't want to help Jang Jin, she was worried that Jinying would be punished because of Jang Jin, so she had no choice but to remind the two of them.

"Your Majesty, I heard that the topic of the first competition of the Imperial Cuisine Contest has been released, is that true?" The gossip spirit of the little palace ladies is worthy of everyone's admiration. During the period of time when the sign of the palace was issued, it had already been passed to the imperial kitchen of the main hall.

"That's right, because I'm going outside the palace, so Jang Jin, hurry up and pack up and go out of the palace with me." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Jang Jin's reaction, Han Shanggong left the imperial dining kitchen, and she had to hurry up Go back and change into regular clothes.

"Jinying, hurry back and pack up, it's rare to go out of the palace once." Although they would "rarely" go out of the palace once in a while.

"Yes, empress." Bending down to salute, Jinying secretly made a decision in her heart.

If after this competition, Jang Geum still wants to continue to be a close friend with her, then, even if it is by all means, she will drag Jang Geum into the darkness together.

A Chang on the side glanced back and forth between Jang Jin and Jin Ying, and then moved closer to Ling Lu.

"Ling Lu, do you know what the topic of this time is?" When the woman from the royal kitchen of the Dafei Palace came over, she was talking to Lian Sheng. It's time to go to Ling Lu's side, and now I can come to ask.

"Hmph, of course I know." Ling Lu said proudly, "The topic of the first competition given by Wang Dafei asked Empress Han Shanggong and Empress Cui Shanggong to each find some food so that the people can fill their stomachs. These Food can be something that the common people have never eaten, or it can be something that is on the ingredients but has never been used as an ingredient.”

A Chang blinked his eyes, a little confused.

Jang Geum and Jin Ying had pensive expressions, each thinking about what should be used to meet the topic that Wang Dafei asked this time.

After simply packing up some things to bring out of the palace in her own room, Jinying sat in the room with a small package in her arms, thinking about her own thoughts, as well as things related to this royal meal competition.

Now, the topic of the first test has been decided...

In other words, she and Jang Geum have no way out, they can only continue to compete, and they can only compete at this time.

Jinying sighed, thinking of what Jang Geum did, she is still very angry now.

It was obvious that he had made an appointment with her.

"Jinying, are you there?" Just when Jinying was still angry, Jangjin's voice suddenly came from outside the door. Jinying was a little confused. They met in the imperial kitchen just now. It's time to find her, is there anything else?

But speaking of it this way, Jinying remembered that Jang Geum seemed to have something to say to her at that time, right?It's a pity that she kept Jang Geum cold, and later Cui Shanggong and Han Shanggong went to find the two of them again, and there was no chance for Jang Geum to say what he said.

"Come in." Although she didn't know what Jang Geum wanted to say to her, Jinying remembered Jang Geum's expression at that time, and subconsciously felt that even if she was in a cold war with Jinying now, she had to listen to what Jang Geum wanted If you don't say it to her, she will regret it.

Never thinking that the word "regret" should exist in his dictionary, Jinying just hesitated a little, and then let Jang Geum in.

Sitting on the floor and facing Jinying, Jang Geum was a little cautious, and after taking a deep breath, he slowly calmed down.

"What do you want to say?" Jinying looked at the floor, her long eyelashes blocked her eyes like two small fans, so that Jang Geum couldn't see her eyes and her thoughts at all.

After shaking for a while, Jang Jin woke up with a start, remembering her purpose of coming here, and then her hands subconsciously grabbed her skirt, and many folds appeared on the smooth skirt.

"Jinying, we... let's take advantage of this royal meal competition to have a competition between the two of us." Jang Jin felt that she couldn't bear it any longer. Confused, sometimes she doesn't know how to move forward.

Therefore, instead of waiting for the future without knowing what will happen, it is better to hold what you want now. Only the things that you can hold tightly can truly belong to her.

"Ah? Competition?" Jinying didn't expect Jang Geum to say these words. This royal meal competition is a competition between Han Shanggong and Cui Shanggong under the arrangement of Zheng Shanggong. The competition is to see who is more capable. It is even more able to win the favor of the superiors, and the prize of this competition is the most noble position in the imperial kitchen of the main hall.

The winner will take over the position of the most noble palace from Zheng Shanggong and fulfill the greatest wish of a court lady.Those who lost were kicked out of the imperial kitchen, and no matter where they went, they could no longer enter the imperial kitchen.

And for the two of them, Shangzan, it was also a competition.

The selection of Shangzan's wife is indeed a test of the level of the ladies in the Shang Palace. The outcome of the competition between them is the standard for judging which of the ladies in the Shang Palace has a higher level of selection.

"That's right, the competition is no different than anything else. We will judge the winner or loser based on the result of this imperial meal competition, and see who the empress who follows can win. If the empress of Han Shanggong wins, then I will win the contest between us. You You have to promise me one thing, something that you absolutely cannot refuse." Jang Jin became calmer as he spoke, and looked at Jin Ying quietly, with a very insistent expression.

She will do her best to win, for Han Shanggong and for herself.

As long as she can win this victory, she can tell Jinying her feelings and tell Jinying her feelings for her.

Jang Geum does not expect Jinying to have the same feelings as her, nor does she hope that a competition can tie Jinying to her side, she just hopes that she can take this opportunity and let Jinying know her thoughts.

It would be even better if Jinying could have the same vague feelings for her as she did.

"Similarly, if Empress Cui Shanggong wins, then you win the bet between us. I will promise you one thing, and I will never refuse no matter what it is."

"Won't you refuse...?" This sentence made Jinying suddenly think of something.

Since it's your choice...

"I agree." Jinying chose to agree to this competition without hesitation. The position of the most noble palace was already destined to be Cui Shanggong, but she did not expect it to develop to this point now.

Although the current situation is something they did not expect, but since it has already developed to this point, it doesn't matter if she agrees.When she had just made up her mind, Jang Geum offered to make a bet with her, and it was destined that Jang Geum would be dragged into the quagmire by her.

If I win, you will give up Han Shanggong and become a subordinate of the Cui family, and stay in the imperial kitchen with me.

Even... such a decision would go against Jang Geum's nature.

The knife in Ling Lu's hand dropped one by one, and she cut the cucumber in half irregularly without knowing it. Her eyes kept looking at Jinying who was cooking beef soup outside. Obviously, Ling Lu's thoughts were fundamental Not on cooking dishes.

The right hand unconsciously continued to drive the knife to continue cutting cucumbers, until she felt the cold sharp blade on her left hand, which made Lu wake up, preventing her right hand from cutting along with the inertia.

Now that she was completely indifferent to cooking, Ling Lu simply put down her work and went outside, where Jinying was cooking beef soup.

"Jinying, is this really okay?" When Jinying came back, she also saw that the beef that Jinying brought back was not the best part, neither the beef nor the bones were the best, so it was boiled like this of
