Ning Ke withdrew his hand, let out a solemn breath, and said solemnly: "Unfortunately, Niangniang is also poisoned. ”

"Huh?" Empress Xing's eyes widened and exclaimed, "Bengong, Bengong is also poisoned?"

Chu Lingyue said with a deep face: "Are you sure?

"Yes, did the queen mother poison after a day or two?" the prince asked with concern.

Ning Ke nodded, "Yes, Ning Ke is very familiar with Fire Gu, so it can't be wrong." Seeing the queen's panicked face, she added, "But the queen doesn't need to panic, this fire Gu has just entered the body, the damage is not big, and it is not difficult to detoxify, Ning Ke can detoxify the queen now." ”

She is not a comfort queen, she is telling the truth. The queen has just been poisoned, and it is not deep, she can detoxify it at one time.

"Okay, Ke'er, this time you have to help Hongu. The queen wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a silk scarf and choked up.

"Don't worry, Ning Ke is sure. ”

After receiving Ning Ke's promise, the queen's face softened, and the emperor immediately asked Ning Ke to detoxify the queen first, and then come to investigate the source of the brocade bamboo.

This time, it was Ning Ke's third time to detoxify the poison of the Fire Gu, it was really easy to do, the movements were more skilled, the speed was faster, and the techniques were more precise, and in less than two quarters of an hour, Ning Ke completed all the detoxification procedures.

She wiped away the poisonous blood that was forced out, and said to the queen: "Niangniang, the toxin has been resolved, maybe it will be a little weak, but it will be fine in a few days." ”

"Hmm! Hongu felt much more comfortable. The queen asked her to wait for the change of clothes, slowly got out of bed, and gratefully held Ning Ke's hand, "Ke'er, you are really the savior of the palace and the prince, you have saved the mother and son of the palace twice......!

Ning Ke interrupted her and smiled: "Niangniang, Ning Ke is a healer, this is a matter of duty, don't say this again in the future." ”

"Ke'er...... You're such a good girl. The queen burst into tears and smiled, the more she looked at Ning Ke, the more she appreciated it, "This palace really likes you so much, it's a pity that Concubine Shu doesn't know how to cherish it, otherwise ......."

"Mother, it's time for us to go out. Ning Ke guessed what she was going to say, and interjected: "The emperor is still waiting for you!"

"Oh yes yes, it was the main palace that crossed just now, Ke'er is not strange. The queen was a little embarrassed and smiled.

Ning Ke smiled without saying a word, packed up the medical kit and walked out.

Outside, the emperor and the crown prince were waiting anxiously, and they breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the queen was safe, "It's okay, it's okay!

Chu Junyue was afraid that he was the most calm and leisurely person here, he hooked a cup of tea and gently sipped it, and glanced at Ning Ke with a smile, smiling gently and proudly.

Ning Ke glanced at him, the corners of his mouth hooked, and quickly turned away, and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, although the person who poisoned him this time did not succeed, he had ill intentions, if he didn't find out, I am afraid that he would come again." ”

"Well, I also know, that's why I let LaCrosse enter the palace together. Chu Lingyue said in agreement: "In this matter, I hope that the two of you will work together to find out the truth together." ”

Chu Junyue put down the teacup, stood up, and said loudly: "Brother Huang, don't worry, Brother Chen will do his best." ”

"Well, you can do it, I don't worry. Chu Lingyue nodded with satisfaction, and then said to the queen: "In this matter, you tell me the ins and outs, so that Junyue can have a source." ”

The queen nodded weakly, and then explained the course of the day clearly, "The Japanese palace is also to worship the Buddha, but on the way back, it happened that a small temple fair was being held outside the temple, and there was a little girl from a poor family selling flowers. The palace was also moved by compassion, so he brought a pot of brocade back with him, and you also know what happened after that. ”

"A girl from a poor family?" Ning Ke subconsciously glanced at Chu Junyue, he said that most of the spies were women, and this time too, it seems to be true!

The queen nodded, "Well, this palace saw that she was still young, and said that she was old and young, which was really pitiful, so she was moved with compassion, but she didn't expect ......"

"Niangniang, do you remember what that girl looked like?" Ning Ke asked the key to the question, "Or where is that girl from?"

"The appearance of that girl, this palace can be drawn, but ......" the queen said halfway, paused again, and said apologetically: "But who that girl is, this palace really doesn't know." The temple fair has a large flow of people, and people from the surrounding places will come to the market, and they may not all know each other. ”

Ning Ke said that it was understandable, not to mention that it was not from other places, that is, the local girls rarely went out, and they generally did not recognize it, but fortunately, the queen could also paint, as long as there was a portrait, then everything was easy to say.

"Then there will be a portrait of Empress Lao. Chu Junyue said.

The queen nodded in response, and asked someone to bring a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and immediately began to draw.

I have to say that the queen is indeed a very talented woman, knowledgeable, knowledgeable, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, gentle and decent, no wonder even if there is no background, the emperor is very respectful.

Ning Ke looked at the queen's elegant posture of painting, and then thought about the appearance of himself holding a knife, and couldn't help but laugh at himself.

"Don't be presumptuous, I still like you like this. I don't know when, Chu Junyue had already come over and smiled low in her ear.

Ning Ke glanced at him sideways, "Who said that I was arrogant? Everyone is different, gentle and gentle, cold and cold." ”

"Well, no matter how cold a woman is, in front of her beloved, she will eventually become soft. Chu Junyue smiled, "I'm looking forward to the day when you are tender to me." ”

"Oh. Ning Ke was speechless, so he replied with one word.

It was cold in an instant, and Chu Junyue felt bored no matter what he wanted to say.

On this side, the queen had already written with her impressions, and soon drew the girl who sold flowers.

The emperor glanced at it, touched his mustache and smiled appreciatively, "Empress Danqing is still skilled and exquisite, but at a quick glance, she can draw so vividly." ”

"Your Majesty has won the award, the palace has not squandered ink for a long time, and it is somewhat rusty, I just hope that Ke'er and Junyue can see it. The queen bowed her eyebrows and was humble.

The palace maid showed the painted portrait to Ning Ke and Chu Junyue, Ning Ke glanced at it, her brows furrowed slightly, not that the painting was not good, but the paintings painted in ancient times were different from those in modern times, the so-called resemblance again, but she looked at it and felt the same, and she always felt that it was a little similar to everyone, not as detailed and realistic as the modern ones.

This looks the same as the portraits you see in history books when you study history in modern times.

But she couldn't spoil people's interest, so she had to praise her.

Chu Junyue asked the palace maid to put the painting away, took it herself, and didn't stay for long, so he said that he would go to investigate with Ning Ke and leave early.

"Do you think you can recognize the person in this painting?" When Ning Ke was in the carriage, he couldn't help but ask Chu Junyue.

Chu Jun smiled more and more, "Is this important, as long as the emperor finds it useful, then it's fine." Whether we need it or not is another matter. ”

Ning Ke pursed his lips, "Don't you just say that you can't recognize it?" I'll just say that the portraits painted in this era all look similar!"

"What era are you talking about?"

"It's nothing, let's go check it out now!"

Ning Ke was reluctant to talk to him more, so as not to show his stuffing.

Coming out of the palace, the two went directly to the temple where the queen frequented, and secretly sent someone to investigate the vendors of the day.

Don't think that ancient times were so casual, in fact, these procedures are much stricter than in modern times, such as entering the city to guide or something, without this thing, you can't enter Kyoto at all.

The subordinates have checked one by one, the number of women who come out to do business is quite small, and there are only a few who sell flowers, and there are two little girls who meet the queen's description.

Ning Ke and Chu Junyue immediately went to find the two families according to the records, but the girl in one of the families was fat and ugly, and she was not the one the queen mother said at all.

The only possible family, when Ning Ke and Chu Junyue arrived, according to the neighbors, the girl of that family died of illness as early as the beginning of the year, where was there any girl to sell flowers.

Ning Ke felt as if he had been tricked, and was angry, "We are busy in vain!"

It was clear that the spy had taken advantage of the identity of the dead girl!

"Well, it looks like that. Chu Junyue was still calm, as if nothing could make him change color.

Ning Ke took a deep breath, turned around and was about to go home, "What are you doing here, go home!"

"Are you discouraged like this?" Chu Junyue laughed slowly behind him, "It's just that you pounced, so you won't do it?"

Ning Ke turned his head coldly and stared at him coldly, "I didn't say I wouldn't do it, I just looked for clues for so long, and if I said that it was broken, it would be broken, I was very unhappy!"

"I've been investigating the spies in the South China Sea for a longer time, and I know better than you about the cunning of these female spies. Chu Junyue walked over and said with a solemn face: "However, Skynet is magnificent and not leaky, as long as things happen, there will definitely be loopholes." ”

Hearing what he said, Ning Ke's dim eyes lit up a little, "What do you know?"

"Think about it, why does that person know that the queen will go to worship the Buddha, and he can also use the queen's kindness to buy the brocade bamboo?" Chu Junyue raised his eyebrows and said eloquently: "This person should know the queen very well, she knows when the queen will leave the palace, and she also knows that the queen is kind-hearted and will buy her brocade bamboo, so that if she poisons the brocade bamboo, she will not know it." ”

Ning Ke vaguely thought of something, and his eyes lit up, "That's right, if it weren't for the fire harrier I gave the prince there, this fire Gu wouldn't have been discovered!"

"This is just one aspect, have you ever wondered why we can't find out how to poison her?" Chu Junyue looked at her, his eyes were meaningful.

The corners of Ning Ke's mouth hooked, "Because this person has always used the queen to go out of the palace to worship the Buddha, and through various means, the queen brought the poison back to the palace!

"Yes, in this way, no one can find out who poisoned it, and God doesn't know it!"

"So who is it? How do you know so much about the queen's itinerary? Could it be someone close to the queen?"
