Although she was feeling very unhappy now, she had to take this dinner seriously.

"Hmph, what are you so proud of?" Liu Shanmei couldn't help but snort as she looked at Zhen Caicai leaving.

In the front hall, Liu Shanchen is currently attending to a young eunuch from the palace.

When Zhen Xi came over, she saw Liu Shanchen talking with the young eunuch.

Seeing how the other party was communicating with each other so warmly, especially Liu Shanchen, he seemed to be trying to please him.

I don't know since when, the originally simple Liu Shanchen has become a little strange to her.

"Cai Cai, you're here!" Liu Shanchen stood up immediately when he saw her.

With a surprised smile on her face, she cherished seeing him like this and looked at him deeply, then nodded and looked at the little father-in-law sitting there.

"I've met my father-in-law!" Zhen Xi was still very polite and saluted him. After all, none of the people serving the emperor in the palace were arrogant.

The young father-in-law, who was originally drinking tea, saw Zhen Zhen Xi saluting him, so he put down the tea cup in his hand with a smile and stood up.

"Mrs. Liu, you're welcome if you don't eat fish! I'm here today as well. I want to talk to you and take a menu back!"

"Please, father-in-law, please wait a moment while I go to the study to sort out the menu I need." Zhen Xi bowed slightly.

"good!"

Zhen Xi left.

She came to Liu Shanchen's study, simply found some paper, silently picked up the brush, and began to think about various dishes in her mind.

The dishes for the emperor's birthday must not be too simple, so she had to think of some elegant names and very pleasant dishes.

Zhen Xi thought about it while writing down the names of each dish, plus the ingredients needed.

It took me a whole morning to write this. After all, the emperor's birthday banquet was attended by many civil and military officials, and the amount required was also very large.

One hundred and eight meals, each dish must be served at least 50 times.

108 dishes plus four soups. Definitely a big lineup.

Finally, the little father-in-law was left to dine.

After lunch, Zhen Xi slowly handed over the list she had written.

"Father, the list is all there. However, the materials used are relatively large, and it will definitely be difficult for me to make these dishes by myself. Could you please go back and tell the prince that we need manpower.

Moreover, I think that the top five people who participated in the cooking competition this time can all cook a birthday banquet for the emperor together!"

"I will definitely convey Mrs. Liu's request!"

"Thank you, father-in-law! Father-in-law, please go slowly!"

After watching the carriage slowly leave, Zhen Xi breathed a sigh of relief, but her brows furrowed tightly again.

"Fourth brother, I didn't expect that this time, the emperor would pay so much attention to this birthday banquet." Liu Shanmei looked at the carriageway leaving.

"Well, this time it's the emperor's fiftieth birthday! It's indeed a bit more grand, so we can't be careless!"

"That's right, Fourth Sister-in-law, there must be no carelessness this time. This is related to the fate of our Liu family!"

Zhen Xi turned her head and glanced at them: "You don't need to say more, I understand myself."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left.

In the afternoon, a small north wind blew, and layers of white slowly fell from the air.
