Chapter 267 begins

"Youqing's craftsmanship is really good, and the fragrance can be smelled from afar!"

When Ruan Youqing was busy helping Chen Xiang and the others to arrange the dishes, the Empress Dowager and Mrs. Ning Guogong walked in hand in hand.

It was naturally Gu Changan who walked in together behind them.

At the same time, Chang Zhen, who was sitting idle at the side, immediately stood up after hearing the Queen Mother's voice, and went over to help them into their seats.

After everyone sat down, Chang Zhen grinned and said, "Today Zhen'er took Sister Youqing to pick some mushrooms, because they picked a lot, so I only cooked what Sister Youqing picked. And this mushroom soup was also made by Sister Youqing herself!"

Ruan Youqing lowered her head shyly, and said softly: "Thanks to sister Zhen'er's help, You Qing can make it. Moreover, sister Zhen'er is kind and kind, and she specially reminded You Qing which mushrooms can be picked and which mushrooms cannot be picked , and even picked it myself..."

"Sister Youqing, you don't have to be so polite. Zhen'er also heard from others. Oh, let's not talk too much, and Zhen'er will serve you a bowl. You can try sister Youqing's handicraft. This mushroom soup... Zhen'er just briefly explained the method from the side, and all the processes were done by Sister Youqing herself, without any help from others!"

After finishing speaking, Zhen Er immediately filled a few bowls.

"Zhen'er is a bit biased, why don't you give me some?" Gu Chang'an said dissatisfied.

Chang Zhen froze for a moment, and then said aggrievedly: "Brother Chang An, Zhen'er remembers that you don't eat mushrooms."

Gu Changan waved his hands indifferently and replied: "Today is different from the past, Xiaoqing made it himself, how can I not try it?"

"No!" Chang Zhen's expression suddenly became serious, and when everyone looked at her, Chang Zhen pouted and said, "Brother Chang An will feel uncomfortable after eating mushrooms, Zhen'er doesn't want you to take this risk."

Gu Changan smiled lightly and said, "For the sake of Xiaoqing, so what if I take a risk."

"No!" It was Ruan Youqing who refused this time.

I saw that Ruan Youqing was different from the gentleness in the past, and continued to speak in a somewhat forceful tone: "Since Mr. Gu feels uncomfortable after eating mushrooms, then don't eat it. Your health is important. If Mr. Gu wants to eat the food made by Youqing himself, then go ahead and eat it." Ci Xiaoqing will do some other things.”

Hearing Ruan Youqing's words, Gu Changan could only sigh with some regret, and then sat back embarrassingly.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it seems...Changan doesn't have such a good fortune!" Mrs. Ningguo seemed to be gloating as she picked up the bowl in front of her, then squinted her eyes and scooped a large spoonful into her mouth.

「Hmm! It’s really delicious! Is this the first time for Xiaoqing to make it?」

Ruan Youqing blushed and nodded.

Seeing this, the queen mother couldn't wait to taste it.

「Ah! It tastes even better than the one made by the imperial dining room! The freshly picked mushrooms are really different!」

The two of them were drinking, when Mrs. Ning Guogong suddenly turned her head to look at Ruan Youqing, and frowned slightly: "Eh? Why is there no one in front of Youqing?"

But Chang Zhen stood up suddenly, then patted his forehead embarrassedly and said, "Zhen'er was only focused on serving the Queen Mother and the old lady, but forgot to serve a bowl for Sister Youqing too. Zhen'er Just... um? Why... no more?"

The soup pot actually bottomed out.

"It's my fault. There are few people eating on weekdays, and the soup bowls I prepare here are all small!" Mrs. Ning Guo frowned at this time and said.

"It's okay, it's okay, it doesn't matter if you don't drink." Ruan Youqing hurriedly waved his hands to indicate that it's okay.

Chang Zhen also rubbed his hands in embarrassment, and said slowly: "It's a pity that my bowl has already been touched by my spoon, so I can't give it to Sister Youqing..."

"It's okay, it's okay, there should be some in the pot, and I'll let someone fill some later."

Gu Changan spoke at this time, unhurriedly: "I feel more comfortable if someone can accompany me."

"You boy, you have not brought others to share the joys and sorrows, and you are going to share the hardships together?" Mrs. Ningguo curled her lips and reprimanded Gu Changan in dissatisfaction.

Gu Changan raised his eyebrows and smiled without speaking.

While several people were talking, the queen mother suddenly sighed: "It's a pity that it has been raining for the past few days, otherwise, we would have taken Youqing to soak in the hot spring."

"That's right, Zhen'er told Sister Youqing before. But... when I just came back, I saw that there was a sunset in the sky. It must be clear tomorrow."

"If it's sunny tomorrow, let's go enjoy it." When the Queen Mother was smiling, her body suddenly froze and her face gradually turned pale.

Chang Zhen, who had been silently observing Mrs. Ning Guogong and the Queen Mother, naturally saw the change in the Queen Mother. She was overjoyed, and she was going to pretend not to see it.

Sure enough, after a while, the queen mother finally couldn't bear it and groaned in pain.

At this moment, Mrs. Ning Guo also experienced a change, and the cup in her hand fell to the ground as if she hadn't held it firmly.

"Old lady! Queen Mother!" Gu Changan's face darkened instantly.

Ruan Youqing also stood up in panic.

I saw Mrs. Ning Guogong and the Queen Mother covering their stomachs together, sweating profusely.

Gu Changan was already standing beside the two of them, and asked worriedly: "Old lady, queen mother, what's wrong with you?"

The empress dowager's lips turned white, her eyes gradually became dizzy,

Mrs. Ningguo seems to be able to speak, but it took a lot of effort for her to speak tremblingly: "I... I feel as uncomfortable as being bitten by insects..."

"Go and call the doctor! No, go and invite the imperial physician from the palace!" After hearing this, Gu Changan immediately ordered to the people beside him with a gloomy face.

The maids of Suoxing Villa are also clever. When encountering such a thing, they immediately divide the work and do what they should do.

Ruan Youqing stood there helplessly, with red eyes, as if panicked.

After hearing what Mrs. Ning Guo said, Chang Zhen felt at ease, knowing that they were really poisoned by the mushroom.

Ruthlessness and murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and Chang Zhen pretended to be worried and said, "This...the two old people are so good...why suddenly...it's like this...could it be...could it be that they ate something bad? ?”

Gu Changan turned back and gave her a cold look: "I ate something bad? We ate the same thing, why are we all right?"

Chang Zhen pursed his lips as if wronged: "Brother Chang An, Zhen'er is just guessing, why don't you send someone to check the dishes on this table?"

「When will we find so many dishes!」

"Then... let's think about it carefully, what dishes did the two old people eat that we haven't eaten?" Chang Zhen whispered tentatively.

Sure enough, Gu Changan frowned slightly, and set his sights on the table of dishes.
