Manbao: "There's still a way to get venison, but steamed meat is out of the question. I just got back from leave and can't leave the palace."
Changyu: "But don't you have a teacher who enters and leaves the palace daily?"
Manbao: "…But my teacher can't bring food into the palace. It's only because I'm staying overnight that the guards turn a blind eye..."
Changyu was very eager to try the steamed meat that the palace maids gossiped about and even dreamt of its aroma, so she said, "Then just go to the palace gate to pick it up, go on, go on. You bring the steamed meat, and I'll pay the royal kitchen to make a plate of Xueling roast."
Manbao: "I've never heard of that dish. Is it tasty?"
Changyu eagerly recommended it, "It's delicious. It's made from the best four ounces of lamb leg roasted with secret spices..."
