delicious little cook

Chapter 796
"Fight?" Gu Yun didn't have time to answer, Gong Zhangji opened the curtain and walked in, just in time to pick up the conversation.

"My lord, is the princess better now?" Bai Kou asked with concern.

"Well, it's much better. She panicked because she was in a hurry, and she'll be fine when she calms down. Since Tong Mingli can write such a letter, it means that she already knows the plan of the Liang family. Then why should we panic? It’s a trap for them to kill themselves.”

"The old couple of the Liang family are already civilians, so there is nothing to be afraid of. The main thing is that Princess Yu, who only has eyes for her brother who is about to die, once again threw King Yu's face into the stinky ditch. The Queen must also want to take this opportunity. Play a play to let the people all over the world know that King Yu's eyes can't be controlled. He connives at his wife and poisons his sister-in-law, hurts the face of the Tian family and the clan, and lowers his reputation as a prince so that he won't always be compared with the prince. Compared to the past, and the reason is sufficient, even Concubine Zhao Xian can't save any situation." Gu Yun rubbed his fingers and said slowly.

"Well, this is what the empress wants to do, so what were you two talking about earlier? I heard the word fighting."

"Princess Yu put her husband's face aside in order to fulfill her younger brother's last wish, but King Yu is also the younger brother of the Eldest Princess, how could she allow her brother's reputation to decline again? I have already been implicated last time, how could the Eldest Princess Would you like to see it happen again?" Gu Yun said with a half-smile.

Gong Zhangji suddenly realized, clapped his hands and smiled.

"So that's it. This is indeed a good show, and it's worth looking forward to."

"Tong Mingli is protected by the queen, so don't worry about it. At the same time, we don't say anything to Shi Tianmin. Tong Mingli's letter was written to your wife. We have the right to pretend that we don't know."

"Okay, let's see them lose face in front of the people of the world."

The three discussed for a while, and Gu Yun took Bai Kou to say goodbye and go home.

These outsiders have no way of knowing how Queen Ye arranged the layout, whether the saint knew about it, and Gu Yun and the others can only wait patiently for the news of the Liang residence.

In less than two days, news came that Liang Zhongshan had died.

Shi Tianmin asked his wife for a day off to go to Liang's house to express his condolences. When he came back, he asked Gu Yun to have a drink. There was a proud expression on the wine table, implying that he had done a good job and got the benefits from his uncle. His aunt's objection was invalid. Brother's business will be smoother, and no one will come to make trouble behind the scenes.

Gu Yun immediately made a toast to him with a smile, congratulating him repeatedly, but he didn't ask what benefit he got, he already knew it by heart.

The two had a hearty meal, hiccupped and said goodbye and returned home, bathed and changed clothes under Bai Kou's disgusted expression, and then asked her to wait for him to read a book by the bed, and naturally left him behind after late at night On duty at night, Gu Yun snickered, wrapped the person in his arms with hands and feet, and chatted softly about Liang Zhongshan's funeral. If he wanted to use **** to Tong Mingli, he should do it now.

The Liang family did take action. They thought Tong Mingli didn't know about it. The food was eaten at the same table and it was not easy to prescribe medicine, but the tea was drunk separately, so they just mixed the poison into Tong Mingli's teapot, and when she went back to the room for a while, it was difficult to prescribe medicine. Drink it when you are resting.

In fact, in the middle of the night when Princess Yu handed over the snuff bottle containing the powder to her parents, the two old maids found it out, took it out to draw a pattern for the backup staff, and found an identical one, filled it with flour , and then the two old maids will replace the real poison.

Because it takes time to find the same snuff bottle, Tong Mingli and the others have been on guard for several days, eating three meals a day at the same table with her parents-in-law, so that it is difficult for the servants of the Liang family to put medicine in the food, so they can only give her. The tea was poisoned, and as soon as the teapot was brought into Tong Mingli's room, the girl who stayed behind would throw it away and replace it with another clean tea.

The family is busy with funerals, so where will the Liang family go to check if there is one more tea stove or one missing? Tong Mingli is protected by everyone, and she is not afraid of drinking poisonous tea at all, and there is nothing to worry about after the poison is replaced. , but the tea brought into the room is still poured out.

Because the fake poison is flour, although the dose of poison is only a little at a time, but for those who know, who wants to drink tea with flour.

The Liang family thought about the poisoning, and they were afraid that Tong Mingli would be poisoned in her own home if she was suspended for too long. Died in front of her natal family.

The old palace lady surreptitiously changed the post, and the real poison that was exchanged was sent to the Imperial Hospital for secret testing to see if it was a known poison or someone had prepared it without permission, and then to see if an antidote could be formulated.

According to Queen Ye's idea, if there is an antidote, let Tong Mingli play a bitter trick, if not, just pretend it didn't happen. After Liang Zhongshan was buried, Tong Mingli returned to choose someone to remarry. Everything will go according to the established plan, just wait a little longer In time, when Princess Yu sees that there is no movement in the Tong family, she will show her feet and deal with them at that time.

Bai Kou was not idle either. Four or five days after Liang Zhongshan's death, the palace formally placed an order, and arranged for skilled craftsmen to make ten more of the same with high-quality wood according to the style of Princess Jingyun's hidden dressing table. , ten large mirrors of the same size are needed, and the price for buying the mirrors is paid in one lump sum. The workers spent several days cutting out a perfect product that fits the size without any flaws, and plated it with silver three times. Carefully send it to the designated place to sign for receipt, and successfully complete this single business.

For the matter of sending mirrors all over the capital, Bai Kou finally didn't want to endure the bumps of the two-wheeled scooter anymore, and still wanted a new car with four-wheel steering, so she went to Lao Sha again and formally hired him as a blacksmith in the workshop. All his belongings were moved into the workshop, and he was appointed as a first-class technician, which was higher than apprentices and first-, second- and third-class technicians. Those at the same level as him were all old craftsmen in their forties, and Lao Sha was comparable to them. young.

Bai Kou knew that he understood the structure of the steering device of the four-wheeled carriage, which was originally a blacksmith's job, so he let him take charge of this problem, making a more stable carriage to transport the fragile large glass.

The factory actually hired a foreigner as a technician, and the entire residents of Xilefang were shocked. There were many people in the factory who disobeyed him. Bai Kou showed them the finished and semi-finished things made by Lao Sha, They were all speechless, especially the kitchen timer. The seven or eight stocks that Lao Sha had calibrated were sent to the kitchen for the cooks. In the future, there is no need to light incense when cooking timers. .

Lao Sha is indeed the metalworking talent that the workshop urgently needs. Bai Kou said that if he wants a four-wheeled carriage with steering, he can make a model that is vivid and all parts can move in a few days. No matter who he shows it to, he agrees The drivers of the big car dealership in the district also said that if they had samples, they would test drive them.

Based on this model, Bai Kou persuaded Gu Yun to pay for a new carriage, and Wei Qian asked for this model afterward, saying that the city defense battalion had taken a fancy to it, and built a few new carriages to pull the cannons, and promised not to destroy the carriages under the carriages. The structure was passed on to the outside world, and Gu Yun was given credit.
