Aunt Qian's business in Luoyang is selling all kinds of rouge and gouache for women or men.
Their best-selling product is Baihua Rouge Lipstick, which is said to be made from the color of hundreds of flowers, mixed with whale oil and fragrant powder. It has various colors and is not easy to fade. It is very popular among men and women in Luoyang City.
Recently, the largest shipment is the scrub developed by Changan Baihuafang. It is said that this kind of product has miraculous effects on exfoliating dead skin and whitening the skin tone.
That woman doesn’t want her skin to be fair and tender, and what man doesn’t want to be fair and chubby?
In addition, the products produced by Chang'an Baihuafang represent the best in the world, and the raw materials are purely natural, which is definitely not comparable to those toxic whitening cosmetics made from lead and tin powder.
Ever since the old immortal Sun Simiao came to the conclusion that lead is very poisonous, people with a little bit of wealth will only use cosmetics produced by Chang'an Baihuafang.
Ever since I heard about the new whitening product called scrub, both men and women have been buying it.
Whether it's a man buying or a woman buying, it's normal. Mrs. Qian will always treat her with a smile, try her best to satisfy the customers, and look forward to them coming back after they finish using.
It’s very unusual for a Taoist priest to buy scrubs.
In fact, it is normal for Taoist priests to buy scrubs. After all, in the Tang Dynasty, many Taoist priests had wives and lovers, and many ordinary people also liked to wear Taoist robes.
However, Mrs. Qian knew the purpose of the scrub that Yin Erhu took away. It was used to smash Xue Changfeng's body and change his skin.
Moreover, the lady also knew how much the dosage was, and the Taoist priest who just came to buy the scrub was a fair-skinned Taoist priest, but the amount of scrub he bought was almost the same as the amount that Xue Changfeng smashed.
Then, Aunt Qian naturally thought of Zhang Guo, who also turned red and black after being exposed to the sun.
In the past few days, Mrs. Qian and the others have mobilized all the forces they can to secretly investigate Zhang Guo's whereabouts, but they have not been able to find him. Now, Mrs. Qian feels that they should track down this Taoist priest who bought a lot of scrubs.
With just a glance, six of them looked like they were idle men running errands for others in Luoyang City, and they followed him without haste...
Li Hong covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief and carefully examined the maggot buds shaking his head in the cracks of the skin of a bearded man.
Today is the third day, and as the master said, maggots have grown on this thief who is still alive and has done all kinds of evil.
A doctor from the Imperial Medical Department who specialized in serving the East Palace, after feeling the pulse of this tall man, saluted the prince and said: "Your Highness, this man is still alive, but his heart pulse is somewhat disordered."
Li Hong couldn't stand the stench emanating from the strong man's body, so he continued to cover his nose with a handkerchief and said, "How long can you survive? Can you survive ten days?"
The doctor glanced at the strong man whose head was tied to the wooden board and said: "As long as he has enough water and food, I think ten days is nothing to him. Even if the skin is ulcerated, these maggot buds will continue to grow and survive another ten days."
There is no problem with God.”
The strong man, who originally knew nothing about his physical condition, heard the doctor tell him that maggots were growing in his body. He didn't know where he got the strength, and the veins in his thick neck bulged. He roared and broke the fastener that was holding his head.
He couldn't wait to look up at his body, only to see countless white maggots crawling on his belly, thighs, and especially the triangle area under his crotch...
"Roar——" The strong man began to go crazy, or in other words, anyone would go crazy when they saw maggots squirming, burrowing, and crawling around their bodies.
Unfortunately, his body was tightly tied to a wooden board. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not break free from the board. He could only make a thumping sound when the board lay flat on the ground.
Li Hong still covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, watching indifferently as the strong man continued tossing on the wooden board.
Seeing that the blood vessels in the strong man's arms and legs were all bulging, it seemed that he had used his strength to the extreme. At this moment, the strong man also stopped breathing, and the wooden board also made a creaking sound.
The eunuch Chunxi carefully stood in front of the prince, and the doctor also guarded the prince cautiously.
Li Hong pulled the doctor away impatiently, but this guy blocked his view.
The strong man whose whole body was extremely tense suddenly let out a long breath, and his tense body gradually relaxed. But after he breathed out and relaxed, he could no longer move, but the maggots could not be shaken off by him.
Young man, he is now working hard to climb up the strong man's body.
The doctor touched the strong man's bloody wrist, then stood up and said to the prince: "This man is already dead."
Li Hong covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief with one hand, opened the file on the table with the other hand, looked at the person's identity, and said angrily: "Even the thieves who massacred villages and households can't bear the fear caused by maggots.
, how did Zhang Guo endure it?"
Of course, Chunxi and Yizheng knew that His Highness the Crown Prince was not asking them, so they remained silent.
"Chunxi, is this the most violent and crazy villain you have found for the lonely king?"
Chunxi hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Highness, this is the slave who carefully selected from more than 600 death row prisoners. This Dong Feihu is running rampant in the Funiu Mountain area and kills people without calculation. I heard that everyone from an octogenarian to a young man has been killed."
He kills the babies after they are born, but he did not expect them to be so useless."
Li Hong glanced at the corpse and said thoughtfully: "It's still too low-level, too low-level.
Taifu, if it were you, could you survive it?"
Xu Jingzong, who was lying on a recliner and was drowsy, opened his eyes, looked at the body covered with maggots and said: "The older I get, the more I miss life. I am extremely attached to every moment of life.
Even if it is bad, as long as I can live, I will work hard to survive.
Things in this world are unpredictable, and God knows what changes will occur at the next moment. As long as you are alive, there are countless possibilities."
Li Hong nodded and said: "King Gu is now very sure that Zhang Guo is still alive."
Xu Jingzong smiled and said: "If Your Highness tells His Majesty this news, not only will you not get His Majesty's appreciation, but on the contrary, you will only get His Majesty's disgust."
Li Hong sighed and said, "Don't you say that all fathers like the children of Master Qiang Shengzu?"
Xu Jingzong smiled and said: "This does not include the emperor."
Li Hong frowned and said: "It seems that this news can only be sold to my mother. Only in this way can our interests be maximized."
Xu Jingzong still smiled and said: "It is for the benefit of His Highness, not including me. I have been sleeping all day long and don't know anything."
Li Hong said helplessly: "No wonder my master said you are the most difficult person to deal with in the world."
Xu Jingzong shook his head and said: "Yunchu underestimates everyone in the world. I can only be considered one of them at most, not the only one."
While the two were talking, there was a noise outside the door of this remote hall. Li Hong looked over angrily and saw the Crown Princess Pei Wanying walking into the hall surrounded by the eunuchs Li Hong arranged to guard the door outside.
.
Xu Jingzong slowly hid behind the curtain with the support of Yi Zheng. The two of them were foreign ministers and could not see the Crown Princess.
As soon as he saw the prince, he said angrily: "As a prince, your highness should have the etiquette of a prince. Even if you have a beautiful woman you like, you should know the concubine. After identifying her, you can make arrangements for your highness. How can you make arrangements for your highness in private?"
It's a tryst.
If you don't talk about it this way, it will be easy for others to criticize you."
Li Hong pointed angrily at the body covered with linen and covered with maggots on the wooden board and said, "Yes, that is the person the lonely king is having a tryst with today."
Pei Wanying angrily walked to the corpse and pulled open the linen cloth with force, wanting to take a closer look at this voluptuous bitch. Unexpectedly, what came into view was a male corpse with bleeding from all the orifices and covered with maggots.
She turned around and glanced at Li Hong expressionlessly, then fell softly to the ground, unconscious.
Li Hong picked up the soft and boneless Pei Wanying with one hand, slapped her on the face and said: "This is the consequences of disobedience. When you climb into the bed of the lonely king in the future, you will have what the master once said."
A psychological reaction, right?”
Pei Wanying's eyes were tightly closed, and her breathing was even more vague. Looking at the beauty in her arms, Li Hong sighed again and said, "It would be great if you could always be so quiet."
The handsome young Taoist priest passed over Zhong Kui who was lying on the threshold, but the pile of scrubs he held in his hand did not move at all.
It was not that he wanted to be rude to Zhong Kui, but that Zhong Kui was unwilling to leave the gate of Qixia Temple at all. Ever since the attack on Baiyun Temple and the loss of most of his followers, Zhong Kui drank all day long and never left the gate even half a step away.
They had to deal with it on the spot, causing the gate of Qixia Temple to stink.
Fortunately, Qixia Temple is located in a remote location and is the family temple of the Minister of Rites, so it did not attract idle crowds.
However, Zhong Kui, who was originally drunk, suddenly opened his eyes at this moment. His huge body jumped from the door like a bird, his hands turned into claws, and he fiercely grabbed a thin idle man.
Xian Han was caught off guard and watched helplessly as Zhong Kui enveloped him with his broad body. Before he could even let out a scream, Zhong Kui pinned him firmly to the ground.
At the same time, there were two yellow sounds in the woods opposite the gate of Qixia Temple. Zhong Kui's body suddenly turned over, and his two feet accurately kicked the two crossbow arrows. The crossbow arrows flew into the air. At the same time, a flying claw quietly
Flying over silently, he wanted to take the opportunity to snatch the idle man from Zhong Kui's hands, but Zhong Kui grabbed the flying claw firmly with his hands. As soon as his feet landed on the ground, he shouted: "Come here for me -"
Zhong Kui used a lot of force, but unexpectedly the enemy let go of the flying claw. The flying claw and a piece of rope were taken away by Zhong Kui lightly.
Immediately, the sound of crossbows sounded again, and the thin idle man who fell on the ground took the opportunity to throw a dagger at Zhong Kui. He rolled quickly on the ground, and after a few ups and downs, he disappeared into the woods.
Zhong Kui avoided the dagger, held a flying claw in his hand, and roared towards the woods, but did not continue to chase.
