As early as the year of Empress Wu Zetian's accession to the throne, the situation in the DPRK was unstable, and many senior officials still couldn't accept that women were in charge of the state affairs of the world.

At this time, a farmer dug up a big radish in the field in Xixiachi, Luoyang. At that time, he thought it was a strange thing, so he gave it to the queen. When the queen saw it, her face was wide open and she said, "Heaven is auspicious, and it will nourish my Wu family." So I cut the radish into very fine pieces, steamed it for nine times and dried it in the sun, then simmered it in soup and gave it to Wu Zetian. When Wu Zetian ate it, she said, Why is today's bird's nest different from usual? It was only when the chef in the imperial kitchen asked that it was auspicious. Long Yan was overjoyed that he named it Luoyang Yancai.

In 195, Premier Zhou Enlai stayed at Luoyang Friendship Hotel. In order to show his love for the Prime Minister, a chef named Ma carved a peony flower on the soup with water radish.

Premier Zhou was very happy when he saw it, saying: Luoyang peony is the best in the world, and the soup was born.

This dish is now one of the three characteristics of Luoyang. Hehe, when will you come to Luoyang to taste it? !

hehe, I'm exhausted.
