Secret agent crossing: Overbearing prince's favorite concubine

Chapter 643 Reasons
Duan Ziyan walked all the way to the kitchen, ignoring the strange gazes of the maids or other people on the way, and went straight in. As soon as he entered, he saw his subordinates sitting there pitifully with food, eating there with a pale face.

When he first walked in, no one noticed, everyone was eating with their heads down, because except for the distinguished guests and some people of high status, they would all eat in their own cabins, only the inferior people or the maids and cooks Waiting to eat in the kitchen.

Of course, it is impossible for Duan Ziyan's people to be treated like this. Even if the envoy of Huoyun Kingdom doesn't like Duan Ziyan, he still has to treat her well for the sake of Liukong Kingdom, Jun Hecang, and even Mo Qingli. Speak and speak to him in slang.

There is only one reason why Duan Ziyan's people eat in the kitchen, and that is - convenience.

This made Duan Ziyan feel that his subordinates were a little pitiful, tormented by diarrhea to such an extent.

"Show me your food." Duan Ziyan stepped forward, kicked the subordinate in front of him with his toe, and said.

At this time, the subordinates realized that Duan Ziyan had come to the kitchen suddenly, which made them a little surprised, and then they stood up, looked at Duan Ziyan in a strange and unclear way, and said, "My lord, why did you come here? "

After finishing speaking, another subordinate seemed to have thought of something, and asked Duan Ziyan with guilt and doubts: "Could it be that no one brought food to you, and then you came here in person?"

As soon as this sentence was finished, all of Duan Ziyan's subordinates in the kitchen cabin lowered their heads, and occasionally a few secretly glanced at Duan Ziyan guiltily.

Duan Ziyan was very helpless and funny looking at them like this. He did go to the kitchen to get lunch by himself before, but that was a few days ago.

But Duan Ziyan didn't explain anything, just raised his chin again, turned his eyes to the food in the bowl he was holding, and then looked at the table over there.

They were all home-cooked dishes, green vegetables and some meat and fish, very common dishes, he squinted his eyes, and felt that the dishes seemed to be a little different from his, but the distance was farther away, so he couldn't see them clearly.

Seeing Duan Ziyan like this, one of his subordinates probably understood that Duan Ziyan seemed to be a little curious about their food. He didn't understand why, but he still pulled the brother who was somewhat blocking Duan Ziyan's eyes, walked to the side, and faced him again. Duan Ziyan asked, "My lord, what are you doing here? Have you had lunch?"

They also feel guilty towards Duan Ziyan from the bottom of their hearts. When Duan Ziyan came, he didn’t consider his basic necessities of life. He didn’t bring a maid to serve him. Things, but now they can't help at all, and let Duan Ziyan, the son, and the court ministers worry about them, which makes them feel guilty but there is nothing they can do.

Duan Ziyan smiled at this winking subordinate, and said: "I ate it, but I found a very strange ingredient in the dish when I was eating it, and I want to know if your food has that kind of ingredient, so Just come and have a look."

After finishing speaking, the expressions of the subordinates standing in front of him suddenly changed. Could it be that something was placed in Mrs. Duan's meal?Now to tell them tactfully?

The maids and cooks standing next to them were sweating coldly, they looked at each other, feeling flustered and at a loss in their hearts, what on earth is this lord of Liukong Kingdom trying to say?If something happened to his meal, the envoys from the Fire Cloud Kingdom would not be merciful in the slightest. At that time, they would be thrown into the vast sea to feed the fish.

Several maids and cooks became more and more flustered as they thought about it, and suddenly they knelt down with a plop, kowtowed to Duan Ziyan and begged for mercy, and explained: "My lord, my lord, the servants didn't add anything to your meal, those ingredients are Very normal ingredients, my lord, those things are said to be non-toxic."

Duan Ziyan was taken aback by this sudden action. He was a little helpless and amused after hearing the crying of the maids. He could only say to the maids and cooks in front of him who looked more pitiful than his subordinates: "Get up, I'm not saying that you poisoned me or something, I'm just curious about the ingredients, besides, the ingredients seem to be a kind of fruit, it smells very fragrant, but tastes a little sour, you know What kind of fruit is that?"

Duan Ziyan signaled his subordinates to help the maids and cooks up, and then asked the women in the kitchen who were always in front of him, and the name of the last question was completely answerable, they had been cooking in the kitchen, How could it be possible not to know what the ingredients and fruits are?

Thinking of this, Duan Ziyan looked at the relieved maids and cooks who had already stood up.

The cooks looked at each other a few times, as if they had thought of what the ingredients were, and it was a little strange, but they could only let a middle-aged woman with a relatively older grade, who looked like a cook, come forward and face Duan Ziyan. Bending down and saluting, he said, "Maidservant, can I ask your lord, is the fruit blue?"

The cook still looked a little afraid of Duan Ziyan, but when she looked up and saw Duan Ziyan's handsome face, she couldn't help but calm down slightly.

After listening to the cook's question, Duan Ziyan nodded and said, "Indeed."

After answering, he walked to the edge of the table, lowered his head and carefully looked at the food on the table, and found that there was indeed no such fruit in it, and he knew from the bottom of his heart that the diarrhea of ​​his subordinates probably had something to do with that fruit up.

Seeing this, the cook also breathed a sigh of relief, if it is, then it is, there is no problem with the fruit, but now the stock is a little less, these ministers and other people from the Lukong Kingdom have never seen it.

Thinking of this, the cook wanted to explain to Duan Ziyan about the fruit and why the fruit was put in the food, but before she could speak, a familiar voice came from the door, which scared her back directly In the team of maids and cooks, everyone lowered their heads, and their respectful appearance made people look sideways.

"what happened?"

After hearing this voice, Duan Ziyan glanced at the cook, then turned to look at the slightly bloated Huoyunguo Laishi who had already pushed the door open.

"Commissioner." Duan Ziyan smiled and stepped forward two steps, nodded slightly to the envoy of Huoyun Kingdom, and said, "Why did the envoy come here?"

"I heard that Master Duan came to the kitchen suddenly. I don't know if there are any unsatisfactory meals? Is there something unsatisfactory?" The envoy of Huoyun Kingdom politely suppressed the strangeness and a little anger in his heart, reluctantly Said directly to Duan Ziyan.

When he was having lunch just now, his subordinates suddenly walked in, saying that he accidentally saw Duan Ziyan go into the kitchen in the kitchen just now, and seemed to say something about the ingredients, for fear that he would slander them for poisoning, Only then did he rush over.

Huoyun Kingdom came to make him a little angry, because although he didn't like Duan Ziyan's tact, he knew that it was a must for a court minister, so he still admired this young minister of Liukong Kingdom, but he was so unreasonable. If you talk about poisoning, then it will not work.

After Duan Ziyan noticed the faint anger in Huoyunguo's eyes, he probably understood in his heart that Huoyunguo's envoy was probably similar to those maids and cooks, saying that he misunderstood the meaning of his words.

Thinking of this, Duan Ziyan couldn't help pursing his lips and smiling, and said to the minister: "There is nothing unsatisfactory. I must have misunderstood you. I just came here to see the ingredients in the kitchen. I was having lunch just now. During the meal, I ate a strange green fruit, and found that it was also in the dish. I was a little curious, so I wanted to come to the kitchen to see if there were any of these things in the meals of my men, so that I also know that my men have been suffering from diarrhea recently. , It’s inconvenient for me to do anything, so I wonder if it has something to do with the blue fruit.”

Duan Ziyan finished all the ins and outs in one breath, so as not to be unclear later when someone said it, he breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the envoy of Huoyun Kingdom with a smile on his face, and said with a smile: "I think you should still be envoy That's fine, so don't worry about anything else."

What he said made Huoyun Kingdom embarrassing and somewhat transferred his anger to the subordinate who had informed him just now, but when Huoyun Kingdom came to look up at Duan Ziyan, his eyes were full There was no anger anymore, only a touch of embarrassment.

The envoy of Huoyun Kingdom came to think for a while, and thought of the so-called blue fruit in Duan Ziyan's mouth. There was a faint confusion and outline in his heart, so he opened his mouth and asked Duan Ziyan with some curiosity: "What kind of blue fruit?"

Although I have said it once, it is obviously impossible for the cook to stand up and answer, and Duan Ziyan can only repeat to Duan Huoyunguo and say in more detail than before: "It is a little smooth on the outside, and the color is blue. The fruit smells very fragrant, but tastes very sour, do you know what it is? I have it in my meals, but my subordinates don’t.”

As he said that, Duan Ziyan looked curiously at the envoy of Huoyun Kingdom who already knew it on the surface, and asked again: "Does the envoy know?"

The envoy of Huoyun Kingdom nodded, he naturally knew it, but Duan Ziyan might get angry when he said it, thinking, the envoy of Huoyun Kingdom looked at Duan Ziyan and asked, "Master Duan can guarantee that I won't be angry after knowing ?"

The envoy of Huoyun Kingdom felt in his heart that no matter how talented and knowledgeable Duan Ziyan was, he was still a proud son and minister, and he might be a little annoyed when he heard what he said.

Duan Ziyan was a little stunned. He didn't know what this fruit had to do with his anger, but he still nodded and said to Huo Yunguo, "I'll tell you, I promise I won't be angry."

The envoy of Huoyun Kingdom thought for a while after hearing this, and finally hummed, ready to tell Duan Ziyan about the fruit.
