Chapter 180 Tofu Banquet
Lin Qianya bit her red lips. Although she was unhappy, she didn't dare to show it at all. Who made her feel that she was in the wrong this time? How could she dare to say anything?
"Princess Jin taught me that, and I remember it."
"Let's go." Nan Jiao said calmly.
Lin Qianya looked at her, saluted to Zhan Qingheng, turned around and left quickly, holding the handkerchief tightly in both hands, as if she was about to tear it to pieces in front of everyone.
Jiang Zhiyan laughed in her heart, thinking that Lin Qianya was really brainless. Fortunately, she spoke fully and did not mislead her and Qingheng, otherwise they would have been slapped in the face in public.
"Fifth sister, luckily you managed to escape smartly, otherwise if something happened to you, your family would be very worried." Jiang Zhiyan said solemnly.
"I'm not your fifth sister, and we're not sisters. Don't try to make connections." Nan Jiao had a cold look on her face, and she watched her pretending quietly.
It's a pity that she didn't go to China to be an actress.
With this kind of acting skills, it should be no problem for him to win an award.
"You..." Zhan Qingheng's face darkened and he glared at Nan Jiao. It seemed that she was really excluding Zhiyan and actually said that they were not sisters.
"Prince." Jiang Zhiyan stopped him from saying anything further.
Zhan Qingheng felt even more distressed when he saw her expression. Why was she so kind? Did she tolerate Jiang Nanjiao because she felt that she had been living away from home for sixteen years?
"Prince Rui, since your people have gone to the palace to invite the palace masters, remember to send them away later." Nan Jiao said with a smile.
Zhan Qingheng glared at her with gritted teeth.
This bitch!
She had caused all the trouble, and now he had to finish it here.
He is so mad!
Jiang Zhiyan said with a gentle smile: "Your Highness, let's wait here. Those two people are very skilled, and there is also the person who plays the pipa. We should find them to prevent them from hurting the people."
Zhan Qingheng patted her hands and said with a doting smile: "You still think about the people."
"It's my responsibility." Jiang Zhiyan smiled shyly.
The people looked at her with respect, as if she was the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family who had been raised since childhood. Although Princess Jin was powerful, the two of them were more popular as a pair than Princess Rui.
Nan Jiao almost vomited her breakfast. "You guys just wait, oh, father likes children very much, you guys have to give birth to children for the royal family as soon as possible."
After saying this, she left gracefully.
Zhan Qingheng: "..."
Jiang Zhiyan: “…”
Thinking of the bridal chamber last night, both of them felt unhappy.
But they decided to try again tonight.
…
After Nan Jiao left, she did not go to Qianji Pavilion again, but returned to Baicao Medicine Shop.
"What did you say? People from the Netherworld Cult?" After hearing about the assassination just now, Gu Feng frowned and looked a little solemn.
The Netherworld Cult is the enemy of the Shura Clan. They are not a good organization, but specialize in doing evil things. If they have money, they will accept missions to kill people.
Nan Jiao picked up the teacup and took a sip. "Find an excuse that won't arouse suspicion and transfer two people from Shura Gate to me."
"Okay." Gu Feng nodded. He guessed what kind of person she wanted. He should have sent two helpers to help her. If she hadn't reacted quickly today,
I would probably get stabbed by a normal-looking little boy.
After leaving the herb shop, Nan Jiao went straight back to the palace. Along the way, she was wondering who had spent a large sum of money to hire someone from the Netherworld Cult to kill her.
She had fought with people from the Netherworld Cult before. She wondered if they would recognize her from her moves.
Now is not the time to announce that she is the leader of Shura Sect.
After all, the enemy is in the dark and she is in the light.
We haven’t reached the palace yet.
Nan Jiao saw two women standing nearby. One of them was wearing a long green dress with a belt that perfectly showed off her slender waist.
A pink plum blossom hairpin was inserted in her hair.
She recognized it quickly.
It was Wei Ying and her maid He Xiang.
Tsk tsk.
Has this woman not given up yet?
Her husband sacrificed his life for the country, is she planning to rely on Zhan Beiheng?
He clearly rejected her last time.
Unexpectedly, a few months later, she was still in the capital.
"What are you doing here?" Nan Jiao walked over.
"I have met Princess Jin."
The master and servant saluted respectfully together, without any disrespect at all and with a particularly good attitude.
"Is there something wrong?" Nan Jiao asked indifferently.
"Princess Jin, I opened a tofu shop in the capital. I heard that you had left the capital, and when I knew you were coming back, I sent some for you to try." Wei Ying said softly.
Nan Jiao: “…”
She planned to settle down in the capital and open a shop.
"I don't mean any other thing. I really want to give some to you to try as a token of my gratitude for King Jin's help. I won't have any other thoughts." Wei Ying hastened to make herself clear.
"I'll accept it for him." Nan Jiao said.
He Xiang hurriedly handed her the bamboo basket.
After Wei Ying saw her take it, she said softly, "If you don't like it, you don't have to eat it. If you think it tastes good, you can ask Mo Shiwei and the others to buy it."
Nan Jiao hummed lightly.
"Then we'll leave first." Wei Ying bowed and left with her maid.
Nan Jiao watched them walk away, then carried the bamboo basket into the palace.
On the street.
"Madam, do you really want to be on good terms with Princess Jin?" He Xiang asked in a low voice.
"We can only make friends with her. Originally, we thought she had an illegitimate daughter, but it turns out that she gave birth to a dragon and a phoenix twin for the royal family. Now she's very popular." Wei Ying was envious and jealous.
What can she do?
I can only slowly get closer to Jiang Nanjiao and try to get the chance to visit the palace more often in the future.
He Xiang said nothing more. She knew how favored the Princess of Jin was now. How could the Madam, who had a child, compete with her?
…
After Nan Jiao entered the palace, she handed the bamboo basket to Chen Dapang and asked him to check whether it was poisonous. He did not learn any other skills from the four seniors.
I know a lot about poison.
"Princess, there is no poison and no medicine." Fatty Chen finished the examination quickly.
"Take it to the kitchen and ask them to make a tofu feast tonight." Nan Jiao had no interest in touching the tofu, no matter whether Wei Ying had really modified it or just pretended to do so.
There was no way she could befriend her.
After all, she had deliberately planned to attack Zhan Beiheng, and he had already been on her blacklist.
Fatty Chen: “…”
Tofu feast?
Eat all tofu?
In the evening.
Zhan Beiheng rushed into the palace quickly and headed straight for Yuqing Courtyard. At this time, he had no intention of smelling the fragrance in the courtyard and strode towards the dining room.
When he saw that Nan Jiao was fine, his tense face relaxed.
It was only after he left the barracks and entered the city that he learned that she had been assassinated on the street.
"Father."
Baoer and Yoyo shouted cutely that they were waiting for him to come back for dinner.
Zhan Beiheng hummed, walked to the table and sat down. He took a look at the dishes on the table and twitched his lips slightly: "Why are there so many tofu dishes?"
It’s almost a tofu feast.
She doesn't even prepare meat for the two children?
Nan Jiao smiled at him and said, "Someone sent it to you as a thank you."
"who?"
"Wei Ying."
Zhan Beiheng looked at her and said seriously, "I have nothing to do with her. I made it clear to you last time."
