Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1008: Chapter 1008: Do Your Best to Investigate_1 Chapter 1008: Chapter 1008: Do Your Best to Investigate_1 “Yes, the whole table is filled with delicacies, but these two items are the most outstanding,” Bai Tianyou answered very succinctly.

Yang Wenxiao raised an eyebrow and asked, “Then tell me, if someone thinks that the monkey brain dish and the Taro Ball Milk Tea are not delicious, and the other dishes are the tasty ones, what would that signify?”

As he spoke, he gestured toward the other bowls and plates on the dining table.

Just as Bai Tianyou was about to continue tasting the Taro Ball Milk Tea with his spoon, he stopped his motion at the words and looked up at Yang Wenxiao.

Yang Wenxiao’s bright and sharp eyes were watching him, his face carried a hint of a very faint smile as he waited for an answer.

“Your Highness, has something happened?” Bai Tianyou quickly put down the spoon in his hand and spoke earnestly.

“It’s not that something has happened, it’s just a bit strange,” Yang Wenxiao said, waving his hand and then picking up his chopsticks to start eating. He had been busy serving Bai Tianyou and had barely eaten anything himself.

“Strange how?” Bai Tianyou asked.

“A person’s taste, changing all of a sudden,” Yang Wenxiao said, doubts beginning to grow in his mind.

He had also considered the possibility that it might be an issue with him and Yang Hao, but clearly, it was the tastes of a few people, including Emperor Yongan, that had changed.

The tastes of him and Yang Hao, they were consistent with the general public’s.

The ones with an issue must undoubtedly be Emperor Yongan and Yao Xian.

But now, he couldn’t find out what was hidden behind all this. The chefs in the Imperial Kitchen hadn’t been changed, and these chefs hadn’t come into contact with any strange people lately, nor was there any change at home.

He had also secretly checked the food ingredients and condiments; they were all normal.

Could it be that Emperor Yongan and his group had been targeted during his absence from the Palace?

But if they were targeted, apart from the differences in taste, Emperor Yongan and Yao Xian showed no other abnormalities.

Was he making a big deal out of a minor issue?

Watching Yang Wenxiao’s hesitant expression, Bai Tianyou spoke up, “Your Highness, one’s taste is generally fixed, but it’s not unusual for it to suddenly change.”

For example, some people don’t eat cilantro, but later on, they suddenly start eating it.

“But if a group of people’s tastes suddenly change, that would certainly be abnormal.”

One coincidence is plausible, but too many coincidences suggest deliberate arrangement.

Hearing this, Yang Wenxiao heaved a slow sigh, “I’m well aware of this principle.”

But right now, the problem was that he couldn’t find out exactly what was wrong.

Unable to find the problem, he was afraid of alarming the snake, and given the current situation, he could only endure it.

Endure it until after the New Year.

After the New Year…

Perhaps inviting Qiao Xiaomai to Capital City to take a look?

But what could a village girl possibly notice…

“Your Highness, have you arranged for someone to monitor the purchasing of all the ingredients in the Imperial Kitchen?” Bai Tianyou asked.

Although Yang Wenxiao spoke vaguely, he had already guessed what had happened.

This was indeed a major issue, to think that someone would target the food—what a clever way to deal with the Royal Family without shedding blood!

Yang Wenxiao nodded, “I have sent people. There are people at every step, hopefully, we can find out something.”

Meddling with food means only one thing: poisoning. It must be a slow-acting poison; as of now, the only change in Emperor Yongan and his group is in their tastes. The process of poisoning must be a long one, offering some time to bide.

In the meantime, he would just use his fondness for Qiao Xiaomai’s culinary skills as an excuse to ask her for more items.

Having made up his mind, he called Ren Zhong over and asked him to send a message to Qiao Xiaomai: could she make some food easy to store, like pastries or something? It isn’t right to keep eating vegetables and sweet potatoes all the time.
