When Dugu Liancheng sent them warm clothes, the three masters and servants had already adapted to Chenxiang Palace, and they did not feel the cold in winter nights.
What he gave was not help in times of need, and she would not be grateful.
Dugu Liancheng was afraid that she would be pregnant with a dragon heir, so she thought of it together with him. Since it was something that could not come into this world, she naturally took precautions as early as possible.
Therefore, Dugu Liancheng sent Dr. Zhang to check her pulse, and it was even more impossible for her to be heartbroken.
She didn't even care when she could leave Chenxiang Palace, because her father would help her take care of everything.
And the things she needed to be prepared for were already prepared.
In the early morning of the preparation day, the ugly hour was approaching, and the Yingchun who was keeping watch suddenly let out an exclamation.
Sizhu was sleeping lightly and came out after hearing the sound.
When she saw several venomous snakes suddenly appearing and prowling outside, she threw down the oil lamp.
Because the realgar wine had been laid out on the road, the oil lamp was thrown down and it immediately caught fire.
Mu Ci put on his clothes and came out to see what was going on. He saw two venomous snakes burned to death, and another one fled in panic and soon disappeared.
"Your Majesty is wise, but luckily she was prepared in advance." Yingchun saw this and felt lingering fear.
How could a snake come out in this winter? It's not because someone with ulterior motives wants to kill the empress.
It’s really incredible that the empress is the Queen Mother, but she is still regarded as a thorn in the side of some people.
"It's always better to be prepared for any eventuality." Mu Ci said, stepping forward to pick up the burned snake.
When Yingchun saw this scene, her eyes almost popped out of her head: "Mother, this is impossible..."
"You don't know this. Snake meat is a good tonic and can be used as a snack." Mu Ci said, and deliberately twisted the snake in front of Yingchun and shook it around, making Yingchun scream and retreat.
The guards saw a fire in Chenxiang Palace and hurried in to see what was going on. They happened to see the Queen Mother holding a snake.
"The Queen Mother, this is..."
The Queen Mother is not afraid of snakes and dares to play with them?
"The food in Chenxiang Palace is not very good recently. The Ai family roasted two snakes. Do you want to taste their deliciousness?" Mu Ci said, moving the snakes closer to the guards.
The guard carefully took two steps back and hurriedly replied: "The Queen Mother, you are busy and I have to resign from my humble position!"
The Queen Mother is so cruel, only those who are not discerning dare to mess with the Queen Mother, right?
However, if something unusual like a snake suddenly appears in Chenxiang Palace, you have to report it to Lord Long Live no matter what.
As soon as the guards left, Yingchun's focus returned to the snake: "I don't dare to eat this thing."
It looks scary, but the master still dares to twist it on his hand. It's so scary.
"Don't be greedy when the braised snake meat is cooked tomorrow." Mu Ci said, twisting the snake into the hall.
Yingchun looked at Sizhu with a bitter face: "Why is our mother-in-law such a mother-in-law?"
Sizhu pursed her lips and smiled: "The braised snake meat is extremely delicious. It will be a loss if you don't eat it."
Not only did the empress handle tonight's crisis, but she also got an extra delicious meal for free, and the empress knew how to scheme.
Sizhu started busy this morning. He cut the snake into segments, added sauce to taste, marinated it for a quarter of an hour, stir-fried it over high heat, and then simmered it in water for another quarter of an hour.
When the aroma of meat comes out, Yingchun almost drools when he smells it.
"Such disgusting stuff smells okay after cooking." Yingchun muttered in a low voice.
"It's not your share of what my wife and I are eating, so go ahead!" Sizhu spat softly.
Yingchun felt that this thing only smelled good, and it must taste as disgusting as it looked, so she said vehemently: "I won't eat this thing."
