Tian's little cook

Chapter 655 I Wish She Wasn't So Smart
Feng Keqing got permission, and then continued: "The imperial court will select the imperial chef twice a year, and this time at the beginning of the year is at the end of this month. The imperial court selects the imperial chef, mainly recommended by well-known restaurants in the capital."

"Recommendation?" Lin Zhimo thought he was signing up for the screening, but he didn't expect the qualifications to be so strict. "Then I'm going to find a restaurant to be a cook for ten days first?"

But in less than half a month, the restaurant might not recommend her, right?

"Don't worry, Miss Lin." Feng Keqing said with a smile, implying: "There just happens to be a family."

Lin Zhimo was taken aback for a moment, and then he understood: "Yang Xiaotang?"

How could she have forgotten that Yangxiaotang is Lin Jiao's secret property, and it is quite famous, so it is not a problem to recommend her.

"Yes, although Miss Lin can go directly, but before participating in the screening, it is best to be a cook in Yangxiaotang first, so as to prevent others from being suspicious."

It is not enough for the imperial chef to cook well. The most important thing is to have a clean family background. After all, he cooks for the people in the palace, so he can't be careless.

"I understand." Lin Zhimo was originally a cook, and cooking was not tiring for her at all.

Feng Keqing said something about the selection of the imperial chef, and Lin Zhimo nodded as he listened.

At the end, she suddenly looked at Huangfuchu and asked, "Lin Jiao, what kind of food does your mother like to eat?"

During the time she was talking with Feng Keqing, Huangfuchu remained silent.

Every word they said made him realize that he had personally agreed to let Lin Zhimo go to the tiger and wolf den in the palace.

Huangfu felt his own weakness again. If he had enough strength, he would definitely be able to protect Lin Zhimo under his wings instead of letting her take risks for him.

"Linjiao?" Lin Zhimo called him again, jokingly said, "What's the matter? Are you hungry after listening to us talking about cooking? Tell me what kind of food your mother likes to eat first?"

"I'm not hungry." Huangfu returned to normal at the beginning: "My mother and concubine are from the south of the Yangtze River. Although they have been in the capital for many years, they still like Jiangnan cuisine the most."

"Jiangnan cuisine?" Lin Zhimo thought about it, and it happened that she had stayed in a Hangzhou restaurant before and knew how to cook a lot of Jiangsu and Zhejiang dishes.

"Then I mainly cook Jiangnan dishes in Yangxiaotang." One of Lin Zhimo's purposes in entering the palace was to meet Concubine Wu, "It will be easier for me and Lin Jiao's mother to meet."

Feng Keqing nodded in agreement, "Miss Lin is reasonable and considers things very carefully."

Lin Zhimo's work as a cook in Yangxiaotang was left to Jinghong to handle, and he would naturally stay in the restaurant every day to protect her.

The shopkeeper of Yangxiaotang was from Huangfuchu, so Jinghong took Lin Zhimo to discuss with the shopkeeper first, and at the same time make some other preparations.

Lin Zhimo said goodbye to Huangfuchu reluctantly, and told him in a low voice not to worry about himself.

After Lin Zhimo left, Huangfu Chu sat on the chair for a long time without moving, pinched Lin Zhimo's used teacup in his hand, and said for a long time: "Mr. Feng, am I too useless?"

"Your Highness, to achieve a great event, you must give up something." Feng Keqing knew Huangfu Chu's pain, but the road to the emperor was never smooth sailing.

"For the future of you and Ms. Lin, and for the sake of the people of the dynasty, we can only do this." Feng Keqing saw that his face was even more ugly, and comforted him: "Besides, Ms. Lin is smart enough and will definitely complete the task satisfactorily."

"But I would rather she not be so smart." Huangfu Chu squeezed his hand hard, and the white teacup was crushed instantly, stained with a little blood, very red and dazzling.
