Chapter 419 The former owner
"Princess, this meal is too... vegetarian!" Qingcao couldn't help but say, "I think Mom Liu deliberately neglects the princess."
Since Cui Yunxi used her skills to improve Qingyunyuan's impression in the Royal Palace, coupled with the medical expenses she earned, Qingyun Hospital's diet has been so simple for a long time!
"She is a slave in this other courtyard, so she shouldn't deliberately make things difficult for us. Maybe the prince's fee for the Wisteria Villa is very little." Cui Yunxi said.
Unexpectedly, these vegetarian dishes taste very good, and they tasted the meat.
Cui Yunxi was very happy to eat and immediately called Deng'er to call Liu's mother to ask questions.
"Mom Liu, who made these meals?" Cui Yunxi asked.
"It's all made by my servants. I'm responsible for the kitchen of the Wisteria Villa. My former master liked vegetarian food, and when I saw that I could cook vegetarian food, I gradually valued my servants." said Liu's mother.
"Who is the master of this house before?" Danju couldn't help asking.
A trace of concern flashed across Liu's mother's face, but she still didn't say anything.
"It's not that my servant refuses to say it, but that his identity has now become a taboo."
Cui Yunxi became more and more curious: a house that seemed to be forgotten, with several elderly slaves.
"Mom Liu, there are no people here, you say that," Cui Yunxi said.
"The former owner of this yard was King Wu." Liu's mother lowered her voice and said softly.
Cui Yunxi didn't understand why she was so careful, and several maids looked at each other, not knowing who the King of Wu was.
"The princess is young and may not know the King of Wu. He and the current emperor are half-brothers. Because of his crime, the King of Wu was killed more than 100 people in the house and was slaughtered overnight because of his crime.
Almost all." Liu's mother's voice suddenly became distant, as if she was recalling the bloody night that was still scary.
Several girls immediately held their breath and showed their tsk expressions.
Cui Yunxi knew that the power struggle was extremely cruel, that was, brothers, fathers and sons, could meet each other for the sake of power.
"The King of Wu lived here before?" Cui Yunxi suddenly shivered.
This sentence also made the faces of several maids look of fear appear on their faces.
"The King of Wu does not live here, this is just the residence of his concubine." Liu's mother said, and her expression suddenly became a little sad.
Cui Yunxi understood that it should be the concubine, Liu's mother's master.
"This concubine loves vegetarian food very much?" Cui Yunxi asked.
"Not bad. She likes to eat vegetarian food made by her servants and never eat meat." said Liu's mother.
"She was also implicated by the King of Wu in the end?" Cui Yunxi said.
"No, the concubine died of a serious illness. In order to treat the concubine, the King of Wu searched all the medicines in the world but failed to keep her life. Fortunately, the concubine died early, otherwise she would not be able to escape the catastrophe."
A look of fear appeared in Liu's eyes.
"What disease?" Cui Yunxi couldn't help asking.
"I don't know much. I only know that her concubine coughs all year round and sometimes she coughs up bleeding. The doctor said that she was tuberculosis. The King of Wu invited many doctors to treat her, but no one could cure her well."
Mama Liu said.
When Cui Yunxi heard this, she guessed in her heart whether it was tuberculosis. With the medical skills of this era, it is indeed difficult to cure such diseases.
"After the death of the concubine, His Highness of the King of Wu, no longer came. Our place became an empty courtyard. Gradually, fewer and fewer people were serving him, and those who were leaving were gone, those who died, and in the end they were only a few of us left.
