On the way to Yunzhong Palace, Mingruo and Si Haochen combed through the matter carefully and discovered that the information about the old palace master of Ziwei Palace from Leng Yu was obtained through Aqiu.
Leng Yu was imprisoned in a cell in Dali Temple. It was just a coincidence that Ah Qiu would gain something every time he went there.
Moreover, it was this news that led them to Yunzhong Temple.
Mingruo asked Linglong to pay more attention to Aqiu's actions, but she didn't expect that she would have clues so quickly.
"Master, I'm afraid this slave has been controlled by someone." Aqiu shook his head vigorously, "Just now, that person asked the slave to poison the master's food. Even if the slave dies, he will not harm the master.
However, I can’t remember what slave I was before, and I can’t remember who that person was. Please punish me, Master.”
"Do you still have the medicine? Bring it to me and take a look." Mingruo felt that that person was very special, so Linglong kept a close eye on him, but she didn't notice anything unusual about the people who came into contact with Aqiu.
"Yes." Ah Qiu took out two packages of medicinal powder from his sleeve pocket and raised them above his head.
Just as Ming Ruo was about to pick it up, Si Haochen took the medicine bag first and handed it to Jun Che: "Let's take a look first."
Jun Che had no objection and naturally took the paper package and opened it for inspection. The powder seemed to be harmful to people. But after testing, it was found to be neither fatal nor hallucinogenic. It was really confusing.
"I'll do it." Mingruo's head is full of dark things. He should be the professional when it comes to things like drug testing! His husband is obviously 'bullying' his senior brother, and it's hard for him to cooperate with him.
Jun Che made sure that the medicinal powder was not particularly dangerous, so he handed it to Ming Ruo.
Mingruo took a little and examined it carefully. He found that the toxicity of this medicinal powder was very weak. Judging from the ingredients: taking a small amount will make people feel weak and fatigued; taking a larger amount should cause symptoms of vomiting blood, but it will not cause death.
"It's interesting." This medicine is not very reliable in harming people, but it is quite practical in deceiving people. After drinking this pack, you will look like a "terminally ill", and even if you check the pulse, you can't diagnose the cause of the disease.
Mingruo wrapped up the remaining medicinal powder, and on the first day of the new year, he came over carrying a man dressed as a handyman disciple.
Linglong waved her little wings: Mommy, the baby has found the person, isn’t the baby very powerful!
"This man is hiding very deep. If it weren't for the Gu spirit that led the way, he might have escaped from Lingyun Peak." Chu Yi restrained him and made him kneel on the ground.
Jun Che was surprised. Lingyun Peak had a simple population and everyone, including the handyman disciples, recognized him, Mr. Qing Wei or the Master. It was impossible for outsiders to sneak in.
"Raise your head." Jun Che said solemnly.
Although the man lowered his head, he didn't give the impression of fear, but more of a stubborn resistance.
Chu Yi grabbed his bun and pulled his head up.
"Senior brother, be careful!" The medical system issued a 'toxic substance attack' alarm, and Mingruo quickly warned.
Jun Che was also on guard. A blue hidden needle shot out from the man's mouth and hit the jade bone fan placed in front of Jun Che. There was a sound of gold and jade colliding. Jun Che waved the jade bone fan and the hidden needle turned in a different direction.
Stab into the man's shoulder.
The man groaned and had no other reaction. The poisonous needle was shot out of his mouth, probably because he had taken the antidote before.
This man has a handsome appearance, and there is a trace of blood on the corner of his lips. It should be that Ah Qiu broke through the control technique and suffered a backlash. Although Ming Ruo couldn't call him by name, he must have seen him at Lingyun Peak before.
Jun Che narrowed his eyes slightly: "You are not Changfeng."
The man was a little surprised and looked up at Jun Che.
Jun Che put his hand behind his ear, and a 'human skin mask' was pulled off. Since he didn't use the potion to remove the 'mask', part of the mask's skin stuck to his face, making his face look tattered.
of.
This face looked a little disgusting, but Mingruo still recognized who he was: "Huangfu Xiong?"
"Since you know my identity, why don't you let me go quickly!" Huangfu Xiong saw that the matter was revealed, but he shook up the majesty of the Ziweigong Master, "Well...ahem..."
Huangfu Xiong wanted to say a few more words, but Jun Che poured a packet of medicinal powder into his mouth: "I am a little curious about the toxicity of this medicinal powder. Since you have such a noble status, you just happened to be testing the medicine."
"You..." Huangfu Xiong held his throat with one hand and reached into his sleeve pocket to feel for the antidote.
The Imperial Preceptor was testing the medicine, how could Huangfu Xiong be disturbed and miss the Imperial Preceptor's business? Hearing only two clicks, Chu Yi removed Huangfu Xiong's arm.
"How dare you..." Huangfu Xiong shook his prosthetic arm and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Um..." Mingruo quickly took a few steps back. She didn't have much clothing, so it would be bad if blood was spilled on her. "Although this powder is not fatal, it can vomit blood so violently that it won't cause excessive blood loss."
And die..."
The effect of the medicinal powder was not so strong in the first place, but Huangfu Xiong was so angry that his blood surged, making the originally mild poison become overbearing: "My father... will not let you go..."
"I'm just afraid that he won't dare to come." Si Haochen snorted coldly, "He is always timid and timid, worse than that turtle!"
Huangfu Xiong is also considered a talent. Not only did he escape the pursuit of the secret guards, but he was also able to control Aqiu at every opportunity.
Mingruo was too lazy to talk nonsense to him: "Tell me, why did you lead us back to Yunzhong Palace?"
"Humph!" Huangfu Xiong turned his head to one side with courage, threw it away, and sprayed half a circle of blood.
Ming Ruo frowned - she felt sick when she smelled blood, and this man kept spraying.
Si Haochen gestured to Chu Yi, who grabbed Huangfu Xiong's chin and drank the 'brain-burning' truth-telling potion.
"Bah...poof..." After being given medicine twice in a short time, Huangfu Xiong jumped between choking to death and vomiting blood.
"What are you manipulating Ah Qiu for?" Chu Yi asked sternly.
"Introduce the queen to Yunzhong Palace." The truth-telling potion took effect, and Huangfu Xiong's eyes were dull.
"Purpose!"
"have no idea……"
"What is the purpose of letting Ah Qiu poison him?" Jun Che asked.
"have no idea……"
"Your father is also in Yunzhong Temple now? What is his identity?" Si Haochen asked.
"have no idea……"
Mingruo was completely speechless - he didn't know what to ask and wasted a bottle of truth-telling potion.
An Xin ran in from outside: "Senior Brother Che, Senior Sister Mingruo, and Mr. Qing Wei have found out that the person who intercepted the letter is related to the Great Elder. The Lord invites you two to go to the main hall to discuss matters."
"Yeah." Jun Che nodded slightly.
"This man is probably of no use anymore, do you want to keep him?" On the first day of the year, he looked at Huangfu Xiong who couldn't help vomiting blood. If the bleeding stopped, he probably wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
"Lock him up first." Mingruo took out a bottle of hemostatic medicine from his 'sleeve pocket' and said, "Take one pill every hour. If his father comes to save him, it will save us the trouble of searching everywhere."
"Yes." Huangfu Xiong didn't know anything. Chu Yi felt that his father probably didn't take him seriously and it was unlikely that he would come to save people.
