Chapter VII: Cracking the Gongcha Case

Half a month later.

Yang Ming lived up to his expectations, made the white paper zuò, and named it Tianhou paper.

Wu Zetian was so happy that he immediately rewarded him and turned him from a temporarily appointed papermaking supervisor to a waiter in the Ministry of Works.

During this period, Ruifeng Tea House's Qingxin Tea has been sold out, and it has started selling its own roasted tea.

Business is on fire.

Yang Ming's fame also gradually spread in Luoyang City, not only among the literati, but also among the common people in the market.

On this day, Yin Ruiji came to meet Yang Ming again, a joy of fish and water, and relieved the pain of lovesickness.

After sending Yin Ruiji away, Yang Ming went to visit Yuanzhen with a few pieces of imperial nutrition.

"The villain Huo Yi visited Yang Shilang. "The one who came out to receive Yang Ming was Huo Yi, who was dressed as a housekeeper, this person did some disguise, and took care of his eyebrows and beard, if you don't look carefully, you really can't recognize him.

"Yang received the grace of the saint, rewarded a few supplements, and specially came to visit Yuan Gongzi, I wonder if your young owner's body can recover?" Yang Ming glanced at him without a trace.

"Thank you, Lord Yang, for your trouble. It's really unfortunate that our young owner went on a study tour three days ago and is no longer in Beijing. After the young owner returns to Beijing, the villain will definitely convey the greetings of the adults on his behalf. Huo Yidao.

"Going out to study, it seems that your son-in-law's illness is cured, I wonder how many days he will be going to study?" Yang Ming said.

"This, the young owner has never said, and the villain doesn't know. Huo Yidao.

"Okay, Yang will come back another day. Yang Ming stood up and left.

Huo Yi looked at Yang Ming's back and couldn't help frowning.

Back at home, Yang Ming found a few boxes of bird's tongue tea from a pile of offerings and took it to visit the imperial physician Wang Pu.

The residence of the imperial physician Wang Pu is in the eastern suburbs of Luoyang, in a very ordinary house. This person is a typical medical idiot, with a very strange temper, in addition to his imaginary attachment to various difficult diseases, he doesn't care about other things at all, and it is precisely because of this character that Wang Pu has unparalleled medical skills.

A-a-a-a-

Yang Ming knocked on the wooden door.

Squeak.

A little fat man who looked like a winter melon opened the courtyard door, glanced at Yang Ming, and said, "Who are you?"

Yang Ming arched his hand and said: "Yang Ming, who is serving in the lower engineering department, has something to come to Doctor Wang." ”

The little fat man turned around and walked towards the courtyard and shouted, "Master, someone is looking for you." ”

Wang Pu has a strange personality, and several of his apprentices are not normal, and they all look a little nervous.

No one greeted him, so Yang Ming took the initiative to follow the little fat man into the courtyard.

Wang Pu was doing research on an old operating table in the room, and when he heard the little fat man's shout, he turned around and said, "Who are you?"

Yang Ming said: "Yang Ming, who is a waiter in the lower labor department, has seen Imperial Doctor Wang. ”

As he spoke, he also glanced at Wang Pu. The man was unkempt, ragged, and his head and beard were a mess, covering most of his face, as if he hadn't taken care of it for years, and he looked like a man named Hanako.

The most frightening thing is that his left hand turned out to be a beast claw covered with black hair. If the murderer walks out in this dress, it is not surprising that he is beaten to death as a savage.

Wang Pu scratched his face and said strangely: "Are you the waiter of the Ministry of Works?

Yang Ming said: "The original waiter of the Ministry of Works is Lord Liu, and now he has been transferred to the Ministry of Households. ”

Wang Pu glanced at Yang Ming and said, "You're not sick, let's go, I'm busy." ”

Yang Ming said: "I know that I am not sick, and I came to you today for something else." ”

Wang Pu waved his hand without looking back, and said, "I'm not free now, you can come back another day." ”

Yang Ming didn't care either, and said, "No, this is a big deal, you have to help me." ”

Wang Pu said: "No matter how big the matter is, it is not as important as the current thing!"

It can be seen that this person does not like to deal with people in the officialdom very much.

Yang Ming said: "This matter is related to the life and death of more than 1,000 officials in the entire court, and it is related to the safety of the emperor and the queen, I don't know if it matters?"

"What!"

Wang Pu turned around and jumped over, stretched out his unkempt head in front of Yang Ming, stared at him and said, "Don't be alarmist. Although his temper was strange, he was not mad yet, and he was shocked to hear such a thing.

Yang Ming said: "How dare Yang joke about this kind of thing. Believe it or not, you check this thing first, and you'll know. ”

Wang Pu said: "Bird's tongue tea?"

Yang Ming nodded and said, "Yes, it is the sparrow tongue tea of the Qingxin Tea House." The tea is an imperial offering, and I suspect that someone has poisoned the tea. ”

"Let me see. ”

Wang Pu also knew the importance of the matter, so he immediately took out the sparrow tongue tea and used an exclusive secret technique to lure the tea into toxicity.

After about a pillar of incense, Wang Pu shouted: "Sure enough, there is a problem, someone has been tricked in the tea." ”

"Of course there is a Gu, otherwise what would I be looking for you for. ”

Yang Ming thought in his heart, suddenly heard a birdsong, and looked up at the sky.

In the sky, birds and geese are circling.

It is a bird that inhabits the waters of the East Island and has a unique sensitivity to dung beetles. When dung beetles appear, the eagle hovers overhead.

A thin apprentice who looked like a bamboo pole stared at the little insect in the urn and asked curiously, "Master, what kind of Gu is this?"

"Let me look it up. ”

Wang Pu immediately ran to the study to flip through the medical books.

This time, his degree was very fast, and in less than half a cup of tea, his voice sounded in the study: "It turned out to be a dung beetle, a strange Gu in the middle of the year! With the tea soup entering the human body, it strengthens people's muscles and bones at the beginning, and makes people energetic, but as long as they do it, they will definitely die." What a Gu, what a Gu!"

"Dung beetles?"

Yang Ming made a nervous look and said: "This is the imperial tribute, if the royal family in the court uses this tea, then the court is in danger." Is there a way for Imperial Physician Wang to heal him?"

"Let me look it up. ”

Wang Pu hurriedly ran to the study again.

Half an hour later, Yang Ming came to the palace.

"Ridiculous!"

Wu Zetian listened to Yang Ming's report and sneered: "How do you know that there is Gu in this tea?"

Yang Ming said: "Empress Yu, the minister also runs a teahouse in Luoyang City, and has some dealings with Qingxin Teahouse. Half a month ago, the young proprietor of the Qingxin Tea Workshop, Yuan Zhen, behaved a little abnormally, and today he went out to study and lost his trace. Chen had some doubts in his heart, Yuan Zhen had no signs of going out to study before, and there was a chance that there would be an accident. The minister dared to speculate that if someone wanted to be unfavorable to Yuanzhen, the plan must be a sparrow's tongue. Therefore, the minister took the bird's tongue tea to find the imperial physician Wang Pu, and after a thorough examination by the imperial physician, it was confirmed that there was Gu in this tea. At two o'clock every day, the Gu sufferer will feel abnormal in the abdomen, if there is a foreign body squirming, so that the body is weak and weak. You need to take the finch tongue tea to feel the body lì rejuvenation. ”

"The Luoyang royal family, more than 1,200 people, almost everyone drinks the tongue of the bird, if you drink it, you will fall into the Gu, is it possible that the people who are under the Gu will slaughter my royal family and destroy my Tang Dynasty. Wu Zetian still didn't fully believe him.

"I think that's exactly what the bandits meant. ”

Yang Ming said: "According to the diagnosis of Imperial Physician Wang, this Gu is a thousand-year-old strange Gu dung beetle. At first, the Gu Collector felt strong and energetic, but as long as he did it, he would definitely die. ”

Wu Zetian said: "Since Wang Pu has decided, what about others?"

Yang Ming said: "The imperial doctor had a strange disease, and he was afraid of colliding with the queen, so he didn't come with the ministers." "Wang Pu has changed a beast claw for himself, and it is indeed not suitable to enter the palace in the past few months. If he faced the saint, maybe before he could say anything, he was pulled out and cut by Wu Zetian.

Wu Zetian reprimanded: "Ridiculous!"

"If the queen still doesn't believe it, find someone to try. ”

Yang Ming said: "I have a detoxification decoction prepared by the imperial physician here, as long as a minister who has drunk the sparrow tongue tea is summoned into the palace and let him take the decoction, in an hour, the Gu worm will definitely appear." ”

"Okay, this palace will believe you once. If things are as you say, there is a reward. Wu Zetian glanced at him lightly and said, "If not, even if you are from this palace, you will not be spared." ”

"Summoning Ding Yuanda into the palace. ”

It didn't take long for Ding Yuanda's inverted lintel to come to the East Palace.

"The minister is far from the queen, and the mother is a thousand years old. Ding Yuanda's face was full of red light, and his face was happy, completely unaware that he was called in to be a white mouse.

Wu Zetian said: "Flat." ”

Ding Yuan Avenue: "Queen Xie." ”

Wu Zetian said: "This palace summoned you to the palace today, just to ask you, have you taken Sparrow Tongue Tea recently?"

Ding Yuan Avenue: "Yes." Weichen recently took Queckle Tea, only to feel energetic, strong and healthy, presumably because the tea cyanine has been improved, the effect is very good. ”

Yang Ming said: "Lord Ding, this is a new body tonic soup developed by the imperial physician Wang Pu, and the medicinal effect is even better than that of the bird's tongue tea. ”

Ding Yuan was suspicious: "Body tonic medicinal soup?"

Wu Zetian said: "Ding Qing's family, every time Zihai is at two o'clock, whether he has abdominal discomfort, he needs to take sparrow tongue tea to recover his body." ”

Ding Yuanda showed a slinged face and said: "If you go back to Niangniang, it is true, but if you insist on using tea, your body will be strengthened a lot." ”

Wu Zetian said: "Then Ding Qing hurried to drink this medicinal soup, this is to test the medicine for the emperor." ”

Ding Yuan was overjoyed, grinning and shouting, "Weichen understands." ”

A eunuch brought the medicinal soup.

Ding Yuanda took the golden soup and smelled it, almost fainted, and said, "This smell...... Why is it so fishy?"

Yang Ming said: "Lord Ding, this body-tonic medicine not only strengthens the body, but also makes a man vigorous, you know?"

Ding Yuan's eyes lit up suddenly, and he hurriedly picked up the golden soup and drank it, and shouted in his mouth: "Inherit the gift of the queen's mother." ”

Wu Zetian asked, "Is this really a good medicine?"

Yang Ming said: "Well, let's wait for Weichen to explain it to Niangniang later." ”

Wu Zetian snorted: "Is there anything you can't say?"

Yang Ming said: "Okay, this is actually a child's urine." ”

"Eunuch urine?" Ding Yuanda's face immediately changed, and he vomited: "Yang Shilang, I have no grudge against you, why do you want to ......?"

Yang Ming said: "Don't be angry, Lord Ding, you will know the reason after an hour." ”

"You, you ......"

"Wait an hour. ”

Wu Zetian decided the matter in one word.

An hour later, Ding Yuan became ill.
