Chapter 372: The Banquet of the Palace

King Shin looked at him with an unfriendly look in his eyes, as if he was a thief.

Yesterday's Zhao Man just painted a light makeup, King Xin will see her sooner or later, at this time Tang Ning has nothing to hide, and said: "She is Princess Pingyang." ”

"Princess Pingyang?" King Shin looked at him and said, "You are so bold. ”

Tang Ning asked rhetorically: "Why did the prince say this?" ”

King Xin said: "What is the identity of Princess Pingyang, you actually took her to the market, in case something goes wrong, can you afford this responsibility?" ”

"The prince is the regent, didn't he bring any guards and wander around the market?" Seeing that King Xin looked guilty, Tang Ning looked at him and said, "Those assassins yesterday came for the prince, right?" ”

King Shin looked at him and asked, "Are you reminding this king that you saved this king?" ”

Tang Ning shook his head and said, "The prince has misunderstood, even if others don't know how to be grateful, I won't repay the ......."

After chatting for a few words, he began to fight-for-tat, Tang Ning understood that the first few times he ate a closed door, it must have been deliberately done by King Xin, I don't know what the reason is, His Royal Highness King Xin, who had nothing to do with him before, was not friendly to him.

"Sharp teeth!" King Xin glanced at him, sat down in a chair, and asked, "You have come to the palace to ask for a marriage?" ”

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "You didn't let me come?" ”

King Shin slammed the teacup on the table: "This king is talking about the first two days. ”

Tang Ning shook his head and said, "I'm here to find the county lord." ”

"Looking for Lanlan?" King Xin glanced at him, "Are you familiar with Lan Lan?" ”

Tang Ning thought for a moment and said, "Lan Lan and I ...... It's quite familiar. ”

King Xin stood up abruptly and said angrily, "Lan Lan is also what you can call?" ”

Li Tianlan walked in from outside the door and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"It's fine." Tang Ning looked at her, shook his head, looked at King Xin again, and said, "If there is nothing to do, I will go back first." ”

King Xin stood up and said: "This king is not a person who does not repay his kindness, you saved this king, and if you have a chance in the future, this king will thank you, since you are here today, you might as well have a light meal and leave." ”

Eating itself is a very pleasant thing, but also sharing with whom to eat.

Eating a simple bowl of somen noodles with His Royal Highness the county lord, Tang Ning also felt that it was delicious in the world, but with King Xin, who obviously didn't like him, even if he ate delicacies from the mountains and seas, he still had to worry about whether King Xin had poisoned the dishes.

Tang Ning arched his hand and said: "Thank you, Lord Wang, but there are still some things to be busy ...... below."

Li Tianlan glanced up at Tang Ning, his eyes were meaningful.

King Xin waved his hand: "Since you ......"

"Since the prince has kindly invited, it doesn't hurt to delay those things later." Tang Ning arched his hand and said, "What a disturbance......

……

In the garden of King Xin's mansion, Tang Ning looked at Li Tianlan and said, "Your father doesn't seem to like me very much." ”

Li Tianlan didn't continue the topic and asked, "What's the matter with what my father said about not repaying his kindness?" ”

Downing recounted to her what had happened yesterday.

"You're the one from yesterday?" Li Tianlan looked at him and said suspiciously: "But my father said yesterday that you are very interesting, and he appreciates it very much." ”

The facts show that the outside world's rumors about King Xin are wrong, what a wise and martial artist, but just a big pig's trotter with changeable ideas.

Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "There is nothing to repay if you don't repay your kindness, you saved me once, and I also saved King Xin once, which can be regarded as a flattening." ”

Li Tianlan shook his head and said, "I am me, my father is my father, my father feels that he owes you something, and you don't owe me anything." ”

Tang Ning looked at her and said: "How can I, Tang Ning, be a person who does not repay my kindness, if there is anything that needs me in the future, just open my mouth, I will not hesitate to go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea ......of fire."

Not to mention that she saved herself, just to say that the friendship between the two is like a mountain as high as the sea, even if it is for him to dedicate himself to the sword mountain and the sea of fire, Tang Ning will not frown.

"That's what you said." Li Tianlan looked at him and said, "Go to the lawn in front of you, I haven't seen you for a year, and see if your martial arts have grown." ”

In the past year, although he has been busy, Tang Ning has never let go of his practice, and he can't catch up with her in a short time, but compared to ordinary people, it can be regarded as a fast entry.

He studied with Tang Yaoyao, Su Mei and Li Tianlan, although the results were the same, but the gains were different.

Tang goblin used him as a human sandbag, Su Mei only wanted to trick him into bed, only His Royal Highness the county lord would teach him seriously, without the slightest reservation, in just half an hour, Tang Ning benefited a lot, and had some more understanding in martial arts.

A maid walked in from outside and said, "Lord of the county, the prince asked you to come over for dinner." ”

Tang Ning walked into a hall with her, the table in the middle was already full of various dishes, and King Xin and a beautiful woman in palace clothes were already seated.

Li Tianlan looked at the woman in the palace and said, "This is my mother's concubine." ”

Tang Ning bowed and said, "I've seen the princess." ”

"Sit down." Princess Xin nodded with a smile and said, "I heard the prince say that you saved him yesterday." ”

Tang Ning sat down opposite King Xin and said, "I happened to meet it." ”

"If it weren't for you yesterday, the prince would be in danger." Princess Xin looked at Tang Ning and said, "Whatever reward you want, the prince and I will satisfy you." ”

Tang Ning looked at Li Tianlan, shook his head and said, "I don't want any reward, the road is uneven, the princess is polite." ”

"No matter what, the palace owes you a favor." Princess Xin said a word, and then asked, "You and Lan Lan have known each other for a long time?" ”

Tang Ning nodded and said, "Two years ago, when the county lord accompanied the regiment to envoy Chen Guo, we knew each other. ”

King Xin coughed lightly and said, "Let's eat, if you don't eat again, it will be cold." ”

Princess Xin nodded and said, "If you have anything to say, I won't know if the dishes of our Chu Kingdom are to your taste......

In fact, in comparison, the dishes of Chu are a little more in line with his taste, and there will even be a sense of intimacy.

Tang Ning took a piece of bamboo shoots, and when he was about to put it in his mouth, he snorted slightly with a movement in his hand.

The bamboo shoots tasted bitter, but before they could eat, Tang Ning smelled a faint sweet fragrance.

He put down his chopsticks and said quickly: "Slow! ”

King Xin and Princess Xin had already picked up the chopsticks, and when they heard this, they looked at Tang Ning with suspicious expressions.

Tang Ning stood up and said, "This dish is poisonous. ”

He looked at King Xin, and left him to eat for no reason, did King Xin really plan to poison the dish to get rid of him?

Smack.

The chopsticks in Princess Xin's hand fell to the ground, and she hurriedly said, "How is it possible, we use silver chopsticks!" ”

Tang Ning looked at her and explained: "Silver needles and silver chopsticks can only test the poison of arsenic, this poison is called zinnia, it is a chronic poison, after poisoning, it will not be effective immediately, but if you eat it for a long time, after a few months, even if you find it, it will be too late......"

It is impossible for the king to keep him to eat every day, and this should not be poisoned by him.

"Arrest everyone in charge of the royal meals." King Xin put down his chopsticks, looked behind him, and said, "Send the imperial doctor again." ”

Tang Ning looked at Li Tianlan and said, "You come with me." ”

Li Tianlan looked at him and asked, "What are you doing?" ”

"Get your body checked."

Seeing King Xin's gaze, Tang Ning added: "See if there is any poisoning." ”

Checking for zinnia poisoning is as simple as dropping a few drops of blood into clean water and adding an antidote, if there is a black precipitate, it means that there is zinnia toxin in the blood.

Li Tianlan pricked his finger with a needle, dripped blood into the bowl, and subconsciously put his finger in his mouth.

This action is a bit of a little girl, Zhao Man is nothing to do, but her temperament is as noble as His Royal Highness the county lord, and when she does this action, she will have a different style that is extremely difficult to see on weekdays.

"Ahem!" King Shin coughed heavily.

Tang Ning retracted his gaze, dipped some antidote powder with chopsticks, mixed it into the water, and after a while, he looked at the clear water whose color had not changed, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "There is no poisoning." ”

"Lan Lan rarely eats in the house on weekdays." Princess Xin looked at Tang Ning and said, "Let's help Grandpa Wang take a look again." ”

Tang Ning then inspected King Xin and Princess Xin again, and there was a little precipitation at the bottom of the bowl, judging from the amount of sediment, they had been poisoned for at least half a month.

At this time, the imperial doctor came belatedly, smelled the plate of lettuce, and tasted it himself, before he looked at King Xin with a worried gaze and said, "Lord Wang, there is no doubt that it is zinnia." ”

King Xin asked in a deep voice, "Is there an antidote?" ”

"The lower officials are incompetent." The imperial doctor knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "The imperial hospital only records this poison, but it does not record the antidote. ”

Princess Xin's body shook, Li Tianlan hurriedly supported her, looked at Tang Ning, and hurriedly asked, "Is there an antidote?" ”

Tang Ning waved his hand: "Little thing." ”
