Whether Wu Zixi will come or not, it is difficult to say clearly to Yeqi, after all, Wu Zixi did not give any exact answer at that time, but just calmly said "congratulations".

Xiang Yeqi basically rejected Wu Zixi's reply by default, after all, since returning to Huaguo, Wu Zixi has never left the county lord's mansion.

However, Wu Zixi still appeared in the banquet in palace clothes with the support of Zhaohua, and the complicated palace clothes covered her wounds, but she also knew how uncomfortable the heavy and stuffy dress would make her, no matter how strong Wu Zixi was to fight her spirit, Xiang Yeqi could see the distress between her eyebrows.

Xiang Yeqi hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhaohua and helped Wu Zixi to the banquet. This table is mostly Wu Zixi's friends when he was still in the boudoir, and now it is just right to spell a table. She also sat next to Wu Zixi by the way, thinking that it was so convenient to take care of Wu Zixi.

She sat on Wu Zixi's left hand side, and on Wu Zixi's right hand side was Zhen Baiyu, the young lady of the Zhen family, and Wu Zixi's friendship was deep, although it was not as good as Xiang Yeqi and Wu Zixi's life, but she also said what she thought in her heart. Zhen Baiyu is two or three years older than Wu Zixi, and he almost no longer leaves the house after the marriage, and the intersection between the two is becoming less and less.

"On such a hot day, why does the county lord still wear such a heavy cloak? Don't get stuffy. ”

Zhen Baiyu didn't have any malicious intentions, but she just felt strange, Huaguo had just entered spring at this time, and the girls around her were all thinly dressed with small fans, and Wu Zixi was dressed heavily, not to mention, she even wore a cloak to cover most of her appearance. If it weren't for the "introduction" to Yeqi, she didn't even realize that this was Wu Zixi.

"Could it be that the county lord's sister hasn't seen the sisters for too long, and she's a little embarrassed? It's all so familiar, what's so scary. ”

Zhen Baiyu smiled and wanted to untie the cloak for Wu Zixi, but Wu Zixi instinctively opened his hand, and neither of them reacted to what was happening, and they were stunned, not knowing how to break such an impasse.

……

It's really embarrassing.

Xiang Yeqi pretended to sort out some scattered cloaks for Wu Zixi, and explained to Wu Zixi: "Miss Zhen doesn't know, the county lord had some minor illnesses a few days ago, and now although he has been cured with medicine, because this medicine still has some drawbacks, the county lord can't see the light during this time, and if he sees it, it will hurt his eyes." ”

Zhen Baiyu nodded suspiciously, and smiled rather embarrassedly: "No wonder, it's like this, I really wronged the county lord." ”

Wu Zixi replied in a hoarse voice, as if he was saying to himself: "I will always get through it." ”

Several of her friends echoed the words, and it was not until the palace people came forward to serve food that they looked away.

The palace people served the porridge before the meal, because the plate used to serve the porridge was too small, only two lamps could be brought at a time, one was given to Xiang Yeqi first, and the other was given to Zhen Baiyu, who was sitting on the outermost side.

Xiang Yeyu and Zhen Baiyu had the same idea, but Zhen Baiyu started faster, pushed his bowl of porridge to Wu Zixi, and comforted him softly: "Sister of the county lord, I wanted to take off my cloak for you without asking clearly, and I scared you, is it mine." If you drink this porridge first, it will be regarded as me making amends for your sins. ”

Wu Zixi nodded solemnly, "Thank you." ”

Xiang Yeqi, who was not very interested in eating these lists, was not very interested, so he simply stirred the thick porridge that was cooked just right with a porcelain spoon.

It's so fragrant.

It turns out that the essence of human beings is really true fragrance.

Xiang Yeqi didn't taste a bite of freshness, the taste of this meat was not quite compatible with cattle and sheep, she couldn't think of anything for a while, she only felt a little flustered.

She turned the porridge bowl upside down, and finally found what she was curious about, which was actually the crab leg meat that had been dialed. This thing is good, but Wu Zixi is a pregnant person......

It can be premature with a slippery tire, or hemorrhage at worst.

Xiang Yeqi hurriedly turned sideways and called out to Wu Zixi, "Changchao County Lord, don't eat it yet, I'm afraid there is something in this porridge that you can't eat." Did you just eat it? ”

"Niangniang is talking about crab leg meat?"

Zhen Baiyu smiled, as if she didn't understand why Xiang Yeqi was so nervous: "Don't be afraid, the people in the palace are meticulous, and they have come to the house in advance to understand what taboos the courtiers and the family have, and the seats in the banquet are set in advance, everyone's taboos are recorded in the book, and the cooks and ladies in the imperial dining room know what to put and what not to put it, and the courtiers just can't eat crab meat, so the courtiers don't have crab leg meat in this bowl." ”

This reminded Xiang Yeqi that the palace cook did send someone to inquire in advance about what she couldn't eat, and she sighed at the time that these people were meticulous, and today I realized that it was originally used for this purpose, and it was used to distinguish the difference between each meal.

"Then I'll rest assured, after all, the county lord of Changchao is thin, and he really can't afford such a toss."

Xiang Yeqi smiled helplessly, she was really worried about Wu Zixi to the extreme, fortunately, Wu Zixi's taboo had already been recorded in the palace, otherwise there would be a lot of trouble today.

Zhen Baiyu smiled kindly: "There is a mother who cares about the county lord so much, how can the county lord have anything?" The courtiers are also envious of the county lord, and they can have a confidant and friend like Niangniang. ”

However, before Zhen Baiyu's words fell, the porcelain spoon in Wu Zixi's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and it was broken into two with a crisp sound.

"The spoon fell out of the way, you didn't hurt, did you?" Xiang Yeqi even nervously looked at Wu Zixi's hand, and hurriedly called Zhaohua over: "Before you took your master out of the house, did you take medicine?" ”

Zhaohua nodded confusedly, and asked Xiang Yeqi in confusion: "Since you have been on it, how dare the slaves and maids snub the county master?" What's wrong? ”

Wu Zixi was already sweating profusely because of his heavy clothes, and he couldn't distinguish Wu Zixi's face from the night for a while, so he had to urge Zhaohua: "I can't say clearly for a while-go find the imperial doctor!" The sooner the better! ”

Zhaohua answered nervously, and trotted away all the way to pass the imperial doctor.

Wu Zixi fell into Xiang Yeqi's arms, and without saying half a word of pain, Xiang Yeqi felt that the pain she endured at this time was definitely not something ordinary people could bear.

She gasped heavily, painful tears wet the clothes in front of Xiang Yeqi, Wu Zixi grabbed Xiang Yeqi's wrist hard, as if she wanted to find some way to endure the pain, but she couldn't bear to put too heavy a hand on Xiang Yeqi, and in the end, it was nothing more than grabbing the layers of crooked folds on Xiang Yeqi's sleeves.

The ladies on the side just looked anxious, and did not dare to come forward easily.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here, and the Imperial Doctor will be here soon."

Xiang Yeqi had to maintain her composure in front of Wu Zixi, and she gently smoothed Wu Zixi's back, in a vain attempt to relieve her pain.

However, Wu Zixi didn't seem to have the strength to give any reply, so he could only slowly nod in Xiang Yeqi's arms.

The young lady sitting opposite Xiang Yeqi wanted to lean over to pick up the scraped bracelet, but let out an exclamation: "See, see red!" ”

It will be so, and Xiang Yeji has already felt it.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have urged Zhaohua to go and ask the doctor to come back.

The bloody aura around him was scorching, and Hugh said that such a big thing had happened.

Xiang Yeqi stirred the spoon in Wu Zixi's porridge bowl, and actually turned out a lot of crab leg meat, which was four or five times more than her bowl.

The crab leg meat is boiled like porridge, and the appearance and taste are similar to that of boiled white rice, all of which are soft and glutinous, and if you don't pay attention, you can't see what you have eaten.

Zhen Baiyu saw Xiang Yeqi holding the bowl solemnly, but she was a little too serious, and she was really panicked: "The queen mother is going to ...... this"

Xiang Yeqi picked up the porcelain bowl, handed it to the guards on the side, and said, "Leave the evidence of the crime." ”

These three words alone scared Zhen Baiyu's knees weak, as if there were no bones in his body.

The imperial doctor was late, so he sent Ying Yan and the palace people on the side to carry Wu Zixi back to the small hall for emergency response, and he gave his hand to Xiang Yeqi and said: "Niangniang, the minister will go to treat the county lord first." ”

Nodding to Nightshade, he regained control of the overall situation.

"Miss Zhen, sit down first." She glanced at Zhen Baiyu, who seemed to have lost her soul, and beckoned to her: "Until the matter is clear, I won't do anything to you." ”

"Courtier, Xie Niangniang, give me a seat."

Zhen Baiyu nodded stupidly, and sat down with her own girl with empty eyes. After all, that bowl of porridge was handed to Wu Zixi by herself, if the so-called real culprit cannot be found in this matter, the collapse of the entire real mansion will only be at this time, in this life.

Because of this, Xiang Yeqian didn't think that Zhen Baiyu would be the real murderer, unless she couldn't think about it, or she simply had some grudges with her family, and wanted to drag the entire Zhen Mansion to sink together.

But this Zhen Baiyu doesn't look like she has a bad brain.

Not long after, the people of the Pink Skirt Palace, who had just served the porridge on the table, were put over by two guards, and the people of the Pink Skirt Palace looked at their young age, and they were so frightened by the sword on the guard's waist that they cried and cried, and they couldn't even cry.

Because her crying was really annoying, she was scolded by the guard: "Don't cry, Niangniang still needs to ask you!" ”

Xiang Yeqi raised his hand to stop the guard from continuing to act aggressively, and instead summoned the maid to his side, with a kind attitude: "I ask you, when the imperial dining room was handed over to you, did you explain to whom it was presented to you?" ”

The little palace man wiped two handfuls of tears that made her dizzy, and choked up: "Hui Niangniang, the adults in the imperial dining room have instructed that the bowl in your left hand is the queen mother, because you are the most noble in the palace, I want you to eat first." The other bowl was presented to Miss Zhen, because she couldn't eat crab meat, so she set aside a small pot to cook it in advance, so she had to serve it first. ”

In this way, it ruled out the possibility that the people of Xiaogong were sloppy and presented the porridge to the wrong person, she and the people in the imperial dining room clearly remembered it clearly, and also knew that it was a taboo to take a small pot alone to avoid Zhen Baiyu's taboo, so it must not be a problem in this link.

Xiang Yeqi asked softly, "Then on the way back from the imperial dining room, did the two bowls of porridge in your hands pass through other people's hands?" ”

Xiaogong thought for a while and said, "The slave doesn't dare to say it." ”
