This time Chong Ximo did not stop her, but put something on the table.
"Take this before you leave."
"What?" Chu Qiao turned around awkwardly, looked over, and found a short knife on the table.
"Knife, knife?" Chu Qiao's voice almost changed.
"It's not a knife, it's a dagger." Chong Ximo picked up the dagger and handed it to Chu Qiao, but Chu Qiao dared to take it.
"I don't need this." Chu Qiao waved her hands hurriedly.
"You need it." Chong Ximo insisted, still holding the dagger in front of Chu Qiao.
"Sir, you are not allowed to carry this in the palace. If you are found out, you will lose your head." Chu Qiao smiled awkwardly. Even if she needed it, she didn't have the guts to take it. If the prince's people discovered it,
Even if she is not accused of being an assassin, she will be escorted to Dali Temple and beaten severely, even if she is not.
Chong Ximo couldn't help but laugh when he saw Chu Qiao's timid look.
"Put it in the room, An Ge's residence, and no one will check it."
It was An Ge's residence again, it was obviously right next to it, but Chong Ximo couldn't tell the difference between one house and two houses. As for whether he dared to check, Chu Qiao was not sure.
In order to leave early, Chu Qiao could only turn around and walk back, taking the dagger over. She raised her eyes and carefully looked out the window. When she found that no one was there, she quickly hid the dagger in her sleeve.
"If someone finds out, I will tell you what Master Chong gave me, and...please be careful when speaking in the future, it is not An Ge's residence, it is my own." Chu Qiao reminded Chong Ximo.
Chong Ximo just smiled with his eyes narrowed and did not respond to Chu Qiao.
Chu Qiao pursed her lips and retreated.
Standing outside the door, Chu Qiao took a deep breath and felt much more relaxed. The little eunuch was still waiting there respectfully. When he saw Chu Qiao coming out, he hurriedly whispered.
"I'll take Chef Li back."
"No need, I know the way back, I can do it myself."
Chu Qiao thanked the little eunuch for her kindness and hurriedly walked out. On the way, she happened to meet Chu Xia. Chu Xia was walking with several other medical girls, holding some medical books. The other medical girls looked like they were raising cases.
The doctor there.
Chu Qiao heard that the Imperial Hospital's Promotion Department was going to hold an exam recently to promote several medical women to diagnose and treat the concubines in the harem. This should be an opportunity in early summer, but it was a pity that Chu Qiao could not participate.
, she could not speak to Chong Ximo, and this was not in line with the hospital's rules.
"Isn't this Chunxiang?" Chu Xia saw Chu Qiao and shouted from a distance.
When several other medical women heard the word "Chunxiang", they all looked over with curious eyes, looking at her up and down, as if Chu Qiao was some kind of monster.
"Is she Li Chunxiang from the imperial dining room?"
"I heard that she was the one who was held hostage last night, and there were deaths."
The several medical women didn't mean to look away, looking at Chu Qiao unscrupulously. When they saw Qiao's face clearly, they all had incredible expressions.
"She's quite good-looking. No wonder she's... strange. Why did she come to Tai Hospital?"
"Maybe they came to thank Mr. Chong for saving his life." They discussed in a low voice.
Although these comments were made in a low voice, they were still heard by Chu Qiao. You can imagine her awkward mood. Maybe many people were talking about what happened last night at this time. So many guards were watching, and there were also people who rushed
The eunuch who came, it was impossible to hide the matter.
Chu Xia came over, with a strange look in her eyes, and chatted with Chu Qiao without saying anything. She was surprised by the ability of this female servant in the imperial kitchen. The last time she went to treat Li Chunxiang's injury, she was just an imperial kitchen servant.
A handyman in the house, but now...
"Is your leg healed? Last time I said I would go take a look, but I didn't leave because of something else." Chu Xia said.
"It's been healed a long time ago." Chu Qiao smiled. If this leg is not healed by now, I'm afraid I will be lame for the rest of my life.
"Why did you come to Tai Hospital..." Chu Xia asked again in a low voice.
"It happened last night. Mr. Chong asked Chunxiang to come over for questioning. Now that the questioning is over, Chunxiang is going back." Chu Qiao explained that since everyone knew about the incident, there was no need for her to hide it.
When they heard that it was really because of this, several medical women gathered around and started asking questions, asking about Chunxiang's condition at that time and why Mao Dasong held her hostage. Was she scared at the time? They also asked Lord Chong why he took action.
At that time, they asked An Ge if he was really that powerful and killed Mao Dasong with one sword.
"I've never seen that royal chef. I heard he's very special and handsome."
"Can you tell us about him?"
"Actually, I admire Sir Chong the most. Can you tell me how you drew your sword at that time?"
A series of questions made Chu Qiao a little overwhelmed. She shook her head and said that she fainted after seeing the blood and didn't know anything. Then she found an excuse to leave urgently. Chu Qiao hurriedly walked outside the hospital.
Go.
When she arrived at the entrance of Tai Hospital, she couldn't help but look back. Chu Xia and several medical girls had already entered. Chu Qiao sighed. When would she be able to enter Tai Hospital as a medical girl? Until then, she would be considered
Really one step closer to the goal.
After leaving the Imperial Hospital, Chu Qiao walked back. This time she did not go back directly to the imperial dining room, but went to her new residence. Being able to see Lianyun once again would only be good for her, not bad.
When approaching the door, Chu Qiao saw several young eunuchs and maids busy inside.
"There is still dust there. Take a good look. How are you doing the work?" A little eunuch scolded the little palace maid. The palace maid was busy coming in and out. She thought that the room had been empty and no one lived in it, so there was a lot of dust.
Not easy to clean.
In fact, Chu Qiao can do this work by herself. Although she is An Ge's assistant now, she is still a senior chef. She does not have such a noble status. How dare she bother so many people to do it for her alone.
But when Chu Qiao walked into the room, she realized that this job really couldn't be done by one person. The house looked bright and bright from the outside, but it was not small inside.
The secluded room is hidden by the windows, and it doesn’t look like a small and cozy place. The light in the room is very good, and it is filled with soft and mysterious light from the hollow windows. It is elegant and comfortable.
Is this a place for a palace chef to cook?
Chu Qiao was a little suspicious. She stepped in and then stepped out. She looked up at the door and saw a small blue plaque with "Ya Yuan" written on it.
This is really a name that fits the atmosphere here, but who is qualified to live here? Chu Qiao is not sure that she has this posture. If she does, it is also a sign of death.
