Chapter 2746 Poisoning in advance
Remember [Love.com] in one second to provide you with wonderful reading. Half an hour is not a very short time. When ordinary maids hear that it will take so long, they will definitely ask a few words to send them quickly, and then go back to report their lives.
So, if Xiaohua insists on staying here, waiting for the porridge to be ready before applying medicine, and leaving, then her behavior will obviously be very suspicious. This is not a good thing.
But if we follow the conventional plan and turn around and leave the imperial kitchen, our lives will be saved, but the medicine has not been taken yet!
His Highness the Second Princess is so persistent about this matter. If she went back in shame without doing anything, there would definitely be no good results!
What should I do?
Just when Xiaohua was hesitating and could not think of a solution... she suddenly saw something with her casual gaze.
It was a table not far away. On the table, there were two trays, each with a clean small casserole for filling porridge.
Xiaohua clearly remembers that the bowl of snow lotus porridge she ate yesterday and the utensils used to serve it was this kind of casserole.
From this point of view, these two casseroles should be prepared to serve the snow lotus porridge later.
Then, if you can secretly put the medicine in a casserole where you put it in a porridge in advance, wouldn’t you achieve the same effect?
As expected, there is no way out - Xiaohua was delighted.
She looked up and saw that the two imperial chefs there were still busy next to the stove, just facing their backs to Xiaohua. They didn't think that Xiaohua's favored maid who served the second princess dared to do anything bad, so they were not at all wary of her.
Xiaohua quietly came to the stone platform and looked at the two casseroles carefully. She saw that the casseroles were exactly the same, but under the two trays, there seemed to be a note of paper pressing each.
A note reads: "Little Princess, Pearl Palace".
A note reads: "Second Princess, Yufeng Palace".
Xiaohua thought for a moment and understood that this should be when the porridge was ready later. When the attendant who sent the porridge came, she would let the attendant understand where she was going to deliver the things.
After understanding this, Xiaohua felt happy again.
You know, without this note, she would not be able to determine which portion was for the little princess and which portion was for the second princess. Then how could she determine which portion to drug? If it is wrong, wouldn’t it be a handful of rice that would be lost if the chicken was stealing.
Now that she has confirmed this, she can directly put the medicine in the little princess's casserole and then leave directly - after that, after the porridge is ready, the servant will directly send the porridge mixed with poison to the little princess, which greatly alleviates her suspicion of being a little flower.
It's so great - Xiaohua couldn't help but curl up.
The opportunity was rare, and she did not hesitate. She took out the exquisite small wooden box from her body, looked at the two imperial chefs over there, and saw that they were still concentrating on making porridge, so she picked up the wooden box, opened the lid, uncovered the sealed jade pieces on it, and then poured all the powder inside into the little princess's casserole.
After pouring it over, she immediately covered the box again and took it back, feeling that it was done. However, just as she smiled, she glanced at the casserole and suddenly realized that it was very obvious.
This casserole is pure black, while the powder is white. The white powder is spread in the black casserole, so it is clear. Even if the stone platform is darker, it can definitely be noticed.
In this way, if the imperial chef notices something wrong before pouring the porridge, wouldn't it be a waste of time?
Xiaohua's heart suddenly became tighter again.
She became nervous and quickly glanced around, trying to find a way.
It’s true that a few seconds later, she really thought of a solution - just two or three meters away, there was a big bucket full of water, and a scoop was placed next to it. This should be water used to wash vegetables and clean.
Xiaohua paused for a moment, looked at the actions of the two imperial chefs again, and confirmed that they had not seen it, so she quickly walked to the bucket, picked up the scoop of water with a scoop of water, scooped a small scoop of water, returned to the stone platform, and poured it into the little princess's casserole-
Maybe because she was too nervous, her hands trembled a little when she poured it, and half of the water fell outside the mouth of the casserole, hitting the outer wall of the mouth of the casserole, and then sprinkled some onto the floor inside the stone platform.
However, even so, a little water was poured into the casserole and a thin layer of water was laid on the bottom of the casserole. In an instant, the white powder was flushed with water and melted into the water, and the water was almost transparent.
It looks much better now - the lights near the stone platform are dim after all, and even if the imperial chef walks here, he may not notice that there is a thin layer of water in the casserole. And even if he notices it, he may just think that he did not pour the water clean after washing the casserole, and probably won't care.
Xiaohua breathed a sigh of relief, quickly put the water scoop back, then quickly left the stone platform, returned to the place where she was when she first entered the imperial kitchen, and said to the two imperial kitchens, "Uh... since it will take so long, I will go back first. Please, the two chefs should be as fast as possible, your second princess can't wait."
The fat imperial chef heard this and turned his head and smiled at Xiaohua, saying, "No problem. Once we do it later, we will immediately send the apprentice over there. Ensure that as fast as possible, please let Your Highness the Second Princess be restless."
"Yeah, OK," Xiaohua nodded, turned around and left.
...
After half an hour.
The porridge was finally ready.
The fat chef brought over the large casserole for cooking and prepared to pour the porridge inside into the small casserole for serving.
He poured the first portion of the porridge into the little princess's casserole.
No problems occurred.
He didn't notice that there was already a thin layer of water in the casserole.
But when he moved and began to pour the second portion of porridge into the second princess's casserole.
"Zi Liu..." He fell halfway through, his feet slipped, staggered, and almost fell.
But the chef is still stable after all.
Even though half of his body almost fell down, the casserole in his hand did not let go, but just swayed violently in the air and sprinkled some porridge.
The sprinkled porridge fell on the side walls of the small casserole and on the tray below, which looked quite disgusting.
The fat imperial chef quickly stood firm and carefully placed the large casserole that had not yet been poured on the table beside him. He looked down and saw some water on the ground under his feet.
"I'm going, why is there water here? When those apprentices were cleaning, they were too unscrupulous," said Fatty Yuchu angrily. Mobile phone users, please browse and read, and a better reading experience comes from Ai.com.
