"Yes, Queen." Master Li walked forward quickly, carefully examined the fish soup, and dipped some of his fingers into his mouth from time to time to taste it. "Back to the queen, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with this fish soup."

"Really? Master Li, can you check it out? It's about the royal heirs, but you can't be sloppy. Xianxiao's tone was more serious than ever.

"Weichen, Weichen......" The imperial doctor trembled with fright, and couldn't figure out which one the queen was singing in her heart.

Xianxiao didn't speak, stood up, looked at the fish soup carefully, and suddenly said, "Xiao Shunzi, you go to the imperial dining room and call the imperial kitchen to the palace." Remember, call the chef who knows how to cook fish! ”

"Yes, Queen!" Xiao Shunzi turned around and ran out, and after a while, he ran back with a cook.

"See the Queen!" The cook was sweating all over his face, and his heart was uneasy, and he didn't know what the queen was anxious to do, so he knelt in front of Xianxiao as soon as he came in.

At this time, many concubines rushed to hear the news, and the hall of Qingmeng Pavilion was full of people from various palaces, and everyone watched with the mentality of watching the play, and talked in a whisper. Xianxiao also asked Xiao Shunzi to put the half pot of fish soup on the table, and let those curious concubines look at it one by one.

"Hongu asks you, what ingredients do you need to make mullet soup?" Xianxiao stared at the imperial kitchen in front of him.

"Back to the queen's mother, the general mullet soup does not require many ingredients, mullet cut into slices, the fish head can be fried with oil first, simmer for half an hour, put some ginger, green onions, rice wine in the soup, and sometimes add some red dates. In addition, you can also add some other ingredients to the fish soup, the more common ones are to add a little bit of sawa, urus, mulberry white bark, perilla and almonds. Of course, you can also make mullet winter melon soup. The imperial chef thought about it for a moment and said casually.

"Is there another way?"

"It is said that people in the Jiangnan area also use pickled sauerkraut to make mullet soup, but this is not generally done in the palace."

"Have you ever heard of boiling mullet soup with wolfberries?"

"The minions haven't heard of it."

"Has anyone in the imperial dining room in this palace done this for the masters?"

"Absolutely not!"

"You go down, it's none of your business." Xianxiao nodded in satisfaction and let the imperial chef leave.

When Xiaolan heard this, she understood that there was a lot of wolfberries in this rain-soaked soup. However, the wolfberry is nourishing yin and aphrodisiac, and it will not lead to a slippery tire!

"Master Li, this palace is asking you now, is there anything wrong with this fish soup?" Xianxiao didn't look at the pouring rain, but only looked at the imperial doctor who was frowning and thinking on the side.

"Back to the queen's mother, this wolfberry is sweet and flat, and it is good for the liver, kidneys and lung meridians, although the mullet is cold and sweet, but the mullet soup nourishes the body and calms the wounds, it stands to reason that the two do not conflict, and will not cause a slippery tire. Weichen, Weichen, I really didn't come up with a reason. "The Imperial Doctor is a good man, and answers honestly.

Pouring rain didn't say anything the whole time, just looked at it all with cold eyes, like watching a joke. Although she already had a premonition that she was about to fall into a huge conspiracy, she didn't want to say anything.

"Can you eat anything else in this soup?" Xianxiao suddenly asked again.

"Wechen is stupid, and he has never tasted anything else." The imperial doctor was stunned, and Xiaolan was also stunned for a moment. It stands to reason that when this soup was delivered, it was just the right amount of warmth, and I was the first to taste it, and I really didn't eat anything else.

"Queen Mother, the concubine was a little unhappy a while ago, and Lord Wang of the Tai Hospital instructed the concubine to soak in water with those two or three safflowers every day, so the concubine has been very sensitive to the taste of this safflower recently." Suddenly, a concubine stepped forward and said this slowly, and everyone was shocked, even the pouring rain that had been calm couldn't help but look up at her.

"Sister means that there is saffron in this soup?" Xianxiao couldn't believe it. Of course, there is a safflower, so it is not difficult to explain why Nangong Meng slipped tires. However, there is no trace of red flowers in the soup that I saw, how can I talk nonsense?

When the concubine looked at the fish soup just now, she felt that she seemed to smell a little like that in the soup, but whether it was or not, the concubine was not sure. The stakes are very high, and the queen mother might as well order Lord Li to investigate it well. It has to be seen by everyone, that's the truth. As soon as the concubine's voice fell, the rain jumped in her heart, and she suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"But it seems impossible for this soup to have safflower?" Xianxiao looked suspicious, looking at Xiao Shunzi standing beside him. Xiao Shunzi was also clever, and immediately served a bowl of soup and handed it to the imperial doctor, and he put all the remaining wolfberries in the soup into the bowl.

The imperial doctor looked at the soup back and forth several times, but still didn't find any problems, and couldn't help but turn pale, looking at Xianxiao, like a drum in his heart.

"The queen mother, the concubine loves to eat a dish called stuffed tofu, that is, the tofu is gently cut with a knife, the meat is poured into it, and then the tofu is wrapped and put into the pot to fry, and the juice is poured after the most drows. This kind of stuffed tofu looks no different from ordinary tofu on the surface, but after you enter it, you know that there is a lot of mystery inside. Suddenly, another concubine next to her opened her mouth and successfully attracted everyone's attention.

The concubine looked at the imperial doctor and said word by word, "Master Li, do you think that if someone has the heart to hide some red flowers in this soup, where should she hide it?" Where might it be hidden? ”

"Hide, hide in this wolfberry." Speaking of which, if you still don't understand, it's weird. The imperial doctor trembled and picked up a wolfberry, pinched it open with his hands, and a few red flowers as thin as cow's hair were revealed.

Seeing that the wolfberry in the hand of the imperial doctor really pinched out the red flower, many people opened their eyes. Immediately, everyone looked at the pouring rain, and there was disdain, hatred, and schadenfreude in their eyes. The concubine who provided the clue was even more proud.

The imperial doctor continued to pinch the wolfberries in the bowl one by one, which was not too difficult, but the imperial doctor was so nervous that a cold sweat broke out on his head, and he raised his sleeves from time to time to wipe his head. When he pinched them one by one, everyone found that there were a few red flowers hidden in each wolfberry.

After the imperial doctor pinched the last one, he was already weak, and knelt on the ground with a plop, "Weichen is negligent, and please punish the queen!" ”

Xiaolan on the side also knelt down with tears in her eyes, "The slave was careless, I didn't expect that this wolfberry was hidden in the safflower that caused people to slip the fetus, which harmed my mother and the dragon." Please punish the queen! ”

"Get up! If it weren't for the two younger sisters' cleverness and a word of breaking the sky, I'm afraid that this palace would have been deceived. Xianxiao's face was painful, and he didn't seem to have reacted from the shock.
