《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 1 plot introduction

In the bustling Yongan City, Juxian Lane is the most lively area.In Juxian Alley, the two most famous restaurants are the magnificent Yunlai Restaurant and the famous Guixiang Restaurant, which is famous for its elegance.However, what is most favored by the people of Yong'an City these days is an inconspicuous small restaurant.To be precise, the owner of this restaurant does not belong to this era. This all started two months ago.

Shen Shaoguang, who lives in Lianshan Hutong, decided to shoot a short period video about cooking for ancient people in order to boost the business of his newly opened restaurant. The shooting location was Yunshuiyuan, the ancestral home of the Shen family.Father Shen Jianshe, mother Li Fengxia and brother Shen Shaojie immediately expressed their support. The family also took their niece Shen Yangyang to Yunshuiyuan to worship their ancestors and pray for them to bless the restaurant's business.

Shen Shaoguang once heard his great-grandfather talk about the glorious past of his ancestors. Lin Yan, who was the Shaoyin of Jingzhao at that time, even married into the Shen family.In this case, Lin Yan must appear in the short video to make it more attractive.So, Shen Shaoguang immediately ran to the scenic area compound and prepared to stop a male tourist.She ran a few steps after a man and found herself at the back door of her former residence.

Shen Shaoguang opened the door carefully and saw an ancient bustling city.When she was full of doubts, thick fog came behind her, and she was forced to run into the busy city to escape.After a while, she realized her family was there.Shen Jianshe and his wife were discussing what had just happened. Shen Shaojie explained that they were currently in the middle of a script killing.Suddenly, someone yelled "Jinwu Guard is arresting someone". The man on the reward order struggled to escape, accidentally bumped into a sedan, lost his footing and died.At this time, Shen Shaoguang realized that what he was seeing was not a script, but a real time travel.

The family first found an inn to stay.Li Fengxia feels that the most important thing now is to return to the era before time travel.Shen Jianshe and Shen Shaojie both agreed, but couldn't think of any way.Shen Shaoguang said that since he crossed over from Yunshui Garden, he had to find a way through the gate of Yunshui Garden.Shen Shaoguang and Li Fengxia came to the gate, but were told by the guards that this was the residence of Jingzhao Prefect and they were not allowed to enter without valid reasons.

For several days, the Shen family could not find a suitable solution.Shen Shaoguang asked around and finally heard that Yin Linyan of Jingzhao Mansion was about to take office. At that time, he could explain his identity and maybe get accommodation and go back in time.But the gold jewelry they brought had been spent. In order not to go hungry, Shen Shaoguang suggested setting up a stall to sell pancakes and fruits to earn some money, and then find an opportunity to get close to Lin Yan.

On the day Lin Yan took office, Emperor Yuanfeng refused to go to court on the grounds of physical discomfort, but ordered Lin Yan to appear alone.Lin Yan had just handled a corruption case. The magistrate Dou involved in the case was a relative of Concubine Dou, and Emperor Yuanfeng was very dissatisfied.Lin Yan then listed out the evidence of Magistrate Dou's crimes in a clear and logical manner. The people all praised him, and Emperor Yuanfeng stopped pursuing him.Since Lin Yan had been ordered to serve as governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, he asked him what his governance plan was.Lin Yan said that food is the most important thing for people, so he plans to start from Juxian Lane, which is famous for its food.

Attendant Liu Chang accompanied Lin Yan on his way to Jingzhao Prefecture. He saw many people gathered around Fangshi and stopped to watch.Shen Shaojie is hawking Shen Jianshe's pancakes and fruits, which will be sold in limited quantities at auction.Upon seeing this, Lin Yan stepped forward to stop him, pointing out that Shen Shaojie had violated the law by driving up market prices, and planned to take him to the city department for conviction.Shen Jianshe saw Lin Yan aside and found that he was very similar to the hanging statue in the ancestral hall, so he hurriedly told Li Fengxia.

Li Fengxia ran to Lin Yan to admit his mistake for Shen Shaojie. After confirming that it was Lin Yan, she also became excited.Lin Yan repriced the pancakes and left.Shen Shaoguang was directly waiting in front of the Yin Gate of Jingzhao Mansion to sell pancakes. When he saw Lin Yan's carriage approaching, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. He accidentally overturned the pancake carriage and a round pancake immediately stuck to Lin Yan's face.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 2 plot introduction

Shen Shaoguang hurried to Lin Yan and asked Lin Yan to forgive him after announcing his home.Lin Yan remembered at this moment that Shen Shaojie had just confessed to Shen Shaoguang, saying that he was the mastermind behind driving up the market price.He quickly told Shen Shaoguang not to continue messing around, otherwise he would be flogged in the busy city.In the evening, Shen Shaoguang learned that Shen Shaojie had confessed himself. He was so angry that he gave Shen Shaojie a severe lesson.

The first attempt almost failed. Shen Shaoguang was unwilling to accept it and decided to continue setting up a stall in front of Jingzhao Mansion, thinking that this would attract Lin Yan's attention.But for several days in a row, the only business at the stall was selling pancakes. Lin Yan went in and out of Jingzhao Mansion several times and didn't even have the time to take a second look.

After the morning court, Censor Pei Pei asked Zhang Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs to show him the documents for the new transfer of officials. Zhang Shilang sent Pei Pei away with a few words.Lin Yan happened to be passing by at this time. When he saw this scene, he approached Zhang Shilang's carriage and said that the document Pei Pei requested involved the assessment of Jingzhao Mansion.Seeing Lin Yan helping to speak, Zhang Shilang immediately agreed.Later, Lin Yan invited Pei Pei to his house for dinner, and Pei Pei was very grateful.

After dinner, Lin Yan took Liu Chang to enter Yunshui Garden, a place where Lin's father had stopped him from entering.But when they arrived at the door, they were stumped by a Western Region lock on the door.

Shen Shaoguang decided to use a big move and made many posters of Overlord Dinner, folded them into paper airplanes and threw them into the courtyard of Jingzhao Mansion.Lin Yan noticed that there was a free sample pancake on the poster, and suddenly remembered that the Shen family spoke and acted very strangely, as if they were deliberately attracting his attention, so he decided to find a chance to find out.Pei Pei was thinking about how to invite Lin Yan in return without showing that he was short of money. He happened to pick up the flyer distributed by Shen Shaoguang and offered to take Lin Yan to taste it.The Shen family finally expected Lin Yan to be their guest, and they were so excited that they kept asking for a drink.

Lin Yan pretended to be drunk, and the Shen family began to search him for the key to Yunshuiyuan.Shen Shaoguang went too far and put his hand directly into Lin Yan's clothes, and Lin Yan grabbed her hand.Liu Chang, who was guarding the door, immediately appeared and took the Shen family back to Jingzhao Mansion for interrogation.Shen Shaojie remembered that his grandfather once said that Lin Yan was very cold and ruthless before he met Mrs. Shen. Now when he saw Lin Yan taking out several instruments of torture, he immediately fainted with fright.

Lin Yan asked the Shen family why they were following him, but no one dared to say anything.He drew his sword and prepared to kill someone.Shen Shaoguang was so anxious that he remembered the record about Lin Yan in the genealogy and said that she was his fiancée.Lin Yan really hesitated.Shen Shaoguang guessed that he was right, so he added that Lin Yan was from Qingyang, and his original name was Cui Che.Lin Yan was even more surprised. Except for Liu Chang, no one in the capital knew his original place of origin.

Shen Shaoguang recalled in his mind what his grandfather had said about Lin Yan. When he was eight years old, the Cui family was exterminated and Lin Yan changed his name and survived. He was the in-law arranged by the Cui family early, so he knew about the Cui family, but he would never disclose it to the outside world.According to the rules of the dynasty, once Lin Yan's identity is revealed, his in-laws will also be implicated.Lin Yan felt relieved a little, and Shen Shaoguang proposed to live in Yunshuiyuan in the name of his country cousin.Lin Yan refused, so Shen Shaoguang shouted loudly and asked Pei Pei to seek justice on the grounds that the governor of Jingzhao had an affair with his fiancée and then abandoned her.Pei Pei had been drunk for a long time and was sleeping soundly. Shen Shaoguang wanted to go out to greet people. Lin Yan had no choice but to agree.

After the Shen family moved into Yunshuiyuan, they hurriedly apologized to the place where their ancestors' portraits were hanging.Liu Chang eavesdropped outside the door and found that the Shen family mostly communicated in modern languages. Shen Shaoguang even spoke a few words in English, which Liu Chang couldn't understand at all.Liu Chang reported the developments of the Shen family to Lin Yan. Lin Yan vaguely remembered that the in-law arranged by his parents was from a family named Zheng, so he asked Liu Chang to pay more attention to the Shen family.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 3 plot introduction

In order to make Lin Yan relax his guard, Shen Shaoguang suggested that the whole family pretend to be poor relatives who have fallen in love with the new rich, so as to paralyze Lin Yan and find a way to travel back.Shen Shaojie took Shen Shaoguang to experience the clean toilet in Jingzhao Mansion, while Shen Jianshe and his wife paced back and forth in the yard, pretending to appreciate the beautiful scenery. Even his niece Shen Yangyang followed Shen Shaojie and kept brushing her teeth to show her surprise when she first saw the toothbrush.

During the meal, Lin Yan greeted Shen Jianshe and Li Fengxia. The Shen family members were worried that their lives would be shortened, so they had no choice but to bow along with Lin Yan in return.Lin Yan has never been very particular about his diet, so he only prepared whole grains.Shen Jianshe thought that cooking in the kitchen was slow, but Liu Chang told him that Lin Yan's daily diet only consisted of whole grains.Lin Yan began to test again, asking the Shen family if they knew what happened after the Cui family came to Beijing.Shen Shaoguang thought that his grandfather had not said this, so he had to think quickly and claimed that he had known for a long time that he was not worthy of the Cui family and would have to break off the engagement sooner or later, so he stopped asking too much since the Cui family came to Beijing.Finally getting over it, Lin Yan left the Shen family to eat while he went to the morning court.

After the meal, Shen Jianshe proposed to walk the route before crossing again, maybe he could go back through time.So, several people formed teams and walked again the way they came, but after opening the gate, they still couldn't see the modern scenic spot Yunshuiyuan.Shen Shaoguang remembered that since he traveled through the ancestral hall, he should have to go back through the same way, but the ancestral hall was guarded by soldiers and it was difficult to get close.Shen Jianshe thought that he could send one person to approach the ancestral hall first, so as not to attract attention. In the end, the whole family unanimously decided that Shen Shaoguang would take charge.

After Lin Yan returned from the imperial court, he dismissed the guards and went to the ancestral hall to try to unlock the door.He had previously studied that the number on the lock contained Huo Xunguo's number, and it would take tens of millions of attempts to crack the random code.Shen Shaoguang arrived at the ancestral hall one step later than Lin Yan. When he saw that there were no guards at the door, he thought he was lucky.Lin Yan and Liu Chang heard someone coming in and hurriedly hid behind the screen to observe.Shen Shaoguang saw the Western Region Lock at a glance. It was exactly the same as the one she had seen before traveling. She remembered the password she had seen before and quickly opened the lock and entered the secret room of the ancestral hall.

I thought I could go back in time, but when I opened my eyes, I found a warehouse in front of me with books placed everywhere.When she was full of doubts, Lin Yan suddenly stood behind her and asked her what her intention was when she entered the secret room.Shen Shaoguang explained that he accidentally walked into the ancestral hall while walking and then entered the secret room.The Shen family has done business before, so they are sensitive to numbers.Seeing that Lin Yan was a little less aggressive, Shen Shaoguang left in a hurry.

Liu Chang guessed that the Shen family might be the backbone of the enemy's family, and deliberately approached Lin Yan, hoping to explore the secrets hidden by the Cui family.No matter what the true identity of this family is, since they have entered the secret room, it is most important to investigate first.Lin Yan found a note in his father's handwriting, which recorded the February of the year of the incident. His father had already discovered that someone was manipulating the Ministry of War's appointment, and guessed that something bad might happen if he continued to investigate, so he sent Cui Che and his son back to the countryside early. Unexpectedly, they were still slandered and died unjustly in prison.Even if a note is presented in court, it won't be of much use. If you want to overturn the case, you have to find more evidence.

Shen Shaoguang told his family about the process of unlocking the door of the ancestral hall, and the whole family unanimously believed that the ancestral hall was the only way to travel through time.Li Fengxia suggested that you think about what you have done before traveling through time. There may be hope in repeating it.Shen Jianshe remembered that his family had worshiped the hanging statue of his ancestor together, so he decided to worship the real person again.In the evening, when Lin Yan was sleeping, the Shen family neatly walked into Lin Yan's bedroom carrying tributes. After worshiping, they found that they still had not traveled through time.When several people looked at each other, Lin Yan had already stood up and sat beside the bed, which frightened them so much that they dared not speak.

The Shen family was imprisoned in the woodshed, and Liu Chang notified Shen Shaoguang alone to see Lin Yan.Lin Yan asked her if she sneaked into her room at night to commit murder and who ordered her to do so.Shen Shaoguang thought for a moment and explained that collective worship is a family tradition of praying for blessings. The family moved into Jingzhao Mansion and caused trouble. They felt bad about it, so they prayed for their benefactor at night.Lin Yan temporarily believed her and then tested her true identity.Shen Shaoguang found that Lin Yan was not firm, so he insisted that he was the in-law he had arranged for when he was a child. Now that Lin Yan had been promoted to a high official, if he looked down on his poor in-law, he could take his family away.Lin Yan hurriedly explained that that was not what he meant.

《The banquet meets Yongan》 Episode 4 plot introduction

After the Shen family was released, Shen Shaoguang knew clearly that Lin Yan did not believe the so-called blessing rhetoric at all.So she once again began to summarize her previous failed experiences.Shen Shaojie felt that the main problem lay in the time-travel script written by Shen Shaoguang.But Shen Shaoguang discovered that everything happening now was very similar to the plot in the script.

After the accidental time travel, the ancestor was very strange to his family, and his attitude was extremely cold and harsh.Later, I cooked a meal of spring water mutton on a full moon night, and my ancestors were very satisfied after tasting it, so they allowed their family to travel back in time.Since the development of things is highly consistent with the script, it's better to continue acting.Lin Yan ate whole grains every day. Shen Shaoguang thought that he could start with food to dispel his doubts first, and then find a way to get close to him.

Lin Yan planned to sneak into Dali Temple to search for files. At night, he set out in black clothes and masked face. Unexpectedly, he met Shen Shaoguang who had just come out of the kitchen on the way.Lin Yan was worried that Shen Shaoguang would reveal her secret, so she forced her to reveal the identity of the person behind it.Shen Shaoguang thought that Lin Yan had discovered the secret of the family's time travel, and hurriedly explained that the rest of the family didn't move around much, and their family's financial situation was not good, so no one would take them seriously.However, Lin Yan regarded every word of Shen Shaoguang as a test by the enemy and asked Shen Shaoguang to take him to meet the person behind the scenes as soon as possible.

After the two separated, Lin Yan felt that since the Shen family had been abandoned by the people behind the scenes, it was of little use to him.So, he asked Liu Chang to deal with the Shen family.After Liu Chang stunned several people, he took them to the yard and prepared to dig a hole for burial.While digging, Shen Shaoguang woke up unexpectedly and attacked Liu Chang from behind.

Lin Yan once again took advantage of the night to visit Dali Temple. When he left, he was discovered by patrolling officers and soldiers.He fled all the way to Jingzhao Mansion. When he saw Shen Shaoguang waking up his family, he stepped forward to ask why.At this time, the officers and soldiers had already chased them to the gate of Jingzhao Mansion.Shen Shaoguang said that he could help Lin Yan escape the pursuit of officers and soldiers, but asked Lin Yan to remember his life-saving grace.

Shen Shaoguang took Lin Yan's cloak and bamboo hat, walked to the door and told the officers and soldiers that he had just gone out to find food and violated the curfew.But the officers and soldiers refused to give up.Lin Yan walked to the door and said that he was not strict enough in managing the foreign guests in his house, so he paid the fine according to the regulations.After the officers and soldiers left, Shen Shaoguang directly pulled out the sword from the scabbard that Lin Yan carried with him, wanting to take revenge.Although the Shen family acted a little stupidly, they had no intention of harming anyone at all.Lin Yan shook Liu Chang awake after being knocked unconscious and asked him why he wanted to harm the Shen family.Liu Chang explained that he acted according to Lin Yan's wishes, and then he realized that he had only listened to the literal meaning and had caused a misunderstanding.

Shen Shaoguang said that he had originally prepared a sumptuous meal for Lin Yan, but he did not expect that he would be repeatedly suspicious of him.Lin Yan also felt very guilty, so he took Liu Chang to apologize to Shen Shaoguang in person.After the meal, he rushed to wash the dishes.Shen Shaoguang asked Shen Shaojie to replace Lin Yan, then brought Lin Yan to the yard and served a bowl of Qingyang snack rice tofu.Lin Yan was very moved because rice tofu is a craft that only Qingyang people can make.But he didn’t know that in the Internet age, there is no delicious food that cannot be found.Moreover, the rice tofu made by Shen Shaoguang is sweet, exactly the same as what Lin Yan's mother loved to make during her lifetime.

King Zhao, who had raised Lin Yan, sent a message from Sushui City to Fei Ge, asking Lin Yan to get close to Princess Fuhui and inquire about the movements in the court.The eldest princess's consort, Xiao Wulang, has been in a coma after falling from his horse several years ago, and he is still awake.Unless there were major changes, King Zhao would never inquire about the movements of the DPRK.Moreover, Lin Yan's father once mentioned Xiao Wulang in his notes, which should be related to the murder of the Cui family.Shen Shaojie tried to make a pot of spring water mutton, and planned to make it again according to the same recipe on a full moon night and offer it to Lin Yan.There was still some time before the full moon, and Shen Shaoguang suggested making some money first so that he could bring something with him when he traveled back in time. So the family decided to continue selling pancakes and fruits the next day.

《The banquet meets Yongan》 Episode 5 plot introduction

Lin Yan heard in the court that Princess Fuhui was about to hold a Chinese Valentine's Day poetry party and invited scholars and celebrities to the banquet.Princess Fuhui always behaves casually, and even invites some merchants to hold poetry gatherings every year.However, Jingzhao Mansion did not receive the invitation.For Lin Yan, this poetry fair was an excellent opportunity to get close to the eldest princess, and he could only try to get an invitation.

After Lin Yan's instructions, Shen Shaoguang emptied all the kitchen utensils in Jingzhao Mansion and used them to make pancakes and fruits for sale.Lin Yan speculated that when something happened to the Cui family, the Shen family must have been implicated as well, so he couldn't pretend not to know about it.Therefore, if Shen Shaoguang has any needs, Liu Chang should try his best to meet them.

Shen Shaoguang and Shen Jianshe were still setting up stalls on the streets, but no one showed up for several days.When the two were wondering, they saw many people passing by holding pancakes and fruits.After asking, I found out that Yunlai Winery had copied their recipe and the price was half as low as theirs, which attracted customers.Shen Shaoguang had no choice but to buy all the flavors of pancakes and fruits at Yunlai Restaurant, trying to find a solution.

When Lin Yan ate with the Shen family, he didn't know that these pancakes came from Yunlai Winery, and praised them for their unique taste.The Shen family was a little embarrassed after hearing this. Shen Jianshe explained that Yunlai Winery copied his own recipe, but there was no way to explain.Li Fengxia hurriedly said that she would handle her own affairs and could not cause trouble to Lin Yan.

Shen Shaoguang thought for a moment and suddenly realized that resisting others was not a good idea.Yunlai Restaurant imitates its own, and more businesses in Juxian Lane will follow suit in the future.It is better to change direction as soon as possible so that others cannot keep up with you.Lin Yan didn't understand what “track” was, so Shen Shaoguang quickly explained that it was his family's term for communication.

The next day, Shen Shaoguang started selling mutton skewers and used live broadcast to bring the goods.Shen Jianshe was in charge of grilling skewers, while Li Fengxia and Shen Shaojie were shouting to help, and soon attracted customers in front of Yunlai Winery.As soon as Lin Yan came down from court, Pei Pei asked him to have dinner with him again.I heard that the merchant who used to sell pancakes and fruits started to grill mutton skewers and the prices were affordable, so I insisted on taking Lin Yan to taste them.Little did they know that the mutton used by the Shen family came from Lin Yan's monthly salary.

The two came to Juxian Lane. Shopkeeper Feng of Yunlai Wine Shop saw that the Shen family had taken away the business, so he clamored to throw this ignorant competitor into prison.Lin Yan came forward to speak, which frightened shopkeeper Feng into hurriedly apologizing and helping the Shen family sell mutton skewers.The diners crowded the Shen family's stall, and Pei Pei suggested eating at another restaurant.When the two were about to leave, Li Fengxia gave Lin Yan a handful of mutton skewers to try, and accidentally called him “son-in-law”.After hearing this, Pei Pei insisted on asking what happened.

Lin Yan explained that Shen Shaoguang was his in-law, and he fled to Yong'an because of the disaster at home.Pei Pei said that you must not marry into a merchant family, otherwise it will affect your official promotion.But after tasting a few skewers of mutton, he was impressed by the deliciousness and said that it didn't matter his family status when marrying a wife. It was enough to enjoy such delicious food every day.

In the evening, the Shen family sat around counting money, with smiles on everyone's faces.It's a pity that life in ancient times had many inconveniences, otherwise I would really be reluctant to travel back in time.Shen Shaoguang suggested continuing to work hard to make money. Mutton kebabs tend to make people feel greasy and the raw materials are expensive. It is better to prepare some drinks and sell them together.

The next day, brother and sister Shen Shaoguang started selling drinks, and soon caused a sensation in Juxian Lane.Lin Yan bought mutton skewers and drinks and invited Pei Pei to his house for dinner.Hearing that Pei Pei's salary advance was rejected by Zhang Shilang, he asked him what the use was.Pei Pei explained that he had received an invitation from the eldest princess and wanted to buy some cloth to make new clothes for the poetry festival.Since I haven't received the money in advance, I don't plan to go.Lin Yan offered to let him choose his own clothes.Pei Pei asked Lin Yan if he would attend. After learning that he had not received the invitation, he offered to help. This was just a trivial matter for Yushitai.It just so happened that the eldest princess was dissatisfied with the chef in the house, so Lin Yan could bring a good chef with innovative ideas to participate.

The leader of the Yulin Army came to Juxian Lane and asked Shen Shaoguang to make a few buckets of drinks and deliver them to the army.Shen Shaoguang said that the food in the military is a national matter and it is not convenient for outsiders to mix it, but the formula can be sold and they can take it back to the military camp to prepare it themselves.The leader of the Yulin Army was very happy and bought the formula at a high price.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 6 plot introduction

Lin Yan found Shen Shaoguang and proposed to host the eldest princess's Qixi Festival poetry party.Shen Shaoguang discussed the matter with his family. Shen Jianshe felt that it would be the night of the full moon soon and it would be inappropriate to get involved in too many affairs.However, when they learned that the reward for hosting the poetry show was a gold brick, the whole family's attitude immediately changed.

Shen Jianshe and his wife went out to buy the necessary items, while Shen Shaoguang was busy preparing in the kitchen alone.But Shen Shaojie couldn't pull him away at all, and he couldn't help at all.Lin Yan was worried that the Shen family would be overburdened, so he took the initiative to help in the kitchen.Shen Shaoguang put on his apron and sleeves for Lin Yan, and the two talked and laughed.The Qiao Qiao Festival is coming soon. Shen Shaoguang also talked about his different views on the legend of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl. Lin Yan agreed very much after hearing this.

On the day of the poetry meeting, Pei Pei wore Lin Yan's clothes and looked particularly refined.When Lin Yan saw this, he couldn't help but praise him.Only then did Pei Pei realize that he was being teased about his shabby clothes, and the two bickered for a while.The eldest princess was very satisfied with the food at the poetry party, so she specially allowed the Shen family to sit down and drink together.Li Fengxia was worried that Shen Jianshe would make mistakes if he talked too much, so she specifically told him to talk less and not cause any trouble.

Liu Feng, the young boss of Guixiang Restaurant, also came to the banquet.In previous years, the poetry gathering was always hosted by Guixiang Restaurant. Liu Feng had eaten the pancakes, fruit and mutton skewers made by the Shen family in Juxian Lane, and also tasted the unique sweet-scented osmanthus cake at the banquet. He respected the Shen family very much.Shen Jianshe poured the wine into a jar to sober up, and Liu Feng was very curious.Shen Jianshe brought the sobered wine to Liu Feng to taste, and talked endlessly about his life experience.

During the dinner, several noble sons were very dissatisfied with the Shen family's behavior of clinging to the Jingzhao Mansion.Li Fengxia was worried that Shen Jianshe was talking nonsense, and when she was about to step forward to stop him, she accidentally touched the wine glass of Mr. Lu who was provoking trouble.Mr. Lu immediately became reluctant and continued to belittle the merchants.Upon seeing this, Lin Yan immediately came forward and said that the eldest princess was about to sit down at the table, and Mr. Lu was openly causing trouble, obviously not taking the eldest princess seriously.After hearing this, Mr. Lu had no choice but to leave wisely.Shen Shaoguang was about to apologize to everyone, but Lin Yan said that the Shen family had done nothing wrong and there was no need to apologize.

After everyone sat down, Shen Shaojie couldn't help but complain about the prejudices of the world. He believed that merchants and merchants were also ordinary people and should be treated fairly.Liu Feng, who is also a businessman, was very touched after hearing this and couldn't help praising Shen Shaojie for his original remarks.Shen Shaojie became more and more enthusiastic, talking about marriage equality and rejecting the view of machismo.The aristocratic ladies nearby expressed their collective approval. This was the first time they heard the statement that women should be respected.The eldest princess then sat down and listened to Shen Shaojie's few words. She felt very fresh and even stopped to look at Shen Shaojie.

After the poetry meeting, the Shen family received a reward several times higher than previously promised.The eldest princess specially announced Shen Shaoguang's visit and asked her if she would like to work as a chef in the mansion.Shen Shaoguang said that the whole family is from the countryside, does not understand the rules and etiquette, and is planning to leave Yong'an in the next few days.At the same time, she also thanked the eldest princess for her tolerance for some accidents caused by the poetry meeting.The eldest princess said that she only rewarded a few more pieces of silk, but no more favors.

Only then did Shen Shaoguang realize that Lin Yan had paid the Shen family out of his own pocket.When she was about to return it, Lin Yan said that Shen Shaoguang helped her get to know the eldest princess and should accept the gratitude.Shen Shaoguang no longer refused.Liu met Lin Yan and gave all his salary to Shen Shaoguang for the past two years. Thinking that the Shen family would have no worries, he reminded Lin Yan that he could publicly break off the engagement with the Shen family.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 7 plot introduction

Finally, the full moon night arrived.Shen Jianshe had already stewed the spring mutton. Although the family still had some nostalgia for Jingzhao Mansion, their biggest wish was to travel back to their original place as soon as possible.Lin Yan arrived a little later. He took a bite of the mutton and couldn't help but praise the delicious taste.When the Shen family members saw Lin Yan nodding in approval, they were so excited that they cheered collectively and expressed their gratitude to Lin Yan one by one.Li Fengxia told Lin Yan with concern that in addition to handling official duties, she should also pay more attention to her health.Shen Shaojie wished Lin Yan smooth sailing in his official career.Lin Yan was a little confused and didn't understand why the Shen family was so happy together. He originally wanted to mention the cancellation of the engagement, but when he heard that the Shen family was planning to leave, he felt there was no need to mention it again.

The lobby is carefully decorated, with beautiful downlights like fireflies flying in the night sky.Shen Yangyang couldn't help but sigh.Lin Yan remembered that there was an open space at the back door of Jingzhao Mansion, where many fireflies often gathered, so he took Shen Shaoguang and Shen Yangyang there after dinner.

Shen Yangyang was completely immersed in Liuying's graceful beauty, and Shen Shaoguang was also filled with emotion.After getting along for a while, he found that Lin Yan was cold on the outside, but very warm on the inside and treated people very sincerely.It's a pity that he is just a passerby in Yong'an City. Lin Yan also said that he felt the same way.

After Shen Shaojie became famous in the eldest princess's mansion, he successively received letters from many noble ladies in Yong'an City, and some even secretly expressed their love for him.Shen Shaojie was so intoxicated that he decided to take all these letters back as his spiritual sustenance in the future.

According to the script, the family will return to the present day after sleeping on a full moon night.But everyone seemed a little reluctant to part with it, so they put aside those unrealistic guesses and drank a lot of wine as a family.Early the next morning, Shen Shaoguang dreamed that he went to a gold shop to exchange banknotes. When he was so excited, he was woken up by the maid, and then he realized that they had not succeeded in traveling through time at all.

Shen Shaoguang thought carefully about which link had gone wrong, but Shen Shaojie didn't feel sorry at all. He felt that when he returned to modern times, he would be a layman with no merits, but he was very popular in Yong'an.Shen Jianshe is very much looking forward to the second year's MasterChef competition, maybe he can get first place to prove himself.Li Fengxia believes that it is easier to make money in Yongan than in Hyundai.Shen Shaoguang really couldn't think of a way to go back through time, so he decided to stay.

Shen Jianshe and Shen Shaojie successively tried to explain the situation to Lin Yan, but they couldn't open their mouths and just cooked a table of sumptuous meals.Li Fengxia had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain to Lin Yan that they could not leave for the time being, but they would not eat and live in vain. The family planned to open a restaurant in Juxian Lane, and they would be responsible for cooking three meals for Lin Yan every day, and they would also pay the rent at the end of the month.Lin Yan didn't seem to be disgusted and just let the Shen family live in peace.

Liu Chang found that Lin Yan was in a particularly good mood after learning that the Shen family would no longer leave, and he even walked with the same hands and feet.As brothers who live and die together, Liu Chang was happy for Lin Yan, but he reminded Lin Yan that the engagement must be terminated immediately.Pei Yushi always speaks casually and doesn't care much about these things, but if someone with intentions catches the matter, the past events of the Cui family can easily be implicated.

The next day, Shen Jianshe and his wife started renting a house.After comparing several houses, they found a house in a corner that was not too big.The owner of the house, Kang Yuanwailang, is an expert on food taste in Yong'an. He specifically warned that the house should only be rented to people who open restaurants.Yaren also specifically explained that there is an attic not far from the back door of the house, and the middle part can be expanded for use in the future.Li Fengxia specifically asked if doing so would violate the regulations. Yaren said that Yunlai Winery had expanded to a larger area and no one was taking care of it.

On the other side, Lin Yan is investigating the illegal expansion of Yunlai Restaurant.Every restaurant in Juxian Lane has a backer, and the relationship is intricate.Liu Chang suggested that Lin Yan should just be superficial, but Lin Yan said that he could not sit down and have a plain meal.

Shen Shaoguang was still unhappy because he couldn't travel back in time. Other family members advised him to go about his business with peace of mind. Maybe he could suddenly go back at some point.Shen Shaoguang went to the lake to relax. When he was about to go back, a gauze scratched his face, blocking his sight. He suddenly lost his footing and fell into the lake.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 8 plot introduction

The moment Shen Shaoguang fell into the lake, a female worker from Yunlai Restaurant happened to pass by.She didn't even consider that she couldn't swim at all, and jumped into the lake without hesitation to save her.Unexpectedly, in the end, Shen Shaoguang relied on his survival instinct to pull her to the shore.Shen Shaoguang was grateful for the kindness of the female worker, who introduced herself as A-yuan.At this time, both of their clothes were soaked by the lake water, so A Fang enthusiastically proposed to take Shen Shaoguang to his residence to change into dry clothes.

The two of them got in through a hole in the wall of Yunlai Restaurant. Ayuan took out his clothes and asked Shen Shaoguang to change into them.Shen Shaoguang curiously asked A Yuan why he came out to work.A Yuan explained helplessly that he owed money and had to work according to the contract to repay the debt. It had been several years and he could not return to his hometown in Shuzhong.

Some officers and soldiers in Jingzhao Mansion, seeing Lin Yan's young age, did not take him seriously at all.Liu Chang suggested that Lin Yan give them some trouble, but Lin Yan said that these officers and soldiers were rough people and they were not evil-minded. They were just angry at being managed by a young man.So, Lin Yan took Liu Chang to the residence of the officers and soldiers.Chief Cheng Hu made rude remarks, but Lin Yan was not angry. Instead, he explained patiently that Jingzhao Mansion was like a hot potato to the children of the rich family, and no one would stay for long. But he was different. He was determined to achieve great results here.If the officers and soldiers can work hard and work hard, they will definitely be able to earn a family fortune in the future.

Li Fengxia saw Lin Yan establishing his authority among the officers and soldiers, and hurriedly presented the freshly made mutton skewers, hoping that Lin Yan would use this to get closer to the officers and soldiers so that they would obey.Cheng Hu realized that he had just been rude, and his attitude became respectful.

Shen Shaoguang and A Yuan chatted for a while, and both felt hungry.They found some miscellaneous rice, cooked a pot of porridge, and paired it with lard clear sauce, which gave it a unique flavor.When A Yuan was drinking porridge, several scars were revealed on her arms.Shen Shaoguang asked the reason with concern, but A Fang did not explain much.At this time, someone outside the door urged A Fang to go to work, so A Fang asked Shen Shaoguang to go back the way he came.

Li Fengxia specially left a bowl of rice tofu for Lin Yan and sent it to his room.Lin Yan was about to mention the matter of breaking off the engagement, but Li Fengxia said that the restaurant would be opening soon and there were many things that he needed to make decisions about, so Lin Yan had no choice but to mention it later.

After Shen Shaoguang returned to Jingzhao Mansion, he kept thinking about what A Yuan said about signing a contract to sell himself into slavery.Lin Yan just returned from his break, and Shen Shaoguang hurriedly asked about the process of becoming a slave.Lin Yan explained in detail, and Shen Shaoguang discovered that A Yuan did not become a slave according to the formal procedure at all.So, he hurried to Yunlai Wine Shop to tell A Yuan about this.

As soon as I walked to the door of Yunlai Winery, I heard the angry voice of shopkeeper Feng coming from inside.After listening carefully, it turns out that Shopkeeper Feng fell in love with A-Yuan, but A-Yuan refused to obey, so Shopkeeper Feng continued to violently abuse her.Shen Shaoguang pretended to return his clothes and entered the door.Seeing the fierce look in Shopkeeper Feng's eyes, he proposed to sell A-Yuan to him so as not to make Shopkeeper Feng angry.

But Shopkeeper Feng said that A-Yuan was the slave he bought, the deed of sale was in his hands, and he had no intention of selling it to anyone else.When Shen Shaoguang saw that his good words had no effect, he was ready to leave.A Yuan reluctantly pulled the corner of Shen Shaoguang's clothes. Shen Shaoguang knew that Shopkeeper Feng was very powerful and did not dare to speak anymore.

After going out, Shen Shaoguang heard Shopkeeper Feng's voice becoming more vicious as he lectured A Yuan. He couldn't stand it anymore, so he broke in again.He exposed Shopkeeper Feng for forcing a good girl into a lowly position and asked Shopkeeper Feng to hand over A-Fuan's deed of prostitution.Shopkeeper Feng was furious and called the servants to surround Shen Shaoguang, preparing to teach him a lesson.At this moment, Cheng Hu brought officers and soldiers from Jingzhao Mansion for a routine inspection.Shopkeeper Feng asked the handyman to keep an eye on the two of them and went out to greet them.

Cheng Hu mentioned that due to illegal expansion of Yunlai Winery, when the bookstore next door caught fire two months ago, it was impossible to put out the fire in time.Shopkeeper Feng insisted that there was no illegal expansion, and even called several neighbors to testify. None of those neighbors dared to go against Shopkeeper Feng's wishes.Lin Yan arrived shortly afterwards, decisively ordered the demolition of the illegal buildings, and then broke into the courtyard alone.

Lin Yan asked Shen Shaoguang if he had been bullied, and asked Shopkeeper Feng to hand over A Fuan's contract of betrayal.Shopkeeper Feng was afraid of being sued, so he swallowed the prostitution contract in one bite.Shen Shaoguang hurriedly took A Fang away.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 9 plot introduction

When Shen Jianshe and Shen Shaojie were carefully selecting tablecloths, Shen Shaoguang took A Fang back to the restaurant.He took out a bunch of copper coins and handed them to A Yuan, asking A Yuan to go back to Shu to be with his family.However, A Yuan said that he had no relatives and would have nowhere to live even if he returned to Shuzhong, so he asked Shen Shaoguang to stay and do some odd jobs for him, for no wages, just to be able to eat.With that said, Ah Yuan picked up the broom and began to clean up the garbage on the floor.Shen Shaoguang didn't know what to do for a while.

Li Fengxia pulled Shen Shaoguang into the yard and persuaded him that keeping A Yuan was just to get one more bite of food every day, and besides, the restaurant had just opened and was short of manpower.But Shen Shaoguang was worried that shopkeeper Feng would not let the matter go easily.Shen Jianshe said that since the family set up a stall in Juxian Lane, they have been in love with Shopkeeper Feng, so there is no need to think too much, just take it step by step.

Shen Shaoguang was still a little hesitant.When he returned to the room, he found that A Yuan had left.At this time, Lin Yan came to help, but Shen Shaoguang didn't want to say anything and ran out of the room alone, with Lin Yan quickly following behind.

Shen Shaoguang explained that it was not that he was unwilling to protect Ah Yuan, but that ordinary people had limited abilities and could not afford to offend Shopkeeper Feng.Lin Yan saw that Shen Shaoguang's palm was scratched by a stone, so he took out his handkerchief to bandage him, and said that Jingzhao Prefecture did not care how many people lived there, and he could provide shelter.Shen Shaoguang was very grateful.Seeing that it was going to rain, Shen Shaoguang knew that A Yuan was injured, so he insisted on looking for someone. Lin Yan also accompanied him in the search.

In the end, A Fang stayed in the hotel to work, and she wanted to give the deed of betrayal to Shen Shaoguang.Shen Shaoguang tore up the deed of prostitution and told Ayuan that she was free and would be paid accordingly for working in the restaurant.Although A Yuan couldn't quite understand it, he firmly believed that Shen Shaoguang was very kind to him.

The Shen family made fish balls to welcome A Yuan, and Lin Yan also ate together.Shen Shaoguang proposed to position his restaurant as a place that ordinary people can afford, because Yunlai Restaurant is too extravagant, and Yongan City is still dominated by ordinary people.The whole family agreed, and Lin Yan also felt that Shen Shaoguang's idea was unique.Shen Shaojie named the restaurant “Mortal Joy”.

Shopkeeper Feng was very worried about A Fang being rescued. After hearing that Shen Shaoguang was Lin Yan's distant cousin, he decided to find an opportunity to take revenge.

At the “Mortal Music Restaurant, everyone had a great time eating. Lin Yan had not left even after the curfew time.Li Fengxia then suggested that he sleep on the floor of a restaurant for one night.Lin Yan finally got the chance and pulled Shen Shaoguang to the backyard. He hesitated for a long time before proposing to break off the engagement.He was originally worried that Shen Shaoguang would be hit, but unexpectedly Shen Shaoguang was extremely excited and said that he had been planning this matter every day.With that said, Shen Shaoguang ran back to the room and wrote down the divorce contract. Shen Jianshe and Li Fengxia accompanied it and handed it to Lin Yan.

At night, a wild cat broke into the backyard of the restaurant.Lin Yan couldn't sleep, so he looked around to see if anyone was awake like him.Accidentally, he got next to Shen Shaoguang.Shen Shaoguang happened to turn over and saw Lin Yan staring at him. After asking, he learned that there was a cat meowing.So the two ran to the backyard together.

Shen Shaoguang held the wild cat in his arms and said that he had liked cats since he was a child.Lin Yan simply helped write the cat hiring letter, proving that the wild cat officially belonged to Shen Shaoguang.Shen Shaoguang was very excited and hugged Lin Yan's neck. After a moment, he felt something was inappropriate and hurriedly let go.The two discussed it and named the cat ”Xiao Ming%.

Yunlai Restaurant was punished for illegal construction. After the notice was posted, the people praised Lin Yan for his courage, especially the Shen family who took the lead in applauding.Shopkeeper Feng was so angry that he said on the spot that Shen's restaurant would not be open for long.Shen Shaoguang asked Guangdong Street to testify that if something unexpected happened to his restaurant, it would be Shopkeeper Feng who was behind it.Shopkeeper Feng didn't have the upper hand at all and turned around angrily and left.

On the day Shen's restaurant opened, everyone from Juxian Lane came to support it.The design of the restaurant is unique and gives people a refreshing feeling.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 10 plot introduction

As soon as the restaurant opened, it was packed with seats.Shen Jianshe was so excited in the kitchen that he couldn't help but boast.Li Fengxia quickly reminded him that her daughter was taking care of all matters concerning the restaurant's design.However, Shen Jianshe brought out the theory of genetic inheritance and insisted on giving credit to himself.

When the restaurant was busy, two diners who were engaged in the lumber business in Yong'an suddenly got into an argument.A Yuan was so frightened that she didn't know how to deal with it.At this time, Shen Shaoguang walked up to the two of them and said: “The style of my wooden bench is very popular here. I can give you the design and we can make a fortune together.” After hearing this, the two shopkeepers were very satisfied. Apart from being grateful, they also admired Shen Shaoguang's business acumen.

Shen Shaojie stole the show, answering emotional questions for the ladies of Yong'an City every day, which became a major feature of the restaurant.When Shen Shaoguang saw that his brother had finally become more prosperous, he couldn't bear to disturb him. Fortunately, A Yuan was there to help.

A few days after the opening, Shen Shaoguang took A Fang to visit the West Market.She bought a hairpin at a high price and gave it to A Yuan, and A Yuan felt loved like a family member.When the two passed by Yunlai Restaurant, they saw the same menu as the Shen Family Restaurant posted in front of the door.Shopkeeper Feng stood at the door and shouted loudly, saying that Yunlai's new cuisine was better than that of Shen's Restaurant, and the price was only half of that of Shen's Restaurant, which instantly attracted many customers.

Shen Shaojie went to the street to inquire about the activities of Yunlai Winery, and Li Fengxia became anxious and restless.Shen Jianshe felt that he could use the same method to counter Yunlai Restaurant and copy several of its famous cuisines.He went to the kitchen to study it. After Shen Shaojie tasted it for a few bites, he frowned and found it hard to swallow.Moreover, these dishes use some expensive raw materials, which are simply not affordable.

Half a day later, Shen Shaoguang came back with Ah Yuan and bought half a fan of pork and an iron pot.She explained that she cannot afford to compete on price and can only work hard on raw materials.Pork was very cheap in this dynasty, but after being stir-fried in an iron pot to remove the fishy smell and then processed, a variety of delicacies can still be made.A Yuan also explained, saying that the iron pot was specially made by blacksmith Wang from Xishi City, and most people had never seen this style.

Soon, Shen Family Restaurant launched a kind of agate meat.After some people saw that the raw material was pork, they all showed a look of disgust. They felt that pigs were eating leftovers and it was not clean enough. After looking around for a while, they quickly dispersed.After Shopkeeper Feng heard about it, he showed a proud expression.

The Shen family held a family meeting.Shen Shaoguang believes that the current dynasty has a deep-rooted concept of disdain for pork, unless someone can try it in person to break this prejudice.She thought of Shen Shaojie, the opinion leader of the noble lady of Yong'an City.

Shen Shaojie summoned several ladies and explained to them that after processing, pork has no fishy smell at all. It is just traditional concepts that lead to class differences between humans and animals.A lady admired Shen Shaojie very much and took the lead in tasting the agate meat. She found that it was indeed delicious, as good as beef and mutton.Immediately afterwards, several other ladies also tasted it one after another, and they were all full of praise.

After confirming the taste of pork, the Shen family quickly launched various dishes using pork as raw materials, which were indeed very popular.Someone even specially made a plaque saying “Juxian’s No. 1 Chef” and presented it to him.Shen Jianshe's self-confidence was so high that he was simply arrogant. He gave Shen Shaojie a string of copper coins and asked him to hang up the plaque, and then started making some unsubtle remarks.

Li Fengxia saw Shen Jianshe getting carried away and immediately gave him a lesson.After being busy for several days, Shen Shaoguang didn't see Lin Yan, so he took advantage of the restaurant closing in the evening and sent Lin Yan a new dish - braised pig's trotters.It was the first time for Lin Yan to eat pork with such a unique taste. Regardless of the embarrassing appearance of eating it, he quickly drank it all.He also mentioned by the way that the business war between Yunlai Winery and the Shen family has been made a fuss by those who are interested. Many dignitaries in the Yunlai Winery have benefited from it. Now that they are affected, they will inevitably stir up trouble.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 11 plot introduction

Shopkeeper Feng specially bought a portion of agate meat and let the chefs taste it one by one.But no one believed that such delicious food could be made of pork, let alone imitating it.At this time, Lu Yun, the owner of Yunlai Restaurant, came to check the accounts and issued a strict order to close down the Shen Family Restaurant within five days, otherwise he would fire Shopkeeper Feng.

After Shen Jianshe received the plaque of “Juxian's No. 1 Chef”, he has been in a state of excitement.He specially bought a ring for Li Fengxia and kept thinking about a bright future.Li Fengxia saw that Shen Jianshe was becoming more and more unreliable, so she was so angry that she gave him a lesson.At this moment, several diners suddenly foamed at the mouth in the front hall.The two of them hurried to the front hall and saw that Shen Shaoguang was already dizzy with work. She quickly asked A Yuan to find a carriage and take the diners to the hospital first.

Since the poetry meeting, Princess Fuhui had turned a blind eye to the invitations sent by many princes and nobles, and only accepted the invitation from Lin Yan.Lin Yan knew that the eldest princess liked to be direct, so she simply asked directly about the major events that had happened in Jingzhao Mansion in recent years.The eldest princess told him that the Yinguan case ten years ago had shocked the government and the public, but the man behind the case was probably still hidden in the court.Lin Yan had heard about it for a long time, and now it was finally confirmed.The eldest princess had a good impression of Lin Yan, and while she was holding the ribbon and joking, officers and soldiers from Jingzhao Mansion came to report that a poisoning incident had occurred in the Shen family restaurant.

The family members of the poisoned person surrounded Shen Jianshe's restaurant and shouted that the restaurant must be closed down.Cheng Hu led people to stop those who were causing trouble, but the other party claimed that the Shen family were distant relatives of Lin Yan and were suspected of covering up.Lin Yan arrived at the scene quickly, and the troublemaker continued to publicize the relationship between Lin Yan and the Shen family.Seeing that the situation at the scene was complicated, Lin Yan ordered the restaurant to be cordoned off first.

The Shen family returned to Jingzhao Mansion to discuss countermeasures.Shen Shaoguang believed that he should take the initiative and not rely on Lin Yan for everything.So, she asked Shen Shaojie to pretend to be poisoned and claim that someone had deliberately poisoned him to frame him.Lin Yan came to check the situation and explained that the restaurant was blocked to make the troublemakers relax their vigilance. He had already found out that the housekeeper of Yunlai Restaurant had been to the West Market many times to discuss the purchase of mushrooms.Only then did the Shen family realize that they had wrongly blamed Lin Yan.

Shen Shaojie suggested continuing to pretend to be sick, and if necessary, fake death, and then fake the corpse to scare the housekeeper of Yunlai Restaurant.A Yuan said that Shopkeeper Feng did believe in ghosts and gods and had many shrines set up in Yunlai Wine Shop.In this case, Lin Yan agreed to give it a try.In the evening, A Fuan put on evil ghost makeup for Shen Shaoguang, and Lin Yan followed him to the back door of Yun Lai Restaurant.Shen Shaoguang climbed up to the roof, but accidentally stepped on the ground because it was dark. When he was about to fall to the ground, he was hugged by Lin Yan and landed safely.The two looked at each other, and Lin Yan told Shen Shaoguang to pay attention to safety.

Entering the courtyard of Yunlai Restaurant for the second time, Shen Shaoguang confronted the butler face to face, scaring the butler so much that he panicked and ran around.Many ladies held the portrait and asked the housekeeper why he poisoned Shen Shaojie.The housekeeper was so frightened that he had no choice but to admit that it was Shopkeeper Feng who instigated him to harm the Shen family.Cao Rongsheng from the Criminal Department handled the case and proved that there was nothing wrong with the Shen family restaurant, but Feng Li had escaped.In order to thank Lin Yan, the Shen family cooked another sumptuous meal.Shen Shaojie also lit incense and worshiped Lin Yan in person. Lin Yan just regarded it as a rural custom.

After dinner, Shen Yangyang insisted on learning Qing Kung Fu from Lin Yan.Lin Yan took Shen Yangyang to the top of the pavilion and flew back and forth. Shen Yangyang was so scared that she didn't dare to open her eyes, and then she remembered that she was as afraid of heights as Shen Shaojie.Shen Shaoguang was also curious about Qing Gong, so Lin Yan hugged Shen Shaoguang and flew to the roof, and then together they admired Yong'an City during the curfew.

Lin Yan asked if the Shen family was implicated when something happened to the Cui family.Shen Shaoguang did not give a clear answer and hurriedly changed the topic.Lin Yan asked where the Shen family was from. Shen Shaoguang replied that he was from the future town and shook hands with Lin Yan to become friends.Lin Yan thought it was quite novel. Seeing that Shen Shaoguang particularly liked the nights in Yong'an City, he proposed that there was no curfew during the Lantern Festival and that he would take Shen Shaoguang to visit Yong'an City together.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 12 plot introduction

On the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the eldest princess sent someone to invite Lin Yan to her residence to drink and admire the moon together.Lin Yan declined on the grounds that he was involved in official duties, and said he would come to apologize someday.Cheng Hu found out that this was the third time Lin Yan had rejected the eldest princess's invitation, so he jokingly asked Lin Yan what kind of woman he liked.Li Fengxia made moon cakes for the officers and soldiers of Jingzhao Mansion and sent them to them. Each moon cake was also accompanied by a lottery.Lin Yan got the paper label that said “Looking for a Beautiful Wife” and carefully hid it in his sleeve pocket.

The newly appointed Jingzhao Governor has been in office for two months, but there is still no progress in the case of the Cui family extermination.Lin Yan was so worried that he asked Liu Chang to return home alone, while he stayed to continue studying the case.At night, he couldn't help but think of the scene of admiring the moon with his family when he was a child, and his heart was filled with nostalgia.Liu Chang told him that there was no need to leave food for Lin Yan, so the Shen family simply brought dinner to Lin Yan's public house.During the meal, Lin Yan missed his parents even more.When Shen Shaoguang saw Lin Yan's melancholy expression, he asked a few questions. Liu Chang hurriedly found something to talk about.

Shen Jianshe was full of emotions. In the past, the conditions at home were not good, but Li Fengxia never disliked her. Instead, she kept the house in order.Now that he has made money, he bought a lot of jewelry for Li Fengxia, and the relationship between the couple has become more ideal.But Li Fengxia didn't like to hear this. She felt that Shen Jianshe only cared about his frugal behavior and did not give due respect to the couple at all.Now that he has made money, Shen Jianshe is even more forgetful and extremely proud.The two of them quarreled more and more fiercely, and finally broke up on bad terms.

Shen Shaoguang and Lin Yan went for a walk in the backyard, found a screen, and sat on one side of each other.Shen Shaoguang treated Lin Yan as a tree hole and poured out his thoughts.The quarrel between his parents just now made Lin Yan laugh. He often felt that his parents' behavior was not decent enough.Lin Yan said that he did not see the joke. The Shen family treated him as a family member, so he never thought of staying out of the matter.

Then, Shen Shaoguang acted as a tree hole again and listened to Lin Yan talk about the guilt he had always felt towards his parents.Lin Yan's father died unjustly, and the verdict has not been overturned for many years, which makes him feel really guilty.After hearing this, Shen Shaoguang walked to Lin Yan and gave him a hug, telling him not to blame himself.If his parents were still alive, I hope Lin Yan could live happily every day.Shen Shaoguang also specially made a moon dumpling stuffed with five kernels for Lin Yan to taste, and Lin Yan liked it very much.The two discussed whether the five-nut stuffing was better, and they talked about everything.Shen Shaoguang felt that if it weren't for the obstruction of seniority, Lin Yan would really be regarded as a confidant.Lin Yan suddenly came face to face with Shen Shaoguang, and they kissed each other while drunk.

After sobering up the next day, Shen Shaoguang thought of what happened the night before and felt disrespectful to his ancestors.So, she ran to Lin Yan and kept kowtowing.Lin Yan pretended not to know what happened. He only remembered that the two of them pretended to be a tree hole and ate Wu Ren Yue Tuan.Shen Shaoguang felt relieved and vowed never to get drunk or do anything inappropriate again.

After returning to the room, Shen Shaoguang began to have a high fever.Shen Jianshe and Li Fengxia argued again about whether to cover their sweat.Shen Shaoguang felt that the high fever was the retribution he deserved, but he did not dare to explain the reason.Li Fengxia and Shen Jianshe took turns giving her medicine, but Shen Shaoguang refused to drink it because it was bitter.Shen Shaojie suggested that Lin Yan give medicine. Considering his seniority, Shen Shaoguang did not dare not listen.Lin Yan sat beside the bed with the medicine bowl. Before he could speak, Shen Shaoguang took the medicine bowl and drank it in one gulp, not even daring to look at Lin Yan again.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 13 plot introduction

Lin Yan relaxed the curfew time several times and was impeached by the ministers. The emperor asked the reason. Lin Yan said that as the governance of Yong'an City became better and better, the people's pursuit of life was getting higher and higher, especially during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Strict control of the curfew time caused ghost markets to run rampant, which was even more detrimental to public security. The emperor believed that Lin Yan was right and agreed to slightly relax the curfew time.

After going to court, Pei Pei said that he felt a cold sweat for Lin Yan, but found that Lin Yan seemed to have a plan, so he waited for someone to impeach him and revealed his plan.When Cao Rong saw the two of them talking, he called Lin Yan aside and asked him to go to his house to talk.

Cao Rong took out a piece of handwriting for Lin Yan to look at, and mentioned that he and Cui Rangzhi were close friends seventeen years ago.After entering the Ministry of Justice, Lin Yan still couldn't believe it completely. He wanted to test whether Cao Rong would be willing to overturn the case for the Cui family if there was conclusive evidence. Cao Rong immediately took Lin Yan to see the emperor. Lin Yan saw Cao Rong's affection for the Cui family and admitted his true identity.

Cao Rong asked how Lin Yan was rescued that year. Lin Yan told him that his father had always exchanged letters with King Zhao. After the Cui family's accident, King Zhao's eldest son Li Sheng died of illness, so he took Lin Yan to his side to act as the eldest son. Cao Rong was very happy to see the son of his old friend. Lin Yan felt guilty that he could not find any clues. Cao Rong said that he had been investigating secretly. He only knew that Xiao Wulang, who was responsible for handling the case, was injured and comatose and is still awake.

Back at Jingzhao Mansion, King Zhao wrote to Lin Yan, requesting to inquire about the candidates for several vacant positions in the Ministry of War. Lin Yan thought that he could take the opportunity to ask the eldest princess about the prince-in-law Xiao Wulang. The eldest princess admired the Shen brothers very much, so she approached Shen Shaoguang and asked for help in making a meal to visit the eldest princess. Just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Shen Shaoguang suggested making a cloud-leg moon dumpling, saying that the marinating time was long, and he missed the Mid-Autumn Festival night, so the eldest princess would not mind.

The next day, Lin Yan was preparing to go out. When he passed by the kitchen, he heard Shen Shaoguang and A Yuan discussing themselves. Shen Shaoguang mentioned that although Lin Yan was young, he had seen the world and had connotations, and he couldn't help but feel happy for a while.

In the evening, the two of them were making gift boxes together. When Lin Yan suddenly asked Shen Shaoguang if he had hidden any secrets from his family, Shen Shaoguang listed a lot. He guessed that Lin Yan also had secrets, so he explained that it was reasonable to lie sometimes out of good intentions.

Soon, Lin Yan brought an exquisite moon gift box to the eldest princess. As expected, the eldest princess fell in love with her. Guessing Lin Yan's intention, the eldest princess directly told her and Xiao Wulang. The two got married under the orders of their superiors and had no feelings at all. Xiao Wulang, who had never been good at riding and archery in the past few years, suddenly wanted to go on a horseback trip. As a result, he fell off the cliff and has been unconscious ever since. He also ended up in the clear.Jing, because of this incident, the emperor also speculated that the eldest princess was instigating it. Lin Yan said that the eldest princess had always been upright and would never harm anyone secretly. The eldest princess found that Lin Yan knew her very well. By the way, she informed the candidate for the vacant position in the Ministry of War for the next year. She gave a pendant before leaving and allowed Lin Yan to enter and leave the eldest princess's residence freely in the future. She also sent someone to drive Lin Yan back to Jingzhao Mansion in her own sedan chair.

Shen Shaojie's comments at the poetry club continued to spread, and he gained more admiration. The ladies surrounded the restaurant every day, and it was impossible to open the door for business. Shen Jianshe accidentally saw Lin Yan being driven back to the house by the eldest princess in a sedan chair, so he hurriedly told his family, fearing that Lin Yan would change the future if he became the consort.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 14 plot introduction

The eldest princess accompanies Seventeenth Prince to study. The master of the school, Zhao Xunzhi, is already old. The eldest princess suggests that he should be replaced by the young and promising Lin Yan. After hearing this, King Zhao immediately spread the word, and King Zhao sent a letter to Lin Yan to meet.Lin Yan thought there was something important and rushed all the way to Prince Zhao's Mansion. Prince Zhao proposed that Lin Yan stay with the eldest princess as a close minister. Lin Yan thought it was inappropriate, and he belittled both the eldest princess and himself.

Lin Yan asked why he was suddenly concerned about his transfer to the central government. King Zhao said that the current Minister of War, Guo Pingxu, had a good relationship with him, so he asked him to inquire. It also showed that the emperor was moody and clearly arranged for Guo Pingxu. After a while, there were new favorites. Lin Yan remembered that the eldest princess had said that the current Minister of War was not arranged by the emperor, so he felt confused, but did not ask, and left early on the pretext of being busy with official duties.

Back at Jingzhao Mansion, Pei Pei was already waiting in the main hall. Lin Yan was about to ask what was going on when the eldest princess suddenly walked up to her and explained that she had a jar of good wine and invited Lin Yan and Pei Pei to drink together in the evening.Shen Jianshe happened to be passing by the door and heard it, so he pretended to be sick at the door to lure Lin Yan out. Pei Pei helped to hail the carriage. The eldest princess saw that the two of them had no intention of going to the appointment and left in disappointment.

Guixiang Restaurant Liu Feng took his friend Huan Erlang to Shen's restaurant for dinner. When ordering, Shen Shaoguang tied the menu to his dress. Huan Erlang ridiculed him for being frivolous. Shen Shaoguang retaliated rudely. After Huan Erlang left, Liu Feng said that he would never associate with him again. When Shen Shaoguang saw Liu Feng defending himself, they sat at the same table to discuss business methods.

Lin Yan went to the restaurant to deliver lunch boxes and felt a little unhappy when he saw Shen Shaoguang and Liu Feng chatting happily, so he left the lunch boxes at the door and went back home.Huan Erlang was severely scolded that night because he went to Yong'an City to join his uncle. Everyone knew that the Shen family and Lin Yan were distant relatives, and offending Mrs. Shen meant offending Lin Yan, so he was asked to apologize.

Although Huan Erlang was reluctant, he still came to apologize the next day and asked Shen Shaoguang to say a few kind words in front of Lin Yan.When Shen Shaoguang brought food to Lin Yan, he mentioned Huan Erlang's matter. Lin Yan thought of Shen Shaoguang's warm and natural conversation with Liu Feng, and felt jealous. He disliked using too much vinegar in cooking.

Pei Pei was asked at the Imperial Palace if Lin Yan was engaged, so he came to inquire. Lin Yan said that he and Shen Shaoguang had terminated their engagement. However, Pei Pei saw that Lin Yan seemed reluctant to let Shen Shaoguang go, so he suggested seizing the opportunity. While the two were talking, the servant of the princess's house came to invite him again. Lin Yan was about to find a reason to refuse, but Pei Pei spoke up first, saying that he was busy with official duties and could not go there.

The servant reported back to the eldest princess. The eldest princess invited Shen Shaoguang to come into the mansion to make some delicious food. She also sent someone to Jingzhao Mansion to inform him. Lin Yan heard that Shen Shaoguang was going and immediately ordered his horse to be prepared. Pei Pei was about to leave, but Lin Yan forcibly dragged him along.

During the dinner, the eldest princess saw that Lin Yan had a crush on Shen Shaoguang, so she gave them some advice. Shen Shaoguang hurriedly explained that he was of low status and was not worthy of Lin Yan. When talking about his background, the eldest princess asked how he was. Lin Yan hurriedly stood up and refused the kindness, indicating that there was already someone he fell in love with. The eldest princess couldn't help but smile. It turned out that Lin Yan had always thought that he was being favored, so he found reasons to refuse again and again.

Lin Yan also smiled bitterly, and the eldest princess suddenly turned her eyes to Pei Pei, explaining that she had seen Pei Pei for the first time since the Mid-Autumn Poetry Recital. He played the qin and recited like a sage living in seclusion, and it was unforgettable. She missed him every day. Pei Pei clearly saw her intentions, but always avoided them, so she had to treat Lin Yan to dinner and meet Pei Pei by the way.

The misunderstanding was solved, and Shen Shaoguang began to think about who Lin Yan was attracted to. The female ancestor of the Shen family had not yet appeared.After leaving the eldest princess's mansion, Shen Shaoguang couldn't help but laugh at Lin Yan's narcissism just now, and then asked Lin Yan again who he was attracted to. Lin Yan explained that it was just to reject the eldest princess' excuse.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 15 plot introduction

Lin Yan and Shen Shaoguang took a carriage back to Jingzhao Mansion together. Shen Shaoguang was already asleep. Lin Yan suddenly mentioned that he was not a bad drinker, but Shen Shaoguang didn't hear it at all.Arriving at the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, Lin Yan found that King Zhao was waiting in front of the gate. Shen Shaoguang showed his head, and Lin Yan hurriedly pulled him back to the sedan chair and drove him out.King Zhao stepped forward to speak, and Lin Yan held Shen Shaoguang in his arms to prevent him from showing up anymore, and asked if the emperor knew about his visit to Beijing this time. King Zhao said that he was an idle traveler, so there was no need to report specifically.Lin Yan whispered to Shen Shaoguang and told his family to stay away from the back door. Then he got off the sedan chair and invited King Zhao into the mansion. Shen Shaoguang had no chance to get off the sedan chair and could only worry.

King Zhao once again mentioned the matter of staying with the eldest princess as a close minister. Before Lin Yan could answer, he saw the Shen family making meat skewers in the yard. King Zhao asked why he had never mentioned it to him. Lin Yan explained that he had never taken the engagement to heart when he was a child. Unexpectedly, the Shen family suddenly came to join him half a year ago. King Zhao insisted on meeting the Shen family.Shen Jianshe did not know the identity of King Zhao, so he began to call him brother-in-law, showed off his talent as a chef, and taught King Zhao barbecue techniques.Liu Chang and Shen Shaoguang arrived shortly afterwards. Shen Shaoguang guessed that he had a prominent status, so he addressed him as his uncle.

Shen Jianshe and his son had a hearty drink with King Zhao. Lin Yan quietly told Shen Shaoguang the identity of King Zhao. Shen Shaoguang couldn't help but become nervous. Shen Jianshe had no idea and was still saying some words that King Zhao couldn't understand. King Zhao asked Lin Yan what had happened recently. Shen Jianshe was about to mention the curfew several times, but Shen Shaoguang hurriedly interrupted and changed the subject.

After the meal, Lin Yan served King Zhao a cup of sobering tea. King Zhao asked the Shen family if they knew what happened to the Cui family that year. Lin Yan said that his father had an accident in the capital, and the Shen family was far away in Qingyang and did not know about it.King Zhao no longer concealed anything and simply told what Lin Yan was planning. Lin Yan said that King Zhao was kind to him and therefore did not want him to be implicated again.King Zhao noticed that the Shen family spoke strangely and reminded them not to live in Jingzhao Mansion for a long time, otherwise they would easily be caught by someone with ulterior motives.After a conversation between the two, Lin Yan found that everything seemed to be expected by King Zhao from the moment he arrived in Beijing, but King Zhao still had no idea what his intentions were.

Shen Shaoguang told his family the identity of King Zhao. Shen Jianshe and Shen Shaojie were so frightened that they didn’t know what to do. Li Fengxia blamed Shen Jianshe for bragging when meeting people. Thanks to her daughter, she changed the subject so that the secret would not be revealed. Shen Shaoguang thought of his grandfather.It was once said that Lin Yan changed his name after being rescued by someone when he was young. It was speculated that the rescuer was King Zhao. However, Lin Yan's attitude towards King Zhao was very awkward, and the vassal king was not allowed to go to Beijing privately without special reasons. The relationship was unclear for a while.

Shen Jianshe and Li Fengxia sent invitations to King Zhao to eat at their own restaurants. After their relationship deepens, they may be able to give Lin Yan some help.Shen Shaoguang found out later and thought the decision was too hasty. He should at least discuss it with Lin Yan first. Before it was time to eat, Shen Jianshe asked Shen Shaoguang to inform Lin Yan first.Lin Yan had just left the court. Pei Fei explained that since getting along with Lin Yan, several brothers in the family had asked about Lin Yan's marriage situation. The two had just walked out of the palace, and a man from the Pei family was begging for A Yuan's affection. Seeing that the man was very old, Shen Shaoguang made some sarcastic remarks. The man began to provoke, and Lin Yan hurriedly stepped forward to help.

On the way back, Shen Shaoguang mentioned that his parents had invited King Zhao to dinner on their own initiative, and he was worried about causing trouble again. Lin Yan not only did not blame him, but was very grateful to the Shen family for thinking about him.Because it was inconvenient to enter the restaurant while wearing official clothes, Lin Yan changed into casual clothes in the sedan chair. Shen Shaoguang hurriedly turned his head outside the sedan chair.It was estimated that some time had passed. Shen Shaoguang thought that Lin Yan had changed his clothes, so he turned around to talk. He suddenly saw Lin Yan putting on a robe, with a few eye-catching abdominal muscles. Shen Shaoguang was surprised and realized that he was being disrespectful. After that, he asked what he should pay attention to when eating with King Zhao. After returning to the restaurant, he quickly got off the sedan chair.

During the dinner, the Shen family was grateful for Lin Yan's favor from King Zhao over the years. King Zhao said that he had already treated Lin Yan as his own son, but he could not stay in the capital for a long time, and he would inevitably be unable to do what he wanted.After the meal, King Zhao insisted on asking Shen Jianshe to take a walk with him.King Zhao explained that Lin Yan was now appreciated by the eldest princess and his future was limitless. However, if someone caught him in the past, his achievements would be in vain. Therefore, he hoped that the Shen family would move out of Jingzhao Mansion and promised to give the Shen family 10,000 taels of gold and reopen a restaurant in Sushui City.Shen Jianshe naturally could not resist the temptation and began to do ideological work for his family. However, Shen Shaoguang believed that his family was an ordinary common people and could not accept favors from King Zhao for no reason.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 16 plot introduction

Shen Jianshe was still not allowed to go back to Jingzhao Mansion to sleep, and said a lot of good things to Li Fengxia. Li Fengxia proposed that all the income from the restaurant would be hers in the future, and Shen Jianshe would be given ten dollars a month. Shen Jianshe had just tried the joy of spending a lot of money, so he naturally refused.

In the evening, Lin Yan was going to Shen Shaoguang's room to discuss what King Zhao had discussed with Shen Jianshe. Liu Chang informed Chengzhou that a family of 32 people had been killed tragically, so Lin Yan went there overnight.Shen Shaoguang tossed and turned and couldn't sleep. He guessed that King Zhao might have asked his family to go to Sushui City as hostages. He immediately took Ayuan and told Lin Yan that Lin Yan was not in the room. He didn't know until early the next morning that he had gone to Chengzhou overnight.

Shen Jianshe did not return to the hotel, but quietly went to Shen Shaojie's room to sleep all night. The next morning, Shen Shaojie was kicked out of bed as a bad guy. When he was complaining, he heard someone knocking on the door. King Zhao's confidants informed him that it was time to set off. King Zhao had left the night before and ordered him to take the Shen family there. Shen Jianshe also wanted to discuss it with his family again.After some consideration, and fearing that King Zhao would think that she was ignorant of the promotion, she prepared to go to Sushui City with Shen Shaojie to inquire about it first. When Li Fengxia saw the two people packing their luggage, she was worried that Shen Jianshe would be unobtrusive. Shen Shaojie was also describing the favorable conditions offered by King Zhao, so the three of them left a letter to Shen Shaoguang and got on King Zhao's carriage.When Shen Shaoguang came back from Jingzhao Mansion, he felt that the letter was too outrageous, so he asked A Yuan to guard the restaurant while he went to recover his family.

Lin Yan rushed to Chengzhou and learned that the so-called thirty-two were actually cattle. However, the Chengzhou governor explained that someone had sent him an anonymous letter a few days ago, telling him that he could seek help from Jingzhao Mansion for such matters.Shen Shaoguang caught up with Zhonggui's carriage in the suburbs and persuaded his family to go back with him. Shen Jianshe didn't agree at all. During the dispute, the carriage began to drive quickly and soon took the Shen family to Sushui City, and then the family was imprisoned.

Shen Shaoguang finally confirmed his guess, but it was too late. Li Xun, the third son of King Zhao, approached the cell where the Shen family was held with various torture instruments and forced him to tell everything he knew. Shen Shaojie stepped forward and explained that his ex-wife had cheated on him and that he was watching her move into another man's mansion. Shen Shaojie was so angry that he began to teach Shen Shaojie a lesson. Li Xun found out that the Shen family was teasing him, so he pulled out Shen Yangyang as a hostage.Shen Shaoguang recalled that Lin Yan had told him not to discuss official matters with King Zhao, so he agreed to tell him about Lin Yan's life experience. Li Xun was not surprised at all. He obviously knew it already. Shen Shaoguang also said that Lin Yan was trying to join the eldest princess's family to find shelter for himself.

Li Xun reported the results of the interrogation to King Zhao. When King Zhao heard that Lin Yan was clinging to the eldest princess, he knew that the Shen family had deceived Li Xun. Li Xun was not convinced. King Zhao seemed to always treat Lin Yan higher than himself.The Shen family starved in the cell for two days and became even more irritable when they saw the jailer eating and drinking. Shen Jianshe saw moss on the cell wall and found that the windows were made of wood as he looked up, so he did some research and tried to find out the flaws.

As soon as Lin Yan returned to Jingzhao Mansion, he heard that the Shen family had been taken away by King Zhao, and immediately stopped a horse and headed to Sushui City. King Zhao explained that everything he did was for Lin Yan, but Lin Yan would not listen at all. He must see the Shen family. King Zhao arranged for his men to lead the way, and then called Li Xun, asking to take the Shen family to a safe courtyard first.The housekeeper tried to sway Lin Yan with his years of nurturing kindness, but Lin Yan was not fooled. When the two rushed to the cell together, they found that the Shen family had escaped.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 17 plot introduction

The escape of the Shen family made King Zhao very angry, but he was also more sure of the importance of the Shen family to Lin Yan. Li Xun thought that instead of dealing with the Shen family, it would be better to kill Lin Yan directly to avoid the danger of raising tigers. King Zhao did not agree.

The Shen family ran for a long time and were very tired when they came to a small river, so they sat on the grass to rest. Li Fengxia dug some spicy grass and imagined using it to make various spicy dishes in the future. King Zhao's men suddenly came after them. Li Fengxia asked Shen Shaoguang to lead Shen Yangyang to run away first, while she stayed to deal with the situation.Shen Shaoguang ran into the woods, and was pursued by an officer and soldier. He hid Shen Yangyang in the grass and led the pursuers away in the other direction.

Shen Jianshe and his party were quickly captured by officers and soldiers. When they were about to behead, they were rescued by Lin Yan in time, and then they found Shen Yangyang in the woods together.Shen Shaoguang ran to a cliff. When he was desperate, Lin Yanjian stood behind the pursuers. Lin Yan was about to take Shen Shaoguang away. The officer and soldier suddenly fired a dart. The two of them accidentally fell down the cliff while avoiding. Lin Yan hurriedly grabbed Shen Shaoguang.

The two men were hanging on the cliff. The officer and the soldier still wanted to kill them all, so they threw another dart at Lin Yan's chest. Lin Yan's chest began to bleed. Shen Shaoguang was worried that Lin Yan could not hold on and complete his revenge plan, so he planned to fall off the cliff himself, leaving Lin Yan with a glimmer of hope of survival.Shen Shaojie ran to the cliff, hit the officers and soldiers on the back of the head with a stone, and then found a long stick to save Shen Shaoguang and Lin Yan.

The two landed ashore, and Lin Yan hugged Shen Shaoguang regardless of the dart still stuck in his body. The Shen family looked on in shock.Liu Chang quickly came to take over and took Lin Yan and the Shen family back to Yunshuiyuan.Shen Shaoguang boiled medicine for Lin Yan. When he saw that Lin Yan's chest was soaked with blood, he felt mixed emotions. Lin Yan actually risked his life to save himself. However, there was always a generational gap between the two. Shen Shaoguang did not dare to continue thinking about it and accidentally knocked over the case on the table. When Lin Yan was cleaning it up, he found that the case record was accurate word for word and had obviously been transcribed.

The next day, he brought Case Zong to Cao Rong and confirmed his suspicion. Unfortunately, Xiao Wulang was still unconscious and could not speak. Cao Rong mentioned that Xiao Wulang always liked case slips, so the events of that year must also be recorded on ruler slips.King Zhao wrote a letter from Sushui City, blaming the third son Li Ang for the pursuit of the Shen family. Lin Yan increasingly felt that there were many doubts about King Zhao. The emperor was old, and the official scandal had replaced almost all officials in the Ministry of War. Only King Zhao could benefit from it.Liu Chang proposed to send the Shen family away from Yunshuiyuan as soon as possible. Before Lin Yan had time to answer, the Shen family had already found him.

Li Fengxia explained that when her family was imprisoned, Li Ang went to the prison to interrogate Lin Yan. Shen Shaoguang was more clever and told the truth that Lin Yan was a descendant of the Cui family. She guessed that King Zhao should know. Later, in order to survive, he revealed that Lin Yan was clinging to the eldest princess.Yan did not blame, but rather blamed himself because his affairs involved the Shen family. Shen Jianshe proposed that the Shen family would become Lin Yan's family from now on, and would work together to reverse the case for the Cui family. Lin Yan suddenly felt the warmth of home, and Liu Chang was moved to tears on the side.

The Shen family decided to use their business break to help collect intelligence. Shen Shaojie mentioned the theft of the royal cat. Li Fengxia found out that Meng Pushe intended to marry her daughter to Lin Yan. Lin Yan and Shen Shaoguang looked at each other for a moment. Shen Shaoguang hurriedly asked not to interfere in Lin Yan's private life, but Lin Yan did not say whether he agreed.

Shen Shaoguang inquired about admission matters for Shen Yangyang. He heard that the best school in Yong'an was Hongwen School, and the teacher, Zhao Xunzhi, was once a student of the Cui family.After the exchange meeting, Shen Shaoguang went to the market with A Yuan, thinking that he was a woman in the book. When they mentioned Lin Yan's rescue at the risk of his life, A Yuan immediately said that there must be friendship between men and women. Shen Shaoguang quickly denied that he could never fall in love with the ancestor of the Shen family.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 18 plot introduction

In order to eliminate the unwanted thoughts, Shen Shaoguang went to Xingjiao Temple and asked to become a monk. Seeing that Shen Shaoguang was trapped by love, the master asked Shen Shaoguang to eat together. A lady named Jing Wen happened to come to the temple to deliver food and proposed to participate in the God of Cooking competition the next year. Shen Shaoguang remembered that Aye also had plans. After the meal, Jing Wen ordered his carriage to take Shen Shaoguang back to the restaurant.

Shen Shaoguang made sure to stay with Jingwen for dinner. Shen Jianshe developed a new cuisine and asked Lin Yan to taste it together. When Lin Yan saw Jingwen, it was revealed that it was Shen Jingwen, Meng Pushe's niece. The Shen family heard that the same surname was Shen, and they immediately understood that Shen Jingwen was Lin Yan's future wife, so they stood in a row and toasted to the two of them, but a trace of disappointment flashed in Shen Shaoguang's eyes.

Shen Family Restaurant is launching winter hot pot, which tastes similar to Guixiang Restaurant's Charcoal Hot Pot, but its cheaper price has attracted many diners.The eldest princess found out that Pei Fei was not taking a bath that day, so she ordered hot pot from Shen's restaurant and tasted it with Pei Fei. Pei Fei took the opportunity to explain that she only wanted to build a career and had no interest in the love affair between her children. The eldest princess pretended to be sad and got up and left. Pei Fei chased her to the door to explain. The eldest princess finally proposed that we should be normal friends from now on, and Pei Fei had to agree.

Liu Feng went to Shen's restaurant for dinner and was curious when he saw spicy grass used as a spice. Shen Shaoguang believed that new cuisines that had just been withdrawn were more attractive to diners. Over time, Guixiang Restaurant could also introduce new ones, so that it could maintain the prosperity of Juxian Lane forever. Business can never be dominated by one family. Liu Feng admired Shen Shaoguang's views. Shen Shaoguang asked Liu Feng to arrange for the chef of Guixiang Restaurant to help make a pot, and at the same time, he gave the craftsmanship of shrimp slippery as a reward.

Lin Yan asked someone to pay attention, but did not find Xiao Wulang's ruler, so he had to look for another opportunity.I passed by Shen's restaurant during the break to deliver meal boxes, and Shen Jingwen happened to be there, so Li Fengxia left the two of them to eat together.Shen Shaoguang and Liu Feng studied new cuisine together. When they arrived at Shen's restaurant, they saw Lin Yan and Shen Jingwen eating together, so they had to sit at another table. During this period, Shen Shaoguang glanced at Lin Yan from time to time, and his heart was filled with jealousy. Even the radish and mutton pot had a sour taste.

Liu Feng saw that Shen Shaoguang was very business-minded, so he proposed to buy another shop and open a restaurant. Shen Shaoguang also agreed, saying that he would be responsible for the operation, and Liu Feng would enjoy the dividends from his investment.In the evening, Liu Feng explained his idea to his elder Liu Weng. Liu Weng also agreed, but found that Liu Feng had other thoughts about Shen Shaoguang other than business.

The next day, Liu Weng ordered wedding cakes and went to the Shen family restaurant to propose marriage. The Shen family was shocked. Although the Liu family was one of the richest families in Yongan, marriage was not a trivial matter after all. Li Fengxia said that the family should discuss it first.

Lin Yan met the eldest princess. The eldest princess was trapped in love and had no interest in any trivial matters. Lin Yan ordered Liu Chang to buy some food at Shen's restaurant. The eldest princess asked Lin Yan to find a way to persuade Pei Fei. Lin Yan thought that the eldest princess had been married after all. Pei Fei could not care at all, but if Xiao Wulang's previous love token could be disposed of, orXu made the other party feel more comfortable. The eldest princess said that she never had a token of love and only kept some slips of paper for daily handling of cases. Lin Yan offered to keep it for herself. After the two discussed, Liu Chang came back and reported that he could not customize the food. Because the Liu family went to Shen's restaurant to propose marriage, the restaurant was closed. Lin Yan heard that he hurriedly said goodbye to the eldest princess.

In the Shen family restaurant, Liu Weng was still waiting for a reply. When Shen Shaoguang was hesitating, Lin Yan suddenly ran over. Shen Shaoguang thought that he should immediately cut off any unwanted thoughts and accepted the wedding cake. Lin Yan left the restaurant in despair and walked alone on the street for a long time. He did not even notice that he was being followed by the eldest princess.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 19 plot introduction

Lin Yan was absentmindedly making ruler tablets in the center of the mansion. Liu Chang had already seen his master's thoughts and persuaded him to express his feelings to Shen Shaoguang in time before it was too late.Liu Feng found Shen Shaoguang in person and apologized for Liu Weng's sudden visit, but still hoped that Shen Shaoguang would seriously consider it. Shen Shaoguang remembered that his ex-boyfriend said the same thing in college and finally parted ways, so he directly stated that the two were not in the same family and therefore could not agree.He was about to go back to the room to get the wedding cake and return it to Liu Feng. When he turned around, he found that Liu Chang had already helped prepare it, and Lin Yan was standing next to him.

Liu Chang sent Liu Feng away from Yunshui Garden. Lin Yan pretended to be passing by unintentionally. Seeing frostbite on Shen Shaoguang's hands, he stepped forward to ask the reason. Shen Shaoguang explained that it was caused by the cold weather. When he was in his hometown in the future, he had a dishwasher at home. He had longed for it since he was a child and used a lot of savings to buy it when he grew up. He then drew on the paper.Showing a model of a dishwasher, Lin Yan explained that things that were not available when he was a child will lead to deep obsessions when he grows up. However, Shen Shaoguang once gained and experienced loss, which made him feel even sadder. Shen Shaoguang discovered that Lin Yan understood what he was thinking and risked his life to save her on the cliff. He did not dare to continue thinking about it, so as not to have unwanted thoughts.Lin Yan returned to the room and realized that he liked Shen Shaoguang, and decided to express his feelings to Shen Shaoguang after the Cui family reversed the case.

The next day, Lin Yan specially brought Shen's hot pot to Pei Fei's house for dinner. He also asked for help and asked Pei Fei to go to the eldest princess's appointment to help ask some questions. Although Pei Fei was reluctant, since the two met, he discovered that Lin Yan did have many secrets. He didn't want to ask too much. Since Lin Yan needed help, as a friend, he was willing to try his best.

The eldest princess invited again, and Pei Fei readily agreed. They played chess together, and agreed that the winner of each game could ask the loser a question. In the first few games, Pei Fei deliberately lost, and the eldest princess asked about Pei Fei's likes and dislikes. After that, Pei Fei wonChess also asked about the matter that made the eldest princess sad. The eldest princess said that she would marry Xiao Wulang on the order of her brother. In the evening, Pei Fei stayed to have dinner together. The eldest princess was in a happy mood. The next day, she took Lin Yan to open the room where Xiao Wulang's tablets were stored.

The room had been dusty for a long time and was filled with thick dust. The eldest princess opened a cabinet and found that the box inside had been opened. Lin Yan picked up the box and saw that the fingerprint mark on the lid was very clear, indicating that the ruler had just been stolen not long ago. The princess mansion was always heavily guarded. Lin Yan thought that there was a thief, but the eldest princess thought that the consort suddenly woke up and hurried to Xiao Wulang's room in fright.

Xiao Wulang was still in a coma, and the eldest princess finally breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Yan followed closely behind and suggested temporarily sealing off the princess's mansion to find out the thief. The eldest princess heard that the Shen family had launched a new hot pot and wanted to taste it, so she asked Lin Yan to help invite Shen Shaoguang to make it in the mansion.Shen Shaoguang made a hot pot and made syrup to dip into the candied haws. The eldest princess was full of praise. Lin Yan came to report that the culprit was basically a man, more than six feet tall, but there were about a dozen men over six feet tall in the house. Shen Shaoguang heard from the sidelines, and they checked the fingerprints on the wooden box together. He also used the brewed syrup to make a fingerprint model, and then asked each servant to press their fingerprints on the grounds that the prince was visiting and would reward each person with a string of copper coins.

Realizing that a flaw had been discovered, the internal agent received the reward and rushed directly to Sushui City. King Zhao found that the ruler slips had been swapped. It turned out that Lin Yan had paid the internal agent by giving him a small amount of money. Liu Chang searched the rooms one by one and found Xiao Wulang's handwriting. King Zhao also concluded that Lin Yan had discovered the secret.Lin Yan checked each of the rulers one by one, and sure enough, it was mentioned that there was something behind the official case. Another ruler recorded that Erlang Zhao was involved in the case. Lin Yan remembered that Erlang Zhao was Zhao Xunzhi.

Lin Yan made a dishwasher for Shen Shaoguang. The area was relatively large. After the water source was connected, it was powered by a hand-operated bellows, and it was able to clean dishes. Shen Shaoguang saw scratches on Lin Yan's hands and guessed that they were accidentally scratched while making the dishwasher. Lin Yan still refused to admit it. Shen Shaoguang showed concern in his eyes. Lin Yan asked Shen Shaoguang if he cared about him, but Shen Shaoguang hurriedly denied it.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 20 plot introduction

Shen Shaoguang set up a stall at the door of the restaurant and sold a few bunches of candied haws. Lin Yan felt very strange when he saw it, just like the Shen family talking, as if they were not from the same dynasty. However, Lin Yan expressed that he liked it very much and hoped to maintain a close relationship with the Shen family. Shen Shaoguang did not dare to stay with Lin Yan for too long, so he had to find an excuse to go back to the restaurant to get busy. When he turned around, Lin Yan pulled Shen Shaoguang's arm, and Shen Shaoguang hurriedly broke away.

The Shen family helped Shen Yangyang choose a school, but they were not satisfied after comparing several schools. Shen Yangyang had more ideas and wanted to enter Hongwen Hall. However, Hongwen Hall was a place where the children of princes and nobles studied. It was difficult for the Shen family to get in. Moreover, Hongwen Hall had always only accepted men, so there was almost no hope.

Shen Jianshe realized that he had been a little distracted recently and rushed to Sushui City on his own initiative, causing the family to almost lose their lives, so he took the initiative to admit his mistakes to Li Fengxia. Li Fengxia said that it was a good thing to know the mistakes and be able to correct them. Moreover, Shen Jianshe had played a role in several important moments, so she agreed to move back home.

Shen Shaoguang introduced the dishwasher to Shen Shaojie. Shen Shaojie felt that Lin Yan favored Shen Shaoguang too much. They were obviously of the same generation and he did not receive any special care. Several ladies chatted with Shen Shaojie and were curious when they saw the dishwasher. By the way, they inquired about Shen Shaoguang's breakup with Liu Feng and asked what kind of husband she wanted. Shen Shaoguang described Lin Yan's appearance, and Lin Yan happened to be passing by on duty.

In the evening, Shen Shaoguang sat alone in the courtyard to let go of his lovesickness, muttering to himself whether he really liked Lin Yan. When the rest of the Shen family heard this, he was so ashamed that he jumped into the lake. The Shen family hurriedly rescued him, but fortunately his life was not in danger.

Liu Chang was sure that Zhao Erlang was Zhao Xunzhi, and Lin Yan was going to investigate why Zhao Xunzhi changed his confession and slandered his close friend, so that Liu Chang could find an opportunity to get close to him.Liu Chang also told Shen Shaoguang that he had just fallen into the water in the courtyard. Lin Yan became anxious after hearing this and broke into Shen Shaoguang's room before he could put on his coat.

Seeing Lin Yan's worried eyes and suddenly entering the door wearing underwear, the Shen family guessed what Lin Yan was thinking about Shen Shaoguang. Lin Yan left after seeing that Shen Shaoguang was fine, leaving the Shen family embarrassed and speechless.

Shen Jianshe was worried that Lin Yan really liked Shen Shaoguang and would change history, so the family would no longer exist, so he asked Shen Shaoguang if there was any misunderstanding with Lin Yan. Shen Shaoguang said that Lin Yan had less contact with women, and since he was a modern person, he had many behaviors that were different from those of the past. Lin Yan might have crossed the line.In any case, Shen Jianshe decided to move out of Yunshuiyuan immediately. As long as the two no longer meet, the future will not change.

Shen Shaojie was responsible for looking for a house and found that Yaren looked like his ex-wife Xiaomei. For a moment, he thought that Xiaomei had also experienced time travel and pestered Yaren to chatter endlessly. After being punched by the other party, he came to his senses and confirmed that the person in front of him was not his ex-wife. It was just because they looked too similar that he recognized the wrong person. The misunderstanding was resolved. Yaren no longer blamed, but was moved by Shen Shaojie's affection.

Li Fengxia explained to Lin Yan that she was planning to move away from Yunshuiyuan. Lin Yan thought she was worried about the persecution of King Zhao. Li Fengxia directly told Lin Yan that she was afraid that Lin Yan would get entangled with her daughter. Lin Yan thought that the two were of similar age and did not understand why the Shen family did not accept her.Finding Shen Shaoguang and confronting him, Shen Shaoguang first pretended to be casual among friends. Lin Yan saw that Shen Shaoguang was doing this deliberately, so he asked why he was avoiding him. Shen Shaoguang couldn't explain clearly, so he had to vent his anger and explain that he was just bored. Lin Yan was greatly disappointed and apologized in person, saying that he would never bother him again.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 21 plot introduction

The Shen family followed Shen Shaojie to the new house and found that the house had not yet been built. Shen Jianshe and his wife regretted leaving such an important matter to Shen Shaojie. The rent was defrauded by Mrs. Du, a dentist. Shen Shaojie also spoke for the other party. Li Fengxia was very angry and reported the case to Jingzhao Mansion.Liu Feng helped find out Madam Du's home address and rushed to the door to find that Jingzhao Mansion was affixing a seal. Cheng Hu informed Madam Du that she had been taken to Jingzhao Mansion.

When the Shen family saw Mrs. Du, they immediately understood the reason why Shen Shaojie was deceived. Mrs. Du looked exactly like Xiaomei.Shen Shaojie also interceded for Mrs. Du, explaining that she had no choice but to cheat money because her family was poor. Lin Yan explained that it was common for Mrs. Du to cheat. She had already bought three houses by driving up prices. She would not be able to escape jail this time.

Mrs. Du was so frightened that she knelt down in front of Shen Shaojie and begged for forgiveness. The Shen family couldn't bear that Mrs. Du, who was similar to her family members, was imprisoned, so they all begged for mercy.After the reconciliation was completed, Lin Yan arranged for Liu Chang to send the Shen family back to Yunshuiyuan first. Li Fengxia suggested that Liu Feng should take him back to the restaurant. After hearing this, Lin Yan slapped Liu Feng's shoulder hard as if he was giving instructions, but Liu Feng could see Lin Yan's affection for the Shen family.After returning home to have a meal with Liu Weng, Liu Weng regretted that his grandson missed the beauty, but Liu Feng believed that they could still be friends if they couldn't be husband and wife, and doing business with Shen Shaoguang, it would be a dream to be able to climb up to Lin Yan in the future.

When Shen Shaojie saw Mrs. Du again, he felt mixed emotions. He locked himself in the room without seeing anyone. It was the first time that Shen Shaojie and his wife saw their son so serious, and they didn't know how to comfort her.Cao Rong investigated the servants who stole the rulers. They were soldiers who had been registered as dead five years ago, and the Ministry of War found many similar situations. Some people disappeared after being persuaded by Zhao Xunzhi. Cao Rong could not guess who was behind it. Lin Yan told him that it was King Zhao who did it. After hearing this, Cao Rong immediately wanted to report to the emperor, but Lin Yan stopped him with the overall situation in mind.

Shen Jingwen went to the restaurant to talk to Shen Shaoguang about his concerns. His grandfather liked Lin Yan very much, and he was already too old, so he planned to marry Lin Yan. Shen Shaoguang was shocked, but tried to keep a calm look on his face, indicating that Lin Yan was worthy of his trust and hoped that Shen Jingwen would treat Lin Yan well.

Shen Yangyang was doing nothing at home all day long, and she wanted to get into Hongwen Hall. Shen Jianshe was also helpless. In the past, his family was too poor to afford a house in a high-quality school district, but now he still can't get into the ideal school despite making a lot of money.When Shen Shaojie heard the conversation between his parents and his daughter, he went to the Hongwen Hall alone to plead with Zhao Xunzhi. Zhao Xunzhi disagreed, and Shen Shaojie kept pestering him, pretending to be a cow and a horse, which made Zhao Xunzhi dumbfounded. Shen Shaojie even sneaked into Zhao Xunzhi's room in advance at night to help warm the bed. Zhao Xunzhi lost his temper and was forced to agree to Shen Yangyang's disguise as a man and go to the Hongwen Hall to study.

The Shen family was very excited when they were notified that they could enter Hongwen Hall. They didn't know who could help to plead for mercy. After learning what Shen Shaojie had done, they all looked at Shen Shaojie in a new light.Returning to the restaurant to look for Shen Shaojie, he only found a letter left. Shen Shaojie suddenly realized that he was in his thirties, so he decided to go out and have a try. He hoped that Shen Yangyang would study well in Hongwen Hall. After a while, the two met at the summit. Shen Jianshe was very worried about Shen Shaojie's ability, but he did not dare to say much in order to take care of Shen Yangyang's emotions.

Lin Yan asked Pei Fei to get close to Zhao Xunzhi, but Zhao Xunzhi avoided seeing him. Lin Yan guessed that King Zhao had given the order in advance, and when discussing countermeasures with Liu Changzheng, he saw Shen Yangyang waiting in the room in advance. Shen Yangyang came to report the good news, but when he heard that he was approaching Zhao Xunzhi, he became more interested and explained that he could also contribute. Lin Yan did not agree with the children's mischief, so he took Shen Yangyang to the restaurant to explain the situation.Shen Shaoguang guessed that Lin Yan was instigating, so he called Lin Yan aside to confront him alone. Lin Yan explained that he deliberately told Shen Yangyang because he was worried about Shen Yangyang. Shen Yangyang then ran into the yard and explained that she was not ordered by Lin Yan.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 22 plot introduction

Shen Jianshe sent Shen Yangyang to school. On the way, Shen Yangyang mentioned that everyone in the family had changed since time travel, except for Li Fengxia, who was still the same. Shen Jianshe guessed that Li Fengxia always lost her temper because of this. After sending Shen Yangyang off, he ordered a luxury carriage and gave the key to Li Fengxia, explaining that he could provide the best life. She hoped that Li Fengxia would not always lose her temper with her in the future. Li Fengxia saw that Shen Jianshe didn't understand her at all, so she turned around and left in anger.

In the Hong Wen Guan class, Master Zhao was talking about the theory that the sky is square and the earth is round. Shen Yangyang openly pointed out that the sky and the earth are both spherical, and there is no such thing as a square. All the students started talking about it.After school, Zhao Xunzhi invited Shen Shaoguang to Hongwen Hall. Shen Shaoguang thought that Shen Yangyang would get into trouble on the first day of school. Unexpectedly, Zhao Xunzhi explained that Shen Yangyang was extremely talented and if he cultivated it well, it would be limitless in the future. However, he was too direct and could easily attract unnecessary trouble.Trouble, Shen Shaoguang and Shen Yangyang breathed a sigh of relief. Shen Shaoguang discovered that Zhao Xunzhi was not just a scholar, but a person who was far better than him, so he asked to have dinner in his restaurant. Since the restaurant was under expansion and was not open, Zhao Xunzhi agreed.

Lin Yan heard that Shen Shaoguang invited Zhao Xunzhi, and blamed him for taking too much risk, and that he could not afford to repay the kindness. Shen Shaoguang explained that Lin Yan had come forward for the Shen family time and time again, and there was no way to repay him, so repayment should not be the purpose, and he hoped that Lin Yan would seize the opportunity.

Zhao Xunzhi went to the Shen family restaurant for dinner, and the Shen family members took turns to toast. When Zhao Xunzhi was about to get drunk, Lin Yan walked to the table. For a moment, Zhao Xunzhi looked like Cui Rangzhi. Lin Yan pretended not to know who he was and asked Zhao Xunzhi about Li Ji Dian.Therefore, Zhao Xunzhi explained that Li's consignment friend was seeking glory, and because he insinuated himself, he asked Lin Yan's true identity. Lin Yan replied that he was just the governor of Jingzhao. However, after seeing the previous unjust case, he decided to re-investigate, and asked Zhao Xunzhi whether he had done it originally or was instigated by others.

King Zhao offered incense to his deceased eldest son Li Sheng, indicating that Lin Yan's investigation speed was beyond his imagination. The two men were equally capable and both were very good, but I am afraid that Lin Yan can no longer be kept.Li Xun informed Lin Yan that he had begun investigating Zhao Xunzhi. King Zhao believed that Zhao Xunzhi cared most about his reputation, so he would not tell the truth, but Li Xun thought that might not be the case.

Lin Yan had already persuaded Zhao Xunzhi to come forward as a witness, but suddenly learned that Zhao Xunzhi had returned to his hometown Dingyou. Knowing that it was King Zhao who did it, Lin Yan still ordered Liu Chang to go to Zhao Xunzhi's hometown to see the person alive and the body after death.Shen Shaoguang delivered a meal to Lin Yan. He hesitated for a long time and was embarrassed to enter. It was not until Lin Yan heard the noise at the door and opened the door that he discovered that Li Fengxia had prepared a meal for Lin Yan in advance.Liu Chang came back from a trip to Nanming to report that Zhao Xunzhi had no relatives in his hometown. It was a shame that King Zhao sent a letter all night to congratulate Shen Yangyang for enrolling in Hongwen Hall, praised Zhao Xunzhi as a person, and pretended not to know anything about it. Lin Yan hated King Zhao to the bone. Seeing that Lin Yan couldn't resolve it, Shen Shaoguang took the lead and threw the cases and precious porcelain bottles in the room. Lin Yan followed suit and vented his frustration.

After venting, Shen Shaoguang believed that Lin Yan would come up with a new idea soon. New Year's Eve was approaching, and Shen Yangyang invited Lin Yan to spend time together in a restaurant. He also explained that Shen Shaoguang had specially prepared new clothes for Lin Yan, and Lin Yan readily agreed.Shen Shaoguang began to prepare the ingredients, and his mind was filled with the shadow of Lin Yan. He even wrote Lin Yan's name on the menu, so he tore off the menu and threw it into the pickled cabbage jar, forcibly erasing the memory he shouldn't have.

The Shen family called Lin Yan to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner together. Five days had passed since Shen Shaoguang went to the countryside to purchase goods. When Lin Yan was worried, Shen Shaoguang suddenly walked in and brought back Qingyang's unique water shield. Shen Shaoguang specifically emphasized that it was just a drop-in, but everyone knew what he was thinking.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 23 plot introduction

The Shen family sat together to celebrate New Year's Eve. After Shen Yangyang ate dumplings filled with copper coins, he asked his elders for New Year's money one by one. The Shen family had prepared in advance. Lin Yan didn't know about this custom and directly gave all the broken silver in his wallet.When the eldest princess found out that Pei Fei had no plans to return to her hometown, she put aside the excitement in the palace and invited Pei Fei to play chess at her house. She also proposed to enjoy the lanterns together in the evening.

Shen Shaojie sent a letter to his family, stating that he was already halfway to the summit. In fact, since leaving home, Shen Shaojie has tried to give talk shows to rural people, perform acrobatics, and compete with strong men in martial arts, but none of them have been successful. He ended up living on the streets a few years ago, begging for a copper coin to send home as a lucky gift for his daughter.

After the meal, Shen Jianshe and his wife took Shen Yangyang out to enjoy the lanterns. The eldest princess Pei Fei came to the Shen family restaurant and asked to try hot pot. Shen Shaoguang was not satisfied with her request, so she and Lin Yan entertained the eldest princess. During the dinner, Shen Shaoguang was afraid that Lin Yan would get drunk, so he kept standing aside.After warning, Pei Fei explained that Lin Yan's drinking capacity was much better than that of ordinary people. A few days ago, Uncle Huan Erlang invited him to his house for a drink. Lin Yan drank all the precious Jiannan Shaojiu. Shen Shaoguang realized that Lin Yan had lied to him about not being able to drink, and he remembered everything that had happened.The eldest princess found that the relationship between the two was unusual, but Pei Fei only focused on eating.

Because she ate the unique frozen tofu, the eldest princess went to the backyard to watch the production process after the meal, and also asked to visit the newly expanded warehouse. Shen Shaoguang and Lin Yan opened the warehouse and entered first, but the eldest princess directly grabbed Pei Fei who was about to enter, and closed the door and locked it.Shen Shaoguang was about to pry open the door, but Lin Yan said that the eldest princess had always been playful, and she would lose face by going out directly, so the two sat down in the warehouse. Lin Yan saw that there were a lot of water shields stored in the basin, and asked how the Shen family eats water shields. Shen Shaoguang casually said that he did not eat water shields at home, and only kept them so that Lin Yan could feel the warmth of home.

Sitting awkwardly, Shen Shaoguang stood up and opened the window to watch the lanterns fly into the sky. When he was about to call Lin Yan, he found that he was already standing behind him. The two of them were close to each other for an instant, and Lin Yan started to kiss Shen Shaoguang. Shen Shaoguang realized that he could not continue, and began to strangle his wrist with a red rope.The eldest princess Pei Fei tried to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two, and then sat in the courtyard to admire the moon. The eldest princess once again expressed her feelings, but Pei Fei did not dare to accept it, saying that she had nothing to give. Seeing that Pei Fei did not understand the charm, the eldest princess turned and left angrily.

Lin Yan saw the marks on Shen Shaoguang's wrist and a clay pot filled with notes with his name on it. He was sure that Shen Shaoguang also had feelings for him, but he didn't understand why he always showed resistance on purpose.Shen Shaoguang explained that he and Lin Yan had no engagement at all. He was only afraid of being killed so he lied deliberately. Later, in order to seek asylum in Yunshuiyuan, he had to continue the lie. He also confirmed that he had no feelings for Lin Yan at all. Lin Yan didn't know what to say.

The next day, Shen's restaurant reopened and grandly launched a small spring plate with a variety of fresh vegetables. Someone asked Shen Shaoguang how to buy fresh vegetables. Shen Shaoguang told the greenhouse culture, but the other party had no idea. Several diners praised Lin Yan for caring about the people and being resolute, but Shen Shaoguang pretended not to hear.Cheng Hu took his colleagues to the Shen family restaurant for dinner. The other party complained that Jingzhao Mansion had not rested since the Lantern Festival, but Cheng Hu thought Lin Yan's actions were commendable.When Lin Yan walked into the Shen family's courtyard at the end of the day, some people immediately complained about the encroachment on their fields. Lin Yan said that they would handle it properly. Hearing Cheng Hu and his colleagues talking about Shen Shaoguang, Lin Yan immediately interrupted.

In the evening, Liu Chang came back from an outing and informed that Mrs. Zheng, who had been engaged to Lin Yan, now lives in Shi'an County and had moved out of Qingyang. Therefore, it was determined that the Shen family had deceived Lin Yan, but Lin Yan was thinking about the agreement with Shen Shaoguang to watch the Lantern Festival together.Shen Shaoguang couldn't sleep at night and ran to the kitchen to prepare ingredients for the next day. Li Fengxia got up at night and approached to ask. She saw the marks on Shen Shaoguang's wrists. Li Fengxia felt heartbroken and advised Shen Shaoguang not to harm himself again.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 24 plot introduction

The Shen family restaurant reopened, and Lu Yun from Yunlai Restaurant came to congratulate him, but it was not out of sincerity at all, and Shen Shaoguang did not entertain her well. Lu Yun heard that Meng Pushe's niece had been betrothed to Lin Yan, so Shen Shaoguang must have lost his backer and would not be glamorous for a few days.Lin Yan and Liu Chang came to Shi'an County again and went directly to Mrs. Zheng's home to learn about the situation on the pretext of exploring the magistrate's mansion in Shi'an County. Mrs. Zheng was very enthusiastic and took out water shield cakes to greet the two of them. Lin Yan thought that Mrs. Zheng had brought them from Qingyang, but the other party explained that Mrs. Shen passed by here a few days ago and stayed there specially.

Only then did Lin Yan know that Shen Shaoguang had gone to see Madam Zheng, and had gone through hardships to dig up water shields, and asked about the Cui family. Madam Zheng initially stated that she had no knowledge, but seeing that Lin Yan and Liu Chang were easy-going and an official of the Jingzhao Mansion who wanted to overturn the case for the Cui family, she told the truth.She had been engaged to the Cui family for a long time, but the matter was not settled because the Cui family was wiped out by the court officials. Mrs. Zheng believed in Cui Rangzhi's character, so she guessed that someone must have framed her.Another thing is that around September last year, Li Ang, the fourth son of King Zhao, went to Shi'an County to inquire about him. His husband, Mingfu, found an excuse to stop him and started a private investigation. It was discovered that King Zhao and Concubine Dou had a secret relationship of interest.

On the way back to Jingzhao Mansion, he passed by the Shen family restaurant. Shen Jianshe saw Lin Yan's carriage suddenly stopped and insisted on inviting Lin Yan to sit in the restaurant. Lin Yan didn't get out of the car. A Yuan prepared food and handed it to Lin Yan's sedan window by Shen Shaoguang. Lin Yan felt distressed when he saw the marks on Shen Shaoguang's arm, and remembered that the Shen family had deceived him, so he didn't want to stay for a moment longer.Meng Pushe visited Jingzhao Mansion to discuss the marriage between Lin Yan and Shen Jingwen. Lin Yan explained that he could not marry Shen Jingwen according to the laws of the day, but Meng Pushe found that his niece liked Lin Yan very much, so it should not be difficult for him to ask the emperor for a special favor.

When Shen Jingwen learned that Lin Yan did not refuse or clearly agreed, he went to the door in person. When he saw the ruler on Lin Yan's table with Shen Shaoguang's name engraved on it, he already guessed it, indicating that he would never force others to do anything. However, his grandfather was in high spirits and did not want to be hit by it, so he asked Lin Yan to help conceal it first.In the evening, Lin Yan accidentally saw the ruler and did not want to continue to be entangled with Shen Shaoguang, so he threw the ruler into the trash can. At the same time, Shen Shaoguang also wanted to start over, so he took off the red string from his wrist and threw it away.

The next day, the Shen family couldn't find Shen Yangyang anywhere, so they went to Jingzhao Mansion to report to the official. Liu Chang informed Shen Yangyang that he had gone to Jingzhao Mansion early in the morning to ask for advice. Lin Yan specially informed the Shen family himself and bumped into him just as he was about to go out.Several members of the Shen family met Lin Yan together. Liu Chang took Shen Yangyang to the backyard to eat walnuts. Lin Yan had already called the Shen family foreigners, and they suddenly became very unfamiliar. Shen Shaoguang apologized again and said that he would not cause trouble to Lin Yan from now on.

Shen Jianshe found that the relationship with Li Fengxia had always been awkward. Li Fengxia never wore the ring he bought, so he deliberately went to the kitchen to do some work and accidentally cut his finger while peeling a radish. He thought Li Fengxia would feel distressed, but Li Fengxia explained that she had cut her finger countless times over the years while preparing food, and she had never mentioned it to Shen Jianshe.

Shen Jianshe still couldn't get forgiveness from Li Fengxia, so he went to Ruyuexuan to drink to relieve his sorrow.Shen Shaoguang began to deliver meals. After packing them with Ah Yuan, Li Fengxia found that their clothes were stained with sauce, so she went out to deliver the meals. They happened to arrive at the flower-filled wing of Ruyue Xuan. The two girls were going to accompany Shen Jianshe to have fun. Shen Jianshe hurriedly declined. Li Fengxia happened to open the door and bumped into them, so she threw out some copper coins and asked the two girls to prepare pens and papers for themselves.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 25 plot introduction

Li Fengxia asked Shen Jianshe to sit at the table and asked if he still remembered how long they had been married. Shen Jianshe couldn't tell at once. Li Fengxia began to recount the difficulties after marriage. It turned out that Shen Jianshe could not make any money, and she had to work endlessly, so she became grumpy. After traveling to Yong'an, the Shen family made money, and Shen Jianshe began to claim credit, but could not see Li Fengxia's efforts at all. Too much disappointment accumulated, Li Fengxia threw down a divorce note and left Ruyue Xuan.

Liu Chang reported to Lin Yan that according to the clues provided by Madam Zheng, Shilang Cao captured a group of Dou family members. Lin Yan imprisoned the captured Dou Shiba in a water prison. Dou Shiba refused to say anything. Lin Yan dyed wood with paint to pretend to be the heads of Dou Shiba's brothers, wrapped it in a cloth bag and threw it in front of Dou Shiba, who quickly confessed.After the confession was handed over to Lin Yan, the Dou family continued to collect money, and then gave it to King Zhao to feed the deregistered soldiers to fill their wings.

Dou Shiba was responsible for transporting salt, grain and grass, and there was also a connector in the middle. However, he had never met and was only stored in a fixed place waiting for the other party to pick it up. However, Dou Shiba had secretly followed the connector and found that he was doing business in Juxian Lane.Lin Yan went to Juxian Lane to remind Shen Shaoguang to pay attention to safety. Shen Shaoguang thanked Lin Yan for his kind reminder, ran to the restaurant and took out a box of packed meals and offered to deliver them to Lin Yan in the future. Lin Yan rejected Shen Shaoguang's kindness.

Shen Yangyang suddenly missed Shen Shaojie very much. She happened to receive a letter from Shen Shaojie that day, explaining that she had discovered over the past six months that she had dabbled in acting, business franchises, calligraphy and other fields. In fact, Shen Shaojie had indeed tried, but failed in everything and had been reduced to begging on the streets.The Shen family restaurant was recruiting chefs. A man named Yu Sanlang came to reveal the list and made a peacock spread which was unanimously approved by the Shen family. Then many people came to admire it. Pei Fei also came to taste it. Shen Shaoguang showed his kindness and askedWhy didn't he accept the eldest princess's wishes? Pei Fei explained that the difference between himself and the eldest princess Yunni was just like Shen Shaoguang and Lin Yan. Suddenly, he remembered that Meng Xiang told everyone in court that his niece was about to marry Lin Yan. Shen Shaoguang suddenly felt lost.

After Yu Sanlang went to work in the kitchen, Li Fengxia was finally able to free up her hands and began to go shopping constantly. She bought a lot of items every time. She even fell down on the street because she couldn't move and was so happy that Shen Jianshe could only follow her secretly every time. She didn't understand why Li Fengxia was happy.Shen Shaoguang noticed the strangeness of his parents, and happened to see Shen Jianshe going out again, so he stopped them and asked what they were busy with every day. Shen Jianshe took out the divorce letter and expressed Li Fengxia's opinion of him full of grievances. Shen Shaoguang mentioned that Li Fengxia was also very gentle when she was young.They were all tempered by the hardships of life, but Shen Jianshe always flaunted himself first and could not see Li Fengxia's efforts at all. Shen Jianshe was also vaguely aware of his shortcomings. Seeing the Master of Chef competition, he hoped that he could perform well and win back Li Fengxia's heart.

Liu Chang found out through Aunt Du, who had defrauded Shen Shaojie of his money, that Lu Yun of Yunlai Restaurant was obviously in the catering business, but he had a warehouse stocked with a large amount of ordnance. Moreover, Zhao Xunzhi often went to Yunlai Restaurant to eat before the accident.Meng Xiang sent an invitation to Jingzhao Mansion, and invited Lin Yan to go with him for the Master of Cooking Competition.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 26 plot introduction

Shen Shaojie couldn't survive outside, so he finally returned to Yong'an in embarrassment. When Yaren mentioned that Shen's restaurant in Juxian Lane was recruiting people, Shen Shaojie wished he could crawl into the cracks in the ground because he had no face to see his family. Yaren also informed Yunlai Restaurant that they were also recruiting workers, so they went to apply for the job. Shen Shaojie deliberately stuck on his beard, so no one recognized him. Lu Yun saw that Shen Shaojie spoke in a lively manner, so he agreed to stay and lead the horse for him.

Shen Jianshe made every effort to prepare for the Master of Cooking competition. He made several stir-fry dishes for Yu San to taste. Before closing time, Yu San was invited to the table. He felt that he was being treated very unusually. This was unimaginable for a slave. Shen Jianshe said that since he was working in his own restaurant, he was like a family. When Yu San saw Shen Jianshe treating each other sincerely, he evaluated the dishes truthfully.Shen Jianshe began to pester Yu San to teach him how to cook, and worked hard every day to practice knife skills, arm strength, and cooking pots. Li Fengxia watched this, and finally showed a look of satisfaction on her face.

On the day of the Master of Chef Competition, chefs from several famous restaurants gathered to compete. Shen Jianshe and Shen Jingwen also came to compete. In addition to Kang Yuan from the Etiquette Department, Yongan's number one gourmet, he was the chief judge.Meng Xiang was invited to watch with Lin Yan and come up with a topic for the competition, allowing the chefs to express themselves freely with a poem.Shen Jingwen was the first to understand the poetry and began to carefully select the ingredients. Shen Jianshe scratched his head anxiously and had to follow the other chefs to choose a little of each dish. Lin Yan and Meng Xiang discussed the profoundness of the topic and the intention of integrating the taste of life into the dishes. Meng Xiang was very satisfied with Lin Yan's reading.

The chefs quickly sorted out the ingredients, cut them or arranged them, and basically completed the first step of the process. Only Shen Jianshe was still circling around. Suddenly, he discovered that every poem had a year and year word, which should describe life, but he still didn't know which dish to use to present it.Lu Yun started to have his own thoughts and sent someone to call Shen Shaojie who was washing dishes in the restaurant to sabotage the chefs who were slightly better than Yunlai, especially the Shen family.Shen Shaojie squeezed into the crowd and was quickly discovered by Shen Yangyang.Shen Yangyang ran to Shen Shaojie and recognized her. Shen Shaojie couldn't control it anymore, holding her daughter and crying. Ayuan thought Shen Yangyang had met a bad guy, so he ran forward and kicked her. The commotion caused everyone to watch. Li Fengxia and Shen Shaoguang also ran to protect Shen Yangyang. The scene was chaotic. Shen Jianshe heard someone calling Shen Shaojie, so he dropped the iron pot to watch, but accidentally sprained his wrist.

Seeing the commotion caused, Shen Shaojie hurriedly fled the scene, but Shen Jianshe's wrist was injured. Li Fengxia suggested going to the hospital immediately, but Shen Jianshe did not agree. He looked thoughtful. Lin Yan also ran to the crowd and prepared to send someone to follow Shen Shaojie. Shen Shaoguang's eyes conveyed that he should not act, and Lin Yan returned to the viewing platform.Shen Jianshe suddenly understood what he was going to cook and immediately started busy.

When it was time for a stick of incense, Shen Jingwen and Guixiang Restaurant cooked four dishes that symbolized the four stages of life and the change of seasons respectively. Yunlai Restaurant’s exquisite knife work was the most gorgeous in the restaurant, but Shen Jianshe cooked six home-cooked dishes to explain the favorites of each of the five members of the family.They even cooked a dish of rice tofu. Lin Yan realized that the Shen family had already regarded him as a family member. Kang Yuanwai asked about the meaning of the dishes. Shen Jianshe explained that he hoped that his family could eat their favorite meals after a busy day, and that winning or losing had long been ignored.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 27 plot introduction

Kang Yuanwailang announced that Shen Jingwen won the title of God of Cooking. Although Shen Jianshe did not win the award, he was very happy and was pulled by his family to rush to the hospital.In order to create an opportunity for Lin Yan and Shen Jingwen to get along with each other, Meng Xiang specially invited Shen Shaoguang and Liu Feng to have dinner together. During this period, the four of them had their own agendas and were quite suspicious of Meng Xiang's vision of people.

In the evening, Shen Shaojie sneaked into his restaurant. The family had been waiting in advance, and Lin Yan arrived soon after. Shen Shaojie boasted about himself first, but no one believed it. Lin Yan asked if he had noticed any abnormalities since he started working at Yunlai Winery. Shen Shaojie told him that a lot of goods were brought in and out every day, and some wooden boxes were even painted with patterns.Lin Yan arranged for Shen Shaojie to pick him up the next day so that he could conduct a thorough investigation of Yun Lai's wine shop. Yu San eavesdropped outside the door and immediately informed Lu Yun.

Because Yu San leaked the secret, Shen Shaojie pretended to help move the goods the next day and was directly imprisoned by Lu Yun. Lin Yan broke into Yunlai Wine Restaurant at night and fell into Lu Yun's trap. Lin Yan exchanged himself for Shen Shaojie as a hostage. During the exchange, he put a knife on Lu Yun's neck, then stepped back and led Shen Shaojie out of Yunlai Winery safely.Shen Shaojie finally had the idea. When he was washing the dishes in the morning, he found that Lu Yun had arranged for his men to move the goods. He found a lot of spices and wrapped them in quicklime. He used the principle of self-heating pot and threw the spice bags into the wooden box while helping to move the goods. As long as the quicklime burns, the spices will emit the smell.Lin Yan asked Liu Chang to take Shen Shaojie back first, and he went to various warehouses in Yong'an to search.Following the smell of spices, Lin Yan quickly found the warehouse where the weapons were hidden.

Shen Shaojie told his family about his heroic deeds, but no one believed him at all. It was not until Lin Yan came back to explain the situation that the family changed their views. Shen Yangyang happily called Shen Shaojie a hero, and Shen Shaojie enjoyed the feeling of being admired for the first time.In the evening, the family gathered around Shen Shaojie to shave his beard, and Yu San passed by furtively. He saw several people lying about waking up at night and calling out Shen Shaojie's name. Shen Shaoguang thought that Yu San did not know Shen Shaojie, but he could call out the name. There must be something fishy in it. Li Fengxia also felt something strange, so she guessed that the news that Shen Shaojie was lurking in Yunlai Wine Shop must have been eavesdropped and leaked by Yu San.

Over the next few days, Shen Jianshe and Li Fengxia started talking with guns and sticks, and Shen Yangyang and Ayuan also pointed out something. Yu San felt very awkward, so he talked to Shen Shaoguang and explained that he was a slave. Only the Shen family treated him as a human being, and no one except his mother treated him like this. Shen Shaoguang suggested that Yu Sanchang go home to see his mother, but Yu San said that it was inconvenient to visit because there were people at home.The Shen family began to analyze Yu San's words, guessing that their parents were being controlled and blackmailed, so they began to devise a plan to get Yu San to tell the truth.

On Yu San's birthday, the Shen family extinguished all the candles. Yu San returned to the dark room. Worried that someone would hurt him, he pulled out a kitchen knife from behind. The Shen family then appeared with a birthday cake. Yu San thought that the Shen family was pretending to win people's hearts. Shen Jianshe offered to help Yu San escape from slavery. No matter how much money it cost, if they were forced by King Zhao, they could go to the Jingzhao Mansion to redress their grievances. Yu San made the Shen family swear an oath, and then admitted that he was the king of Zhao.

Li Ang reported to King Zhao that Yantie had been moved to a safe place by Lu Yun, but Yunlai Wine Shop could no longer be used as a transit point. Instead of being constrained everywhere, it would be better to kill Lin Yan directly. King Zhao blamed Li Ang for being simple-minded. Lin Yan was a third-rank official in Yong'an, and killing him would definitely attract the attention of the emperor. As long as he was removed from important positions, it would be easy to deal with it.Feng Li did not hesitate to be tortured with a cane, so he sued Lin Yan and Cao Rong for shielding his relatives. King Zhao's confidants also sued Lin Yan for asking the people to beat the curfew drum on the Lantern Festival, insinuating that Lin Yan had transgressed.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 28 plot introduction

Shen Shaoguang made a new type of snack and gave it to the eldest princess to taste. However, the eldest princess was thinking about “violent scumbag” tea drink and bought the raw materials to make it herself. She hated Pei Fei for not coming to the appointment recently. Someone sent a message to the house that Lin Yan was impeached in the court, so Shen Shaoguang hurried to Jingzhao Mansion.After going to court, Prime Minister Meng reminded Lin Yan that he was alone in Yong'an and it was better to avoid causing trouble. However, if he could become his grandson-in-law, no one would dare to make things difficult for him anymore. Lin Yan thanked him for his kindness but did not agree in person.

After leaving Jingzhao Mansion, I passed by the Shen Family Restaurant. Shen Shaoguang was already waiting at the door. When Lin Yan passed by, he brought some food and told Yu San that he had leaked the secret to King Zhao. However, Yu San was not a bad person, but his parents were held as hostages in Fenglin Town. If he could save his parents, Yu San was willing to help identify them.Lin Yan began to recall the scene when he was rescued by King Zhao. After being brought to Sushui City, King Zhao treated him as his own son. He and Liu Chang went out and wandered several times and contracted serious diseases. In order to strengthen himself, King Zhao also asked a master to teach him martial arts and taught him to be loyal and patriotic. However, he never imagined that his adoptive father, who had sacrificed so much, would actually have a mortal enemy.

Shen Shaoguang was about to leave, but thinking that Lin Yan had been hit by many things in succession, he ran back to Yunshuiyuan to accompany him, letting Lin Yan still talk to him as if he were a tree hole. Lin Yan no longer suppressed his hatred and vented wildly.Shen Shaoguang comforted her that it was not the worst situation. At least Lin Yan had spent seventeen years safely in Prince Zhao's Mansion, and now he had the ability to protect himself. Lin Yan found that Shen Shaoguang did care about him, and formally proposed marriage to Shen Shaoguang after rehabilitating the Cui family.

Shen Shaoguang knew that he could no longer hide it, so he explained that he came from a thousand years later. Yunshuiyuan was his ancestral home. He came to Yong'an by accident. Because his grandfather had told about his ancestors, he knew many things in advance, including Lin Yan's life experience. Lin Yan remembered that the Shen family had worshiped him in person again and again, and finally understood the reason. The two left without words.Shen Shaoguang returned to the restaurant and started cleaning day and night, using excessive fatigue to make himself forget about Lin Yan. Shen Jianshe was worried that his body would not be able to bear it in the long run, but Li Fengxia believed that her daughter had her own sense of proportion.

Lin Yan rediscovered the ruler with Shen Shaoguang's name on it. Liu Chang came to tell him that he had investigated and found out that the cart carrying vegetables at Yunlai Restaurant had left the city at night a few days ago. Jinwu Guards also cooperated. Lin Yan guessed that Zhao Xunzhi must have been hidden in the car.In the evening, Lin Yan followed the cart transporting goods at Yunlai Restaurant and heard the mention of Fenglin Town. It must be the base where King Zhao exchanged items, so he decided to go to the palace to meet the emperor the next day and arranged for Liu Changshou to protect the Shen family in Yong'an.

Shen Shaojie still wanted to continue his undercover career, but was told by Liu Chang that Lin Yan had gone to Fenglin Town. Shen Shaojie explained that he had been living in Fenglin Town some time ago and was very familiar with Fenglin Town, so he was sure that he could help. Liu Chang persuaded Shen Shaoguang to stop Shen Shaojie, but Shen Shaoguang offered to go and help.Lin Yan sneaked into a courtyard and found a dark room based on the secret symbols. As expected, a large amount of weapons and salt were stored. Later, he found that Zhao Xunzhi was also imprisoned together. He took Zhao Xunzhi out of the dark room. Li Ang was already waiting at the door.

Lin Yan and Zhao Xunzhi were unable to withstand attacks from all sides, and were quickly surrounded by officers and soldiers. However, Li Ang wanted to destroy Lin Yan's kung fu with his own hands. When the two fought, Lin Yan had the advantage and hurriedly led Zhao Xunzhi away.Lin Yan and Zhao Xunzhi fled overnight and ran to the woods in the suburbs the next morning to meet up with Shen Shaoguang's brother and sister who came to help. Lin Yan could no longer hold on and fell into Shen Shaoguang's arms.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 29 plot introduction

Liu Chang rushed to the rescue and quickly brought Lin Yan back to Yunshuiyuan. Due to excessive blood loss, Lin Yan was almost in a semi-conscious state. Shen Shaoguang kept calling his name beside him, for fear that Lin Yan would fall asleep and his organs would be exposed at the wound, and the doctor would be unable to do anything. Shen Shaoguang remembered that it was recorded in the book that the numbness had dispersed in this era, so he asked the doctor to find and suture him.

The doctor didn't know what suturing was and could only watch and worry. Lin Yan asked Shen Shaoguang to sew for himself. Shen Shaoguang was a little worried. Shen Shaojie mentioned that he had experience in sewing clothes. Shen Shaoguang saw Lin Yan's expectant eyes and decided to do it himself.Using a candle to grill the sewing needle and disinfect it with salt water, Shen Shaoguang quickly sutured the wound, and after a period of time the bleeding basically stopped.Lin Yan regained his strength a little and pulled Shen Shaoguang to prevent him from leaving. Shen Shaoguang could break free with a little effort, but he kept asking for words.

Shen Shaoguang hoped that Lin Yan would take good care of his injuries and that another woman named Shen would marry Lin Yan in the future. The two would respect each other as guests and have offspring. However, Lin Yan said that even if he disregarded ethics and betrayed his ancestors, he would still stay with Shen Shaoguang.Shen Shaojie delivered food to Lin Yan, but Cheng Hu guarded the door and did not allow anyone to come in or out. The key point was that Shen Shaoguang was still locked up in Yunshuiyuan and he didn't know his condition. Shen Shaojie could only worry.

Lin Yan went out to meet Zhao Xunzhi. Zhao Xunzhi took him to an abandoned house and told him that he had troubled conscience after the Cui family incident, secretly enshrined Cui Rangzhi's spiritual throne, and that King Zhao forced him to recruit students.Lin Yan returned to Yunshuiyuan, and Shen Shaoguang explained that he did not like the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, so Lin Yan had to take out the clothes that Shen Shaoguang had hidden.When the Shen family was worried, Shen Shaoguang slowly walked into the restaurant and said that he was only taking care of Lin Yan for a few days.

Li Ang was scratched on the face by Lin Yan and felt extremely humiliated. King Zhao finally made up his mind and ordered to take action.Lin Yan went into the palace to meet the emperor, and an unfamiliar-looking official told him that he was ill and could not receive him.Lin Yan had no choice but to leave.On the way back to Yunshuiyuan, Lin Yan had always suspected that the eunuch serving the emperor had always been Qin Zhonggui. Even if something happened occasionally, several eunuchs around Qin Zhonggui would do it for him. Today, a stranger's face was indeed unusual.On the way, I met Pei Fei again. Pei Fei brought food to the eldest princess. He was told that the eldest princess went to the palace early in the morning to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, which was not the time in previous years.

Back at Yunshui Garden, Lin Yan was sure that something had happened in the palace, and Shen Yangyang happened to be studying in the palace. Shen Shaojie was so anxious that he could not sit still. Shen Shaoguang remembered that his grandfather had not mentioned this rebellion, so it would not cause too much trouble.In the palace, King Zhao has already sat on the Dragon Boat Festival, and according to the custom of Dragon Boat Festival, he shoots the youth ball, intending to murder the prince, and then blames the crime of rebellion on the prince, so that he will gain a reputation as a Qingjun.

Shen Shaojie couldn't stay in the restaurant and had to go to the palace to save his daughter. The Shen family had no time to think too much and prepared to enter the palace collectively, but they were stopped by a group of officers and soldiers as soon as they left.Li Ang forced the prince Li Xu to write a confession. The eldest princess persuaded Li Ang to return when he lost his way, but Li Ang told him that if he could not understand the situation, the eldest princess could only pursue the title after her death. When Li Xu was about to write, Shen Yangyang suddenly stopped him. Li Ang lost his patience and was about to kill Shen Yangyang with a sword. Li Xu did not hesitate to cut his hand and hold the blade.Immediately afterwards, Liu Chang led people to come to the rescue.Pei Fei put on Lin Yan's official uniform to lure away the officers and soldiers, fled to the woods and was stopped. Yu San came to the rescue in the critical moment.King Zhao didn't know what was happening outside in the court, so he still forced the emperor to hand over the jade seal and military talismans.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 30 plot introduction

Princess Fuhui went outside the court to carry out a crusade. King Zhao ran out of the hall and saw Lin Yan accompanying him. He prepared to kill Lin Yan first, but when he pulled out his sword, he discovered that Pei Fei had worn Lin Yan's court uniform.At the same time, Lin Yan kidnapped Lu Yun and reminded King Zhao that even if he succeeded in usurping power, it would be impossible to leave relevant insiders behind. If he reported treason, the crime and punishment would be reduced according to the laws of the day. Lu Yun then revealed the place where the letters between King Zhao and Concubine Dou were hidden. Lin Yan finally told him that the law for reporting treason did not exist at all.

In the palace, the imperial guards suddenly surrounded King Zhao. Fu Hui took out his military talisman and ordered to arrest King Zhao. Li Ang led a group of men and horses suddenly broke into the palace gate, and after a fierce fight, he and King Zhao rode away.Liu Chang sent the Shen family out of the palace and told them to go home quickly. King Zhao Li Ang happened to be passing by on horseback, and Shen Shaoguang planned to stop him. When Li Ang found out, he insisted on asking Shen Shaoguang to pay for Lin Yan's life. Lin Yan arrived in an instant and took control of Li Ang. At the same time, King Zhao put a knife on Shen Shaoguang's neck.

King Zhao proposed to let Li Ang go and stay as a hostage. For Shen Shaoguang's safety, Lin Yan let Li Ang go.When King Zhao was about to start a killing spree, Lin Yan took the lead and thrust his sword into King Zhao's abdomen.King Zhao was dying soon, and the scenes of taking Lin Yan in seventeen years ago emerged one by one. He stretched out his hands and wanted to touch Lin Yan again. Lin Yan was even more sad and happy. Seeing King Zhao die, he roared loudly to the sky, and then knelt down to worship King Zhao for his upbringing.

The turmoil finally ended. The Shen family was rehabilitated and was awarded a plaque by the emperor. Their business became even more prosperous.The Cui family was able to clear their name and was granted the title of Zhongliang. However, Lin Yan was still impeached by Yushitai. He was a guilty person when he served as the Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture. Cao Rong and Pei Fei tried their best to excuse Lin Yan, but to no avail.While the Shen family was discussing what kind of reward they wanted, Liu Chang suddenly came to tell Lin Yan that he had been sent to prison for deceiving the emperor.When the curfew time came, Shen Shaoguang spent a lot of money to sneak into the prison to deliver meals to Lin Yan. Everyone in the Shen family cooked a specialty dish. Lin Yan once again felt the warmth of home and told Shen Shaoguang not to take risks.

The next day, Shen Shaoguang went to the eldest princess to intercede and learned that the emperor had no intention of killing Lin Yan. However, as the governor of Jingzhao, he was too incorruptible and harmed the interests of many officials. Therefore, he was framed for deceiving the emperor. If he wanted to save Lin Yan, he could only start with laws and regulations.Shen Shaoguang went to the palace to ask for the iron certificate of the elixir for the Shen family, so that Lin Yan could marry him to save his life. The censor's desk kept pressing, and Pei Fei directly interceded for Lin Yan, explaining that the Shen family had a marriage contract with Lin Yan, so he could be protected by the iron certificate of the elixir. Cao Rong took out the betrothal gift from the Shen family to prove that Lin Yan had married into the Shen family, and thus replaced Lin Yan and restored him to his original position.

Shen Shaoguang took Lin Yan out of prison, explaining that he could only think of the only way to violate the law. After the situation calmed down, the family would move out of Yong'an as soon as possible and ask for forgiveness from their ancestors.The emperor ordered the painter to paint Lin Yan's portrait of Shen Shaoguang. After the painting was completed, the Shen family found that it was consistent with the portrait hanging in Yunshuiyuan Ancestral Hall. When it was Shen Shaoguang's turn, Shen Shaoguang playfully stretched out two fingers. The painter said:After the painting was finished, it always felt a little strange. Lin Yan picked up the brush and drew a few willow branches around the portrait of Shen Shaoguang. The Shen family found that the portrait of Shen Shaoguang was consistent with the portrait hanging in the ancestral hall.

Shen Shaojie began to feel dizzy, and from time to time the scene before time travel came to mind. He suddenly remembered that one time when Shen Shaoguang was in a cram school, his grandfather told him alone that the ancestor of the Shen family was actually Pei Fei, but he felt that Lin Yan was more capable, so he was forcibly placed in the Shen family.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 31 plot introduction

Without the constant obstruction of ethics, Lin Yan could marry Shen Shaoguang. On the day of the wedding, Shen Shaojie stopped Lin Yan at the door and prepared several brain teasers, but Lin Yan could answer them all and even made some earthy love words.A Yuan put makeup on Shen Shaoguang, and Shen Yangyang sent a makeup reminder letter. Lin Yan asked Shen Shaoguang to help him out.

The eldest princess also came to the wedding banquet. After Shen Jianshe and his wife settled down the distinguished guests, they were called aside by Cao Rong. They had never seen the wedding ceremony wording prepared by the Shen family, so they read the previous paragraph for Shen Jianshe and his wife to evaluate. Cao Rong was very emotional, just like a wedding master of ceremonies for more than ten years. Shen Jianshe only made a few comments and showed eight teeth when presiding. Cao Rong hurried to the side to practice.

Pei Fei sat down directly at the gate. Shen Jianshe and Li Fengxia thought it was disrespectful to their ancestors and hurriedly asked to be seated. Pei Fei deliberately explained that he had just been promoted to the fifth rank, but he was still not suitable to sit with the princess.Shen Jingwen and Madam Zheng were also invited to the wedding banquet. Madam Zheng said that she never believed that Cui Che had died. Now she was filled with joy when she saw Cui Che getting married. The wedding was very festive. In the evening, the eldest princess also gave a brochure about the wedding night, and the two finally gave their bodies to each other.

The next day, the officers and soldiers of Jingzhao Mansion called Shen Shaoguang sister-in-law. Shen Shaoguang specially brought ten-flavor crabs from his own restaurant. Someone asked about not seeing Shen Shaojie for a long time. Lin Yan told Shen Shaojie and Liu Feng that they were busy opening a restaurant branch.Shen Shaojie runs his third branch and has launched a new children's set meal, which is very popular among Yongan ladies. Hearing that Shen Yangyang regarded him as a hero in school, he felt an overwhelming sense of accomplishment.Shen Yangyang was also rated as an outstanding student. The master asked how he could draw inferences about the Four Books and Five Classics. Shen Yangyang said that he should dare to challenge authority and have an innovative spirit. The master felt puzzled after hearing this.

Pei Fei was promoted to Yushi Zhongcheng. The eldest princess once again expressed her feelings, and Pei Fei stopped evading, explaining that although the Pei family was from a prominent family, she was only from a poor family. Her father died young, and her mother raised her to adulthood alone. Only now that she has been promoted to the fifth rank can she be able to take her mother in and take care of her, and she is simply unable to take care of another daughter.Son, the eldest princess said that she didn’t care about the family’s financial resources at all, but Pei Fei believed that if the eldest princess got married, it would be a confirmation of her failure in life, so she was willing to be a royal minister forever and protect the great country for the eldest princess. Finally, she said that she had truly loved the eldest princess, but true understanding is the prerequisite for love without regrets.Li Ang hid everywhere and couldn't even find enough food to fill his stomach. He vowed to let Lin Yan taste the feeling of life being worse than death.

It was the Mid-Autumn Festival again, Lin Yan made mooncakes with Shen Shaoguang, and learned a lot of vocabulary about the future hometown. When helping to tie the apron, Shen Shaoguang remembered that he tied the tablecloth for Lin Yan during the Mid-Autumn Festival last year. Lin Yan's ears turned red, and he guessed that he had been attracted to him since then.In the evening, the Shen family held a banquet. Liu Feng gave up the opportunity to reunite with his family and came to join in the fun. Shen Jingwen was no longer forced to marry since he had won the God of Cooking. Lin Yan also thoughtfully prepared meals for the patrolling soldiers. Shen Jianshe made spring water mutton. When everyone was praising them, they discovered that a nearby restaurant suddenly caught fire.

《The banquet meets Yongan》Episode 32 plot introduction

Lin Yan immediately arranged for his men to put out the fire. The fire spread quickly and was about to reach the Shen family restaurant. The Shen family members remembered that Shen Yangyang was still in the restaurant, so they joined in putting out the fire.When Shen Shaojie was rescuing people, he was hit in the head by a burnt beam. He suddenly remembered that his grandfather told Mrs. Shen that her family died in a fire, so she immediately looked for her family.When Shen Shaoguang was putting out the fire, he saw Li Ang holding Xiao Ming and deliberately passing by. Shen Jianshe and his wife came to tell the family that they might have to travel back in time. Shen Shaoguang had no time to think about it and followed Li Ang to find the unconscious Shen Yangyang. When he was about to leave, he was taken hostage by Li Ang.

The Shen family arrived shortly afterwards, and they all rushed to take Shen Shaoguang's place as a hostage. Li Ang became frantic and asked the Shen family to look for Lin Yan, and then took Shen Shaoguang to a room that had not collapsed yet.Shen Shaoguang tried to delay time, but Li Ang was not fooled at all and was about to kill Shen Shaoguang. Lin Yan finally appeared and fought with Li Ang. In panic, Li Ang stepped on the air. Lin Yan grabbed Li Ang's arm instantly, but Li Ang deliberately pushed Lin Yan into the sea of ​​​​fire. Lin Yan's body had just fallen, and Shen Shaoguang pulled him back with force.

Shen Shaoguang finally realized the feeling of Lin Yan desperately saving him in Sushui City. Even though he was in great pain, he did not choose to let go, so he held on tightly. The two were rescued together. Lin Yan saw that Shen Shaoguang's arm was punctured, so he tore off his sleeve and bandaged it.The two walked out together, and a butterfly flew in front of Shen Shaoguang. Then he remembered that Shen Shaojie had said that he had reached the end. The officers and soldiers of Jingzhao Mansion opened the rescue net. Shen Shaoguang kissed Lin Yan for the last time, then pushed Lin Yan downstairs, and then gradually disappeared in a blur of light and shadow.

The next day, Lin Yan searched everywhere for Shen Shaoguang in the ruins, but could not find even a charred corpse. The owner of the restaurant came to thank Jingzhao Mansion for saving his life. Lin Yan asked if he had seen the Shen family. The owner said that the restaurant had always been run by him and had never heard of the Shen family. Liu Chang looked at Lin Yan and felt strange. He did not know where he had fabricated the non-existent Shen family out of thin air.

As time passed, Lin Yan still tried to explain his relationship with the Shen family, but no one believed him.In order to prevent himself from forgetting Shen Shaoguang, Lin Yan drew the appearance of Shen's restaurant from memory on a piece of paper, then rented the same location and rebuilt it, completely imitating the style of Shen's restaurant. Even the menu was completely copied. He hoped that one day Shen Shaoguang would come back and think of the time they spent together.

Several years have passed, and Lin Yan has grown gray-haired, and has not yet returned to his old age. Every time he walks into the Shen family restaurant, familiar scenes will appear in front of his eyes. The two of them eat hot pot together, learn to use the dishwasher, enjoy the lanterns on the Lantern Festival night, and finally get married after going through hardships. Along with the beautiful memories, the old Lin Yan falls in the snow and ends his life.Shen Shaoguang was woken up from a coma by his family, and found that he had traveled back to modern times, as if he had had a beautiful dream. When he woke up, he was left in tears. Li Fengxia didn't know what her daughter had gone through in the coma, so she could only hold her in her arms to comfort her.

The Shen family's small restaurant finally opened. The short video of falling in love with his ancestors through time and space attracted many customers. His family members advised Shen Shaoguang not to immerse himself in dreams, but only Shen Shaoguang knew that everything he experienced was not just a dream.In the evening, Shen Shaoguang wrote down memories about Lin Yan in his diary. It was as if he saw Lin Yan spend the rest of his life alone from the perspective of a bystander, and he was only left with longing, thinking about it, and tears falling drop by drop on the diary.

The next day, Shen Shaoguang went to the Shen family ancestral hall to worship. When he saw the hanging statue, he couldn't help but remember how it was drawn on the paper in his dream. Suddenly, he heard someone calling his name. He turned around and saw a man who looked exactly like Lin Yan. Shen Shaoguang asked how he knew his name. The man said that he had just experienced a dream, and Shen Shaoguang was in the dream. The diary in Shen Shaoguang's hand fell to the ground. The two looked at each other, already filled with tears.
