Chapter 327: Nangong Yuan's Poison
Nangong Yuan's poison is similar to the poison she once had;
Geng Xing'er fled with the help of a master who had access to the ancient formation-
Zhong Chi Chi suddenly thought of the tenth person who besieged her in the Yunting Valley.
The assassination against her was meticulously and perfectly, and the moment the dagger pierced into her heart, she felt terrible for the first time from someone other than Yang Yuemian.
If Qiao Yu met the same people this time-
"Immediately send an order to Jinzhou, Yangzhou, and Tongzhou to arrest the Tibetan spies!" After meeting with Wang Ziwei and others, Zhong Chichi immediately ordered, "All entry and exit checkpoints are under martial law, and take the portraits of Qiao Yu and Geng Xing'er to arrest!" ”
The prince looked slightly shocked, and hesitated: "This-"
Zhong Chi Chi took a token from his body, threw it to Ji Chuan, and said, "Please send someone to pass it first, and Ji Chuan will then arrive with the token!" ”
The prince glanced at the golden words "Ru I am here" on the token in Ji Chuan's hand, and hurriedly bowed his head.
After arranging these, Ouyang Xu had a chance to step forward, glanced at Dongfang Qi, who was inexplicably hostile to him, and asked, "Didn't find Qiao Xiaolang?" ”
Zhong Chichi nodded and said, "Ah Qiao and Geng Xing'er suspect that they were taken away by the Tubo spies!" He turned around and instructed Wang Ziwei, "Bring me the squirrels, I want to see Nangong Yuan's corpse!" ”
After that, he turned over his horse and took the lead in galloping in the direction of Xunyang.
So far, that Tubo witch has only done two things, poisoning Nangong Yuan and taking Qiao Yu away.
Qiao Yu still has to rely on Qiandeng Pavilion to find it, she can only wait; But Nangong Yuan's poison, she always wants to see it, maybe she can see what is famous.
Nangong Yuan's body was still lying in the coffin, covered with the lid of the coffin, not nailed.
Without the permission of the government, and without relatives in charge, the coffin cannot be covered for funeral.
When he arrived, he pushed the lid of the coffin open.
Zhong Chi Chi stood on the side, and when the lid of the coffin was pushed open a little crack, she faintly smelled the smell of rancidity.
The corpse was parked for about ten days, and even if it was cold, it was normal to have a little peculiar smell.
Zhong Chi Chi took the handkerchief handed to him and covered his nose, and his heart hung up inexplicably.
When the lid of the coffin was pushed open in the corner, something suddenly flew out of it!
Zhong Chichi's eyes shrank suddenly-
"Cover!" She let out a loud cry, and the sword light flashed from her waist, and she slammed into the thing that had just flown out of the coffin.
Ouyang Xu and Dongfang Qi reacted very quickly, and as soon as her words fell, the two of them shot out together and pushed the coffin lid back.
Ouyang Xu raised his head, and saw that the other party's eyes were full of hostility, smiled back, and walked towards Zhong Chichi: "What's the matter?" ”
Zhong Chichi was frowning at his sword.
There were a few drops of thick dark green liquid on the body of the dark blue sword, which was not very conspicuous to look at, but when you looked closely, it was disgusting.
Look at the two things on the ground that she had slain.
It is two black moths, which are larger than ordinary moths and appear more hideous.
"Burn Nangong Yuan's body along with the coffin!" Zhong Chichi said with a heavy gaze.
"Does the lady recognize this poison?" The prince asked slightly.
"It's not poison, it's a plague!" Zhong Chichi said with deep eyes, "If the corpse is in the soil, the water and soil will be stained, and you can't eat or drink; Seven days later, poisonous moths grew on the corpses, and wherever they went, the plague spread—"
"I am afraid that those who have come into contact with corpses before have been infected with the plague, and each has its own ...... of contact."
The prince's face changed slightly, and he bowed: "Xunyang must lock the city, please leave quickly!" ”
Zhong Chichi shook his head and said, "It's okay, I won't be infected with the plague!" ”
In the past, when Yang Yuemian was there, she would perform surgery to ward off illness and evil spirits during the Dragon Boat Festival every year, so she would never get sick.
During the Dragon Boat Festival this year, she also performed surgery on herself herself, at least until the Dragon Boat Festival next year, she will not get sick.
"If the lady stays in Xunyang, I'm afraid Your Majesty will also come." Ouyang Xu said softly.
Zhong Chi couldn't help but purse his lips and smile, there was really such a possibility.
Although when she performed surgery on herself during the Dragon Boat Festival this year, she also drove away evil spirits and dispelled diseases for Li Changye, even if he came to the epidemic area, it would not be a big problem, but she was just waiting for Qiao Yu's news here, and once there was news, she was about to leave, and he couldn't meet him when he came, so there was really no need to make this trip.
"Let me write a letter! Go to Beijing with the envoy to show affection! Zhong said slowly.
Half an hour later, the gate of Xunyang City was urgently closed, and the fast horse rushed out in all directions, sending a letter to the neighboring states and counties from the prince of Jinzhou Thorn History.
There is also a six-hundred-mile expedited, day and night, to the north of the Beijing Division.
On the nineteenth day of the winter month, near noon, the urgent letter entered the city gate, went to the palace gate, turned to the guards, and went straight to the Zichen Palace.
In the Zichen Palace, His Majesty the Emperor is discussing with the Prime Ministers.
Gao Fu got the letter, entered the palace without delaying for a moment, and sent the letter to the imperial case under the dissatisfied eyes of the prime ministers.
His Majesty the Emperor glanced at it, his eyes tightened, and he raised his hand to pause the speeches of the prime ministers, and couldn't wait to open the letters.
A letter that was not long, he was sometimes smiling, sometimes frowning, and even the prime ministers who were observing His Majesty the Emperor were worried.
Fortunately, at the end, His Majesty the Emperor laughed out loud.
The prime ministers just breathed a sigh of relief, but they heard him speak: "The epidemic has been found in Xunyang, Jinzhou, ......"
The plague is an astonishing disaster at any time, and it may even shake the country's capital, and the unresolved drought in Huainan and the plague in Jinzhou are not a good sign.
Li Changye and the prime ministers put aside what they had discussed before, discussed the plague for nearly half an hour, and then sent the prime ministers down to make arrangements.
When there was no one in the hall, he returned his gaze to the letterhead.
Nine times out of ten, the letter was about business, and the handwriting flew arbitrarily, and it seemed careless, but in the end, the writing slowed down, and every word was persuading him not to go to her impulsively—
"Every year the Dragon Boat Festival drives away evil spirits and dispels diseases, and it has never been left behind...... The little plague is really not enough to worry about, Your Majesty does not have to worry, let alone look for an opportunity to go south to Xunyang, and I will not stay for long, if Your Majesty rushes south, you may not be able to meet ......"
“…… Don't think about it too much, I think Your Majesty will miss me even more, and I will return as soon as possible and be good with you. ”
How early is it? How?
Li Changye read and looked at the last sentence, and suddenly smiled: "Someone-"
……
At this time, Zhong Chi Chi was guarding the medicine furnace while listening to Dongfang Qi.
"That secret book is a treasure passed down from generation to generation in the sect, if the saintess of the previous generation is still there, you may be able to ask about the source, but now, it is unknown!"
Zhong Chi pondered for a moment and asked, "How did the Hidden Sect come about?" ”
Dongfang Qi said: "The founder of the Hidden Sect is the first generation of saints, Chang'an, surnamed Miao Mingxian-"
Zhong raised his head slowly, his eyes burning: "The surname is Miao? ”
Dongfang Qi was slightly stunned, nodded and said: "Yes, the holy daughter and sect master of the Yin Sect, including me, can be said to be the descendants of that one, every holy woman is surnamed Miao, but the surname of the sect master has changed several times." ”
"What was the first sect master's last name?" Zhong Chi Chi was inexplicably a little nervous.
Dongfang Qi's eyes suddenly changed, and he stared at her for a long time before he said softly: "The surname is Zhong ......."
