Zhiqi smiled slightly, asked Ganoderma lucidum to bring a bowl, served half a spoonful of porridge, and tasted it first in front of everyone.
It is common in the palace to try poison for the master. When she served Queen Jiang Ziyin before, she often took a bite of the food first. Only when Jiang Ziyin was sure it was okay would he continue to eat it.
But I occasionally encountered a high-level poison in the palace, but I couldn't try it out at that time. There were also cases where both the master and the servant died suddenly. However, there were very few cases. If I encountered such a situation, I could only say that I was unlucky.
However, this time, Zhiqi did not feel worried when she tried the poison. After all, she made it herself and did not have any intention. Yang Chen asked her to eat it first, so she would eat it first.
"Prince, Butler Yang, it's OK." Zhiqi handed the bowl in his hand to Ganoderma lucidum without any trouble and took it down.
Ximen Jingxuan nodded gently to indicate.
Zhiqi took an empty bowl, filled it with porridge, and presented it with a spoon.
Ximen Jingxuan took the bowl and gently stirred it with a spoon in his hand. As if he was dizzy in the porridge, he felt much more at ease.
Maybe it was because I was too busy recently, and it was almost noon and I didn’t even have breakfast. I felt so physically and mentally exhausted that I felt confused.
"Gingeria lucidum, give this bowl of porridge to Mrs. Mei." Zhiqi handed over the second bowl to Ganoderia lucidum, "In the morning, I promised to treat her to porridge, but unfortunately she didn't come. Her temperament doesn't like to join in the fun. Please give it to her.
Send it to you.”
Ganoderma lucidum took the bowl and left on order.
Next, Zhiqi put a bowl on Yang Chen again.
"Zhiqi, why did you suddenly remember to make porridge today? I remember that you can't sleep at night, so you sleep until very late during the day before getting up." Ximen Jingxuan asked casually.
Zhiqi's hand holding her porridge bowl was a little stiff. If she hadn't held it hard, she would have missed it.
Zhiqi lowered her head and slowly swallowed the porridge she had just sent in. Then he stabilized his expression and said, "I happened to go to bed early last night, so I got up early this morning. I was idle.
If you have nothing to do, please ask Ganoderma lucidum to do these things."
"Last night, when someone asked you, weren't you still asleep?"
Ximen Jingxuan, who returned to the palace, had already asked about the night.
"Yes, I went to bed later." Zhiqi replied, holding a spoon in her hand, stirring the already cool porridge constantly, covering her pity.
Ximen Jingxuan lowered his eyes and stared at Zhiqi's slightly trembling hands.
She also covered up very well, and she couldn't see the slight shaking without looking closely.
"What? I went to bed early after chatting with Mrs. Mei last night? It seems that you sisters should walk around more in the future." Ximen Jingxuan said.
From the Ganoderma lucidum that was delivering porridge, I heard that when King Xuan was at Zhiqi's place, Mrs. Mei followed the Ganoderma lucidum that left first to find Zhiqi's residence.
As soon as I stopped at the gate of the yard, I heard Ximen Jingxuan’s question and suddenly stopped.
Through the backs of several people, Mrs. Mei looked at Zhiqi quietly.
She lied to the guard last night. Now does Zhiqi dare to deny her words?
Zhiqi dared not, Mrs. Mei was sure, staring at Zhiqi intently. People who had ghosts in their hearts dared not easily deny another lie.
Mrs. Mei raised her eyelids and happened to see Mrs. Mei standing at the gate of the yard. She didn't know where King Xuan heard such news. When did she talk to Mrs. Mei?
However, King Xuan's tone was certain, that is, I wonder why Mrs. Mei created such an illusion, could it be...
Zhiqi touched Mrs. Mei’s complicated gaze. There was something in her eyes that she couldn’t see through. This was not the indifferent Madam Mei in the past!
Mrs. Mei discovered what happened last night? I thought it was not right. How could Ximen Yin find out about his actions?
At this time, Zhiqi didn't have to think too much about it. Ximen Jingxuan was still waiting for her reply, and she did not dare to deny what Ximen Jingxuan said casually.
She could only smile at Mrs. Mei and said, "Yes, our sisters will walk more in the future."
Is this even if she and Mrs. Mei had a lie? But what is Mrs. Mei's purpose?
Mrs. Mei followed Zhiqi's words and walked slowly into the yard, bowed to Ximen Jingxuan, "See the Prince."
Ximen Jingxuan didn't ask any more questions and took Yang Chen away quickly.
Zhiqi couldn't relax and looked at Mrs. Mei on the side. Just as she was about to ask, Mrs. Mei smiled, "Thank you for your good porridge. I'll give the flower tea I made by my sister one day."
Then, without giving Zhiqi a chance to speak, as if nothing had happened, let go.
"Madam, did Mrs. Mei come last night? Why don't I know?"
After everyone left, Ganoderma lucidum couldn't help asking curiously.
"You are asleep, don't know." Zhiqi held the bowl in his hand blankly.
The porridge in the bowl was already cold and was soaked in the cold wind of late autumn, but she only took a sip, and it still had a very bitter taste.
"Oh." Ganoderma lucidum didn't notice anything and responded.
Generally, she sleeps first, and she doesn't know when the wife will fall asleep.
"Your Majesty, it must be when our people were aware of the movement. Mrs. Zhiqi was meeting someone, and she responded that our people were deliberately covering it. It was normal for us to hear Mrs. Zhiqi's response. We were afraid of being alerted to the snake, so we were inconvenient to get close to inquire.
I waited outside and found no suspicious people coming and going. I guess that person either used the hidden technique or the shadow breaking technique." Yang Chen and Ximen Jingxuan returned to the study and said, "The sky was very gloomy last night, it was really
Too dark is indeed a good opportunity to act.”
But he went out to run all night last night! Yang Chen was upset about his negligence and unconsciously put his anger on Lin Xiner's head. If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have been worried about the prince's affairs, which would have affected him.
work.
"Yes, the sky is cloudy, I'm afraid it's going to usher in the first snow of this winter." Ximen Jingxuan looked out the window.
At this time, the northern border was probably covered with snow.
Ximen Jingxuan withdrew his gaze and looked at Yang Chen quietly, he had something to do.
And he seemed to be starting to feel uneasy again.
Is it because Yang Chen is hiding something?
"Prince." Mrs. Mei's voice sounded quietly outside the door.
Ximen Jingxuan's eyes moved away from Yang Chen.
Yang Chen is a loyal person, so he doesn't have to worry about his bad intentions. If you have something to do, you can wait for him to struggle and say it out.
"Come in."
Hearing Ximen Jingxuan's voice, Mrs. Mei pushed the door and entered, and the flower tea was prepared on the tray she was holding.
"The prince has been tired in the palace recently. Let's wake up with a cup of tea." Mrs. Mei put the tea in front of Ximen Jingxuan.
Ximen Jingxuan pinched the teacup and looked at it leisurely.
When will I drink tea and have fun with Xiner?
The tea enters the throat, fresh and pleasant, and the elegant fragrance of flowers penetrates into the lungs. This is the taste that Xiner likes.
Ximen Jingxuan's eyes were always focused on the teacup, Yang Chen's heart was messy, and no one noticed that Madam Mei's eyes were paying special attention to Ximen Jingxuan's behavior of drinking tea.
The familiar behavior was elegant and indifferent, but there was still a strong sense of tenderness.
