Chapter 14: Misunderstanding
Yan Da ate the pastry, and didn't seem to eat anything, but felt a little sweet, looked at it carefully, looked up at Concubine Rou and said, "This is peach cake?" There is a reason why he asked, generally the peach crisp is soft and comfortable after entering the mouth, and the aftertaste is sweet.
However, the peach crisp that I ate was more than soft, but it did not have a sweet aftertaste, and even had a hint of bitterness.
Concubine Rou looked at the remaining pastries in the box and said, "Yes! I'm eating well. ”
Yan Da picked up another piece and tasted it, and it felt the same as the previous one, it seems that this is not his hallucination or taste problem.
At this time, the little girl was called out by an aunt, saying that she was taking Concubine Rou's Chinese medicine, Yan glanced at the little girl, the little girl's eyes avoided him, and her face was panicked.
Yan Da couldn't say a kind of uneasiness, but he really couldn't see anything, and in desperation, he put down the things and was about to leave, who knew that by chance, as soon as he went out, he knocked down the hot medicinal soup and rolled out of it, and Yan Da subconsciously took a look at it.
The little maid immediately explained: "This is the fat sea, and Niangniang has a bad throat recently, so she has been eating it." Yan Da looked back at Concubine Rou and saw that she nodded, and Yan Da didn't say anything anymore.
However, is this really a fat sea?
Walking out of the cold palace, he kicked and was restless for a long time, but he still didn't know what he was worried about, sitting on the railroad of Jiangyu Corridor that must pass from the cold palace to the palaces, staring blankly at the delicate flowers in the garden.
As soon as this spring comes, the flowers bloom many and luxuriantly, and the gardeners in this palace are very attentive, and they will serve all the flowers well.
In the past, there was also a thing called A Hibiscus in a Fanbang that was introduced here, with the appearance of a hibiscus, but also known as the broken intestine grass, after planting it in the palace for a few months, because it had an addictive effect, it was dug up by Qiqi.
I remember that I had just entered the palace at that time, and I secretly hid a small fruit when they were digging.
"Brother, why are you lazy here?" Yan Jiu and Han Gu got down from the ceremony of worshiping the Buddha early, and they have been busy before and after, no, just now I gave a few palace ladies and sisters the Buddha beads presented by the monks, and on the way back to the Buddha, I met Yan Da who was still in a daze.
"Is the ceremony over?" Yan Da asked casually.
Yan Jiu nodded and smiled: "It was supposed to be busy for a long time, but who knew that the six princes who went out of the palace to visit the victims a few days ago came back, and the emperor let us end it early." "The emperor's preference for the six princes has always been unabated.
This also shows that the emperor has never let go of the concubine Rou Niangniang who is still in the deep palace, or maybe they really once really loved each other.
"Then Concubine Hua must be very happy, I remember that a few days ago, I saw Concubine Hua come to the Buddha to ask for a peace charm for the six princes." Yan Da said, put his hand on Yan Jiu's shoulder and said with a smile: "In a few more years, Xiao Jiu will be taller than me." ”
"It's like you're not long." Yan Jiu smiled, looked at Yan Da's empty hand, and hit it with a snap, and said in a low voice: "You see that you put Aunt Han's box with Concubine Rou Niangniang again, and you haven't gone to get it back." Yan Da looked down and saw that it was really true, smiled awkwardly, got up and ran back.
At this time, several palace maids behind him followed an older aunt and walked over, and Yan Jiu respectfully shouted "Hello aunt".
The aunt stopped and looked at Yan Jiu and smiled, "It's you!" "The one who spoke was Concubine Hua's personal aunt Jin Yu, who had been following Concubine Hua since she married the emperor, she was calm and generous, and she was also a delicate person when she spoke.
Now she is wearing a water hexagram Qianqiu skirt, holding a lot of food in her hand and walking towards the palace of Concubine Hua, she knows Yan Jiu only because Yan Jiu has helped her find a bracelet and has not asked for payment, at least Yan Jiu thinks so.
"Yes, auntie, these foods were prepared by Concubine Hua for the six princes, right?" Yan Jiu knew very well that Concubine Hua cared about Jiang Junchen, and also understood that although Concubine Hua was not well-known.
But it's not a soft persimmon, plus there is a century-old Confucian general of the Hua clan to support it, I'm afraid that only she dares to say "no" in front of the queen in this palace
Saying that, my aunt took a pastry from the small brocade box in the hand of the palace maid on the side and handed it to Yan Jiu and said with a smile: "Those who come to see have a share, so they will be given to you by the mother, and the mother is happy today." ”
Concubine Hua is indeed very happy today, first Jiang Junchen returned to the palace early, and the emperor stayed for dinner, she is really happy.
Even today's Buddha ceremony specially held for the prince's blind date ended hastily because of the return of her adopted son, which really gave her a face. Saying that, Jin Yu walked away with his feet raised, with joy in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows. The master is happy, and her mood is naturally not bad.
Before Yan Jiu could put the pastry in his mouth, he saw Yan Dalian running over with the box, and when he saw Yan Jiu, he asked, "Jiu, is the fat sea smooth and round?" ”
Yan Jiu smiled and replied, "Didn't I make fat sea tea for Aunt Han a few days ago, what you see is round and round." ”
Yan Da was stunned for a moment, looked at the thing he was holding in his hand and said it was a fat sea, handed it to Yan Jiu, and asked, "What do you say this is?" ”
Yan Jiu looked down, she couldn't be more familiar with this thing, in the previous life, this was the thing she used to control her concubines, commonly known as A Hibiscus, which can make people addictive, short-term consumption can relieve pain and itching, but long-term consumption is a poison.
"Where did you get it from?"
"Cold Palace, Concubine Rou."
"What!"
She looked at Yan Da and several names popped up in her heart, Concubine Hua, the queen, or someone else?
"Nine, I think it's the queen." General Yan told Yan Jiu everything he saw today, Yan Jiu smiled faintly, it turns out that this queen is really smart with such an abacus, killing two birds with one stone, ...... shouldn't be killing three birds with one stone!
"What do you want? Shall we remind Concubine Rou? Yan Da asked.
"No need." She looked up and whispered a few words into Yanda.
Yan Da looked at her incredulously and asked, "Do you really want to do this?" Yan Jiu nodded firmly, and Yan Da had to listen to her, because he had no other way.
After lunch, Jiang Junchen really came to the cold palace on time to visit Concubine Rou, and at this time, Concubine Rou was groggily asleep, and she didn't say a few words to her son, just yelling that she had a sore throat and wanted to drink medicine.
Jiang Junchen asked people to get the medicine, holding the concubine who was just about to hand it to him, but he was suddenly bumped by Yan Da who broke in, and the whole bowl of soup and medicine was spilled, at this time, Jiang Junchen looked at Yan Da, and his face was not particularly good.
"The six princes are really embarrassed, I came in to get the brocade box from our Buddha feeding place." As he spoke, he pointed to the brocade box on the table and said embarrassedly.
Jiang Junchen didn't say anything, he knew that the little girl named Yan Jiu was still good to his mother, and often came to send some things, plus the Yan family and Concubine Rou were cousins.
At this time, a lot of the decoction on the ground was sucked away, and there was nothing at all, Yan Da threw away the thing he took out in the morning while no one was paying attention, and said in surprise: "How can there be medicine residue here, it's really careless." "He broke a few petals of that thing, and it really looked like a medicine residue.
When Jiang Junchen saw this, his whole body suddenly turned cold, and he asked sharply, "Who came up with the prescription?" ”
The palace maid didn't think for a moment and said, "It was the imperial doctor invited by Concubine Hua to treat Niangniang." ”
Jiang Junchen got up and left, walking very fast, he was very familiar with the fruit of A Hibiscus, it was because he was sick that he ate A Hibiscus, and then he had an addictive reaction, the emperor dug it up, he didn't expect his adoptive mother to use this to harm his mother, he was very angry.
And the little palace maid is also at a loss, this is obviously not the time, the addiction on Concubine Rou has not yet fallen, how can it be so, I remember that after I made a mistake in the morning and forgot to fish for the medicine residue, she just fished it very clean!
"Girl, you're saying a good thing!" At this time, Yan Jiu, who had been waiting outside for a long time, walked in from outside the door and looked at her coldly, this compliment was really uncomfortable.
