Chapter 118: Who Poisoned Someone?
, wonderful no pop-up window for free!
Gu Yueze sat down and glanced at Bai Caixuan.
"What's the matter, what's the fuss?"
The old eunuch behind him smiled awkwardly, and he didn't know how to reply.
"It's nothing, the third lady who left home drank too much and said some nonsense."
"What nonsense?"
Gu Yueze looked at Bai Caixuan's face was wrong, thinking that she was being bullied and intended to make decisions for her.
In addition, Bai Zhaoqin's expression was also very serious, which made it even more sloppy.
But how did he know that if this matter was investigated, the Bai family's face would not be disgraceful.
The old eunuch was a celebrity beside Gu Yueze, and he was clear about his relationship with Bai Caixuan, so he smiled and whispered in his ear: "I didn't say anything, Miss Li just apologized to Miss Bai for her sister, for fear that her sister would verbally bump into Miss Bai." ”
"Substitute for the lamp?" Gu Yueze suddenly looked sideways.
When it comes to leaving the lamp, his eyes are full of dancing postures, the place where he holds the parchment on his chest is also faintly hot, and the hand that strokes the parchment is also faintly painful.
"Yes, it's to apologize for the second lady who left home."
Gu Yueze raised his eyes to look at Bai Caixuan, and saw that she didn't deny it, so he waved his hand: "If you are drunk, take it out to be sober and sober, don't make a fuss on the table." ”
Gu Fuwei propped his forehead and looked at the prince's expression silently, without saying a word.
Lichen was dragged out, and the banquet was completely silent.
The dishes that should be served are all served, and the songs that should be listened to are all finished, and in the meantime, the wine has been drunk for a while, and only then has it been renewed.
Although I don't know why the prince returned to the table so late, it is obvious that the selection of the East Palace has come to an end.
The sons of the good family waited attentively for the final result, even after eating this banquet, they didn't even see what the prince looked like, but in the end, they were curious.
Gu Yueze coughed lightly twice and cleared his throat.
He thanked him first, raised his glass again, and toasted everyone, and the scene was quiet after a while.
Most of the sons of the good family can't be chosen, and the daughters of the ministers who have talked to Gu Yueze are listening to the final fate with ardent hope, after all, Miss Fang Cai Bai family volunteered to be so ugly, isn't it?
Gu Yueze's brows furrowed slightly, and his thin lips were lifted, as if he was about to announce, but there was no sound in his mouth.
This scene was grotesque for a while, Gu Fuwei couldn't help but look sideways, only to see the prince staring at the far away last seat, that gaze was impartial, and it seemed to fall on Lizhan.
Gu Fuwei quickly poured himself a drink, covered his sleeves and drank it all, and his long sleeved robe was unfolded, just covering the figure of Lizhan.
Gu Yueze came back to his senses at this time, and secretly sighed in his heart: What's going on? The more I look at it, the more it looks like it. I didn't realize it before, but now from a distance, the demeanor is really ordinary.
Princess Jiyue couldn't help but urge: "Brother Huang, who do you have a crush on, you are about to declare, the dishes have been cold for a while." ”
In other words, even the queen would not dare to talk to Gu Yueze like this, but it was Princess Jiyue who spoke, so he couldn't care about her.
First, she is a daughter, second, she is nine years younger than him, and third, she can't help scolding, and if she says a sentence softly, she will go to the emperor to complain, Gu Yueze will not make herself unhappy.
Gu Yueze nodded with a very pampered gaze, and when he was facing everyone again, the Sichuan character on his brow deepened.
"Today, the king was unwell, so he left the table for too long, which delayed the selection. Many beauties have not met yet, and if the position of concubine is elected now, it will be unfair to everyone. The main palace announced that the East Palace will be selected, and it will be ...... again at a later date"
Gu Yueze became quieter and quieter the more he spoke, the smaller his eyebrows became, and finally he couldn't even speak, he lay on the table, his left and right hands trembling.
Gu Yueze attaches great importance to etiquette on weekdays, and will never lose his manners in front of so many people.
When everyone saw this, they couldn't help but be shocked.
"Brother Huang, what's wrong with you?" King Xu asked hurriedly.
When the old eunuch saw Gu Fuwei's face pale, he was immediately frightened, staggered to his knees beside Gu Yueze, and said anxiously: "Your Highness...... Your Highness? ”
"Hand ...... Hand ...... Hongu"
The people at the table looked at each other, and Gu Yueze's fingertips began to turn purple.
Bai Zhaoqin turned around and shouted at the little eunuch: "What are you doing standing?" Don't pass on the doctor yet! ”
"Yes, quick, let the fast-paced guards call the Imperial Doctor."
King Xu was so frightened that his eyes grunted, and he suddenly threw out the chopsticks in his hand, pointed to the big man on the table and shouted, "Mo ...... Could it be that the dish is poisonous!? The old eunuch was also stunned, and everyone hurriedly stopped the chopsticks.
Gu Fuwei was different, he slowly stretched out his slender ten fingers and looked at them carefully.
"King Xu, don't worry, this king has used every dish, it stands to reason that he has just recovered from a serious illness, and he is the most weak, if the food is poisonous, it should be the king who is the first to be hit."
These words gave Gu Yueze a wake-up call.
Cai Xuan invited Gu Fuwei to come, in order to show favor to this imperial uncle, he instructed the dining room early, he used fifty-eight dishes, and King Qi must also use fifty-eight dishes, and the two are next to each other, and the dishes must be exactly the same.
However, the dishes in the palace are complicated, and if you make them one by one, it will definitely be too late. It is usually served one pot at a time, and then served on separate plates.
He had the same dish as Gu Fuwei, and when he came to a plate, the old eunuch saw who didn't have it on the table, so he pointed at random, so until it was served in the hall, no one knew which dish should fall on the table of the two of them.
Since Gu Fuwei is safe and sound, it can be seen that there is nothing wrong with the meal.
Ten fingers connected to the heart, and the sharp pain passed through the heart from the fingertips, and quickly spread to the limbs and hundreds of remains.
Gu Yueze stretched his fingers straight, his fingertips didn't dare to touch them, and his skin and muscles seemed to be gradually festering.
He endured the severe pain and thought about it carefully, if there was no problem with the food, it seemed that there was no other place where something could go wrong.
Except for the series of evil things that happened today!
Thinking of this stubble suddenly, Gu Yueze's heart palpitated, and the four poems full of resentment and unwillingness came faintly from his mind, as if someone was whispering softly in his ear.
"Your Highness...... Your Highness ......"
I don't know who was screaming, the pain swallowed all his reason, and his dim gaze blurred little by little until he lost consciousness.
"Your Highness, come on, come on!" The old eunuch cried out in pain.
There was a panic in the main hall, and those who were at the top of the table spread what they had seen to the middle, and those in the middle spread the word to the last seat. No one dared to move, but everybody was talking.
Only Lizhan sat leisurely at the last seat, eating and drinking as usual, contented, and sometimes looked up at the upper seat, without much expression.
Lixiaoxiao on the side looked at her so fixedly, I don't know why, my heart is a little hairy.
Isn't she still trying to compete for favor? Now that something has happened to the prince, why is she so indifferent? If she was not mistaken, there was still a trace of sickly joy at the corner of her mouth.
"Sister Xiaoxiao." A cold voice burst out in Lishinoshi's ears.
Like a talisman, Lizhan's body suddenly stiffened, slowly turned half of her head sideways, and she caught a close glimpse of Lizhan's bright red lips resting on her ears, delicate as flowers.
"Sister ......"
"Sister Xiaoxiao is also involved in today's whistleblowing, right?"
Li Xiaoxiao couldn't deny it, after all, it was he who assisted Li Chen to search her body.
Li Xiaoxiao was so nervous that he didn't dare to speak easily, in front of such a shrewd person as Lizhan, saying more was too much.
"Sister Chen'er has drunk too much today, and she has lost the face of us leaving home, and when the selection is over, there will inevitably be rumors to spread. Grandmother and the old hall master will certainly not be happy, and when the time comes, what shall you say? ”
Lixiaoxiao understood the meaning of Lizhan, and was thinking chaotically in his heart.
Although she is the eldest sister, she makes decisions about the big and small things with Lichen on weekdays, but it is Lichen who makes suggestions in the middle.
Li Chen is so smart that she has been played around, she is a reckless man who has lost her military advisor, do you dare not follow her wishes?
Li Xiaoxiao nodded again and again: "Sister Chen'er is impulsive, she wants to toast by herself, and you have nothing to do with Sister Zhan." ”
Lizhan gently placed her palm on her trembling hand. "Fabulous. Deaf to the ear, in order to live in peace, Sister Xiaoxiao has grown up and is smarter than Sister Chen'er. ”
Lixiaoxiao smiled bitterly and nodded again.
