The three of them compete and cooperate as they advance through the ranks, coming up with unique cuisines which incorporate Chinese medicine, and also re-creating old classic famous dishes. Yao ZiJin, however, has a past connection to the palace that she struggles to repress but that also puts her in danger once she catches the eye of the Imperial Grandson.
