Qingfeng didn't have anything to say, she just saw that the princess was entangled by Mrs. Dou and came to relieve the siege.

"Or Qingfeng knows my heart, how can I live without Qingfeng?" Shen Mengxi joked with a smile. Qingfeng and Heyu have been taught since childhood, from the family affairs of officials in Chang'an and Luoyang families, to cooking and arithmetic, combing hair and makeup, all of which are refined.

"Lady, that Cui Shi Niangzi, is indeed not good, I didn't expect such a mother to give birth to such an outstanding daughter."

"Cui Shi Niangzi is more like her grandmother." Shen Mengxi said with a smile.

"What is the lady going to do, is it to fulfill Da Langjun's heart?"

"Alas, this Cui Shi Niangzi is not bad, but her family background is too good." Shen Mengxi turned into a wry smile.

"The lady doesn't have to be too cautious, is it possible that our princess's mansion is still afraid of anyone?" Qingfeng said tentatively.

"I'm always scared." Shen Mengxi sighed, "Let me think about it again." ”

Shen Mengxi chatted with the ladies and little ladies of each family alone for a while, and she could see that Ding Siniang also had a good impression of Yin'er, and she felt very sorry in her heart.

As soon as the banquet ended, without allowing Shen Mengxi to think too much, Yin'er eagerly chased after Shen Mengxi and asked, "What does A-Niang think of Cui Shi Niang?" ”

"Not bad."

"Really! A-Niang agreed? ”

"Not really."

"Auntie!" Yin'er raised her voice anxiously.

Yin'er has never been so frizzy as recently as she has been for so many years, as if she is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old hairy boy.

"Have you exchanged hearts?"

"No, but my son can feel Cui Shi Niangzi...... ...... to his son, too," Yin'er couldn't speak.

"Alas, A-Niang will let people probe in a few days."

"How many days? Then someone will be the first to get there! ”

"Why are you so breathless? That little lady is so good? Shen Mengxi was a little impatient, and he really couldn't help it! I was in a panic.

Yin'er immediately fell silent.

The next day, Shen Mengxi invited Mrs. Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites to come to the door, planning to invite this Mrs. Liu to Cui's house to find out. Who knew that Mrs. Liu hadn't gone out yet, and she sat outside the door twice in a hurry, and Mrs. Liu also saw it, so she smiled and said, "The concubine has retired first, and I will go to Cui's Mansion tomorrow morning." ”

Shen Mengxi nodded, "There is Mrs. Lao Liu!" ”

Before Mrs. Liu left, Shen Qi came in to report: Mrs. Fang died violently!

Shen Mengxi was so shocked that the tea cup in his hand fell.

"Qingfeng, catch up with Mrs. Liu, cancel tomorrow's courtship!" When he turned around, he asked Shen Qi, "What's the matter?" ”

"It was said to be suffocation, it seems that the throat is swollen and I can't breathe." Shen Qi arched his hand, "Time is in a hurry, my subordinates will go to investigate again immediately!" ”

"No, it's a food allergy." Shen Mengxi sighed, "You go and talk to Da Lang again." ”

On the second day, Shen Mengxi took Yin'er to the house to mourn in person, Cui Jin fell ill, learned that the princess was coming, and hurriedly got up to greet him, Shen Mengxi looked over, Cui Jin was much older, the whole person was in a trance, Cui Qilang, Cui Jiulang and Cui Shiniang knelt in the mourning hall to return the salute. Cui Shi Niangzi was dressed in filial piety clothes, although her expression was sad, but she was not as depressed as Cui Jin, Yin'er almost lost her temper to help Cui Shi Niangzi, Shen Mengxi snorted lightly, and let him come back to his senses.

Cui Jin, a general who is both civil and military, has dull eyes at the moment, like a walking corpse, and muttered in his mouth: "I don't know what's going on, when I woke up this morning, I saw Rou Niang's face purple and swollen, dead for a long time, I hate that I drank yesterday, I don't know that Rou Niang has experienced such pain, life and death by my side, it's all my fault......"

Mrs. Cui interrupted: "Jiulang is an idiot, he can't stand his wife leaving suddenly, and he lost his temper in front of the princess, please forgive the princess!" ”

"No, it won't." Shen Mengxi shook his head. "Did the doctor tell me what the reason was?"

"Alas, I invited a female doctor to come and see her, and said that her throat was swollen and she died of food allergies. However, the maidservant said that Rou Niang did not eat any special food yesterday, and it was all the ones she was used to eating on weekdays. ”

"The old lady's festival is changing, Mrs. Fang's physique is special, I think there is a taboo food that I don't notice on weekdays, right?" Shen Mengxi's first thought was that someone had murdered.

"Let me in! I'm going in! The commotion outside the door was the slightly hoarse shout of a teenager.

"What is Kuro going to do? Why is there so no rules? Old Madam Cui shouted angrily, and the maidservant behind her hurriedly went out.

Cui Jin still bowed his head and remained silent, immersed in his grief.

"Yesterday, A-Niang went to the Princess's Mansion, I don't know what they gave A-Niang to eat before A-Niang died!" The boy howled and shouted.

Shen Mengxi listened to it for a while, why did he still get involved with himself, the luncheon at the princess's mansion, Mrs. Fang died last night, and it would not have been delayed for so long if she had allergies.

Old Man Cui stood up and said, "Shut his mouth and drag him out!" ”

Shen Mengxi also stood up and stopped: "Let's let Jiulang come in and talk about it, and this palace will listen to it too." ”

Old Madam Cui knelt down tremblingly, "The princess forgives her sins, Jiulang lost his mother, lost his mind, and made a mistake, and asked the princess to forgive her sins!" ”

"The old lady invites up, or invited the medical officer and the maidservant to come together, the palace was rushed to condolence today, but I don't want to be involved, don't say it, how can I do it?" Shen Mengxi looked back at Yin'er who was standing and said in a firm tone.

"Qingfeng, you go back to the house and take yesterday's menu, as well as the menu for Mrs. Fang alone. I went and invited Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Liu to come again! ”

Cui Xianjiu had already heard the news and rushed over, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and even said forgiveness.

Shen Mengxi sighed, walked up, and gave a false help, "Cui Saijiu, please hurry up, since Jiulang can think of this, others can also think of it, this matter must be settled, this palace and the Cui family need a truth." ”

When Qingfeng retrieved the menu, the medical officer and the medical woman of the Imperial Doctor's Department also arrived, and Zhang Zhienvoy also came.

Half an hour later, Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Liu also came one after another, and the two looked at each other, and before they had time to mourn in the house, they were invited to Cui's mansion by the princess.

When everyone arrived, Shen Mengxi looked at Cui Jiulang and asked, "Cui Jiulang, if you have any questions, just ask!" ”

Cui Jiulang shrank a little, looked at his grandfather and grandmother, and then looked at his father.

After hesitating, he walked out, and after saluting, he said with a little stubbornness: "The princess forgives Jiulang for being unreasonable, yesterday my mother except for the luncheon, and there was no taboo food in all the food, so I want to know, what did my mother eat at the luncheon in the princess's mansion?" ”

As soon as the words fell, the room was silent, Shen Mengxi glanced at everyone in the Cui family, it seems that there are many people who have this idea.

She motioned to Qingfeng, who took out two menus and handed them to Mrs. Cui's maidservant, who took it and handed it to Mrs. Cui.

It has been passed around, including Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Liu.

"The princess knew that Mrs. Fang's physique was special, so she was very careful in formulating the menu, and sent a maid to the house in advance to consult, which was a food taboo provided by Mrs. Fang's maid Qiu Yan." Qingfeng said in a deep voice.

Qiu Yan timidly knelt down and said, "This is indeed the case. ”

"The two ladies also attended the luncheon yesterday, are the dishes different from the menu?" Qingfeng asked again.

"Not really." The two ladies said.
