The Unruly Princess: Regent, please hug me

Chapter 687 Thought It Was Lemon Pepper

There is brown powder inside, those powders are extremely fine, they will be scattered in the air if shaken slightly, if Chi Mubai hadn't interrupted the bottom plate, Shen Qiqi would not have noticed the existence of these powders at all.

"These powders are definitely not good things." Chi Mubai wrapped his hands in paper, picked up a little powder, and looked solemn.

"Is it poison?" Shen Qiqi leaned over to take a look, she didn't think it was poison, it had no special smell, Chi Mubai wrapped the powder in paper, walked to a side alley, took out a hidden dumpling, broke it Open it in two and put it on the powder, Shen Qiqi didn't know why, but could only watch Chi Mubai's actions.

Seeing the dumpling hidden by Chi Mubai, she gave Chi Mubai a hard look, and Chi Mubai pulled Shen Qiqi to stand in the dark.After a while, a wild cat came meowing, licked the dumplings and swallowed them. The dumplings were covered with powder. If the powder was poisonous, the wild cat would die.Chi Mubai tied the wild cat with a rope, and the wild cat wanted to struggle to escape, but Chi Mubai didn't do anything to the wild cat, Shen Qiqi knew that he was waiting for the poison to happen.

After a while, the wild cat stood there well, but there was a strange phenomenon, it kept scratching various parts of its body with its front paws, and stretched out its tongue to lick at different places, meowing in its mouth, and then After a while, it simply lay down, rolled all over the ground, and kept barking.

"These are not poisons, they are powders that make the whole body itchy after eating. Is it the kind that ordinary people eat?" Shen Qiqi observed the wild cat's reaction, and suddenly realized, Chi Mubai took a look at Shen Qiqi, and let go of his hands The wild cat was not in a hurry to escape, but continued to roll and rub its body on the ground. Chi Mubai turned back to the carriage, took out the partition he had broken, lit the flint he carried with him, and carefully After looking at it, he handed the partition to Shen Qiqi.

Shen Qiqi's heart moved, and he raised the partition to the bright moonlight, the moonlight fell into Shen Qiqi's eyes through countless small holes, it turned out that the partition had a hidden meaning, as long as it was shaken a little and for a little longer, the powder would disintegrate Stick to the bottom of the dumplings through the small holes, and when they return to the palace, probably all the powder will stick to the bottom of the dumplings.

"What does he want to do?" Shen Qiqi put down the partition, not knowing what it meant.

"When you eat the dumplings and your whole body is itchy, Xu Shen will come forward and blame the emperor. The itching problem that cannot be solved by the people has spread to the palace. Even Liu Qianxing's daughter can't solve it, and then you can use lemon pepper to solve it. If you speak for him, he will become a great benefactor to the people, and his reputation will be greatly improved by then, even better than the emperor, and the emperor will probably be useless."

"Why don't you just put it in the dumplings?" Shen Qiqi still hadn't completely resolved her doubts. According to what was said in TV dramas and novels, shouldn't such harmful things be put in the gifts?

"You are Liu Qianxing's daughter, and you are also very sensitive to drugs. If you find out, it will be very troublesome. Isn't this a good way? There are no traces to trace. Even if there are leftover dumplings, you can find them inside." If there is no powder, he would not have thought that we ate all the dumplings on the way back, nor would he have thought that I found that the food box was a little taller than ordinary food boxes, so I thought there was a sandwich inside."

Chi Mubai explained patiently, and quickly thought: "Maybe he is worried that you have arrived at the medicine storehouse, no matter whether you have discovered his secret or not, just to be on the safe side, he still wants to do something to you, but he miscalculated this time Yes, there are powders left, I was worried that I couldn’t find those powders, but he delivered them to my door, I want to see what it is.”

After Chi Mubai explained to Shen Qiqi, he wanted Shen Qiqi to go back to Lange immediately, and he left with the medicine powder.

Back at Lange, the lights were brightly lit, Yue Ling accompanied Qing Yuan and was waiting for Shen Qiqi to come back, his face was solemn, Qing Yuan's hand was twisting a handkerchief, the silk handkerchief had countless creases, I don't know what Qing Yuan How many times does it take a handkerchief to get so many creases.

"Auntie, what's the matter?" Shen Qiqi went up to meet her, and Qing Yuan immediately held Shen Qiqi's hand.

"Princess, you are back. The Empress Dowager originally wanted to wait for you to come back, but I saw that it was too late, so I didn't let her wait any longer. I'll wait for you to come back and want you to tell me something." Qing Yuan said to Shen Qiqi Smiling, Shen Qiqi turned to look at Yueling, Yueming also had a smile on his face, Shen Qiqi felt a little calm.

"What's in the diet you ordered for the empress dowager? How come there are lemon peppers?" Qing Yuan smiled at Shen Qiqi cordially, and she brought out the leftovers from the empress dowager's meal, and showed it to Shen Qiqi. Before Qi Qi left, according to the Empress Dowager's physical condition, she asked Yue Ling to make some special food for the Empress Dowager, Shen Qiqi did not add lemon pepper to the food.Now even the stock of lemon peppers in the palace is pitifully small, why would Qingyuan say that there are lemon peppers in it?
"Really, princess, try it, I'm just worried about making a mistake, so there's only a little left, you take a bite." Qing Yuan picked up a little with chopsticks and put it into Shen Qiqi's mouth. When Yuan's chopsticks left her mouth, there was a slight spicy feeling in her mouth, and after the tip of her tongue got used to it, it became hot and sour. The hot and sour spread in her mouth little by little, it was so sour.

Yue Ling saw that Shen Qiqi was not used to this food, so she quickly poured a glass of water for Shen Qiqi.

"Wait, aunt, I didn't ask Yue Ling to make lemon pepper for grandma, this is..." Shen Qiqi took Yue Ling's water, drank it all in one gulp, asked Yue Ling to give me another glass of water, and drank it all Only then did I continue to finish the sentence, "This is a ball made of garlic that I let Yueling soak in sour vinegar overnight, plus spicy ginger and chopped apples, not lemon pepper."

"Isn't it lemon pepper? Why do they taste so similar? The empress dowager and I both thought it was lemon pepper after eating it, especially the empress dowager. After eating lemon pepper for a lifetime, now because of the shortage of lemon pepper, I ate a lot less lemon pepper. I ate this today." One dish, the empress ate two bowls of rice, she hasn't eaten so much for a long time, I thought you found the lemon pepper, so I have been waiting for you to come back."

"I didn't expect the taste to be so similar. I just thought that the garlic soaked in vinegar would have the effect of softening blood vessels, and adding chili would also have the effect of appetizing..." Shen Qiqi unconsciously used a modern term, Qing Yuan and Yue Ling looked at Shen Qiqi with surprised eyes, and Shen Qiqi quickly changed his words.

"Anyway, it's just an appetizer for grandma. I didn't expect it to be so similar to lemon pepper, but the function should not be as good as lemon pepper, especially since you have been all lemon pepper for a long time. This dish, it shouldn't be possible..."

While speaking, Shen Qiqi recalled the medical books she had read in her mind before, the effect of lemon pepper is better than that of ginger and garlic, and the same weight of lemon pepper has five times more allicin than garlic, but her mind suddenly flashed another a thought.
