Chapter 13: Murder
Yu Qing was a little confused for a while, she didn't know how to check herself.
Ask the others, they all have an attitude of "you want to know, figure it out yourself", which makes Yuqing a little helpless.
After returning to the palace, Yu Qing kept thinking about this question, she ran to ask Mama Hua, but Mama Hua had never done such an errand, so she couldn't do anything.
Yu Qing shouldered the responsibility of going out of the palace to inspect the dishes, and the news soon spread.
Although Yu Qing hid left and right to avoid the palace maids who came to stammer, Mama Hua who was loudspeaker still spread the news about it.
For a while, everyone had one word for Yu Qing - jealousy.
Especially when Yu Qing came to the imperial dining room for only three or four days, they have not been treated like this for three or four years, which shows how red they are at Yu Qing at this time.
However, Yu Qing also has no way, she came here just to be able to eat good things.
Sending money is also to make oneself more comfortable, and not to end up like Cuckoo or Qinglian.
However, the interpersonal relationships in the harem are so sensitive, if you come out too quickly, you will only attract jealousy, and if you don't do it well, it will lead to death.
At night, Yuqing sat on the bed depressed. In addition to the cold eyes of the palace maids on her, what Yuqing is most worried about is tomorrow.
How should I check those dishes, I planned to ask Gonggong Li after returning to the palace, but Gonggong Li was busy to death, so he couldn't break into the muzzle at such a time.
Cuckoo came back with a wooden tub, and since that incident, the relationship between the two has eased somewhat, and they will occasionally say hello.
Seeing the cuckoo come in, Yu Qing greeted politely, and the cuckoo nodded in return.
At this time, Yu Qing didn't know what was going on in her head, she thought in a trance, maybe the cuckoo would know something.
"You're pretty good at asking people."
When Yu Qing went out of the palace to inspect the dishes, Du Juan knew about it, and she was fortunate enough to do it a few times when she first came here.
The reason why she doesn't care about Yuqing these days is mainly because Yuqing is too much like herself and Qinglian back then.
It's just that he saw the faces of these people clearly in time, and the low-key life has been replaced by Yu Qing, and Du Juan only feels that the heavens are reincarnated.
"Sister Cuckoo, I know you've been here for a long time, you must know, you can do it, tell me!"
Yu Qing looked flattering and handed Du Juan a glass of water, Du Juan looked at Yu Qing and immediately felt funny.
"Won't you ask Gonggong Li about this? Came to me and asked, in case I said something wrong, it's you who lost my head, and besides, aren't you afraid that I will deliberately say something wrong? ”
Du Juan felt that Yu Qing was open-minded and hard, but his mind was too simple. Shouldn't Qinglian's incident teach her a lesson? Who in this house can believe?
"I don't think we're in that place yet, just tell me the specific steps and precautions for checking the dishes, can this also hurt people? Aren't you tired......"
The last few words, Yu Qing said in a very small voice.
Cuckoo's reminder made Yu Qing suddenly feel very irritable, be careful in what you do, be careful in what you say, and be careful in everything you do.
Even when the two of her roommates get along, they have to think about every word she says, whether it is true, and whether it will harm herself, which is very different from the way Yu Qing usually gets along with others.
A small imperial dining room, like walking on thin ice, Yu Qing even began to regret staying in the palace, it is better to ask Fu Ankang for some silver taels, and enjoy the mountains and rivers by himself.
"Tired? Yu Qing, although I don't deal with you, but for the sake of you who once thought about standing up for me, I advise you. As he spoke, the cuckoo took out a pen and paper and began to write something.
He also said, "Get along with people and use your brains, no one will be good to you for no reason, I advise you to put away your kindness, so as not to be bitten by a dog in the future, and you will say that the dog is not sensible." ”
Yu Qing took a closer look and found that the font of the cuckoo was very beautiful, unlike other palace maids who didn't even know a few big characters.
"Wow cuckoo, your words are so beautiful, what are you...... How many years did it take to practice......"
The cuckoo was praised like this, and his heart couldn't help but feel happy.
Although he was born in a poor family, his grandfather was a county magistrate, but he later returned to his hometown.
So since he was a child, the cuckoo was still a little more educated than other poor children.
It is precisely because of this that after she enters the palace, she will be appreciated quickly, but this grace comes and goes quickly.
"If you have time, can you please spread the quilt and warm it up? I'm afraid you can't remember this pig brain, so I'll write it down to you on paper. ”
The cuckoo's carefulness touched Yu Qing a lot, and it was the first time since entering the palace that she felt the kindness of others.
Yu Qing thought that Du Juan was reconciling with herself, and nodded excitedly.
Then he laid out the quilt and climbed into bed, and began to warm the quilt for the two people.
However, in Du Juan's heart, he didn't really regard Yuqing as a friend.
She just repaid Yu Qing's favor before, and what Yu Qing can do after this incident has nothing to do with herself.
Early the next morning, Yu Qing got up early, and she familiarized herself with the inspection process written by Du Juan last night.
It turns out that it is very simple to inspect the dishes, in fact, it is to look at the dishes and then choose the ingredients, which is also an opportunity to train people.
If you can learn to learn the dishes from the chefs, then the future is limitless.
Li Defu came step by step in this way, so when the palace maids heard that Yu Qing was going out of the palace to know the food, how many people were red-eyed.
The little father-in-law who took Yuqing out of the palace had been waiting for Yuqing for a long time, and Yuqing went out in full gear.
When I saw the little father-in-law, I inevitably stuffed some silver taels in the past, this is the cuckoo taught her, and she has a good relationship with the father-in-law who guards the door, and it will be used in the future.
"If you know the rules, let's go." My father-in-law was also very happy to see such a sensible Yu Qing.
After all, they are little fathers-in-law, and on weekdays, only when the emperor gives amnesty to the world, can they share so many taels of silver.
Now as soon as Yu Qing makes a move, it is ten taels of silver. The most important thing is that the silver that Yu Qing gave them, to put it bluntly, is to look up to them, this kind of little person is the same as Mama Hua, especially knows how to lick.
Because he received Yuqing's silver, his father-in-law instructed Yuqing while walking. What to do there, what not to do, how to test it.
The rest is fine, but when Yu Qing heard the inspection, it was very different from what Du Juan said last night.
Du Juan said that the dishes must not be tasted, because this is Li Defu's right, no matter how bad it is, it is the matter of the imperial chef, she only needs to do her own thing, and never cross the line.
But this little father-in-law has been telling himself to taste the dishes well, otherwise the dishes that will have problems in the future will be tasted by the emperor, and it will inevitably be the life of the funeral.
Both of these are right, so Yu Qing is a little confused, on the one hand, Du Juan's attitude last night did not mean to harm himself at all, but this father-in-law also just received his own money, this ......
Yu Qing thought about it while following her father-in-law out of the palace.
And this time is different, because it is Yu Qing and a few little eunuchs, and there is no Li Defu, so after they leave the palace, they almost have to rely on themselves to find it, rather than someone leading the way.
Fortunately, they had been to Tsinghua Garden, and the process of going was not too bumpy, but after arriving, Yu Qing was dumbfounded.
Yesterday, I followed Gonggong Li, and I almost lowered my head the whole time, and I didn't remember how to go to this Tsinghua Garden Now after I got here, the little eunuchs all dispersed in a hurry to go about their own things, leaving only themselves standing in the corridor with a confused face.
The worst thing is that there is not a single palace maid and eunuch around, and I don't even know who to look for to ask for directions?
If you can't arrive in time, you must be punished, and if you don't do it, you will be hit with a board and pricked with a needle......
Yu Qing shook her head, just thinking about the tortured punishments in the TV series is already terrifying, this really falls on herself......
Yu Qing began to be anxious, this Tsinghua Garden herself has only been here once, and the place inside is very large, she looked around, but Tsinghua Garden extends in all directions, and every room looks exactly the same, and Yu Qing has found the wrong place several times.
Soon the sun will be on the sun, and Yu Qing has already missed the time, even if he is now and in the past, he is the Lord who will surely die.
I should have asked the cuckoo how he went, but now it's good, I haven't seen the food yet, so I have to go to eat Hades' food.
Yu Qing secretly hurt herself, but the pace under her feet still did not stop, being late and not going were definitely two different things, she decided that even if she found it dark, she had to pass.
Maybe God saw Yu Qing so miserable, and he couldn't bear it, just when Yu Qing was about to go in the other direction, suddenly a ghostly little eunuch appeared in the opposite direction.
When Yuqing saw someone, it was really closer than seeing a relative, so she hurried over.
However, this little eunuch was not the same as normal, he walked sneakily. Maybe he was too focused, and he didn't even notice that Yu Qing was following behind.
Yu Qing also felt strange, what was this little eunuch going to do?
Before Yu Qing could figure it out, she saw the little eunuch walk to a secluded garden and hide behind the rockery.
In front of the rockery, a woman dressed in goose yellow clothes stood there, holding fish food in her hand and constantly feeding it into the pond, as if she was admiring the koi.
Yu Qing had never seen this woman, but looking at the dress, she also knew that this woman was not an ordinary person, and even more gorgeous than Chen Fuya's clothes, Yu Qing guessed that at least she should be a concubine.
Because she was standing too far away, Yu Qing didn't see this woman's face clearly.
At this time, he saw the little eunuch, quietly walked behind the woman, and then picked up a stone on the ground.
When Yu Qing saw this scene, even a fool knew that this little eunuch was going to commit murder.
"Someone, someone's going to murder!"
Yu Qing shouted at the top of her voice, and the woman and the little eunuch also heard it, and the two looked at each other.
The woman's face immediately turned pale with fright, and the little eunuch saw that the matter was revealed, and he was all dead, if he could complete the task, maybe his family would be a blessing in disguise.
