bad, i'm a fool

Chapter 185 Medicated Diet
It took only two days for Skyhawk City to cross Bailan Mountain.

After all, it is the "guard of honor" of Simeng. This legal team is well-equipped and maintains its formation at all times. Dao, there are no beasts, but also very decent.

Jiang Ningyun never looked for the No. [-] machine again, which fully confirmed Han Dongwen's previous guess. She still only looked at the emperor's eyeliner from top to bottom, and she had no doubts for the time being.

Then, the fact that Machine No. [-] attacked and pierced the long-haired man was just considered cruel.

In the past two days, apart from eating, drinking and having fun in the palace, the most important thing for Han Dongwen was to be there and personally witness the process of handing over the "Bronze Sparrow Seal" between Zhong Lilin and Li Zai, who was already seven or eight points healed.

It was much simpler than he thought, just burning incense, slaughtering a pair of birds, and then some rather bluffing light and shadow effects.

"Ahem, Li Zai has already received the seal?"

When he asked Zhong Lilin this way, the other party bowed his head and said yes, and that was it.

Afterwards, they walked, ate and drank, and Tan Taifu never talked to him about the next court.

That's fine, at least now he still has a lot of things to solve, the first priority is to survive the invitation ceremony that will be held next.

Among all the people Han Dongwen has come into contact with, the only one who may have something to do with this matter is naturally Taka's prince Gao.

He vaguely felt that this time Grand Duke Tilda in West Asia insisted that Simeng send people to West Asia to inspect the five cities, and there was also a factor of Gao, but it is a pity that the No. The negotiation between the two can only be clarified after Jiang Ningyun returns to Siyang.

Han Dongwen finished his dinner and was thinking about whether he should look through a few books sent by Taishuge Wen Lao a few days ago. Xiao Hongdou has brought two maids to clean up his bedroom and put on new incense , and finally left a small bowl inlaid with porcelain and enamel on the desk, which contained crystal clear soup of red dates, lotus seeds and snow fungus.

"Dessert?"

Han Dongwen picked up the bowl with a smile, without using a spoon, just tilted the bowl a little and drank into his mouth.

"I rely on!"

The next second, he suddenly let out an exclamation, and the porcelain bowl in his hand fell to the ground and shattered with a bang.

"Your Highness!"

Startled, Xiao Hongdou stuffed the tray she was holding into the arms of the maid next to her, and hurried forward: "Your Highness, what's wrong?!"

"This soup—"

Han Dongwen's fingers trembled, and he pointed tremblingly at the soup scattered all over the floor, and said weakly, "Who made this soup, who is it?"

Seeing His Royal Highness like this for the first time, Xiao Hongdou's mind suddenly became confused. She hurriedly supported Han Dongwen to sit down on a chair beside her, only to feel that her hands and feet were numb.

Someone poisoned and assassinated? !
Little Hongdou felt that she was about to lose her breath, so she bit her lower lip until it turned white, and turned around to shout to the two maids: "Call, call the imperial doctor, hurry up!"

"No, no..."

Han Dongwen propped himself up and waved his hands: "No, I just want to ask who made this soup in the imperial dining room, it's too—"

His behavior was not poisoned by someone.

The most vicious poison will not have such a violent reaction as soon as it hits the tip of the tongue.

There is only one reason for Han Dongwen's appearance——

This soup is so fucking bad!

Red dates, lotus seeds and snow fungus soup, this is a long-standing and tried-and-tested dessert in sugar water. What kind of wind did the imperial dining room make this bowl of sour and bitter, as if it had gone bad?
"Your Highness, this..."

Confirming again and again that Han Dongwen is fine, Xiao Hongdou finally let go of her hanging heart.

The two maids hurried forward to clean the ground, their complexions almost as pale as Han Dongwen's.

Such a big movement, if someone really assassinated——

Naturally, what they were worried about was their own lives. Whether it was the invisible assassin or the subsequent accountability, if something really happened, how could they escape?
But Xiao Hongdou only looked at Han Dongwen worriedly, and hurriedly brought the brewed tea for him to drink slowly, and still asked worriedly: "Your Highness, is it really just that the taste doesn't suit your taste? Or call the imperial physician..."

Han Dongwen shook his head weakly but firmly. In the past two days, he will inevitably have to take care of the No. [-] machine. If he finds an imperial doctor to accompany him and finds that His Highness cannot be woken up, he will be mad.

"All right……"

Xiao Hongdou pursed her lips: "By the way, this soup... This soup is not served by the imperial dining room, but a medicine soup sent by Concubine Chi. It is said that yellow lemon leaves were added, and fermented almonds were replaced with lotus seeds. That’s how it can soothe God.”

Chi Hanqing...

Hearing the chef's name, the soup suddenly became reasonable.

Han Dongwen waved his hand weakly: "Why did Concubine Chi think of sending me this soup today?"

"Your Highness, you forgot that Concubine Chi is attending the bed today."

While he was talking to Xiao Hongdou, the two maids had already cleaned the room quickly and retreated outside the bedroom.

Han Dongwen was only taken aback for a moment before he realized it.

Candidates for the bedroom are always arranged according to Wenjun's preferences, and there is no lack of whim.

However, except for one situation, that is, the two concubines, if Jiang Keyin and Chi Hanqing also lined up to serve the bed when Han Dongwen took the initiative to turn over the cards, it means that there are arrangements from the judicial department and the military department behind them.

Han Dongwen sighed lightly: "Okay, you can rest, I'm fine, so I don't need to report to the imperial physician."

Xiao Hongdou nodded lightly, packed her things and went out. Before going out, she still looked back at Han Dongwen with some worry.

------

"Han Qing."

Han Dongwen only felt that his throat was a little dry.

In the sleeping hall, the two of them only sat on a side table, and they didn't even meet their eyes.

He suddenly remembered the scene of "interviewing" the girl from Yuhualou on the first machine, and showed a wry smile.

"Your Highness, can you take that medicinal soup? It is something that can soothe the nerves. I hope Your Highness will not blame Han Qing for being troublesome."

Chi Hanqing's face was so soft and charming for business use, the corners of Han Dongwen's mouth twitched: "How come, I still want to thank you."

"Your Highness is joking."

An awkward silence.

In the past more than a month, His Highness would not let him go every day, but suddenly he seemed to lose interest, and started busying around, and there was a visit to West Asia. Under a burst of panic, Chi Hanqing couldn't think about it. Reminds me of the last time I was in this dormitory.

Han Dongwen, who was sitting by the side, was even more on pins and needles.

How does this kind of thing start?

Three two one group?
He only felt that there were ants crawling in his heart, and suddenly he only felt that there was something good about Jiang Keyin's strength.

Chi Hanqing stood up gently and walked in front of Han Dongwen. He swallowed and his heart beat faster.

"Your Highness seems to have something on his mind."

Chi Hanqing gently turned sideways and sat on Han Dongwen's lap.

The posture she used was wonderful, gracefully supporting her weight with her legs, making Han Dongwen feel that her arms were as light as nothing, and full of the clear but not greasy fragrance.

It's so strange, an ancient joke said that modern women are scented by cosmetics, so why do Chi Hanqing and the others smell like this?

"Cough, I..."

Han Dongwen's hand hesitated for a moment, before wrapping around Chi Hanqing's waist.

"I'm just thinking about something today, maybe—maybe I'm not interested."

After hearing this, Chi Hanqing only leaned slightly towards Han Dongwen: "His Royal Highness worked too hard a few days ago, and even visited West Asia, so naturally he needs to take a good rest."

The scent is closer.

"Sia..."

Han Dongwen smiled: "The last time I went to West Asia, I saw mass on the last day. How does Han Qing feel?"

Chi Hanqing nodded lightly: "The concubine has not yet been able to thank His Highness for accompanying the concubine to do such a meaningless thing in his busy schedule."

"Where did it come from?"

On the day of the mass, perhaps because there were foreigners like Han Dongwen and others, the theme of "helping the needy people" of the mass was not reflected. All the people present were well-dressed and devoutly praying people from West Asia.

This is actually not the same as the mass she wanted to see for the relief of the people, but it is naturally much better than never seeing it and relying on imagination.

The topic can only be chatted for a few words, and the two fell into a short silence again.

"actually……"

"that……"

As if by coincidence, the two opened their mouths at the same time, Chi Hanqing was taken aback, and quickly lowered his head: "Please speak, Your Highness."

"No no, what did you want to say just now?"

Han Dongwen kicked the ball back, Chi Hanqing looked hesitant, did she really have something to say?
Sure enough, Chi Hanqing bit his lower lip as if he had made up his mind: "Chenqie...Chenqie would like to ask His Highness for a favor."

Her original plan was to work harder at bedtime tonight, to make His Highness comfortable first, and then bring up the matter of delivering medicine, but judging by His Highness's appearance, I am afraid that tonight can escape the catastrophe.

About the medicine, I'm afraid I can only bite the bullet and talk about it first.
