Daughter's Poisoned Wife

Chapter 213: Have Dinner Together (2)
"How do you put two bowls?" Du Heng asked with a frown. Obviously, she married into the palace yesterday, but she has not really entered the status of the third young lady of Prince Ning's palace until now.

"Of course it's two sets. Our husband and wife are having dinner together." Xiao Ze said with a smile as he walked in.

Du Heng frowned, and said in a displeased cold voice: "It's very good like noon. Why bother?"

At lunch time, Du Heng ate by himself. As for where Xiao Ze ate and what he ate, Du Heng didn't ask at all. She was secretly relieved, thinking that the rule in the palace is that everyone eats in their own rooms.Unexpectedly, at dinner time, Xiao Ze actually found him.

Xiao Ze smiled and said: "Ah Heng, you don't know, the men in the mansion usually eat in the outer courtyard at noon, and they come back to eat with their daughter-in-law in the morning and evening. My father and king are like this. They eat breakfast and dinner with their mothers. Yes, sometimes at noon father and king also come in to accompany mother to have lunch before going out."

"Really?" Du Heng couldn't believe it. Prince Ning is now the right-hand man. How can he go back to the palace so much to eat with the concubine?

Xiao Ze saw that there seemed to be disbelief in Du Heng's eyes, so he smiled and said: "You will know later, Ah Heng, I will never lie to you."

Xiao Ze sat down at the table while talking, stretched out his hand to pick up the silver chopsticks and said with a smile: "I haven't sat and had dinner with people like this in ten years, Ah Heng, thanks to you I can live a normal life .”

Hearing these words, Du Heng felt sad for no reason, and he gave up his original idea of ​​driving Xiao Ze away. He just sat down opposite Xiao Ze, and the maids hurried up to serve the two masters.

Over the years, Xiao Ze has only been served by buttons. He is no longer used to having a few maidservants standing beside him, so he waved his hands and said: "You all step back first, the master and your young lady have finished eating and then come to serve."

"This..." Nanny Li and the others hesitated, it was obviously against the rules.

But Du Heng also nodded and said: "You all go back first." She also felt that it was very awkward to have dinner with Xiao Ze, a man who was unfamiliar or familiar but not familiar with him in front of Nanny Li and others. .

Nanny Li and others retreated, Xiao Ze immediately moved to sit next to Du Heng, Du Heng quickly moved two seats, stared at Xiao Ze and said angrily: "You are not allowed to come..."

Xiao Ze chuckled, pointed to the dishes on the table and said, "Ah Heng, I have checked all these and they are not poisonous, let's eat them quickly."

Du Heng glanced at Xiao Ze sideways, and said calmly: "Unexpectedly, the third master still has the ability to detect poison, why didn't you try out the poisonous wine yesterday?"

Xiao Ze blushed, and quickly explained: "Isn't my heart all about you?"

Du Heng reprimanded: "Don't talk nonsense, if you keep talking nonsense, just eat alone."

Xiao Ze quickly smiled and said: "Okay, I won't talk anymore, eat quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the tofu in the mirror box.

Du Heng looked at the delicious dishes on this table. The more she looked, the tighter her frown became. After Xiao Ze finished eating the tofu in the mirror box, he used a spoon to scoop up sweet-scented osmanthus soup. Du Heng immediately shouted: "Don't drink it!"

Xiao Ze was taken aback by Du Heng, and the spoon in his hand fell into the sweet-scented osmanthus soup. "Aheng, what's wrong?"

Du Heng looked at the table full of dishes and said in a cold voice: "Can't you see that all the good dishes on this table are specially prepared?"

Xiao Ze shook his head honestly and said, "I don't see it, these are very common home-cooked dishes, and they haven't been poisoned."

Du Heng said coldly: "How can poison be used in these dishes? Eating tofu and honey together will cause deafness in both ears, wind goose and white pear will hurt the kidneys, mutton stuffed with snails will make people's abdomen swell, and these, shallots Meeting honey hurts your eyes, Mr. Xiao, if you think your life will be long, just eat it."

"Ah...it actually happened like this, Ah Heng, thanks to having you here, otherwise I really wouldn't know how to die!" Xiao Ze was shocked into a cold sweat, he really didn't know about such dietary taboos.

In fact, Du Heng has not finished talking, the combination of the few dishes just now is poisonous, and there are also several dishes in the banquet that are specially designed to cause women's uterus cold and make women infertile.It seems that this table of dishes has "taken care" of both her and Xiao Ze, it's really thoughtful!It's just that Du Heng didn't want to point out those few dishes that made women's palaces cold.Anyway, she didn't plan to have anything to do with Xiao Ze, so why bother to tell him such things.

"Third Master, you can't eat the dishes on this table, and you can't reward the servants." Du Heng said in a deep voice.

Xiao Ze nodded again and again, "Aheng, what you said is very true. I will order Button to deal with it later, so that no one will find out."

Du Heng looked at Xiao Ze and said indifferently: "It seems that the third master's recovery has made some people very nervous, even using such a bad trick. I don't know how the third master plans to deal with it?"

Xiao Ze immediately said: "Each garden in the palace can set up its own small kitchen. Tomorrow, I will order someone to set up a small kitchen in Jiaotai Garden. You arrange reliable people to take care of it, and make it tighter, so that no one will be drilled." There is a loophole. The food in the big kitchen will never be eaten again.”

Du Heng said lightly: "Is that so?"

Xiao Ze said in a low voice: "Of course not, it's impolite to come and not to reciprocate. Since they sent such a generous gift here, wouldn't it be too rude if I didn't return the gift."

Du Heng snorted softly, and didn't ask any more questions.

Xiao Ze suddenly remembered Xiao Xi's distressed appearance in the Boxing Garden today, and suddenly said with a smile: "Actually, we have already returned the gift, Ah Heng, you don't know, the Boxing Garden is very lively today, and the imperial doctor couldn't let it go." My good second brother felt better, and I heard that after pricking his ten fingers and bleeding, he was relieved."

"Oh, did you prick your finger and bleed?" Du Heng immediately became interested when he heard this, saying that the medicinal powder she wiped on her sleeve during the day was prepared according to the records of the Poison Sutra, and she had never tried the power of this medicine.According to what Xiao Ze said, the effect of this medicine is really good.

"Of course it's true. I heard that ten bloody holes were pricked with a three-edged needle, and blood was bubbling out. Afterwards, it was bandaged with wound medicine to stop the bleeding."

Du Heng pursed his lips and smiled slightly, with a little pride on his small face. When Xiao Ze spoke, his eyes were fixed on Du Heng. When he saw Du Heng suddenly pursed his lips and smiled lightly, he became more and more sure of his conjecture. Not only did he There is no trace of unhappiness, but a special kind of joy and excitement in my heart.
