Foreign envoys inquired about the news of the aristocratic families in the capital, and specifically inquired about the unmarried sons and girls, which is worth pondering.

"Your Majesty intends to exchange marriages between countries?" Chen Xiuyan said.

"It's possible." Tao Lao answered.

Chen Xiuyan took the opportunity to deliver things to the outer courtyard to tell Chu Wenqian and Tao Lao about the progress of what happened in the backyard, and this is the latest news.

"When we negotiated peace with Tatars, the first emperor married Princess Anning to Tatars, and the princess became the successor queen to the king of Tatars. I heard that the king of Tatars loved Princess Anning very much. Since then, she has never taken a concubine, and even sent Anning The fifth prince born to the princess will be raised as the heir," Tao Lao said.

"The people who came this time are all distinguished people from all over the world. It is not impossible to continue to maintain the peace between countries through marriage with Chu State." Elder Tao frowned slightly, "Let's not talk about the other two countries, Princess Goryeo will personally Come, in the eyes of others, it is for marriage."

"Old Tao suspects that Goryeo is a thief calling for a thief, trying to use the princess' life to break the relationship between the two countries?" Chen Xiuyan boldly guessed, "Goryo wants to use troops against Chu?"

Koryo borders Shandong, and Liaodong is in charge of the border military, because the two countries have maintained peaceful relations for decades.

"But Koryo is small and weak, so it shouldn't be like this." Chen Xiuyan was very puzzled.

"I remember that there was only one princess in Goryeo, and she was very much loved." Chu Wenqian said, "The only daughter that King Goryeo had in his forties was the queen's daughter."

"The king of Koryo has many sons, but none of them are born by the queen. The internal affairs are chaotic, and all the princes want to succeed to the throne. This annoys the king of Koryo's health even worse."

Chu Wenqian's words made Chen Xiuyan understand a little bit, "You mean that Goryeo plays and directs itself, killing two birds with one stone. If something happens to the princess, and the news is sent back to Goryeo, the King of Goryeo may not be able to withstand the blow and die. Second, can Chu State pay the compensation it deserves, such as ceding the land?"

A light flashed in Chu Wenqian's eyes, and it really made sense.

"Your daughter-in-law is really good. If it was a man, you, the number one scholar, might have to be replaced." Tao Lao teased.

"The person who did the poisoning can only be a Korean. There are traitors around Princess Gaoli." Chen Xiuyan stood up, "I'll go to the backyard, I have to lure the snake out of the hole, otherwise Princess Gaoli's safety will not be guaranteed."

Chen Xiuyan took Mammy Mu and Nanny Miao to the main courtyard where Princess Gaoli was. According to the rules, Chen Xiuyan wanted to greet Princess Lu, but they said she was tired and took a rest, so she could save her effort .

Chen Xiuyan knew that Princess Lu was setting herself apart, and she might even sit on the sidelines and watch the tigers fight and watch the play very happily.

"I saw that the princess likes some light snacks made by Nanny Miao very much, so I specially asked someone to come over in person. Princess, see if the maids around you want to go to the kitchen to learn how to make these snacks, so that the princess wants to eat them in the future. You can eat it anytime." Chen Xiuyan said with a smile.

"The concubine Shizi is so generous, how can I not be happy." Princess Gaoli really likes what to eat, "Xiao Huang, the three of you follow to the small kitchen and study hard with Madam Miao."

"Princess, you can't leave the servants, the servants will not go, let Xiaohong and Xiaolu go with them." Xiao Huang knelt down and said.

"You don't have to worry." Chen Xiuyan spoke before Princess Gaoli agreed, "I will wait for you to return to the princess before leaving. Don't worry, you princess won't have any problems with me."

Chen Xiuyan's words reassured Princess Gaoli. She took a few doses of Chen Xiuyan's medicine, and now she is completely healed, but she was ashamed that day, and now she really doesn't want to go out. She wants to wait until the Longevity Day, because she really can't see anyone again. When others saw her like this, they would only think that she was seriously ill, so that they could get some sympathy for the loss of status that day.

"Since the concubine has said this, don't worry, you all go to study, you can do it when you go back to Korea, but you have to let your father and mother try it too." Princess Gaoli is a little homesick, she wants to go home .

When only Princess Gaoli, Chen Xiuyan, and Nanny Mu were left in the room, Chen Xiuyan winked at Nanny Mu, and Nanny Mu immediately retreated to the door to guard the door.

"Is there something to say to the concubine?" Princess Gaoli frowned.

"I want to ask the princess, are there any servants around you who are poisonous?" Chen Xiuyan's words made Princess Gaoli's brows tighten even more.

"What do you mean, Shizifei, do you want to say that I was poisoned by myself this time, pretending?" Princess Gaoli said angrily.

"Princess misunderstood, you did not poison yourself." Chen Xiuyan explained, "But there may be a traitor around you."

Princess Gaoli looked at Chen Xiuyan, her eyes were full of distrust, "Princess Shizi may not know that the people around me have been serving me since I was a child, and it is impossible for them to betray."

"People die for money, birds die for food, princess, if a person is granted great favors, or is taken advantage of, it is not impossible to do such a thing." Chen Xiuyan thought of the maid next to Pei Xue, But it's just a mess.

"Although this matter is only suspected at the moment, as long as you try it, you can catch the opponent's fox's tail." Chen Xiuyan said seriously.

"The Crown Princess has already figured out how to try it?" Princess Gaoli asked with her lips tightly pursed.

"The other party probably won't use the same method of poisoning. Today, I will ask Madam Miao to guide your maid to cook food. There will be some unexpected teachings. The mutual generation and restraint of food."

Chen Xiuyan's words made Princess Gaoli a little angry, "You made your own claims without my consent, and you used me as bait."

"Of course I can only do it with the princess's nod." Chen Xiuyan apologized, "If the princess agrees, I will let Mu Momo walk around the small kitchen, and Miao Momo will teach. If you don't agree, then today's matter will be over." When I didn't mention it."

Princess Gaoli's expression was unpredictable, she was silent for a long time and finally nodded, "If it wasn't for the people around me, I hope the crown prince can apologize to me."

"Naturally." Chen Xiuyan responded immediately, "I think there should be people around the princess who are skilled in martial arts and can protect the princess. To prove it, the princess can use her own people."

"I see, I won't keep the crown prince today." Princess Gaoli said the words to see off the guests, and Chen Xiuyan got up.

Mu Momo went outside the small kitchen as previously agreed, and told Momo Miao that they had to go back first.

"I have to……"

"Oh, there are crabs in this small kitchen, how can we use persimmons as fruit snacks." Before Xiao Huang could speak, she was interrupted by Mama Miao's exclamation.

"Koryo is also near the sea. You should know that crabs and persimmons cannot be eaten together. Eating them is not good for your health, just like eating ginseng and not eating radishes. These foods will also produce and restrain each other."

Xiao Huang stopped walking out of the small kitchen.
