Chapter 68: Unraveling Gu
As for Wang Gu's coming, Lin Yaxin didn't think so much at that time, so many people knew that Yuquan Palace invited Wang Gu to diagnose his pulse today. It was only when I was stunned by the news of Lin Yaxin's grounding that I didn't notice this clue. Fortunately, Li Yiqian thought of this, and they were ready, Lin Yaxin's pulse today was written with dizziness and vomiting, which was obviously caused by eating the wrong thing. In addition, the pregnant woman is thoughtful, and she has a reason for her tantrums.
As soon as Li Yiqian returned to the Qiangong, he began to investigate. After signaling Mu Xiu to go out, Li Yiqian called Hua Yi out.
"Hua Yi."
"The subordinates are here."
"Is there anything unusual about those people in the harem lately?" Although he couldn't hear the ups and downs in his voice, Hua Yi knew Li Yiqian's mood at this time.
"Nope. Concubine Liu, Concubine De, Lan Yu and Sun Qi, after the emperor's order last time, their subordinates arranged for people to keep an eye on them. No anomalies were found. ”
Li Yiqian absolutely believed in the ability and loyalty of the Dragon Emperor in this life, so the doubts in his heart deepened. If it's not these people, could it be that there are still people in the palace who have secret dealings with Lan Guo? and Sun Qi's pregnancy Gu last time, and the real murderer has not been found until now. And this time, Xin'er was in the Gu, but these people who were most likely to attack did not move, which means that there is still a huge black hand in the harem that is secretly manipulating all this.
"You go and let the people of the Dragon Emperor work in pairs, keep an eye on the concubines of each palace, and the Queen Mother, and also send two people to keep an eye on them secretly." Li Yiqian thought about it, if he could let Lin Yaxin fall into the Gu under his strict defense, this person must have a certain amount of power.
What's more, Yuquan Palace has already protected the people of the Dragon Emperor as a whole, so it can be seen that it should not be a Gu in the palace. That's just ......
"Let's ask Hua Wu again, who has Xin'er been in contact with recently. There you go. ”
"Yes."
After that, he sat in his chair and cleaned up what had happened recently. "Xiao Muzi, if you go and ask Wang Gu to come over, you will say that I have a cold."
"Yes, the minion will go." Mu Xiu knew that Li Yiqian might have thought of something, so he quickened his pace and went to the imperial hospital.
——————
"I've seen the emperor." Wang Gu was flipping through the codex that his master had recorded about pregnancy Gu, when suddenly Mu Xiu said that the emperor had a cold. He was a little puzzled, the emperor was still fine when they met, why did he get sick in a blink of an eye? Thinking that there might be something wrong with him, but is there anything more important at the moment than Lin Yaxin's Gu unraveling? Yes, he didn't speak after saluting, waiting for Li Yiqian to speak.
"Can you probably see how long Xin'er's pregnancy Gu has been?" Li Yiqian had been thinking about the object of suspicion, and after coming back to his senses, he asked about what he had suddenly thought of just now.
"According to Yichen, it should have been this Gu from the time she was first pregnant. It is recorded in Master's Codex that the larvae of a pregnant Gu will grow in the pregnant woman's body for three to five months, and there will be signs of manifestation from around three months. Now Niangniang is pregnant for three months, and she has shown something unusual, which shows that she was tricked when she was first pregnant. Wang Gu didn't understand what Li Yiqian's purpose was in asking this question, so he just answered what he knew.
"March? What is the way for this Gu to fall on the pregnant woman's body? ”
"The blood of a pregnant woman has an attraction to the larvae of this Gu, as long as the pregnant woman has come into contact with the larvae, she will be hit by the Gu. Moreover, this larvae do not survive long outside the human body, and will die within a day after leaving the utensils used by Gu keepers. ”
"I know, you go back and study the method of solving the Gu carefully, and you don't have to pay attention to anyone's summons. When asked, I told you to concentrate on a way to prevent the plague. Waving his hand to signal Wang Gu to go down, thinking about his words, Li Yiqian was thoughtful.
A lot of things happened when Xin'er was first pregnant, and the two of them were out of the palace. Although there are snakes and dragons on the street, no one should recognize them, not to mention the matter of Sun Qi at the beginning, she really has never been out of the palace. Therefore, the scope of the suspect is in the palace.
"Little Muzi, you come in."
"What does the emperor command?"
"You go like this." Li Yiqian whispered something in Mu Xiu's ear, and then motioned for him to go out to do something.
I must catch this person behind the scenes this time, otherwise the safety of Xin'er and the child will be in danger in the future......
The work of two days is not long, and it is not short.
The biggest news in the palace is that Lin Yaxin was grounded, and Lan Yu replaced her old love to accompany Li Yiqian. There is also Sun Qi's physical recovery and regaining grace. Of course, this is only on the surface, and a lot has already happened behind the scenes.
For example, Wang Gu finally confirmed Lin Yaxin's final plan to solve the Gu, and Zhao Qinyue made a black hand against Lan Yu again, and so on.
Although Zhao Qinyue was a black hand against Lan Yu, Lan Yu knew that she was full of hostility towards herself at the beginning, and she guarded against her early, so Zhao Qinyue not only did not succeed, but was also sued by Lan Yu in front of Li Yiqian. Zhao Qinyue's image in Li Yiqian's heart, which was finally "repaired", was completely destroyed in an instant. The hatred for Blue Rain in my heart skyrocketed.
Seeing that Lin Yaxin had a tendency to fall out of favor, the palaces naturally had enough energy to attract Li Yiqian's attention, so that his status could rise higher.
No matter how "chaotic" it was outside, Yuquan Palace maintained a bland attitude, and even the palace people in the palace rarely came out. In the eyes of outsiders, this is even more confirmed by Lin Yaxin's fall from grace.
Early in the morning, Li Yiqian and Wang Gu quietly came to Yuquan Palace.
"Your Majesty, Senior Brother, you are here." Wang Jinyun had been in Yuquan Palace for two days and had never left, and she and Ziyue took turns staring at Lin Yaxin's situation, for fear that something unexpected would happen and she wouldn't have time to deal with it. Fortunately, these two days were spent safely.
And the people outside didn't understand that Wang Jinyun stayed in Yuquan Palace for two days, after all, their relationship was well known to everyone in the palace, and now that Lin Yaxin had fallen out of favor, it was normal for her to comfort her.
Li Yiqian nodded at her and asked Wang Gu, who came in later: "How are you prepared?" ”
"The minister needs to check the pulse of the mother first, and then he can start to solve the Gu after making sure that it is correct." Wang Gu also had a trace of nervousness in his heart, after all, it was related to the emperor's favorite mother and the emperor's heir, if he went on a business trip, he would not be able to lose ten heads.
"Okay." Li Yiqian nodded in agreement, it's about Lin Yaxin, it's always good to be cautious in everything.
Wang Gu took the pulse, stayed quietly for a while, and got up to salute.
"Niangniang's situation is very good, and now there will be no problem with solving the Gu. The process of unraveling the Gu also asks the emperor to wait outside, and asks the lady to stay and help. ”
"Can't I be there?" Li Yiqian wanted to accompany Lin Yaxin through this dangerous juncture, and he couldn't let her face it alone, even if she was unconscious.
"This kind of scene is always a bit unlucky, for the sake of the emperor's dragon body, it's better for you to avoid it." Wang Gu said it purely from the perspective of an imperial doctor.
"I'm not afraid, I'm the Son of Heaven and I don't have any bad luck. I want to stay with Xin'er, and you just have to heal. As soon as Li Yiqian heard that it was for this reason, he immediately decided. As for the bad luck that Wang Gu said, hehe, is there anything more bad than him who died once?
From the perspective of a third party, Wang Jinyun also felt that Li Yiqian should be avoided, but as Lin Yaxin's "mother's family", she was very satisfied with Li Yiqian's performance. The more moments like this, the more a person's sincerity can be reflected.
If Li Yiqian left without hesitation today, Wang Jinyun would persuade Lin Yaxin to think about the future. After all, if just a small "bad luck" can stop his pace, then if he encounters a critical moment, Xin'er must be the one who is sacrificed.
However, in order not to have any accidents, Wang Jinyun still reminded: "Please don't speak out no matter what the emperor sees later, otherwise it will affect the senior brother, and I am afraid it will be unfavorable to Xin'er." ”
"I know, don't worry." After Sun Qi fell into the Gu last time, Li Yiqian had looked up some methods for solving Gu and roughly understood some of the processes, and she knew what Wang Jinyun was referring to.
"The minister needs a cup of tea to prepare things, during this period, if the emperor has anything to arrange, please hurry up, it is best to arrange someone to guard the dormitory. Once the process of unraveling the Gu begins, the person who is under the Gu will definitely feel it, and I am afraid that something will happen. But this process must not be interrupted and must not be affected in any way, otherwise the minister will not dare to guarantee the safety of the mother and the imperial heir. Wang Gu reported to Li Yiqian with some heaviness.
"If you prepare with all your heart, there will be no surprises in this process. I will not allow anyone to destroy it. After speaking, Li Yiqian walked out.
The time for a cup of tea soon came, and Li Yiqian also returned. Wang Gu and Wang Jinyun glanced at each other and began to explain the Gu for Lin Yaxin.
Li Yiqian looked at them worriedly, although he hoped that the person behind the scenes would make a move, so that he could catch that person, but at the same time, he didn't want him to make a move. Although he gave the killing order to the people of the Dragon Emperor, he was not afraid of 10,000 just in case. In Li Yiqian's entanglement, Wang Gu's side ended quickly.
Looking at Wang Gu and Wang Jinyun's pale faces and beads of sweat on their foreheads, Li Yiqian knew that although it didn't take long to solve the Gu, it was definitely very hard for the two of them, and the consumption of mental power was sometimes more exhausting than physical strength.
Although he was in a very anxious mood, he didn't immediately come forward to ask. He knew it should be fine, otherwise they wouldn't have a relaxed look on their faces.
Sure enough, Wang Gu soon came over to report the situation to him.
"Your Majesty, the pregnancy Gu has been solved. There was no damage to Niangniang's body, and as for the little prince, as long as nothing happened in the later period, there would be no big problem. It's just that when you are born, you will be weaker than the average baby, and you need to take care of it. ”
"I've worked hard for you this time, go back and rest." For the first time, Li Yiqian was so glad that he could do it all over again, everything could be remedied.
