Tang Ning left the Yang Shen Temple, separated from Wei Jian, walked through a certain palace, and passed through the corner of a long corridor, and a figure in front of him was already waiting.

Looking at the palace woman in front of him, Tang Ning stopped and arched his hand: "I've seen Concubine Niangniang." ”

Concubine Shu held her hands and said, "Tang Xiang doesn't have to be polite. ”

She smiled slightly and asked, "Have you seen Your Majesty?" ”

Tang Ning nodded and said, "I've seen it." ”

Concubine Fang Shu's expression was a little gloomy, and she said, "The world is unpredictable, I didn't expect Your Majesty's body to ...... so quickly."

Tang Ning said: "Mother's Day mourning." ”

"If Your Majesty has something, Concubine Tang Hui is afraid that she will not let go of our mother and son at the first time." Concubine Fang Shu wiped the corners of her eyes, collected her mood, looked at him again, and said, "This official and Yuan'er are trapped in the palace and can't go out, so I will ask Tang Xiang to help outside......"

Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "Helping Niangniang is helping me ......"

After Tang Ning left the palace, in a certain hall of the harem, Concubine Tang Hui was furious.

The eunuchs and maids in the palace stood tremblingly in the hall, and they didn't dare to make a sound.

"This evil seed dares to speak to this official like this!"

"The surname Wei, a dead eunuch, actually dares to go against this palace!"

……

Thinking of what had just happened in front of the Cultivation Temple, she was even more angry in her heart, and smashed everything she saw in front of her.

A palace maid hurriedly walked in from the outside and said, "Niangniang, Niangniang......"

Concubine Tang Hui looked at her, lowered her face and said, "Say, what did Your Majesty say to him?" ”

The palace maid said: "Your Majesty told him to make His Royal Highness King Duan the crown prince, let him assist His Highness wholeheartedly, and gave him a dragon whip ......"

"Whip the dragon?" Concubine Tang Hui snorted coldly and said, "I really think that with the dragon whip, you can do whatever you want, when Ming'er takes the throne, it will be your death!" ”

She looked at the palace maid and asked, "What else did Your Majesty say?" ”

The palace maid looked at her and said, "Your Majesty also said that he originally wanted to pass on the throne to King Run......"

"I knew it!" Concubine Tang Hui's face sank, and she said: "That slut let Zhao Yuan pretend to be filial, he must not have any good intentions!" ”

Knowing this, the trace of guilt in her heart towards Emperor Chen disappeared without a trace in an instant, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a sneer, and said: "It seems that this move is really right......

……

When Tang Ning left the harem and walked towards the imperial gate, his footsteps suddenly stopped and looked behind a pillar somewhere.

A figure walked out from behind the pillar and saw his face clearly, Tang Ning was suddenly shocked in his heart: "It's you!" ”

The man smiled and said, "Lord Tang still remembers this official......

Tang Ning looked at Han Ming, the former household servant who should have died, and subconsciously said, "Are you a human or a ghost?" ”

Although he is an atheist, this kind of thing happened to him through the crossing, and what else is impossible.

Even so, he was taken aback when someone who had been dead for several years appeared in front of him.

Han Ming said: "Although Han deserves to die, His Majesty is merciful and spared the life of the criminal minister back then......"

Emperor Chen's benevolence was the biggest joke Tang Ning heard today, but he was not interested in arguing with Han Ming about this, knowing that he was a human or not a ghost, his heart completely settled down.

Han Ming looked at him with a different color on his face, and said, "Han never thought that Lord Tang would be able to sit in such a high position in such a short period of time......"

Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "It's just luck......"

"Luck is also a kind of skill, the luck that can make His Majesty trust so much, only Lord Tang has."

When he said this, his tone suddenly changed, and he said: "It's just that King Duan is about to ascend the throne, I don't know how Lord Tang wants to deal with himself?" ”

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "What does Lord Han want to say?" ”

"There are no eternal enemies." Han Ming looked at him and said, "Lord Tang is young, he is already the right minister of the dynasty, and he will definitely go down in history in the future, so why bother to go against King Duan and get into a dead end?" ”

Tang Ning smiled and said, "But my enemies don't think so......"

"Then Master Tang has to take a step back first." Han Ming looked at him and said: "Losing Lord Tang is a loss for the court and the country, Han is also thinking about Lord Tang, I hope Lord Tang will think about Han's words, there are some things Han Mou can see more clearly, after all, Han Mou is already a person who has died once......"

Tang Ning glanced at him, shook his head, and said, "Who isn't?" ”

……

Han Ming's matter was just an episode, no matter what his position was, whether it was a real admonition or an ulterior motive, Tang Ning didn't care.

He walked out of the palace and put the matter behind him.

Emperor Chen's movements were very fast, and not long after Tang Ning returned home, he had someone send a dragon whip.

Zhong Mingli looked at the golden whip, his face showed shock, and he said in disbelief: "This is ......"

Tang Ning nodded and said, "It's a dragon whip." ”

Zhong Mingli's face was shocked, and he hurriedly took two steps forward to check this legendary thing.

The dragon whip was created by Gaozu, but no courtier has ever had it, and legend has it that those who have this whip can beat the king unconscious, and beat the traitorous ministers, and the ministers who are not respected and respected cannot have it.

When Zhong Mingli carefully looked at the dragon whip, Ah Duo walked in with a large bag in his hand, and when he saw the whip in his hand, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Brother Tang, this golden whip is so beautiful......

Whipping the dragon is the highest power given by the emperor to a courtier, naturally will not be fooled, this whip is made of gold, please be the most skilled craftsman, carved dragon and phoenix, looks very beautiful.

Tang Ning looked at the big bag in Ah Duo's hand, smiled, and said, "Went out to buy things again?" ”

As a girl from the mountains, a few days after coming to Beijing, she was lost in the prosperity and richness of Beijing, Tang Ning gave her a silver ticket of 10,000 taels, these days she went out shopping almost every day, although most of the things bought back were useless, but as long as she was happy, Tang Ning also went with her.

After a while, her excitement will pass, and she will return to normal.

After his father-in-law finished reading it, Tang Ning threw the golden whip to Ah Duo to play with, and was about to ask her if she was still used to it in Jingshi, as if she had noticed something, she suddenly turned her head and looked at the four elders who came to him and kept sniffing something, and was shocked: "What are you doing?" ”

I don't know when, the fourth elder actually walked behind him, an old face was only an inch away from his body, and he kept sniffing something with his nose, no matter how he looked at it, there was a perverted smell......

Being sniffed like this by an old woman who was over the age of six, Tang Ning shuddered in his heart, couldn't help but shiver, and hurriedly took a few steps back.

At this time, the fourth elder looked up at him and wondered, "You used soothing incense?" ”

Tang Ning looked at her and asked, "What soothing incense?" ”

The four elders said: "A strange fragrance in Qiandi, colorless and tasteless, use it in moderation, it can calm the nerves and help sleep, once it is excessive, it will become a deadly poisonous incense......"

Tang Ning glanced at her and said, "You can smell colorless and odorless things, are you a dog's nose?" ”

The Four Elders explained, "Although the tranquilizer incense is colorless and odorless, it has always been mixed with other incense, and it will change the taste of the original incense......

Tang Ning skimmed the four elders and said, "The poisonous incense you said, why is it not recorded in the Ten Thousand Gu Poison Sutra?" ”

Tang Ning, like Su Mei, is familiar with the Ten Thousand Gu Poison Sutra, and ordinary poisonous Gu can't hide from his eyes at all.

The four elders glanced at him and said, "Because this poisonous incense was created by me more than ten years ago......

"You have nothing to do to create such a scourge ......" Tang Ning looked at the four elders and stopped abruptly before he finished his sentence.

He suddenly remembered that in the palace where Emperor Chen was located, a lot of incense seemed to be used, this was because Emperor Chen had insomnia and dreams, and he needed to use it to help him sleep.

A few months ago, Tang Ning had discovered that Emperor Chen was using an incense that he had never smelled before, and it was the same as the fragrance he had smelled in the Temple of the Cultivation God today.

The smell of his body should be the smell of incense.

All along, Downing thought it was just a rare spice from foreign tribute, and he didn't suspect anything......

Now it seems that Emperor Chen has been using a lot of the soothing incense that the four elders said in the past few months?

That is, he was not seriously ill, but poisoned?
