The Imperial Concubine Just Wants To Be a Salted Fish Every Day

When the ginseng soup was just scooped out of the casserole, it was piping hot.

In order not to burn the princess, the maid stirred the ginseng soup with a spoon, and fanned the ginseng soup with a fan to speed up the cooling of the ginseng soup.

When the heat of the ginseng soup subsided a little, and it was just in the mouth, the maid put down the spoon and fan, took the ginseng soup and left the kitchen.

Xiao Xixi held the spoon, slowly stirred the chicken soup, and continued to ask.

"Did you stir the ginseng soup like this?"

Maid: "The slave's hand needs to go down a little bit."

Xiao Xixi moved her finger down: "So?"

The maid nodded vigorously: "Well, that's it!"

In order to restore the scene at that time to the greatest extent, Xiao Xixi asked someone to bring a fan over.

She shook the fan while stirring the chicken soup.

When the temperature of the chicken soup dropped and became less hot, Xiao Xixi stopped stirring.

She put the spoon to the convenience, looked at the maid again, and asked.

"That's all you did at the time, nothing else?"

The maid shook her head subconsciously: "No more."

Everyone present did not feel that there was anything wrong with this series of actions.

Everything looks normal!

until……

The government doctor detected toxicity from the bowl of chicken soup.

Everyone present was shocked.

Luo Yechen asked, "Is it the same poison as in the ginseng soup?"

The doctor nodded and said yes.

The butler hurriedly explained.

"This chicken soup was stewed in the kitchen this morning to nourish the princess after she gave birth.

Due to the fact that the ginseng soup was poisoned, in order to prevent the same situation from happening again, I specially arranged two people to test dishes in the kitchen.

After all the food is out of the pot, you have to try it again.

The same goes for this bowl of chicken soup, there is no problem trying it! "

The government doctor also checked in front of everyone before, and this bowl of chicken soup was originally non-toxic.

So what the butler said is believable.

Luo Yechen asked impatiently.

"What exactly is going on?"

Luo Qinghan already understood in his heart that the problem lies in the spoon.

From the first inspection of the chicken soup to confirm that it is non-toxic, to the second inspection to be poisonous, Xixi only touched the bowl of chicken soup with a spoon.

as predicted.

Xiao Xixi shook the small and delicate ruby ​​spoon.

"Because this spoon is poisonous."

The mansion doctor hurriedly said: "But I checked it before, and there is no poison on the spoon."

Xiao Xixi: "Is there a silver needle?"

"Yes." The doctor opened the medicine box he carried, took out the needle bag, and took out a slender silver needle.

Xiao Xixi took the silver needle.

She turned the spoon over and found a small hole at the bottom of the spoon near the surface of the spoon.

The hole is so small that it is almost invisible to the naked eye.

It wasn't until she put the silver needle through the hole that everyone noticed its existence.

When Xixi pulled out the silver needle again, she found that the front section of the silver needle had turned black.

The government doctor whispered: "It's really poisonous!"

Luo Yechen grabbed the spoon and looked closely in front of him.

Xiao Xixi: "The inside of the spoon handle is hollow, and someone has hidden the poison inside. I guess that poison should solidify at room temperature, and it will melt when it is heated. As soon as it melts, the poison will pass through. That hole flows into the soup."

Due to the complex texture engraved on the surface of the spoon handle, people have a sensory dislocation, and mistakenly think that the poison is the texture of ruby.

Luo Yechen looked at it for a long time, but couldn't see the mystery in the spoon, so he simply knocked it off, and found that it was hollow inside.

There was still a little reddish liquid in it.

After examination by the government doctor, it was confirmed that it was a dangzi, which was exactly the same as the toxicity in the ginseng soup.

Dangmenzi is actually a kind of spice raw material, but if it is taken orally, it will cause abdominal pain, diarrhea, dizziness and nausea.

The doctor said: "When the door is taken from the body, it is a kind of oil-like thing, with a faint fragrance, and it will melt when heated, so people often use it to make incense wax and incense pills."

Xiao Xixi glanced at the maid with sympathy.

"When you were stirring the ginseng soup, the poison had unknowingly seeped into the soup. You really didn't know anything, but you almost killed the princess."

If she didn't come today and no one stopped the bowl of ginseng soup, the consequences could be imagined.

Probably the person who poisoned never thought that he would kill a Cheng Yaojin like her halfway through.

The appearance of her and the emperor became the biggest surprise in this plan.

When the maid next to her heard this, her face turned as pale as paper.

She hurriedly knelt down and cried, "I don't know that this spoon has been touched by someone. The slave never thought of harming the princess and Xiao Langjun, please forgive me!"

Luo Yechen originally wanted to severely punish the maid who almost poisoned the princess, but remembering that the princess had just given birth and it was not appropriate to see blood in the house, she had to forcefully suppress the thought of killing and said through gritted teeth.

"Send it to Zhuangzi, this king doesn't want to see her again!"

Seeing that her life was saved, the maid kowtowed with snot and tears in thanks.

She was taken down.

Luo Yechen looked at the housekeeper and asked about the origin of the spoon.

The housekeeper said: "This spoon is a gift from a foreign businessman. That businessman specializes in jade business. He came to the palace to give gifts, firstly to show his goodwill to the prince, and secondly to be able to show his favor in the "Shengjing Daily". Advertise the jade sold by his family."

Since the "Shengjing Daily" became popular in the city of Shengjing, some people soon discovered the business opportunities, one of which was advertising.

Of course, they didn't know the word "advertising" at first, because Xiao Xixi said the word "advertising", and King Ying thought it was quite appropriate, so he used it. opened.

Today, "Shengjing Daily" has specially set up a small section dedicated to advertising.

These advertisements can not only bring popularity to the business, but also facilitate the people in Shengjing, and generate income for the newspaper.

Three birds with one stone!

It is precisely because of the good effect of newspaper advertisements that more and more businesses have come to hear the news, hoping to place advertisements in newspapers.

"Shengjing Daily" does not accept all advertisements. It needs to be screened to confirm that the content of the advertisement is true and the business reputation is good before it can be published.

Even with strict scrutiny, there are still many merchants advertising, and now they have been lined up three months later.

In order to be able to cut the queue and advertise in advance, some businesses will come to the newspaper office with gifts in private, but there are also more courageous people who will go directly to the King of England.

The jade merchant in the butler's mouth is obviously the kind with a lot of courage.

When the businessman came to the palace, King Ying was still in Wanhai City, and Princess Ying was too lazy to deal with him, so she asked the housekeeper to receive him.

The butler listened to his explanation and politely declined his request.
