Chapter 27: Poison from Yun Country
Li Xuanji took a bite and immediately spat it out with a complicated expression.
"It's no wonder you don't recognize it. This is a kind of millet from Yun Country. It causes hallucinations and addiction. Long-term consumption can cause people to lose their minds."
“I only think about this every day.”
Manager Zhu slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, I said, I ate it once, why do I think about it every day? I thought it tasted good."
After saying that, he knelt down with a thud, moved to a place not far from Murong Yue's bed, and banged his head on the ground with a bang.
"Your Majesty, it's all my fault."
"I beg Your Majesty to grant me death. I shouldn't..."
The bed curtain was drawn open, and Murong Yue sat up. She was not as angry as before, because she now knew that the poison was not put there by these people, and she suppressed the thought of leaving.
"Kill the one who poisoned you."
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Qi Yuan immediately clasped his fists and bowed in response.
The poison in the dish could not have come from the ingredients, but to be on the safe side, Chief Steward Zhu still asked Lord Qi and the Imperial Master to go to the imperial kitchen.
Gather everyone together again and search the place inside and out.
The last time His Majesty fainted, the imperial kitchen had already been checked.
The palace servants thought that there would be no more searches before the New Year, so they were a bit slack.
Well, Qi Yuan found some problems, but compared with poisoning, they were harmless.
A palace maid hid a pornographic picture.
A young eunuch hid two small white bellybands.
After a brief interrogation, it was discovered that the two were a couple, commonly known as a couple.
Manager Zhu was so angry that he laughed, "This is a small matter, but you shouldn't hide it."
"The emperor has rules. When a couple becomes a couple, they must report to their supervisor and cannot work in the same courtyard."
"You guys are breaking the rules like this, do you want me to kick you all out of the palace?"
The young eunuch immediately knelt down and moved in front of Chief Steward Zhu and Qi Yuan.
He kowtowed and begged for mercy, "I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong."
"Grandpa, I am an orphan and was sold to a black kiln by my aunt. It was Your Majesty who brought people to rescue me."
"I have been imprisoned in the water dungeon for too long, and my life has been ruined. I might as well go to the palace to repay my gratitude."
"What happened between me and Xiaoying is all my fault. I beg Grandpa and Master Qi not to chase us away."
"We can go to the Ministry of Punishment to be punished."
It is true. There were a lot of eunuchs and palace maids in the palace before. The late queen had many concubines and many children, and the growing harem also consumed a lot of personnel.
After the retired emperor ascended the throne, he immediately dismissed all of the previous emperor's concubines.
There were only a few masters left in the palace, and four-fifths of the eunuchs and palace maids were gone.
The palace spent a lot less and the rules changed.
Men and women can live together, but they must not live in the same courtyard or department.
Murong Qian is not stupid. People without roots have no worldly desires, and at most they are greedy for money.
Therefore, eunuchs had to be retained, but they could live a better life and have sex with palace maids who were unwilling to leave the palace, so that they could be more devoted to the palace.
And sometimes, it will become a weak point.
Why not?
As luck would have it, this time they did not report the eating together, and His Majesty was poisoned again.
However, this matter has nothing to do with His Majesty, so Qi Yuan didn't care. He took Chief Steward Zhu and the Imperial Master and went straight to the spicy hot pot restaurant in the capital.
Li Xuanji's eyes were terribly dark. "When I accompanied the Emperor to Yun Country for training, I encountered this kind of millet. People there would put a little in their cooking and soup, and the Emperor was very resistant to it."
"He even took me to eat it once and told me to remember the taste."
He turned his head and looked at Qi Yuan, "The Emperor said that this kind of thing should never appear in Qing Kingdom at any time."
"He also said...if the world is unified in the future, the first thing he will do is burn this thing."
Qi Yuan held the reins tightly.
The corners of his mouth were pursed into a line.
Whether this thing appears directly in the palace or in the capital, it is his responsibility.
Li Xuanji rode his horse and followed behind, the snow piled on the roadside was kicked up by the horse's hooves.
In fact, there was one thing he didn't say. The emperor said at the time that this thing could be used as medicine, but he couldn't find a way, so it was better to destroy it.
The sound of the imperial guards running in unison could be heard from far away on the street.
Xiao Yuanshuang was in the most famous silk shop in the capital. She was attracted by the voice and stood up to look at Qi Yuan who was riding in the front.
Under the fox fur cloak, the phoenix eyes on the small face as big as a palm kept following Qi Yuan's figure.
The boss knew what was going on when he saw her expression.
He took the initiative to introduce, "This girl is from the south, right? That gentleman is Lord Qi, the commander of the Imperial Guards."
"He is deeply trusted by His Majesty."
Just this one sentence, and that’s all.
You come from the south and are not a local. Do you think you can become a favorite in front of His Majesty?
What are you thinking?
Xiao Yuanshuang retracted her gaze, raised the corners of her mouth, and smiled, "Boss, the texture of this Yanyu Brocade is a bit similar to Fuguang Brocade, I want all of it."
"All? ...All?"
The boss looked surprised.
This swallow feather brocade costs twenty taels of silver per foot, and the fabric alone for a set of clothes is about two hundred taels.
This does not include the embroiderer’s wages.
A piece of cloth is about one hundred feet long. The piece of swallow feather brocade in his hand can be used to make several sets of clothes, at least a thousand taels of silver.
Even the wealthy families in the capital city only used such expensive materials during festivals and coming-of-age ceremonies.
The boss knew that people from the south were rich, but it was surprising that they were so rich.
What Xiao Yuanshuang wanted to see was the boss's inexperienced look.
She touched the pigeon egg-sized pearl hairpin on her head, and the maid immediately stepped forward, "Boss, don't worry, we can still afford this little money."
"Calculate the price."
"it is good."
You're a bastard who doesn't make money.
The boss happily cut the cloth and collected the money.
"By the way, boss, I really like this Angry Wind Lamp and want to buy one. Do you know where to buy it?"
Xiao Yuanshuang took the initiative to ask.
To be honest, she didn't have to do this kind of thing, she could just find a servant to do it. But as soon as she moved into Lingxi Palace, she found that all the people she brought with her were being monitored in a gentle manner.
This is just on the surface, there must be others in the dark.
It's inconvenient to ask others to do anything.
She simply went out to buy things by herself.
After all, he was not being monitored openly.
Even if that old guy Murong Anle wanted to know what he bought, he would have to take the time to come to the shop to investigate and ask, right?
It’s just a trivial matter, but she likes to make things difficult for others.
The boss chuckled with a bit of pride, "This is the Qisi Fengdeng. After the emperor invented it, he said it was used to benefit the people."
“All that is produced is put into road administration.”
"But the Ministry of Industry will regularly exhibit and sell some things. There will be one before the New Year. You can go and have a look. If you are quick, you should be able to grab some."
snort!
I am the princess of Yue State. If I want something, do I have to fight with others for it?
Really are!
Wait, it would be best if I could marry into the Kingdom of Qing this time, and climb up step by step with my own means. If I can't do it myself, I can support my own children.
After many years, this place will be yours sooner or later.
After Xiao Yuanshuang prepared herself mentally, she was no longer so angry.
He bowed and said goodbye with a smile.
