Chapter 285: The Death of the Orange Cat
Seeing this, the people present dared to be angry about Jing Hanyu's behavior, and the emperor didn't say anything, but after starting, everyone picked up chopsticks and ate them.
Compared with their restraints, Yue Zhanyan and Jing Hanyu are not so restrained, as if they are casually at home.
A banquet was eaten for an hour and a half, and the palace maids kept shuttling in it, and Yue Zhanyan was also full under the feeding of Jing Hanyu.
When she was full, she had the heart to look around, especially the emperor's side, she remembered that after the banquet, they all drank a bowl of soup at the end.
As soon as the emperor finished drinking, he had a burst of angina pectoris, his face turned pale, and even the prince didn't find out what was going on.
Yue Zhanyan felt that the last problem was in the bowl of soup, although she didn't know what the reason was, she felt that there should be no mistake.
The last dish is the soup, which is said to be made with Cordyceps, which is a very healthy soup, of course, this Cordyceps soup is prepared by the imperial physician Sun of the Imperial Palace.
Cordyceps is a traditional Chinese medicine, but as a dietary therapy, it is also a good dish, and many Chinese herbs can be used to stew soups, and it is also very nourishing.
But Cordyceps is expensive, not to mention the homes of ordinary people, even the homes of ministers of the DPRK and China are very rare.
Jing Hanyu seems to have some at home, but there are not many, and she didn't ask specifically.
After the cordyceps soup was served, the other dishes on the table were also removed, and when this soup was served, Yue Zhanyan did not drink it immediately.
The emperor said: "This tonic soup made of Cordyceps, I also taste it for the first time, it is said that this Cordyceps is not easy to come by, and it is still collected by the prince from the edge of southern Xinjiang, which is very precious. ”
"Today, I am fortunate to have everyone taste this cordyceps soup with me, what is the difference."
In the tone, there is no lack of appreciation, and it can be said that it is their honor to be able to get so many cordyceps and use them to make soup.
When the emperor spoke, everyone present was very moved, and the emperor's treatment of his courtiers was actually not thin.
Such precious herbs are generally not taken out easily, and it can only be said that the emperor still thinks about them in his heart.
Yue Zhanyan glanced at it, especially the princes and princesses of the harem, their eyes looked very excited, but they didn't expect that not only did they see their father, but their father was still such a kind person.
Yue Zhanyan pursed her lips, she didn't feel much, it was just a way for the emperor to control his ministers.
"You don't have to be restrained, you can taste it."
The emperor spoke again, and the people below picked up the soup in front of him and drank it, and after drinking it, they were all full of praise.
Not to mention that the imperial chef in the palace is powerful, the tastes of the masters in the palace are different, and if you want to save your life, you can't study more.
The emperor also picked up the soup, scooped a little with a soup spoon, and was about to drink it, when suddenly, Yue Zhanyan said, "Wait a minute." ”
Yue Zhanyan's hand stretched out, everyone looked at her, even the emperor was puzzled, so he put down the spoon.
Yue Zhanyan didn't know what kind of wind she was smoking, so she couldn't help but speak.
"Yan'er girl, what do you have to say?"
From the beginning of the palace banquet to the present, Yue Zhanyan has not said a word, either eating, or staring at the dancing girl, looking silly and innocent.
Gu Changheng paid a lot of attention to her, but her heartless appearance made him feel much better when he saw it.
This will make her speak, could it be that she has something to say, this girl, but the master who does not play cards according to common sense, but he is very interested and wants to see what she has to say.
Everyone thinks she is unreasonable, and even Jing Hanyu doesn't know what she wants to do, but the emperor doesn't have any blame on his face, so it's not easy for them to say much, and the sacred heart is unpredictable.
"That...... I, no, the courtiers think that the emperor's bowl is so beautiful, courtiers, can you take a look? ”
Yue Zhanyan almost bit her tongue when she spoke, but she said it in public, and she couldn't find a better reason.
Without waiting for the emperor's consent, she walked over, and Jing Hanyu did not stop her, but looked at her for fear that something would happen to her.
Their position was very close to the position of the emperor and queen, Yue Zhanyan walked a few steps to arrive, and then picked up the bowl in front of the emperor, as if he really liked it.
"Presumptuous, how can the prime minister's wife be so unruly."
It wasn't until Yue Zhanyan had already walked in front of the emperor that she held the bowl in her hand that the queen reacted and scolded her.
Yue Zhanyan was so frightened by her that her hands shook, and the bowl she was holding fell directly to the ground, and it was broken.
Yue Zhanyan seemed to be scared stupid, and cried directly: "Wow woo woo, I broke the bowl, what should I do, I won't be cut off my head, wow woo, big brother, Yan'er doesn't look like she was cut off her head." ”
"You, it's unreasonable, the emperor's things, how can you touch them at will."
The queen's angry face turned green, I really don't know how this person was so bold and openly came to take the emperor's things.
And the people below, some are worried, such as Yue Shangshu and Yue Zhanlin, etc., are more optimistic about watching good shows, and some are gloating.
For example, Shen Changqing, Yelu Man'er and others, they couldn't stop thinking in their hearts, they couldn't live if they did their own thing, and they didn't need her to take action in person, so they killed themselves.
Jing Hanyu frowned slightly, thinking that she was not such a person who didn't understand the rules, but she didn't know what she wanted to do.
But no matter what, he had to make sure that she didn't have an accident, and when Yue Zhanyan heard the queen's majestic words, she was so frightened that she cried even more, and she couldn't even speak clearly.
"I'm not...... Deliberately...... Deliberately, you suddenly ...... Suddenly out of nowhere, I, I, I was scared...... ......"
"I still want to quibble, come here, Yue Zhanyan will commit a crime, drag it out and kill it with a cane."
The queen gave orders, and Jing Hanyu stood up unslowly and said: "Queen Mother, Yan'er is an unintentional fault, and it is also my lax discipline, Yan'er's fault, I am willing to be punished on my behalf." ”
He said it lightly, as if the queen said that the cane was child's play, and the emperor has not said a word until now.
In this matter, an orange cat walked with elegant steps, it lowered its head and licked the soup that the moon had turned over on the ground, and even the cordyceps did not let go.
Except for Yue Zhanyan sitting on the ground and seeing it, no one else paid attention, and just after the orange cat finished eating, it suddenly meowed, fell directly to the ground, convulsed a few times, and died.
"Ah...... Cats, cats, dead, up. ”
Yue Zhanyan suddenly screamed, and everyone present heard the cat meow, but they didn't know where the cat came from and where it barked.
But Gu Changheng heard it very clearly, the cat was at his feet, he looked down and saw that except for the broken bowl on the ground, the things in the bowl were gone, and the cat died not far away.
