Originally, he was going to go out of the valley tomorrow, but the fourth elder had an accident, and Bai Ling couldn't leave at this time.

Unless she saw the corpses of the four elders with her own eyes, Bai Ling didn't believe that the four elders died like this, at least she didn't want to believe it.

"The fourth child will also be pleased with the heart of the young valley master." The Great Elder tilted his head, so that people could not see his expression, but they could feel the deep sadness emanating from him.

"Senior Brother Xue, now is not the time to be sad."

Bai Ling retracted his gaze and saw Xue Hongyan kneeling on the edge of the cliff, smashing his painful fist on the ice, bright red blood stained on the ice, but he had no intention of stopping.

The person who killed the four elders was Zhiqiu, and it was normal for Xue Hongyan to blame himself, but Xue Hongyan was also an innocent person in this matter, and he couldn't be angry.

But in the blink of an eye, seeing Lingqiu hiding aside, Bai Ling was annoyed by Xue Hongyan's lack of knowledge, so he said coldly: "In this life, the four elders have taken the Medicine King Valley the most, and now that the four elders are no more, we have to fulfill the wishes of the four elders." And what I and the four elders just talked about, I have to worry everyone to do it together. ”

When the words fell, Bai Ling went down the mountain first.

Everyone had to be separated so that Bai Ling could go down to the Siguo Cliff as soon as possible to find the attitude of the four elders.

If there were really various dangers at the bottom of the cliff, the sooner she found the Fourth Elder, the better her chance of survival.

The news of the unfortunate death of the four elders was quickly known to the disciples of the Medicine King Valley, and it was inevitable that they would fall into low pressure for a while.

In order not to panic people's hearts, several elders announced to the public that Zhiqiu had made a mistake, and when the four elders reprimanded him, the two accidentally fell to the bottom of the cliff.

But after experiencing the underground palace and other things, the disciples' hearts were panicked, and no matter what people said, they would feel that this was the Medicine King Valley and the internal thief, and Zhiqiu was also so characterized.

Even, when the disciples look at the people who usually have friction, they will doubt the true identity of the other party.

And Bai Ling didn't have time to take care of these things for the time being, and after explaining some things about the dark guard and Begonia, he took advantage of the need to rest, and entered the space to think about the cliff.

Palace.

Shangguan Yu hurried continuously, and after returning to Beijing, the first thing he did was to enter the palace to report the poisoning to the emperor.

In the imperial study, there were only the emperor and Shangguan Yu, and the emperor didn't want anyone to get involved in this matter, in case someone leaked the news and caused panic among the people.

"Ziyuan, I want you to tell the truth, how many soldiers in the Zixiao Army have been poisoned?" The Emperor asked in a deep voice.

Shangguan Yu has always been very clear that there are spies of the emperor in the Zixiao Army.

Not to mention the Zixiao Army, even in the entire Northland, there are also many people installed by the emperor.

As long as it does not endanger the Han Palace, Shangguan Yu will not do anything to these people, let the emperor know the dynamics of the Zixiao Army, and there is no rebellion with the Han Palace, and there will be less tension between each other.

"Back to the emperor, there are more than 300 people in total. The minister was incompetent and had been poisoned. Shangguan Yu replied.

The emperor's face changed slightly, and he looked at Shangguan Yu scrutinically.

Although the emperor had never seen a poisonous person, he had heard of the power of poisonous people.

And the poisonous man is a new thing, and there are also two poisonous people in the palace who were secretly sent back to the capital, and the imperial hospital has not developed a prescription on its own.

Although Bai Ling gave a prescription for detoxification, the emperor also guarded against Bai Ling after Bai Ling and Shangguan Yu made a marriage, fearing that Bai Ling and the Han Wangfu would collude and be detrimental to the Eastern Han Kingdom.

"You...... Is there an abnormality? The emperor's hand on his lap tightened, and at this time, he looked at Shangguan Yu like a monster, afraid that Shangguan Yu would not be able to understand it thoroughly, and added: "What I ask is, after you detoxify, is there any abnormality in your body?" ”

"Back to the emperor, there is." Shangguan Yu nodded, seeing that the emperor's face had changed greatly, he sneered in his heart, but his face was inconspicuous: "After being weak for a while, the minister found that his body seemed to be stronger than before. But Lord Jixiang once said that the time is still too short to be sure if there are other side effects. ”

The emperor's expression changed, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so Shangguan Yu stopped talking.

After a long time, the emperor spoke up: "If this poison is used in the army......"

Hearing the emperor's tentative words, Shangguan Yu immediately spoke up: "Never! ”

"Why?" The emperor knew too little about poisonous people, so he was willing to listen to Shangguan Yu say more.

But Shangguan Yu's words, the emperor naturally won't believe it all.

"Poisoners are not conscious, and they are not necessarily controlled. The poisoners known to them have been poisoned for no more than a month, so they can be detoxified. The auspicious county lord talked to the ministers about this, once the poison is poisoned for a long time, the life span will be shortened, and the later period will be out of control, and it is not human power that can stop their actions. ”

Afraid that the emperor would not believe it, Shangguan Yu said again: "Although the auspicious county lord can detoxify poisonous people, he is not sure that there will be sequelae, and he is even more afraid of encountering those poisonous people who she can't control the toxicity, so she has returned to the Medicine King Valley and wants to seek Shang Lao to study the detoxification together." ”

"Isn't the auspicious county lord sure?" The Emperor frowned, dissatisfied with the result.

Especially when Bai Ling went to the Valley of the Medicine King, the emperor couldn't find anyone if he wanted to, and he still wanted to summon Bai Ling to Beijing.

Now that the guarantee is gone, the emperor is afraid that it will be even more difficult to sleep.

"Yes." Shangguan Yu nodded and said with a solemn expression: "Your Majesty, the minister has a bold assumption. The people behind the scenes who made poisonous people wanted the country of the Eastern Han Dynasty, or did they want to dominate the world? Poisonous people can fight one against ten, it's not that they are copper-skinned and iron-clad, it's just that they don't know the pain.

And the person who wants to make a poisonous person has been hiding in the shadows, how will such a ruthless and vicious person kill innocent people for the purpose in the future? If the number of poisonous people increases substantially, the society of the country will not be in danger. ”

The emperor's face was gloomy, of course he had thought about this possibility, otherwise he would not have sent someone out to investigate the matter.

It's just a few months later, and there are no useful clues other than finding some poisonous people.

Whenever he thought of the danger of poisoning people, the emperor could not sleep at night, for fear that the people around him would also become poisoners, or someone would poison him, and from then on become a puppet.

It is precisely because of this that the emperor has not been in the harem for a long time, and he has also taken precautions against the concubines.

This time, Shangguan Yu was not mocked by the emperor's expression, and after a moment of silence, he said: "I don't know, the other party has selectively chosen the Zixiao Army to make poisoners, or if other armies also plan to do the same." However, it takes at least half a year for a poisoner to be poisoned, to the onset of toxicity, and finally to develop into a tool without cognition. ”

"Half a year!" The Emperor exclaimed.

"Yes." Shangguan Yu lowered his eyes and said sadly: "In the Zixiao Army, I found that someone was exchanging private messages with Beichen Kingdom, and I am still not sure if it has anything to do with the poisoning incident. Therefore, the minister's return to Beijing this time is also to give that person a chance to see if he has a big move. ”

"This matter has something to do with Beichen Kingdom?" The emperor's face was covered with dark clouds, as if Shangguan Yu nodded his head, and he would send troops to destroy the Beichen Kingdom.

"To be exact, it is the prince of Beichen Kingdom, who bought the generals in the Zixiao army." Shangguan Yu raised his head, looked directly at Emperor Long Yan, got up and sent a letter to the imperial case.
