Chapter 174: One Hundred Precautions
Qin Shujiu said, there is no need to do anything next, just wait for Liqing to come over and comfort. After all, Qin Shangshu was harmed this time, and Qin Shujiu in the palace couldn't get rid of it, and there were many people in the palace who took advantage of the situation to step on him, and Liqing didn't care much about this kind of palace affairs, but he also knew it in his heart.
Now that the case is Zhaoxue, how can he not be relieved.
This kind of relief is also common, and it doesn't make people feel it, but if it sighs, it doesn't help Qin Shujiu to get rid of it, but it restores his grace. Since Qin Shujiu is suspected in his heart, then the compensation that should be given after the case is Zhaoxue is also wanted. Although Qin Shujiu didn't care much about this, it was enough for Ming Dao to believe in her, but Liqing still felt guilty in her heart, and the gift of grace and pearls was naturally indispensable, even the number of times she went to this bell broken palace was more than before, but it also made others look at her with envy.
Qin Tianhao was trapped before, and all the palaces in the palace were afraid to avoid suspicion when they saw Qin Shujiu, but Master Weng showed a bit of sisterhood, and at that time, he even visited Zhong Sha Palace and accompanied her to say a few words. When she was down, Master Weng came very diligently, and everything was thoughtful, but it also made people think that Su Die's matter had something to do with her, that is, the hook kiss incense in Princess Leping, and it also made them think about whether they thought too much. After all, Master Weng can embroider and give it to them, and who knows if he will also embroider and give it to others because he likes it.
The falling situation is treated with sincerity in every way, but after Zhaoxue, Liqing returned to favor, but the number of times it came was less, so that people felt that they were avoiding suspicion.
When he was in trouble, he could see whether the love was true, and Master Weng's help this time also made Nanzhi fall a lot of good impressions, that is, today I saw the bluegrass sent by Master Weng, and I also gladly accepted it and put it in the bed. While tidying up the orchid grass, Nan Zhi said: "This Weng Cai has always looked like a small family, but he didn't think that the vision is also excellent, look at this orchid, it grows so well, if the flowers really bloom, I don't know how far the fragrance can spread." ”
Nanzhi has always been a good orchid, but he saw that the orchid sent by Master Weng was excellent. This heart could not help but rejoice, since even the person who sent the flowers also had a good impression. It was clear that Nanzhi was happy, and after hearing her praise, Qin Shujiu responded with a smile: "Look at your joy, if you are really happy." Why don't you just leave it in your house? ”
When the words fell, he saw Nanzhi looking back, and then said: "Sister, don't be joking, this is Weng Cairen's thoughts, if it is left in my house, how can my sister explain it next time Weng Cairen comes." ”
It is rare to feel that Weng Cairen also has a bit of a sister's heart when he treats Qin Shujiu. Seeing Nan Zhi say this, Qin Shujiu pursed his lips and smiled: "Since it was sent by others, as you said, if you put it in your room, you will inevitably make people think about it, and the teacher has always liked to think about it, so don't make her think about these little things." But ......"
"But what?" Seeing that Qin Shujiu's words suddenly changed, Nan Zhi immediately asked, and after asking, he saw that the smile on Qin Shujiu's lips deepened a little more, and then he said out loud: "But there is one thing you just said wrong." ”
"What?" After asking in confusion, Qin Shujiu replied: "It's this orchid." After speaking, he got up and walked to Nanzhi's side, raised his hand and stroked the unfolded leaves of the bluegrass in front of him, Qin Shujiu said with a smile: "This bluegrass is not Weng Cairen's thoughts. It's Dream Xiuyuan's. ”
Although the orchid grass is almost the same, but the flowers and plants in Chen Shuyi's palace are different from the side, this orchid grass grows so well, and at first glance, you can know that it is not the craftsmanship of the gardener in the inner servant, so only Meng Xiuyuan's Ruyi Palace can raise such a bright thing. also looked at it with a smile, Qin Shujiu said: "I'm afraid that the master will go to the Ruyi Palace one day, Meng Xiuyuan saw that she liked it and gave it away, and she used it to borrow flowers to offer Buddha." ”
"If it is Meng Xiuyuan, it is not uncommon to raise such a rare thing, but then it should be said, the temperament in this palace is really the best in Meng Xiuyuan. If you are polite to anyone, you are also generous. Although my sister felt that this orchid grass was a thing in Meng Xiuyuan's palace, Weng Cairen could also see that she treated her sister as a true sister, and now she looks at it like this. At the beginning, because of Su Chongyuan's matter, Weng Cairen was suspicious, but we were too careful. ”
They always felt that Su Die's matter might have been done by Master Weng, but now that everything was investigated, there was no clue, but the more they investigated, the more they felt that they were suspicious. Especially the help of the fallen master Weng this time, it made Nanzhi eliminate the last layer of doubt in his heart.
She felt that Master Weng should have been wronged, but Qin Shujiu's thoughts were not easy to guess.
Neither said nor spoke. Just touching the unfolded bluegrass, Qin Shujiu turned around with a smile and then sat down with a book to continue reading.
The number of times Liqing came to Zhong Sha Palace is a lot, that is, the orchid grass sent by Master Weng under the accompaniment of Liqing is also opened, and the orchid grass that comes out of Mengxiuyuan Palace is different from ordinary orchids. Although the bluegrass is not conducive to sleep, and it will inevitably be excited when it is heard for a long time, the bluegrass cultivated by Meng Xiuyuan is also a strange thing, the fragrance is clear and not excited, but it will not make people hear it for a long time and can't sleep at night. Because the fragrance of this orchid grass is extremely quiet, Liqing is even more happy to come to her place, that is, sometimes even dinner is also used in the Zhong Sha Palace, and it is also called Zhong Sha Palace's busy.
Because of the return of grace, the small kitchen is naturally also a heavy reward, that is, for His Majesty's dinner, the cook in the small kitchen of Zhong Sha Palace has also been thinking hard recently, that is, I am afraid that which dish does not meet His Majesty's mind, and then it will be a serious crime. The small kitchen's mind is exhausted, but this Liqing is diligent all day long, even this body should be supplemented, and in order to make His Majesty healthy, Qin Shujiu also ordered the small kitchen to make more tonic food.
On this day, he was thinking about how to prepare a dinner banquet for Liqing, and Master Weng also came to the door, and when he saw that Master Weng came, Qin Shujiu didn't think much about it, but stopped to talk to her. When he entered the palace, he saw Qin Shujiu's eyebrows frowning, and Master Weng paid attention to it and then said, "What is Sister Miao thinking?" ”
Qin Shujiu smiled and replied after the inquiry: "I didn't think about anything, it's just that Your Majesty has been working civil affairs recently, and dinner is always tasteless, but I have eaten less and less in the past few days." The dragon body of His Majesty is related to Sheji, how can it be born like this, I am really worried in my heart, but I can't make a novel meal in the small kitchen, so I am annoyed. ”
Food is the foundation of human beings, and if it is not in line with food, then the human body will not be properly raised. It also made this Qin Shujiu worry about this matter. Master Weng sat aside for a pause, and after a slight pause, Master Weng said: "If my sister is bitter and has no novel dishes, my sister and I have a dish here, and Your Majesty likes it very much." ”
"Oh? What does my sister know about Xià happy? After listening to Master Weng's words, Qin Shujiu was also interested at the moment. It was to open his mouth to ask, and after the inquiry, Master Weng said: "Exactly, my sister's ancestral family has a dish, which was taught by my mother before entering the palace, and it can be regarded as my unique master." The medicinal food tastes fresh and mellow. The food and medicine used is also excellent, because it was stewed in Majesty Xià a few days ago, and Majesty Xià liked it very much, so he ordered his sister to stew and send it to Yanying Palace. ”
Recently, Master Weng often sent stews to the Yanying Palace, but I heard the man mention it, Liqing liked it very much, and now when I saw Master Weng mention it, it seemed that he intended to tell her the secret recipe of this stew. Although Qin Shujiu was also a little interested in her heart, she didn't dare to learn such a meal casually and served it in Liqing, and immediately said: "This is the only way for my sister's ancestral family, how can my sister learn it, you can take it yourself." ”
It was also the words that fell, that is, when I saw Master Weng, he took her hand. Then he said: "Sister and sister, why do you need to divide you and me, Sister Su is gone, and now only we are left in this palace to support each other, if we have to share you and mine even with our sisters, there is still love between these sisters." ”
This sentence is true, that is, even the heart and lungs are about to be taken out and given to Qin Shujiu to take a closer look, Master Weng is really afraid that Qin Shujiu will have a relationship with her, that is, there are no sisters in this harem who can support each other. also saw that her words had already been said to this, Qin Shujiu didn't want to say anything, so he also accepted her kindness.
Master Weng, the Fang Zi of the medicinal diet, finally stayed. However, for the recipe in his hand, Qin Shujiu still couldn't rest easy, so he looked at the recipe in his hand and thought for a long time, Qin Shujiu asked Nanzhi to call the cook in the small kitchen. When he got the order, he led the cook into the inner bed, and handed the recipe he got from Master Weng in his hand to the cook, Qin Shujiu asked.
"Is this recipe for medicinal food proper?" Gong took the recipe and then looked at it carefully, the cook nodded and said, "If you go back to Jieyu, this is indeed a good recipe for replenishing qi, such a good recipe." Who's the hand? ”
"You don't have to ask who gave it, it's such a piece of medicinal food, do you think you will like it in the current situation?" After asking, the cook said, "This meal is very much in line with His Majesty's preferences, and it should be pleased." ”
"Since I will be happy, I will add this dish today."
Since it is the meaning of Qin Shujiu, of course the cook should be, not to mention that this is indeed a good recipe, and it is the right thing to do, and then the cook retreated back to the small kitchen to be busy with today's dinner.
At dinner, Liqing came as invited, and the recipe offered by Master Weng really won Liqing's praise, but he also drank a few bowls in a row, and it was also a time when Qin Shujiu looked at Liqing's appetite during this time. Seeing that Liqing was very happy, Qin Shujiu was also happy in his heart, and when he ordered the small kitchen to offer all the medicine, he also asked Liqing to be healthy.
It was after the meal that he chatted with Qin Shujiu because he was worried about the court affairs recently, and he was able to relax and talk after the matter was done today. It was also with Qin Shujiu who sat on the couch in the hall, and Liqing smiled and said: "The orchids in your palace are different from the other places, and even the fragrance of the flowers is quiet, which makes my heart feel smooth." Seeing Qin Shujiu, he smiled slightly, and then said.
"Your Majesty can like it, that's the blessing of the concubine." I don't know if it's because the moonlight is too soft tonight, or because the bluegrass in this palace is too quiet, the more Liqing looks at it, the more he feels that Qin Shujiu makes him excited, and when he smiles softly, he slowly stepped forward, and when he was about to kiss Fang Ze, he saw Qin Shujiu and exclaimed.
It was also Qin Shujiu's exclamation that brought back Liqing's mind, that is, he felt a slight heat at the tip of his nose, Liqing raised his head and touched that place, and it was after this touch that Liqing saw the blood on his fingers.
Liqing's nose was bleeding, this was a big deal, and immediately Qin Shujiu ordered someone to urgently pass on the imperial doctor, and even Empress Zheng and the second concubine Shude were also alarmed. Even the Queen Mother, who had long ignored the affairs of the Later Dynasty, somehow heard about it and drove to Zhong Sha Palace.
After Empress Zheng helped the Queen Mother into the palace, the imperial doctor had already taken the pulse for Liqing, and when she saw the Queen Mother enter the palace, everyone in the bedroom bowed to Fu'an, and she didn't have the heart to pay attention to these false courtesies, and the Queen Mother went straight to Liqing and then looked at the imperial doctor and asked: "How is the emperor's body." After inquiry, the imperial physician replied: "Empress Dowager, Your Majesty's dragon body is damaged, although it is not a major problem, but it is due to improper eating and drinking, which causes lung fire and liver fire, and even nosebleeds in the lungs. ”
"Lung gas rushing? The emperor's diet has always been reasonable, how can a good life become angry, who did the emperor's recent meal, and brought it to the mourning family. "When I heard that there was a problem with the diet, how could the Queen Mother calm down, even if she was killed. And Qin Shujiu on the side also felt uneasy the more he listened, half of Liqing had eaten here recently, if something went wrong with the meal, she would definitely not be able to get out of it here.
Because of the queen mother's decree, the cook in the small kitchen asked people to be escorted into the palace, how would he not think that making his own meals would make the holy dragon body unsafe, and the chef was also afraid at the moment, that is, he did not dare to hide it, and all the meals distributed today were served, and he called the dishes all on the table, and those dishes were also brought into the palace to be carefully inspected by the imperial doctor.
After a strict investigation of each dish, the imperial doctor faced Liqing and the Queen Mother and bowed and said, "Back to Your Majesty, Queen Mother." There was no problem with the dinner I had today. As soon as these words fell to Qin Shujiu, he breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did he sigh slightly, but the imperial doctor took another sentence and said: "But Your Majesty's lack of safety in the dragon body today is indeed because of Zhong Broken Palace." ”
As soon as these words came out, people were stunned, especially the palace people in Zhong Sha Palace, who were even more shocked, that is, after hearing this, the queen was directly solemn and then asked: "What do you mean by this?" Hurry up? "The queen mother's inquiry is backward, and the imperial doctor should be the way.
"Empress Dowager, Zhong Shagong's cook's dinner list is harmless, not only harmless but also has the miraculous effect of replenishing qi, it stands to reason that it should be the best food medicine, but it is just ......"
"Just what?"
"It's just that in addition to this medicinal diet, this orchid has been prepared in this palace tonight." After speaking, he looked at the bluegrass placed in the hall, because of the words of the imperial doctor, everyone looked at it, and after seeing it, the imperial doctor said: "Ordinary bluegrass is not allowed to be put into the palace, because the aroma of bluegrass will disturb the sleep, but the bluegrass in this palace is rare, not only will it not disturb the night's sleep, but it can make people happy." Although it is also a rare thing, this orchid grass is the most taboo to use with the incense, otherwise it will make people overflow with evil fire, and then become a disorderly thing. ”
The most taboo thing in the palace is this kind of confused thing, not to mention that such a thing also hurt Liqing's body, and immediately the queen mother's anger was sheng, that is, she slapped the table angrily and then reprimanded sharply, the queen mother said: "Bold Jieyu, you dare to do such a filthy and evil thing in this palace, you are guilty." ”
This angry rebuke made Qin Shujiu kneel down and plead, and said that he was wronged in front of the Queen Mother, but now the evidence is complete, that is, she really wronged Liqing and damaged the dragon body, and this matter has nothing to do with her.
The Empress Dowager's decree, even if it is Liqing, cannot be reversed, that is, Qin Shujiu was severely punished, demoted to a beauty, and meditated in the claustrophobic pavilion. (To be continued.) )
