Shocking! The entire court was drooling with envy because of me.

Zhao Gou was terrified when he heard this.

God, sisters, do you know what you're saying?

He quickly ran up to Shen Qing and started another round of winking and gesturing for Shen Qing to agree.

Shen Qing: "Sir, is your eye condition acting up again?"

What kind of eye disease is this, sis? Your head's about to fall off!

Zhao Gou was almost in tears, constantly wiping his neck with his hand, trying to make Shen Qing understand.

Suddenly, he felt a tremendous force pushing him.

Good heavens, Gao Quan Hong pushed him aside.

"This is none other than His Majesty the Emperor! His presence at Zhiwei Restaurant is a tremendous honor for you. Now, quickly hand over all the delicious food!!"

Gao Quan Hong lowered his voice even further.

The emperor beside him raised his head even higher, looking superior.

Shen Qing: I guessed it.

However, this emperor is too ugly; he looks too unreal.

Moreover, she didn't have a good first impression of the emperor. What kind of emperor could an emperor be who insisted on building palaces despite the empty national treasury?

System, if someone tries to force a sale...

Don't worry, host. The system will protect you in an emergency.

The system's voice echoed in my mind.

Shen Qing was completely relieved.

Besides the system's protection, she also possesses unparalleled martial arts skills.

What's there to be afraid of?

"Sorry, one per person, that's the rule, no one can buy that." Shen Qing's lips even had a slight upward curve.

So many diners are queuing up, everyone wants to eat, so why should the emperor have the right to eat more?

This is not fair.

At her Zhiwei Restaurant, everyone is equal, not even the emperor.

The emperor was just waiting for Shen Qing's flattery, pleas, and adoration, and was secretly looking forward to a big meal, when he heard the cold words, "No one can come."

His eyes widened, his cloudy pupils bloodshot: "You...didn't you hear what he said?"

"I heard you." Shen Qing didn't show any extra expression. "Welcome to Zhiwei Restaurant."

"So...so all...is that all? Welcome?"

Enjoy your meal.

emperor:"......"

He felt like he was being mocked.

The ruler of all people, the supreme sovereign, and this young lady just casually dismissed it?

"How dare you speak like that! You have some nerve!" Gao Quan Hong started barking like a dog. "Zhao Gou, go over there and teach this little vixen a lesson!"

Zhao Gou was dumbfounded: "Me...me?"

"Hurry up!!" the emperor roared, truly enraged. "Just don't kill him."

It's one thing if she didn't know his identity, but to act like this even after knowing it's his is simply unforgivable.

However, considering how good her cooking is, he'll only let Zhao Gou beat her up once.

Zhao Gou glanced at Shen Qing, the pain of being beaten a few days ago still vivid in his mind.

He is afraid.

"I...I don't have that ability."

"How about we come back another day to eat Bo Bo Chicken? Grilled sausage is delicious too, let's go eat grilled sausage first," Zhao Gou sincerely suggested.

He didn't want to be beaten; it would be best to make peace.

If a fight really breaks out, we're doomed.

Who knows, Madam Shen might even beat up the emperor.

It doesn't matter if the emperor is beaten, but I'm afraid of his retaliation. If that happens, his sisters will be doomed!

"You coward, you piece of trash!!" Gao Quan Hong roared in fury, "I've spoiled you for nothing!"

"If you won't go, I'll go myself!"

This young lady is really going too far. Gao Quan Hong is second only to the emperor. When has he ever been treated like this?

Today, we'll teach this young lady a lesson!

Gao Quan Hong gathered his strength, took a step forward, and thrust his palm straight at Shen Qing's face.

Shen Qing smiled slightly and gently blocked with his hand.

Snapped--

Gao Quan Hong collapsed to the ground.

The force was too great; he felt as if a thousand pounds were pressing down on him, and he simply couldn't bear it.

A sharp pain shot through my wrist; it felt like... it was broken.

"You...you..." Gao Quan Hong was dumbfounded.

Wait, what's going on here?

How can a young woman be so powerful?

Everything happened too fast; Zhao Gou had no time to stop it.

The emperor looked alarmed and involuntarily took a few steps back.

Zhao Gou was on the verge of collapse. He rushed forward and stretched out his arms to block the emperor.

"Madam Shen, for the sake of our sisterhood, please hit him but don't hit my master! I'm begging you!!"

As Shen Qing wiped his hands with a damp cloth, he said, "I never hit people indiscriminately."

"But if anyone provokes me, I won't hold back."

His voice remained calm, yet it inexplicably exuded a certain coolness.

"good!!!"

A diner behind shouted.

"Madam Shen is amazing! These people who don't follow the rules deserve to be beaten!"

"Wow, these guys are really something! Haven't they heard of Madam Shen's exploits? A few days ago, someone caused trouble, and Madam Shen took direct action. In no time, the person was on the ground. I was regretting not seeing that scene, but I didn't expect these people to do it all today."

"Lady Shen is the most beautiful and the most handsome!"

"..."

A murmur of discussion reached the ears of the emperor and his entourage.

Zhao Gou was somewhat embarrassed, mainly because he was the one who was beaten last time.

Ugh, what bad luck, so bad luck.

Even our ancestors wouldn't listen to advice.

Gao Quan Hong lay on the ground, in excruciating pain, his old face turning red and white in turns.

How embarrassing, so incredibly embarrassing.

He was the Grand Eunuch of the Directorate of Ceremonial, responsible for approving and stamping all imperial edicts; he was second only to the emperor.

Now he's lying on the ground, being mocked by others.

This is just terrible luck.

The emperor, who was above all others, wasn't in much better shape either.

He usually has the final say, gets whatever he wants, and everyone has to go along with him. If he wants something, he can definitely get it.

But today...

This is utterly absurd, utterly absurd!

"Perhaps we should leave first," Zhao Gou suggested cautiously to the emperor, supporting Gao Quan Hong.

If we stay any longer, who knows what kind of trouble we might cause.

His fragile heart can't take it.

The emperor gritted his teeth: "Let's go!"

He glared fiercely at Shen Qing.

He will avenge this humiliation!

He still didn't believe he couldn't handle a young woman.

The three of them walked out in a disheveled state.

We've gone halfway.

The fierce-looking emperor suddenly stopped in his tracks.

"Um... what are grilled sausages and sparkling water?"

Zhao Gou: "..."

Gao Quan Hong: "..."

"According to those rules, we should still be able to buy, right?" The emperor licked his lips.

Gao Quan Hong felt so angry he could hardly breathe.

Wouldn't it be embarrassing to turn back now?

Even if we don't steam buns, we'll still have some pride!

"...It should be possible," Zhao Gou answered cautiously, "but..."

But it's really embarrassing.

The emperor completely ignored what Zhao Gou said afterward.

He turned around and headed straight for the sparkling drink stall.
