In the scorching summer, what people are most looking forward to is a calming downpour, so people are chattering in their mouths and praying in their hearts, and finally they are looking forward to this rain.

On the second day, the showers stopped at the beginning, and the tips of the plant leaves were carrying crystal droplets, washing away the summer heat for a month, and the whole Yanjing was full of refreshing and pleasant atmosphere.

There is an antidote, after taking a few patches, Mo Chenghuan obviously felt that his body had begun to gradually recover, and it was rare to go to bed three times a day, and after getting up and grooming, it was already lunchtime.

After lunch, Mo Chenghuan and the three of them took a bowl of decoction, Mo Chenghuan specially asked Ning Xiang to prepare good tea and snacks Mo Chenghuan calmly tasted tea and painted, waiting for He Qingxue to arrive.

Ning Xiang was waiting for the pen and ink on the side, muttering vigorously in her heart, with a bitter face.

"Don't be sad, others don't look good," Mo Chenghuan blamed in his mouth, but he didn't mean to blame in his heart.

"How can there be anyone else here, then He Qingxue won't come, you shouldn't give her this opportunity when you come to the master, I don't know how good it is to give Qi Miaoren such a good opportunity," Ning Xiang looked at her master and was angry, and she couldn't help but feel angry in her heart, and He Qingxue If she didn't have some inspiration in her head, she wouldn't even be a new show girl in their eyes.

"Don't break the master's mouth behind her back, no matter how bad she is, she is still the master, and if something happens like this in the future, I won't be able to save you. Mo Chenghuan twisted his brows, and his face showed displeasure.

"Got it," Ning Xiang reluctantly agreed.

"Master, He Miaoren has arrived," Jin Su, who was waiting for He Qingxue at the door at Mo Chenghuan's orders, walked quickly to Mo Chenghuan's side and whispered.

"Okay, let them in," Mo Chenghuan put down his pen and ink, and when he looked up, he saw He Qingxue who had already walked in.

walked in without waiting for the communication, which shows that He Qingxue is impatient at this time.

"Go down. Mo Chenghuan waved his hand to let Ning Xiang and Jin Su retreat.

He Qingxue also gave Forsythia a look, Forsythia was reluctant but still honestly retreated with Ning Xiang.

"I'll come over at the time you set," He Qingxue couldn't hold back the excitement in her heart, and her hands and feet trembled with nervousness.

"He Miaoren doesn't have to be so nervous, take a sip of tea, and I'll explain the matter for you one by one. "Why did Mo Chenghuan pour a tea on Qingxue.

He Qingxue was infected by Mo Chenghuan's calmness, and the surging emotions in her heart slowly eased.

Mo Chenghuan considered the entire North Palace, and didn't have so much time to wait for her to explain the details one by one, but simply told He Qingxue about the situation.

"Why don't you expose Lu Huiyan yourself?" He Qingxue can also distinguish the huge benefits in this after listening to it roughly, such a big benefit Mo Chenghuan is a smart person, there is no reason to give it to others.

"I'm not in time yet, you still have Rui Guifeibao, the entire faction behind me is alone, and if I come out at an inappropriate time, it will only affect the interests of everyone in the faction behind me, so that you owe me a favor, that is, I get the maximum benefit from it." Mo Chenghuan did not shy away from confessing his situation to He Qingxue.

He Qingxue's fragrant brows carried heavy doubts, no matter what Mo Chenghuan said, she was still very wary of Mo Chenghuan because of the incident in Chunfeng Garden.

"If you don't want to accept my feelings, you can turn around and leave, but I just want to ask, since you still don't believe me, why did you go to my appointment on time?" He Qingxue's condition Mo Chenghuan can understand, it doesn't mean that she has enough patience, why Qingxue dispelled her worries one by one.

"Mo Chenghuan, I believe you once, if this time I can really get the emperor's favor as you say, then I owe you an adult please, in the future, as long as the conditions you put forward do not threaten the Xue faction, I will do my best to repay you for this great kindness," He Qingxue had two of her own hearts and kept arguing, but in the end she still lost all to the benefits.

She's been calm for a long time, and now what's wrong with her.

"Okay, since you agreed, then our deal is established, now as long as you walk out of Qi Yuxuan, then Lu Huiyan's matter, I am just an outsider," He Qingxue hesitated again, and Mo Chenghuan quickly doubted whether he believed the wrong person.

After He Qingxue left, the terrifying smell wafted into Qi Yuxuan again, Mo Chenghuan was dizzy and uncomfortable, and he didn't dare to take the antidote, for fear that the Criminal Procuratorate would send someone down to check the situation at that time, and the people in each courtyard were poisoned, and their courtyard was as safe as that Fengtang Pavilion, so it was not to be dealt with by the same party.

He Qingxue's efficiency was terrifying, and it took less than a day to understand the situation, and she alarmed the inner chamberlain at night, saying that He Qingxue was unwell and invited her own doctor to see her, and it turned out that she was poisoned, or it was poisoned blindly called wilting grass.

There are not many people who know about this wilting grass, but there are many interests in the palace hospital, and the old lady doctor who is a little older knows a thing or two, this wilting grass comes from Jingde, it is a highly toxic herb that blindly erodes people's spleen and damages people's nerves, and it was sold in the market in the early years, but because someone used this medicine to poison the emperor's own brother, the first emperor was angry and ordered that from then on, anyone who sells or uses this poisonous weed will be punished with death.

Later, this poisonous weed disappeared in the thunder, and gradually it was forgotten, and now someone dares to make this herb into incense and spread it in Jinbi City, which is simply bold!

The inner chamberlain felt that the matter was getting bigger, and hurriedly sent the criminal procuratorate responsible for investigating the criminal situation in the palace to investigate, but it was nothing if he didn't investigate, and this investigation knew that the poisoning was He Qingxue's hospital, and the entire northern city, all the courtyards were poisoned by this wilting grass, and they had been poisoned for several days after being inquired, and they were all poisoned into the internal organs.

The Criminal Procuratorate understood that this criminal case was too involved and that it did not have so much power, so it secretly visited the Holy Father before the matter spread.

In the secret investigation, I don't know what method He Qingxue used, but she actually led the people from the Criminal Procuratorate directly to Fengtang Pavilion, at that time, Fengtang Pavilion had not received any rumors, and before she could dispose of the incense powder of the wilting grass, she was arrested by the Criminal Procuratorate.

Fengtang Pavilion and others were taken down on the spot, and a large number of spices mixed with wilting grass were seized in Fengtang Pavilion.

It is worth mentioning that this large-scale medical consultation made Lou Yuyu out of the limelight again, and those experienced old doctors all praised Lou Yuyu for doing things well.

As a new doctor who has entered the palace, Lou Yuyu's limelight is too ostentatious, and people can't help but wonder if he did it on purpose.

Of course, this is just a small episode, and people forget about it all the next day, just because it is the culprit of this whole thing - Lu Huiyan is the real protagonist.

A few days after Lu Huiyan was arrested, she probably couldn't resist the torture, and finally confessed, but she didn't reveal anything about the person who provided her withered grass, and just blindly admitted all the crimes.

The saint didn't seem to have the intention of pursuing it, and made a judgment according to the situation, with the imperial decree of the emperor first, this crime of using wilting grass was unforgivable, and Lu Huiyan also tried to poison the entire northern city, and the crime was added to the first degree, and he was ordered to be crucified.

Crucifixion is one of the most cruel capital punishments in Canglei, nailing is to tie people to a pillar and crucify them alive, on the day of the execution, Dongtianji and Sima Yi were present, and ordered that all beauties with rank must watch the execution together, which is clearly killing chickens and monkeys, this is telling every beautie, not too ambitious, otherwise it will end up with Lu Huiyan.

There were as many as 100 people watching the execution, and the whole execution platform was surrounded, Dong Tianji and Sima Yi and Qiu Shengxi sat at the front, and the three of them formed a circle with the palace concubines and eunuchs who were waiting, followed by Concubine Mei, Concubine Li and other concubines above the third grade, so layer by layer, and the last layer was Mo Chenghuan.

"The time has come!" Liu Haizhi, vice president of the Criminal Procuratorate, shouted loudly.

With a thick gong sound, a bamboo curtain was lowered on the execution table, and the process of nailing was too bloody, so that the beauties present were afraid to endure it, so Sima Yi arranged for someone to use the bamboo curtain to block everyone's sight.

"Ah!! what's wrong with me?!Is there a reason why someone else can harm me, but I can't hurt others?!"

"Why did they ruin my life, I just let them suffer, and I have to be treated like this!!"

“......”

Every time he nails a nail, Lu Huiyan will let out a miserable scream, and that scream containing resentment will hit people's hearts and shock the souls of everyone here.

Mo Chenghuan listened below, his hands involuntarily clenched his clothes, until the finger joints came from the scream, and the sound seemed to penetrate her soul and make her heart tormented.

Lu Huiyan's accusations were all directed at him, and it was his own plan to make the emperor disgusted with Lu Huiyan, which made Lu Huiyan have a distorted idea, so he made an extreme act of wanting to poison the entire northern city.

Lu Huiyan's screams lasted for half an hour, as if the screams of the heart and gall were broken, which made people tremble.

Probably Dongtianji couldn't stand it, and before the execution was completed, he left in a hurry with Sima Yi and Qiu Shengxi, this kind of miserable and tragic scene, no one would stay for long, if it wasn't for seeing Dongtianji in that town, Lu Hui developed the first scream, and the people would have fled a long time ago, and now even Dongtianji is gone, everyone doesn't hurry up and disperse.

In the end, only Mo Chenghuan and Qi Yu sat until the execution was completed.

A total of 9,981 copper nails were to be punished, and after receiving 81 copper nails, in order to ensure that the sin could die thoroughly, the copper nails were pulled out one by one and then exposed to the sun for seven days.

The crowd dispersed, and the officials on the execution platform shouted: "Seventy ......"

Qi Yu sat next to Mo Chenghuan. Tremblingly, he took Mo Chenghuan's equally trembling hand, and tried to calm down before he said with palpitations: "Let's go back." ”

"I don't have the strength to stand up. Mo Chenghuan only felt as if his strength had been taken away by something, and he couldn't move, so he could only watch the execution in the end.

"I'll help you. Qi Yu reluctantly raised the strength to escape, wanting to take Mo Chenghuan to escape from this terrible ghost place.

"You go, she has received the punishment she deserves, and I will accept the punishment I deserve, as the initiator of the whole thing. Mo Chenghuan felt guilty about Lu Huiyan, and she blamed Lu Huiyan's results on herself.

"It has nothing to do with you, it's all her own fault," Qi Yu couldn't understand why Mo Chenghuan would take this kind of thing on himself.

"You go back first," Mo Chenghuan didn't want to think so, but deep down in her heart, she never wanted to let go of herself.

Mo Chenghuan refused to say more, stopped persuading, and did not leave, but quietly accompanied Mo Chenghuan until the end of the execution.

"Miaoren, let's leave first, the next thing is to remove the nails, the scene is too bloody, and the lower officials are afraid of staining Miaoren's eyes. Liu Haizhi walked down from the execution table and persuaded the pale Mo Chenghuan and Qi Yu.

The vice president of the dignified Criminal Procuratorate, the third-grade official actually claimed to be a subordinate official in front of Mo Chenghuan, which shows that Mo Chenghuan's status is extraordinary, and he wants to come here to Liu Haizhi is a person under the banner of the king.

"Thank you Vice Dean Liu for reminding me," Mo Chenghuan was so frightened that he still had a little consciousness left to apologize to Liu Haizhi.

Qi Yu helped Mo Chenghuan up, and all the palace ladies also surrounded him.

Ning Xiang and Jin Su themselves were also frightened by Lu Huiyan's crucification, but seeing that Mo Chenghuan almost struggled to stand up, he still stepped forward to serve out of instinct.

"No, I'll do it. Qi Yu brushed away the incense, Jin Su wanted to take Mo Chenghuan's hand, and personally helped Mo Chenghuan to go out.

"This Liu Haizhi is the person who protects the king?" As far as she knows, most of the people who protect the king are officers, but there are also people who protect the king in the palace.

"No, the Xue family, it's just that this Liu Haizhi was my father's escort back then, and later he was appreciated by Prime Minister Xue and wanted to go, my father was not only not annoyed, but also specially wrote a letter of recommendation, so that he has today's official position, so he respects my father very much. Qi Yu is willing to stay by her side and be her companion even in the terrible scene of crucifixion, so it doesn't matter if this bit of gossip is told to Qi Yu.

Qi Yu nodded, fell silent, and the two separated when they left the Criminal Procuratorate together, Qi Yu's Baiweitang and Mo Chenghuan's Qi Yuxuan were in two different directions, so they naturally walked separately, and the two of them took a small sedan chair and swayed all the way back to the dormitory.

Back in the dormitory, Ning Xiang and Jinsu were busy finding grapefruit leaves to bathe Mo Chenghuan to get bad luck.

Mo Chenghuan sat in the courtyard as if he had been hit by a magic obstacle, looking at a corner with empty eyes.

Under the service of those and Jin Su, it was already dusk after taking a bath, and Ning Xiang was busy going to give Mo Chenghuan a meal, and Mo Chenghuan, who had been silent like a puppet before going out, finally opened his mouth.

"Remember to bring some tasty side dishes, I want to have some wine. Mo Chenghuan's face was still not good, and he couldn't see some blood.

Ning Xiang should go out as soon as she leaves, she can also understand Mo Chenghuan's mood at this time, today's beauties who left early were all frightened by Lu Huiyan's screams, and they didn't care about nothing, but that scene was too shocking, no one could calm down after watching the punishment, let alone talk about Mo Chenghuan who was sentenced to the end.

Ning Xiang asked the imperial chef to make a few appetizers for Mo Chenghuan, and prepared a pot of wine for Mo Chenghuan, Mo Chenghuan didn't move a mouthful of food, and drank a pot of wine alone until late at night.
