Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Three Corpse Brain Divine Pill and Skynet
After a period of confusion, under the diagnosis and treatment of the imperial doctor, it was finally confirmed that Emperor Liang and the prince had no worries about poisoning except for the skin trauma bitten by Sima Lei, and Emperor Liang was relieved.
"Concubine Yue, what kind of poison is this Sima Lei?" Emperor Liang himself is suspicious, for him, the wine that can poison people is terrible, but the wine that can make people crazy is even more terrible.
"Your Majesty, the concubines don't know, the concubines admit that the prince took Sima Lei into the palace, but there are some careful thoughts. But the concubine just wants the Nihuang County Lord and Sima Lei to meet, what is poisoned, it is all slander against the concubine, the emperor, you can see the emperor! ”
As Concubine Yue cried and fell to the ground to complain, Emperor Liang looked at Sima Lei, who looked like a beast in his eyes in the distance, and the Nihuang County Lord who was speechless and had an extremely cold face.
Just about to move, his body was pulled by Sima Lei's bite thigh injury, and it was a sharp pain.
Emperor Liang asked Imperial Physician Jia at this time, "In your opinion, why is this Sima Lei crazy?"
Imperial Doctor Jia at the bottom first said at this time: "This ......" Then, his eyes crossed the faces of everyone present, and when he saw the murderous intent flashing in the eyes of Concubine Yue and the prince, he hurriedly said: "This, according to the old minister's eyes, Sima Lei is a sudden madness, not poisoning."
Hearing what this Imperial Doctor Jia said, although the Nihuang County Lord didn't say a word, his face was even more ugly.
Although at this time, he was already sure in his heart that this must be the poison of Concubine Yue, and Emperor Liang himself was very jealous of this strange poison mastered by Concubine Yue. But at this moment, Emperor Liang absolutely could not impose a heavy penalty on Concubine Yue, after all, poisoning the county lord was not a small crime.
At this time, Emperor Liang touched his eyes, didn't look at everyone, and then said: "There is no real evidence for this matter, and in a hurry, I can't judge. However, Sima Lei trespassed into the forbidden garden, and offended Long Wei, and I remembered that he was sick, so I would not pursue it. However, his father was not strict in discipline, and he was demoted to one grade and fined for three years. ”
Such a punishment obviously could not calm the anger of the Nihuang County Lord. Emperor Liang then said: "The Nihuang County Lord has guarded the southern border for the imperial court for many years, and has worked hard and made great achievements, so he will give the Nihuang County Lord a hundred taels of gold, a thousand brocade horses, and eighty pieces of jade to show his merits."
At this time, the Nihuang County Lord suddenly knelt down to Emperor Liang and said, "Your Majesty, it is incumbent on Nihuang to guard the southern border. I was really ashamed to be rewarded by His Majesty, but when I came to the capital, the madness spread, and Nihuang was not adapted, for fear of contracting this disease, and asked His Majesty for permission, and in a few days, Nihuang will return to Yunnan. ”
Emperor Liang hurriedly said at this time: "Eh, Nihuang, what are you talking about? You have worked hard in Yunnan for so many years, and it is easy to come to the capital, you should cultivate well, you can rest assured, I assure you that this Sima Lei's madness is not the cause of others. There will never be a second person who suffers from this madness but him. ”
At this moment, a small yellow door outside suddenly rushed in and shouted: "Emperor Qiqi, something is wrong!"
Emperor Liang, who was angry, scolded when he heard this, and then shouted angrily: "What are you panicking about? What big thing can make such a fuss about you? ”
The little yellow door knelt on the ground at this time, panting and replied: "Your Majesty, the four palace maids in the Zhaoren Palace suddenly went crazy, and they bit people when they saw them, and they have bitten several palace maids in just a while." It just so happened that Concubine Yue was not there, and the slave didn't dare to make his own decisions, so he had to come to tell the emperor. ”
The Nihuang County Lord suddenly said coldly at this time: "It seems that Sima Lei's madness is still contagious, but he just walked around the Zhaoren Palace, and this time, there are four palace maids who have fallen into madness like him, really."
Emperor Liang shouted at the little yellow door at this time: "This little thing is still used to annoy me, so I will pull it down and kill me with a cane."
Then Emperor Liang said to everyone: "The Yue clan is not strict in discipline, so that such a major event happened in the palace without knowing it, punish the Qing Li Yuan to think about it, and you can't go out without a will."
At this time, the Nihuang County Lord knew in his heart that it was impossible for Emperor Liang to do more today, and it was impossible for him to let himself go back. Yes, in his face, he gradually returned to flatness.
"I'm tired, let's get out." Emperor Liang closed his eyes tiredly, and leaned back weakly on the pillow. Everyone in the hall did not dare to say more, and quietly withdrew.
Queen Yan is naturally the executor of punishing Concubine Yue, and the prince is helpless, seeing his mother being taken back to the harem, he can only throw a few resentful glances at the little yellow door that he has just reported.
And just after everyone left, Emperor Liang suddenly regained his former vigor in an instant, and asked Meng Zhi: "Meng Qing, you were born in Shaolin, and you have traveled in the rivers and lakes for many years, do you know what is the situation with Sima Lei?"
Na Meng Zhi rolled his eyes at this time, and then replied: "According to what Wei Chen has seen, that Sima Lei must have just been hit by the most terrible poison in the rivers and lakes in recent years, the Three Corpse Brain Divine Pill."
"Three Corpse Brain Divine Pill? I seem to have heard of this thing, but I can't remember it clearly, Meng Qing, you and I have a good talk. Emperor Liang thought about it for himself at first, but soon, he gave up this thankless move.
Meng Zhi made a slight adjustment at this time, and then seemed to be reminiscing, and then said: "In the past ten years, a mysterious organization has risen on the rivers and lakes, called Skynet. The reason why this organization was able to rise rapidly was because of the countless masters in its organization, and secondly, because of this three-corpse brain divine pill. ”
"There are three kinds of corpse insects in the Three Corpse Brain Divine Pill, and there is nothing wrong with them after taking them, but at noon of the Duanyang Festival every year, if you don't take the antidote to restrain the corpse insects in time, the corpse insects will come out. Once it is in the brain, the person who takes this medicine will act like a ghost, and even his parents and wives will bite and eat it. Skynet forced some heroes to take this drug, and threatened them with an antidote every year, so that they would obey the drive with all their hearts. Therefore, over the years, Skynet's power in the rivers and lakes has been expanding day by day, and no one knows how many masters have been controlled by the Three Corpse Brain Divine Pill. ”
Emperor Liang suddenly asked at this time: "By the way, you said a few days ago that the leader of the Netnet Organization once entered the palace at night, and it was related to the turmoil in the Youting Court. It seems that in this palace, it has also been infiltrated by the people of Skynet? ”
Meng Zhi frowned at this time and said: "This minister is not good, but the person in the net once made a move with the minister that day, and with the other party's martial arts, it is impossible to sneak into the palace silently." From this point of view, most of the other party in the palace has internal responses. ”
When Emperor Liang heard this, he suddenly sighed and said, "Okay, I know, you go down!"
