Chapter 1103, cover up, too fragrant soup
When Shao Wanru returned to the small tent, she was almost exhausted. She went over step by step and spent all her strength. She lay on the couch weakly and closed her eyes. Princess Ruian covered her with a soft cloak, and then gave a few instructions to Yujie and Qule.
I carefully reminded them not to hurry back, let Shao Wanru sleep for a while, and go back only when she is in good spirits. If she is in good spirits, she can come over to see the afternoon performance later, but she doesn’t have to run around like she is now.
The tents are all in the middle. Even if Shao Wanru's top is a little smaller and a little lower, it is still in the middle. Just lift the curtain outside the tent and you can see the performance on the high flower table without having to go outside to see it clearly.
"Grand Princess, will the princess go and go to the banquet later?" Yujie asked.
Princess Ruian shook her head: "No need to go to the banquet with you. Your princess wakes up later. If you don't want to go back, she will tell Madam Gao that she will ask her to find the people in the imperial kitchen to have lunch, just use it here. After using it, let's clean it up, just rest here and wait for the afternoon performance!"
"No need...I'll go back!" A weak voice was made on the bed. Shao Wanru was dizzy and just forced to hold on. At this time, she really couldn't hold on.
She had originally ordered Yujie before, saying that she wanted to see the afternoon performance, but she was really not energetic at this time.
"Yes, it's better to go back and rest. You can watch this kind of performance at any time. The body is the most important thing." Princess Ruian breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Shao Wanru would have to force herself to watch the fun. After all, she was a young girl, and she might not necessarily leave at this time.
Shao Wanru proposed it himself at the moment.
He walked over and pulled Shao Wanru's cloak again, and sighed heavily: "Hey, you kid..."
As he was so hurt, he was forced to hold on. Princess Ruian didn't know what to say. Her eyes fell on Shao Wanru's pale, almost transparent face, and her nose became sore. If the child's parents had not died early, such a child should still act coquettishly in his parents' arms at this time, how could he be so sensible?
Even though he was so hurt, he still forced himself to come over to celebrate the birthday of the Empress Dowager.
A child who is too sensible will feel more distressing when he thinks about it carefully.
"Grandma, I'm fine!" Shao Wanru couldn't open her eyes, and she just whispered. It's not that she didn't want to open it, but she was really unable to close it. She just used all her strength at the Empress Dowager's place. She didn't even hear the footsteps of Princess Ruian leaving, and slowly fell asleep.
When I woke up again, I reached out and touched my head, feeling that it was not so painful, so I opened my eyes.
"The princess is awake!" Yujie said in surprise, and then saw her appear in her sight, "Where is the princess feeling uncomfortable?"
Shao Wanru shook her head: "I'm fine!"
"Princess, you have been sleeping for two hours!" Qu Le's eyes turned red, and he hurried over to see Shao Wanru's face. Seeing that although she was still pale, she was much better than before, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, the more they waited, the more they became more and more scared, and even alarmed the Empress Dowager and asked the Imperial Doctor to come and see her, saying that she was just seriously injured and fainted and fell asleep. Nothing big happened. The two maids took a little snack, but they were still very worried. At this time, they were relieved when they woke up.
"I've had two sleeps
It's been an hour?" Shao Wanru reached out and touched her slightly blunt head, and her long eyelashes flashed a few times.
She originally thought it would be enough to take a short rest, but she didn't expect that after she fell asleep, she would have slept for two hours. Calculated the time, and the banquet should have begun.
I listened carefully, but I didn't hear any sound.
"Have everyone outside gone to the banquet?" Shao Wanru asked again.
"Yes, we all left. When the eldest princess left, she came to see you specially and said you were fine before leaving!" Yujie said.
Qule echoed the table, and there was a food basket there, "Princess, it's getting late. Please use it a little bit. If you are in good spirits for a while, we will stay and see. If you are not in good spirits, we will go back. The eldest princess said that it was not obvious, but the ladies wanted to enter the palace of several princes."
Yu Jiezhong went over to help, pulled the table to Shao Wanru's couch, then opened the food basket and took out the dishes in one pot, and it was still rich.
Eight dishes and one soup, and another large bowl of white rice.
The big food baskets were almost full.
The food was still hot, and it seemed that I had just brought it to you for a while. Shao Wanru happened to wake up. At this time, she was not cold or hot, just right!
Shao Wanru's eyes fell in the bowl of pork ribs and yam soup. In fact, there were not many pork ribs, just for seasoning, with yam in it, but upon closer inspection, there were some mushrooms and the like, the meat smell was filled with the strong aroma of mushrooms, making people salivate.
"The eunuch sent him said that the soup was specially made by the people in the imperial kitchen. It was also the Queen Mother's instructions that it was not only yams, mushrooms, but also some charitable seasonings, which were very suitable for the princess to use at the moment. The eldest princess also sent someone to ask the princess to drink more and to take good care of her body!"
Seeing Shao Wanru's attention on the bowl of soup, Yujie explained with a smile.
This taste is indeed very fragrant. After careful consideration, there is also a faint medicinal smell among the aroma of meat and mushrooms. It is no longer an ordinary soup, but a medicinal food.
Qule poured a bowl for her, and Shao Wanru took it and took a sip. The soup was fragrant and smooth when it entered her throat, and the meat smelled inside. It became more delicious. The Chinese medicine tasted very lightly, and it looked more perfect in this soup.
As soon as the soup was in his mouth, Shao Wanru's face changed slightly.
"Princess, what's wrong?" Yujie kept paying attention to Shao Wanru's face, and saw her frowning eyebrows, she hurriedly said.
Shao Wanru put down the bowl, wiped it with a handkerchief on the corner of her lips, and then asked, "Who sent this soup?"
"It was said that it was the eunuch from the imperial kitchen. It was sent by the Queen Mother and specially made by someone. The eldest princess later sent someone to let you drink more, princess, but what's wrong?" Yujie said.
After following Shao Wanru for a long time, Yujie also became more meticulous.
The things sent from the palace were sent by a eunuch who had never seen before. Of course, she was wary, but after the eldest princess's man said this, she immediately believed it. Could it be that there was something wrong with the soup? Yujie's eyes fell on the bowl of soup.
Among these dishes, this soup is the most fragrant, and it has a medicinal flavor that is different from other dishes, which is very rich.
"First the eunuch came here, then my grandmother gave a special order and said, as if she was afraid that we would not believe it?" Shao Wanru raised her eyebrows, looked at the soup, and then looked at the other dishes, and said, "Please."
Put this bowl of soup on another table, and the fragrance of this soup covers the flavor of other dishes!”
Although Qule and Yujie didn't know why, they still obediently moved away the big soup bowl, and the fragrance in front of Shao Wanru immediately became lighter.
"Cover the lid!" Shao Wanru said again.
Yujie covered the cover of the soup bowl as he spoke.
"Yujie, come and smell it. Is there any other smell in this dish?" Shao Wanru closed her eyes and whispered. Although she was injured, she lost so much blood, which was not fake. In order to show her sincerity, she did walk over step by step and then walk back step by step.
She used all her strength. Although she had a good sleep at this time, she was still lacking in energy and could not do much energy.
Fortunately, Yu Jie is also there. With the understanding and familiarity of this Chinese medicine, Yu Jie is even better than Shao Wanru.
Yujie walked over, picked up the other dishes in front of her, and became clearer. The aroma of Chinese medicine and broth in the soup bowl was missing. The taste of these dishes became clearer and no longer covered by the fragrance of soup.
After Yujie smelled it, she separated two of the dishes from these dishes. Later, she hesitated for a moment, took out the big bowl of rice and put them together with the two dishes.
After doing all this, Yujie knelt down with a "thump": "Princess, it's my servant who is negligent!"
"Tell me, what's there?" Shao Wanru was not surprised, her eyes closed and her lips curled slightly, trying not to waste her energy.
"These two dishes seem to have a taste, but there seems to be no. I can't tell them. But after careful smelling them, it looks like the Chinese medicine smell in the soup just now. I don't know if it was infected by the Chinese medicine smell in the soup, but there must be some in the rice. This bowl of rice was drugged. My nose was also sensitive in the past, but this time, because the eldest princess sent someone to say it, it was covered by the taste of the soup, and I didn't find anything, almost letting the princess..."
When Yujie said this, she showed hatred and anger on her face. She almost killed the princess. If the princess had not been awake, the princess's life would have been out of order this time.
The best thing is that even if I eat this rice and Qule, it will be fine.
No one knew how the princess died. She thought she had only forced herself to give birth to her birthday gift before. No matter how she investigated the matter, she could not find out the food.
Qu Le didn't understand these things. When Yu Jie said this, her face changed drastically. She looked at the white rice on the table in horror and asked in surprise: "Is it... poisoned? Is it... who wants to harm the princess? Didn't the Queen Mother specifically ordered it? Even the people in the imperial kitchen were used? No, is the imperial kitchen the most powerful place to supervise?"
The imperial kitchen is the most important place in the imperial palace. The royal people have always been afraid that people will poison food. Therefore, the imperial kitchen people are investigated very clearly. Only clean and without any wrong people can enter the imperial kitchen. In addition to these, the emperor also sent people to investigate from time to time, with the goal of ensuring that the food used is fine.
This is also the reason why Qu Le and Yujie were not very suspicious at first. It seems that they are not right now, so why don’t they shock the two maids?
