Zhongzong asked everyone to be kind to Daming's envoys and let the sealing of the prince go smoothly. Daming's people gave the medicine bag to Han Shanggong and asked her to give the decoction to Daming's messenger. It turns out that the ambassador has diabetes. When Han Shanggong learned that he was ill, he arranged health dishes for him, but he liked the ambassador who made trouble and dragged Han Shanggong away with an unhappy face. Chang Jin saw that Han Shanggong was taken away, so he explained to Lord Zheng Shi that Chang Jin promised to eat these dishes for five days, and his health would obviously improve, so he let Chang Jin cook with his own hands, and said that if he didn't get better, he would be punished by Daming's national law. Empress Dowager Cixi was furious when she knew that Special Envoy Daming had been slowed down. Cui Shanggong said that she would go to Taiping Pavilion to cook and serve food herself. Cui Shanggong and Jin Ying went to the kitchen of Taiping Pavilion, but they were invited out by Changjin, saying that the adults had promised to eat her food, so Cui Shanggong told Wu Jianhu that they would give the adults a palace banquet for three days and three nights in five days. It takes adults five days to eat Changjin's food. They look ugly when they eat, and Chang Jin is very nervous. Five days later, Cui Shanggong asked the adults present to cook delicious dishes, which made him happy. But after eating, he said he wouldn't eat any more, because he realized that people who cook food do it with their heart, but only people who eat food will appreciate it and find it interesting.

Because the nanny entered the palace, the queen summoned Changjin to see her. The queen not only inquired about the nanny's entry into the palace, but also learned about Changjin's experience in the Taiping Pavilion and appreciated her very much. The body carving worker found the good man and proposed that Cui Shanggong was the highest worker. Min Shanggong replaced Zheng Shanggong to find out the ingredients of the medicine he took every day and found that there was something wrong with the ingredients of the medicine. When Zheng Shanggong knew about it, he sent a letter to Titian Shanggong, threatening her to return to the palace with medicine and books. The Empress Dowager went to see Master Cui and Titian and cursed them for offering a palace banquet knowing that Daming was making adults sick, and also scolded Master Cui for taking credit.

When Cui Shanghong saw this, he had no choice but to bring Han Shanghong and Chang Jin back to the palace, and Zheng Shanggong also returned to the palace smoothly. The Empress Dowager and Empress visited the Imperial Kitchen, saying that it was because of a strange disease in the palace that delayed the game in the Supreme Palace. However, the consumption of Special Envoy Daming in the Taiping Pavilion was the second round, so it was necessary to play another game after the two rounds to decide the outcome.

He found that someone had touched it, and Jang Jin was wondering who was his mother's good friend.
