Chapter 212: The Emperor Will Soften His Heart
"Where did this come from? Did it come from outside the customs or grew it yourself?" the emperor asked curiously.
The smell is indeed good. If it is as good as Jiabaoer said, you can consider promoting planting.
"It was picked from the mountains over there," Jiabao'er rolled his eyes, "no one knows how to plant it yet, but... if the emperor's uncle wants to plant it, Jiabao'er can help him get the seeds."
As she spoke, she pointed at the two little beast cubs and then pointed at the sky.
There were no more or less in the sky, but the emperor also understood what she meant.
"Did they pick it up for you?"
the emperor asked.
Jiabao'er nodded, "Yes, it should be in a very dangerous cliff. No one can find it, only animals can find it."
According to the Emperor's letter, many magical herbs come from this way. For example, the wild Polygonum multiflorum used by the Queen is only found in the deep mountains and cannot be grown.
The emperor looked at his mother subconsciously.
I heard from Nanny Xu that the queen's hair had begun to grow, and the hair that grew out was all black. Not only this, but the queen's sleep was much sweeter.
In front of him, the queen mother was no less grateful to the old lady of the Chu family, and also to Jiabao'er.
Frankly speaking, the elixir Jiabaoer gave her was a good thing. It made her feel better every time she took it. She felt relaxed as she had never felt before.
He told his mother what happened in the past few days, and only told her mother alone.
Including that he put Jiabao'er under guard in Kunning Palace and was not allowed to go out, including his plan to kill Jiabao'er as a last resort.
After thinking about it, the queen mother told him that it was impossible to protect her. Jiabaoer did not ask others to help investigate the scandal in the royal family, but she saw it herself.
Did you see it yourself?
So far apart? So many obstacles?
how can that be possible?
Anyone who hears it will find it ridiculous!
The Queen Mother told the Emperor that before the palace banquet, when Jiabaoer handed her the elixir in the Renshou Palace, he could see through the clothes of the palace maid.
The emperor couldn't believe it, but it was his mother who said this, so he had to believe it.
The girl in front of you has a pair of big, bright and clean eyes. Looking into her eyes, you will feel that any beauty in the world is not as good as one ten thousandth of hers.
Such clear eyes are as transparent and clean as crystal, and no mundane breath can escape in front of them.
"Jia Bao'er," the emperor's voice couldn't help but soften a little, "Is this red powder the chili powder? Then I have to have a good taste."
Jiabaoer blinked twice and saw the emperor picking up a bunch of mutton and stuffing it into his mouth.
"Your Majesty, please wait. Let me have someone taste it for you first." Eunuch Li quickly stopped him.
The rules in the palace cannot be violated. The emperor handed the first string to Eunuch Li.
Eunuch Li handed it to the little father-in-law who had already come forward and was waiting to test the poison.
The little father-in-law swallowed the meat skewers in just a few mouthfuls. The spiciness of the chili noodles made him stick out his tongue and suck on it.
"What's going on?" Eunuch Li's eyes were fixed on the little father-in-law's face, and he was a little nervous when he saw his painful expression.
"Spicy, too spicy, cough, sizzling, too spicy."
As the young father-in-law spoke, he said to Eunuch Li: "Can you reward me with a few more skewers? I was not careful just now. I didn't taste anything. It was so spicy that I swallowed it quickly."
Eunuch Li took out a few more skewers from the meat skewers in his hand and handed them to him.
Seeing him sucking and hissing while eating, it brought tears to my eyes. I praised the delicious food and wanted to swallow it with my tongue.
"It's delicious, it's delicious." As a young eunuch who tested poison for the emperor, he never considered whether it was poisonous or not.
Not poisonous is his destiny, poisonous is his destiny.
All he cares about is whether the food tastes good or not.
Today's chili noodles are something he has never tasted before. In the past, the mutton was not roasted well and had a smell of mutton. However, the mutton sprinkled with chili noodles did not have a smell of mutton. It did not make him feel tired after eating it. On the contrary, he was allowed to eat it.
After finishing one, I still want to take the next one, and I can’t get enough no matter how much I eat.
Seeing the way he was eating, Eunuch Li couldn't help but swallowed his saliva.
The queen walked into the courtyard holding the queen mother's hand, turned around with a smile and said to the emperor: "I don't dare to eat too spicy food. I just sprinkled a little bit of poop, but I can still accept it. In fact, I eat more than usual.
"
"Fortunately it's noon. If I baked this at night, I would have to worry about whether it would keep me awake."
Talking and laughing, they came to sit down at the table where the roasting was taking place.
Eunuch Li asked everyone who was kneeling to get up and bake it again. The emperor personally stood guard in front of him. This was the first time he had seen this way of eating in the palace, and everyone found it novel.
After a while, the second prince and his brothers came over.
As soon as he entered the door, he shouted: "Mother, what makes it smell so good? I can smell it from a long way away."
"We are too, we were all attracted by the fragrance. What delicious food is the Queen Mother making?"
"I have met the imperial grandmother, and I have met the emperor father."
All the princes saluted the Queen Mother and the Emperor in unison.
Then he saluted the queen again.
Then, they and Jiabaoer stared at each other and stood there.
"Little Douding, why are you here?" The second prince loved teasing Jiabaoer the most. He couldn't help but laugh when he saw her. It was the kind of love that came from the bottom of his heart.
Since their eldest brother was poisoned and fell into coma, the princes have not dared to move around these days. When they saw Jiabaoer suddenly collapse to the ground, they were all worried and wanted to find someone to inquire, but they were also afraid of being taken advantage of by someone with malicious intentions.
I really couldn't eat or sleep at night.
It was so easy to smell such an alluring fragrance. It was said that it came from the mother's harem. The princes keenly felt that the matter might not be as serious as they thought, otherwise the mother would not be in the mood to cook delicious food.
So we made an appointment.
Seeing Jiabaoer here, no matter how doubtful they were, they would not ask any more questions. This was a compulsory course for the royal children.
But they were happier than anyone else.
The princes were in high spirits, and they all looked at Jiabao'er with affection in their eyes.
"Sister Jiabao'er, you seem to have lost weight." The fifth prince cared most about Jiabao'er. The bow and arrows Jiabao'er gave her were so sweet to him, but before he could thank him properly, something happened to his brother.
No matter what others said, he felt that Jiabaoer would not poison the imperial brother. He just felt sorry for her, more than he felt for his sister, Princess Qingcheng.
"Hello little brother, Jiabao'er just changed places and couldn't sleep, so she lost weight."
As she spoke, she pinched her cheeks to show that she had really lost a lot of weight.
Unexpectedly, the oil and water on her hands suddenly stained her face. Jiabaoer was stunned, her mouth was deflated, and there were tears in her voice, "My face is dirty, will it become ugly?"
The little girl is naturally beautiful. Besides eating, what she cares most about is whether she looks good or not.
For her, the grease on her face is a big deal.
The queen quickly signaled to Nanny He to bring Jiabao'er to her, wiped her cheeks with a handkerchief, and said gently: "Don't worry, Jiabao, we will go and wash off the fragrance after dinner. Her face is very oily."
