Chapter 17: The Prince's Scapegoat
The set of white jade tea set was a gift from the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which was extremely precious, and the emperor gave it to the seventh son Murong Ke, and even the emperor's grandson Murong Changtian did not give it. At that time, the world was rumored that the emperor was extremely favored by Murong Ke.
Today, that set of treasures was destroyed in her hands. Although it was ordered by Murong Ke, in terms of the emperor's favor and connivance with him, she is the prince's scapegoat.
Why did he harm her?
In anger, she glared.
Murong Ke smiled slightly, "This king doesn't need any reason to kill someone. However, if you think that spilling food is not the cause of death, then the king will find you a capital crime. ”
Shi Zhongyu was speechless.
Well, if she was killed, she would feel that her life was worth it. Moreover, today she has personally seen the extent to which His Royal Highness King Yu is messing around.
In order to give her a boring reason to be killed, he actually broke such a precious thing. But I always feel that his behavior is so sad, is there a royal secret? But no matter what secrets the royal family has, no matter what the reason for the emperor's unconditional favor for King Yu, why bring her in.
Before she chose to enter the palace, she should find a fortune teller to calculate, whether it would be more pleasant to stay outside and face the pursuit of the bearded man.
Thinking of this, the obscene face of the word-measuring fake Taoist priest suddenly appeared in her mind. Hmph, not at all, she doesn't even feel like she's going to get out of the way.
Besides, does Murong Ke know how to read minds? She was just thinking in a thought, how did he know?
"Your Highness, you are such a. I like to listen to the sound, and I won't smash some coarse porcelain cups and plates. A female crown walked over and blamed him unabashedly.
She was wearing a tooth-white makeup gauze robe, combing an ingots, only a jade swallow hairpin pinned to her head, and a jasper bracelet on her wrist. In his hand, he held a broom tied with golden grass, and as he spoke, he began to beat the fragments on the ground.
A girl kneeling on the side to deliver food had flexible eyes, and hurriedly stepped forward to help, and the female crown stared at the corners of her eyes slightly raised, "Who told you to get up, kneel on the side!" I can't afford to use your people in the East Kitchen, and if I accidentally hit any kind of guy who does the work when I turn around, how can I still serve my master. As he spoke, he glared at Shi Zhongyu's appearance again, and his personality was obviously extremely pungent.
"Light smoke, when is it your turn to speak." Murong Ke said lightly.
Qingyan immediately lowered his head and concentrated on sweeping up the debris, in a proper manner.
Shi Zhongyu's heart couldn't help but twitch.
Murong Ke has four beautiful maids by his side, who are specially serving him in his diet, daily life, and daily life, and it is said that he still has martial arts. The wind is light smoke. Flowers, named Jieyu. Snow, called plain wrap, month, named silver plate. Given that there were more than one person who screamed when he threw the jade cup just now, Shi Zhongyu took out his mind to observe secretly and found that they were standing not far from Murong Ke's side.
The four maids are exactly the same dress, and their dusty appearance is more like a cultivator than Murong Ke. At least, the four beauties of the family are definitely not demons. It's just that although they are dressed the same, they can still clearly distinguish the differences between them.
The light smoke looks straightforward and spicy, and the gentle expression must be the explanation. Su wrap, listening to the name, is the cold one. As for the silver plate, it's the round face that is amiable.
However, although the legend says that Murong Ke dotes on them very much, it seems that the rules are still very strict. Qingyan should be the most daring one, but Murong Ke said lightly, she didn't dare to say half a word more.
From this point of view, although Murong Ke is messing around, he is not confused. But is he being ordered to cultivate? Obviously it is for pleasure, not only did he specialize in repairing the dojo in the lake, ** to the delicious vegetarian food, but also the four beautiful maids dressed as female Taoist priests waiting by his side.
He's too blessed, isn't he?
"Your Highness, do you want to tell them not to talk too much?" The silver platter with a round face stepped forward.
Murong Ke shook his head, and his gaze suddenly became a little gloomy. Shi Zhongyu saw it on the side, and suddenly felt that he might want the news of breaking the imperial treasure to be spread. But this kind of prospect is only afraid that it is not optimistic, and people who often survive in the courtyard of the deep house, even if they are rookies like her, understand that some words are going to rot in their stomachs.
Everyone wants a good reputation, but he wants a bad reputation, I have to say, this is really a strange and worthy of gossip.
"You." Murong Ke pointed at Shi Zhongyu, "I knocked over this king's dinner, so I went to the kitchen to make it again." ”
"Your Highness." Shi Zhongyu was a little embarrassed, "The little ones don't know how to cook food." ”
"Or do you want to be boarded?" Murong Ke raised his eyebrows.
Shi Zhongyu didn't say a word, and immediately bowed down and retreated, knowing that the practitioner was Junjie.
Looking at her thin back image of being chased by a ghost and fleeing, Murong Ke narrowed his eyes.
This little family is different, bold, fierce, and patient, but he is very cunning at critical moments, and these very contradictory qualities are concentrated in one person, which is really incomprehensible. It can't have a special origin, right? Someone can't be sent against him again, right? If so, it's fun, he's stuck in Kyoto, he can't go back to the fiefdom, he can't be too boring.
"What's that low-level family name?" He asked casually.
Immediately, someone who knows the opportunity will come forward and report back.
Murong Ke listened, didn't say anything, but lay back on the rattan chair. The self-explained words stepped forward and sent the little girls to go back. Then, together with the plain wrap and the silver plate, he helped the light smoke clean up the mess all over the ground.
No matter the rough work, as long as it concerns Murong Ke, the four of them take care of it single-handedly, and they never fake it to others. Because they all know that His Highness does not like strangers approaching or touching his things. Although in this Yuwang Mansion, in addition to the master, the four of them have the highest status. Even, in terms of trust, even the side concubine Zhao Bifan is inferior to them.
However, King Yu seemed to be particularly interested in the low-level little family named Shi Zhongyu, and they exchanged glances, but they didn't say anything.
On the other side, Shi Zhongyu was walking on the way back to the east kitchen, worrying about what to eat.
She can cook and is not basically non-housework like many white-collar women. Her father is a traditional person, so she can cook good food, know how to take care of the elderly and children, can make money to support herself, can be regarded as decent and kind, and looks good. The sad thing is that such a five-good new woman has no man to appreciate before she is reborn.
It's just that she doesn't know how to cook vegetarian dishes, because she is a meatless person, and now that "demon Dao" wants to eat fasting, she really can't do anything. Unless you fry two greens, but that's too simple. Come to think of it, I made baby food for my cousin's daughter back then, although the taste is too light, but it looks good, and you can have some snacks, right? She really couldn't think of any more tricks. I hate it, why didn't I take a chef certificate in the first place?
"Yo, why did you come back when you were drenched?" As soon as she entered the door of the east kitchen, a sharp-eyed daughter-in-law saw Shi Zhongyu's embarrassed appearance and screamed exaggeratedly, just enough for the entire kitchen to hear.
So, a group of women ran out of Hulala, looking at Shi Zhongyu like an alien creature.
"Could it be that you fell into the lake?" The right-minded person asked with a little sympathy and amusement.
"What's going on?" Sister-in-law Fan is still more serious as a leader, and asks directly about the work situation.
"All the food given to His Highness has been spilled." Shi Zhongyu said helplessly.
All around, there was the sound of gasping.
"What do you say you can do? looks smart, but stupider than a pig. Mrs. Zhou took the opportunity to scold, gloating. The meaning is clear: Hmph, you still want to tip? Want to show your face in front of your master? Now, if you don't pick up a layer of skin, even if your ancestors burn high incense.
Shi Zhongyu didn't bother to pay attention to her, and only looked at Sister-in-law Fan.
"Where did you knock it over?" Sister-in-law Fan's brow furrowed into a pimple.
In her opinion, the food must have been spilled before it reached His Highness's eyes, otherwise she would be seriously injured if she didn't die now. Now, Shi Zhongyu is coming back to make up another table for her. She didn't want Shi Zhongyu to die, but she could make another table of vegetarian food of this level, which was not something that could be done in a moment. Moreover, the plates, dishes, chopsticks and plates for His Royal Highness King Yu were all high-quality porcelain, and they were broken so much that even if they sold the entire East Kitchen, they couldn't afford to pay for it.
Now, even if she can make up another table of vegetarian food, she can't do it. Because, someone has to be on top of this. If she does it again, it means that she will carry the work. She felt that Shi Zhongyu was hateful but pitiful, but she couldn't press such a big thing, so she could only protect herself first.
"Knocked over in front of His Highness." Shi Zhongyu faced all kinds of eyes and said calmly.
The pumping sound was louder, and a few people even hiccuped in shock. What's more, come up and pull her hand and touch her waist to see if she is a ghost. After all, it's a miracle that after such a big disaster, you can still come back with a holographic full shadow.
Shi Zhongyu hurriedly took a few steps forward and shook off those hands that came out of nowhere. Is she a boy now? A group of married women are so perverted to touch and touch like this.
"What did Your Highness say?" Sister-in-law Fan's eyes were also wide.
"Your Highness said that I would like to cook and send it to you. and when he eateth with pleasure, he is forgiven of my sins. The latter sentence was completely nonsense, but she estimated that this was what Murong Ke meant. Even if it's not, she has to firmly believe that it is now, otherwise what else will she cook, just make a bowl of arsenic porridge and poison him.
Besides, this is the only way to help the people in the kitchen when they are cooking, and to keep them from secretly causing trouble. Otherwise, no one can afford to track it down layer by layer.
Sure enough, before the words fell, everyone looked at her a little differently. At least, it's no longer like looking at a dead person.
Coincidentally, at this time, the other girls who had delivered food came back. Sister-in-law Fan asked hastily, talked to Shi Zhongyu for eight or nine, and finally believed Shi Zhongyu's words.
"In that case, let's hurry up and prepare." Sister-in-law Fan said, "Xiaoyu, what are you going to do, hurry up and make a list, and let everyone help you get started." If His Royal Highness really condemns the crime, Xiaoyu will not be able to live, and the people in the East Kitchen will have to eat melons and fall with him! ”
As soon as these words came out, the originally weirdly quiet east kitchen instantly became noisy. Some people say that the jade in the stone is harmful, but most of them say that Mrs. Zhou should not recommend her to do such an important thing as a young family member who has only just entered the house.
Mrs. Zhou was angry and retorted, "Didn't you object at the time? Besides, isn't Your Highness not yet furious? Maybe this kid will be fine at all if he gets into the eyes of His Highness. Look at him like that, he's a little bit of a! ”
"Who?" Before everyone could react, a voice came from the kitchen door.
