Seeing that she was holding the bowl but not using it, Mrs. Huayang looked puzzled, "What? Don't you like the taste?"
Xie Songhua chuckled and said, "I can't quite accept this taste."
"It's like this. You'll know what it tastes when you take a bite first."
He actually wanted to force her to drink.
Princess Huimin spoke at the right time, "My uncle specially allocated this to my aunt's royal chef to make it. My aunt also values you and rewards you. Don't be ignorant of the compliment."
"Huimin!" Mrs. Huayang frowned when she heard this and scolded softly, "You girl, why are you always so reckless when you talk!"
He turned around and said to Xie Songhua in a friendly manner: "Huimin is just like this. Don't argue with her."
One sings the bad side, the other sings the red face, and they both mean to ask her to drink the bowl of stuff.
Xie Songhua had a very faint smile on his face and still didn't move.
Mrs. Huayang patted her gently and said, "If you really don't like it, I'll talk to the chef and try a different taste."
Xie Songhua picked up the spoon and gently stirred it in the bowl. Sure enough, she saw the eyes of the two people falling on her hand.
"The princess doesn't like the taste too much?"
Seeing that she finally took a spoonful and put it to her mouth, she suddenly stopped and asked Huimin doubtfully.
Huimin just stared at the spoon in her hand. She didn't expect that she would suddenly ask this question. She was stunned for a moment and took two sips quickly, "How could it be? This is delicious! Try it."
Mrs. Huayang also smiled and took a few sips, then stopped looking at Xie Songhua.
You have already done this, what else is there to pretend to be?
Seeing that she finally took two sips, the smiles on the faces of Mrs. Huayang and Huimin crept into the corners of their eyes.
Just as he was about to speak, the palace maid suddenly walked in hurriedly, "Madam, there are guards in royal robes outside. They said they were taking Miss Xie back to the house on the order of the prince."
Upon hearing this, Huimin frowned, "What? Brother Yu ordered it?"
The palace maid kept her head lowered and replied softly, "Yes, today is the day that Qin Tian supervises the calculation. Today is Yinacai. I don't know what went wrong. The news was not sent to Xie's house. At this moment, the prince came to the door.
Only then did I know that Xie Ge is always in Wenyuan Pavilion, and Miss Xie is no longer at home."
Probably because she couldn't hear about Xiao Yu's upcoming marriage, Huimin suddenly looked embarrassed.
Just as he was about to say something, Mrs. Huayang took her hand and said with a smile: "So that's it. Since today is a good day to thank Miss Xie, my old lady can't keep people here like this. Go quickly and get down to business."
important."
Xie Songhua still bowed politely, thanked Mrs. Huayang for her kindness, and then Shi Shiran left.
Anyway, their goal has been achieved, and there is no reason to force themselves to stay here.
As expected, there were two royal guards waiting outside. When they saw her coming, they clasped their fists and saluted.
The two people immediately looked Xie Songhua up and down, then looked at each other and frowned slightly.
But without saying anything, he took the gift from Mrs. Huayang and walked ahead.
After walking a long distance, she quietly spit out the bit of cheese she had not swallowed in her mouth onto the handkerchief.
Under the circumstances just now, she had no choice but to eat. Even if her hands slipped and spilled a bowl, she had no doubt that there would be several more bowls waiting behind her.
Therefore, I can only hide a little bit in my mouth and take it back for a closer inspection.
What makes Xie Songhua a little puzzled is that based on her preliminary judgment, there is indeed something added to the bowl of cheese, but it doesn't seem to be a fatal poison.
What is Mrs. Huayang's purpose?
Xie Songhua walked step by step in the maze built by the palace walls, and for the first time, she did not feel panic.
About……
She raised her eyes. The two people walking in front of her were tall, with cold expressions. They wore embroidered spring knives at their waists. They were walking in the same pace and making the same movements. They were obviously not doing anything, but their aura alone was enough to intimidate them.
human heart.
When Xie Songhua walked out of the palace gate, an exquisite porcelain bowl was placed on Han Jian's desk.
He didn't raise his head. The pen in his hand was drawing on the folded book presented to him. He quickly put it down and picked up another one.
Then he glanced into the bowl.
The contents in the bowl have somewhat melted, and the faint milky aroma slowly spreads out. Mixed with the medicinal aroma in the room, there is a special fragrance.
"how?"
"The cheese that Mrs. Huayang gave to Miss Xie contains a special anti-aging medicine."
Hearing this, he paused with the pen in his hand and raised his eyes to glance at the little eunuch below.
The eunuch quickly said: "You guys have been watching it, and if you find something wrong, you have already changed it."
The little eunuch knelt on the ground for a long time and never heard the answer from above, so he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Just when I was wondering if I had done something wrong, I heard a faint response from above, "Yes."
The light word made the people below feel relieved. They stood up quickly and took the bowl away again.
Han Jian picked up his pen again and read the next memorial. The room returned to its usual tranquility, with only a small medicine jar in the corner of the room making a gurgling sound under the care of the palace maid.
Xie Songhua had heard two days ago that the Qintian Supervisor would plan a good day and the Ministry of Rites would come forward to celebrate the six rites.
But there is no news at all about when it will happen.
I didn't expect that it would be today and I would go back in such a hurry.
When she arrived, the middle door of the mansion was already open, but she entered the house through the back door.
When Aunt Mei saw her coming back, she immediately smiled and said auspicious words about the wheel.
Dingxiang and Cuiliu were already waiting at the door. After hearing this, they smiled and gave Xie Songhua the reward.
Then we walked all the way, and the maids and women on the road kept saying hello.
Just after going back and forth like this, the house seemed to suddenly become festive.
Ding Xiang and Cuiliu accompanied her to the front hall, where Xie Yuncang was already back.
At this time, the old lady, the Xie Yuncang brothers and the Qi family were all entertaining the guests.
Xie Feiwu, on the other hand, was originally the uncle of his mother-in-law's family, but now he has become the person who handles matters for her husband's family.
Seeing her coming, the old lady immediately came over and took her hand. She smiled very affectionately and pulled her towards the central hall. She lowered her voice and said, "Your Majesty is very caring."
Following her line of sight, Xie Songhua saw Xiao Yu, wearing an indigo embroidered python robe, standing in front of Xie Yuncang with a dazzling look, his brows clear, and his expression calm, listening to what the other party said.
Behind him, there were two neat rows of guards in brocade robes carrying thirty-six mascots cushioned in red silk.
Acceptance is not a low-level offer. Generally speaking, it is enough to prepare a few symbolic acceptance gifts.
At present, it seems that it is more solemn to leave this matter to the Ministry of Etiquette.
Can this be regarded as Xiao Yu’s intention?
Look at his face, is there any hint of happiness?
But this is a good thing for Xie Songhua. If we want to negotiate terms with him later, it may be relatively easier.
The smile on the old lady's face never broke, and she pulled Xie Songhua all the way to the front, "Your Majesty, you are really considerate."
Xiao Yu's eyes turned around, seemed to glance at Xie Songhua, and then fell on the old lady again.
"It's all handled by the Etiquette Department."
The voice was still so cold, which made the old lady tremble and she almost couldn't maintain the smile on her face.
After all, it was the old lady who was well-informed and did not lose her sense of proportion. She smiled and said: "Okay, okay, since we are a family, don't sit in this hall and go back!"
