Are You OK

Chapter 6 PoisonousTwo

19

Zhou Rongyu thought for a while and let someone take Li Ke to a guest room.

Li Ke took a bath, ate, and was insomnia until early in the morning. He woke up and realized that he was confined.

Even if the first sentence I heard when I woke up through the book was not "Your Majesty finally woke up", at least it was "The young master actually lived", and there were panicked maids and doctors around him.

Looking at the locked door and the shadow of the guard outside, Li Ke felt sad.

Three days later he saw Zhou Rongzhen again.

Zhou Rongyu pointed to a wooden box on the case, and said, "These are all mushrooms that look like shiitake mushrooms they found from various channels. Look for the poisonous mushrooms you mentioned."

Li Ke stepped forward and slowly picked for a long time, picked up a piece and looked at the reddest, hesitatingly said: "This seems to be that... and it seems to be just shiitake mushrooms."

Zhou Rongyu didn't talk nonsense. He immediately grabbed a dog and stuffed a mushroom into the dog's mouth.

Half a day passed, the dog was alive and kicking.

"..." Li Ke said, "I remembered it again. The article said that after being cooked, it smells slightly bitter than shiitake mushrooms."

Zhou Rongyu said: "Are you delaying time?"

Li Ke said: "No! Really not! I swear!"

Li Ke was shut back to the guest room.

Zhou Rongyu ordered people to move him a stove, a small pot, and a daily supply of mushrooms, and he was limited to find the poisonous mushrooms within ten days.

Rick looked at the pot.

Li Ke said dazedly: "I feel that I have just broken through the lower limit of treatment for people who travel through."

Zhou Rongping seemed to think about it after hearing this.

Zhou Rongyu slowly said, "The dog will give you too."

"..."

Li Ke said: "Mouse...Mouse will do. Oh, I want vegetable oil."

Zhou Rongyu said: "Go to the kitchen to pick up the condiments. Someone will follow you. Don't run around."

The room has been filled with oily smoke from now on.

Three mice were kept in cages and served as Li Ke’s test subjects.Only a small piece of each mushroom is cut out and put in the pot. After being out of the pot, go to the nose and smell it before feeding it to the mice.

Li Ke did not report the good news for a long time, and Zhou Rongyu never visited the scene to check it.

The emperor died, and the new emperor ascended the throne. The court was in turmoil, but it did not seem to have anything to do with his Royal Highness Yu.Every day, Li Ke could see Zhou Rongzhen strolling in the courtyard admiring flowers from the window. Sometimes he would sit down and read a book to eat snacks. He seemed to be a rich idler who cares nothing about everything.

Li Ke couldn't help thinking: Who is going to kill such a person with such a great effort?

What kind of person is it that the dignified prince cannot be executed directly, yet he has to spend such a lot of work in secret?

The more Li Ke thought about it, the more he felt that he might not live long.

On the seventh day, Zhou Rongyu happened to pass by the door of the guest room and smelled a tangy aroma of vegetables.

Zhou Rongyu opened the door and saw Li Ke sitting cross-legged on the ground facing the stove, holding a plate of tempting shredded pork with mushrooms, and eating rice wine as a condiment in the kitchen.

Li Ke said, "Come on, your Highness, would you like to try it? We also make mushroom and tofu soup here."

Zhou Rongyu looked down at the mouse in the cage next to him.

The three mice were fed chubby, with greasy fur, where they looked half poisoned.

Li Ke said, "If they are okay after eating for half a day, I will also put the remaining part in the pot. It's just a bit disgusting to smell the mushrooms until now."

Zhou Rongyu leaned down, took the chopsticks in Li Ke's hand, adjusted his head, and ate a piece of shiitake mushrooms with the tail of the chopsticks.

Li Ke said: "Cooking skills are on the way?"

Zhou Rongyu said, "Do you know you only have three days left?"

Li Ke said: "I know. If I don't poison a rat in three days, I will die."

Zhou Rongyu said: "Yes."

Li Ke said: "If I poison one, I will die too."

Zhou Rongyu said: "Why?"

Li Ke said: "At first glance, you are plotting something big. The purpose of isolating me in the room for experimentation is to make it easier to kill after the incident."

Zhou Rongyu praised: "Yes, but some brains."

"..."

Li Ke said, "Thank you."

twenty-three

Li Ke said, "I knew I would not struggle anymore. If you send me to the jail, at least I can live a few more years."

Zhou Rongyu said: "You came from another world so hard to spend the rest of your life in the jail? Can you live a little ambitious?"

"..."

Zhou Rongyu said: "You help me make poisonous vegetables, and I will let you live for two months."

"..."

Li Ke said, "Thank you."

It happened suddenly.

The next evening, just as Li Ke was cutting mushrooms as usual, a mouse in the cage suddenly turned over his belly, foamed at the mouth, kicked his legs, and died of breath.

Li Ke blinked in disbelief, knelt down and looked at the mouse in silence.It took a long time to pour myself a glass of rice wine, and said: "Life is impermanent, every day is bad and fortune, Brother Mouse, you take a step first, and the little one will arrive soon. Come, I will toast you a glass."

When Zhou Rongyu entered the door, he saw Li Kezheng pouring half a glass of wine on the floor in front of the dead mouse.

Zhou Rongyu said: "Where do you feed the mushrooms?"

Li Ke put down the wine glass, pulled out a plate of mushrooms that had been cut off, and said, "It's one of these."

Zhou Rongyu nodded and said, "Cut a piece from each one. Come here, go and bring up a few prisoners."

A few days later, after scientific screening experiments, the toadstool was finally found.

Li Ke looked at the hideous corpse of the unlucky condemned prisoner, and the weak Liu raised his hand to support the forehead.

Zhou Rongyu said, "Are you afraid?"

Li Ke said: "I think I was regarded as the god of dark cooking by my relatives and friends, but I didn't expect that one day I would be able to send someone to the sky."

"..."

Li Ke poured himself a glass of rice wine, and said: "Life is impermanent, and every day of misfortune and good fortune, death row brother, you take a step first, the little one will arrive soon."

Zhou Rongyu suddenly smiled.

Zhou Rongyu raised his hand while laughing, his slender fingers nervously covered his eyes, and his shoulders twitched and bent down.

Li Ke said: "What are you laughing at?"

Zhou Rongyu said quietly: "Blessings and misfortunes every day of laughter."

"..."

Li Ke said: "You really are the one who made a big deal."

Li Ke said again: "Laughing like you is generally a role that destroys the world."

The people in the palace were able to do things well, using that toadstool as the standard, and quickly found a batch of exactly the same.

Zhou Rongyu retired again and everyone took Li Ke into the Xing Hall to show him a dish.In the center of the arrogant gold plate, there is a plump carp in the precious and important place.

Zhou Rongyu said: "This is a typical dish in the imperial dining room in the palace, called Liyue Longmen. It is braised carp, served with mushrooms, cabbage heart and winter bamboo shoots. This dish is always available for banquets in the palace."

Li Ke said: "I don't understand."

Zhou Rongyu said: "You are limited to learn this dish within two months, so that the appearance and taste are not bad, and it is fake."

Li Ke said: "I seem to understand a bit."

Zhou Rongyu said, "Talk about it."

Li Ke said: "You want me to replace the shiitake mushrooms with the poisonous mushrooms and mix my dishes into the palace banquet."

Zhou Rongyu said: "Not bad."

Li Ke said: "I heard that every dish in the palace will be tested with silver needles before being served. You are trying to create a poison that cannot be tested with silver needles. I also heard that someone in the palace will taste the food. But the poisonous mushrooms will only occur after a few hours, and they will be useless if they taste it."

Zhou Rongyu said: "You think a lot."

Li Ke said: "I suddenly thought of another one, do you want to listen?"

Zhou Rongyu said, "Let's listen."

Li Ke said: "Since it is a palace banquet, no matter who you invite to attend, there is no shortage of one person."

Twenty-seven

Li Ke understood that he knew too much, but he was not very afraid.

Zhou Rongyu said that he could still live for two months. After those two months, it must be the day when the poisonous mushrooms came in handy.

Two months later it happens to be the New Year’s Eve dinner.

Li Ke entered the intensive practice.

Poisonous mushrooms are slightly redder than shiitake mushrooms, and have a bitter taste than shiitake mushrooms. It takes a lot of effort to cover up their natural color and peculiar smell.

Suddenly, the fumes in the guest room were more intense, and the mushroom smell was disgusting.

Li Ke finally couldn't stand it anymore.

Li Ke said: "I will quit."

Zhou Rongyu said, "Oh, do you want to die?"

"..."

Twenty-eight

Li Ke said, "Everything is going to die. There is only more than a month left. I am still bored in the room every day, except for fried mushrooms. What's the point of this lingering life? It's better to die."

Zhou Rongyu understood.Zhou Ronggu sipped the tea ceremony: "So you want to go out?"

"..."

Li Ke said: "It's hard to come here, at least let me stroll around the capital."

Zhou Rongyu said: "You know so many secrets, I can't let you out of my sight."

Li Ke said: "So you accompany me to stroll around."

"..."

Zhou Rongyu said, "What did you say, say it again."

Li Ke said: "So you accompany me to stroll around."

Twenty-nine

Zhou Rongyu is the one who made great things.

People who make big things cannot trust anyone on key issues.

So even though there were hidden guards following behind him, he personally changed into casual clothes and stood beside Li Ke.

Li Ke asked for a new outfit and went out happily.The four streets and eight streets of the capital are bustling.Zhou Rongyu sleeved his sleeve and said, "Where are you going?"

Li Kexin said: Naturally I go to a place where I can escape for my life.

Zhou Rongyu is not capable of martial arts, but the secret guard is very good.Li Ke had a lot of deliberation. He had to go to the place where the three teachings and the nine tiers gathered, and try to get into the crowd. It is best to create a little chaos before he can take the opportunity to get out.

Li Ke said: "Let's go to the brothel."

"..."

Li Ke said: "Let's go to the brothel."

"I heard it."
