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

What is a jianbing guozi?

"Pancake or fruit?"

"Good heavens! Heaven has opened its eyes! Madam Shen has released a new product again!!!"

"..."

The atmosphere was incredibly lively. If Shen Qing hadn't set the rules beforehand, everyone would have wanted to rush straight into the Zhiwei Restaurant.

Prince Nangong Jing was standing right at the entrance of the restaurant.

He didn't queue, nor did he care about any rules. As the crown prince of a country, he was not the kind of person who would queue!

As soon as the restaurant opened, Nangong Jing rushed straight inside.

He was determined to try it today and see just how delicious it could be while it was still hot.

"Hey hey hey!" The person at the front of the line grabbed Nangong Jing's sleeve.

"What are you doing? Trying to cut in line?"

"I've been in first place since yesterday!"

This man was burly and strong, clearly skilled in martial arts. At that moment, he was glaring angrily at Nangong Jing.

It was as if Nangong Jing's opportunity to be reincarnated wasn't just cutting in line, but rather a chance for him to be reborn.

Nangong Jing was startled, but then he thought, "He is the Crown Prince."

So he grew bolder, puffed out his chest, raised his fat head, and spoke arrogantly:

Do you know who I am?

"I am the Crown Prince! Let go of me right now!!"

"The Crown Prince?" A hint of suspicion flashed in the diner's eyes. "You? The Crown Prince? You look like a pig in a pigsty, and you want to cut in line?"

He grabbed Nangong Jing by the collar and threw him out.

A burst of laughter erupted from the surroundings.

The main reason is that Nangong Jing spends all his time eating, drinking, and having fun, and he is extremely fat, especially his belly, which is like a ball.

Coupled with his cloudy eyes, he exuded a foolish air.

"Hahaha, the pigs in the pigsty, that's such a perfect description."

"It's outrageous that there are still people impersonating the crown prince trying to cut in line these days."

"So what if the real Crown Prince comes? Even the Emperor himself is willing to queue up for the delicious food of Lady Shen."

"..."

It was so embarrassing; Nangong Jing felt incredibly ashamed.

He was furious; how dare these lowly people be so rude!

It's a pity he didn't bring any soldiers with him today, otherwise he would have arrested them all.

"I really am the Crown Prince!!!" Nangong Jing shouted, trying to overwhelm these people with his status.

Shen Qing calmly replied, "No matter who you are, you have to queue up to come to Zhiwei Restaurant."

"However, the line is too long today, I'm afraid you won't be able to get a table. If you want to eat, please come earlier tomorrow."

After saying that, she ignored Nangong Jing on the ground.

It doesn't matter if it's a real prince or a fake prince; whoever comes, they all have to abide by her rules.

The first diner spat at Nangong Jing on the ground, then instantly broke into a big laugh and eagerly called out to Shen Qing:

"Madam Shen, give me a serving of those fruit!"

"Please wait a moment," Shen Qing replied politely.

The griddle was already hot. She brushed a thin layer of oil on it, scooped a spoonful of batter into the center, and quickly spread it evenly with a spatula.

Before long, a large, round pancake appeared on the griddle.

Then take an egg, crack it onto the crepe, quickly break the yolk with a scraper and beat it to spread the egg evenly over the entire crepe surface.

Before the egg mixture dries, grab a handful of chopped green onions, cilantro, and sesame seeds and sprinkle them directly onto the pancake.

Soon, the edges of the crust curled up, and I quickly used a spatula to lift it up along the edges and flip it over.

Then brush the prepared sauce onto the tortilla, add two slices of crispy crackers, ham, bacon, and some lettuce.

Then roll up the whole pancake and cut it in half.

"Your jianbing guozi is ready."

The freshly made jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe) is placed in a brown paper bag, and the hot steam carries its aroma.

The outer crust is golden brown, with egg and chopped scallions faintly visible. Sesame seeds are embedded in the crust, which is square and slightly cracked at the edges, allowing you to clearly see the golden-brown crispy crust and dark brown sauce inside.

Nangong Jing, standing next to him, stared wide-eyed.

He could even smell an enticing aroma.

The aroma is a blend of various scents: the smell of eggs, the aroma of crispy pancakes, the salty aroma of sauce, and even a faint hint of scallion.

"It smells wonderful, so wonderful! Madam Shen, it has to be you! You truly are the most beautiful woman in the world!"

The diner couldn't hold back any longer, and while eating heartily, he shouted as if he was about to take off.

Caught off guard by Nangong Jing's expectant expression, he immediately shoved the jianbing guozi in his hand right in front of Nangong Jing's mouth.

Nangong Jing's eyes lit up immediately.

Wow, it smells even better now! The fragrance hits your nose directly.

"For...for me?" He swallowed hard, not even having time to think about why the burly man who had been so fierce just moments before was suddenly being so nice to him.

The burly diner chuckled and waved the jianbing guozi (a type of savory crepe) in front of Nangong Jing's eyes.

Nangong Jing's eyes followed the jianbing guozi (a type of Chinese crepe).

It's like teasing your dog with a bone.

"Hurry up and let this prince have a taste. Just tell me what you want." Nangong Jing couldn't resist anymore and said while drooling.

Just when he thought he was about to get what he wanted, suddenly, the jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe) was farther away from him.

And it's getting farther and farther away!

So far away, he watched helplessly as the jianbing guozi (a type of Chinese crepe) went into the big man's mouth.

The burly man took a big bite, chewing as he said, "Tsk tsk tsk, I can see it, but I can't eat it~"

"It smells so good, so incredibly good!!"

Then, regardless of whether Nangong Jing lived or died, he strode out of the Zhiwei Restaurant.

He had to help Madam Shen punish such unruly diners.

Otherwise, Madam Shen would be too tired.

Nangong Jing was in extreme distress.

How can there be such a despicable person?

This is outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!!

He's the Crown Prince! He's the Crown Prince!

Smelling the fragrance in the air, Nangong Jing couldn't help but lick his lips.

I'm angry, but... I still want to eat it.

This jianbing guozi smells delicious; it's definitely better than yesterday's mala xiangguo (spicy stir-fry).

After thinking for a moment, he walked up to one of the diners in the queue and said in an affected manner, "Give me this seat. As for how many taels of silver you want, just go to the county government office and collect it. I, the Crown Prince, will decide."

Diner: "???"

Buying a spot without paying cash—is this just empty promises?

"Get out of here, how could the Crown Prince be such a person?"

Nangong Jing took a deep breath. No, how did he not look like the Crown Prince?

Helpless, he could only pull out a silver note from his pocket.

"Here you go, this fifty taels of silver. Give me your seat."

He didn't want to use his own money, but now he really had no other choice.

"Fifty taels is not a small amount, but I really can't sell this seat. Today I must try the new dishes." The customer was unmoved.

A nearby diner chimed in, "This is Madam Shen's food. It used to be easier to get a seat, but now... I suggest you come back tomorrow."

"That's right, people who come to Zhiwei Restaurant to buy food aren't short of money, are they?"

"Locations are hard to buy."

Nangong Jing: "..."

Is this Zhiwei Restaurant bewitched? Status is useless, money is useless.

Is food all these people care about?

However, it does smell delicious...
