Chapter 291: I Must Go Home
Queen Xiahou Jingyao woke up in the kitchen and saw that only Mengchun was by her side to take care of her, but her body couldn't move.
"Niangniang, my princess still has to find a way to deal with the fake queen, you can only appear at the most appropriate time, and now I can only wronged you." Mengchun said softly.
About Xiahou Jingyao also figured it out, she didn't make any more trouble, thinking that her impulsiveness would only be a bad thing, it was better to listen to Ruoyi, after such a long time of getting along, she knew that Ling Ruoyi was a smart and witty woman, no wonder she would be favored by so many excellent men, and even more liked by the Queen Mother.
"Okay, I know everything, I was too impulsive just now, but how did you take me out?" Xiahou Jingyao said lightly. What she is worried about is not unreasonable, the palace is strictly checked, not to mention that it is difficult to get in, it is even more difficult to get out.
"Niangniang, don't worry, my princess will dress you up as a maidservant and go out in a carriage with her." Mengchun said with a smile.
"Yes...... However, Ruo Yi only brought the three of you with him when he came, and now there is one more person? How can it not arouse suspicion. Xiahou Jingyao said worriedly.
"Niangniang, don't worry, it's night, you can follow the princess to go out generously, and after a while, Bingyu will take the princess's token and send the slave out of the palace, so ah, you can go as a slave and maid at that time."
"It's still my sister's thoughtfulness." Xiahou Jingyao smiled lightly. As long as she can save her life, what's the big deal about the grievances now, as long as she is alive and still the queen of Yunshang, the Xiahou family can also be favored by the emperor.
Things went on as Ling Ruoyi arranged, but she herself never left the Queen Mother's palace, so naturally she also left the queen, in the name of it, let the Queen Mother be the first to see you when she opens her eyes. When the fake queen heard this, she was naturally happy, and she was able to get the favor of the queen mother without effort, which was very beneficial to her status in the harem.
At the same time, Emperor Yuchen and King Qi returned to the Queen Mother's palace at the same time, and the Queen Mother had slowly woken up at this time, waiting for Mu'er to cook porridge and come back.
Suddenly, Mu Er walked in with a small basin of hot porridge and a few empty bowls, and saw that Emperor Yuchen and King Qi were there, and just about to salute, Emperor Yuchen smiled and said: "Excuse me, if you are injured, you will be holding porridge, don't burn yourself." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Mu'er bowed slightly. Immediately, the hot porridge was brought to the table and some were served in each small bowl, and the first bowl of porridge was naturally handed to Ling Ruoxi, because the Queen Mother only asked Ling Ruohui to feed the porridge, and it seemed that she was still not at ease with others.
Then there was Emperor Yuchen and King Qi, then the queen, and Ling Ruoxi. Although Mu'er had to be fake, she couldn't help but do enough superficial work.
The fake queen scooped up a spoonful of porridge and ate it into her mouth, but she didn't expect a simple bowl of porridge to be so delicious. She had never eaten such delicious porridge. couldn't help but admire: "Mu'er's skills are really good, and my sister is still good at training." ”
Ling Ruoyi paused slightly, the corners of her mouth raised an imperceptible arc, but she still kept scooping the porridge in the bowl in her hand, "How did my sister forget, Mu'er's porridge, my sister has eaten it, didn't she deliberately let the girls around her learn it." ”
Hearing this, the fake queen suddenly pretended to remember: "Oh, look at my memory, yes, didn't Chunlan, Chunmei and Mu'er learn it at the beginning, but these two girls are useless, but they were bought and used by others." After all, there was a slight loss on this expression.
Who is acting for, this porridge is ordinary, when did my Mu'er eat it for you? Also teach Chunlan and Chunmei? It's just nothing, you impostor, you can really pretend, pretend, pretend, I want to see how long you can pretend. ”
"Queen, what you said is not honest, it is obviously a light white porridge, the mourning family eats no taste at all, it is very widowed, but you say it is very delicious, is there something wrong with the tongue of the mourning family?" The Queen Mother said displeased. Obviously, what she eats in her mouth is light and tasteless porridge, but she says that it is delicious, is it deliberately against the mourning family?
"Queen Mother, your porridge is different from other people's. That's why you can taste different. Ling Ruoyi said with a smile.
"Oh? What's the difference? Let the mourners see? The Queen Mother sat up, looked at the porridge in other people's bowls, and looked at her own, isn't it the same, except that there are some coriander and soybeans in other people's bowls, which is nothing. How can it taste different, it must be Ruoyi's girl who coaxes the mourning family.
Thinking of this, the Queen Mother put on a pitiful look and said: "The mourning family looks the same, but you all have coriander and soybeans, could it be that this cat is in the coriander and soybeans?" And the mourners don't like to eat these two things. ”
Looking at the Queen Mother's appearance of a child, Ling Ruohui thought to herself, she really responded to that sentence, old children, old children, people, the older you are, the more like children. But what about this, she can't say no, "Queen Mother, Erchen knows that you don't like to eat coriander and soybeans, but this porridge has two flavors and is not because of coriander and soybeans, the prince and I don't like to eat coriander, this is naturally not because of coriander and soybeans, Queen Mother, guess where." ”
Hearing this, the Queen Mother's playfulness suddenly rose, it was not coriander, nor porridge, but the porridge was scooped out of the same small basin, and the problem should be in everyone's bowl, but what is the difference in this bowl, that is, the food in the bowl is different, but Ruoyi said that it is not the problem of coriander and soybeans, then Mu'er put salty salt in other people's bowls.
"Uh...... This must be ......" The Queen Mother wanted to say the answer in her heart, and then glanced at King Qi, hoping to get her son's affirmation, but King Qi didn't speak, just smiled at the Queen Mother, and shook the spoon. The Queen Mother immediately understood that the problem was with the spoon.
"It must be a spoon problem, let's say, what's different about this spoon." The Queen Mother said with a smile.
The queen mother was so smart, she guessed that it was the spoon's problem, and the son told Mu Er to cook white porridge, but thinking that the royal brother and the prince were busy with business, they would definitely come to visit the queen mother, and they must not be used to eating light white porridge, so the son asked Mu Er to put the soup spoon into the salt water and cook for a few hours, so that the saltiness entered the spoon, plus soybeans and coriander, the soybeans were also boiled, and then dried on the fire. So, the porridge that everyone eats is different from that of the queen mother. Ling Ruoyi said with a smile. In fact, the interaction between King Fang Caiqi and the Queen Mother has long been fully seen, but there are some things that are not easy to say too clearly, if people know, the Queen Mother guessed the riddle, and the prince secretly helped, even if the answer was said, it would not be disgraceful.
"Hmm......" The Queen Mother stretched her tone and looked at Ling Ruoxuan with appreciation, she was really a smart girl, and only such a girl could be worthy of the god of war of the Yunshang Kingdom.
"Queen Mother, Ruoyi, this girl is really whimsical, and her son should only be everyone's porridge." Emperor Yuchen said with a smile.
"The imperial brother is busy with government affairs all day long, and wherever he has the heart to do these little things, it is just opportunistic for the concubines." Ling Ruoxuan smiled lightly.
"Hehehe......, Brother Wang, look at what Ruoyi said, if she is speculatively canceled, then wouldn't so many of my civil and military ministers be wine bags and rice bags, smart is smart, nothing to be embarrassed to admit, I think at the beginning, when I first met you, your talent made me appreciate it very much."
"Brother Huang, don't praise her like this, otherwise her tail will rise to the sky." King Qi quipped.
Hearing this, Ling Ruohui pursed her mouth and looked very aggrieved, "Brother Huang, Queen Mother, the prince said that Ruoyi has a tail, and Ruoyi is not a fox spirit, where does the tail come from." ”
The fake queen on the side laughed coldly in her heart, aren't you a vixen? Hmph, no one is more like a fox spirit than you, seduced King Qi, and seduced the emperor and King Rui, and also with the prince of Lixia, the prince of the Southern Night Kingdom, it is really the reincarnation of the nine-tailed fox. But she can't say that, her current identity is Ling Ruoyi's cousin, if she talks about her cousin like this, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of others.
"The emperor, the queen mother, Ruo Yi is coquettish with the prince." The fake queen pretended to be coquettish.
Ling Ruoyi raised her eyebrows. Hmph, you're really hard working on this imposter, but I don't know if you'll be able to put it on after three days?
At night, the Queen Mother and Emperor Yuchen must keep Ling Ruohui and King Qi to live in the palace, and Ling Ruohui will take Xiahou Jingyao out of the palace at night and stay in the palace, where can this work, it is okay for a big living person to hide for a moment and a half, and she will definitely be discovered after a long time, she can't take this risk.
Thinking of this, Ling Ruoxuan smiled lightly: "Although the queen mother's body is no longer in serious trouble, I have to go back to the house tonight to prepare another dose of medicine, so I must go back to the house to prepare it." Ling Ruoyi explained lightly.
"Is there any medicine that is not available in this palace, it's so late, you better stay in the palace." The false queen said.
"Cousin, there is a purple bead in this medicine, not to mention that it is in the palace, even in the four countries, and the last of this purple bead is in my hands, and ordinary people can't touch the purple bead, so I have to go back to the house to dispense medicine." Ling Ruoyi said lightly. also especially emphasized the two words "must", which is to inform everyone present that she needs to go back to the house to dispense medicine, and if she wants to keep it, she will keep the prince, she is determined to go home.
"That's the case, then you should pay attention to safety on the way home." Hearing this, Emperor Yuchen had to let him go, the comfort of the queen mother was the most important, anyway, they were going to enter the palace tomorrow, and it was okay to stay overnight at that time.
"Brother Huang, rest assured, Jingzhong has always been peaceful, and our safety is safe." King Qi said lightly.
When King Qi got into the carriage, he found that the person who got into the carriage later was not Mengchun, but Xiahou Jingyao. "Bingyu's martial arts are getting longer, and he found the queen at such a fast speed."
"Uh...... The prince has won the award, and the slave and maid have also been hit by mistake. Bingyu said lightly. This is obviously the prince knows everything, but, the prince, let's not play so deep, okay, can you say anything if you have anything. It's a bit of a ...... to suddenly say something like this and expose our plan It's not fun.
"This king is praising you, you did a good job, go back, you will be rewarded." King Qi leaned on the carriage and closed his eyes to recuperate.
"Thank you, Lord Wang." Bingyu responded with a fist. She really didn't know what to say, this prince, I thought that he would be much more cheerful after marrying the princess, but now he is in his original form.
Inside the carriage, back to the state where the needles could be heard again, Mu'er and Xiahou Jingyao looked at the little couple and really didn't know what to say, while Bingyu opened the corner of the curtain and looked outside......
