Deciding on the king's grandfather

The trio had a hearty meal, with the two siblings being shocked at the level of skill of the chef. They had assumed Yang Qing to be bragging, but the level of skill shown by the chef had surpassed the ones shown by their chefs. It was to the point that it prompted the third prince to inquire if there was a way for him to rope in some chefs from the White Baobab Kingdom.

Yang Qing and the chef exchanged a smile before they said he could try. The third prince read enough to know it wouldn't be easy.

Yang Qing saw the third prince still held intentions of trying and he wasn't about to dissuade him from it by telling him how futile it would be because of the gluttonous king who would never take it lying down. 

The rest of the conversation went as Yang Qing had expected which was platitudes here and there, with the third prince trying to cozy up to him so he could eventually be one of his 'connections' down the line.
