Chapter 208: Something Happened at the Banquet

Geng Lanyin's originally worried expression was finally calmed down, and Zhao Liuyin was unmoved, and said to the maid very calmly, "We know, you know the rules, don't let others know about this."

As he spoke, Zhao Liuyin took out a heavy purse from his body and handed it to the maid, and continued: "This is what you deserve, now you can leave the palace while there is chaos, don't let anyone find out, go."

"Thank you, Miss Zhao." The maid was ecstatic and put away her purse and left without looking back.

Geng Lanyin didn't understand why Zhao Liuyin did this, and he was still feeling sorry for the silver in his heart, "Miss Zhao, it's just a subordinate. We are the masters who let them do whatever they should do, and you even want to give them oil and water, isn't this pampering them? What if I don't listen to discipline when the time comes?"

Zhao Liuyin listened to Geng Lanyin's words, and felt very helpless, but he still pretended to patiently explain to her with a face: "After all, what we let them do is not an ordinary trivial matter, they can follow our orders to do these things, and they may also follow the instigation of others to give us out, and we will suffer at that time." So if you give them what they want before that, they will feel guilty and naturally dare not say anything. It's just spending some silver taels, what's the distress?"

What these *** people lack is what they have.

Although Geng Lanyin still couldn't figure out why Zhao Liuyin did this, he didn't bother to think about it, so he opened his mouth and changed the topic and said, "It's not too early, we still have to go to see Your Majesty, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother, don't delay too long and be condemned when the time comes."

Zhao Liuyin also understood the current situation and agreed, and he was in a very good mood at this time, just because he could see Song Qian's ugly appearance.

It's just that what they didn't expect was that Song Qian had already led the people in the imperial dining room to make the remaining ingredients into dishes with full color and flavor.

The palace maid who made the hand couldn't help but praise: "Song Niangzi is really ingenious and has superb cooking skills. I can make such a good dish with these, so I don't have to worry about being condemned."

"By your auspicious words, I hope it will not be seen by Your Majesty." Song Qian smiled, but he was still very helpless in his heart, although they were also forced to do so, but this was also a crime of bullying the king, exposing that they would all be punished.

Seeing that the palace people brought the dishes to the banquet one by one, Song Qian really let go of his hanging heart a little, now that this tricky trouble has been solved, it is time to find out the troublemakers behind him, Song Qian will definitely not let him escape.

But because Song Qian was only sent to take charge of the spoon and did not have the right to investigate, when she proposed to investigate, at first those who complimented her kept silent, because they didn't want to get into trouble.

What they think in their hearts is that this matter has nothing to do with them, and more is better than less.

This gave Song Qian a headache, and then the head chef came over and pulled her aside and said, "Song Niangzi, this dish has already been prepared and served anyway, isn't it?" There has been no news for so long, which means that Your Majesty has not seen any clues, so let this matter pass."

They are not stupid people, and after being in the palace for so long, they can naturally see that someone is deliberately targeting Song Qian, and they want to put them to death, otherwise they will not risk doing anything at the palace banquet.

Then they don't want to get into trouble.

Song Qian thought about his words carefully, and felt that there was some truth, but it didn't mean that this matter was over, she would definitely find out who the person who wanted to make trouble was.

Because the dignitaries were eating at this time, Song Qian was finally a little more relaxed and was able to rest for a while.

But suddenly, the personal eunuch next to the emperor came to the imperial dining room and looked for Song Qian's figure everywhere.

"Oh, the old slave has found you." The eunuch panted and pulled Song Qian to go out, but Song Qian, who had not yet reacted, was dragged to the banquet in the main hall.

During this period, Song Qian wanted to ask what happened, but the eunuch didn't give her this opportunity at all, and finally the two people stopped in front of the main hall, and Song Qian hurriedly asked, "Father-in-law, what happened?"

Song Qian couldn't help but bear it

The heart is not that there is a problem with the dishes they make.

The eunuch replied, "It is Your Majesty and the Queen Mother who want to see you, probably because your craftsmanship is so good that you can be rewarded in front of all the dignitaries, which no one else can ask for, Lady Song, you should cherish it."

This made Song Qian breathe a sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't a punishment.

"Xuanmin's daughter Song Qian."

As the eunuch's voice fell, the ministers and rich children who were still negotiating around at the banquet stopped what they were doing and looked out of the hall in unison.

In full view of everyone, Song Qian was introduced into the main hall.

He Yujin said to the ingots who were feasting, "Look, it's Song Niangzi here."

Yuan Bao immediately put down the chopsticks in his hand, because this was the palace, so he didn't rush to Song Qian, but stared at her tightly.

The same is true for Ji Changye.

At the beginning of the banquet, Ji Changye was absent-minded, and Changfeng guessed that he was thinking about Song Qian.

"Grass people Song Qian pays a greeting to Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother." Song Qian saluted according to the etiquette that Ji Hanshuang had taught her before, which made Ji Hanshuang sitting on the side seat very satisfied, and at the same time made Ji Changye breathe a sigh of relief.

"Flatten." The emperor smiled, it can be seen how satisfied he is with Song Qian's preparation of the palace banquet.

Thankfully, they didn't find any clues in the dishes. Song Qian's hanging heart finally let go.

"Presumably Mrs. Song has been tired recently because of the preparation of the palace banquet, and the eldest princess has already told me, it seems that I am not wrong. Someone came, Song Niangzi prepared the palace banquet meritorious. A hundred taels of gold, a house."

The emperor rewarded Song Qian in front of everyone in the hall, and now those who had ghosts in their hearts couldn't sit still.

The Queen Mother frowned slightly, very dissatisfied with the emperor's approach. Although Song Qian did a good job this time, if such a valuable reward was not for the people who had meritorious service to the country, they would definitely not be able to bear it, so it would make people all over the world criticize, and those guests in the court and China would not be able to sit still.

At that time, it will still be their Ji family's country that threatens them.

But the emperor has a lot of opportunities, how could he not think of this for many years? Before making this decision, he carefully considered it, and it was precisely because there was still Ji Changye in the court that those people didn't dare to do anything, so he would be happy to do it for a while.

Song Qian didn't expect that he would get such a valuable reward so easily, and he was stunned for a while. Thanks to Ji Hanshuang's secret glance reminder, Song Qian came to his senses and knelt down to thank him.

Geng Lanyin, who had already returned to the banquet, saw everything, and immediately became indignant, jealous of how Song Qian deserved this honor?

"A country woman is so arrogant, Miss Geng, I see that this reward should be given to you, not happen to fall on her head." The rich lady who was not used to seeing it instigated Geng Lanyin and said.

And the other party really took these words seriously, so he looked at Song Qian's eyes a little vicious, as if he was going to do something.

Zhao Liuyin, who was not far away, heard their words, and thought to himself, even if he was dissatisfied, he didn't say anything. She knew that if she came out at this time and said bad things about Song Qian, she would be questioning Junwei, and she would be convicted of the following crimes, so she didn't speak.

After working for so long, Song Qian could finally sit down and rest, and the emperor specially vacated the seat next to Ji Changye and asked her to sit down.

Ji Changye couldn't hide his joy, but he still pretended to be calm.

Just as he was hesitating and about to speak, suddenly a noble lady was at the banquet, and she almost fainted in front of everyone.

The emperor didn't expect this kind of thing to happen at the festive palace banquet, so he hurriedly sent the imperial doctor.

The originally lively hall suddenly filled the hall with a dead silence. Everyone dared not come out and waited for the next command,

Xiao Xirou hurriedly comforted the somewhat anxious emperor and said, "Your Majesty, it is normal for someone to get sick, and it is not a big deal, you better announce that the banquet will continue, otherwise it will cause chaos." Now the big picture matters.

The Emperor hesitated.

Although the noble lady just now did not faint, she said no to chest tightness and shortness of breath

In a word, he is still very weak.

Song Qian took advantage of the chaos to come to Ji Changye's side, and after covering Yuanbao's eyes and protecting Ke's side, he asked Ji Changye worriedly, "Lord, what should I do?" Why can't this matter go smoothly? She just wanted to go back to Su Louzhen with Yuanbao safely after completing this matter, but she didn't expect there to be so many stumbling blocks on the road.

Ji Changye didn't know what was going on now, so he couldn't jump to conclusions, so he could only comfort Song Qian and say, "It's okay, Song Niangzi's matter has nothing to do with you, and it won't involve you."

But after the words fell, the imperial physician walked to the center of the hall, saluted the emperor respectfully, and said, "Your Majesty, this young lady has chest tightness and shortness of breath, which is caused by eating food that is restrained."

Hearing this, everyone's eyes focused on Song Qian's body,

Song Qian was also stunned in place and couldn't believe it, and when he asked him again, he knew the ins and outs and got the answer.

It's because there's a problem with the food she's cooking.

Geng Lan Yin was proud, it seemed that their plan had succeeded, and now it was up to Song Qian to make a fool of himself.

Zhao Liuyin was unmoved on the surface, but he was still looking forward to seeing what happened next.

At this time, all the dignitaries and dignitaries did not dare to move their chopsticks anymore, and put them down one after another.

Xiao Xirou also deliberately exclaimed, "Your Majesty, this Diao people dare to do something on the dishes, which shows that they have ill intentions. For the safety of His Majesty and the Queen Mother, the concubine asked for a silver needle to test for poison." If something comes out, then she can get rid of Song Qian without much effort.

Although the Queen Mother looked down on Song Qian's background, after several dealings, she could see a little bit of her essence, and she was not sure that she could do something to poison the dishes. But now that this situation has been reached, Song Qian can only use this method if she wants to prove her innocence, and she must also nod and agree.

But this is not good for Song Qian's reputation.

And now that he wants to test drugs, Song Qian will be suppressed. Seeing the soldiers move, Ji Changye suddenly couldn't sit still, got up and rushed to the main hall.

"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, there is something strange about this matter, and you can't jump to conclusions. It's better to let people go first, and the minister is willing to vouch for Song Niangzi." Ji Hanshuang was worried that Ji Changye would do something impulsively, so he hurriedly walked to the main hall and drove him aside, and then said these words.

Song Qian was trained by her, so she naturally didn't believe that she could do these things.

He Yujin didn't believe it either, but now Xuan Ce was still here, so even if he was worried, he could only take out the ingots that he insisted on staying.
