Chapter 88: Investigation
"Liuyun, you hurry back and tell her not to investigate this matter anymore, these things are no longer something she can continue to intervene." Mo Xuanyin looked at Liuyun and said.
"However, the county lord's temperament, His Royal Highness the prince doesn't know, I think you still have to say it in person." Liuyun was a little helpless.
Mo Xuanyin also understood Gu Xiqian's temperament, it was indeed impossible to tell her to give up, but now there are more and more things involved, and even the priests are from Lanling Kingdom, so come to think of it, Lin Yiliu had already done a good job when she left.
Thinking of this, Mo Xuanyin couldn't help but sigh, feeling that this matter was beyond his imagination.
"Shizi..."Liuyun looked a little lost when he looked at him, and asked worriedly.
"I'm fine, you go back first, no matter what method you use, don't let her investigate these things again, if someone finds out, I'm afraid even I won't be able to protect her!" Mo Xuanyin said solemnly.
Liuyun nodded solemnly, looking at Mo Xuanyin's expression, she also realized the neutrality in the eyes of the matter, so she turned around and left the camp.
Walking out of the outside and looking at the laborers and soldiers outside, Mo Xuanyin suddenly felt a little tired, not only the problem of the river, but also the problem of Gu Xiqian's side was not easy.
"What should I do now?"
At this time, the soldiers came over and said excitedly: "Your Royal Highness, now that the villagers have seen that you have dug up water, they have all come over and said that they want to help dig the river together!" ”
When he heard them say that they would continue to dig the river, Mo Xuanyin said with a surprised face: "Didn't I tell you to stop digging?" You guys..."
The soldier also explained with some embarrassment: "Because the people in the drought-stricken village didn't know where the news came from, saying that we had dug water by repairing the river, so they came over one after another, and they are still helping to dig it." ”
Mo Xuanyin immediately called the soldiers to stop them, and he returned to the camp tent and looked at the map of the river, sighing helplessly.
Because the river above has to be dug to the side of the drought-stricken village, but the water source there is not enough to support them to dig there, and the time spent in the middle is not short, so the river channel must be modified to solve this problem.
However, what Mo Xuanyin needs most now is time, not only the river, but also the matter of taking care of Qian.
After looking carefully for a while, Mo Xuanyin looked at the nearby places on the map, and saw that the place where the water was controlled last time attracted his attention.
"If you take over the river last time, you should be able to solve the problem temporarily, right?" Looking at the two places on the map, Mo Xuanyin muttered.
On the other side, Liuyun returned to the Shizi Mansion, but after screaming a few times, he didn't receive a response from Gu Xiqian.
"The county lord? Princess? ”
After Liuyun knocked on Gu Xiqian's room several times, there was still no response, and immediately pushed the door in, and sure enough, there was no one inside.
"Not good!"
Just when Liuyun turned around and was about to go out to find someone, she saw Gu Xiqian appear behind her.
"What are you doing here?" Gu Xiqian asked.
Gu Xiqian, who suddenly appeared, was frightened, but she was a little relieved to see her come back.
However, looking at Gu Xiqian's expression, he estimated that he had found something again, and then returned to the room and began to open the ancient books and check them.
"Witchcraft... Witchcraft..."
Liuyun on the side looked at her like this, and couldn't help but be a little worried, "County Lord, otherwise, let's not investigate this matter, right?" ”
"No, now it's hard to make new progress, if you check it out, you will know the witchcraft of Lanling Kingdom, and then you can help the emperor get rid of their control, this is a great achievement." Gu Xiqian said excitedly.
"However, His Royal Highness the Prince of the World specially instructed me to tell you not to investigate this matter."
Gu Xiqian was a little puzzled, he didn't say that he wanted to stop himself at the beginning, but now he can finally continue to investigate, how can there be any reason to stop if he wants to?
"You go back and tell him, I'll take care of it, don't worry." Gu Xiqian said.
"County Lord, His Royal Highness is worried about your safety, if anything happens to you..."
"Alright, don't talk about it, I'm not going to stop!" Gu Xiqian replied to interrupt Liuyun's words, and then continued to look down at the ancient book.
Seeing that Gu Xiqian was not cooperative, Liuyun silently recited a sentence, then came behind Gu Xiqian, slashed at the back of her neck, and then put her on the bed.
"County Lord, the prince confessed, no matter what, I don't want you to continue the investigation, he is also for your good, offended."
After leaving the room, Liuyun said a few words to the people around him, only to see that the people left immediately.
Liuyun looked at the moon and sighed at the future of the two of them.
The next day, Gu Xiqian felt a little dizzy, and remembered yesterday's events in a daze.
"Liuyun, this girl, actually knocked me out when I wasn't paying attention..."
At this time, I saw Liu Yun push open the door of the room, and Liuyun came in with water, "County Lord, it's time to freshen up." ”
Gu Xiqian asked Liuyun about what happened last night, and in the face of her questioning, Liuyun had no choice but to tell Mo Xuanyin what was going on.
"You're saying that it wasn't necessarily those people's idea to build the river this time?" Gu Xiqian was a little surprised.
"Yes, His Royal Highness thinks that the emperor should have planned to build a river a long time ago, but they knew about it after the emperor was controlled, so he thought of using the topic to play to branch His Royal Highness the prince." Liuyun explained.
Gu Xiqian nodded and pondered, it seems that the emperor's idea at that time should be to dig the river to those villages where the drought occurred, and want to solve the problem there once and for all, but things are not as simple as he imagined.
"His Royal Highness thinks that if you continue to investigate, you may encounter accidents, so I will come back and tell you about it."
"Okay, I'll continue to investigate this matter, and if something happens, I won't bother him."
Liuyun was a little anxious, because she also knew that the current matter was not only Xiangwangfu, but also the priests, and if she continued to investigate, she really didn't know how many people would be implicated.
Moreover, the intention of the other party is already obvious, which is to infiltrate the entire imperial court and control the South Vietnamese country from the inside out.
"Okay, this matter is settled, you go back and tell Mo Xuanyin first, so that he doesn't have to worry."
Liuyun had no choice but to go over and repeat the old trick, this is Gu Xiqian stood up, "You want to stun me again?" ”
"County Lord, I'm sorry." Liuyun finished speaking and left the room.
Gu Xiqian was a little puzzled, but after a while, she saw the sound of an iron lock locking outside.
walked to the door and pushed it a few times but there was no response, Gu Xi understood, so he immediately ran to the window, only to see that the window was locked.
"Okay, you're a streamer, you're bolder, aren't you? Let me out! Gu Xiqian pushed the door and shouted.
And Liuyun outside, sighed helplessly, "County Lord, offended." Then he turned to the subordinate behind him, "You watch me closely, if she goes out, I will only ask you." ”
"Yes, yes, yes." The subordinates nodded their heads again and again.
Listening to Liu Yun's explanation to his subordinates, Gu Xi stomped her feet angrily, thinking that in this way she would have no way to continue the investigation, and she would also be placed under house arrest in the Shizi Mansion.
At this time, Gu Xiqian flipped through the things left by Mo Xuanyin, thinking about leaving at night when no one was paying attention.
Taking out the contents of the contents, Gu Xiqian laughed: "Just because you still want to stop me?" ”
At night, I saw a few subordinates patrolling around the room, and a few people sitting in front of the door of the room, talking and laughing, as if they were on duty.
"I'm telling you, be careful, this county lord is..."
Just as the other party continued, Liuyun came to them.
"How's the people inside?" Liuyun asked.
"The county lord just finished eating, and he still hasn't come out of the room, everything is fine." One of the servants replied.
"Ahh
At this time, a miserable scream came from Gu Xiqian's room, and Liuyun suddenly frowned.
Liuyun glared at them and said, "That's what you say? With that, he immediately ran into the room.
The subordinates on the side were also anxious, and immediately followed Liuyun and walked in.
Seeing that the room was messy, Gu Xiqian fell to the ground and clutched her stomach and shouted: "My stomach hurts so much!" ”
Recalling what the subordinate had just said about finishing the meal, Liuyun immediately turned back to them and shouted, "What are you still standing for?" Hurry up and call me a doctor! ”
The subordinates on the side ran out one after another when they heard it, Gu Xiqian took the opportunity to glance at it, and after making sure that they were leaving, he said weakly: "Liuyun, help me to the bedside."
Liuyun immediately did so, but as soon as he reached out, he saw Gu Xiqian immediately cover his mouth and nose, and a hidden smoke bomb came out.
"Boom!"
Seeing the smoke disperse, Gu Xiqian took advantage of the fact that Liuyun had not yet reacted, and immediately ran out, not forgetting to close the door.
"The county lord... Wait a minute..."
Seeing the smoke sneaking into his nose, Liuyun finally opened the door, but fainted because he inhaled too much.
After a while, the subordinate who came back took the doctor and looked at the fainting Liuyun, and was dumbfounded.
Gu Xiqian, who left the Shizi's Mansion, saw that it was still early, so she immediately went to the Niangniang's house, of course, by taking the secret road.
Because the events of that night were so strange, and the priest's actions and the mysterious talisman paper were really reminiscent.
Mo Xuanyin arrived near Niangniang's room, only to see the soldiers passing by complaining to each other.
"Recently, Niangniang's illness has really gotten worse and worse."
"yes, I don't know what's going on? Especially at night, it's really annoying to keep screaming. ”
"It's good that the priests come every day, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to keep a good vigil."
After watching the two soldiers leave, Gu Xiqian couldn't help but ponder.
