Wu Chao: Take the whole family to escape the famine

Chapter 539
It was inconvenient for King Xuan to enter the harem, so he went back to Changning Hall to play chess with his father, and Mother Zhao led Shen Yuan to Yufeng Hall.

They didn't find anything along the way, and after entering the Jade Phoenix Palace, Mother Zhao led her directly to the dining room.

There are such dining rooms in Changning Hall and Yufeng Hall, and they are used to open small stoves for emperors and empresses. I don’t know that there is no such thing as the imperial palaces in history. Anyway, Dasheng Kingdom is like this.

Shen Yuan went into the dining room, and just put on her bib, Mother Zhao came in with a menu, Shen Yuan saw that it was the same as the emperor's menu, it seems that Changning Palace also has queens' eyes and ears.

I found an excuse to get some spring water out, and after that, only a few cooking chefs were left in the dining room, and they started to get busy.

After surviving in a hurry, fine sweat broke out on his forehead, and the last dish of pickled vegetables and meat was a little slow, and Director Yao, the chief eunuch of Yufeng Palace, came to urge him.

"Why are you so slow? The empress is about to stop chopsticks, and there is still one dish left!" Pushing the door and seeing that the door is closed, she said angrily, "Why don't you show it to others? I'm afraid people will learn it." go?'

Zhao Nanny: "Please trouble Director Yao to report to the empress, and say that it will be ready soon."

"Hurry up!" Director Yao left after urging, and when he opened the window and passed by, a gust of wind blew in. Shen Yuan, who was about to put the dishes out of the pot, suddenly took a sniff, and a scent that seemed to be absent penetrated into her mouth Nostrils, hurriedly looked out the window, and saw the figures of several father-in-laws passing by.

Shen Yuan sniffed his nose a few more times, the scent had dissipated at this time, it seemed to be somewhat similar to the scent of Xia Luoluo, but it was not the same, besides, it was a few father-in-laws who walked past, how could a father-in-law steal someone? impossible.

Thinking of this, Shen Yuan relaxed his vigilance and continued to work.

After the work was done, the queen also ate, and rewarded 'Xiao Shenzi' with ten taels of silver.

A little waiter brought out a silver ingot on a tray, "The empress is satisfied with the meal, I will give you ten taels of silver, thank you."

"Thank you, empress, for your reward. Your majesty will live forever." After Shen Yu'an thanked her, she was led out by mother Zhao.

After leaving the Yufeng Palace and coming to the palace road, they saw King Xuan approaching the Changning Palace, and the two of them left the palace together.

"Is the emperor's sister-in-law investigating Jinyan's case three years ago?" On the way back to Yewang Mansion, King Xuan asked Shen Yuan. After staying in Yewang Mansion for so long, he knew that Shen Yuan was very worried about this matter.

"Yes." Shen Yuan thought for a moment and answered truthfully.

Originally, she thought that many people's privacy would be involved, and it would be good for her to investigate, but then she thought that without the help of King Xuan, the investigation of this case would not be possible.

"Didn't the sister-in-law have some new clues?" "Xuan Xuan still knows something about his sister-in-law, and he will definitely not "shoot without a target".

"I did get a clue here, but right now I'm not sure if it has anything to do with Jinyan's case."

"What clues?" King Xuan changed his lazy demeanor. The case back then was too worrying. Who didn't want to find out the villain and punish him? "We'll talk about it when we go back." Shen Yuan said.

It was still early when we returned to Yewang Mansion, so Shen Yuan and King Xuan sat in the flower hall, drinking tea while continuing the previous topic.

Shen Yuan took a sip of tea, grabbed a handful of melon seeds and said while knocking.

"A few days ago, Ding Xiaolian from Yuling Palace made a deal with me, and then gave me a piece of secret information for free, that the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace had an affair with someone."

King Xuan was shocked, and the tea cup brought to his mouth stopped for a long while without any response.

It took a long time before he put the teacup on the table, and said inconceivably, "The palace is so heavily guarded, who has the guts? Could it be the hidden guard brought by the princess from Daqi, causing people to misunderstand?
"No, not the secret guard." Shen Yuan shook his head in denial, and then told about Charlotte's unique 'perfume'.

"If it's a dark guard, it's impossible to get the smell of her, so this matter is eighty-nine out of ten true."

"It's none of our business for the Crown Princess to have an affair with the guards." King Xuan said, "But since the emperor's wife suspects that he has something to do with Jinyan's case, then the emperor will definitely cooperate with you to find out the truth of this matter."

"Okay." Shen Yuan nodded, "But you have to check slowly, don't startle the snake."

In the next few days, Shen Yu'an pretended to be a little Shenzi every day and followed King Xuan into the palace.

The concubines in the harem also somehow knew that there was a little Shenzi next to King Xuan, "the cooking is delicious, so they came to invite her to cook and start a small stove." Naturally, King Xuan was not happy, but in order to search for clues, Shen Yuan , Let them be cattle'.

On the sixth day, Song Zhu, the servant girl beside Xia Luoluo, stopped them.

"I have met His Highness King Xuan." Song Zhu bowed to King Xuan, "The servant is the maidservant next to the concubine of Zhaoshu Palace. The lady heard that the little Shenzi next to His Highness is excellent in cooking. Let him go over and cook two dishes for my mother's appetizer."

After working so hard for so many days, isn't Shen Yuan waiting for someone from Zhaoshu Palace to invite him? Hehe, as expected, here he is.

Then he said a few words to King Xuan tacitly, and left with Song Zhu.

It was the first time for Shen Yu'an to enter Zhaoshu Palace, because Charlotte loves to sprinkle that kind of perfume, so when passing outside the palace, he could smell the strong fragrance, if the man had slept in Charlotte's bed, If you don't change your clothes or take a shower, you will definitely get this smell on your body.

The strange thing is that she almost ran all over the entire palace, and she just didn't smell any smell on any of the guards.

After the dishes were ready, the prince came when Charlotte was preparing to eat.

As soon as Wei Yuande ate the dishes on the table, he squinted his long and narrow eyes and said, "This little eunuch's cooking skills must have been learned in Yewang's Mansion, but the dishes are still slightly inferior to those at Penglai Restaurant."

Of course it was slightly inferior, except for the emperor, when Shen Yuan was cooking in other palaces, he mixed the spring water in the space with ordinary water, so as not to arouse suspicion.

But this alone is already delicious, Wei Yuande was soaked in rain and dew during this time, and was almost squeezed dry, with a pair of panda eyes.

He ate up all the dishes on the table, and was belching after eating, Xiao Linzi hurried in to report.

"No, no, it's not good, Zhong Liangdi of Moyun Palace was bitten by a poisonous snake, and the imperial doctor said that the child might not be saved, so His Royal Highness should hurry over and have a look.

"What?" Prince Wei Yuande stood up hesitantly when he heard the words. He was so busy spending money here and there, but the five- or six-month-old child was going to lose his life again? God was playing with him. ?
He said angrily, "Where did the snake come from in this winter? Or a poisonous snake~~ Are all the servants in Moyun Palace dead?"

"The head of the guards went over to check, and said that the snake was warmer by hiding near the kang, so it ended its hibernation early and crawled onto Zhong Liangdi's bed
"This is a terrible thing~~" Wei Yuande cursed a few words, and left in a hurry.

"Xiao Linzi?" Shen Yuan was about to leave Zhaoshu Palace, she heard the conversation between Wei Yuande and Xiao Linzi clearly, and hurriedly chased after Xiao Linzi.

"Zhong Liang Di was bitten by a poisonous snake, right? That poisonous snake was killed? If you kill it, you can pick it up for me, and I'll use it to make wine." He said and nudged Xiao Linzi with his elbow.

Xiao Lin was so happy that his bones were crisp, "Okay, then you wait outside the East Palace, and I will find a way to get it for you."
