How should I put it? It smells a bit fragrant, like braised meat.

But when I smelled it again, I felt a little disgusted. After all, so much brown sugar was mixed in, and the pot also smelled like lard.

And the color, burnt brown with some red dried chili shreds mixed in, doesn't look tasty at all.

As time went by, the smell became stronger and stronger, and everyone in the imperial kitchen sweated more and more.

When Your Majesty eats such disgusting food, will they be beheaded?

Wuwuwu——

Finally, Murong Yue sniffed and felt that the taste was almost the same. Although it was quite different from what she remembered, it was still somewhat similar.

"Okay, pour it out."

When the royal family eats, they not only pay attention to the color, aroma and taste, but also the containers.

There are rules for what flavor and shape of dishes to pair with what kind of bowls and plates.

Everyone looked at Manager Zhu, asking with their eyes.

Which soup bowl?

Manager Zhu: Let me think about it.

Wuwuwu——

The head is moving!

He racked his brain, and even went through all the bowls and dishes in the imperial kitchen storeroom in his mind, but he couldn't think of a soup bowl that could match this flavor.

Well...

After hesitating, he ordered someone to bring a ladder, went up himself, and took down a blue-flowered celadon and white-glazed soup basin from the highest shelf.

The soup bowl is a light aqua blue.

Just standing there, the light blue looks like a lake.

This color is very rare and was presented as a tribute by a kiln called Zeng’s Porcelain.

Because of its strong shrinkage ability, it has never been used.

He felt that the basin matched the taste very well.

So I turned the basin over.

"Your Majesty, do you think this is okay?" Fortune and wealth are sought through risk! Manager Zhu took the risk!

"Yes, Not Bad."

Murong Yue nodded.

Such a blue color, in my memory it seems like the color of a lake that has not been polluted by zombies.

it's beautiful.

Manager Zhu poured the strange soup into a basin and divided it into three small bowls.

One small bowl for himself, one small bowl for testing poison for people around His Majesty, and another small bowl to be stored.

Only after you are sure that nothing has happened can you deal with it.

Seeing his action, Murong Yue's eyes lit up.

There are people who know what's good in this field and actually know about this magical Chinese medicine.

In fact, when she first woke up at this base, her teacher also tried to feed her this thing.

Unfortunately, my memory had not awakened at that time, so I didn’t eat.

If it had eaten it, it would have learned human writing long ago.

Ugh.

Under Murong Yue's expectant gaze, Manager Zhu held his breath and picked up the small bowl, but holding his breath was not something he was good at.

That unique smell still rushed to the top of his head.

Heaven!

His eyes went dark and he felt like he was seeing his own milk.

But His Majesty is still watching.

Manager Zhu could only take a deep breath, ready to die, and do the job in one breath.

You can tell from his expression, his face has turned green and his facial features are distorted, that he doesn't taste good.

Ah Hao originally wanted to see what His Majesty could do.

Now she didn't want to try.

There are many people who are willing to test poison for Your Majesty.

Thus, there was another person with messy facial features in the imperial kitchen.

Ah Hao stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, it's not poisonous, you can rest assured."

"Yeah, bring it."

Murong Yue was also very satisfied.

He asked someone to bring the traditional Chinese medicine that he had perfectly reproduced from memory to visit the second prince and the third princess.

Your Majesty has just left.

Manager Zhu could no longer bear it, and staggered to the back of the imperial kitchen, holding onto the trash can and began to dry heave.

While vomiting, he said, "I... ugh... I had a stomachache last night... ugh..."

"Your Majesty made... ugh... it's delicious."

The imperial kitchen was in chaos. Some people were busy cleaning up the mess. Someone saw Butler Zhu vomiting and, stimulated by the smell that had not yet dissipated, vomited as well.

Vomit a lot.

"Don't bother... go find the imperial physician..."

Wuwuwu——

If this gets out, what will happen if he eats something made under the instructions of Your Majesty and then goes to see the imperial physician?

Murong Yue and his group were not in a much better situation.

Fortunately, we were outdoors, and the smell was dissipated by the cold wind, so I didn't have to vomit.

The second person who had just tried the medicine, relied on his strong willpower to not vomit it out.

Since the second prince and the third princess were both in this state, the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau, Doctor Liu, could not rest at home, so he came to the Imperial Medical Bureau to be on duty for the past two days.

When I heard that His Majesty was coming, I hurried out to greet him.

"Your Majesty, may you be well—"

"Doctor Liu, His Majesty is here to visit the second prince and the third princess," Ah Hao stepped forward.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this way."

Doctor Liu stood up and led the way, sniffing hard at the same time.

What is the taste?

Uh... Your Majesty, are you here with poison, to kill those two people from Yue State?

But that’s not the case.

And the smell doesn't seem very authentic.

Doctor Liu looked at Ah Hao, trying to find some clues, but unfortunately, Ah Hao looked straight ahead, his lips tightly pursed, and he said nothing.

His Majesty has arrived——

The announcement was made in the ward area behind the Imperial Hospital.

Xiao Yuanche was stunned at first, then nervously tried to find something to cover himself.

Xiao Yuanshuang's eyes in the next room suddenly became sharp, and he used both hands to almost tear the quilt under his hands.

"What is she doing here? She usually asks to see him but is refused. Now she comes here out of nowhere."

"Want to see my joke?"

Cherry, who had hurried back from outside, quickly tidied her clothes and said, "Princess, I have heard that the royal family of Qing has a magical medicine."

“It’s especially effective for burns and scalds.”

"I have already told the Ministry of Rites that they want this medicine."

"Just now I saw someone in the Empress's team holding a medicine bowl."

"I think the Empress came to visit in person and brought some medicine."

"Humph, since this Highness has suffered so much, she should come and see it. Otherwise, how can we claim to be a country of etiquette?"

Xiao Yuanshuang took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart.

Cherry got news from the leaders of the Yue State delegation and found out that those people were indeed selfish.

He actually wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make Qing Kingdom compensate Yue Kingdom. There were two ways of compensation: one was one million taels of silver, and the other was to make Xiao Yuanche the prime minister.

What a good calculation.

Whether it is money or position, it has nothing to do with me.

Then who do you think you are?

Also, Xiao Yuanche now wants to kill me and take the blame, how can I just sit there and wait to die?

Xiao Yuanshuang was determined that since it was a rare opportunity for her to meet Murong Yue, she would destroy Xiao Yuanche's dream of becoming the Queen of Qing Kingdom no matter what.

A strange smell came in with Murong Yue.

Xiao Yuanshuang sat on the bed, motionless, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I have injured my foot and cannot perform the ceremony."

"Ah."

You can kowtow to me if you want, but I don’t like your brain anyway.

Murong Yue said indifferently.

"Here's my medicine."

Hearing this, Xiao Yuanshuang was delighted.

I think her medicine is the kind of miracle medicine that Cherry mentioned.

And she was certain that Murong Yue would not poison someone so openly, so it must be that medicine.

Ha ha.

So what if she is the empress? She still brought her medicine and came to see me eagerly.

Medicine, you can’t escape.

Business matters.
