Chapter 122: Suspicious

But it turned out that when the maidservant was distributing vegetables to the Duchess of Xia Guo, who was sitting next to the Su family, she didn't pay attention, touched the arm of the Duchess of Dingguo, and spilled the soup on the sleeve of the Duchess of Dingguo.

Now it is determined that the Duke of Guo is the nephew of the Empress Dowager's mother's family who has passed away, the cousin of the Emperor Taishang, and the cousin of Emperor Xilong.

Therefore, although the Duchess of Dingguo is the same age as Princess Ning, she is already a woman who is close to the age of sixties.

When the county lord of Roujia introduced Chu Yuning to the county lord of Wenyi, the interjecting girl with a pair of crystal clear eyes was Xia Yao, the granddaughter of the Duchess of Dingguo.

According to the seniority, she should be called the county lord of Wenyi and the cousin of the county lord of Roujia.

However, because Xue Yongyi and the two of them are not related by marriage, and the two are close in age, Xia Yao is the youngest among them, so she will not be reluctant to call Xue Yongyi sister. Lord Wen Yi and the others never blamed her for messing up her ranks.

Hearing this exclamation from her grandmother, Xia Yao hurriedly got up and left the table, walked to the Duchess of Dingguo, snatched the handkerchief from the hand of the girl serving behind her, and wiped the soup on the sleeve of the Duchess of Dingguo: "Grandmother, are you hot?" ”

Duchess Dingguo shook her head and looked at Xia Yao with a smile, with a hint of self-deprecation in her eyes, "I'm old, and my body is not as flexible as before, which makes everyone frightened." ”

The girl who was on the side immediately bowed down and pleaded guilty, "It's the slave and maid who served improperly, please punish the lady!" ”

Princess Ning looked at the girl, and the smile on her face was slightly unnatural.

There were such mistakes at the banquet in King Ning's Mansion, and her face was inevitably gloomy.

"Hey! This girl looks very young, and occasional hand slips are inevitable! During the banquet, another lady looked at Princess Ning's face and hurriedly played a round.

Princess Ning squeezed out a smile on her face, "Cousin-in-law, your clothes are dirty, my brother and sister will take you down to change your clothes first." I'll keep this girl in mind first, and I'll punish her later. ”

The stains on the cuffs of the Duchess of Dingguo have been almost wiped by Xia Yao, because she is wearing a purple Fuzi Tuan-patterned silk gown, so the little soup splashed on the sleeves is slightly dazzling.

"This girl is also unintentional. Don't scare her, Princess. The Duchess of Dingguo stood up with Xia Yao's support and bowed slightly to everyone at the banquet, "I've disturbed everyone's interest in eating, and let me leave the table first to change my clothes." ”

Princess Ning also got up and accompanied the Duchess of Dingguo to change her clothes, leaving behind a woman with low eyebrows and a rather supple and simple look behind her to take care of the guests.

This person is the biological mother of the county lord of Roujia, the Xia side concubine from the Xia family of the Dingguo Mansion.

Concubine Xia saw that some soup had spilled on the table, and the dishes in front of Su Shi on the left side of the Duchess of Dingguo were not spared, so she ordered the girl to remove all the things on the table, rearrange the dishes and serve the dishes.

The girl who made a mistake hung her head and followed the rest of the girls without daring to say a word, and never appeared in the flower hall where the banquet was set up again.

The rest of the girls rushed in with their things, arranging the dishes and serving the dishes in an orderly manner.

The girl who gave Su Shi cloth vegetables took out a set of dishes and put them in front of Su Shi.

The dishes are fine blue and white porcelain, smooth as new, Su Shi doesn't know if it is because the place where he is sitting is brighter, this set of dishes, compared to the rest of the people on the table, the color looks slightly brighter.

She left an intention in her heart, and smiled softly at the girl who was a cabbage.

The girl also smiled back, and bowed down to scoop a small half bowl of meat soup for Su's family.

Su's eyebrows moved slightly.

There was a girl who was not very careful when serving the soup, and spilled the soup on the sleeve of the Duchess of Xia Guo, this girl was interesting, and immediately served her a small half bowl of soup.

Is it too ignorant of words and feelings, or is it boldness to rely on the artist?

Su Shi fell into deep thought for a moment, and his white jade-like fingers held the spoon and stirred it gently in the bowl, as if waiting for the soup to cool.

"I just frightened everyone, the princess is not here, and I will make my own decision and give everyone a cup." Concubine Xia picked up a glass of fruit wine from the girl's hand, and the ladies got up one after another, and Su Shi also stood up and picked up the glass on the wine table.

Concubine Xia raised her head and drank all the fruit wine in the cup, and looked at everyone with a smile, "Ladies, please feel free." ”

Su Shi put the wine glass in front of his lips, covered it with wide sleeves, the wine glass was slightly oblique, and sprinkled a little fruit wine into the sleeves without a trace, then licked his lips, and sat down with everyone with a smile.

With Fang Cai, she had to think more about it.

I don't know if it's her delusion, but when she put the glass down, the girl's breathing behind her sounded a little heavy.

The banquet continued, and the girl diligently served the dishes for the Su family.

However, the Su family just took the chopsticks and put them down, and did not eat.

After a cup of tea, Princess Ning came back with the Duchess of Xia Guo to change her clothes, and toasted everyone again to make amends.

Su Shi's gaze suddenly stared at the wine glass, and froze slightly.

This time she decided not to be dazzled.

Under the glass, there is a little white powder.

The amount is very small, and ordinary people will hardly find it if they don't look at it deliberately.

Princess Ning feasted her daughters with the best plum wine, which was clear and sweet, with a rich plum fragrance. Even if there are few residues, it should be a fine plum dregs, and how can there be white powder adhering to the bottom of the cup.

Su's heart was alarmed for a while.

His eyes quietly looked at the people in the banquet, and everyone talked softly, smiling, and there was no trace of abnormality.

So this wine glass is aimed at yourself alone?

If someone wants to poison themselves during the feast, they must not be stupid enough to put poison into the dishes, and the only thing they can do is the utensils.

Thinking about it like this, the Duchess of Dingguo was spilled with soup on her sleeves, whether the girl was careless, or if there was something else hidden, I have to say two things.

Su's mood gradually became solemn, the corners of his mouth still maintained a faint smile, pretending to listen carefully to what others were saying, his eyes were slightly lowered, and he looked at the tableware in front of himself and the ladies on the left and right.

In addition to the plate looking slightly whiter, the bowl is filled with soup and the spoon, so I can't see the difference for the time being.

Chopsticks......

Su picked up the chopsticks, which were dipped in vegetable juice, and he couldn't see any clues.

Maybe it's because you're too careful, right?

Su Shi comforted himself so much in his heart.

Who in this world has a deep hatred for himself, and wants to harm himself so much?

And is it the girl who bought Ning Wangfu, and did it to herself on the chassis of Ning Wangfu?

This man is so capable, how many times can he kill himself before he knows it! It's not a big deal.

Su Shi comforted himself in his heart, and then remembered that there were people like Su Chenniang in the world, but because he had no appetite, he never touched the things in the banquet again.

"Today is a big gift for my sister and Lu, and my grandmother is specially asking the boy to give a gift to my sister, disturbing the ladies and ladies to eat."

At this moment, a Qingyue male voice suddenly came from outside the flower hall where the ladies were dining.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yuanxiao, the prince of King Ning, smiled at the corner of his mouth, carried the wind with his clothes, held an object, and walked into the flower hall with dignity. (To be continued.) )
