Chapter 2443 Insufficient Seasoning

Princess Shanzi's eyes lit up when she saw Bai Ruozhu. She didn't feel contempt or incomprehension, and she liked Bai Ruozhu even more in her heart.

"Fuso's dress is very different from that of the Central Plains, right? I heard that people in the Central Plains wear bright red." Princess Zhanzi said in a low voice.

Bai Ruozhu replied with a smile: "Yes, the Central Plains people like joy, and the Fusang people like the color white, which represents purity. Each has its own characteristics."

Princess Shanzi was even more happy, "Master Bai is very knowledgeable. Today is the engagement ceremony. Everything will be kept simple. When it comes to the Ya'an wedding, the wedding dress will be more grand, but it will still be white."

Bai Ruozhu nodded, "I hope I can stay until the princess's wedding and be happy."

"If Mr. Bai has not left and must come to watch the ceremony, the kid from Ya'an will definitely be happy." Princess Shanzi said with a smile.

As the ceremony began, Princess Ya'an quickly glanced at Bai Ruozhu. She was still worried about the second prince's situation, but she quickly looked away.

If Bai Ruozhu can appear here, the second prince must be fine, otherwise Bai Ruozhu would be too busy rescuing people to come here?

Bai Ruozhu noticed Princess Ya'an's gaze, and then observed Prince Wende standing next to her.

He is the eldest son of the emperor's younger brother. He has the title of prince in the Fuso royal family, and his status is quite good.

He is slightly taller than the second prince and the eldest prince, about nearly 1.8 meters tall. He stands tall and straight, and is full of momentum. At first glance, he is a martial arts practitioner.

In addition, he is darker than the second prince, has a healthy complexion, and looks quite masculine. Just looking at his appearance and figure, Princess Ya'an would be worthy of marrying him.

It's this closeness...

The ceremony ended in about two-quarters of an hour, and finally the emperor stamped his seal on their engagement letter, indicating that the royal family recognized their engagement.

Then there was the banquet. Princess Shanzi took Bai Ruozhu with her. Bai Ruozhu glanced at Feng Lanying quietly and said to Princess Shanzi: "Your Majesty, I'm going to clean the room, and I'll be next to you later."

"Okay, I'll ask the maid to guide you." Princess Shanzi immediately asked a maid to lead the way. Bai Ruozhu thanked her and followed with Feng Lanying.

The two left at this time without attracting anyone's attention, but Shenzong glanced in the direction they left, and the emperor happened to see them.

As soon as the emperor took Shenzong to the banquet hall, he smiled and said on the way: "Mr. Shen, I noticed that you are very concerned about Master Bai."

Shenzong smiled and said: "Yes, it is rare to see such an outstanding woman. It is a pity that she is married, otherwise my eldest son would not have married his wife."

The emperor suddenly understood and said with a smile: "You should give up on this idea. Don't look at Master Jiang as he doesn't like to talk, but he is very strong. I don't think he is necessarily weaker than the first warrior, Naichi. Your elder brother is not him." opponent."

After he finished speaking, he laughed jokingly, and Shenzong Yi also laughed, "There is a saying in the Central Plains that fair ladies and gentlemen are good at marrying each other. My big brother can still win over her."

If Bai Ruozhu hears this, she will definitely curse her. She already has a husband, so why bother fighting for it? Even in modern times, there is no way to destroy other people's families.

But what she doesn't know is that Fusang's marriage is still very open now. Even married women can remarry. However, this openness does not come from the world's tolerance for women. On the contrary, capable men can propose to marry others. Wife is like robbing.

At this time, the women who were robbed did not have much say. Even if they were unwilling to do so, they would accept it and feel that they should respect the strong.

On the other side, Bai Ruozhu and the others arrived at the clean room. The maid was waiting outside. Feng Lanying followed Bai Ruozhu and walked in. This is because women's clothes are complicated, and it is normal for a maid to wait beside them when going to the toilet.

Just when Feng Lanying was about to speak, Bai Ruozhu made a silent gesture. It wasn't that she thought Princess Shanzi sent someone to spy on them, but that she didn't trust Princess Shanzi's maid.

There are many internal agents deployed in this palace. Who knows what the ability of the person waiting outside is, and whether he is a member of Shenzong Yi?

Bai Ruozhu pulled Feng Lanying's hand over and stroked her palm.

"Let's just say a few words to avoid suspicion outside."

After she finished writing, she said, "Please help me take off the hairpin first, it's a bit heavy."

"Yes, madam." Feng Lanying replied respectfully, and then started writing in Bai Ruozhu's palm.

"I just heard it. The system reminded him to complete the task, saying that points would be deducted if he failed again."

Bai Ruozhu nodded happily and wrote to her: "You can continue to listen to the banquet later, be careful not to be discovered by him."

Feng Lanying nodded.

Soon the two of them left the clean room and followed the maid back to the banquet room.

Shenzong Yi secretly asked the system, and the answer he got was that Bai Ruozhu still brought the same people as before, so there was no problem. Could it be that he was really going to the cleansing room, or was he being careless?

He couldn't just stare at Bai Ruozhu all the time. The emperor had already noticed it. If others noticed it too, it would be inconvenient for him to turn around and take action.

However, the excuse he just made seemed good, so maybe that's what he should do.

Shenzong was in a much better mood, with a smile on his face.

There was nothing special about the banquet. The only thing that caught Bai Ruozhu's attention was that there were two more dishes from the Central Plains on the table, which she had cooked before.

"The Emperor particularly liked those two dishes, but he was too embarrassed to bother Mr. Bai, so he asked the chef to study them. However, I think the taste is not as good as Mr. Bai's." Princess Yoshiko said.

Bai Ruozhu thought she was being polite, smiled and took a sip, and immediately understood that the subtle difference was because there was no chicken essence.

Although many people do not agree with the use of chicken essence and MSG in cooking, apart from the aroma of stewed soup ingredients, if you only add salt to stir-fry, the taste will be different from adding chicken essence.

After all, Shenzong Yi was an ancient person, and even though he had a system, he didn't know how to make fresh soup noodles. Bai Ruozhu snickered, this might be a way to steal Shenzong Yi's business.

"It's because there's not enough seasoning. I'll talk to you in detail later." Bai Ruozhu said with a smile and didn't go on. This is not the place to talk.

"Oh, okay." Princess Zhanzi didn't expect it to be a problem with the seasoning. She was surprised and responded hurriedly.

After the banquet was over, Bai Ruozhu returned to the courtyard with Feng Lanying.

"How's it going?" Yuan Licheng saw Feng Lanying coming back and hurriedly greeted him.

"Let's talk after we enter the house." Feng Lanying also learned to be cautious.

A group of people entered the flower hall, Yuan Licheng explained the formation, and then Feng Lanying explained what she heard.

"What, you said his food was poisonous?" Bai Ruozhu was surprised.

She didn't do anything yet, firstly because there were so many people at the time, and secondly because she didn't dare to poison someone easily to scare the snake. So who gave Shenzong the poison?
