Daiyu of Space Marries

Chapter 92 Banquet (2)
When Jia Min brought Daiyu and Lin Jin to the main hall, some family members of officials were already sitting inside.She was led by the little maid to sit down at her own seat, and some fruit plate snacks were already placed on it.Jia Min and Daiyu followed the principle of keeping a low profile and waited boredly.Waiting for the feast to start, waiting for the palace change to happen.

Daiyu first visually measured the distance from her place to Princess Yong, it wasn't too far, but it wasn't close either.Officials and their family members sat separately. The emperor had a banquet in the Hall of Supreme Harmony for his ministers and their sons who were over seven years old.

As usual, the high-ranking concubines and princesses in the emperor's harem sit closest to the phoenix seat, followed by the concubines and concubines of the royal family. Princess Yong is in this area, but she is still relatively high, because she is the emperor after all. The son's princess, second only to the crown princess.Next are the first-rank, second-rank, and third-rank wives in the lower row.

After waiting for a short time, a roll call came from outside: "The empress is here!"

The crowd knelt to greet them, "The empress is a thousand years old!" Echoing this, the people in the Hall of Supreme Harmony not far away shouted long live, and when the empress walked past the crowd, she sat firmly on the phoenix seat, " Ladies and gentlemen, leave your body without courtesy!" Then there was a rustling sound of cloth rubbing against each other.

When everyone returned to their seats, the empress delivered a New Year's greeting as usual, and ordered the banquet to begin.The next step is to serve the dishes neatly and orderly by the court ladies, but without exception, they are all big fish and meat, and in the cold winter, such hot dishes are already prepared, and wait until they are served. It was already a little cold when it came out, and even some dishes were covered with a layer of white oily flowers, which made them lose their appetite.Everyone watched the empress first pick up the first chopsticks, and then moved their chopsticks one after another, but they only took two or three bites, just for show.

It was only when Daiyu picked out the only steaming fish soup and filled it into a bowl, just as she raised the spoon to her mouth, she realized something was wrong, the soup had been drugged!Daiyu is originally a body of vegetation, and she is also very sensitive to the smell of some plants. Besides, as the adopted daughter of the head of the Tang Sect, how can she not understand some poisons?What is added here is not any poison, but some sweating medicine.Presumably, the person who wants to attack is thinking that they will be drugged first, and if they have no ability to resist, they can only be slaughtered?
When Daiyu thought of this, she thought that the women's family would be easy to deal with, but she didn't know what was going on with the Hall of Supreme Harmony.But now she has nothing to do.She can't take care of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, but if all the female relatives here are overwhelmed by medicine, they will be slaughtered by others. She and Jia Min can't take care of so many!But if you want to stop it, you will have to startle the snake.Daiyu felt troubled, and looked up at Jia Min.

Jia Min didn't notice anything unusual, took a mouthful of vegetables and was about to put them into his mouth, when he saw Daiyu's eyes, he immediately guessed that something was wrong, and he stopped eating the vegetables that were near his mouth.Sending a questioning look, Daiyu glanced vaguely at the soup bowl in front of her.Jia Min understood immediately.I also hesitated for a while whether to stop it, but I just looked up, most of the female family members chose the still hot fish soup, many of them have already drank it, but some have not yet been eaten.Turning around, he saw that Lin Jin, who was sitting on the other side of him, had just asked the maid beside him to serve a bowl of thick white fish soup.

Jia Min acted decisively, and pretended to push Lin Jin carelessly. Lin Jin was holding a spoon in one hand and was about to put a mouthful of fish soup into his mouth, but was spilled by Jia Min's sudden push. Lin Jin was dumbfounded. He looked at Jia Min, not knowing what was going on.

But Jia Min stood up and apologized to the empress: "Empress, forgive me! The child is naughty and accidentally spilled fish soup. I think this fish soup is too 'delicious', and I even want to try this dress " When he said the word delicious, he emphasized his tone, and even glanced at the fish soup on the table without any trace.

Concubine Yong understood immediately.Originally, before entering the palace today, Mo Jingtian had given her thousands of exhortations, saying that she must pay attention to the actions of the Lin family members, and it was best to keep everything in sync with the Lin family.There was faint concern about the palace banquet tonight in his tone.

The princess had a premonition that something might happen that night.Thinking of the recent rumors that the prince has become more and more violent, the princess has some truth.Do you think the Lin family knew about it?

Seeing Jia Min's actions and tone now, the princess immediately guessed that there might be something wrong with the fish soup, and immediately put down the spoon that was about to be brought to her mouth.Looking at the small bowl of fish soup just in front of the empress, she persuaded meaningfully: "I heard that my mother has a cough recently and is drinking licorice tea. This fish soup is somewhat incompatible with licorice, so it's better to use it sparingly."

The queen didn't realize it at first, when did she use licorice tea?She hates licorice the most, the princess's family also knows it?Did you forget?The Empress raised her head to meet Princess Shangyong's eyes, and immediately understood the deep meaning in Princess Wang's eyes.Put the soup bowl aside, and don't forget your daughter.

"Qinghe also don't drink that fish soup, you hate coriander the most, Ben Gong just saw a few stalks of coriander floating in the fish soup." At this moment, his mind turned so quickly that he realized something was wrong, and he didn't move the soup bowl any more , Some are still drinking with relish from the soup bowl.

They didn't wink, but the queen and the others couldn't speak more clearly, and they were afraid of scaring the snake.

Jia Min and Daiyu exchanged glances and divided the work.According to the previous discussion, Jia Min's cultivation base is low, and he only needs to protect himself and Lin Jin, but Daiyu must always pay attention to Princess Yong and the Queen, as well as Princess Beijing and Princess Qingyi. As the palace of the opposite sex, they are not in much danger.

Jia Min thought for a while and decided to let Daiyu stay directly beside the princess.Thinking of this, Jia Min pleaded to the queen: "My son is naughty, I'm afraid I have to change clothes. Can I ask Princess Yong to take care of the little girl for a while?" When Jia Min said this, he gave the princess a worried look, and then He glanced at Daiyu.

The concubine understood Jia Min's meaning very accurately, thinking that Jia Min entrusted Daiyu to her future mother-in-law because she was afraid that she would not be able to take care of her two children in the future.She liked Daiyu already, so she readily agreed.

In this way, Daiyu got close to Princess Yong and the Queen so smoothly, so as not to be rescued in time due to unexpected accidents.

In this way, Jia Min felt relieved and pulled Lin Jin closer to him.

The people in the hall also stopped eating, just chatting with each other, and even skipped the toasts in previous years. They seemed to be having a good time, but this was just an illusion.In fact, many people are tense in their hearts, forced to smile, and waited for the accident to happen with anticipation and resistance.

After about half an hour, some noble ladies who drank the fish soup began to fall down one after another. The hearts of the onlookers became more and more tense, and unknown fear shrouded the entire hall.Everyone was in no mood to chat and laugh, and the hall became more and more quiet, until in the end only the rapid and tense breathing of the crowd could be heard.The entire hall was suddenly quiet and the sound of needles falling could be heard.
