Chapter 188: Heart Devouring Gu
He Hailan is a frequent visitor in the palace these days, of course, only a frequent visitor to Kunning Palace and Cining Palace, He Hailan will go to the palace to greet the Queen Mother, and then go to chat with the queen, speaking of chatting with the queen, in fact, most of the time with Murong Lianxing, although she has a medical book of Doctor Zhang, but there are many things that she can't understand herself, of course, she has to consult Murong Lianxing.
What's more, she wanted to master all of Murong Lianxing's Gu control techniques before the autumn hunt.
As soon as He Hailan entered the palace on this day, she met Concubine Xian who was accompanied by the palace people, and she didn't feel anything when she saw Concubine He Hailan, to be honest, she seemed to be seeing the emperor's other concubines for the first time, and the last time she was at the gate of the palace, she had a glimpse from afar.
Seeing those people walking towards her, He Hailan naturally walked there, and then saluted, Concubine Xian looked at He Hailan, who was bent to herself, and raised her brows slightly, "Isn't this the county lord of Enxi?" Did you go to the palace again today to talk to the queen? ”
He Hailan responded, "Back to Niangniang's words, yes." ”
The grandmother beside Concubine Xian said, "Your Royal Highness the County Lord, our master is Concubine Xian Niangniang." ”
"I've seen Concubine Xian Niangniang." He Hailan bent his knees again.
Concubine Xian smiled, walked over and took He Hailan's hand, chuckled, and said affectionately, "I have always heard the queen mother mention you these days, and when I saw it today, it really deserved its reputation." ”
"Thank you for your concern." He Hailan quietly withdrew her hand.
Knowing the identity of the other party, He Hailan couldn't get close, after all, this person was King Yi's mother and He Haiyao's mother-in-law, and she didn't want to have anything to do with them.
Concubine Xian looked at He Hailan's movements, glanced at He Hailan silently, withdrew her hand and smiled, "Since I entered the palace, I have a very good relationship with the queen, after she got sick, I have been unable to sleep and eat, looking for famous doctors to treat her, but there is no effect, now that you have cured the queen's illness, I should be thankful." ”
Saying that, she glanced at the grandmother behind her, the grandmother recruited the palace people, the palace people walked out with the gift box that had been prepared a long time ago, and saluted He Hailan, He Hailan raised her eyebrows, it seems that this is not a walk here, but she has been waiting for her here for a long time, she is really, very honored.
He Hailan showed appropriate surprise on her face, and raised her eyes to look at Concubine Xian, "Concubine Xian, what are you doing?" ”
"I've wanted to give you this gift for a long time, but I haven't had a suitable opportunity, but now that I've met it, I'm naturally going to give you a gift." Concubine Xian looked at He Hailan with a smile, "Please don't excuse the county lord." ”
"So, I'll take it." He Hailan took the gift, "Thank you, Concubine Xian." ”
The grandmother beside Concubine Xian looked at the back of He Hailan leaving, her brows furrowed tightly, and she said in a low voice, "Niangniang, this Lord Enxi was originally a healer, can't she see it?" ”
"That's the Gu worm that my brother bought with a lot of money from the Western Xinjiang, she will burrow into people's bodies and suck people's essence and blood, but it won't be so easy to be discovered, it's not a poison or a weapon, it's just a worm." A bug that can't be seen clearly.
This insect is hidden in the clothes, as long as He Hailan wears it, the insect can drill into her body along her pores, even if He Hailan doesn't wear this clothes, she can't escape death, so what does her death have to do with her.
In the Kunning Palace, He Hailan looked at the silk in the box, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, at this time, Murong Lianxing came over, handed the small box to He Hailan, and said in a deep voice, "This Gu worm is called Heart Devouring Gu, and it is the most vicious of our Xinjiang Gu, but this Gu worm is very rare, it generally grows in the depths of the ant nest above the peak of a very high altitude, and there is no price on the market, I didn't expect you to make people so jealous." ”
He Hailan carefully put away the Gu worm and said with a smile, "Yes, it seems that my life is still quite valuable, and someone actually thought of using the Heart Devouring Gu to kill me." ”
"Don't take it lightly, this Heart Devouring Gu is pervasive, you can't even see it, since someone wants to use this method against you, you should be even more careful." Murong Lianxing frowned and said, "It's just that I can't figure out why Concubine Xian would kill you." ”
"Because I cured the queen mother, and became the daughter-in-law of the queen mother." He Hailan raised her eyebrows, and smiled coquettishly at the queen, "Niangniang, you see, I even gave up my life to save you, if you can't become the winner of this palace fight, then I am thankful." ”
"You girl." The queen looked up at He Hailan from the book, and said angrily, "I really don't know where you came from so many words that I don't understand, but I have read all these books you gave me, and I can't figure it out, why don't the queens in these books end well?" Is it because the queen is too weak? Speaking of this, the queen pursed her lips, "There is a queen who has a scheming, but in the end she still can't escape and enter the cold palace." ”
"Niangniang, I'm not asking you to draw conclusions to others." He Hailan put away the box, walked over, put out the books, pointed and said, "I have been writing these stories day and night these days, not for you to criticize, but for you to learn the advantages of those victors in it, we must be scheming and kind, because the wicked will never survive the finale." ”
The queen seemed to suddenly realize something from the words to He Hailan, her eyes lit up, and she pointed at He Hailan, "You girl." ”
He Hailan winked at the queen, "Also, the heart of guarding against people is indispensable, you see, I just took a little precaution against Concubine Xian, and I found the Heart Devouring Gu from this clothes and saved my life." ”
"You can rest assured." Murong Lianxing picked up He Hailan's clothes and checked them again, and said, "I have checked all the things sent to the queen from other palaces, and even the things sent by the emperor. ”
He Hailan bowed, and Murong Lianxing frowned, "Concubine Xian can't harm you once, she will definitely harm you a second time, you have to be more careful." ”
He Hailan smiled, "I know, besides, am I the one who suffers in secret?" ”
If she was the kind of person who suffered, she wouldn't be so diligent and run to Kunning Palace now.
Seeing He Hailan's confident appearance, Murong Lianxing sighed, "I have to keep an eye on it in the future." Glancing at the queen who had gone to read again, Murong Lianxing sighed, "You are a county lord and someone who wants to do everything to harm you, not to mention our mother." ”
"Pity the star," the queen looked up, "I'm worried about you." ”
"Niangniang, look at what you said, mother-in-law, I like to worry about you." He Hailan got up with a smile, the corners of her mouth hooked slightly, and she glanced at Murong Lianxing, "But mother-in-law, you can rest assured, I'm not the kind of person who suffers for nothing." ”
