The golden and jade of the peasant girl in charge

Chapter 482 Gaining Trust and Ning Ci Makes a Move (1)
What a... understanding little goblin!Ning Ci smiled at him, jumped onto Jiang Chengye's shoulder, and said in a low voice, "How do you know that I want to go to Shangshi Bureau?"

Jiang Chengye lifted her up: "I can tell what you're thinking by just moving your eyebrows, hurry up!"

Ning Ci stretched out his arms around Jiang Chengye's neck, only to feel his body lighten, that familiar feeling seemed to have never changed - in the past in Hejia Village, he also ran all over the mountain with her on his back like this.

"Be careful! It's hanging on a tree branch!" When it landed on the ground, Ning Ci reached out and thumped Jiang Chengye: "I haven't seen you for a few years, and the lightness kung fu is not as good as it used to be!"

Jiang Chengye directly pinched her as a warning, Ning Ci smiled, and sneaked into Shangshi Bureau together with him.

The Shangshi Order of the Shangshi Bureau is already Shen Yuanhui, and it is already deep.The supper delivered to each palace was placed in the imperial dining room, and there were not many people in the Shangshi Bureau. The two sneaked into the place dedicated to each other's ingredients, but the door was locked.

Jiang Chengye patted Ning Ci on the shoulder, beckoning her to go away, raised his hand and pulled out a hairpin from her head. Ning Ci was caught off guard, and when he came back to his senses, there was only a "click", and the lock had already been unlocked. up.

Ning Ci stared dumbfounded at Jiang Chengye, who had a smile on his lips, took the lock in his hand, looked left and right, and really just opened it like this.

"You are really a multifunctional man!" Ning Ci smiled and threw the lock back to him, and stepped in with her skirt in hand.The man who was praised felt very useful, and followed with a smile.

The ingredients in the ingredient room are all the freshest things. Due to the high demand in the palace, the place to store ingredients is also very limited. Not only is it large, but there is also a high-end place like a refrigerator.Ning Ci sniffed one by one, and finally pointed to a place: "Vegetables are all stored here."

Jiang Chengye stood aside with folded arms and expressed his opinion: "I think that if you work hard on the ingredients, you may not be able to find out anything. You must know that these ingredients have gone through layer after layer from cleaning to cooking. If you really want to use them This poisoning is really not a clever way."

Of course Ning Ci knew that fools would poison so bluntly, she stroked her chin and said, "But Yunxiaochuan is clearly a source of misfortune, even if someone knows it, but once you find something here, do you think Shen Yuanhui can really do it?" Can you make it clear? He is so swearing, there must be a trick waiting for him!"

Jiang Chengye glanced at Ning Ci thoughtfully: "Why... why are you targeting Yun Xiaochuan so much? And..." Jiang Chengye approached dangerously: "Whether it's Yun Xiaochuan or Shen Yuanhui, to think about other men like this in front of your husband, Is it really suitable?"

Ning Ci didn't have time to talk to her about these sour vinegars now, she was about to open her mouth, when she suddenly moved her nose, moved to a wooden stand, took out a fire pocket and took a picture, her eyes lit up immediately: "This is it!"

Jiang Chengye didn't know what she found, so he came over to have a look, only to find that it was just celery.

"Do you really think there is something wrong with this dish?"

Ning Ci put away the fire notes, took out a handful of vegetables and put them away: "Let's go."

Jiang Chengye: "..."

Stealing a handful of celery from Shangshi Bureau, Ning Ci carried Jiang Chengye to the Empress Dowager's bedroom.

Because the Empress Dowager was ill and felt unbearable at night, Jiang Yan was worried and couldn't rest at all. In addition, Jiang Chengye and Ning Ci hadn't come back yet, so Jiang Yan didn't rest either.

When Ning Ci and the others came back and threw a handful of celery from their sleeves, Jiang Yan felt that his patience had really run out: "You guys have been gone for so long, do you still think there is something wrong with the celery?"

Ning Ci straightened her sleeves, and said: "I also ask the emperor to order someone to prepare the stove, pots and bowls."

Jiang Yan couldn't understand: "You..."

Ning Ci vowed: "The empress dowager eats most of these dishes. The poison is chronic. Naturally, it is taken for a long time and the amount is small each time. Therefore, only this dish is the most suspicious. If the emperor is really eager to find the black hand behind the scenes and cure the empress dowager." , please don’t waste any more time!”

Jiang Yan remained silent, seeing Ning Ci's confident appearance, he finally ordered someone to arrange things aside.But Jiang Yan was still worried: "In addition to the daily meals, the Empress Dowager also has other medicinal supplements. Maybe she was poisoned elsewhere."

Ning Ci has already started to deal with the handful of celery: "But medicinal supplements, no matter how precious they are, are medicines after all, just like ginseng, although it is precious, sometimes it is mixed with other ingredients, which can kill people. If I were the person who poisoned me, I would not choose to poison in the medicine."

While Ning Ci was talking, he had already washed and cut the celery and put it on a plate.The cooking fume was heavy, Jiang Yan asked people to separate the two sides so as not to disturb the Queen Mother, but he couldn't help but stand by Ning Ci's side and watch her skillfully cooking.

The surrounding servants all felt strange, after all, this girl was the first person to directly cook in the queen mother's bedroom since the founding of the country, isn't it strange!

The scent from Ning Ci's side quickly spread to the Queen Mother's side. The Queen Mother slightly opened her eyes, and the old mother on the side suddenly became excited: "The Queen Mother has an appetite, is there anything you want to eat?"

The queen mother just opened her eyes. Although the smell was fragrant, she felt uncomfortable in her stomach, so she finally shook her head.

A plate of celery was fried quickly, Jiang Chengye wiped Ning Ci's hands thousands of times, but at the moment he diverted his attention, Ning Ci ate the plate of celery directly with chopsticks.

"Ning Ci..."

"Xiao Ci!"

Both Jiang Chengye and Jiang Yan were taken aback, but it was too late to stop them now, Ning Ci's throat moved, and he had already eaten.

Ning Ci's actions undoubtedly frightened the two men, but Jiang Chengye's nervousness was natural, and Jiang Yan's anxiety became a little unnatural.Jiang Chengye cast a warning look at him, Jiang Yan knew that he was overstepping, so he changed the topic: "Cheng Ye, quickly see if there is anything unusual about her."

Even if Jiang Yan doesn't say these things, Jiang Chengye will naturally do them. With a sullen face, he pulls the woman who has no self-awareness to his side, and stretches out his hand to feel her pulse. Seeing him being so stupid for the first time, Ning Ci couldn't help laughing She said: "Why are you so nervous, you won't die." She intentionally or unintentionally revealed the bracelet on her wrist to Jiang Chengye.This bracelet was given to her by Jiang Chengye back then. Once it touches something poisonous, the bracelet will change color.But Jiang Chengye looked at the bracelet, and couldn't tell how much it had changed for a while, he could only judge from Ning Ci's expression that there should be no serious problems.

However, is it really okay?

Half an hour later, Ning Ci's face turned blue, and it was Jiang Chengye and Jiang Yan who followed him to change their faces.

"Xiaoci!" Jiang Chengye only felt that his heart was suspended, he stretched out his hand to support her and checked her pulse again, his face became even uglier—it was indeed poisoned!
