Chapter 111: Powder
I can't rest assured! Why is there no movement at all! Meng Yining paced with his hands behind his back. Zhang Ji sat in the house, and the new shoots of the trees outside the window were about to emerge. She looked anxious like a rabbit on the fire, and she couldn't take a single step. "This person has been sent out for a few days, there is no news, and the assassin did not say what Jing Chi received. I suspect that the small group of men and horses has long since lost their lives. ”
"They don't have many soldiers and horses in their hands, and it's not enough to set off a huge storm." Zhang Ji smiled and put down the teacup, "Your temperament, unlike your mother, is becoming more and more impatient." ”
Bai Xining pushed the door in, and in early spring, he changed into a sky blue dress, and the whole person seemed to be wearing a clear blue sky. "Elder Zhang," she leaned slightly and walked next to Meng Yining, "Qianqian, you haven't slept well in the past few days, and you've come here in a hurry." You don't drink soothing tea, it's boring. ”
Meng Yining nodded: "Yes, yes, my sister, ......"
Behind her, Le Yi also caught up.
"Why are you here?"
Le Yi asked rhetorically: "Why can't I come!" ”
Meng Yining muttered in a low voice: "Look at you hanging around, circling around the palace three or two times, and you won't see a shadow for a day." Where did you find the messenger mama? It won't be on the roof! You squatted on my tree and watched for a long time last night, and you didn't know that you thought Zhiduoxing had a monkey father! ”
Le Yi smiled and listened to the mocking words, "You can't find me for the past two days, what's wrong?" ”
"What's wrong! It's better to be affectionate and stay away from me. Meng Yining gave him a blank look.
Bai Xining interjected: "Your Majesty asked me to come over, saying that there is something to discuss." "She's weird too. Late yesterday night, Chun Xia found her and proposed to remind her to wait in the imperial study today, so she arrived early.
Meng Yining tilted his head: "Something's wrong." It's time to go down to the court, why haven't you seen it yet. ”
Bai Xining: "There are many things, the new king is on the throne, and everything is waiting to be done." There are too many things in the previous dynasty, and it is common to drag it out for a while. As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Gu Zi'an's voice coming back, and the mighty palace maids and guards behind her were very different from before.
After a few people saluted, some snacks were brought up in the spring and summer.
Gu Zi'an sat on the rosewood chair, and the serious aura on his body suddenly decreased a lot. Above the court, he did not smile. But in front of a few familiar people, you can finally stop the nerves from being so tense.
"What's going on?" Although Meng Yining said that he had entered the palace, his attitude towards speaking had not changed much, he dragged the tail note as usual, and his little eyes flashed.
Bai Xining frowned, "Qianqian, it's not as good as being outside, and you are too respectful and humble to speak." ”
Meng Yining was instantly stunned, and his head drooped.
Compared with her when she was trembling when she was a child, Gu Zi'an feels much cuter now, flesh and blood, and can afford to joke. He smiled and said in a sparse voice, "What do you want to know?" ”
She rolled her eyes, "Did anyone say that this huge palace is a little empty......" The tone was yin and yang, so that Bai Xining knocked on her brain when she heard it, interrupting the unfinished words.
"Why did Your Majesty call me?"
Gu Zi'an thought for a while, "It's a little cool today, but you need to go out of the palace." ”
"Oh?" Meng Yining heard something, "What's wrong?" ”
Gu Zi'an's face sank, "In the past few days, the Zhao Mansion has been sealed, and a lot of evidence has been found to contain filth and collude with party henchmen. It's just one thing, and it's still unclear. In his study was a small, inconspicuous box of brown powder. On that day, some of the officers and men were cold, and when they sneezed, the powder sprayed flew everywhere, and many of them inhaled it into their noses. ”
This matter stopped in the ears of a few people, and it didn't seem like a big deal. But Gu Zi'an's tone was very worrisome.
His eyes were stiff, and he whispered: "Those officers and soldiers who inhaled the powder were originally fine, but last night they suddenly jumped up in the house like walking corpses, dancing and eating human flesh. The others had no choice but to draw their swords against each other. It's just that those people don't feel the slightest pain, but they pounce on them. They had no choice but to cut off their heads, and now the bodies and wooden boxes are placed in the yamen. Xining, don't you know some medical skills, I want you to take a look...... The Tai Hospital only sent a capable old minister, and it was not easy to publicize the matter in a big way, for fear of causing panic. ”
After Gu Zi'an finished speaking, Bai Xining fell into deep thought.
"I can't feel the pain...... Monsters......" she whispered.
Gu Zi'an asked, "What do you think, let's hear it?" ”
"There are many ways to make people feel pain. It is like a kind of hemp boiling powder that can be disemboweled. But this delayed onset is really strange. I'll have to see for myself. With that, she got up.
"It's okay, if you need anything, just tell the widow. After a while, General Wei Yong will come, and he will not go with you. ”
The group sat in a carriage and quietly set off from the palace. Meng Yining opened the curtain and observed the streets and alleys of Beiyang, where people wore mink hats and dark brown cotton clothes. The smell of goat's cheese pie came from not far away, and she sniffed, "It's so fragrant......"
Le Yi smiled and said loudly: "Then you have to add honey to make it delicious, otherwise you don't want to." ”
"Who said I was afraid that the smell would be too strong, I could eat a whole leg of lamb when I was a child! It was snowing in the courtyard and roasting meat, and the oil was dripping down...... "She didn't admit defeat."
Le Yi lifted the curtain and flew out of the car.
Meng Yining looked at his figure, deftly shuttled among the pedestrians, and ran there to buy a wrap of hot cheese cake. He walked much faster than the carriage with the bread in his hand, and with one leap came again in the midst of the crowd. The rich fragrance spread in the car, and he handed it to Meng Yining, looking like he was watching a play: "Come, taste it!" ”
"Who's afraid of whom!" She muttered quietly, neatly picked up a loaf and shoved it into her mouth. The cheese stretched out a long thread of silk and smoked hot. The smell of some burnt bread overflowed her nose, and she swallowed it in a big gulp, only to freeze instantly.
Meng Yining didn't dare to move.
The smell of the smell dances in her mouth!
It's like a flock of sheep bleating in her throat and stomping their feet!
Le Yi looked at her and smiled: "The sheep in Beiyang are different from Yanrong's, and the goat milk here must be eaten with honey and red fruits." ”
When she heard this, she swallowed it as if she didn't admit defeat.
"Don't, don't!" He took the remaining half, took out the red fruit honey sauce that he had prepared, and sprinkled it lightly on top. Sure enough, it blends with the flavor, sweet and sour, like the taste of wild fruit yogurt on the grassland.
