"I think there's something strange about this!" Zhao Yunxing went to the high platform and saluted Luo Ye and Chang De, who were in the right position.

Mu Xici, who was sitting on the side, opened her slightly closed eyes and looked at her who was slowly getting up.

"Oh? I wonder what Zhaoyun thinks about this? Luo Ye leaned forward slightly and asked.

"I think there are three oddities." She was slightly blessed and said eloquently, "First, it is very strange that this snake appeared at the banquet. ”

"Snakes rarely appear in the palace, and even if they do, I think they are in a place where the grass is overgrown, and they will never appear in a grand presence at a banquet with so many people. What's more, this is a venomous snake with silver rings. As far as I know, these snakes are usually found only deep in the mountains. ”

"Second, why did it march around me? I think it seems purposeful. ”

"Third, the snake has already attacked me, but it has not moved. I think it may be a Chinese medicine, and the drug has not completely resolved. ”

"From this, I conclude that this is a poisonous snake that was deliberately brought into the palace." Zhaoyun's words are convincing, and his voice is crisp but loud.

"I agree with Princess Zhaoyun!"

The warm voice sounded in her ears, and she saw Mu Xici get up from the chair on the side, walk to her side, and bow to Luo Ye.

"When I restrained it before, I found it extremely slow. It can be seen that it is indeed a Chinese medicine. And the most medicinal for snakes, I think it is undoubtedly realgar powder. ”

Seeing him walk to his side, Zhaoyun frowned imperceptibly.

"If this man will bring it to the feast and let no one see it, he must hide it in a brocade bag." After thinking for a moment, Zhaoyun raised his head and cut the railway.

"If this man doesn't want to be bitten by this snake, I think he must first loosen the brocade bag that binds him and throw it away."

Speaking of this, a bright light suddenly flashed in Zhaoyun's eyes. "I implore the emperor to immediately send someone to search around the banquet. If I'm not mistaken, the bag that contained it should still be somewhere around. ”

Luo Ye frowned at those sword eyebrows, and immediately sent a dozen or so guards to search.

After about half a burnt of incense, they returned to the Dikun Temple.

"Tell the emperor, we found this in the flower garden not far from the front of the Dikun Palace." Commander Pang stepped forward and presented a black bag with both hands.

Luo Ye frowned, only glanced at it with disgust, and then motioned for him to give it to Zhaoyun.

Zhaoyun took it, and after taking a closer look, as soon as he opened the bag, a pungent smell came to his face. She subconsciously frowned and handed it to Luo Ye on the side.

"Back to Your Majesty, this is indeed the taste of realgar powder." He only had a cursory sniff and was sure.

"Even if it's confirmed to be realgar powder, what about it? Maybe someone at the banquet sewed it into a sachet to ward off snakes and insects, and accidentally lost it? The Empress Dowager Changde, who was sitting on the top seat, looked at the two of them coldly.

Zhaoyun saluted Changde and looked up at her, "This bag is not an ordinary bag!" I just took a closer look and found that this bag of fabric is not very good. ”

"Oh? What's wrong with this fabric? I don't think it's very different from ordinary fabrics! When Luo Ye heard it, he thought it was quite interesting.

"The emperor may not know that the fabric used in this bag is a rare Shu brocade outside the palace." There was a hint of a smile on the corner of Zhaoyun's mouth, "And this Shu brocade is a reward in the palace, I think the priest should have already recorded it." When it will be given, and to whom it will be given, you will know by inquiry. ”

As soon as Luo Ye heard this, he was about to send someone to investigate, but was stopped by Chang De.

"This serpent is dead, and it has not hurt anyone, so why should he stir up so much? For the sake of a brute, is it worth it? ”

"If this snake had really been released by a villain, it would have been safe today. It's shocking that Zhaoyun is small, but today it's shocking the Holy Driver, and this is a big deal! Zhaoyun listened to Chang De's words of pointing to Sang and scolding Huai, and still said with a smile.

"And this snake is a cold-blooded thing, if it weren't for the fact that even if the prince of Xiwu made a move today, he might have hurt Zhaoyun, or the guests at the banquet......"

"I also think that Zhaoyun is right! This is indeed quite a strange matter, and it should be thoroughly investigated! As soon as Zhaoyun's words fell, Luo Ye immediately patted the case.

"Your Majesty!" Changde still wanted to dissuade him, but was interrupted by Luo Ye.

"Mother, what if this villain has other intentions? This man is doing nothing under my nose, and I will not tolerate it! ”

"The emperor is wise!" Seeing that Changde still wanted to open his mouth to persuade, Zhaoyun replied first.

Chang De, who was blocked from speaking, suddenly frowned and glared at Zhaoyun angrily, and his slender eyebrows were full of hatred.

Mu Xici, who had never made a sound, glanced at Zhaoyun beside him. He thought she was a weak woman like a willow, but he didn't expect ...... But this is very novel!

Poria Palace.

"Did you put the snake in An Zhi?" As soon as Changde came out of the Dikun Palace, he came straight here and asked.

An Zhi looked suspicious, "Queen Mother, I'm the most afraid of snakes!" How could it be me? ”

"When the queen mother saw that the brocade bag containing the snake was actually Shu brocade, she thought that not long ago, she asked the priest to send you a few horses, and it was the queen mother who thought about it."

"I wouldn't do such a blatant stupid thing, the queen mother is too worried." An Zhi looked at Changde with a smile and secretly clenched the Jinpa in her hand.

At the same time, the person who did the stupid thing in An Zhi's mouth was anxious.

"Master, it's big, it's a big deal!" A palace maid hurriedly broke into the inner hall of Cheng'en Palace and said breathlessly.

"What's the matter, it's worth being so alarmed?" Murong Ruo put down the silver spoon that had just been mixed with spices and looked at Ruyi, who was drenched in sweat.

"Emperor, the emperor sent someone to Zhaoyun and the vicinity of the banquet to search carefully, and found the brocade bag you abandoned."

"What!" Murong Ruo stood up in shock, his right finger still firmly grasping the silver spoon.

"I heard that I still found something on the brocade bag. Master, what should we do? Ruyi wiped the fine sweat on his forehead with his sleeve and said hurriedly.

There was a crisp sound, and the silver spoon in Murong Ruo's hand fell heavily into the porcelain plate.

"What to do? What can you find in the brocade bag? She clasped her hands and bit her lip to herself.

"By the way, that brocade bag seems to be made of Shu brocade." Ruyi's words fell on Murong Ruo's ears, undoubtedly like a drop of cold water falling into boiling hot oil.

Murong Ruo clasped his hands, walked back and forth a few times, suddenly stopped, and said with a smile: "That Shu brocade was rewarded by the emperor before, not only for me, but also for that Guo Guifei and those new nobles. What am I afraid of? ”

Although she said this, she was still very weak-hearted, trying to remember if she had shown a flaw at the banquet before.

Behind him, wisps of light smoke slowly rose from the hollowed-out incense burner, intertwining with each other, leaving only a faint stream of sandalwood.
