"Chi Ji?" The palace maid asked rhetorically, and then said with a hint of mockery on her face: "The adults must think too highly of me."

"It's okay if you don't admit it" Xiao also glanced at Lu Jian: "With this Gu worm, are you afraid that you won't be able to find the murderer?"

When he came again, Lu Jian had already briefly introduced this love Gu to Xiao Ye.

Lu Jian took out one of the porcelain bottles, walked up to the palace maid, opened the lid of the porcelain bottle, and handed it to an angle where the palace maid could just see the bottom of the bottle.

After the palace maid saw the red Gu worm in the bottle, her face changed.

"If this love Gu wants to make the Gu person fall in love with someone, he must use that person's essence blood to feed the love Gu, and that love Gu worm will only be interested in that person's essence blood," Lu Jian said lightly.

"So, it's not hard to find the real murderer"

After the love Gu is lowered into the body of the middle Gu person, it needs to be fed with the essence blood of the Gu person every half month, so the Gu person must be a close person to Princess Shao Ning.

The palace maid was silent, with a slight look of surprise in her eyes, this love Gu powder was put in the wine by her, on the tip of the needle, if it was not hatched in the body within a day, it would be invalid.

There are not many warlocks and Taoists in this world who understand Gu, but when they find out and find those Taoists, I am afraid that this love Gu fan has long been invalidated, she didn't expect that this weak young lady in front of her would be so proficient in Gu poison.

The palace maid was silent for a moment and asked, "How are you sure that Chi Ji sent me?" ”

"Chi Ji used your family's life to coerce you to poison him for Gu, if you dare to disobey, your family will die without a place to be buried" Xiao also did not answer her question, "If you can cooperate with me, I will help you rescue your family"

A hint of brilliance flashed on the palace maid's face.

The first moment of the unitary time

The noon banquet was held in the main hall, and the evening banquet was set up in the garden, a long table of more than ten meters was placed in the center of the garden, the table was covered with fine golden red pattern silk, dozens of palace maids and eunuchs were placed on the table in a very orderly manner, and a long red carpet was laid under the table, which extended to the next garden.

Around the garden, there are a variety of colorful and precious flower branches, and various lanterns are hung around it.

The most famous troupe in Beijing was also invited, and at this time they were singing songs on the stage in the courtyard.

The ladies of the officials in the garden talked and laughed, so it was not lively.

Inside the main hall

A woman with a veil and a somewhat exotic costume stood in the center of the main hall, and said to the emperor and empress of Tianzhen who were sitting on the throne above the hall: "At the birthday banquet of Princess Shaoning of Tianzhen Kingdom, I Xiliang specially sent congratulatory gifts: ten boxes of sweet rosin, benzoin, and Ruilin incense, one blue and white incense burner, ten pieces of cashmere, ten gold silk brocade, and a pair of Hetian jade bracelets."

"I Wucang sent a topaz Buddha's hand, a white jade peacock basket, a delicate pearl basket, and ten pieces of flowing cloud brocade, colorful cloud brocade, and flower soft satin."

"Beishu sends congratulatory gifts: a pair of night pearls in the East China Sea, eighteen handmade gold bracelets by Persian craftsmen, a glass jade jade cabbage, and a pair of glass jade bracelets"

"The golden envoys of all countries have worked hard along the way, and they will definitely treat you well when the banquet begins."

"Xie Guojun"

The envoys of all the nations withdrew from the main hall and walked towards the garden where the feast was held

After Chi Ji came out of the main hall, he walked towards the garden next to the banquet.

This Chi Ji is the tenth prince of Wucang Kingdom, and this time Princess Shao Ning's birthday banquet was sent to give congratulatory gifts.

Chi Ji walked to a corner and looked around, and in less than a moment, a palace maid passed by here with a fruit bowl, and when she walked next to Chi Ji, a few fruits fell out of the fruit bowl, and the palace maid hurriedly squatted down to pick up the fruit, and Chi Ji also squatted down to help the palace maid pick it up.

The palace maid whispered to Chi Ji: "Your Highness, everything is in order, now you only need a drop of blood from Your Highness to activate that love Gu." ”

Chi Ji nodded, but he hesitated a little when he heard that he needed a drop of blood, but he didn't think much about it, after all, this palace maid's family was all in his hands: "Yes"

The palace maid took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve, Chi Ji dripped a drop of blood into it, then picked up the fruit, got up and walked towards the banquet.

The palace maid also got up and walked towards the outside of the garden, this palace maid was the one who was arrested before.

Xiao Ye and Zhao Jing were standing outside the garden, and the palace maid walked over.

"I got the blood"

"Okay" Xiao also took the porcelain vase, and then said to Zhao Jing: "Take her to meet her family"

"Yes"

They had been prepared for today's events for a long time, and they had already noticed it when the palace maid entered the palace, but in order not to startle the snake, he kept pretending not to know, and he had already figured out the identity of the palace maid in private.

This palace maid's name is Zhong Chun, she is from Wucang, she was secretly sent to Tianyun two years ago, and she thought she was well hidden in the imperial city.

Xiao also investigated that Zhong Chun's parents were obviously still alive and had a younger brother, but they didn't know their whereabouts, as if they had suddenly disappeared, and Xiao also knew that he must have been locked up.

Although Chi Ji is the prince of Wucang, he does not have any real power, if he becomes the concubine of Tianzhen and gets the support of Tianyan, he can have a part of his own power.

He wasn't sure that it was necessarily Chi Ji who wanted to give Princess Shao Ning a trick, but when he mentioned Chi Ji in front of Zhong Chun, Zhong Chun's reaction made him directly confirm his previous thoughts.
