Chapter 963: Listen to the Rain
There are four palace maids in total, but He Zao is impatient to deal with them, and with a wave of his hand, he said lightly: "I am noisy, you are all waiting outside, and Chunxiao alone in the house is enough." ”
Several palace maids looked at each other, glanced at each other, and then quietly withdrew.
As soon as the people went out, Chunxiao immediately looked at He Zao nervously: "Girl? ”
He Zao's face was heavy, he looked at the steaming tea on the table, and said solemnly to Chunxiao: "Chunxiao, you have to remember that in the palace, there are two kinds of people who die the fastest, one is the one who can't keep secrets, and the other is to eat at will." ”
Chunxiao showed a look of surprise on her face.
He had already pointed to those teas: "In the past few days in the palace, the food and drink here cannot be easily eaten into the stomach." ”
She looked at each other sternly: "You know what? ”
Chunxiao nodded, with a solemn look on her face: "Princess Jun, don't worry, I know what to do." ”
He Zao leaned slightly on the pillow behind him and closed her eyes to recuperate, she just stood for so long a day, she couldn't stand it a little and felt very tired.
A pleasant female voice came from outside: "Princess Jun, the meal has arrived, do you want to pass the meal?" ”
At this time, it was already past noon, and it must have been the emperor or someone around him who knew that he hadn't eaten and sent it on purpose.
I don't know if that's a good intention.
A faint sneer appeared at the corner of He Zao's mouth, and he glanced at Chunxiao, who was busy going out to pick up the food box.
The palace maid dodged, avoided Chunxiao's hand, and walked in with a smile; "Princess Jun, do you want to see the dishes for yourself?"
As she spoke, she had already walked up to He Zao in a few steps, lifted the lid of the food box, and let her see the dishes inside, but in private, her other hand quietly handed He Zao a note.
He Zao was shocked in her heart, she had already understood, she smiled slightly, quietly held the note in her hand, and asked, "What's your name?" Looks pretty smart! ”
"Back to the princess of the county, the slave is called listening to the rain." The palace maid bowed her knees and gave a generous attitude.
He Zao smiled: "It's a good name, during the time I've lived here, I'm going to trouble you and a few girls outside." ”
"Don't dare to be, the princess of the county is too polite!" After hearing the rain say these two words, he withdrew.
After Chunxiao closed the door, He Zao opened the note in his hand, on which a few big words flew "Everything is fine, don't read, don't be impatient!" ”
It was Ah Che's handwriting, He Zao was very sure after just looking at it, she took a light breath, and her mood was already a lot more relaxed.
When she didn't get the news of Ah Che just now, even if she was calm on her face, she actually tightened in her heart. Now, I finally know that he is safe and sound.
According to his meaning, let yourself stand still and don't disrupt his arrangement!
It seems that this person who listens to the rain is his person and should be able to be trusted.
Chunxiao brought out all the food and looked at He Zao inquiringly, He Zao thought about it, and said, "Can there be a silver needle?" ”
Chunxiao was stunned, then bit her lip and shook her head, and blamed herself.
She thought about everything, but she didn't think of what to do if the food she came to the palace was poisonous.
Silver needles are the best and fastest way to inspect them.
He Zao was not annoyed, groaned, and said, "Put the food aside first, we are not in a hurry to eat." You should read to me. ”
Chunxiao didn't understand what he meant, but he still did as he was told.
Lang Lang's reading sound sounded in the room.
After waiting for a while, the person named Tingyu knocked on the door and came in, and was surprised to see the food on the dining table on the side unchanged, but she was a smart one, and quickly figured out the key to it, and quietly took the food back.
After a while, a few more snacks came up, and said with a smile: "It may be that the meal just now is not to the taste of the princess of the county, so the slave maid dared to ask the master of the imperial dining room to make a few snacks for the princess of the county to taste." ”
She said as she placed a purse under the plate.
After she left, He had already opened it and saw that there were more than a dozen silver needles inside, which was enough to use in the palace during this time.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart, in the end, she was a person cultivated in the palace, and she didn't need to remind her half a sentence at all, she already understood what she meant.
I don't know how this exquisite mind was trained.
Chunxiao was very happy: "Princess Jun, these are enough." ”
He nodded early, Chunxiao took the silver needle, tried the dim sum piece by piece, the silver needle did not turn black, he knew that it was safe, and tried the tea again, it was also non-toxic.
She accompanied He Zao to eat a few pieces of tea and snacks.
In the middle of the afternoon, Na Tingyu and a few other palace maids sent another pair of soup. It is said that it is for He Zao's confinement.
He Zao was secretly surprised, and couldn't figure out whether this was the emperor's arrangement or Ah Che's arrangement?
However, she was reluctant to drink the soup made of countless Chinese medicinal herbs, who knows whether there are poisonous herbs in it, and it is difficult to detect it by silver needle test.
Two days passed, and He Zao seemed to have been forgotten to this corner by the world, no one came to look for her, and she couldn't go out.
He Zao was locked up here, but he was very calm, and the sound of reading in the air all day long was heard.
Because of his poor health, the new emperor has not been married so far, and there are only a few concubines who are underground, and now they have only been promised. They didn't dare to move around at will, they heard that Sixue Xiaozhu lived here a county princess, so they were very strange, and passed by the door of Sixue Xiaozhu a few times, and they wanted to see who the rumored famous county princess was.
But, of course, it never worked out.
They also tried to enter, but were stopped by the eunuchs who were guarding, and refused to accommodate at all.
These promises were regarded as the emperor's love for He Zao, and they were all jealous, and some embarrassing rumors spread in a small area in the palace.
Two days later, listening to the rain finally saw that he could tell the truth to He Zao.
Her speed of speech was very concise: "Don't worry, the princess of the county is all right now, the princess of the county told the slave maid to take good care of the princess of the county, he is waiting for the opportunity, and he also asks the princess of the county to endure for a few days!" ”
He Zao gave Chunxiao a look, and the latter walked to the door to vigilantly monitor the outside, and He Zao asked eagerly: "Have my two children been found?" ”
Hearing the rain, he shook his head: "There shouldn't be, the slave maid lives deep in the palace, if there is any news, you may miss it, but if the princess wants to know, the slave maid will try to inquire about it in the past few days." ”
He Zao waved his hand at her: "No, so as not to expose yourself." I'd rather believe that no news is good news now, and you reply to the king, I'm all right, please don't read it! Let him do what he planned, but there are still two little county kings, so he must do his best to protect their safety! ”
"Yes! The slave must convey the words of the princess of the county to the princess of the county! ”
