Concubine De's face darkened and she said: "I haven't eaten yet!"
The eldest maid did not dare to say anything more, so she took down the four plates of food and heated them up.
Concubine De smiled and said: "This looks delicious!"
"Of course, it's very delicious! I ate a lot!"
The mother and son chatted while tasting pastries. Although Chu Jingxian was known as a playboy, he treated Concubine De very filially, and the mother and son were happy.
Concubine De suddenly said: "Xian'er, you are already eighteen, and you are old enough to marry a princess. Do you have a girl you like?"
Chu Jingxian's hand holding the pastry paused, a soft color appeared in his eyes, and then he smiled and shook his head and said: "Mother, I will prepare for two years, so there is no rush for now!"
Concubine De smiled and said: "Are you embarrassed? If you like something, then settle on it quickly, otherwise, someone else will snatch it up later!"
Chu Jingxian said: "No hurry, no hurry!"
Concubine Chu smiled: "The girl in Xian'er's heart is this skillful person who makes such exquisite pastries?"
Chu Jingxian's eyes were bright and he said: "Mother, Qingyu is a very nice person, smart and capable. She is my good friend!"
"Oh, are they good friends?" Concubine De looked at her son's eyes, smiling broadly, and jokingly emphasized the word "good friends."
Chu Jingxian coughed lightly and said, "We are good friends now!"
He also hopes to be more than just a good friend, but he knows better that this matter cannot be rushed. At least for now, in Qingyu's heart, he is just a friend.
But now that Qingyu is free, he no longer has to worry about being his fifth sister-in-law, which makes it inconvenient for him to move around.
At this time, the four dishes are hot.
In fact, it wasn’t too cold to begin with, because Chu Jingxian walked very quickly and didn’t delay much along the way.
I'm just worried that it won't taste good if it's warm or cold, so I need to heat it up.
Grilled deer breast, five-spice smoked fish, Dongpo pork with abalone sauce, and roasted bones with sauce.
In fact, except for Dongpo Pork with Abalone Sauce, which is some meat, the remaining three items are all good. The roasted dried meat is dried venison made by smoking and drying venison using a special method.
The venison is firm and delicious. When made into grilled preserved meat, it is moderately soft and chewy.
Mu Qingyu chose the best parts of the venison, with fine cutting skills. Each piece was about the same length and had exquisite textures. She also cooked it carefully. This kind of preserved meat, called roasted deer breast, made Chu Jingxian
Everyone in this royal kitchen can't stop eating.
As if he had made it himself, Chu Jingxian picked up a deer breast with his chopsticks, put it on a small plate in front of Concubine De, and said like a treasure: "Concubine, please try it!"
Seeing his bright eyes, Concubine De smiled and said: "If Xian'er likes it, it must be delicious!" After saying that, she picked up the preserved fruits in the white jade plate with white jade chopsticks and put it into her mouth.
It's obviously preserved meat, but it has a umami flavor. It's delicious, slightly spicy, and slightly sweet. The preserved meat is not too dry, but full of chewiness.
She praised: "It's really delicious!"
Her usual diet really does not include these things.
Now that she had it in her mouth, she felt that the taste was novel and special, which actually whetted her appetite, so she took another bite of the five-spice smoked fish.
She also put a piece of smoked fish on the plate in front of Chu Jingxian. Chu Jingxian ate it with a smile, bold and elegant. Yes, these are two words that cannot be connected together, but Chu Jingxian
Just to give people this feeling, he was originally handsome, even if he made some bold movements, he could not hide the nobility in his bones.
This fish was also delicious. He had eaten several pieces of it before, so he gave it to Concubine De and said, "Concubine, I watched her cook it. While she was cooking it, I stole it from the side.
Eat!"
Concubine De said funnyly: "It's so delicious, you still want to send it to me?"
"That's natural. Mothers and concubines want to keep delicious food for their sons. Sons share delicious food with their mothers and concubines. Isn't this the right thing to do?"
Mother and son are enjoying themselves happily.
Suddenly, Concubine De's face changed, she felt dizzy, and she vomited out a mouthful of blood and fell down on the table.
Chu Jingxian, who was talking with a smile, narrowed his eyes and said in shock: "Mother Concubine!"
However, Concubine De has already passed out.
Chu Jingxian went to help her, and quickly tapped several acupuncture points on her. If any poison entered the heart and brain, it would be too late. Although tapping the acupuncture points could not stop it, it could slow it down. He shouted in a panic: "The imperial physician
,Quick!"
There was chaos in Zhaoqing Palace.
The nanny next to Concubine De said in a deep voice: "My queen is so alive, how could she suddenly vomit blood and fall into coma?"
Chu Jingxian's eyes were red, and there was panic, worry, anxiety, and hatred in his eyes. He said in a deep voice: "Seal Zhaoqing Palace. From now on, no one is allowed in or out. Anyone who dares to come out will be killed."
Beat him to death with a stick!"
His sinister gaze swept across the table, and his voice was as cold as ice: "Also, no one is allowed to touch anything here!"
The imperial doctor came very quickly, and more than one came.
After all, Concubine De was in the palace, and she had no conflicts with the empress on the surface, nor did she have any interactions with Concubine Ning. She was very peaceful in her Zhaoqing Palace, not provoking anyone, and not getting into trouble with anyone. After all, other people's sons are eyeing the throne, while her son just wants to be a playboy.
For this reason, the Queen and Concubine Ning did not list her as an enemy. At least not on the surface.
The emperor would also visit Zhaoqing Palace once or twice a month, neither showing favor nor neglecting him.
Now, if something happens to Concubine De, the imperial doctor will certainly not dare to neglect her.
The ones who came were Imperial Physician Qin and Physician Li. Both of them had been in the Imperial Hospital for nearly ten years. Imperial Physician Qin was a medical doctor with a profound family background.
Concubine De had been moved to the bed and she was lying on the bed. Two imperial doctors went to check her pulse.
Chu Jingxian cannot go to the inner palace. He is an adult son, not his own son. Although there is no difference between mother and son and biological mother and son, he must avoid suspicion.
He stood in the hall, his eyes cold and cold, and for the first time, the hatred in his heart was overwhelming.
Because of the aura emanating from his whole body, the entire Zhaoqing Palace was suppressed. Those in the palace were kneeling on the ground, not even daring to take a breath.
After a while, the imperial doctor came out.
Chu Jingxian greeted him.
The two imperial doctors looked at each other, and the elder Qin imperial doctor spoke, "Empress De Fei is poisoned!"
A very direct and definite statement.
It was clear that Concubine De was fine when he came, but after he came for a while, Concubine De was poisoned.
And Concubine De ate what he brought.
Chu Jingxian said hoarsely: "Is it serious?"
Doctor Qin said: "Fortunately, although the toxicity is strong, the intake is not much, and the poison travels along the blood and slows down. We have just administered the injection and will prescribe a prescription. Although the mother's body will be damaged after taking the medicine,
But my life is not in danger!"
The body will be injured!
Chu Jingxian gritted his teeth tightly again. His mother and concubine were not fighting over each other in the palace. He, his son, had become a playboy, but someone still reached out to Zhaoqing Palace!
