Chapter 1123 This is Strange

The guards were still searching outside the house without missing any clues.

Lu Mingyong found the right opportunity to open the door of the secret room, and threw the mysterious man out with him.

Outside the house, Jinwu Guard saluted in unison: "Greetings to Duke Yue."

Lu Mingyong said coldly: "Why are you so careless? You don't even look at the Liang?"

A guard argued: "Sir, we have all searched and have not seen any trace of the assassin."

Lu Mingyong snorted lightly: "What is this? This person was hiding on the beam of the house just now. If I hadn't heard the news, the evil man would have slipped away from under your nose!"

Jinwuwei said carefully: "Sir, what we have just hunted down seems to be a woman..."

Lu Mingyong sneered: "It seems that you are not sure, and you still dare to question me? Do you want to say that I have arrested the wrong person, right?"

Jinwu Guard hurriedly said, "I dare not!"

Lu Mingyong's eyes were sharp and he glanced at everyone, saying, "I don't know if the evil people have any accomplices. They all returned to their posts and stepped up patrols, and did not miss any suspicious places!"

The Jinwu Guards said in unison: "Yes!"

When everyone dispersed, Lu Mingyong took the mysterious man and went directly to the place where he was on duty in the palace.

Seeing that all the guards had dispersed, Lan Lingling quietly took them out of the secret room, and then took her route where she often entered and exited the imperial city and rushed out of the palace.

During this period, I was almost discovered by the guards several times. The whole process was frightened, but fortunately I was shocked and safe.

When she left the palace, it was almost five o'clock.

The court officials' carriages and horses came to the palace gate one after another.

Lan Lingling looked around and finally saw the carriage from Taishu Mansion slowly coming.

She didn't care much and directly stopped the frame. Then she pushed Ah Liu away and quickly got into the carriage.

"Your Highness, save Ace!"

Changsun Tao narrowed his eyes: "What's going on?"

Lan Lingling said anxiously: "Tonight I went to the palace to look for Ace, and I ran into a mysterious man with a very similar figure to the King of Wu. When I returned, I saw him sneaking towards Chengming Palace and followed him all the way."

"He wandered around outside Chengming Hall for a few times, and then left. I went to the place where he stopped, but saw the poison under the bricks and stones."

"I was about to relieve the Gu for Ace, but the mysterious man suddenly rushed out and led the guards to hunt me down. Fortunately, Duke Yue saved me, otherwise I would have just given it to the guards."

"By the way, that man has been captured by Duke Yue. It is estimated that Duke Yue is now being tried."

Changsun Tao pondered for a moment and asked, "What kind of poison is that?"

Lan Lingling said: "It's not a high-level poison, but it's very tricky and cruel. When the pot grows up, it will suck the blood of people nearby. It especially loves the blood of young men..."

"The sucking insects are poisonous on their sucking mouth. Those who are sucked will have symptoms of weak wind at the beginning. They often feel dizzy and blurred, and their complexion and lips will show unhealthy paleness."

"Then Immediately, I feel restless, insomnia and dreamy, I can't eat well, I can't sleep well, I can't do anything, until I slowly break the oil and dry the lamp."

"The most terrifying thing is that the imperial doctor can't find any problem and there is no way. Ordinary medicines are completely useless. They can only watch the person who is infected with the Gu's health gets worse and worse."

"Ace often handles state affairs in Chengming Palace. Apart from the patrol guards, he is the only man in Chengming Palace. It seems that someone wants to kill him."

Compared to Lan Lingling's panic, Changsun Tao was calmer. He asked, "Did you watch that person leave with your own eyes?"

Lan Lingling nodded: "I will check it out after I confirm that he left."

Changsun Tao asked again: "But when you went to check it out, he suddenly appeared and attracted the attention of the guards? Tell the guards to chase you?"

Lan Lingling nodded again: "Is there anything strange about this?"

Changsun Tao said: "It's strange. If you are caught by the guards, the Gu poison will not be able to stop it. In this way, the Gu poison will be discovered."

"But he doesn't seem to be afraid of the poison being discovered. Either the poison was not created by him, or his purpose is not on His Majesty, but on you."

Lan Lingling opened her eyes wide: "I? I deserve his efforts to frame him?"

Changsun Tao said: "The matter is not clear yet, so I can only make this guess. If you are caught tonight, then you may be responsible for the crime of slaughter."

Lan Lingling was very angry: "I know this, so I ran away desperately to prevent myself from being caught. The old men in the court had disliked me. If I took this charge, I would be dead!"

Changsun Tao thought for a moment and said, "Can you only solve that poison? Or can anyone do it, just use the right method?"

Lan Lingling said: "Only those who know witch skills can solve it. Recently, Xiao Baili has been practicing witch skills. If it were him, I think there is no problem."

Changsun Tao said: "You should not appear in the palace to avoid being recognized, as your Majesty will be embarrassed by that time."

"You go to Mr. Baili first, tell him the method of removing the Gu, and ask him to bring Tai Shu Concubine's token to find me. I will let him remove the Gu poison, so don't worry."

Lan Lingling nodded solemnly, lifted the curtain, pushed Aliu away again, and then quickly ran to Tai Shu Mansion.

Ah Liu rolled his eyes: "Miss Lingling is really stupid or fake. The carriage is empty. After the master gets off the carriage, wouldn't she be faster when she returns home by carriage?"

Changsun Tao said: "Then why didn't you remind me earlier?"

Ah Liu shrugged: "Who asked her to push me!"

Changsun Tao glanced at Ah Liu indifferently, lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage, and entered the palace with the crowd to attend the court meeting.

The five drums climb the Ming Dynasty, the East and the West, and the squad stands in a row.

Emperor Yuanwu yawned, walked out of the back hall, and forced himself to go to court.

There is no major event recently. The abnormal movements of the Western Rong and the captives of Guiyan City are all clichés.

The minister in charge of this matter reported it, Emperor Wu of Yuan responded to a few words, and the matter was exposed.

Another minister reported on the spring farming situation. Emperor Wu of Yuan urged me to take care of my work, and this matter was revealed.

Finally, the Minister of Works proposed that summer was approaching and local water conservancy needs to be built. The ministers discussed this matter for a long time, but the Minister of Revenue ended the issue with the words "the national treasury is empty."

Emperor Wu of Yuan said: "Feng Xiang is ill and has not been able to attend court in recent days. The Ministry of Works will first draw a charter and send it to Feng Xiang for inspection. If there is no problem, after Feng Xiang recovers from illness and discusses with the Ministry of Revenue, then decide whether to implement it and how to implement it."

The ministers discussed for nearly half an hour before the court meeting ended.

Seeing that Lu Mingyong and Mr. Feng were not around, Emperor Wu of Yuan left Changsun Tao to find out the situation: "Uncle Tai, let's go to Chengming Palace later."

After the court meeting was dispersed, all the ministers went to the place where they were on duty to handle official duties, while Changsun Tao came to Chengming Palace.
