Prodigious Princess Qin Zetian - Chapter 9

(Qin Lushan’s POV)

“Your sister is not an ordinary young lady” the fourth prince commented as he inserted his sword on the scabbard. The soldiers and the guards stationed inside the manor haven’t recovered from the shock that they have seen.

“What happened today should not be spread, anyone who does will be beheaded and his family will perish with him!” the third prince said

“we abide your highness!” the men echoed

“She looked like a flower dancing in the field when she fought with fourth brother, however I think she’s just on par with you. What do you say big brother?”

“She did not give her best that was merely us sparring” the fourth prince answered, even I have no doubts with his claims but where did she learn martial arts?

I have not heard from father that she has lessons in martial arts and is already profound at it. I must investigate these weird things that she’s showing, but for now I need to conceal things. I sighed, she has changed so greatly.

“Big bro, you mean to stay she’s only concealing her real strength? Wow! So cool”

“Lushan, from how you described her before it seems like she has changed” the second princess made her statement

“Indeed”

We decided to head inside to have lunch.

Coincidentally lunch is being prepared by my sister.

“Wow! the food is delicious here!” the fifth prince is known for his big appetite apparently he never got fat because of excessive military training. He sat down, then my mother, my father and my third uncle came in.

“Oh! I never thought the imperial children will grace this house with their presence. Welcome to our humble home your highness’ shall we take our seats and grab lunch”

“It’s been so long since we last ate like this, the food is great! Older brother did you hire a new batch of kitchen personnel? Such food served today are appetizing and the recipes are mostly unfamiliar to me.” my third uncle commented

“Call the head chef for me”

My father let his guard call the head chef.

“Greetings to the royal children, greetings to the masters, to the madame and to the young miss. I am the head chef of the manor and if you have queries I will be honored to answer them”

“Tell me who prepared the food?”

“Answering to the master it is the third miss’s idea and recipes came from her. We are glad to help her.”

“Ze’er you prepared lunch?”

“En, I was bored so I decided to have fun in the kitchen, I hope father won’t push the matter further.”

“Good! Good child ah!” my third uncle laughed

Then we started to dine. Ze’er explained how we could eat the pig barbecue and everything else in the menu. She has broadened our horizons.

“Master Qin, perhaps I want to ask permission from you and the madame, I’d like to bring the third miss with me. I love her way of cooking and I’d be glad if she could teach me.”
