Chapter 0138: Yin and Yang Double Gu
"Mama Wu, who instructed you to poison the Queen Mother?"
"Hugh wants to talk nonsense, I am the queen mother's maid, I have followed the queen mother since I was a child, the queen mother treats me like her own sister, how can I poison the queen mother?"
Hearing that the young master of the East actually framed himself for poisoning the Queen Mother, Mama Wu immediately glared at her old eyes and retorted loudly.
"Young Master of the East, Mama Wu has watched me grow up since I was a child, and I don't believe that she will poison the queen mother, do you think there is any misunderstanding in this?"
Hearing this, Baili Chenjiang frowned and looked at Gu Youlan.
"Your Majesty, if Ben Shao doesn't have full evidence, how can he blame her?"
Seeing that Baili Chenjiang nodded after a moment of contemplation, Gu Youlan looked at Mama Wu and continued to ask.
"Mama Wu, since you followed the Queen Mother into the palace, have you personally taken care of the Queen Mother's daily life and food?"
"This ...... There are so many grandmothers and maidservant eunuchs in Cixi Palace, how can I be all-encompassing? ”
"Listen to you, that is, you didn't do your best to serve the Queen Mother?"
"Hmph, even if I am a little slack in serving the Queen Mother, I have the Queen Mother to deal with you, you are neither the princess nor the concubine, why do you ask me questions? And why should I give you everything in return? ”
Mama Wu said, raised her head, and snorted softly.
Seeing Mama Wu's blushing and thick-necked speech, Gu Youlan sneered inwardly.
"This old woman is really a master of the power fighting technique of the Immersion Palace, not only her words are sharp, but also to the point, it seems that I am really an opponent today!"
After thinking about it, Gu Youlan pretended to be very helpless, spread her hands and shoulders and shrugged, tilted her head to look at Baili Chenjiang and said.
"Your Majesty, it seems that as Mama Wu said, Ben Shao is nosy, although the Queen Mother has been highly poisoned for ten years, but this is indeed His Majesty's family matter, forgive Ben Shao!"
After the words fell, he stood up lazily and bowed his hand: "Since the queen mother's phoenix body has healed, then Ben Shao will leave!" ”
After that, without waiting for Baili Chenjiang to have any reply, he was about to turn around and leave.
"Wait! The young master of the East, please stay, listen to what the young master said just now, the queen mother has been heavily poisoned for ten years? ”
"Of course, if it weren't for the fact that this poison was colorless and tasteless, and it was not reflected in the pulse, how could the imperial doctors not be able to detect it? And this toxin must pass through the daily food intake to accumulate over time to become highly toxic. ”
Gu Youlan said that, and just as she was about to say goodbye again, she saw Mama Wu stand up suddenly and shouted loudly like crazy.
"You are talking nonsense, I serve the Queen Mother every day, and the Queen Mother's diet is always checked by me personally, if it is poisonous, why am I not poisoned?"
"Could it be that the dose of poison you are poisoned is relatively small, or the Queen Mother has taken the tonic prescribed by the imperial doctor, and you have no right to take it?"
"Impossible, the Queen Mother's three meals a day, including tea and soup, are all tested by me before they are given to the Queen Mother!"
"Mama Wu, didn't you just say that? Did you forget it after a while? Or is this poison yours to order, and you're just prevaricating? ”
"I didn't, it's not me, it's Wan Guifei......" As soon as the words came out, Mama Wu immediately covered her mouth and sat on the ground with helpless eyes like a defeated rooster.
Seeing Mama Wu like this, the corners of Gu Youlan's mouth hooked slightly, and Baili Chenjiang also narrowed his eyes, as if he was thinking.
Sumeru, Baili Chenjiang, who had sorted out his thoughts, looked at Gu Youlan and said softly.
"Young Master Dongfang, it seems that the matter has been very clear, you might as well tell me what kind of poison the Queen Mother has been in."
Hearing this, Gu Youlan smiled silently, took out two jade bottles from her arms, and put them on the table in front of Baili Chenjiang.
Suddenly seeing these two jade bottles, and carefully looking at the two insects in the jade bottles, Baili Chenjiang's face was suddenly full of shock.
"Young Master of the East, this ...... What is this? ”
"These two insects crawled out of the mouth and nose of the Queen Mother, as for what it is, you shouldn't ask me, you should ask Mama Wu."
Gu Youlan said, lifted the hem of her clothes, and sat back on the chair generously, without saying more.
"What? This bug actually crawled out of the mother's mouth and nose? This, this ......"
Hearing this, Baili Chenjiang glanced at the insects in the jade bottle with disgust, and then looked at Mama Wu and said coldly.
"Mama Wu, after you have served your mother for many years, as long as you tell what is going on with this worm, I will spare you from dying!"
Hearing His Majesty the Emperor's words, and looking at Gu Youlan who was staring at her intently, Mama Wu secretly rubbed her skirt, her eyes were full of panic.
At this moment, Imperial Doctor Zhang, who was standing on the side, walked over softly, only to see him bend down, pick up the jade bottle on the table and look at it carefully, then ponder for a moment and said.
"Your Majesty, if the minister is not mistaken, these two insects are growing in the Netherworld Forest at the intersection of Chunyu Kingdom and Shentu Kingdom, and their names are 'Netherworld Yin and Yang Worms'!"
"Oh, Imperial Doctor Zhang, you actually know this worm, so do you know what they are for?"
"Your Majesty, as far as the minister knows, this Yin Yang Worm was raised by a poison refining family in Chun Yu Country, and it was specially used to refine Gu poison, so this Gu is also called 'Yin Yang Double Gu'."
"Yin and Yang Double Gu? Could it be that the Queen Mother was poisoned by Wan Guifei ten years ago? ”
Hearing this, Bailichen Jiang Teng stood up, instantly angry, and his fierce eyes suddenly swept towards Mama Wu.
", who gave you the courage to collude with Wan Cairong to poison the Queen Mother?"
"Your Majesty, slave maid, slave maid doesn't know that it is Yin Yang Gu Poison?"
Seeing the anger on the emperor's face, Mama Wu suddenly trembled, and explained loudly with panicked eyes.
"You don't know, who knows? Come on, slap me in the face until she knows! ”
As soon as Baili Chenjiang's words fell, the guards on the side instantly raised their arms and pumped towards Mama Wu's old face.
"Smack, smack"...... As Mama Wu's old face gradually became red and swollen, traces of blood gushed out from under the corners of her trembling lips.
"Your Majesty...... Don't fight, the slave just said it......"
Seeing Mama Wu, who had changed beyond recognition, her mouth was full of blood, Baili Chenjiang narrowed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and then sat back on the chair.
"Eleven years ago, Queen Yuan was killed in a fire, and the Queen Mother learned that she was ill, and later in order to chant and pray for Queen Yuan, the Queen Mother stayed in the Royal Ancestral Temple."
"But who would have thought that a year later, when the Queen Mother came back from the ancestral temple, she heard that the sixth princess was sent to the imperial tomb, and the Queen Mother lamented that the sixth princess was young and frail, and in those days she often dreamed that Queen Yuan cried to her, and as a result, her hair turned gray overnight."
"Later, Concubine Wan Guifei didn't know where to get a few pills, saying that it could cure the Queen Mother's gray hair and make the Queen Mother stay young forever, so the Queen Mother believed it and took it."
As a result, in less than three days, the Queen Mother's gray hair really recovered as before, and her appearance gradually became younger, so ...... Your Majesty, the slave really doesn't know that there is Gu poison in that pill, if she knows, the slave and maid will definitely not let the Queen Mother take it, Your Majesty! ”
Hearing Mama Wu's exhausted words, Gu Youlan's heart suddenly felt a little painful.
"I really didn't expect that in this harem, there are still people who really love the little princess, and this person is actually the queen mother of the world."
"It seems that I tried my best to save the Queen Mother is also a cycle of cause and effect, and it is not in vain that she has remembered the little princess for so many years."
After thinking about it, Gu Youlan sighed secretly, and then thought of the initiator, "Hmph, Wan Guifei, why do you participate in everything?" ”
"If the harem is a pool of muddy water, then you are a loach in this muddy water, don't worry, your good days are coming to an end, I entered the palace this time to find out your old loach in this troubled water!"
Just as Gu Youlan was secretly pondering for a moment, she saw an imperial doctor walking up with a tray.
"Your Majesty, the Queen Mother's decoction is ready."
Hearing this, Baili Chenjiang, who was also thinking about it at the moment, suddenly came back to his senses.
"Well, let's go, I'll go in with you and feed the Queen Mother."
"Your Majesty, wait!" Seeing the two bowls of soup medicine on the imperial doctor's tray, Gu Youlan hurriedly called out to Baili Chenjiang.
"What else is the matter with the young master of the East?" Hearing this, Baili Chenjiang asked puzzled.
"Uh...... Of those two bowls of decoction, one of them is mine! Seeing the incomprehension in her father's eyes, Gu Youlan touched her nose embarrassedly.
"Oh, hahaha, I was negligent, just now the young master must have lost a lot of physical strength in order to save the Queen Mother, and it should be made up!"
Baili Chenjiang said, shook his cuffs, carefully picked up one of the bowls of decoction, and handed it to Gu Youlan's mouth.
Seeing His Majesty's actions at first glance, all the Dan masters and imperial doctors in the main hall were suddenly full of surprise, and even Mama Wu, who couldn't tell where the eyes were and where the nose was at this moment, was instantly shocked.
"My God, Your Majesty actually personally served medicine to the Young Master of the East, this, what an honor, oh my God, this Young Master of the East is really a blessing from several generations of cultivation!"
Seeing Baili Chenjiang personally feeding himself, Gu Youlan was also stunned for an instant, and just about to take the medicine bowl with both hands, he saw him take the medicine bowl back and blow it lightly on the edge of the bowl.
Seeing this scene, Gu Youlan's heart suddenly had a little throbbing, and the hatred and contempt for him in her heart seemed to have disappeared in an instant because of Baili Chenjiang's actions.
Sumeru, Baili Chenjiang, who was holding the medicine bowl, secretly probed the temperature of the medicine bowl, and then brought it to Gu Youlan's side and said softly.
"Okay, the temperature of the decoction is just right, you drink it quickly, wait a minute, I have to feed the queen mother myself!"
Seeing the concern in his father's eyes and hearing the tenderness in his words, Gu Youlan's eyes instantly turned red, and she hurriedly took the medicine bowl with both hands, and drank all the decoction and medicine in the bowl in one go.
"Hahaha, okay, the young master of the East is refreshing, you sit here for a while, and when I finish feeding the queen mother, I will have a big feast, not only to reward all the Dan masters today, but also to have a good time with the young master of the East!"
After that, Baili Chenjiang threw up his dragon robe and entered the room with a red face.
Seeing his father leave in a chic manner, Gu Youlan's heart was like a turbulent river, patting the shore restlessly.
Just when she wanted to sit down and think about it, suddenly! From outside the Cixi Palace, there was a trembling cry.
