Chapter Five Hundred and Eleven Changes in Chaos and Chinese Fans
Wang Jiantong died. He died suddenly. As soon as he entered the city gate, there was no sound, blood flowed from seven holes, and he didn't even utter a last word.
This incident caught Di Renjie and others off guard. Speaking of which, they are also cautious people. How could they not send someone to protect them?
Among the team escorting Wang Jiantong were Zhan Zhao and the female bodyguards of the Zhan family, masters from Tie Shou and the Taifu Mansion, cavalry from the Yang family, and even Yin Man personally escorting him, but... in the end Wang Jiantong died suddenly and inexplicably.
.
Hu Hai was furious, but there was no one to express his anger for a while. After all, all the escorts were confused, and no one could find a reason yet.
What can Hu Hai do? Should he just grab someone by the collar and call him a loser? No, so he can only hold it in. However, for some loyal ministers, the emperor's appearance of being incapable of attack made them feel even more uncomfortable.
There is a saying that the king humiliates the minister and dies, and their blood pressure is rising.
Therefore, the construction of the palace had not yet been completed, and the entire imperial capital here began to be in turmoil. All the yamen began to use their own connections to gather relevant information from every nook and cranny. However, it was Zuo Zhou who finally got some clues first.
This side, or to be more precise, is Song Ci who has recovered from his injuries from Zuo Zhou's side.
"Self-destruction Gu, a kind of Gu from Miao Xinjiang, can enter the host's head along the blood, but it will not cause harm. The host will not feel pain or any negative effects. Therefore, this kind of Gu is found in nature.
It’s a harmless insect!”
Song Ci wiped his hands and gave everyone an answer that sounded ridiculous.
"It's harmless if it's all burrowed into the head? And if it's harmless, how did Wang Jiantong die, and why did he get the name 'self-destruction Gu'?" Lu Xiaofeng leaned aside and watched the entire dissection process, feeling a little nauseous now.
, the mood is not good either.
Song Ci said matter-of-factly: "It is indeed harmless. The reason why it is called self-destruction voodoo is because when the host dies, it will self-destruct if it does not get nutrition. Regarding this, I have also studied the effects of these self-destruction voodoos.
There is an organ in the body that can produce some negative substances. If there is no neutralization of nutrients in the human brain, it will swell due to too much negative substances. Unfortunately, because self-destruction worms only exist in the human brain, so I still
There was no opportunity to look closely at what this negative substance was."
Zuo Zhou felt mystical as he listened, "Then how do you know this information? Is it written in the book?"
"I once met a doctor when I was working on a case in the Song Dynasty. She was dignified, gentle and kind on the surface, but the medical research she did secretly was horrific and bloody. In order to study the habit of self-destruction poison, she could infect innocent people with self-destruction poison, and then cut them open.
Brain research, because people will die soon after the craniotomy, so she only has a few minutes to research the self-destruction Gu every time she kills a person. All this information comes from her previous research data!"
"What happened to this woman? Did you catch her?"
Song Ci sighed leisurely: "He is already dead. I supervised the execution..."
One look at Song Ci's expression and he knew there was a story, but Zuo Zhou didn't ask any more questions, but instead brought the topic back to the case, "Since the self-exploding Gu insect only occurs after the person dies, the cause of his death is not
This one."
Song Ci shook his head, "No, that's it. There is a special method in the Five Poison Sect, which can intercept the self-destruction Gu's ability to absorb intracranial nutrients through certain means. However, the self-destruction Gu will attack prematurely, thus blowing up human brain tissue.
"
"Five Poison Sect? Why are you related to the Five Poison Sect again?" Lu Xiaofeng rubbed her nose. The Five Poison Sect also got involved? Isn't this imperial capital chaotic enough?
Song Ci smiled and said: "Although it is a voodoo technique, we cannot relate everything to the Five Poison Sect, because this method is not a unique skill. What's more, many of the Five Poison Sect's unique skills have been lost, and it is difficult to say who this bewitcher is.
who."
Zhuge Zheng felt a little regretful, "Mr. Song is right. The Five Poison Sect has been injured due to the previous war, and many things in the sect have been robbed. Now we really can't use poison poison and other things on them."
Press. What's more, I can't think of any connection between the Five Poison Sect and what happened in our imperial capital. I'm afraid even if some of us are willing to make a long trip to the Five Poison Sect, we may not be able to get relevant information."
Lu Xiaofeng spread his hands, "So, this is a useless clue."
"That's not necessarily true." Di Renjie looked at Song Ci with a smile, "Sir, do you know how this self-destruction Gu enters the human body?"
"blood!"
"That means there must be an injury, right? The injury on Wang Jiantong's body seems to be the one stabbed by Princess Yinman." Di Renjie turned around and glanced in the direction of the palace.
Xiao Prince Consort immediately understood what he meant, "I am an old face, so I should be able to borrow Princess Yinman's sword. You can check it out. But I am not optimistic about this matter, because after such a long time, it is difficult to say whether there is anything involved in it."
There is no loophole, Wang Jiantong's wound has not been bandaged properly, who knows when he was poisoned."
Zuo Zhou looked at everyone, "Do you feel that... the time has dragged on for too long? Half a month has passed since the battle in the Imperial Capital. Why was Wang Jiantong just escorted here?"
"..."
"Why didn't you talk?" Zuo Zhou suddenly looked at everyone strangely, "What happened that I don't know about?"
After all, it was Di Renjie who had the best relationship with him. He could only say, "We knew that when Xu Fu was doing things secretly, we had already started to target him in the court, but... we didn't expect that His Majesty would provide him with protection. If not,
If we stop him, the position of National Master will probably belong to him!"
"Huh?" Zuo Zhou was confused, "I remember that the winner in the imperial examination was not Xu Fu. What? He really acted like a housewife!"
Bao Zheng smiled bitterly, "You don't know, the efficiency of handling official affairs in the court has been much lower during these days. After all, Zhao Gao is dead, and we have no guiding light, so we have to think twice about all decisions. Especially
These are decisions that have short-term benefits but long-term disadvantages, and it is very difficult for us to handle them. And when His Majesty makes a decision, how much confidence does he have in himself?"
Zuo Zhou was very happy when he heard this, "I think it's quite simple. Didn't he say that his decisions are always in harmony with Zhao Gao? Then just do the opposite according to his own ideas."
Di Renjie shook his head fiercely, "This matter cannot be discussed, not to mention that sometimes, we think the same as His Majesty. If you want to say that we think the same as Zhao Gao, then how can we be embarrassed!"
Zuo Zhou raised his eyebrows. This is nothing new. The special thing about Zhao Gao is that he does many things that seem to be beneficial to the country, and even the officials agree. However, out of trust in his beacon effect,
Everyone objected in a daze, but it turned out later that there would always be some accidents that would collapse the original normal conclusion, and on the contrary, a lot of benefits would be gained. You say God is not magical!
"You didn't warn Hu Hai that Xu Fu had done a lot of tricks secretly? You must know that when the number one scholar was selected in the main hall, he was the one who stood up and exposed the identity of Pudu Cihang. Now, at a glance, it is obvious that he is colluding with Qinglonghui.
You use Pudu Cihang to attract our attention." Zuo Zhou said again.
Di Renjie rolled his eyes, "You think we didn't say anything? But His Majesty said we were all just guessing, and we can't doubt the minister without evidence."
"What kind of delusion did Xu Fu give to Hu Hai?" Zuo Zhou covered his face. This majesty seemed to be running towards the path of a coward.
Bao Zheng continued: "It is said that Xu Fu has gone into seclusion recently, saying that he wants to calculate the secrets of heaven."
"Measuring heaven's secrets is ridiculous. Now the two cosmic wills have not yet completed the integration. All that can be calculated are small problems. Do you still need to retreat? You ask him to come to me to calculate, I will let him calculate enough!" Zuo Zhou
I'm a little angry, but fortunately I didn't really join the court as an official, otherwise my heart would be broken.
Zhuge Zheng looked a little funny when he saw Zuo Zhou, "Don't get too excited, I think Xu Fu may have been injured by Qiao Feng. Linglingfa... Oh, that's when Wei Xiaobao was inquiring about the expenses of Qintianjian,
I found that he bought a lot of medicinal materials, so I had reason to find that this guy was recovering from his injuries."
Zuo Zhou was stunned for a moment. In fact, there was one thing he never said. He was the one who said that he was the one who killed Song Huizong, but it was Li Shishi and Qiao Feng who actually did it, so both of them got some luck. Well, Jiang Yuyan
It seems like it also cut off some light.
Li Shishi changed his name to Li Xunhuan, and Qiao Feng seemed to have regained his life and made a not-so-nominal cut with the Beggar Gang, and the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms also transformed. It would be reasonable to say that he could suppress Xu Fu, who was not good at melee combat, and defeat him, but Qiao Feng had not heard of it before.
That he seriously injured the man in black?
"Okay, no matter what the reason is, when you tell me this, don't you mean to say that Hu Hai might have asked someone to do this case?" Zuo Zhou shrugged dumbfounded, "Don't forget, if Hu Hai wants to be partial,
It was very simple for Xu Fu to keep the impeachment story intact. Moreover, Hu Hai had always wanted to kill King Xian, the leader of the Qinglong Society. He could not give up the reason for annihilating the Qinglong Society because of these things. Even,
I suspect that even if Wang Jiantong doesn’t say anything, Hu Hai can forge a confession, but it will be difficult to deal with him now that he is dead!"
"Of course we don't think this is Hu Hai... I mean His Majesty did it, but we have been secretly monitoring Qin Tianjian, Bao Baolong clan, Imperial Concubine Yu Huatian's group of internal servants, and Lu Xiaofeng were all involved.
, but I have never seen Xu Fu send any information to the outside world." Zhuge Zhengwo sighed.
Hearing this, Zuo Zhou secretly sighed, Wei Xiaobao's status had risen very quickly. If he had made more contributions, he might have been able to obtain a serious official position or even a noble title. "Could it be that there are tunnels in the Qintian Prison or something like that?"
?”
"The imperial palace was smashed into such a state by Pudu Cihang, what tunnels can be left?"
"..."
Okay, what a dead end, "What next?"
"We can only wait for Xu Fu to take action first! Or, we can put out a bait, for example..." Di Renjie looked at Song Ci, "Just say that our Mr. Song's research has made significant progress. Let's see if Xu Fu is in a hurry!"
Zuo Zhou looked at Lao Di in shock, "As expected, he's playing with his brains. It's very dirty. I like it!"
