Ye An’an traveled through time and became a secondary consort of the Crown Prince—but the Crown Prince was famously both anorexic and a cleanliness freak.
.
On their wedding night, the Crown Prince ran away, and the whole capital city laughed at her misfortune.
.
Good news: Ye An’an brought a full set of modern culinary skills with her and was living happily ever after… by herself!
.
While everyone else was scheming for favor in the palace, Ye An’an was in her little kitchen making jianbing guozi (Chinese crepes), filling the air with a fragrance that carried for two miles.
.
Unexpected result: The Crown Prince didn’t eat any, but his personal eunuch ended up stuffed.
.
The Crown Prince’s reaction: “Damn it… why am I salivating?!”
.
Then the Empress arrived, intending to scold her daughter-in-law for being disrespectful.
.
Ye An’an was busy in the courtyard making teppanyaki, oil dripping from her mouth.
.
Unexpected result: The Empress rolled up her sleeves and said, “Bring me the extra-spicy skewers!”
.
The Emperor’s reaction: “The Empress has lost her mind… wait, these chicken wings are kind of… addictive?”
.
When the Crown Prince’s ministers came to discuss state affairs, the atmosphere was solemn.
.
Ye An’an brought out a steaming hot hot pot.
.
Unexpected result: The ministers forgot all about state matters and started fighting over the meat, forcing the Crown Prince to personally protect the food.
.
Everyone’s reaction: “This Eastern Palace… is probably going to be renamed ‘Imperial Kitchen, Second Branch!’”
