Chapter 195: Poison
She looked at these pots, and the revenge in her heart grew even worse. The medicinal properties of these herbs are not quickly manifested after the medicine is integrated according to a certain proportion, but after a few hours, the poisoned person will immediately die within a few minutes.
The rain outside the window gradually stopped, but the raindrops that fell sounded like Qiao Niannian's heartbeat.
A few days later.
When he got up in the morning, Qiao Niannian found that the pots of herbs were all ripe. So, she forgot to wash, and walked directly to the basins, picked up the medicine mill on the side and began to grind it.
The speed of grinding this time was extremely fast, and when Yun'er knocked on the door and came in, she had already mixed the medicinal powder together in proportion, and then poured it into the medicine bottle in her hand.
"Madame, when did you get up? Why don't you call it a slave? ”
Seeing that the things in her hands were almost there, but the whole person was still messy, Yun'er asked with some concern.
And Qiao Niannian, because the thing was done, so he put his mind at ease, put it on the table, put his hand into the basin that Yun'er was preparing on the side, stirred the towel, and began to wash.
After washing and grooming, she put on the costume she had prepared long ago. Seeing Qiao Niannian like this, Yun'er counted the days, and it was almost over, she was about to enter the palace immediately, and she was sneaking into the palace.
"Ma'am, are you really okay like this? This palace is heavily guarded, and if it is discovered, it will be over! ”
Yun'er was very worried when she first learned that Qiao Niannian was going to enter the palace, but she didn't know the reason why Qiao Niannian sneaked into the palace.
And Qiao Niannian didn't care what she said, she would be very careful, even if she was discovered, it would have to wait until the person took those drugs to be discovered. At that time, she died without regrets.
After finishing the tidying, Qiao Niannian immediately got up, put the medicine bottle into his clothes, and then walked towards the door.
Because Yun'er had just left everyone, no one noticed when Qiao Niannian went out. After walking out of the mansion smoothly, Qiao Niannian walked quickly in the direction of his impression according to the impression he had when he went to the palace before.
And an hour later, she finally walked to the perimeter of the palace. However, when she got here, she found that the walls of this palace were much larger than she had imagined, and that there were officers and soldiers everywhere, so to speak, that even a bird flying in would be noticed.
Therefore, it is not possible to enter from a place where there are many officers and soldiers. Qiao Niannian thought about it carefully, and suddenly remembered that when the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet was held there before, in that garden, there seemed to be dog holes that could drill through thin people.
Because her body is very thin, she must be able to drill into the past.
So, she walked cautiously and briskly towards the other side. In order not to let the people in the palace find out, she deliberately slowed her steps lightly. And, with every step she takes, she listens carefully for sounds around her.
Because of his extremely high alertness, Qiao Niannian walked smoothly to the door of the last dog hole. And not long after she entered, she heard the sparse voice.
She immediately stopped and listened carefully to what the two men were saying.
And as soon as she heard it, she knew that the two voices that came were the maids in the palace. It's just that one of these two maids seems to be in Ning Guifei's palace.
Listening, Qiao Niannian felt lucky in his heart. Now she didn't need to look for it, this person just found the door by himself. Then it just saves a lot of steps and a lot of trouble.
The two voices were getting closer and closer, and Qiao Niannian covered her body with this tall plant, observing them in the gaps, identifying which one was Ning Guifei's palace maid. Then, when the maid approached her, just as she was lightning fast, Qiao Niannian immediately sprinkled the medicinal powder in front of their eyes.
And they didn't have time to see Qiao Niannian's face clearly, so they were stunned by this medicine. So, Qiao Niannian immediately dragged the two people aside, in order not to let passers-by find out.
Then, she took out the disguised things she carried with her, and immediately disguised herself into the appearance of the maids in the palace of Concubine Ning Ning, and after changing into her clothes, she put some poison in the mouths of the two maids, and then hid them nearby.
Then, Qiao Niannian walked on the road, she looked like an ordinary maid, but in her eyes, what was hidden was an extremely firm belief.
When she was cultivating seeds before, she had memorized the layout of the palace in her free time. And this is where she remembers it best.
"Lan'er? Why are you still here, the kitchen stuff has been taken to the mother's side? ”
After only a few steps, Qiao Niannian heard a voice from behind, and listening to this voice, it should have come from the mouth of a father-in-law. It turned out that these two maids were there to get things. It's just that the two of them shouldn't be in the same palace, and they ...... What did my father-in-law say just now about the "kitchen"?
Isn't that a great opportunity? The corners of Qiao Niannian's mouth curled slightly, if this is really the case, then God really favors her too much. So, Qiao Niannian changed his expression, his expression became very low, and then turned around. And the person in front of her was the father-in-law Gao she had seen many times before.
But father-in-law generally doesn't care about such trivial things, so should this maid go to the kitchen to get something very precious? Moreover, according to Qiao Niannian's guess, because Gonggong Gao is a person close to the emperor, this thing should be rewarded by the emperor.
"What are you doing! I told you to go to the kitchen! ”
Because Qiao Niannian didn't react at all, Gonggong Gao was a little angry, what kind of body did she look like this?
So Qiao Niannian immediately lowered his head, said yes again and again, and then walked quickly in the direction of the kitchen. And when Gonggong Gao saw her like this, he just sighed in disgust, because he didn't have a good impression of the maids in Ning Shang Palace.
And Qiao Niannian felt that he was almost running, so he took a quick look behind him and found that the tall father-in-law was no longer in the original place. So she slowed down, thinking about how to understand what the emperor gave Ning Guifei.
And when he was about to get to the kitchen, the sound coming from inside made Qiao Niannian immediately stop, and quickly hid to the side, listening to the conversation inside.
That's for the best.
"I heard that this was brought from the south. We have never seen this kind of thing before, and it must be very precious. ”
A maid spoke, her tone tinged with surprise and rarity. I could tell she must be looking at that thing now, and then talking to the maid next to her.
"Yes, this is not the food of our Great Flame Country. I heard that it goes through many processes before it is made into powder. After brewing with hot water, it looks like this. It is white and thin, and it looks like cow's milk. But the nutritional profile is very different. ”
The other maid responded to the original maid's words, and seemed to know more about the thing. And she paused for a moment, as if she was studying the bowl in great detail.
"Do you know what it's called?"
The maid from before broke the silence and asked. The other maid was just silent and stopped talking, and in Qiao Niannian's opinion, she should have reminded her with a look.
But just a little bit, Qiao Niannian was able to know the name of the thing. She frowned, and it seemed that she had only one way to break through now.
So, she came out of the place she had just come from, and went into the kitchen, pretending to be fresh.
And as soon as she walked in, she saw the two maids inside, and there were only two people in the back kitchen of Nuoda, which made Qiao Niannian have to raise her vigilance.
"Sister Lan'er, have you come to get the tonic of the concubine Niangniang? But strange, why didn't Sister Xiao Yi come over? ”。
A very symbolic-looking maid, when she saw Qiao Niannian coming in, she walked forward very enthusiastically and asked Qiao Niannian very kindly, but then it turned into a puzzled and puzzled expression, which made Qiao Niannian's heart move slightly.
"Maybe there's something delaying?"
The maid didn't doubt it for a long time, but just smiled at Qiao Niannian again, and her clear and simple eyes made the throbbing in Qiao Niannian's heart fade slightly.
And Qiao Niannian just smiled indifferently, but she didn't show any indifference, because isn't this what the maid should be? Moreover, she had learned that those maids in Concubine Ning's palace did not have a big shelf, because after all, her master was a difficult person to serve.
Qiao Niannian motioned for her to bring the tonic to her, and the maid seemed to suddenly remember, and immediately brought out the bowl of things from the incubator on the side.
The bowl was still steaming, and judging from the ancient heat preservation effect, it should have only been cooked for a long time.
She looked at the contents and had an answer in her mind, but she didn't know what it should have been called in ancient times. Because this thing, even if it was Qiao Niannian in ancient times, it was the first time he had seen it, so he didn't know what it was at all.
"Do you know what it's called? In this way, if the concubine asks, I will be able to reply to her. ”
Moving the bowl in front of him, and then putting it on the plate, Qiao Niannian clearly smelled a smell of coconut water. This action is not very obvious, so the two maids did not see it.
At first, I thought that the two maids would be surprised that she didn't know why, but instead of being surprised, they showed a very understanding look. The maid, who knew what this was, stepped forward and said to Qiao Niannian: "This is a rare thing brought over by the ambassador of Ran Kingdom, called Fruit Pattern Powder. You can't eat it directly, but soak it in boiling water, so that the taste can be fully revealed. ”
Hearing this, Qiao Niannian nodded. It's really God protecting her, and all this is not the same danger and danger as she thought. But from the beginning to the present, it has been smooth. However, it should not be taken lightly, after all, there is a lot of uncertainty in this palace, and if you let your guard down, you may fall into a trap.
So, since these two maids don't suspect it, it means that this Lan'er is just here to get things, and she doesn't know much about other things. Then Qiao Niannian was relieved, she didn't have the slightest difficulty about these.
"Thank you."
Qiao Niannian nodded to them again, signaling that she was leaving for Ningshang Palace now. And the two maids just sent her off with a smile, without a trace of suspicion.
Qiao Nian read out the back kitchen, and then walked towards Ning Shang Palace at a normal pace.
Because this place was her first time here, it was a little different from what she had learned. But after all, she understands very well, and her adaptability is already very strong, so these are nothing to her at all.
Because if she went directly to Ningshang Palace, there would be a lot of maids and people walking around on that road, so she took a long detour and arrived at a place where no one would enter or leave at all. After looking around and making sure that her surroundings were safe, she took the medicine bottle out of her clothes and sprinkled it all over the bowl.
