"Is the emperor really thinking like this?" Song Jinyan raised his eyebrows and looked at Kou Shu directly.

Kou Shu was stunned, she wanted to find out the cause of her father's death, although it was excusable, but Kou Shu didn't want Song Jinyan to know too much, so she immediately shook her head: "The concubine just thinks that now that things are at an urgent juncture, she wants to find out the details of the people of Lanling in the palace, that's all." ”

Song Jinyan glanced at Kou Shu meaningfully, then waved his hand, there seemed to be a deep meaning in his eyes, and said: "In this case, the queen and I both know in our hearts that there are now spies in the palace of Lanling Kingdom, if the queen really has a heart, how about helping me find out the spies in the palace first?" ”

Kou Shu was stunned, and reacted to Song Jinyan's meaning in her heart, so she nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, the concubine understands." ”

Waving his hand, Song Jinyan motioned for Kou Shu to retreat, and when Kou Shu retreated and closed the door, Song Jinyan made a slight gesture. A shadow on the beam of the house came to him: "Yan Yi, go and find out what the queen has been doing recently." Why do you want to go to Nanzhao for no reason. ”

Yan Yi clenched his fists and floated out of the house.

Walking out of the imperial study, Kou Shu sighed in annoyance.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?"

Kou Shu shook her head, originally thinking that this was a good excuse to make Song Jinyan willing to help him get out of the palace, who knew that now instead of getting Song Jinyan's support, he dug a big hole for himself, and there are hundreds of thousands in the harem, how can he say that he will find it.

Now the only way is to start from the side of Rong Guiren.

Kou Shu carefully calculated it and secretly made up her mind.

Chilled by the cold wind blowing in the face, Kou Shu's body trembled violently, shaking like a sieve, and the mandarin duck on the side saw it, and hurriedly stepped forward and draped a cloak on Kou Shu's shoulder: "Niangniang - let's go back to the palace." ”

"No," Kou Shu waved her hand, "Let's go to Rong Guiren." ”

"Mother?" Ripple pouted and asked: "That Rong Guiren is crazy now, and he bites his tongue and can't speak, the slave maid heard that several girls in her palace have been killed, such a terrible person, let's not provoke it." ”

Kou Shu was amused by Ripple's words, stretched out her finger and lightly tapped Ripple's head, and smiled; "If you're afraid, I'll go with Yuanyun Yuanyun."

"No, it's not, Niangniang......" Ripple hurriedly waved his hand: "Niangniang, don't you know, that Rong Guiren originally said that there were ghosts, and now he has arranged his palace like a mourning hall, which is covered with all kinds of strange things, Niangniang, hey Niangniang, wait for me-"

Kou Shu no longer listened to the ripples' gestures, and had already walked straight towards the hall of the Rong nobles.

Originally, the emperor wanted to build a palace for Rong Guiren, but he also blamed Rong Guiren for not being angry, and a good hand of cards was brutally broken, which provoked no one in the palace to see him now, and the construction of the palace was naturally shelved.

Kou Shu stepped forward, "squeak-" and pushed open the door of the temple.

As soon as he pushed the door open, Kou Shu was smoked by the smell of fierce incense, with a faint smell of blood, Kou Shu frowned, turned his head to look, and saw that the windows in the hall were all locked tightly, and they were covered with rune paper with flowers, which looked very weird, and the smell of blood came from the table that entered the door, and there was a big copper basin of blood.

"Mother, that's dog blood." Yuan Yun behind him was accustomed to the rivers and lakes, and he was well-informed, so he stepped forward and opened his mouth to introduce Kou Shu; "Folklore has it that dog blood can ward off evil spirits and keep evil spirits from getting close, so people often use dog blood on the table."

Kou Shu settled down and walked forward slowly, only to feel an even stranger smell coming, which mixed the fragrance of incense powder with the bitterness of medicinal herbs, as well as the smell of smoke. Kou Shu frowned, only to feel a shadow flying towards her.

"Something!" Yuan Yun reacted extremely quickly, and pulled out the sword in his hand as soon as possible.

Kou Shu felt that something was wrong, held down Yuan Yun's sword, and hurriedly said, "Yuan Yun, don't be impatient." ”

When the shadow approached, Kou Shu realized that this was Rong Guiren.

When Rong Guiren was about to run in front of him, a few girls behind him reacted, hurriedly pressed Rong Guiren, and kept reassuring: "Rong Guiren, this is the queen mother, this is the queen mother, not a ghost, not a ghost." ”

Rong Guiren didn't seem to understand at all, and he still kept throwing at Kou Shu.

Kou Shu frowned, this noble man was even more crazy than when he saw him before, what the hell was wrong?

"The medicine prescribed by the superintendent of the royal court, can you give it to your master?" Kou Shu opened her mouth and said to the girl who was supporting Rong Guiren on the side.

The girl shook her head and said to Kou Shu: "The medicine prescribed by the superintendent of the royal court, the master refused to drink it as soon as he opened his mouth, and he fell to the ground every time, and he didn't take a mouthful of medicine in the past few days." ”

"And what about your master's meal?"

Rong Guiren stopped struggling, and was driven left and right like a weak beast, his eyes were red, and he kept panting.

"Dining ......" the girl thought: "The master's meal is very good, and when it is time to eat, he is still willing to eat, but the master is injured in the tongue and can only drink porridge now, and he is just drinking porridge in a different way these days." ”

Kou Shu's brows furrowed even deeper, Rong Guiren's tongue was bitten off by himself, without his tongue, he should not be able to detect the taste at all, originally Kou Shu thought that Rong Guiren didn't want to eat, but since he was willing to drink porridge, why would he refuse to take medicine.

"You can bring me the medicine that Rong Guiren was taking," Kou Shu began.

The girl who was supporting Rong Guiren couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, then nodded and said, "Okay." ”

When the decoction was served, Kou Shu squinted her eyes and sniffed it slightly for a while, then she felt a strange sour smell wafting from her, a trace of confusion flashed in her heart, and she turned her head to Mandarin Duck and said, "Mandarin Duck, do you remember the prescription that the Governor of the Royal Court opened that day?" ”

The mandarin duck was stunned for a moment, and the confusion in Kou Shu's eyes became even stronger, and said: "Let the governor of the royal court come to show Rong Guiren again, and the medicine to be fried will be sent to the Changle Palace of the main palace to be fried, and as for this bowl of medicine, the palace will take it away." ”

The girl on the side was stunned, but she didn't expect the queen to come here, but she left so easily. Before she could speak, Kou Shu had already left with a few girls.

As soon as he walked out of the palace gate, Kou Shu turned his head and whispered to the mandarin duck on the side: "This medicine has been added with a bitter taste, and Rong Gui has a wound in his mouth, which is the reason why Rong Gui is really unwilling to take medicine." ”

"Niangniang is saying that the person who did it is still working behind the scenes?" The mandarin duck was stunned for a moment, and then spoke.

Kou Shu nodded, her eyes glazed: "You go and check carefully, who will come across the medicine taken by Rong Guiren." ”
