The Queen Mother did not really believe Murong Yingluo's words, so of course she wanted to test it out. She had already ordered the imperial kitchen to prepare lunch, leaving Princess Zheng to have lunch with the Queen.
Murong Yingluo had already guessed that the Queen Mother wanted to test her. Fortunately, Si Wushang had done some homework on her beforehand. Prince Zheng was so thoughtful that he even considered all of this.
Soon all the dishes on the table were served. Murong Yingluo took a quick look and found that there were three layers of questionable dishes, most of which were placed in front of her.
The Empress Dowager glanced at Yu'er with loving eyes. She didn't expect that Yu'er would come. She was afraid that the child would eat tampered food, so she kept the child with her.
"Mother Yang, try the dishes!"
"Yes!" The nanny held a silver needle in her hand and searched through every dish. The silver needle did not change color.
"Get down!"
Murong Yingluo made a calculation in her mind. Although these vegetables were not poisonous, they violated the principle of food complementing each other. Eating them in the stomach would cause yin and yang imbalance and damage the body. In serious cases, it would cause infertility in women.
"The food has been tasted, please use your chopsticks!"
Nanny Yang waited and picked up some of the Queen Mother's favorite food, put it on a plate and placed it in front of the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother personally delivered it to Yu'er. Yu'er just wanted to be by her mother's side and looked at her with red eyes.
"Yu'er, thank you grandma!" Yu'er said reluctantly.
Murong Yingluo, however, looked at the food in front of her. She only picked up a good assorted soy sauce plate, took some spring rolls, rolled up the shredded meat and put it in her mouth to chew carefully.
The Queen Mother saw that Murong Yingluo only ate the same food. It seemed that she was well versed in medical science and could see that every dish was cooked with care.
However, Yu'er found it interesting to see her aunt rolling spring rolls. "Aunt, can you make a vegetable roll for Yu'er?"
"Of course." Yingluo hurriedly wrapped a vegetable roll and handed it over.
The Queen Mother frowned slightly, "Princess Zheng has just recovered from a serious illness. She should eat some nourishing soup. The Ai family thinks that the ginseng, deer antler, and black chicken soup is good for replenishing qi and blood." Aunt Yang filled a bowl with understanding and handed it over.
Yingluo looked at the soup and said, "Thank you, Mother, for your concern."
Murong Yingluo picked up the spoon and stirred the chicken soup gently, looking at the ingredients floating in the soup cup. In addition to ginseng, deer antler, black-bone chicken, perilla was added to the soup. In addition to the light bitter taste, there was also a faint aroma of perilla.
It's just that raw radish seeds are added to it. Although they are ground and mixed with perilla, the hard outer shell can be distinguished.
You must know that taking ginseng and radish seeds together will break Qi and cause an imbalance of yin and yang. Deer antler and radish seeds will disrupt qi and blood and lead to hair loss. Black-bone chicken will become bloated and deflate when exposed to radish seeds, causing diarrhea. If you drink this bowl of soup...
....
After taking a look at Yu'er, he realized that the little guy sent by King Zheng must be useful, and quietly gave him a wink.
The Queen Mother saw that Yingluo was just holding it and not drinking it, "Princess Zheng, why don't you drink it? Could it be that you dislike the Ai family's gift soup because it is too nourishing?"
"Of course not!" That's all! The little guy didn't seem to understand what he meant. As the saying goes, a long-term illness makes a doctor, and King Zheng is well versed in medical science. It shouldn't be difficult for him to recuperate his body after drinking it, so he reluctantly took a sip.
Wei'er saw Yingluo wink at him, but she didn't understand what it meant? Could it be that her aunt's soup tastes good?
"Auntie! Is that soup delicious? Yu'er wants to drink it too!"
"Poof!" Murong Yingluo took the opportunity to spit out a mouthful of soup. The chicken soup was splashed on the dishes in front of her and rendered inedible.
Murong Yingluo looked frightened and hurriedly knelt down and explained: "Please forgive me, Queen Mother. My daughter-in-law didn't do it on purpose. She was just a little anxious when she heard that the prince wanted to drink this chicken soup. My child will get angry if he drinks it."
The Queen Mother put down her chopsticks with a gloomy expression. She knew in her heart that Murong Yingluo did this on purpose and was about to accuse her.
At this time, Bupo outside the palace called out: "The emperor has arrived! Prince Zheng has arrived!"
As soon as the banquet started, the three of them had already arrived at the door, telling everyone not to make any announcements.
The emperor walked in the front, and Prince Zheng Si Wushang followed behind. Their eyes rested on Murong Yingluo who was kneeling on the ground.
Murong Yingluo hurriedly called out: "Your Majesty, long live long live!" This actually resolved all the embarrassment in the room.
"Get flat!"
Si Wuyue raised a gentle curve and glanced at his wife and children. She didn't expect Yu'er to be here.
"The Queen Mother is having lunch. It happens that I and Prince Zheng haven't had lunch yet, so why not use it together."
The Queen Mother looked at the dishes on the table and realized that her son was born with a heart disease and had to eat a light diet, which was not suitable for him at all.
"These dishes have become cold. The Ai family will order the imperial kitchen to cook some more and send them over. Mother and son have not talked together for a long time."
After ordering the royal meal to be removed, everyone sat down one after another. The Queen Mother's eyes lingered on Si Wushang's face, and she saw that he looked very good, "Prince Zheng looks very good today."
Si Wushang nodded slightly and said, "Thanks to my mother for caring about me, my son and I have become much healthier."
The emperor came here to resolve the rumors, "I also heard that King Zheng finally found a cure. I am deeply pleased. This Princess Zheng has made a great contribution to the establishment of Han Dynasty. The rumors in the market are really unfounded."
"
The Queen Mother frowned in displeasure, it was really displeasing that the two brothers were actually singing in harmony.
"The Ai family has also heard about the rumors. The rumors have spread throughout the imperial capital. It is a terrible thing to do. Regardless of whether the rumors are true or false, it will bring disgrace to the royal family."
Si Wushang hurriedly picked up his clothes and knelt on the ground, "Mother, Princess Zheng was personally chosen by her sons. My sons can guarantee that the princess will be virtuous and virtuous, and her civil and martial arts skills will not be inferior to those of men. The rumors in the market are not true."
Murong Yingluo also agreed and knelt on the ground, "I beg my mother to learn from this."
Si Wuyue laughed loudly and said: "Mother, what kind of person Princess Zheng is, I think Prince Zheng knows best. Since there are rumors that Princess Zheng is a tough woman, just prove that this statement is true. The rumors are natural
If you don’t attack, you will destroy yourself.”
His son and Prince Zheng actually joined forces to deal with him, and he was very unhappy and said in his heart: "Then how can the emperor prove it?"
Si Wuyue responded hurriedly: "Mother, you have forgotten that in a few days, King Zheng will be in his double decade. I can hold a birthday banquet for King Zheng in the palace. At that time, as long as Princess Zheng presents her talents, the two of them will be together."
When people show love to others, who would dare to say that the Murong family's family tradition is not upright?"
Si Wushang echoed: "My son, I also have this intention.
Murong Yingluo, who was on the side, frowned slightly and looked at Si Wushang. She was good at swords, guns, swords and halberds, but the talent show was indeed a bit difficult. She was not good at playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. He would really cause trouble for herself.
