Chapter 575: Above the Crown (4)

A palace maid, how can she be favored, it's nothing more than that.

Just took a bath, Xie Zhenzhen thought about it, she didn't want to be that jealous person, as soon as she entered the palace, she would upset His Royal Highness the Prince.

She hung the word "virtuous" written by the queen mother in her bedroom, and she was bound to be a virtuous and generous princess and won the praise of everyone in the palace.

After the crown prince went to court, Shen Dan asked the imperial dining room to bring the prepared breakfast.

Xie Zhenzhen bathed and changed clothes, dressed up decently, her fair and ruddy face was full of joy, and her eyes flashed, implying the pride of wanting to stop.

After seeing her sit down, Shen Dan stepped forward and said softly, "Crown Princess, breakfast was delivered from the imperial dining room early in the morning. According to the rules of the palace, breakfast is one porridge and one meal every day, four dishes and one soup, plus eight dishes of dim sum. Niangniang entered the palace yesterday, and the minions in the palace don't know your taste preferences very well, so the slaves and maids let them prepare some according to the preferences of His Royal Highness the Prince, please try it, whether it suits your appetite or not...... "Her attitude is respectful, her tone is gentle, and her words are even more leaky.

According to the things prepared according to His Highness's preferences, even if she doesn't like it, it is not difficult to say the word "no".

Fortunately, Xie Zhenzhen was not very pampered at home before, and when she heard this, she just nodded with a smile: "It's hard for you to think so thoroughly." This palace is fine, what His Royal Highness likes, this palace must like. ”

She seemed to have something to say, Shen Dan lowered her head and served porridge and vegetables for her.

"This eight-treasure rice looks exquisite, and this palace likes it."

"This cloud cake is also sweet, and it is indeed good."

Xie Zhenzhen's appetite was surprisingly good, and she ate with great interest, and tasted everything.

Shen Dan stood aside, expressionless, quietly watching.

Is she really as docile and harmless as she seems? Let's see.

After eating a meal, it was already half an hour's work.

Shen Dan estimated that the prince would definitely go down early today, so he wanted to turn around and go out to prepare tea and snacks for His Royal Highness.

Who knows, Xie Zhenzhen also has this intention, Shen Dan naturally won't fight with her about this, but just followed.

Xie Zhenzhen personally boiled a bowl of porridge for the prince, which was carefully and exquisitely boiled, and looked very appetizing.

After a while, the prince came back from the court, with a flat expression, and when he saw Xie Zhenzhen personally serving the porridge bowl, he couldn't help but smile slightly: "Why do you have to do this?" ”

The doting tone made people feel overjoyed.

"The concubine saw that His Highness was working hard, so she carefully boiled this bowl of porridge."

Changsheng smiled and nodded, then looked at Shen Dan and said, "Use it." ”

As soon as these words came out, Shen Dan stepped forward in time, picked up the spoon on the table, and was about to scoop the porridge in the bowl.

Xie Zhenzhen was slightly stunned when she saw this, and then said, "Let's come to this palace......"

She looked up at Shen Dan, and her eyes suddenly became sharp. Doesn't she know the rules very well? How did you become so bold now?

Who knows, Changsheng shook his head: "No need, let her come." ”

Shen Dan ignored Xie Zhenzhen's gradually difficult face, took a mouthful of porridge in front of her, and then tasted it.

She took only one bite, then put down the spoon and took two steps back.

Xie Zhenzhen's eyebrows frowned slightly, a little unclear, just when she was confused, Changsheng said lightly: "This is my rule here, you can get used to it slowly." But whatever is in the mouth, Shen Dan will test the poison for me......"

Test for poison?! Xie Zhenzhen's face turned pale, and she quickly knelt down on her knees and said, "Your Highness, this porridge was made by the concubine herself." How can this be poisonous? ”

She suddenly became uneasy, how could this have anything to do with poison His Royal Highness the Crown Prince What does this mean? Was he suspicious of her? It all happened so fast that she didn't have time to react.

All of a sudden, everything was silent. The atmosphere in the hall suddenly condensed, and Shen Dan kept his head down and stood still.

Xie Zhenzhen knelt on the ground, feeling deeply frightened and uneasy in her heart.

She waited and waited, not knowing when she should wait. She didn't even know if she should stand up or keep kneeling.

I don't know how long it took, Shen Dan slowly spoke: "Your Highness, please use it." ”

Hearing this, Changsheng glanced at her, and then stretched out his hand to Xie Zhenzhen, who was flustered.

Xie Zhenzhen hesitated a little and slowly stretched out her hand.

Changsheng pulled her to his side and sat down, then picked up the new spoon handed over by Shen Dan, tasted a bite of porridge, and slowly tasted the taste: "Not bad, it's delicious." ”

Xie Zhenzhen couldn't calm down for a while, and her eyes were full of puzzlement when she looked at Changsheng.

Changsheng smiled and ate half a bowl of porridge, then picked up the teacup and rinsed his mouth, took her hand and said, "Let's go, come with me to meet my father and queen mother." ”

Xie Zhenzhen had no choice but to hold back her emotions when she heard this, and went to Cining Palace with the prince.

It stands to reason that they should go to see the sick emperor first, but Changsheng changed his mind, and he decided to listen to the queen mother first.

Because of what just happened, Xie Zhenzhen's mood was not as high as before, and she always felt that there was a pimple in her heart.

Meng Xilan knew that they would come, and unlike yesterday, she still saw them through the curtain today.

"There was some wind blowing in the main palace yesterday, and there were some rubellas on my body. So, that's all I have to do today......"

"Mother, are you alright?" Xie Zhenzhen hurriedly spoke, looking concerned.

Through the thin curtain, Meng Xilan couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, but she could hear her voice.

"From now on, it's time for you to call this palace 'Queen Mother'. Meng Xilan gently reminded her.

It stands to reason that she will not easily forget such an important matter. But she forgot, why? Something must have happened.

Changsheng turned his head to look at Xie Zhenzhen, still in a gentle tone: "Yes, from now on, you are the same as me." ”

Xie Zhenzhen smiled sweetly when she heard this, and the pimple in her heart was finally a little smaller.

"Looking at you and Hemeimei, this palace is happy in my heart." Meng Xilan changed her words, and then looked at Changsheng and said: "This morning, Jiao Changqing said that your father's illness has recurred, and now he is applying needles to get through, so it's better for you not to go over for the time being." ”

Changsheng knew the severity of the words when he heard this, and nodded: "Erchen understands." ”

Xie Zhenzhen also followed suit: "Erchen knows." ”

Meng Xilan was inconvenienced, so she didn't keep them much, but just let them sit for a while.

After they left, Meng Xilan called Baozhu to her side and asked about the Tai Gong.

"The slave and maid paid a little attention, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess had a round room last night, and the Crown Princess also boiled porridge for His Royal Highness this morning."

When Meng Xilan heard this, she raised her eyebrows slightly.

"It seems that the prince is still very satisfied with her."

Baozhu nodded in agreement: "The crown princess is gentle and lovely, Your Highness will definitely like it." ”

Meng Xilan smiled silently.

Like...... For Changsheng, it is difficult to like someone.

After leaving Cining Palace, Changsheng and Xie Zhenzhen separated: "I'm going to see my father, you go back to the palace first." ”

Even if you can't see your father, it's okay to see Jiao Changqing. My father's illness was capricious, which should not have happened.

Xie Zhenzhen nodded hesitantly, thinking to herself, the emperor is seriously ill, and it is better that he does not appear.

She has just gotten married, and she is full of joy, while the emperor is sick.

Back in the Tai Palace, the first person to catch up was Shen Dan.

For some reason, she seems to be everywhere.

Because of the events in the morning, Xie Zhenzhen was disgusted with her, but she didn't let herself show her color, and just told her to come over and talk to her.

"What do you have to command?"

"In the morning, the test of drugs ......" Xie Zhenzhen hesitated a few times, but still asked.

Shen Dan was deliberately silent for a moment when he heard this.

"How can the food I make with my own hands be poisonous? Why doesn't Your Highness believe me......" Xie Zhenzhen muttered as if talking to herself.

Shen Dan blinked, and then said, "Niangniang really doesn't have to be sad. This rule is not set by His Royal Highness, but by the Queen Mother......"

She was only halfway through the story, and then she said no more. Xie Zhenzhen was even more confused.

"In this matter, the slave and maid really shouldn't talk too much, so please ask the mother to ask His Royal Highness." Shen Dan hesitated: "Niangniang, you and Your Highness are husband and wife, husband and wife are of the same heart, there should be no secrets to speak of." ”

As soon as she said this, she couldn't help but regret it a little. She's a little out of measure.

Sure enough, Xie Zhenzhen's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she faintly revealed a little coolness.

"Why can't you tell Hongu? Are you deliberately selling off with Hongu? ”

Hearing this, Shen Dan hurriedly knelt on the ground, shook his head and said, "The slave doesn't dare." ”

"If you don't dare, you can say it." Xie Zhenzhen was very anxious. She even complained a little about the elders in the family, why didn't they find out everything in the palace, they only knew that the prince had a concubine by his side, but they didn't know that this slave was very important to the prince.

Shen Dan groaned slightly, and then continued: "The slave maid was originally the piano master of the music workshop. Later, she was selected by the queen to go to Cining Palace, and the mother took a fancy to the loyalty of the slave maid, so she asked the slave maid to serve the prince...... At that time, there were a lot of things in and out of the palace, and the mother was very worried about His Royal Highness the Prince's food, clothing, and daily life, so the slave maid was responsible for testing the poison for His Royal Highness the Prince! This is the order of the queen mother, no matter what food is prepared for Her Royal Highness. Slaves and maids have to try it for themselves......"

She gave it all and didn't hold back. There is no need for her to hide this kind of thing, because she will know sooner or later.

After Xie Zhenzhen listened, her expression was complicated, and her mood was even more complicated.

I see, she's just a pawn.

"Niangniang, the slave maid is just a person who tests poison, a person who is ready to sacrifice his life for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince anytime and anywhere." Shen Dan said in a quiet tone.

Xie Zhenzhen was stunned again when she heard this, she raised her eyes to look at Shen Dan, not believing that she would have such courage and ability.

"Are you really willing to die for the crown prince?" She looked at her with contempt.

Shen Dan lowered his head and said in an extremely serious tone: "The slave is willing to do anything for His Royal Highness the Prince, whether it is life or death!" ”

When Xie Zhenzhen heard this, she looked at her as if she was looking at a monster, she had never seen such a person, never in her life.
