Liu Zhuxue stood in the middle of a dozen or so, and was the only one who could barely walk. Although she did not inhale the poisonous gas released by Dai Guozi, she still had a part of it in her body. She felt her legs getting heavier and heavier, as if they had become two lumps of iron, and it was almost a problem to step away.
Not far away, the sound of horses' hooves was heard again. Liu Zhuxue took a deep breath and straightened her back again, thinking that the other party had come to help. The others didn't think much about it, she just regretted that she might have to live up to the kindness of the person who rescued her.
Gu Changming's stepping on the snow rushed to the front, and he was almost about to step on the ground and lay on the ground. Then, he saw Liu Zhuxue standing in the middle in a daze, and couldn't help shouting: "Miss Liu, Miss Liu, are you okay?" ”
Liu Zhuxue blinked her eyes vigorously twice, looked at Gu Changming intently, and when she saw that he was still followed by the little phoenix, she completely believed that she was not dazzled: "Brother Gu, Guozi and Master Su have fainted, you come and help." ”
Although Gu Changming heard her voice trembling slightly, he was still calm, and flew down from the horse, and had already come to her: "How could you faint so many people and inhale something poisonous?" ”
"I don't know, but it's the fruit that comes out. He had never mentioned that he had these things on him. Liu Zhuxue only saw a few people behind Gu Changming at this time, and they were very familiar. If you think about it again, it is a few cronies around Situ An, who have several faces,
How could Situ An's people be with Gu Changming, and it seemed that they had come together.
There are many people, but it is easy to do things, and Guo Zi and Su Xu were lifted up and placed on a ventilated carriage. As for the remaining dozen or so people, someone came over and asked Gu Changming what to do?
Gu Changming thought of Situ An's disagreement with Wu Wei, and squinted at the ground. These people were deliberately dressed in civilian clothes, and if they were determined to be traced to the end, there would be no more suitable person than Situ An.
"Since you dare to do something to the imperial court officials in Kaifeng Mansion, it is better to hand it over to Lord Situ to deal with." Gu Changming saw Liu Zhuxue's puzzled expression, shook his eyes, and then explained to her in detail, "I just don't know how much gambling poison gas they inhaled, and where is the antidote?" ”
Liu Zhuxue didn't ask very interestingly, she had never liked Situ Anji's subordinates. But Gu Changming personally brought someone over, she didn't have to talk much, she rescued the fruit and Su Xu first and then discussed it in the long run.
Gu Changming handed over all the remaining people and let the carriage quickly return home. He asked Liu Zhuxue to search the fruit, and since the fruit came prepared, he would not really put his life in it.
Liu Zhuxue obediently searched her body, and took out a small bag from the inside pocket of the fruit's clothes, which contained three red pills the size of rice grains. She hurriedly lifted the curtains: "Brother Gu, there is a pill on the fruit, but I don't know if it's an antidote?" ”
"Is there anything else you find?" Gu Changming asked directly.
"No, I've searched inside and out." Liu Zhuxue worked seriously, both of them in the carriage were unconscious, and she didn't care about the difference between men and women, and she didn't miss the corners of her clothes.
"Mostly, you feed one to each of them." Gu Changming was not present at the time, and he did not know the signs of poisoning. At this time, he can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, "Situ An is still at home, you don't have to pay attention to him later." ”
Liu Zhuxue hummed sullenly, knowing that love had to be a last resort, and it was also feng shui in turn. Situ An acted on their side instead, and the people on the opposite side were the people from the Criminal Division, which could be regarded as evenly matched.
"Situ An dared to do this, most likely there was the emperor's intention in it. If you still mind the past, you can avoid it. Gu Changming was very sympathetic to her feelings, after all, along the way, Situ An made her stumble and caused trouble.
"The big picture counts." Liu Zhuxue gave the pill to the two of them, and patiently stared at the two of them to see how they reacted. There was some distance back from the inn to Gu's house, and she didn't notice it at all, and when the carriage stopped, she saw Dai Guozi's eyebrows furrowed. She was overjoyed, and opened the curtain again and shouted, "Brother Gu, it should be an antidote, there is a reaction." ”
Gu Changming turned over and dismounted, not letting the carriage go through the main entrance, at least not wanting Situ An to run into it head-on. Liu Zhuxue followed the carriage around a small half circle, stopped from the small door in the backyard of the Gu Mansion, and the subordinates who had been waiting on the side for a long time carried the fruit and Su Xu into it respectively and sent them to the guest room. The white-bearded doctor, who had excellent medical skills, was invited again.
And Gu Changming entered through the gate by himself, Situ An heard the footsteps, put down the tea cup in his hand, and looked up: "Gongzi Changming has an angry face, could it be said that the people who raised the criminal department are really too much." Don't take the emperor and the queen mother in your eyes! ”
If Wu Wei heard this sentence on the spot, he would have to tremble at least three times. Situ An's big hat was directly buttoned down, and even an official couldn't stand it.
"It just so happened that Su Xu appeared nearby, was implicated, and almost lost his life." Gu Changming was open and honest, and before going out, he explained to Situ An that he wanted to bring Liu Dai and the others back intact. Now bring out Su Xu's experience first, indicating the seriousness of the situation.
"What! Lord Su Xusu was also ambushed? Situ An stood up suddenly, "The injury is not serious, where is the person!" This matter is not trivial, I must go back to the palace to the emperor. Can the prince of Changming be sure that this matter was committed by the Criminal Division? ”
"There are more than a dozen of them who have been put down, and one of them is a particularly powerful master. It has all been handed over to the supervision of Lord Szeto. They chased and intercepted them on the street, and even did not hesitate to use killing moves, and now Su Xu is unconscious and is receiving medical treatment in the house. Whether the person who cured the poisoner was sent by the Criminal Division or not, he could only ask Lord Situ to distinguish clearly. Gu Changming explained the matter clearly in a few words.
As soon as Situ An heard that all the suspects were in the hands of his subordinates, if he investigated clearly, he would not only be able to give Wu Wei a heavy blow in front of the emperor, but also a great achievement. Gu Changming didn't have the slightest intention of fighting for merit, since the person had returned, his attitude was very clear to stay out of the matter.
At the moment, it is definitely the key to hurry up the interrogation, where can Situ An still sit down, and he has to go out: "Lord Su's injury will be handled by Changming Gongzi for the time being, if you need the help of the imperial doctor......
"It's Doctor Wen who invites you." Gu Changming replied very implicitly.
Situ An has been walking in the palace all the year round, how could he not know the old Imperial Doctor Wen. This person has already left the palace, even if he goes out in person, he may not be able to invite him, and the Gu family's connections are really extraordinary.
"Changming Gongzi let go, Lingyou and Master Su will not be easily wiped off when they are attacked, and I will give you a clear explanation after I investigate clearly. When the time comes, see how Wu Wei explains this mess! Situ An saw the faces of the people in the Criminal Division in front of Gu's house, and he thought that Wu Wei must have sent someone to do such a thing, so he left angrily.
The little phoenix listened behind the curtain of the door, her light skills were so light and her steps were so light that she didn't even notice Situ An's anger. When the others walked away, she appeared and asked, "Situ An has an old feud with Wu Wei?" ”
"Wu Wei usually relies on the power of the Criminal Division, where will he put Situ An in his eyes. Situ An is just a guard beside the Queen Mother who has long been unfavored. It is in response to Miss Liu's words that feng shui takes turns, and it is really hard to say who is the master of the ups and downs of the officials in the DPRK and China. Gu Changming saw the worry in her eyes and said with a low smile, "They are competing against each other, which is a good thing for us." ”
"Sister Liu has already returned with the fruit?" When the little phoenix heard the news, she rushed directly to the front yard, ignoring the dynamics of Liu Zhuxue coming in from the backyard.
"I'm back, Guozi and Su Xu are poisoned, the doctor is diagnosing, let's go over and take a look." Gu Changming's smile almost flashed, things were not as simple as they seemed on the surface. He couldn't completely rely on Situ An to kill Wu Wei's forces. Situ An is not a fuel-efficient lamp, if he really knocks down Wu Wei, he may not really have their good fruits to eat next.
"Why are you so preoccupied?" Little Phoenix raised his hand, and his soft fingertips pressed twice on the center of his eyebrows, "Sister Liu came back safely, and the people from the Criminal Division were scared away by Situ An again, we can at least take a breath for the time being." ”
"The fruit is poisoned, or he put it himself." Gu Changming was angry and funny. Guozi's move was too dangerous, and he naturally knew that it was to protect Liu Zhuxue with a dangerous move. But after all, Su Xu was still present at that time, and if something happened to Su Xu, Guo Zi would also be charged.
There is only one possibility, this poison looks ferocious, but in fact it does not hurt lives at all.
Once Gu Changming figured it out, his furrowed eyebrows immediately relaxed: "Go and see the fruit, it's really nonsense!" ”
When he pushed open the door of the guest room, Dai Guozi really sat up, and Liu Zhuxue was holding a bowl of hot porridge ready to feed him. Old Imperial Physician Wen was taking the pulse of Su Xu next to him, and Su Xu also woke up and sat up, but his eyes were a little wooden, as if he hadn't woken up yet.
"How's the two of them doing?" Gu Changming saw that people had been able to sit up, and most of them were fine, and a big stone fell to the ground in his heart.
"I checked a few times, but I couldn't find the reason, I only heard this girl say that she was poisoned, but it doesn't look like poisoning." Doctor Wen shook his head and said, "The girl insists that she is poisoned, but there is evidence of poisoning?" ”
Liu Zhuxue was dumbfounded, it was the first time she had encountered a doctor asking for evidence that a patient was going to be sick. If it weren't for the fact that Gu Changming had invited him, she would have doubted whether this person's medical skills were exquisite!
"Since it doesn't look like poisoning, dare to ask what it looks like?" Gu Changming asked politely.
"When I was young, I used to go to the southwestern frontier in order to collect several medicinal herbs. The customs and habits over there are completely different from those of the Great Song Dynasty, and there are people in the village who are good at making Gu, and almost everyone will raise Gu worms, but the level of ability is different. Those Gu worms are miraculous, they can cure and kill people. The best Gu cultivator can even manipulate the Gu worms that have been cultivated since childhood to kill people thousands of miles away. Old Imperial Physician Wen stroked his white beard, "There is a kind of Gu worm that can crawl through its nostrils just like the situation in front of it, making people sleepy. ”
When Gu Changming heard the word Gu worm, he was already convinced for seven or eight points. Old Imperial Physician Wen definitely didn't know that they had indeed gone to the southwest border once ago in order to escort Gu Mu Suna back to her hometown. Could it be that the fruit was brought back from there?
"This kind of drowsy Gu worm is not difficult to solve, there is a kind of pill made of the scale powder on the wings of this kind of Gu worm, in case of Gu poison, take the pill in time, and you will be able to wake up quickly." Old Imperial Physician Wen looked at the fruit with a smile, and then looked at Su Xu, "It seems that I have said it." ”
