Chapter 56: Qin Tianjian's Doubts Remain Unresolved (10)
The meaning of Ye Mu ginseng couldn't be more obvious - "Breaking the Cocoon Gu".
The second prince, Ye Mutao, is not a waste material, and naturally knows how to maintain the confidentiality of the Dali Temple case.
It's just that the hall master is full of laughter, and no one can refuse his request.
Ye Mutao finally couldn't stand his soft grinding and hard bubbles, and agreed to lend him the case file for one night.
Ye Mu Shen understands the rules, and he is not embarrassed by Ye Mu Tao.
"Second brother is the best! Don't worry, I will keep my mouth shut about you and that Song Qing! ”
"Ahem, you just don't know anything, can't you?"
"Second brother, you look like you're lost and depressed, I said I don't know anything, do you believe it?"
Ye Mushen slyly pointed to the fragment of the porcelain cup in Ye Mutao's hand, "Second brother, everyone is gone." ”
Blood dripped from Ye Mutao's palm, and beautiful blood flowers splashed on the ground.
"I still have some things to talk to him about......" Ye Mutao clutched the fragments tighter, and the blood in his hands flowed more happily, "You must not lose half a piece of paper in these files." ”
Ye Mu nodded and watched him leave.
Satisfied, he held a thick stack of files and entered Ye Mutao's private study through the side door of the Yinghua Palace.
After an all-night stay, Ye Mushen finally finished reading these dense records.
Among the people in Luoyang City who broke the cocoon, three days ago, only Tang Huaian had some identity.
No, Tang Huai'an not only has an identity, but also status and fame, and even the emperor respects him very much.
The others, on the other hand, are nobodies.
In the words of Ye Mushen, it is "not a pity to die".
No matter how you look at it, the reason for Tang Huai'an's Gu is very strange......
After Tang Huai'an was unwound, Ling Shang found a lot of people who had fallen into the Gu one after another—of course, most of them were corpses.
Even if it is a living person, judging from the symptoms, it is all Gu in front of Tang Huai'an.
Even, the corpses of the earliest Gu people, in addition to the hollowing out of their hearts, will also ulcerate all over their bodies, and when they are found, the bones are crawling with maggots.
This cocoon-breaking Gu seems to be "evolving" little by little.
The bodies of the last few victims were intact, except for the heart nest that had been gnawed by countless maggots.
Moreover, it can be seen from the dossier that the "Cocoon Breaking Gu" evolved later, and it could also make the Gu sufferer clearly feel the pain of ten thousand ants devouring their hearts when they were alive.
Died under this long torment......
Even the well-informed Ye Mu Shen couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his back.
It seems that the mysterious Gu man has some kind of paranoid mind, and he has to die if the Gu man is punished.
As for the crucial witness Ling Shang, he did not cooperate with the second prince's investigation from beginning to end.
He just used his keen sense of smell to find those people - the living ones were solved by Gu, and the dead ones were reported.
Besides, whatever you ask him again......
Ye Mushen looked at the red cross on the file, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.
An incomparably vivid scene was reflected in front of his eyes—
Ye Mutao angrily asked Ling Shang about the suspicion of teaching the poisonous Gu, but Ling Shang ignored it and looked cold.
Several censors took turns to ask for advice, but Ling Shang was annoyed by the question, threw down the sentence "no comment", and left in a hurry.
Ye Mushen regretted that he had been wandering for too long and missed such an interesting scene.
The bigger suspicion in this case may lie in Mrs. Zhou.
After Tang Huai'an was rescued by Ling Shang, no one in Luoyang City was found to be a Gu later than him—except for Zhou Taifu Zhou Hao three days ago.
Ye Mushen once believed that those nameless people who were the first to be Gu were just the souls who paved the way for Qin Tianjian's death.
But three days ago, Mrs. Zhou Zhou Hao also fell for this Gu.
Due to Ling Shang's timely treatment, the matter has not yet reached Song Xiaomin's ears and eyes, and it has not yet been recorded in the file.
Both of them are important figures in the court today.
But the affairs in charge of the two of them have nothing to do with each other, and they don't necessarily have any intersection on weekdays.
Ye Mushen thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what the connection was between the two.
Moreover, the person who fell under the Gu was clever in his methods, his actions were not leaky, and his methods were cruel and vicious......
Was it a whim to kill these two important ministers of the court, or was there another premeditated plan?
