XXVII. Conspiracy
After Ah Fu cooked, the things she used were separated from other people's, the knives, shovels, spoons and forks were neatly hung aside, and the seasonings were also a new set of fine porcelain jars. Ah Fu's habit of cooking by himself, the salt shaker is always placed first, and now it is placed in the third position.
It is also possible that the kitchen person changed the position when he was cleaning, but at this time...... Ah Fu reached out and picked up the bottle.
Ruiyun came back from outside: "Master, I didn't catch up. There was no one to be seen on the back porch. ”
"There's no need to chase, you can't run out of the Taiping Palace anyway." Ah Fu said, "Go and call the man in charge of the kitchen." ”
The woman in charge of the kitchen is surnamed Sun, thirty miles away, and looks very attentive, but she saluted, and without waiting for Ah Fu to speak, she chattered endlessly, Ah Fu thought that Ruiyun on the road said something to her, but after hearing it, she understood that she was defending herself, explaining that she was not lazy when she was not in the kitchen, but went to the big kitchen to receive things, and specially asked the little palace maid who followed behind her to show Ah Fu the two baskets of dishes she brought.
"Sister Sun, don't worry, I'm not asking you this. I mean, someone has to watch the kitchen in the afternoon, right? What about the man? ”
Sun Gongren hurriedly summoned people, and the fat palace maid who was guarding the tea stove outside just now came in with Liu Run.
"Why are you here?" Ah Fu asked unexpectedly.
"I wanted to come and get some hot water." He simply asked, "What's going on?" ”
Ah Fu handed him the salt bottle: "I don't know if there is anything else in it." ”
Liu Run opened the bottle and sniffed it, and licked it again: "It's a little sour, there must be something else added to it." ”
Sun Gongren and the fat palace maid only realized at this time that it was not for the trivial matter that there was no one in the kitchen for a while, Sun Gongren was okay, and the fat palace maid knelt down with a frightened plop.
"Didn't you see, did anyone enter the kitchen?"
"I didn't ...... I, I didn't see anything. I just, I was so tired, I was confused for a while......"
Sun Gongren looked at her hatefully: "Shut up, you stupid girl!" That's your fault! Lady, punish her if you want! ”
Liu Run didn't want to say anything more in front of them, Ah Fu instructed Ruiyun to prepare a new salt and vinegar and other condiments, and the cutting boards, pots and pans were also replaced, and the meal was prepared first, Qinghe and Ruiyun carried the food box, Liu Run and Ah Fu were one step behind.
"You know...... What's inside? ”
Liu Run glanced at her: "I probably know, but it may not be accurate." His Highness has just instructed me not to hide anything troublesome from him in the future. Let's talk about this in front of him, and I'll talk about it twice. ”
Ah Fu was stunned for a moment, and then saw Liu Run with a smile on his face.
Ah Fu's heart was relieved, presumably the things that were added were not too important, so Liu Run was still in the mood to joke with her.
The Imperial Dining Workshop is in charge of the large and small dining rooms in the palace, and Ah Fu has also heard of the battles inside, and when the good dishes are eaten in the mouth, they suddenly become extremely salty and bitter, and it is naturally a toss of chickens and dogs. Fortunately, this kind of chaos is not too big, at least it will not go to the emperor and the queen mother and a few noble wives. But Ah Fu is not a person who specializes in this, but now he is newly married and sweet, and his hands are itchy and he wants to try to cook for Li Gu......
After feeding, Ah Fu told Li Gu what he had just done in the kitchen, and Liu Run took out the small bottle of salt from his sleeve and gently put it in front of Li Gu.
Li Gu picked up the bottle, his fingers seemed to be very strong, and he asked directly:
"What's here?"
Unlike Ah Fu's attitude, Li Gu's face immediately became difficult to look at.
"Back to Your Highness, when Your Highness was having dinner just now, I had already gone to the Imperial Pharmacy and asked someone to check it. The medicine in it is not very rare, and many ladies and beauties in the palace may be able to get it. It will not cause much damage to the human body, and moderate consumption will have some effect on aphrodisiac...... However, this medicine should not be used too much, and it should not be used often - after eating too much, it is said that it is ...... Even if you can give birth to a child, most of them will not be complete. ”
Ah Fu chuckled in his heart, and Li Gu's face was calmer than just now. But the calm is so unsettling.
She immediately reached over and grabbed Li Gu's hand.
Unsoundness may not sound to others as serious as it sounds, but for Li Gu, this is his biggest sore point.
"Check! Who put it, find out for me! ”
Ah Fu held his hand tightly, and felt that Li Gu's whole body was trembling!
"Your Highness, Your Highness, please be impatient." Liu Run still whispered softly: "Although the person who gave the drug has bad intentions, but because he was bumped into by the lady, this matter has not come to fruition, and there will be no more changes in a short period of time, and His Royal Highness does not need to be injured by this for the time being." His Royal Highness is the eldest son of the emperor, and now that he has accepted a lady, it may not take too long to give birth to the emperor's eldest grandson...... That's what many people don't want to see. It's just that finding the person who took the drug today is actually treating the symptoms but not the root cause. ”
Ah Fu listened to what Liu Run said, but his mind was all on Li Gu.
She now doesn't think it's scary to have someone drugged.
What she was afraid of was that Li Gu would be angry, or that she would do something in a fit of anger......
Liu Run's voice was soft, his tone was slow, and as soon as he turned his words, Li Gu sat quietly for a long time, and suddenly turned his head to Ah Fu and said, "Are you scared?" ”
Ah Fu hurriedly said: "No. I didn't see anything, it was Ruiyun who saw what looked like someone was coming out the back door. ”
Li Gu's hand was clenched tightly by her, and her fingertips were white, Ah Fu hurriedly let go, but Li Gu held her hand in turn.
"Ah Fu, do you complain about me? Marrying a useless husband can neither give you an official title, nor make you happy, nor even protect you...... I can't see anything, and I can't see how much you have been wronged......"
"Don't talk nonsense," Ah Fu whispered: "This kind of thing is calculated behind someone's back, even if there are eyes in the back of the head, it is impossible to prevent it." In a commoner's family, if two sons are born, even if there are only two acres of paddy fields and thatched houses, they have to fight for each other when they are separated, let alone in the palace. ”
Li Gu shook his head, although his expression was extremely restrained, he still showed anger and sorrow: "Why can't I see things when I was born? Why did the queen mother die early, the prince in the palace who was older than me and younger than me died in infancy, I don't know how many, is it that all of them are congenitally weak and sick in the womb? It's not that I don't know...... It's just that I've reached this point, and they still don't feel at ease, and they still want to force me. ”
"Be quiet." Ah Fu stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, and felt a hand pulling in his heart, and it hurt to jump and jump.
That feeling of sadness and sadness.
It's not because of myself.
It's because of Li Gu.
His world was dark, without his mother's care, and he grew up alone in this calculating court......
He longs so much for his loved ones.
When they got married, he was more solemn than her, expectant, and cautious. He was so good to her......
Ah Fu even regretted that he shouldn't have listened to Liu Run just now, and he shouldn't have told Li Gu about it......
Li Gu felt suffocated in his chest, he had endured this breath for so many years, he thought he was used to it, he was already so bad that there was no hope! But he couldn't tolerate it, he had just touched the happiness at hand, and someone was about to destroy it! His wife, his future children, those people's hands stretched too far!
A drop of water fell on the back of his hand.
It didn't seem to be a drop of water, but a spark bursting out of the hearth, and his whole body shook with it.
Li Gu reached out to touch her face and shouted a little uncertainly:
"Ah Fu?"
