Chapter 160: Killing Machine (Part II)

"Daddy, I'll wait."

"Waiting for what?"

"Pretending to be confused, isn't it? Beauty Tongue, Old Medical Case. ”

"It's not that Daddy doesn't want to talk about it, it's not that Daddy doesn't want to talk about it, but this matter, it's really nothing to talk about."

"Fool me?"

"There's really nothing to talk about, I just found that beautiful tongue in an old medical case, and it happened that there was a relevant record in the medical case, I thought it was strange and rare, so I privately found the Jingshi Yamen, bought the body of a prisoner who had just died, and then made a while of tinkering with myself, and raised this beautiful tongue."

"Daddy raised this beautiful tongue just for the sake of rarity and rarity?"

"Of course not, it's a mistake to think that this beautiful tongue can replace Ma Boiling Powder and become a better anesthetic. This hemp boiling powder has lasted for a hundred years since it came out, although it can relieve pain, but it cannot be completely painless, for some seriously injured, especially those soldiers on the battlefield, it can only relieve the slightest pain. I was thinking, although this beautiful tongue is a little bit more complicated, but the medicine is good, before treating those soldiers, you can let them take the beauty tongue first, and after the medicine is effective, quickly heal, and then detoxify. ”

"That sounds like a good idea."

"It's good, but it's a pity that after the first beauty tongue was raised, I knew that this matter was unreliable, because its toxicity spread too much, and there will be slight differences in the efficacy of the drug according to the physique of the user.

"What about the beautiful tongue?"

"If it is destroyed, it can't save people, what is the use of me keeping it, if it is obtained by those who have evil intentions, won't it cause a big mess."

"Daddy can still say these words now, and that beautiful tongue is finally won by someone with ill intentions."

"I'm also strange about this, otherwise how could I come back to Yecheng." Yan Baiqing made a weak expression: "Don't worry, my cause will definitely have me to bear this fruit." ”

"Since there is a book on it, and there may be a record in the book over there, I don't think this matter is necessarily related to your father." Old Mrs. Yan opened her mouth: "Besides, isn't this matter already over?" That beautiful tongue, Su Wen also found it, and burned it all away, and the rest of the Gu family boys and Wei Lin were also checking. Things will come to an end. ”

"What Grandmother said is that what I want to ask today is something related to the third sister." Yan Suwen lowered his head and stepped aside.

Old Mrs. Yan cleared her throat and pointed to another maid kneeling on the ground: "It's your turn!" ”

"Slave maid...... Old lady, the slave really can't remember what she has done. ”

"I can't remember things, I should remember them." Wangqiu threw something in front of the maid.

It was a gown, with a unique pattern and fine embroidery, and the double-sided buckle alone was not the craftsmanship of the ordinary embroidery room. This gown, to say the least, is worth dozens of taels of silver. If the maid kneeling in front of her saves carefully for a few years, it is also consumed, but it does not mean that it will be able to be bought.

"This is the gown embroidered by the flower lady herself, just a buckle on this is worth ten taels of silver, you a girl who has signed a deed, how much can you save on weekdays? Even if you save it yourself, if you don't have three or five years, seven or eight years, it will be difficult for you to save enough, I want to ask you, where did this gown come from? ”

"Someone else sent it."

"Someone else gave it, why can't I meet such a good thing." Wangqiu snorted coldly.

The maid's face turned pale, pursed her lips, and whispered back, "It's really someone else's gift." That day, I went out on an errand, and after walking a short distance, I met a group of beggars. The beggars had a leader, who was sneaky, and when he saw me, he took out a burden from his bosom. That's the gown in that bag. The beggar told me that the gown had been picked up from the door of a certain prince's house, and that although it had been worn through, it was no different from a new one, and that if I liked it, let me take it. ”

"Is this pie in the sky? Why didn't it hit the courtyard of our Baifutang Hall. Old lady, can I ask you for one thing? After this day, if there is nothing important, you can let Wangqiu go out for a walk, and maybe you can meet an old beggar who gives Wangqiu such a precious thing. This gown, if it is taken to those pawn shops, let alone two or three hundred taels, with these, Wangqiu's dowry will also be there. ”

"Can I go out to ask for my Qiu'er's dowry?" Old Lady Yan glanced at Wangqiu, Wangqiu lowered her head and smiled, and stood back beside the old lady.

"The old lady dotes on Wangqiu, this Wangqiu knows. Don't look at autumn, the one in our Baifu Hall is not spoiled by the old lady. ”

"The slave knows that Sister Wangqiu and the old lady don't believe it, but everything the slave says is true."

"Then you must have promised the old beggar something, or said something to him." Yan Suwen made a brief summary on the side.

"Yes, the slave did tell the old beggar something."

"What?"

"It's nothing specific, just a casual conversation, such as what the third lady does every day, what time she goes to bed on weekdays, what time she gets up or something. The slave swore that the slave really didn't say anything important. ”

"You're wrong, what you said seems to be ordinary trivial matters, and they don't matter, but for those bad people with bad intentions, this is the most important thing." Yan Suwen sighed.

Right now, the only people in the Yan family who know the truth are Yan Suwen, Yan Weilin and the maid named Qiu Lu next to Yan Mutong, and the trivial things in the mouth of this maid just now happen to be the homework done by those people hidden in the shadows. This also confirms more and more that those people have been planning for not a day or two, but have long locked their eyes on the Yan family and Yan Mutong.

Wangqiu asked a few more questions, almost all of them had similar situations, and the old lady also punished them one by one according to the extent of their mistakes. By the end of the interrogation, it was already late at night, and except for the lamp in the hall, the entire Yan family was pitch black.

In the palace, Yan Muyun was escorted to kneel on the hard bluestone paved ground, her knees were painful, but she didn't even dare to make a superfluous expression. On her side, the eunuchs and palace maids who had been bribed by her were all lying on the ground, their clothes were torn, and their backs were dripping with blood. Behind them, there were several stools, which were also stained with blood, which was a sign that the eunuchs and palace maids who were lying on the ground had been punished with rods.

"Concubine Yun, do you know what's wrong?"

The queen was just as she had been when she had visited before, her face was calm, and she couldn't see much anger, and even the words she had just used were confessions of mistakes, not more serious confessions.

"Concubine Yun?"

"Back to the queen's mother, the concubine knows that she is wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"Concubines should not be delusional, should not inquire about the emperor's whereabouts in private, should not deliberately create opportunities to meet the emperor by chance, and should not compete with the queen and other ladies in this palace for favor."

"It's not your fault." The queen looked at her coldly, without a trace of waves in her eyes: "Since you have entered the palace and become the concubine of the emperor, what is wrong with you asking the emperor about the whereabouts of the emperor in private?" This is in the palace, if it is left in the homes of ordinary people, it is extremely normal for a wife and concubine to ask where her husband is going. Although I am the queen, I will not use the common feelings of these people to oppress you. As for creating opportunities, this is more normal. There is only one emperor, but there are many concubines, if you don't create opportunities by yourself, wouldn't you have no chances. There's nothing wrong with competing for favor, if everyone doesn't compete for favor, what's the point of staying in this harem. ”

"What's wrong with that concubine?"

"The fault is that you shouldn't buy these people with money, and the fault is that you shouldn't just trust these people. Today, if you can buy them with silver and get the emperor's whereabouts from their mouths, then another day, others can also buy them with silver and get the emperor's whereabouts from their mouths. Once at a time, their appetite will be raised, and who knows who will buy them next? At that time, even in this palace surrounded by heavy soldiers, the emperor will not eat well and sleep poorly. ”

"That concubineβ€”"

"You are a concubine, a concubine, and a woman who is the emperor's predecessor. The woman in front of the emperor asked the man's whereabouts in her own house and even asked for silver. You are so weak, how can you survive in this palace, you are so unable to use the power in your hands and use the name of your concubine, so what's the point of you being a concubine. ”

"The concubine is wrong, the concubine is really wrong."

"Then please tell me, what else are you wrong?"

"What's wrong?" Yan Muyun thought carefully: "Please let the queen mother make it clear." ”

"You're too anxious, you just entered the palace, and you are in a hurry to go out and meet the emperor before you even get acquainted with your own people, aren't you worried that your Concubine Yun's position will be pulled down before you can sit firmly?"

"I-"

"If it weren't for Gu Xiang's sake, I definitely wouldn't have told you this." The queen got up: "Since you know that you are wrong, you must not care about some punishment, Concubine Yun." This person has to eat a trench to grow wise. Come on, hit! ”

Before the queen turned her back, a palace maid immediately stepped forward to suppress Yan Muyun and dragged her to one of the stools. Before she could react, the pain from her back had already made her face white.

Has her waist been broken?

Before he could open his mouth, another stick fell, and the force seemed to be heavier than the first blow. Yan Muyun couldn't help but scream, but it was accompanied by a wooden stick that fell faster. When she fainted, she doesn't remember, only that when she woke up, she was still lying at the door of the queen's bedroom, she could feel that she was covered in injuries, but she couldn't feel the pain on her body.
