As for Zhao Ning, Ye Zhen actually didn't know how to get along with her. She could see that Zhao Ning wanted to make friends with her. Knowing that she doesn't like her, when she sees that she is in danger, she is willing to tell Murong Zhan to save her. Based on this, it can be seen that Zhao Ning is a kind person. It's just that I know what I want, so I try my best to fight for it, and I really want to get out of the life at that time.
If Zhao Ning is fighting for a life in Qi, it will be different from what she saw in her dream. She doesn't have to worry at all, and she can still be friends with Zhao Ning, which is what Ye Zhen hopes.
"Your Majesty, are you really not planning to go back to the palace?" Zhao Ning accompanied Ye Zhen to the medicine field and saw Ye Zhen leisurely picking herbs in the medicine field. Have you lived in Chengde Villa all your life
Ye Zhen glanced at her with a smile, "Are you so worried that I won't return to the palace?"
"I'll be reconciled only when I see you get along well with the emperor." Zhao Ning said angrily, "I've seen that concubine Shu, she pretended to be dignified and virtuous, but I don't know what she has, but she actually..." She looked at Ye Zhen One glance, it's not good to go on.
"Concubine Shu is indeed very gentle." Ye Zhen nodded, "Have you seen your sisters, how are you getting along?"
Mentioning Zhao Xin, Zhao Ning's face became ugly, "She came to Qi State not to meet my sister, but to ridicule me. She said fisher girl on the left and bumpkin on the right. I really want to take two buns to stuff her. into her mouth."
Ye Zhen couldn't stop laughing, "Is it so difficult to get along with?"
"It's not that I don't want to get along well with her. After all, we are sisters. I won't take the initiative to offend others when I live in the country of Qi, but Zhao Xin..." Zhao Ning was furious when he thought of their first meeting. Chu Lai said, "The first time we met, I satirized how many people who pretended to be princesses went to the emperor and were killed. What did she mean by that? Did she mean that I was pretending to be a princess? Hmph, she just didn't want me to become a princess and go back to Qi .”
"Princesses who grew up in the palace are quite different." Ye Zhen whispered, "When you arrive in Qi State, you must know how to be patient in everything. Forbearance is not for the sake of giving in, but for getting more in the future."
Zhao Ning savored Ye Zhen's words carefully, her bright eyes blinked, "Is it like your mother?"
Ye Zhen was taken aback for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "Almost."
"I will definitely remember." Zhao Ning said.
"It's almost time for lunch, let's go to the stream in front today to catch some fresh fish and grill them." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Zhao Ning said, "When I was in Huajia Village, I ate fish every day. I was scared when I saw fish. I lived in Kyoto for a few days, but I missed the taste of fish, but no matter how I ate it, it didn't taste like before."
"Huajia Village is the place where you grew up. No matter where you go in the future, everything you eat there will have a special taste, which is not available in other places." Ye Zhen laughed.
"That's right." Zhao Ning nodded.
The two returned to Daohuayuan together, and Ye Zhen ordered the maid to go to the kitchen to bring lunch.
Today, there are roasted pheasant with chestnuts, sweet-scented osmanthus fish sticks, grilled venison and stir-fried freshwater fish, and four freshly grilled crucian carp, all of which Ye Zhen likes to eat recently.
"It looks delicious." Zhao Ning smelled it and couldn't wait to taste it.
Ye Zhen was drinking soup and asked Zhao Ning to move his chopsticks.
"These fish are all caught in the mountain stream, they are very fresh." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
Zhao Ning wiped the stir-fried river fish, the fish was tender and delicious.
Seeing that she was eating with gusto, Ye Zhen wanted to eat even if she wasn't hungry. She picked up the chopsticks and tasted a few mouthfuls of freshwater seafood. It was really delicious.
"No wonder the empress is reluctant to go back to the palace. It is indeed more comfortable in the villa than in the palace." Zhao Ning sighed, no longer caring about etiquette, and directly took a bite of the grilled fish. I don't know if the stream in the mountain is better. The fish is very fresh and tender, and the grilled fish is cooked very well by the chef. The grilled fish is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. She can't make such delicious fish.
"Eat more." Ye Zhen's chopsticks reached for the grilled fish.
Zhao Ning hurriedly held her hand, "Ma'am, this fish... doesn't seem right."
"What's the matter?" Ye Zhen asked suspiciously, the fish that could be sent to her must have been inspected, the villa was guarded like a fortified wall by Murong Zhan, and she didn't believe that anyone else could come in her Poison things.
"It doesn't taste right." Zhao Ning took another bite, "Is this fish caught from the same stream as these?"
Ye Zhen looked at Hongying, and Hongying said, "They all come from the same stream, is there any difference?"
Zhao Ning shook his head suspiciously, "This fish...should have been raised for a few days, and the meat of these fish is a bit different. When I was in Huajia Village, Hua Pozi sometimes raised some fish, although they only raised them for a few days. But it tastes different."
Hongying and Hongling's expressions changed greatly upon hearing this, "Is there something wrong with this fish?"
"Of course it's okay for others to eat the fish fed with Houttuynia cordata, but the empress can't eat it." Zhao Ning said.
Ye Zhen put down her chopsticks with a heavy face, raised her eyes and gave Dong He a wink.
Dong He's face was pale, she was sent by the emperor to protect the queen, now there is something wrong with the queen's meal, but they didn't find anything to investigate, today they found something wrong with the fish, they don't know if the previous meal was...
"Your Majesty, don't eat this fish. It should be that there are houttuynia cordata near the stream that these fish have eaten." Zhao Ning didn't notice anything unusual at all, and was still eating the fish with a smile.
Ye Zhen nodded with a smile, "Yes, maybe so."
Houttuynia cordata itself is not poisonous, on the contrary, it can clear away heat and detoxify, but it is not suitable for pregnant women who are cold in nature. It is not afraid to eat a little bit occasionally, but if it is eaten regularly, it will definitely affect the body.
Is this someone trying to do something to her child
"Mother, why don't you eat?" Zhao Ning asked.
"I just drank the soup, and I don't feel hungry yet." Ye Zhen laughed.
It's already calm and calm here, but outside the house, it seems like the sky is about to change.
Xue Lin and Wu Chong have ordered people to go to the kitchen to arrest people, including Xiao Xizi who went out to catch fish, and they are waiting for torture.
"This matter must be reported to the emperor." Xue Lin said to Wu Chong.
"Talk to the empress first, and wait for the order of the empress." Wu Chong said, if they tell the emperor like this, they will be beaten to death by the emperor, at least find out who did it.
Xue Lin nodded gently, "Isn't this fish just brought yesterday? It's only been less than a day, how much stuff can be stuffed into the fish?"
"Fish from the creek?" Wu Chong thought of a possibility, and looked at Xue Lin in shock.
"Go!" Xue Lin said in a deep voice.
