Chapter 809: Chapter 809: Connection (1)

The fur of the Fire Fox was quite rare; the cloak on Lin Ziyin’s body alone took twenty fox furs to make, purportedly prepared by Alhatu as a betrothal gift for the future princess. The string of pearls hanging around Lin Ziyin’s neck wasn’t a common ornament either; these pearls had been worn by Empress Dowager Du Lengcang for many years, reportedly gifted to her by the previous Empress Dowager.

The simultaneous appearance of these two items on the body of Princess Ling signified what? Princess Ling herself might not know, but Maya had a vague idea.

"Maya, let’s talk later, I am starving, let’s hurry and go eat," Princess number six raised her voice upon seeing the complexity in Maya’s eyes.

Maya snapped back to reality.

The current situation was already beyond Maya’s control. Yesterday afternoon, Princess Ling had been granted an audience with the Empress Dowager and even dined with her. It could be said that Princess Ling’s reputation was at its peak. Princess number six had intentionally raised her voice as a warning to her.

After weighing the situation several times, Maya decided to back off from stirring trouble for now.

"Great, I am here to eat too, I will host today," Maya’s beautiful face lifted into a smile.

Something was off; as her best friend, Princess number six knew Maya well. Maya’s gaze had just been fierce, and suddenly she had let it go, which was very abnormal. Princess number six secretly became more alert!

Kashen was the name of the restaurant, which was quite unique. However, Lin Ziyin didn’t mind, thinking that perhaps the customs of the North Country were just that unusual.

"Princess Ling, you are the guest, you order first." Once inside the restaurant’s private room, Maya immediately put on the host face.

Quite polite! Princess number six was fairly satisfied with her behavior and smilingly chimed in, "Kashen is the most famous restaurant locally. They often introduce delicious dishes because the owner gathers the best of various traditions. Any dish mentioned by the merchants who come and go is something they strive to craft, so the guests here need to reserve their spots in advance."

"Oh?" Lin Ziyin got interested. It was rare, indeed, for an ancient person to know about integrating the best from various sources. She never arrogantly thought that the restaurant opened by the Lin Family was the best.

A restaurant that gathers the best of various schools could be said to be the most promising, and even without ordering yet, she had already taken a liking to the shopkeeper.

"Could you recommend a signature dish?" Lin Ziyin asked the attendant.

"My dear guest, you’ve asked the right person. Our restaurant has just developed new dishes these past two days, ready to launch today. Would you like to try them?" The attendant served with a big smile, very attentive.

"Oh? There are new dishes?" Princess number six asked excitedly, clearly a regular customer by the sound of it.

"Yes, just finalized and planned to be introduced today," the attendant responded proudly, nodding.

"What are they?" Princess number six was intrigued.

"One is deep-fried ice cream, and the other is ’Birds Returning to the Nest,’" the attendant quickly reported the dishes.

"Those names are quite unique, serve them," Maya urged impatiently, her mood sour, not really caring about the food.

Hearing the names of the dishes, Lin Ziyin was moved, yet her face showed no hint of it, "Princess number six, you order the rest of the dishes since this is my first time here and I’m not familiar with this place."

"Sure." Princess number six smiled and agreed before listing a long string of dish names, "Today, my treat."

"Princess number six, we had agreed that I would treat," Maya said unhappily. She also came from an aristocratic background and was not short of silver. Even though dining at Kashen was quite expensive, she could afford several meals.
