Chapter 248: Three Days Red
The moon shadow is faint, the courtyard is idle, the maids who have been lit stand like clay sculptures, and the sound of speech in the house reaches Zhong Chichi's ears without missing a word.
"When I meet the saint today, I have taken care of the recommendation of Chu Feng, you just have to hand over the roster again, Li Changwei doesn't dare to refuse again!" Li Yutai sneered.
The man flattered a few words, and said with emotion: "Your Highness cherishes Chu Feng so much, but it's a pity that he has failed His Highness!" β
Li Yutai snorted lightly: "It's all those who can't be supported by those who don't have the ability, and if they are gone, they will be gone......"
"Your Highness still has the quota for the pavilion selection?"
"Who am I going to give it to?" She paused and said in a low voice, "Those things you did, your hands and feet are clean, it's really discovered, and I can't protect you!" β
The man chuckled: "Your Highness feels so sorry for the minister, the minister really can't repay ......"
Then there was nothing to say, Zhong came back to his senses, picked up the miscanthus pot, and quietly left the princess's mansion.
Shen Sanzhi said that the leaves of miscanthus are all green, and red leaves only exist in legends.
Legend has it that the miscanthus grass is red for a thousand years, the red leaves are poisonous, and after three days of carrying the poison, the poison disperses and fades, and it still returns to the green leaves.
This kind of poison, known as "three-day red", can only exist for three days, and it cannot directly poison people.
"Three-day red" is a poisonous fish, and it must be a live fish.
If you eat a live fish, you will die, and the flesh of the fish will be poisonous.
Shen Sanzhi said that the poison of "three-day red" is very chicken.
But she felt that there was no more wonderful poison than this.
No wonder Cui Wenji can't detect poison after she dies, and the poison that only exists for three days is simply a godsend!
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but tighten her teeth, slapped open the door and rushed in, sneering: "Isn't this it?" β
Shen Sanzhi, who was writing something on the desk, looked up in amazement, moved his gaze from her face to the thing she was holding in front of her, and nodded slowly.
Zhong Chi looked down and said after a while: "Can it still grow red leaves?" β
Shen Sanzhi sighed lightly: "Three days red, I just saw it once by chance in a broken ancient book, and there is almost no record of the red leaves of miscanthus, and I just casually mentioned it to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess at that time." β
Zhong Chichi smiled.
If it weren't for the Soul Chasing Array that identified Li Yutai as the real murderer, she would have left some room for doubt about "Three Days Red".
But now it seems that it was such a coincidence!
Shen Sanzhi looked at the miscanthus with a regretful expression, and said: "Three days of red, only three days of poison, even if it was really her poison, now there is no evidence at all-"
β¦β¦
"It's okay if you don't have evidence, it's useless to have evidence anyway." The man smiled at the corners of his mouth, his face was pale, faintly gray, and lifeless.
Zhong Chichi couldn't help frowning, and took his hand to touch his wrist.
Last time, Shen Sanzhi came back from the clinic, and only said that he was weak and weak, and he had to make up for it for many years.
Although she really wanted to talk to Zhou Yunqing about the whereabouts of the magic weapon, in view of his half-dead state, she still waited for two days to come.
However, two days after Shen Sanzhi's diagnosis and treatment and prescription of medicine, Zhou Yunqing's pulse was still worse than she imagined.
Zhong Chichi frowned and drew a gnosis talisman, and probed into his body, only to see that his face changed again and again, and said, "It's been almost a month, why is the yin qi still so heavy?" How long has it been since you saw the light of day? β
He withdrew his hand and rolled up his sleeves, moving as slowly as an old man.
"I like thisβ" he smiled softly, "I have worked with her in the secretary province for three years, and she has never taken the initiative to come to me except on official business, but that night, she took the initiative to walk towards me, and she wanted to reach out and touch me......"
"I don't know what yin qi is, I only know that this is what she left, I want to keep it, I can't bear to ......"
Zhong Chi nodded and said, "Then you can stay for another half a year!" β
His eyes ached: "Is it only half a year?" β
Zhong Chi said "um" and said, "You will die in half a year, and you can have your own yin qi!" β
Seeing that Zhou Yunqing was stunned, she sneered: "What do you think? Is the yin energy of the dead soul used to nourish the body? β
Zhou Yunqing was silent.
Zhong Chichi continued to smile and said, "Li Yutai has already shaken hands with the Yuan clan under the mediation of His Majestyβ"
"When the Dou family committed the crime, Mrs. Yuan Dou asked Li Yutai to help intercede, but Li Yutai refused to shirk it, and the Dou family had already had a dislike for her!" Zhou Yunqing said coldly.
Zhong Chi nodded in agreement: "Yes! Mrs. Yuan had an opinion on Li Yutai, Li Yutai explained that the private banquet that day was to give Yuan Qiniang a male pet, and it would also be estranged from Yuan Qiniang's brothers and sisters, and finally leveraged the relationship between Li Yutai and the Yuan family by one percent, and made persistent efforts, ten years later, Li Yutai should break with the Yuan family, and there are still Yang and King Jing...... Well, when Li Yutai falls, I will definitely give you incense to comfort you! β
Zhou Yunqing: ......
Zhong Chi knocked on the table and said, "I heard that you only rested for seven days and went back to repair the book, according to this painstaking attitude, I don't know if you can last another half a month, I don't care about anything else, let's talk about the whereabouts of the magic weapon first!" β
Zhou Yunqing was still stunned and didn't speak.
Zhong Chi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "You don't want me to kill Li Yutai to count, do you?" β
When Zhou Yunqing came to her with Cui Wenji's discovery, she persuaded her to investigate Cui Wenji's death with the reason that she had the same goal, although Zhou Yunqing's purpose was to avenge Cui Wenji, but she didn't seem to have promised anything, right?
Zhou Yunqing was stunned and hurriedly denied: "It's not-"
Suddenly, his eyes moved, and he looked at her and said softly: "After the last time the lady did the law, I was sent to Xiao Sanlang, and after waking up, I heard Xiao Sanlang say that the lady invited the imperial doctor in the palace the next dayββ"
"Xiao Saburo said, although he doesn't know what I promised the lady, but from now on, I just have to fulfill my promise to the lady, and he will find a way to enmity Eleven Niang's hatred, and he must not teach the lady to run for this matter and be sad-" He sighed faintly, both sad and envious, "Xiao Saburo treats the lady with deep affection and ......"
Zhong Chi was also a little moved when she heard it, but what she was more concerned about was-
"You weren't fooled by him, were you?" Xiao Huaibi has a terrible number of eyes.
Zhou Yunqing was stunned, shook his head and said, "Xiao Sanlang didn't inquire about that night. β
Zhong Chichi nodded reassuringly and got back to business: "You said last time that Emperor Zhou Ling exchanged the ritual weapon for the six magic weapons in the Xiao family's hands, what happened later?" β
Emperor Zhou Ling ordered the palace people to do witch dances, study witch arrays, and asked Xiao to ask for witch weapons, it is very likely that the emperor of the previous dynasty himself was a witch.
Now that he knows the whereabouts of the magic weapon, and asks for it, why is Yubi still in the Xiao family?
"It is recorded in the living records of Emperor Zhou that one day, Emperor Zhou Ling saw that the jade that Xiao Renyuan admired was ancient jade, and asked a few words, and a few days later, he gave the Son of Heaven six weapons." Zhou Yunqing said, "In the same year, Emperor Zhou Ling rewarded the Wang family, the Xie family, and the Yuan family. β
