Just when she was worried, she saw a black-brown centipede, frightened by the fact that she had turned the hay on her face, and was about to twist her body and flee with her tentacles open. was stepped on by Xiao He and couldn't move.

"I'm sorry, now I can only borrow your life to save my life." She was ruthless and dealt with the centipede.

Thanks to the fact that she was also given a pot of bad wine in this meal, which was just used to cook the centipede. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to get her mouth shut. It's just that with the toxicity of this little centipede, she is not sure that she can suppress the five steps, so she can only control the intake a little. This move is quite risky, but Xiao He already knows that the people in the Criminal Department dare not touch her now, and if she is found to be poisoned, they will not be able to get out of it.

She didn't gamble, but calculated, they didn't dare to let her die in this cell.

She had already eaten half a bowl of rice, and she ate all kinds of dishes, as if she were a delicacy in her mouth, and the poison of the rice quickly reacted. Abdominal pain was like a wrench, followed by tinnitus. As she endured the pain, she raised her foot and kicked the table where the food was kept, shouting at the jailer.

At this time, it is necessary to make some big noise.

Fortunately, Xiao He was familiar with the process of this toxic attack and the method of restraint, so she clicked on the two large acupoints on her chest to prevent the toxin from flowing to her heart and lungs. When the jailer came, he saw at a glance that Xiao He was half-paralyzed on the ground, bleeding from his seven orifices, and his body was still a little convulsive.

She still has a trace of clarity in her mind, although the seven orifices do bleed, but it is also because she has cut off her own blood, so she will retrograde on her face, which makes the people watching a little creepy. She heard the jailer scream and fled with her head in her hands.

After a while, there was the sound of hurried and frequent footsteps.

At this time, Xiao He was already unable to open her eyes, and she could barely sense a little sound from the outside world, and she heard someone say that she was going to ask for an imperial doctor, and she was a little relieved that her life should be saved.

When the news reached Mu Churan, he was listening to Mu Yunjing report on the situation on the side of Chaolu Palace.

Someone reported that Xiao He was now unconscious and was being rescued because he had eaten a poisoned meal in prison. Mu Churan stood up from the dragon chair, "Call all the imperial doctors on duty in the imperial medical center!" He was shocked, his face couldn't return to normal for a while, and Mu Yunjing couldn't wait to fly to the prison of the Criminal Department now.

After the person who reported the news retreated, Mu Churan reluctantly turned his head and said to Mu Yunjing, "Yunjing, I'm afraid I won't be able to continue today, so you go back to the East Palace first, and I'll talk to you in detail another day." As soon as he spoke, Mu Yunjing immediately bowed his head and said, "Yes, the nephew will retreat first." ”

After Mu Yunjing left the hall, he couldn't help but say to Gonggong Liu, "It's a matter of worrying father-in-law." ”

Gonggong Liu humbly bowed down and said, "Although His Royal Highness King Yu commanded, the old slave did not dare to bear the word "labor." ”

"If Xiao He is poisoned by death over there in the Criminal Department, I will also inform this king." Mu Yunjing said, "After all, this king is also a judge appointed by His Majesty, so he needs to pay more attention to this matter." ”

Gonggong Liu hurriedly nodded yes, "His Royal Highness King Yu can rest assured, if there is any news, the old slave will definitely send someone to the East Palace as soon as possible." ”

Mu Yunjing snorted, and then said softly, "Thank you, father-in-law." And then he flew away.

Gonggong Liu glanced at Mu Yunjing's back, and thoughtfully entered the hall to serve.

In the hall just now, although Mu Yunjing didn't say much, his expression was too shocked when he heard the news of Xiao He's poisoning, and his irrepressible anxiety was on his face, and he didn't even notice whether Mu Churan observed his face. Therefore, after leaving the palace gate, he borrowed the mouth of Gonggong Liu to make another cover up and put aside the relationship.

Now, he can't expose his relationship with Xiao He. In public and private, he didn't want Mu Churan to know how important Xiao He was to him.

Mu Churan couldn't hold back the worries in her heart, but she couldn't go to visit Xiao He in the prison of the Criminal Department right away, so she could only urge people to ask her about her situation over and over again.

When he heard that she was deeply poisoned and had already been bleeding from seven orifices, Mu Churan panicked, "Use the best medicine, you must revive people!" He was about to set up the punishment department when he was stopped by Gonggong Liu.

"Your Majesty, if you go over at this time, you can't help much, all the imperial doctors on duty at the imperial doctor have already passed, if you go over again, I'm afraid that they will be frightened and won't be able to concentrate on treating Lord Xiao." Gonggong Liu said slowly.

Mu Churan was in a hurry, he didn't think about it so much, and when he was mentioned by Gonggong Liu, he was much quieter. The more he paid attention to this matter, the more ruthless the attitude of the perpetrators behind the scenes towards Xiao He would become. first planted the blame, ruined Xiao He Guanwei, and then poisoned her in prison, directly wanting her life. However, this matter is also linked to the imperial examination that he attaches great importance to, if it weren't for the fact that he had some trust in Xiao He and others in his heart, the evidence that fell in front of him alone would have been enough for Xiao He to die ten times and eight times.

It is really bold to dare to shake the foundation of the country in this way.

Mu Churan returned to the imperial case and said loudly, "Pen and ink waiting!" ”

Immediately, he wrote a handwritten letter and handed it to Gao Bowang, asking him to immediately investigate the poisoning incident thoroughly, and no suspicion could be let go. As for Xiao He, he could only pray in his heart that she could save the day this time and get through it safely.

"His Royal Highness King Yu also seems to be very concerned about this matter, and has also explained that if Lord Xiao is poisoned and killed, send him a message......" Gonggong Liu said while carefully observing Mu Churan's face. What words! She'll be fine! Mu Churan frowned and interrupted.

"Yes, yes. The old slave's mouth really deserves to be beaten! Gonggong Liu said, pretending to slap himself on the mouth.

"That's what he told you?" Mu Churan recalled it and confirmed it again.

"yes. Originally, the servants thought that King Yu was close to Lord Xiao, and I heard that Lord Xiao had been invited to a banquet in the East Palace. But I didn't think about it, and that's it. Gonggong Liu continued.

Mu Churan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Your eyes are quite far away." ”

"Don't dare, the old slave is just concerned about His Majesty and sharing his worries for His Majesty." Gonggong Liu bowed his head humbly and said.

"Since Yunjing entered the palace, I deliberately relaxed and did not restrain him to avoid idlers gossiping. Don't go too far with your eyeliner and get his attention, disturb the uncle-nephew relationship between me and him, and even chop off your head ten times won't help. Although Mu Churan's words were not serious, this attitude made Gonggong Liu feel a chill down his spine.

He pondered these words again before replying, "The old slave should remember His Majesty's instructions. ”

Someone from the criminal department reported that after Xiao He was poured the antidote, although he did not wake up, he vomited poisonous blood, and his pulse slowed down a lot.

When Mu Churan heard this, he became angry, "What does it mean to be able to get better?" Why don't I know that I have a bunch of charlatans in my imperial hospital, and they use some foolish rhetoric to perfunctory me? ”

The little eunuch who delivered the news quietly looked in the direction of Gonggong Liu with a bitter face, and there was a signal for help in his eyes.

Gonggong Liu persuaded softly on the side, "Lord Xiao is afraid that he can be better, but for the sake of insurance, those doctors don't dare to speak too slowly, and this treatment and detoxification also varies according to the person's constitution." The slave pondered, the ground in the prison of the Criminal Department was wet and cold, if Lord Xiao had been there, this body would definitely not be able to get better. It is better for His Majesty to send someone to detain him in Zhaohua Palace. Although there has been no one living there for a long time, the palace people have not been lazy in cleaning, and it can be regarded as quiet, which is a thousand times better than the dungeon after all. ”

This Zhaohua Palace was the cold palace at the time of the first emperor, and several concubines who had made mistakes were detained, but in Mu Churan's generation, they were no longer used, and they have been vacant for more than ten years. Although it is a bit unlucky, for Xiao He, it is indeed better than the treatment of the prison of the Criminal Department.

In addition, Mu Churan pretended to be calm on the surface, but his concern for Xiao He, Gonggong Liu didn't know that this entry was just to catch the emperor's thoughts. Mu Churan didn't want to lock Xiao He in that cold prison for a long time, just one chance away.

Therefore, although Xiao He was already in prison, Mu Churan never ordered her official position to be stripped of her, or had any serious words, and when Gonggong Liu mentioned it, his face was not dissatisfied. Gonggong Liu has been observing his face and appearance by his master's side for so many years, if he doesn't even have this bit of eyesight, then he is afraid that his position as the head of the eunuch in charge of the internal affairs office will be in vain.

"Do as you wish, you yourself go and announce my message, and bring back all the imperial doctors who have been diagnosed and treated by me for me. Zhaohua Palace will arrange it now, and then transfer a team of guards to guard it day and night. Mu Churan naturally pushed the boat down the river and put this person back to him.

Although Zhaohua Palace is remote, it is also one of the harems after all, and Mu Churan's doing this will definitely cause some stubborn old ministers to protest, but after Gonggong Liu suggested this, he immediately got his promise, not reprimand. It also verified what Gonggong Liu thought in his heart, and once again understood that this Lord Xiao was unusual in the eyes of our emperor.

And the more the courtiers objected, the more he, the minister, was close to the emperor's heart. Although this trick is a slander, it is also a move by Liu Gonggong to protect himself, he clearly obeyed the emperor's wishes, and secretly raised his own worth.

According to his view, the whole world is Mu Churan, who he wants to favor, who to believe, and why should he explain to others. Gonggong Liu only wants to be in front of the emperor, his status remains unchanged, and the emperor likes to listen to what he says, which is enough, as for whether the emperor is the master, in fact, he really doesn't care too much. Or rather, he had no intention of thinking about it. Even if he is a hundred years later, Mu Churan will leave a faint name in the history books, what does it have to do with him Liu Fuhai.

He's already a person who is not in good health, does he care about so much?
