During the war, Su Yao, a refugee, broke into the capital with a kitchen knife in her hand. She just wanted to open a small and cheap restaurant to survive. Unexpectedly, the "survival meal" she cooked turned out to be the medicine for Xiao Yan, a nine-thousand-year-old powerful man. From then on, she used pots and pans to stir up the court, used the fireworks of the market to fight for power, and kidnapped the cold-faced powerful minister.
Su Yao believes that in troubled times, she can survive if she has a skill at hand.
She was wrong.
In this capital city where the imperial power has fallen by the wayside and nine-thousand-year-old Xiao Yan dominates the sky with one hand, if you want to keep the ancestral recipes and open a "One Bowl of Fragrance" that allows poor people to afford food, just being able to cook is not enough.
In order to survive, she kept her name anonymous and worked as a humble waiter in the "Zui Xian Tower", the largest gold selling cave in the capital.
During the day, she is the hard-working Su Xiaoer in the kitchen, using leftover materials to develop the "dust and sand warmth" that astonished the dignitaries;
At night, she was an information dealer who shuttled through the streets and alleys, relying on bowls of cheap food to weave an intelligence network that could shake the court.
The legendary nine-thousand-year-old Xiao Yan, who was ruthless and decisive in killing, accidentally tasted her craftsmanship during a private visit incognito.
From then on, this arrogant and powerful minister became the most loyal repeat customer in her small restaurant.
He said: "Su Yao, the food you cook can save the country."
Su Yao rolled her eyes: "I just want to make money, not save the country. Can we pay for the meal?"
Xiao Yan thought he was a hunter and kept this smart and cunning little cook in his sight.
As everyone knows, Su Yao has already laid a dragnet where he can't see it.
When the chief minister teamed up with the vassal king to launch a palace coup, Xiao Yan fell into isolation...
