Chapter 309: Tea Ceremony
Chu Qingli was still looking ahead, and after catching a glimpse of Du Qinghe, he immediately asked, "What do you see?" ”
Du Qinghe looked at the teapot on the side with a nervous expression, glanced at the opposite side, and then attached to Chu Qingli's ear and said, "She put medicine in the tea here." ”
Hearing this, Chu Qingli didn't seem to be too surprised, she had already seen these techniques. Besides, which head of Shen Qiuyu can come up with any other strategies to deal with her?
"Good!" Chu Qingli watched the performance below and clapped his hands.
Immediately turned his head, asked Du Qinghe to pick up the teapot, and walked in the direction of Shen Qiuyu. Since the maid next to her came back, Shen Qiuyu looked at Chu Qingli more vigilantly, but she was afraid of being discovered by her, so her eyes were dodgy, so that people could know that there was a ghost in their hearts at a glance.
Chu Qingli walked over and walked towards Shen Qiuyu, Shen Qiuyu stared at her intently, sweating a little in his hands, worried that his plan had not succeeded, and he would be discovered by Chu Qingli.
But when Chu Qingli walked over, he didn't have an angry look on his face, but instead smiled heaps, although there was a bit of hypocrisy in it, but he really didn't come up and asked. Therefore, Shen Qiuyu was lucky in his heart, hoping that Chu Qingli didn't find out, but just happened to come over.
Chu Qing walked in front of Shen Qiuyu from Shi Shiran, turned around and gave Du Qinghe a look, Du Qinghe immediately understood in his heart, picked up the teacup that Shen Qiuyu had just drunk, and poured her a cup of tea from the teapot he brought.
Chu Qingli handed the teacup to Shen Qiuyu, and said to Shen Qiuyu with a calm expression: "Now that I am pregnant, there is no need to dwell on the past things, today I salute you for this cup of tea, how about the two of us in the future with well water and not river water?" ”
Shen Qiuyu stared at the teacup in Chu Qingli's hand, there was still some heat on the water, and a few pieces of tea were floating on it alone, ordinary Shen Qiuyu's mood at the moment, this tea was clearly drugged by himself, I don't know if Chu Qingli came to serve tea now, whether he really didn't know, or pretended not to know.
Seeing that Shen Qiuyu didn't respond for a long time, Chu Qingli wiped a smile and continued, "What? Isn't Princess Chen going to reconcile with me? ”
The maid beside Shen Qiuyu was quite clever, and hurriedly poured Shen Qiuyu a cup of tea again and stuffed it into her hand, "Princess Mu, don't blame, our young lady is not used to drinking other tea, and the tea leaves in this kettle are still brought by us." ”
Chu Qingli lowered his head and smiled shallowly, but his hand was not withdrawn, "Sure enough, it is the eldest lady of the Xuanguo Mansion, which is extraordinary, but now I respect you for this cup of tea, even if Princess Chen is not used to drinking it, she can barely take a sip, so as not to make me feel that you are still unwilling to reconcile with me." Chu Qingli's eyes were full of water, but he looked very aggrieved.
Shen Qiuyu touched the teacup in his hand with Chu Qingli, raised his head and drank all the tea in the cup, and then said, "Then I will drink it." ”
Chu Qingli withdrew his hand with a smile, and Du Qinghe immediately reached over and grabbed the teacup. Chu Qingli turned his head and instructed Du Qinghe and said, "Since Princess Chen is not used to drinking other tea, then you go and make a new pot, I will definitely pay tribute to Princess Chen for this tea today." ”
I don't know if I was angered by Chu Qingli's persistence, or because of my own weak heart, Shen Qiuyu looked at Du Qinghe's back as he turned around and was about to leave, and suddenly smashed the cup in his hand, "I don't want to drink your toasted tea." ”
Chu Qingli only took a step back, not frightened, but Du Qinghe was too nervous, looking her up and down carefully. Chu Qingli gently turned to Du Qinghe, walked in front of Shen Qiuyu, looked directly into her eyes and asked, "Does Princess Chen not want to drink or dare to drink?" ”
Being asked so directly by Chu Qingli, Shen Qiuyu's heart skipped a beat, and he pretended to look back at Chu Qingli calmly, and said stubbornly: "What do I dare not drink, it's just that I hate you to the core, how can I easily reconcile with you?" Have you ever thought about a birthday child? As long as I live for one day, you will not think about it. ”
Shen Qiuyu is now direct, and said all the words in his heart. The maid beside her saw that the people around her had noticed them, and quickly pulled Shen Qiuyu's sleeve, and reminded in a low voice: "Princess, stop your anger, don't let others see the joke." ”
This sentence "princess" reminded Shen Qiuyu that now she is no longer a young lady in the boudoir, and she should think about her husband's family when she marries a wife, and she must not damage the face of the eldest prince. Thinking of this, Shen Qiuyu took a deep breath and calmed down the anger in his heart, his eyes were arrogant, as if he was very disdainful of talking to Chu Qingli.
"You go, we don't have anything to say." Shen Qiuyu turned sideways and didn't look at Chu Qingli, but the hands under his sleeves were tightly clenched together, hiding the panic in his heart.
But Chu Qingli did not leave because of this, but took a step forward and stood beside Shen Qiuyu. His eyes just looked downstairs, but he said, "Princess Chen has nothing to say to me, but I want to ask Princess Chen for an explanation." ”
Shen Qiuyu's fists clenched tighter again, but the color on his face did not change. Instead, she snorted coldly, and said to Chu Qingli unhappily: "Ask me for an explanation, I'm afraid you're looking for the wrong person." ”
Listening to Shen Qiuyu's words, Chu Qingli made a look of sudden realization, "Yes, yes, you see, I made a mistake, I shouldn't ask Princess Chen for an explanation, the person I should ask for an explanation is the maid next to you." Chu Qingli said, turning his head and looking at the maid on the side.
The maid was so frightened that she took a step back, but after thinking about it, no one saw it when she was drugged, Chu Qingli should not be able to find out that she was drugged in such a short time, maybe she was just bluffing and trying to scare them.
The maid calmed down for a moment, then lowered her head and asked Chu Qingli, "I don't know where the slave maid offended Princess Mu, and the slave and maid apologize to King Mu's mansion here." ”
"You're obedient, you admit your mistake first." Chu Qingli took a step forward, stretched out his hand and picked up the maid's chin, looked left and right, and said with a sigh: "The appearance is beautiful, but I didn't expect the heart to be so vicious." ”
The maid was still pretending to be stupid, and only said that she didn't know what Chu Qingli was talking about. Chu Qingli raised his eyebrows and beckoned to Du Qinghe, and Du Qinghe brought the teapot over.
Chu Qingli tested the water temperature, but it was not too hot. She pinched the maid's mouth with one hand, forcing her to open it, and with the other hand, she held the teapot and poured it into the maid's mouth.
The maid's pupils dilated instantly, and she struggled desperately, even if the tea was in her mouth, she didn't want to swallow it.
