Chapter 110: All or Nothing
But she thought of the words that the man under the pear blossom tree seemed to mean to startle the snake, and immediately beckoned the person back.
"Come back!!"
When Xiao Xuanzi heard this anxious command, he didn't stop with one foot, and almost broke his foot when he turned back on the steps.
"My lord, what's wrong?"
Mu Jiu subconsciously waved his hand: "Don't startle the snake, he said, you can't startle the snake." ”
He???
Xiao Xuanzi's mind flashed such a question, who is he?
Lord Fang Cai saw the emperor, could it be that he is the emperor in the mouth of the adults at this moment?
"Does he know something? That's why I was told not to act rashly. Yes, the person who wants to borrow my hand to harm the queen behind his back can't make a plan, and he must have a plan for the next step. ”
Mu Jiu's low muttering voice was very small, even if Xiao Xuanzi was waiting by Mu Jiu's side at the moment, he couldn't hear it clearly, seeing that the adult seemed to be a little stunned, he hurriedly shouted in a low voice: "My lord? My lord? ”
Mu Jiu looked up at Xiao Xuanzi very quickly, and saw that Xiao Xuanzi's eyes were full of doubts, and he thoughtfully commanded him.
"Little Xuanzi, this matter can't be acted upon rashly, now that the medicine is gone, it means that the evidence is gone."
"Yes, my lord, the little one came back a quarter of an hour before you came back, and it was only an hour before we went back and forth to Kunning Palace, and someone came in and stole the medicine in question, so it must have been stolen while we were away."
Xiao Xuanzi's analysis made sense, and Mu Jiu nodded slightly to agree with what Xiao Xuanzi said.
"Yes, you're right, but we can't startle the person on the back of the ground, and if the person retracts his hands and feet, it won't be easy to catch him."
"Yes, sir, that's what you said. But the queen's medicine is in this room, and the hands and feet are all moved to the Muyu Pavilion, and the queen's eye disease will be several days, and we can't stare at it for twelve hours a day in the next few days. ”
Mu Jiu bit her lip, she always felt that her mind was in turmoil, and at this moment, even if she guessed in her heart that it was the hands and feet of the dragon general, but now she didn't know who the thief was, which was not good.
Mu Jiu felt that he was at a disadvantage and had to find someone to help.
A figure flashed in her mind, and she hurriedly said, "Go and find Mozhu, this official has something to tell him." ”
"Yes, the others?"
"Don't move yet, you shouldn't know about this matter, and when we haven't lost anything in Muyu Pavilion, you just do your job."
"Yes, then your lord, wait a minute, my subordinates will go and find the ink guards."
Mu Jiu nodded, and then turned back to study the diluted fine powder over there, Mu Jiu took the silk scarf over there, wanting to suck up all the excess juice on the fine powder.
She turned her back to the door and didn't notice that someone was coming behind her, it was still the shadow of Mozhu blocking Mu Jiu's light, Mu Jiu stood up straight in fear, and turned her head sharply to see Mozhu over there.
This man is still so old-fashioned, holding a sword: "My lord, what do you command?" ”
Mu Jiu pursed his lips, this ink bamboo came so quickly, I am afraid that it was not Xiao Xuanzi who found it, but it had been lurking by his side, and when he heard that he was looking for him, he automatically appeared.
But at present, when Mu Jiu was employing people, he saw him coming, and ordered in a cold voice: "You go to find the emperor for the official to ask for a guard to come over, and you two guards take turns to guard this small medicine shop day and night, and whoever comes in and takes anything will come over and tell you."
Officer. ”
Mo Zhu frowned: "My lord, this medicine shop is so small, one person can take care of it." ”
Mu Jiu sneered: "You're not eating?" Don't sleep anymore? Next the queen has a five-day treatment, do you do when you machine? ”
Mo Zhu was choked and immediately stopped talking.
"Yes, my subordinates will go to pay homage to the emperor."
"Well, the two of you will be on guard day and night, and if a thief sneaks into this medicine shop in the middle of the night, you have to catch it red-handed."
Mu Jiu said it so firmly, this Mo Zhu thought that this adult gave such a solemn order, I am afraid that something bad will happen in this small medicine shop in the past few days.
A set of elaborate plans appeared in Mu Jiu's mind at this moment, and his eyes flashed with desperate ruthlessness.
"Which secret guard do you bring with you later, this official is not interested in getting to know, but you must ensure that no one can find out that you are hiding in this medicine shop for the next few days, if people know that this medicine shop is being watched by you, others will not dare to do anything."
"Yes, please rest assured at this point, our two brothers are out of the horse, and your subordinates will definitely do what you command."
"That's good. You go to the Heart Cultivation Palace, tell the emperor what this official talent has said, and then you will guard it in this medicine shop. ”
Mo Zhu got the order, and went in the direction of the Heart Cultivation Palace.
After the people left, Mu Jiu touched the drained medicine powder with his gloved fingers, but soon Mu Jiu's glove fingertips touched the place where the medicine powder was touched, and there was a corroded burnt smell.
Mu Jiu quickly took off the gloves in his hand, and said with hatred: "That dragon will be cold and ruthless, and it is doped with so much corrosive and strong phenol in it, if the queen touches it, it is strange that the skin of his hands must not be corroded." ”
Judging from the color and taste, Mu Jiu felt that it was like a phenol, but this corrosive was so strong, it must have been refined from the herbs and then purified in a large amount, otherwise where could there be such medicinal power.
At this moment, Mu Jiu picked up the copper basin and poured all the potions into the flower garden where people didn't often come in the past.
Mu Jiu could clearly feel that the vigorous grass that was still producing was rapidly withering under the effect of this potion.
Mu Jiu looked at this scene, thinking that if she hadn't discovered the abnormality today, she would have withered today.
Seeing that all these medicinal juices were soaked in the soil, Mu Jiu's heart calmed down a little, and he returned to his bedroom with palpitations.
It's been a whole day today, and it's almost dusk since I went to Changchun Palace in the morning to help Long Jijin get rid of his fever.
At dusk, the room was dim, and Mu Jiu sat on the desk and didn't know what he was thinking.
"My lord, dinner is ready."
Lu Ju's crisp voice sounded from outside the door, and these words brought Mu Jiu's consciousness back.
She raised her eyes to look at the green chrysanthemum and green plum who were serving the meal outside, and waved her hand a little listlessly, asking the two of them to put the meal on the table.
"Let's go down, go and prepare water for the official, the official will take a bath later."
After a busy day today, the clothes on Mu Jiu's body have already become a little sticky, and at the moment she just wants to take a refreshing bath with a meal, and then sleep steadily, starting tomorrow, she will start to pave the way for herself to leave the palace.
"Yes."
The green plum put down the meal and left, but Midori stayed, and took a burning candle and lit it in the room.
The brightness in the room suddenly increased, and Mu Jiu always sat there without moving, and he was not in a hurry to go over to eat.
Qingmei saw that Mu Jiu didn't move, and said with concern.
"Your Excellency, you can eat."
Mu Jiu's heart was irritable, although he had been busy for a day, he had been hungry for a long time, but he had no intention of eating.
"You go down, this official has to stay by himself for a while."
"Yes, my lord, these meals were specially sent by the imperial dining room, and they were not very hot when they were delivered, so you don't have to worry about getting cold. Even though it's important, I can't afford to skip food."
Mu Jiu had never paid attention to this green chrysanthemum, she fell her gaze lightly on this person, and asked with some suspicion: "How do you know that this official is thinking about things?" ”
A trace of panic flashed in Lu Ju's eyes, but he immediately calmed down again: "My lord, where are you asking, you frown, and you don't have the heart to eat, you must be thinking about things."
Today's matter in Muyu Pavilion, Mu Jiu dared to conclude that except for Xiao Xuanzi who knew, no one else would know.
But this maid didn't come to her in the past, why did she suddenly talk too much this time?
She felt that she was a little suspicious, but this was a special time, and there was no room for the slightest surprise.
She was even wondering if this green chrysanthemum was coming to find out the news for the dragon general.
"Why don't you think that this official didn't want to eat because he didn't like the meal sent today?"
"My lord, you are laughing again, in the past, you ate whatever was sent by the imperial dining room, and how could the meals delivered by the imperial dining room be bad.....
"I really didn't see it, you are quite meticulous in your observation of this official."
Before Lu Ju's words were finished, Mu Jiu cut off her words in a strange way.
This green chrysanthemum only realized at this moment how much he said and how wrong he was, especially Mu Jiu's strange tone now, and the green chrysanthemum who listened to it felt furious in his heart.
"Go down !!"
Mu Jiu had a bad feeling in her heart, and she didn't expect that Long Jianghan's hand would stretch out so long and move so fast.
At this moment, Mu Jiu let Lu Ju retreat, firstly, because he didn't want to startle the snake, and secondly, now that he knew that Lu Ju was the thief of this Muyu Pavilion, it would be easy to guard against it.
The third, and most important, is because Mu Jiu wants to rely on the green chrysanthemum to round up the lie of the Lingmu Immortal Grass.
As the saying goes, to tell a lie, you have to use countless lies to round it, and at this moment, Mu Jiu is also a little unbearable, the lie she and the emperor told in front of the queen and the people of the world needs to be compensated with human lives.
After dinner, Mu Jiu saw that it was still early, so she went to the Heart Cultivation Hall to greet the emperor, and by the way, she talked about the plan in her mind.
The dragon general of the Heart Cultivation Hall was still thinking about when Mu Jiu would be able to send the booklet over, and when he was closing his eyes and resting, he heard the Duke of Chu come to report that Mu Jiu asked to see him.
He opened his pretend eyes, reclined on the collapse, and waved his hand: "Let him in." ”
Before Mu Jiu could walk in, he saw the dragon general lying on the collapse and lazy on the side, worried that he would disturb his rest, and even lightened his steps.
"Aiqing is here to hand in the questionnaire?"
Mu Jiuyi knocked on the door of her head, ah, she forgot about this matter again.
"Wechen has been studying the poison all afternoon, and now that I have made some discoveries, I'll come over and talk to you immediately, the questionnaire, Wechen, I haven't had time to write it yet."
The more he talked about the back, the more weak Mu Jiu's heart became, and he thought that the emperor was going to pursue this matter again. 2k reading web
