Chef Mad Queen

Chapter 172

The atmosphere of the chess club is hot, and the palace is also very lively.

Without him!Just because of the king's impromptu intention, today's court meeting was changed to a chess viewing meeting!

In the very center of the main hall, a huge chessboard was erected, and all civil and military officials were present to watch the chess. The little prince and his friends also took a seat, eagerly waiting for the chessboard to start.

Several ministers surrounded Feng Cang, whispering.

"Prime Minister Feng, do you know why Your Majesty attaches so much importance to today's chess match?"

"I heard that Sikong Shengjie challenged six nine-dan chess players from the Northern Yan Kingdom yesterday, but I didn't see the king pay so much attention to it. Why did the king pay so much attention to Sikong Shengjie playing chess with a woman today?"

"I also heard that the woman is a court lady..."

"Could it be that the king has taken a fancy to this maid?"

Hearing this, Feng Cang scolded in a cold voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? How could the king have a crush on a mere court lady?"

The minister quickly echoed: "What Feng Xiang said is true! The king has just favored the queen, and the queen's family is in prosperity. How can the king care about a mere maid?"

"That's not necessarily the case!" A minister in the adjacent seat suddenly said, "There are many talents in the harem, but the queen is not the only one!"

Feng Cang turned his head to look and saw that it was Li Rongde, Minister of the Ministry of Punishments. His face suddenly sank, and he snorted coldly, "What Master Li said is that the harem is indeed full of talents, capable people come forth in large numbers! In terms of tricks to torture servants, within the harem, No one can be around Qi beauty!"

Hearing him ridicule his daughter like this, Li Rongde's face turned black on the spot, and he glared angrily: "Feng Cang! You don't have evidence, don't slander my daughter!"

Feng Cang laughed loudly: "This matter is already an open secret in the harem, what evidence is needed? But you, as the minister of the Ministry of Punishments, are in charge of the country's justice and prisons, but you allow your daughter to know the law and break the law, Mr. Li, should you Self-examination?"

"You..." Li Rongde blushed angrily.

In the main hall, Xuanyuanche was sitting on the dragon chair, holding a golden cup in his hand, and lightly swept towards the two of them: "President Feng and Li Shangshu, why are you arguing?"

Feng Cang got up calmly, bowed and said: "Report to the king, this minister just played a joke with Master Li."

Xuanyuanche swept his cold eyes lightly: "Li Shangshu, is that right?"

Li Rongde got up, suppressed the anger in his heart, bowed and said: "Yes, Prime Minister Feng just made a joke with this humble minister."

The dim light in his eyes dimmed, and the corners of Xuanyuanche's lips curled up, showing a half-smile: "Today's chess game is related to the glory of our Beiyan chess world, I hope you all come to watch chess together, and cheer for our Beiyan country! "

All the ministers got up and bowed in unison: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

The little prince rested his chin on his hands, stretched his neck, looked outside the hall for a long time, and asked in a sweet voice, "Father, why hasn't the chess game started yet?"

Xuanyuan Che held the golden cup, took a sip leisurely, the fruit wine entered his stomach, refreshing his heart, he said calmly: "When the time comes, it will naturally begin."

Yilan Palace.

Qi Meiren came to visit Princess Lanxin, and the laughter came before she arrived.

"Sister, have you heard? The queen is unlucky today! Hehehehe..."

Princess Lan Xin was writing a letter in front of the desk, when she heard a voice outside the door, she hurriedly paused and put the letter away.

The next moment, Qi Meiren walked into the bedroom.

"Sister, what are you busy with?"

Princess Lan Xin sat upright, and sighed regretfully: "I have been grounded by the queen mother, what else can I do? I just practice calligraphy to pass the time! My sister just said that the queen is unlucky at home, what is going on? ?”

Qimei didn't know what she thought of, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and laughed: "I'm so ridiculous! Sister, you don't know, this morning the queen went to the imperial dining room to cook, but for some reason, she fell a dog and ate shit. , The sauce of braised pork is all over his face, and his waist is flashing! Do you think it's ridiculous?"

Princess Lan Xin was in a good mood when she heard the words, and she also laughed: "Hahaha... She deserves it! It's a pity that I didn't see it with my own eyes!"

"Who said no? I missed a good show for nothing!" Qi Meiren said again, "I heard that the queen was hit on the head by two sparrows later, and there was a one in ten thousand chance for her to meet her. What do you say Is she unlucky?"

Princess Lan Xin laughed happily: "There is such a thing? Then she is really unlucky!"

Qimei went on to say: "According to me, she just doesn't have the life to serve the bed. If she goes to bed, the retribution will come."

Hearing the word "servant", Princess Lan Xin's good mood was swept away, and she lowered her face: "Just wait! After tomorrow, if she still can't find the three-tailed civet, she will have to leave the palace. She is arrogant. It won't be long."

Qi Meiren nodded, and suddenly changed the subject: "Sister, do you know the chess game played by Tianyuan Chess Club today?"

Princess Lan Xin: "I've heard something about it, what's the matter?"

Qi Meiren: "My sister is just surprised. The king seems to attach great importance to this chess game. I heard that today's court meeting has also been changed to a chess viewing meeting. Now the king is leading the civil and military ministers to watch the chess game."

Princess Lan Xin was slightly surprised: "Oh? There is such a thing?"

Qi Meiren nodded: "It's absolutely true!"

Princess Lan Xin murmured: "Probably because this chess game is related to the prestige of the Beiyan chess world, so the king attaches so much importance to it? After all, a genius like my third brother cannot be easily defeated!"

Qimei shook her head: "But why do I hear people in the palace say that the king is more interested in the chess player? And there is only one letter difference between her name and the queen's name. It's called Fengqian!"

"You mean, the name of the person who played chess with my third brother is Feng Qian?" Princess Lan Xin frowned, feeling a bad premonition inexplicably.

Qi Meiren nodded: "Yes, it's called Fengqian, the wind of wind and rain, and the depth and shallowness!"

Princess Lan Xin fell into deep thought.

At this time, Nanny Zhou came in from the door and winked at Princess Lanxin: "Princess, you are not feeling well, so don't be too tired."

Princess Lan Xin understood, and stroked her forehead: "Sister, I'm really sorry, I feel a little unwell today, so I can't talk with you..."

Qi Meiren is also a smart person, and when she heard that the other party was chasing guests, she immediately got up and said: "Then sister, rest well, and my sister will leave first."

After Qimei left, Princess Lan Xin put her hand down from her forehead, her expression straightened, and she said seriously, "What's the matter?"

Nanny Zhou bowed and said, "His Royal Highness's people are here!"

Princess Lan Xin's eyes lit up: "Quickly pass him in."

Not long after, Nanny Zhou led a black-robed man in, and the black-robed man stepped forward and reported: "My subordinates pay homage to Your Highness the Princess!"

Princess Lan Xin asked urgently: "Brother Wang asked you to come, is there something important?"

The man in black robe: "His Royal Highness wants your help to investigate a person."

"Who?" Princess Lanxin asked.

The man in black robe: "This person's name is Feng Qian, and it is said that he is a court lady!"

"Feng Qian? Why is it her again?" Princess Lan Xin's heart tightened, and the uneasiness became stronger.
