Ye Zhen found out that Hyun stopped listening, and also knew that it was because of Fei'er's persuasion that she didn't go. The doubts in her heart still couldn't be eliminated. She became more and more suspicious about whether Hyun was really stupid. She wanted to test it, but she didn't dare to use too harsh methods, because Now Ning Sheng values Hyun more and is afraid of getting angry, so he can only try it in a small way, but how?
After finishing lunch, Hyun thought that she had to find something to do for herself. Otherwise, if she eats and sleeps all day long, she will rot in such a decadent life, and she will have to figure out how to go back.
I was holding my head and was lost in thought when I suddenly heard the roll call outside:
"The Queen has arrived!"
Immediately afterwards came the voice of "The Queen is a thousand years old, a thousand years old." Hyun felt a chill rush up his spine and a numbness on his scalp. I really don't know how the emperors of the past dynasties felt when dealing with so many women. Anyway, This woman has already given Hyun a headache.
She was grumbling in her heart, greeting Ye Zhen's eighteen generations of ancestors, but on the surface she still had to bow obediently, and looking at the ground just a few feet away from her eyes, she even greeted her ancestors!
Ye Zhen sat on the main seat, looked at Hyun below who was bowing politely, and sneered softly:
"I haven't seen you in a few days. Miss Hyun has made some progress."
Hyun silly silly replied:
"Thank you, Madam, for your good teachings."
Ye Zhen covered her mouth and smiled:
"Hey, not only have you learned the etiquette, but your little mouth has also become sweeter. Get up quickly, the ground is cold," he waved to the other servants, "You all should also get back on your feet."
Hyun looked at Fei'er, Fei'er pointed to a chair with her eyes, and Hyun sat on it. Ye Zhen smiled scornfully in her heart, and waved to a palace maid who came with her. Gong'e put a beautiful food basket on Hyun. On the table next to you:
"I haven't seen Miss Hyun for many days. I came to see you today. The weather is getting hotter. Be careful not to suffer from heat stroke. These are the snacks I asked the imperial chef to make. I sent some to each palace. Miss Hyun also wants to try them."
Hyun cursed in his heart:
Show your courtesy for nothing! Either adultery or theft!
But Ye Zhen had already said so. As the second largest master in the harem, how could she dare to refuse? In order to continue her stupidity to the end, she said with a stupid face:
"Is it for me to eat?" Just as he was about to lift the lid of the basket, Fei'er coughed quietly and signaled to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen rolled her eyes with disdain:
"No need to be too polite, Miss Hyun, let's have a taste."
Hyun Le rubbed her hands together and couldn't wait to open the lid of the basket. However, the smell inside almost broke her heart. It was very strong, a very strong smell of Chinese medicine. The expressions of Fei'er and Niao who were standing aside changed. Change.
Such a strong smell of medicine made Hyun really tremble a little, but then she thought about it, now Ning Sheng still values herself more, Ye Zhiding didn't dare to harm her so blatantly, so he calmed down, and in order to cover up his stunned look, he looked surprised. He said to Ye Zhen:
"The snacks given by the empress are so beautiful that I can't bear to eat them."
Ye Zhen rolled her eyes in her heart and smiled on the surface:
"If Miss Hyun likes it, I can ask the imperial chef to make more and send it to you."
Hyun looked stupid again:
"Will the empress give me snacks in the future? Is she still so beautiful?"
"Of course."
Hyun seemed to have never seen the world before, staring at the snacks with greedy eyes, rubbing her hands again, taking out a piece and throwing it into her mouth. Fei'er and Niao Xin were so scared that their throats were raised, although they also knew that Ye Zhen It was impossible to harm Hyun so openly, but if something happened, their lives would be in danger, and the clothes on their backs were soaked with sweat.
Of course, it was impossible for Hyun to really swallow it in one gulp. She tasted it first, and pretended to be crazy if something was not right. But when she tasted it, it was coptis. When she was a child, when her stomach was not good and she couldn't take traditional Chinese medicine, the taste of coptis was unforgettable.
After learning that it was Coptis chinensis, she ate it with confidence, eating it in a very shameless way, and even smacked her mouth loudly. Not to mention Ye Zhen's, even Gong E, who she brought with her, looked disgusted.
After eating two pieces, Xuan didn't dare to eat any more. Coptis chinensis is a food from the great cold. She didn't know how much Ye Zhen had put in. She was worried that she would eat it badly, so when she ate the third piece, she threw it into her mouth and spit it out again. It was bitter.
With a straight face he said:
"It's so bitter!" She even cried as she said it, "It's so bitter. Why is it so bitter?"
The servants in the garden all felt weak. This was a gift from the queen. How could they show disgust in front of Ye Zhen.
Fei'er hurriedly stepped forward and whispered comfort:
"How can it be bitter? That was a gift from the Queen. Such a beautiful snack must be delicious."
Ke Hyun raised the piece of snack she had spit out in front of her and said with a tearful voice:
"It's really bitter. If you don't believe it, try it."
Fei'er looked at the snack in front of her that was still dotted with saliva and felt nauseated:
"The empress gave this to Miss Hyun, how can I eat it?"
Secretly, he showed Hyun the movements of beheading, but today, Hyun was determined to make the matter bigger, so he pretended not to see it and cried loudly:
"It's really painful! Why doesn't Fei'er believe me? It's too painful! Is your tongue gone?"
After saying that, he cried and rolled on the floor. No matter how hard Fei'er and Niao tried to coax him, they couldn't coax him. A fat little eunuch outside the house, who was called Dun by Xun, took a look at the situation and quietly ran to report to Ning Sheng.
After dinner, Ning Sheng was about to take a break to watch the memorial. Suddenly Eunuch Jing ran in and told Hyun the situation. Ning Sheng was stunned. It was impossible for a smart woman like Ye Zhen to harm Hyun publicly, but
It was impossible for a fool to tell lies. He couldn't understand, so he had no choice but to follow Dun to the garden.
Before reaching the gate of the garden, she heard Hyun's cry. When she entered the garden, she found that it was already in a mess. Ye Zhen looked at Hyun at a loss.
Ning Sheng walked up to Hyun and pulled her up from the ground:
"What's going on? Why are you crying like this?"
Hyun looked like she was crying and said:
"Bitter, so bitter!"
As soon as she spoke, Ning Sheng could smell the strong smell of medicine in her mouth. He couldn't help but frowned and glared at Ye Zhen:
"what happened?!"
Before doing this, Ye Zhen had anticipated everything that might happen and had thought about how to deal with it. She was pretending to be "at a loss" to others, so when Ning Sheng asked this question, she seemed to have come back to her senses.
Pu knelt at Ning Sheng's feet:
"I don't know, Zi Tong. Zi Tong just came to see Miss Hyun. He thought that Miss Hyun must like sweets, so he asked the imperial chef to make some snacks. But, what's going on?"
Ning Sheng looked at the table and saw several exquisite snacks in the food basket. He walked towards the snacks in confusion, but was pulled back by Hyun:
"Bitter! Bitter! Your Majesty, brother, don't eat it!"
Ning Sheng touched her head and continued walking towards the snacks. As soon as he leaned over and picked up the snacks, he smelled a medicinal smell and angrily brushed the basket off the table:
"Why do snacks have such a strong medicinal smell?! Zi Tong, tell me what's going on?!"
Ye Zhen asked in surprise:
"Medicine, it smells like medicine? Why, why does it smell like medicine?"
Ning Sheng suppressed his anger:
"Go and smell it yourself."
Ye Zhen picked up a piece of snack from the ground with trembling hands. Before she even put her nose to it, she was choked by the smell of the medicine. She admired Hyun for being able to eat two pieces with such a strong smell of medicine. If he wasn't really stupid, this person would be terrible.
The palace lady who threw her away like a hot potato turned back and scolded her angrily:
"How is this going?!"
Gong E had already knelt on the ground. When she heard Ye Zhen's scolding, she crawled on the ground with her upper body and said in panic:
"I don't know, this slave. It was given to me by the imperial cook."
Ning Sheng sat in a chair, pulled Hyun over, took a piece from the candy box handed over by Eunuch Jing and fed it to her, and then said coldly:
"Which royal chef? Call him."
Gong'e ran out in a hurry, and then the imperial doctor came and took Xuan's pulse to confirm that there was nothing wrong with her. Ning Sheng's expression softened a little.
Hyun was shocked. She had only seen this battle on TV. When it was her turn, she felt that she might have gone too far. She glanced at Ye who was still kneeling on the ground with a guilty conscience. Zhen.
Soon the imperial chef came. When Gong E went to look for him, he knew what was going on. The snacks were made by Ye Zhen's personal maid, and she even told him the addresses of his parents, wife and children, and how he did it. If you dare to disobey, you will be mentally prepared to be beheaded when you do it, and you will kneel down calmly where you just entered the door.
Ning Sheng glanced at him:
"Did you make this snack?"
The chef raised his head and glanced at the dim sum:
"It's a humble job."
"What's in it?"
“Why add Coptis chinensis?”
"I hate Miss Hyun because of my humble position." (To be continued)
