As Lu Guitang expected, the Holy Lord naturally wanted to get to the bottom of Una's death, but this matter could not be made clear, but he ordered Lu Chengxiu and Lu Guitang to investigate secretly.

Although they are all holy decrees, it is much more difficult to investigate secretly than to come openly, because they have no men under their hands who can be dispatched, and they have to do everything themselves.

Fortunately, Lu Guitang had Shang Guyuan's role by his side, and the two of them dragged Gu Haomian into the water very shamelessly.

As soon as the palace banquet dispersed, the three of them went to the imperial dining room.

Chen Xiangsheng's words are credible, according to him, Una was poisoned and had a problem with his diet.

The most likely place to be poisoned is in the side dishes on the table before the palace feast begins.

After Una's death, the scene was chaotic, even though he knew that even if there were any clues, they might be wiped clean, but Lu Guitang still tested the recovered side dishes one by one in line with the principle of not letting go of any clues.

The answer, of course, is no.

Shang Guyuan frowned on the side and questioned: "Are you sure that you were poisoned, can you find out what you were poisoned to, so that we can have more clues." ”

Lu Guitang was stunned suddenly, and suddenly remembered what Chen Xiangsheng said, "The silver needle has not turned black", and immediately felt that it was a clue.

He told Gu Haomian and Shang Guyuan about this, but he really had an unexpected gain.

When he was young, he traveled to the East China Sea with his father and learned that there were some unusual poisonous things in the south, which were not as immediate as the arsenic that could be seen, but they could kill people invisibly.

The tricky thing is that such poisons are not uncommon, such as plants and fungi, which cannot be detected by silver needles, but they also have a characteristic, that is, poison requires a process and will not kill immediately.

Hearing this, Gu Haomian was slightly stunned, and he said: "The prince came late today, and he may not know much about the situation before Una's death. ”

Lu Guitang raised his eyebrows, waiting for him to continue.

"This afternoon, when the Gui Clan's peace envoy entered the palace, the banquet of the Taiye Pool had already been prepared, and as soon as Na Wu came in, he shouted that he was hungry, and they looked at the dishes on the table, so they ate and drank a meal, but after a cup of tea, the person fell to the ground and died."

Tea Kung Fu ......

Shang Guyuan immediately decided: "Even if it is arsenic and crane top red, there must be a process, a cup of tea, it is too fast."

As soon as these words came out, several people felt that something was wrong.

If a person does not die because he eats the food at the palace banquet, then he eats something that he should not eat before entering the palace.

After all, as the envoy of the Gui clan, Una enjoys full freedom in the post house, and it is not easy to find out what he ate, and to hide it from Qi Guanqiu and others to prevent them from finding out that the cause of Una's death is different.

The three of them left the imperial dining room immediately and decided to go out of the palace first.

At this time, the palace banquet had all dispersed, all the ministers had already left the palace gate, and Qi Guanqiu and others had already returned to the post house.

Lu Guitang looked for Gu Jin again, but learned that she went to the Prime Minister's Mansion after leaving the palace with Gu Jiangyuan.

Thinking that it was already dark, he felt that Gu Jin would stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion tonight, so it would not be easy to see her, and thinking that Gu Haomian was still by his side, he simply dispelled the idea of seeing Gu Jin again.

Lu Guitang, Gu Haomian, and Shang Guyuan thought about it for a while, and decided to strike while the iron was hot, go out of the inner city, and go to the post house.

At the other end of Bianliang City, Gu Jin walked out of the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Let's play

She came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to tell Wei Xiangsheng about Chen Xiangsheng's speculation about the white poison umbrella, and his wife Wei wanted to stay in the mansion, but Gu Jin refused on the grounds that the mourning period had not expired.

She left the prime minister's mansion by herself, and she did not bring maids and servants.

Gu Jin raised his head and looked at the long street at the beginning of the lanterns, but a sense of sadness suddenly arose in his heart.

She paused, knowing that Una's death had once again shattered the rare peace in Bianliang City.

Even if the Holy Authority ordered a secret investigation, even if Lu Chengxiu and Lu Guitang personally intervened in this matter, even if they had to help Gu Haomian and Chen Xiangsheng, Gu Jin's heart was still unsteady.

Maybe it's because I've been used to seeing the ups and downs of the world for many years, or maybe it's because of my firm steps in this life, Gu Jin walked towards Marshal Gu's mansion.

Toss, turn, and do again.

There is a mountain at the foot of the imperial city, which is located to the east of the imperial palace and the north of the Xianwang Mansion.

You don't have to go out of the city to enter the mountains, and tonight, Una's body is buried there.

Gu Jin only walked for two quarters of an hour, and then he smelled the fragrance of mountain cherries, thinking that the world was full of fragrant flowers in April, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple began to bloom.

However, Gu Jin didn't have the leisure to enjoy the flowers, when he was in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Prime Minister Wei had already sent someone to investigate, and learned that Lu Guitang, Gu Haomian and others went out of the inner city and went to the post house to investigate the case, so Prime Minister Wei decided not to mention the white poison umbrella first, and wait for the news of Lu Guitang and others.

Since someone went to the post house, it was possible to startle the snake, and Gu Jing thought that if the people behind the scenes really wanted to provoke the peace between Dazhen and the Gui clan, I am afraid that they would make a new fuss from Una's corpse.

Gu Jin didn't plan to turn over the clouds and rain on her own, she only came to explore the way, and tomorrow she would discuss with Lu Guitang how to deal with Una's corpse.

The night was deep, the mountain road was silent, only the sound of the wind slightly brushed in the ears, and the insects chirped in a mountain.

Fortunately, Gu Jin is not really a twenty-eight-year-old boudoir lady, otherwise this gloomy atmosphere would have scared her a lot.

Gu Jin guessed that there was an emergency at the palace banquet tonight, and the Holy Lord temporarily ordered that Una be buried at the foot of the mountain closest to the palace, presumably the person who received the order was lazy and would not go too deep.

It should be at the foot of the mountain.

Gradually moving away from the lights on the long street, the night in front of him was a little thick, Gu Jin felt a fire fold from his sleeve, and the sudden light of the fire illuminated the rugged mountain road, and at the same time, Gu Jin's body shook suddenly.

There are people in front of you.

I saw three or five men stunned in front of Gu Jin, the smile on his face had not yet dissipated, but the meaning of inquiry in his expression when he looked at Gu Jinshen became more and more obvious.

Rao is Gu Jin has some of her usual composure and calmness, but she still can't help but take a step back, she faintly feels, no, she is sure that the person who comes is not good.

I saw that the three or five men used a few moments of effort to fade the stunned look in their eyes, and then what rose was the ecstatic look on their faces.

They took three steps and two steps, pulling a ragged shirt on their bodies, and stopped in front of Gu Jin, who was about to turn away, and said something in their mouths:

"Brothers, what kind of luck are we going, we can meet such a beautiful young lady on a night road."

Several other people echoed one after another, and the hue revealed in their eyes almost drowned Gu Jin.

She's been robbed.
