Chapter 0096 Poisonous tree sap sores
The First Emperor was surprised in his heart and frustrated on the surface. As if talking to himself, he said, "It seems...... The fairy told the old fairy, and when the old fairy admonished you, he told you too! These are all true! But I've never told anyone! ”
Yun Xiaoshui listened to the words of the First Emperor, and couldn't help but laugh in his heart, "You didn't tell anyone, but the fairies I sent out are all or will be my daughter-in-law, so they won't fail to report the details to me!" ”
So, Yun Xiaoshui smiled and said, "Hehehe...... Your Majesty! Don't forget, it's a group of Nine Heavens Fairies, and Wei Chen, I'm also a little boy next to the former Heavenly Court Immortals! ”
Qin Shi Huang was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "Xiao Aiqing said that my sores and fairies' spit...... Hehe, isn't it okay to spit on the face? ”
"Nothing to do! Your Majesty's devastation is not a matter of toxins in the body, but of foreign venom. For example, poisonous insects crawl over, such as trees containing poisonous sap scratched by, and so on. ”
"Poisonous insects? Poisonous tree sap? …… Yes? Could it be ......" Qin Shi Huang thought of this, said this, and suddenly changed his face and stopped talking. The black face became darker and darker in an instant, and finally became a purple eggplant face.
No matter how Yun Xiaoshui thought about it, it was difficult to tell what the First Emperor had in mind, but in the end, the First Emperor no longer thought that his devastation was caused by the fairy's punishment.
In Xinning Palace, Qin Shi Huang had just dealt with the sores on his face and hands, and he was basically healed, and he was lying down comfortably on the bamboo chair, with a palace maid serving beside him, and he was seriously thinking about what Yun Xiaoshui told him about the arrow used to scare him in the hands of the fairy.
What the First Emperor saw at that time was the fairy facing the crossbowmen of the Yulin Army under the stage in the distance, and grabbed the void, as if the fairy's white little hand had an extra sharp arrow.
But Yun Xiaoshui said that there were two fairies with sharp arrows in their hands, and the three fairies caught three sharp arrows! The source of the arrow was the assassination of His First Emperor on the periphery of his Imperial Guards, and it turned out that the fairy caught the arrow and saved his life.
"So, there are Assassins, but why don't Assassins have roads? He did not see an arrow shot at him, nor did he even see an arrow shot at him. If a wizard could really have expected an assassin to come, why couldn't he have expected a fairy?
Could it be that this assassin was deliberately arranged by his wizard? If this is the case, then the wizard is in prison, and the person who does this for him can only be someone else, and it should be a person with considerable power, otherwise, it will be difficult to do it.
Yun Xiaoshui, this little guy is really my immortal fortune star, since I have him, I seem to be walking towards the path of cultivating true immortals step by step...... Right! According to him, poisonous insects and poisonous trees...... I know! Come! Go to the Imperial Garden and peel the bark of the flower tree next to the lotus pond and show it to the imperial doctor to test whether it is poisonous! ”
Qin Shi Huang suddenly thought of something, it turned out that when he was climbing flowers and trees in the garden with his concubines, his hands and face were itchy, and he became inflamed after scratching the skin, which was really not caused by fairies. It's just that it happened to worsen the sores after meeting the fairy.
Soon, the chief eunuch in the palace reported to the first emperor about the verification results of the flower trees, the sap of the bark of these flowers and trees was poisonous, and when it touched the hands and faces, it could not only itch, but also festered into sores, and it was not easy to heal.
"I see! Feather Forest Army! Go and arrest the Taishi Ling Wangling! Arrest him alone first and send him to Tingwei! ”
As soon as the First Emperor's edict was sent, an official from Tingwei's side came to report to the First Emperor that the bodies of the seven assassins who had intercepted the master craftsman halfway had been handed over to Tingwei for re-examination. It was found that two of them were soldiers in Taishi Ling's mansion, and they were also guards who often guarded Tai Shi Ling's side.
"Hmph—what does this royal tomb want to do? Don't think that when you become a prince's teacher, you have any ideas! Do you still want to follow in the footsteps of the older guys? and Hu Hai's teacher, Zhao Gao, is a little fluttering! Examine! This time, we must thoroughly investigate the royal tomb! ”
The Qin period was a highly centralized feudal empire, and "everything in the world is decided by the top", that is, the will of Qin Shi Huang is the law, and all political affairs are decided by the emperor's personal autocratic power. Qin Shi Huang had the right to directly try cases, punish them full-time, bow to the literary and ink, personally break the prison, and arbitrarily punish the severity of the case.
At that time, the supreme judicial officer of Qin was called Tingwei, and the institution was also called Tingwei, which was one of the "Nine Qings". Hear the cases assigned by the emperor, and review the difficult cases in each county.
According to later historical records, the judicial officials of the Qin period had rich experience in judicial practice, and at the same time reached a very high level in physiology and forensic science. At that time, the judicial organs had to seal up the scene of investigation and evidence collection and inquest, which was called "sealing and guarding", and then conduct interrogation, that is, interrogation.
The First Emperor immediately ordered the officials in the court to paint images of the corpses of the five remaining unidentified Assassins, and then post them for the people to recognize! This method is very effective, and the first emperor really has a set of cases! After a few days, the identities of the five bodies were all clear.
All of them were mountain people from other counties invited by the other two people, all of whom had very good martial arts, and three of them had also served in the military.
It was the royal tomb that offered the flower tree to the first emperor, and now the sap of the flower tree is poisonous; This faction of killers intercepted Yun Xiaoshui halfway, trying to prevent Yun Xiaoshui from entering the capital to make alchemy for the first emperor, or Wang Ling, both of them are capital crimes, and the capital crime of destroying the whole door is not too much, even if the first emperor is gracious to an old minister like Wang Ling.
Wang Ling's Taishi Mansion was beheaded, and none of the 115 people survived.
Frightened, Li Si, Zhao Gao, Wang Chong and others were like lost dogs, trembling and collectively silent! However, the first emperor still sent Wang Chong to lead people to destroy the royal tombs. Therefore, Wang Ling scolded Li Si, Zhao Gao, and Wang Chong, and cursed them for forming a party for personal gain, scheming and harming others, and they would not die well!
Alas! Anyway, Zhao Gao and Li Si's later deaths were miserable, whether they died or not, Wang Ling couldn't see it, because he died first.
"Hehehe...... Your Majesty - the elixir is ready! The pill is good! On the royal road to the palace, Yun Xiaoshui walked forward with a sandalwood plate covered with red silk cloth in both hands, and added some trotting from time to time. Yu Mingzhu beside him was holding a clay pot in his arms, and he didn't keep up with the meteor in his stride.
With a "snap", Yun Xiaoshui fell and gnawed on the mud. The wooden plate in his hand was thrown far away, and it also fell on the stone slab.
"Oops! How is the young master? Where's the injury? Yu Mingzhu anxiously asked, and the black and white peony flew to the rescue.
"Hmm—empty plates?" Even the black peony in the back didn't know that there was no pill on the plate held by Yun Xiaoshui in his hand, and he thought that the pill was on the plate! I must have finished playing with such a fall, but I didn't expect to fall so much that Yun Xiaoshui bared his teeth, and the pill was fine.
It's not in the wooden plate, it's naturally in the clay pot in Mingzhu's hand. No wonder Yu Mingzhu only cares about people, not about pills! You must know that the pill is the treasure that the first emperor wants, and it is much more precious than people!
Don't pretend! Yun Xiaoshui himself also helped the white peony pounce on the mud on his body, reached out and took the wooden plate handed by the black peony, and carried the silk cloth in his hand and left.
When he came to the palace gate, Yun Xiaoshui carefully took out the small porcelain bowl of Sheng Dan medicine from the clay pot held by Yu Mingzhu and put it on the wooden plate, then covered it with silk cloth, arranged for the guards to stay and wait, and he himself carried the plate into the palace.
