Chapter 432: Man is only for himself
Corpse poison is not an ordinary poison, although the residual poison in Xuanye's body has been cleaned up, but at least half a year can not touch alcohol again. What's more, most of the wine made from the cold of the Jade Country is spirits.
Xuan Ye also put down the wine glass seriously, and the Jade King laughed twice: "The princess is really considerate, and the prince is really a blessing!" β
Xu Tiantian nodded slightly and did not speak again.
The Jade King clapped his hands, and the songs and dances were all things that Xu Tiantian had never seen in Jingxi, but as a modern person, her appreciation of beauty was naturally different, and there were only a few words of evaluation for these classical dances, and the beauty was beautiful, and there was nothing new.
Xuan Ye looked at Xu Tiantian and wanted to leave the table early, but Xu Tiantian was comforted. After all, this is the Jade King who held a banquet for the two of them, speaking of which, the two of them can be regarded as the protagonists, and the protagonist left the department early, so how can the Jade King get off the stage?
After a long time, when Xu Tiantian was about to fall asleep, the Jade King suddenly clapped his hands again, and his voice sounded from above the big store. β
This time the Jade Kingdom suffered a natural disaster, if it weren't for the two of them being able to help, I'm afraid that the Jade Kingdom would not recover so quickly now, and this king is really grateful to the two. This is a delicacy that will only be made when the new son of heaven ascends the throne in my jade country, and the two of you will taste it. β
Even Yi Yunzhi raised his head and looked at the dish that the palace maid put on each table. He knew that there were 16 kinds of Chinese medicine and the first rain in spring, the first lotus flower in summer, the first chrysanthemum in autumn, and the first snow in winter.
Its staple food is the swallow meat of the South China Sea, which has an excellent taste, and the name of this dish is "spring, summer, autumn and winter", which means that the wind and rain are smooth in all seasons.
Before the lid could be lifted, Xu Tiantian smelled a fragrant smell, mixed with a little Chinese medicine, but it was not as bitter as Chinese medicine. Xu Tiantian was very curious about what kind of heat and what kind of skills could be used to combine these Chinese medicines with these dishes.
The waiter lifted the lid, and the first thing that caught his eye was the swallow meat, which was wrapped in lotus flowers, and the soup in the bowl was decorated with some red and a chrysanthemum.
Xuan Ye took a spoon and first gave Xu Tiantian a bowl, gently blew and fed it to her.
Although Xu Tiantian has seen a lot of dishes, it is the first time she has seen such a variety of meanings given to Taoist dishes. The Jade King has already said that this dish will only be used when the new emperor of the Jade Kingdom ascends the throne, which is enough to show the Jade King's sincerity towards them.
Xu Tiantian ate the instant fragrance in his mouth, probably because the swallow's meat was small, and there was no fat, and the bite was very chewy, the meat juice was overflowing and the taste was full, until Xu Tiantian swallowed it, and his lips and teeth were still fragrant.
"It tastes so good, you can taste it too." Xu Tiantian nodded and gave a very high evaluation.
To be able to make a dish taste like this, even those five-star chefs in modern times may not be able to do so.
Xuanye ate a lot of delicacies from the mountains and seas, but he was still amazed by this soup.
After three rounds of drinking, some female relatives and Xu Tiantian said polite words, and the Jade King praised this Xuanye in front of everyone for how capable. It wasn't until two hours later that the banquet was over, Xu Tiantian was lazy, and she was busy surviving all day, although she was just moving her mouth to say a few words of gossip, but it was like smoke was coming out of her throat.
Xuan Ye knew that what Xu Tiantian didn't like the most was the noisy palace banquet of these personal groups, but he had to deal with it, so he went back to the dormitory at night and gently pressed Xu Tiantian's shoulder.
"Tomorrow we will go to the Jade King to say goodbye, we have been in the Jade Kingdom for some time, and now the illness of the people of the Jade Kingdom has been cured, you and I have also been here for a long time, and the rest of us should return to the city earlier, otherwise my father will be worried in the palace."
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
Xu Tiantian took Xuan Ye's hand, and just as he wanted to say something, he heard a knock on the door outside, and the palace people who were waiting on the side opened the door and saw Yi Yunzhi outside.
Seeing that the person who came was Yi Yunzhi, Xuan Ye was very unhappy: "Why didn't you have a good rest in the dormitory so late, why did you come to us." β
Yi Yunzhi didn't care at all, Xuan Ye disliked his appearance, "I heard that you are going back to Jingxi tomorrow, so I can say that we are friends now, so naturally we want to say goodbye." β
Xuan Ye raised his eyebrows, "The polite words that should be said at the banquet have also been said, and the gifts that the Jade King should give have also been given, what else is there to say, you don't want to pull me to drink, my lady will never agree." β
Xu Tiantian rubbed her temples with some headaches, the two men who have been adults for a long time, how can they still be so naΓ―ve, if they let outsiders look at them, wouldn't it be a joke.
Yi Yunzhi put his hands behind his back, "You don't use Tiantian as a shield, you just don't drink well, you're afraid that you can't drink me yourself." How can there be soothing incense in your dormitory? When he walked to the incense burner, he found half of the soothing incense burning and frowned.
Xu Tiantian stepped forward and she didn't notice that this soothing incense had already been dyed for half a while, and she thought that she had already done some work, "What's wrong?" Any questions? When the two of us returned, it was already lit in the room. I'm not used to being here, I always can't sleep well at night, so I'm used to lighting a stick of soothing incense, and today the two of us came back a little late, probably because these people who were waiting for me knew my habits, so they lit it in advance. β
Probably because she went out of the palace a few days ago to play with some wind and cold, and after a while of entering this house, she felt a little dizzy, and naturally she wouldn't look too carefully at these things, if it wasn't for Yi Yunzhi coming, she wouldn't have noticed it.
Yi Yunzhi frowned tightly, "No, even if these people who are waiting know that you are used to lighting a soothing incense, they all know that you just ate 'Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter', this dish is extremely compelling, if you wait for a stick of incense to burn out, the two of you will sleep in this house for a night, but I am afraid that the two of you will not have to go back early tomorrow morning!" β
"Spring, summer, autumn and winter" and tranquility incense are mutually restrictive, this is a well-known thing in the jade country, so in the palace, whenever there is a new son of heaven before and after three months of ascending the throne, there will definitely be no tranquility incense.
Even Xu Tiantian didn't know this habit, but the people who served Xu Tiantian and Xuanye were all from the Jade Kingdom, not only did they not remind them, but they had already lit this incense before they came back, but they were afraid that someone would instruct them!
For a while, even Xu Tiantian had some accidents, she and Xuanye were in the palace, and who had such a long arm that dared to reach into the palace to harm them?
"This ......"
Yi Yunzhi didn't give Xu Tiantian and Xuan Ye another chance to hesitate, he didn't allow anyone to hurt Xu Tiantian in Jingxi, let alone just in his own territory, and then turned around and went out to call the personal guards.
"Suge, this matter must be thoroughly investigated. Let all the people who have come to the palace today let go one by one! and the palace people who took care of the prince and the princess before were all sent to the Shen Criminal Division, when they were recruited and when they were released. β
Xu Tiantian and Xuan Ye glanced at each other, this person was going to do it the night before they went back, which showed that he had been planning for a long time. If it weren't for Yi Yunzhi's sudden visit today, I am afraid that she and Xuan Ye would die here quietly today, and no one would know.
The father-in-law who was waiting next to him in the Jade King's bedroom wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Your Majesty, how is this good? Now the prince doesn't know that this matter is your will, and the whole palace is now in an uproar, and the prince even threatens to catch the real culprit, and says that he will not spare it. β
The Jade King put down the tea in his hand, obviously it was a little difficult to sit still, but in the end, the momentum of not being angry and arrogant was naturally still in so many years, what kind of wind and waves have never been seen, it is just a trivial matter, not to mention that Yi Yunzhi is his son, and he is the prince of the Jade Kingdom, and he is also doing this for the good of the Jade Country.
"Go and call the crown prince, and say that the king has something to say to him."
The matter has been investigated for three days, but there have been no clues, Xuan Ye and Xu Tiantian decided to set off, but because of this matter, they were also delayed. If we don't find out who wants to kill them, I'm afraid that the two of them will be in danger on the way, and whether they can reach Jingxi safely is one thing.
Yi Yunzhi arrived at the Jade King's bedroom, and before his feet were buried, his voice had already come in: "Father, I'm still busy dealing with some things at hand, if there is anything, just say it." β
The Jade King put down the fold in his hand, and looked at Yi Yunzhi who was standing next to him with deep eyes: "Chun'er, you don't need to check the affairs of the prince and the princess anymore!" β
Yi Yunzhi frowned, aside from the rest, his father, as a king, naturally knew that if Xuanye and Xu Tiantian died here, it would inevitably lead to a battle between Jingxi and Yuguo. What's more, Xu Tiantian is the patron saint of the people of the Jade Kingdom, how can the people of the Jade Kingdom take revenge?
"What does my father mean by this? His father was a king, and his words stood up to heaven and earth. Let's not talk about whether Xu Tiantian is kind to us, does my father know how heavy the price would be if the two of them really had an accident in the palace of my Jade Kingdom? β
The Jade King was angry and slammed the teacup on the table to the ground, and the father-in-law who was waiting on the side hurriedly stepped forward to deal with it, "Are you questioning this king?" β
Yi Yunzhi took a step back, kneeling on the ground but his back was straight, and his eyes did not show the slightest fear, "Father will always be a hero in the hearts of the ministers, but this matter is not trivial, and the ministers will not give up easily." What's more, if the minister agreed, the prince and the princess would definitely give them an explanation. If this matter is over, how can my father and his ministers say it? β
