Chapter 496: The Ten-Day Covenant

Shen Zhongbai didn't want to let himself continue to investigate, and he repeatedly thought that this fire must be man-made, which led him to make such a ten-day military order with himself, if he didn't find the real culprit of this matter within ten days, it would definitely be himself who lost his head.

How could Gao Qi not be worried about this matter, but after looking for a long time, he couldn't find any clues except that he could prove that it was absolutely impossible for a spark to burn this pile of wood if it was a flying spark.

Gao Qi will inevitably be a little disappointed, but at this time, he has no other way, thinking about Lou Mingyue, who is still hanging on his side, he still decided to return to the place where Lou Mingyue is locked up as soon as possible, so as not to take advantage of his absence, he will continue to belittle his body, in case something really happens, the emperor will not spare himself.

After Gao Qi left, Lou Mingyue also carefully thought of many methods, but there were very few ways to get out as soon as possible, and now it seems that these ideas are not very practical, after all, this is the palace, no matter how good his kung fu is, he may not be able to escape the many brocade guards in the palace.

What's more, under the erosion of poison for so many days, his internal strength seems to be much worse than before, and he doesn't know if there is a way to recover after he goes out, but at present, it seems that he really can't escape by himself.

What's more, Gao Qi, who has been guarding himself, is a dead eye in the end, and he refuses to relax his care, making it seem like he is really a prisoner, but he doesn't know what mistakes he has made, and he doesn't dare to have any too extreme behavior towards himself, so he feels even more uncomfortable as soon as he gets it.

In the final analysis, it is not a way to always do this, his current scope of activities is only limited to such a small area, which is really inappropriate for himself, and there is no way to communicate with people outside.

What you can do is be careful with everything around you.

Lou Mingyue looked at the food in front of her, knowing that it was poisonous, but she couldn't arouse the suspicion of others, and she had to maintain her physical strength, what should she do?

Lou Mingyue has always focused on practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he doesn't know anything about medical skills, plus he is simply a wizard who practices martial arts, from beginning to end, he hasn't suffered any big injuries, general skin injuries, he only needs to bandage them casually, and he has never been poisoned, now think about it, maybe it's because his father has been secretly protecting himself, so his things will go so smoothly.

Lou Mingyue lowered her head, but now at this time, she can't go back, I'm afraid my father doesn't know that he fell into Shen Zhongbai's hands, right? He continued to do his duty for him, guarding the frontier over there.

"What an old fool, if this really continues, it seems that the lives of both their father and son will not be saved."

After all, Lou Mingyue hasn't been out of the palace for a long time, and he doesn't understand what is going on outside, and naturally he doesn't know that his father has secretly rushed to Kyoto from Leping County, and the next thing should be better solved, but he is trapped in the palace, and he doesn't even know where he is trapped, how can he be in harmony with them, so he can only wait for them to realize that they are imprisoned, and then come to save themselves.

The frustration on Gao Qi's face couldn't be suppressed at all, and when he walked into Lou Mingyue's residence, he didn't say a word, but when he saw the food on his table that hadn't been touched at all, he couldn't help frowning.

"Your Royal Highness, is this a decision to threaten us without eating or drinking?" Gao Qi didn't investigate the slightest clue in today's matter, he was already in an irritable mood, and now he has to face a Lou Mingyue, he has always been a person who eats soft and not hard, and when he sees the person in front of him, he seems to want to threaten himself with this, and the anger in his heart is not to fight.

"Not really."

Although Lou Mingyue's physical condition is no longer as good as before, her head is still sober, and she really doesn't bother to offend him when she sees whether Gao Qi is in a good mood now.

"It's just that the weather is too hot and you don't have much appetite, if you think it's a waste, you can eat it yourself, and you don't have to put it in front of me."

Lou Mingyue knew that if he showed that he had noticed that there was a problem in this meal, it was estimated that Shen Zhongbai would soon find another way to poison himself, if that was the case, it would be better to secretly dispose of the meal while they were away, so that he would think that he was still trapped in his trap and would not think of any other way to deal with him.

Lou Mingyue raised her eyes slightly, looked at Gao Qi's reaction on the other side, and saw that he seemed to have something on his mind, and he didn't want to care about himself at all, so he put his mind at ease, Gao Qi was also a brocade guard, unlike the generals next to him who were all rough people, he was definitely a thoughtful person, otherwise, he would not have been able to stay by Shen Zhongbai's side for such a long time.

"Whatever you want, as long as you don't play with your life, the emperor probably won't say anything."

Gao Qi never thought that Lou Mingyue would be passive in the meals he ate every day, so he had never been on guard, since Lou Mingyue didn't seem to want to eat these things, then there was no need to force him, a big man, if he didn't eat for a few days, there should be no problems.

"You don't seem to be in a good mood, is something wrong?" Lou Mingyue is also idle now, rather than the two of them continuing to entangle endlessly around the question of who threatens whom, it is better to jump out of this question a little earlier and talk about something else, they

Both of them can also be a little more relaxed.

"It's nothing, it's just that there was a fire in the palace a few days ago, and the people in the palace said that it was dry and dry, but I felt that if it wasn't artificial, I shouldn't be able to afford such a big fire, but after I told the emperor, the emperor was angry, and now the sweet deadline is almost up, I still haven't found a clue to prove that this fire was deliberately set by someone, it seems that I am afraid that I am really going to be punished by the emperor."

Gao Qi didn't hide too much from Lou Mingyue in this regard, after all, he actually knew it in his heart, and if there were still no clues about this matter, it was estimated that it would be a certainty, and he probably wouldn't have any chance to escape.

"Fire......" Lou Mingyue thought about it for a while, it seems that it is still the previous incident, she already knows about it, this matter must have something to do with the person she bumped into that day, but she doesn't know the specific situation, or she still doesn't tell what she knows.

"It seems that there is no room for reversal in this matter, and since this is the case, there is no need for me to worry about this matter anymore."

Lou Mingyue nodded, "Okay then, then you can handle it yourself." "His current physical condition is really not suitable for any other thoughts, it is better to go back to rest early, save some physical strength, so as not to consume physical strength.

Gao Qi looked at the food that Lou Mingyue left on the table, and frowned slightly, Lou Mingyue has not eaten for so many days, there must be some reason, it is impossible to use a hunger strike to blackmail them for no reason, not to mention, Lou Mingyue has been normal a few days ago, and there is no reason to be locked up for so many days before he remembered to threaten him with such a method, Gao Qi always felt that something was wrong, so he took a plate of dishes on the table and went to the hospital.

Gao Qi is not so sluggish, Lou Mingyue suddenly refused to eat, there must be something wrong with this, if someone really does something in it, he will never allow it, after all, this is his own territory, if he lets others harm other people's lives, it will not be good.

Gao Qi has been on an errand in the palace for so many years, and in this palace, there will be more or less his own connections, and the doctor of the Tai Hospital must have friends with him, he didn't think about it, and found the old lady doctor he had always trusted.

"Lord Zhong, look at this meal, but what's the problem?" Gao Qi didn't want Lou Mingyue to have any accidents during the time he was under his care, so he was always very concerned about this matter, even if he was about to be punished by the emperor soon because he couldn't find the real arsonist, but he still had to do a good job in his duties.

The old lady doctor obviously didn't understand what Gao Qi meant by coming over with this plate of food, but according to his words, he took out his silver needle

After a little triing, he didn't find any traces of poison in the food on this plate, but he felt that something was wrong, "When was this meal served?" How does it look like it's been a long time? ”

Indeed, when the old lady doctor said this, Gao Qi also glanced at the dish on the table, even if the weather is a little hot now, it should not be in such a situation after only half an afternoon.

Gao Qi was asked a little inexplicably by this sentence, "When?" This is the meal that was just made at noon today, how can it be left out for days? ”

Because the person he wants to take care of this time has a special identity, he is the king of Leping County, so he is cautious in everything, even when cooking, he personally sent the most trusted person around him to watch, theoretically there should be no problem, and the people in the imperial dining room dare not fool them with the overnight meal, how can it be a meal a long time ago?
