C69 Misplacing Herbs

"So that's how it is." Nightmare Yu nodded, feeling surprised at the bottom of her heart. She hadn't thought that Jiang Chen would do such a thing.

In her mind, Jiang Chenbi would tell the Grand Emperor everything she did for him. She would never hide anything from him, as if he didn't know her filial piety. How could she do something like this?

Could it be that after this incident, she had restrained herself a lot and understood that she had to act with caution and a low-profile?

"Momo, since little sister has put in so much effort just for grandmother's sake, please praise her well in front of the taijun."

Mu Yuting held onto Night Jade's hand, her words tinged with a pleading tone, speaking in an extremely sincere tone. He looked like he was truly thinking for Jiang Chen and Jiang Chen's sake, but deep down, he was full of disdain.

Nightfall and Mu Yuting looked at each other for a while. Her eyes were extremely clear, and they glimmered under the morning sun. When she saw this, her mood changed, and she couldn't help but have a much better impression of Mu Yu Ting.

"Miss, rest assured, this servant will not disappoint your good intentions." If the Grand Monarch knew that you are so kind, I believe he would also be very pleased. "

"How could I be as outstanding as Senior Servant said?" "When I was in trouble, my sister helped me a lot, but now that she's in trouble, why wouldn't I help her?"

Mu Yuting said. Out of the corner of her eyes, she saw Jiang Chen walking towards her with the medicinal food in his hands. The corner of her mouth raised into a faint smile.

"Elder sister — —" Jiang Chen raised his head and looked in the direction of Mu Qiuting. Before she could finish her words, she choked in her throat and forcefully swallowed her words.

The medicinal food was taken in too full. Earlier, she had been paying attention to her feet to prevent the medicinal food from spilling out of the bowl, so she had not paid attention to the situation in the courtyard. Fortunately, she managed to restrain her words in time. Otherwise, she would have exposed her identity.

But then why was Nightjade here? Could it be that Mu Yuting had invited her here? But that shouldn't be the case. Once Evening Jade found out that the medicinal cuisine had been cooked by her, wouldn't Mu Qianyu's desire to curry favor with Mu Taijun completely disappear? Mu Yu Ting wasn't stupid. There was no reason for her to do this.

Jiang Chenbi quickly retracted the doubt in her heart, and revealed a decent smile. She nodded at Night Jade, "Why would this mama be in such a good mood to come here for tea?" How is the Grand Master? Is he well? "

Seeing that there was indeed a bowl of medicinal porridge on the tray in her hand, Night Jade believed Mu Qiushan's words even more. She looked at Jiang Chen with a gentler expression, "The Emperor is doing very well. If Miss Jiang is worried, you can come and take a look yourself."

"The medicinal porridge that my little sister made is really good. Just the smell of it is enough to make one's appetite go wild." Mu Yu Ting smiled and turned her head to the side to give the Blue Luan a look.

The Blue Luan understood. It stepped forward and took the tray from Jiang Chen Bi Bi's hands, preventing her from trying to trick him again by intentionally shattering the bowl and throwing it away.

Jiang Chenbi's mind raced, "Didn't you want to learn how to make medicinal porridge from me? Hurry and see if it meets your requirements." If elder sister likes it, I'll teach you. "

Jiang Chenbi only wished for Mu Lutang to grow a little bit more color and not expose her words. Otherwise, she really didn't know how to reply in such a roundabout manner. It wouldn't be worth it if he just wasted her life.

Mu Yu Ting could hear the hidden meaning behind Jiang Chen's words, but she wasn't surprised. Instead, she followed her words and said, "If little sister can really teach me, then that's great."

Nightfall's eyes swept over the two of them, carrying an inquiring look. However, Jiang Chen's words were different from what Mu Lutong had just said.

If Jiang Chen didn't want to hide the truth from her, then there was something fishy about it.

The corner of Mu Yu Ting's mouth rose. She took a bowl of porridge and placed it in front of her, as if she wanted to taste it.

The Blue Luan's heart was immediately lifted high, an uneasy feeling was born in its heart, spreading continuously as it thought to itself: "Young miss can't be really going to drink this porridge, right? If Miss Jiang had added any poison into this, wouldn't she be tricked? "

As she thought about this, the Blue Luan's hands froze. Her overreaction caught the attention of others.

Mu Yuting coughed lightly and said, "Blue Luan, what are you hesitating about? Could it be that you're afraid that your little sister will poison me in this medicinal food? "

"This servant dares not." Although the Blue Luan still felt that something wasn't right, it still carried the medicinal food to Mu Qiantang's room.

When Jiang Chen saw Mu Yutang pick up the spoon and stir up the medicinal food, his pupils constricted, and he clenched his hand into a fist. It was true that she had poisoned the medicinal food, but only a small amount. Just by drinking this bowl of wine alone, Mu Qiushan would definitely not find anything out of the ordinary, just that …

Mu Yu Ting was about to put the spoon into her mouth, but she suddenly stopped what she was doing. Her eyebrows slightly knitted together and her expression became somewhat complicated. She carefully sniffed the medicinal food, and her expression became more and more solemn.

"Elder sister, what happened to you?" Jiang Chen's heart skipped a beat and he started to worry.

"Sister, did you add licorice in your porridge?" Mu Yu Ting looked at Jiang Chen Bi Chen with a sharp gaze.

Jiang Chen nodded his head. He then asked, "What's wrong with that?" Jiang Chen nodded, "It's fine, but I can't tell if it's true or not." "What's wrong?" Jiang Chen asked.

"But my sister added another sweet taste to the medicinal food." Mu Yu Ting's figure rose a bit, "I'll let you get rid of all the swelling and dissipate the swelling." It has the effect of treating edema and ascites, but not all of these ailments. "

"And does my sister know that Gan Zhe is the opposite of the licorice root? If you use it with licorice root, the toxicity will increase. Although little sister uses less and less of the drug, if you consume it for a long time, you will definitely die from chronic poisoning! "

When he said that, everyone was shocked, they all looked towards Jiang Chen Bi Chen in doubt. The light in Night Jade's eyes deepened. One must know that this medicinal bowl of food was meant for Mu Taijun to eat. The poison that was added to the bowl was undoubtedly directed at Mu Taijun.

"Elder sister, I …" "I don't know …" Jiang Chen's eyes sparkled, and his tone was filled with shock. He looked completely innocent.

"Little sister, I've seen the recipe for your medicinal porridge, but I didn't see these two medicines back then." But why did it appear in your congee now? If I don't find out about this, do you know what kind of consequences it will bring!? " Mu Yu Ting slapped the table heavily, her eyebrows slightly raised.

"I don't know either. I'm only responsible for the production of the medicinal ingredients. The matter of the medicinal ingredients was handled by a maid named Mingyu, so I don't know anything about it."

Jiang Chenbi lowered her eyes to ponder for a moment before turning her head to order Dong Xuan to bring Mingyu over. She asked, "Speak, who gave you the guts to secretly replace the ingredients?"

Mingyu made up her mind, but her voice was still trembling with fear, "It's this servant herself!"
