After Gonggong Yang left, Sun Minxue asked curiously, "Your Majesty, why did you suddenly change your mind?" ”

Yang Guang seemed to have known that Sun Minxue would ask this, so he was not surprised at all, and said slowly: "Master, you just said that the whereabouts of the Ten Thousand Poison Gate are extremely hidden, however, they are hidden, could it be that the mansion of the Hubu Shangshu is open to the door, and it is impossible for you to enter and exit?" ”

"It is quite difficult for ordinary people to enter the mansion of Tobe Shangshu, even if an assassin wants to sneak in quietly, it is never realistic. After all, the mansions of the courtiers are not as huge as the palace, and if there is a little wind and grass, all the subordinates can notice it at the first time. ”

"Therefore, in my opinion, the only way for them to enter the mansion and spread the plague is to join forces with the inner demons hidden within......"

"I see." Sun Minxue's eyes lit up: "Your Majesty means that this inner ghost will definitely be able to get the antidote to the plague in advance, so even if everyone can be infected with the plague, he will definitely become the only exception." ”

"Yes, exactly."

In front of his master, Yang Guang was too lazy to conceal it, and there was no need to conceal it: "This is the best way I can think of at the moment." ”

"If it turns out that I guessed wrong, then I have nothing to do."

This plague is menacing, different from the troubles faced before, and may affect the entire Jiangdu at every turn, and even endanger the safety of the Great Sui.

Therefore, the pressure on Yang Guang's shoulders can be described as quite large.

Of course, in addition to investigating the Ten Thousand Poison Gate, on the other hand, Yang Guang ordered someone to write a letter to Sima Dejiao again, asking him to inform Yi Narou and Hua Tuozi of the information he had guessed, to see if they could get a little inspiration from this incident and solve the plague.

If they can solve the plague and make the plague harmless again, then even if they can't find the poisoner who spread the plague, Da Sui doesn't have to worry about any worries.

With such a two-pronged approach, Yang Guang's confidence in handling this matter has undoubtedly increased.

Later, Yang Guang, with a sad face, returned to the harem.

After saying hello to Empress Xiao, he lay on the table alone, looking at the flickering candle flame in a daze.

As soon as she saw this situation, Empress Xiao knew that Yang Guang must have encountered difficulties again.

But today, she didn't take the initiative to ask, but got up from the recliner with a smile and quietly walked to Yang Guang's side.

"Your Majesty, do you know what day it is?"

"What day?"

Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, thinking that Empress Xiao was deliberately amusing herself, so she smiled bitterly and said, "Okay, concubine, I still have something to do, don't worry about me." ”

"If I disturb you, then I will leave now and go to Qin Guifei." As he spoke, Yang Guang was about to get up.

It's just that Empress Xiao put her jade hand on Yang Guang's shoulder, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, the concubine didn't drive you away, why are you in such a hurry?" ”

"Okay, okay, don't sell it, the concubine will tell you, tomorrow is Your Majesty's birthday!"

"Birthday?" Yang Guang looked at Empress Xiao in surprise, until he confirmed that Empress Xiao was not lying, Yang Guang couldn't help but sigh for a while, saying this, it has been a year since he crossed over......

Thinking about the scene of that day, he clearly remembered that at that time, Emperor Yang of Sui had just finished a birthday ceremony.

And the next day, he took his place.

"In this way, this plague is not a birthday gift from the Ten Thousand Poisons Gate?" Yang Guang did not have the slightest joy in his heart, but his face changed again, and his eyes were extremely serious.

I have to say that this birthday gift is indeed unforgettable.

"Your Majesty, in the past, your birthday was handled by the concubine herself, and on this year's birthday, the concubine is sick, I'm afraid it's not good...... Or, let's change a concubine to Zhang Luo, right? Empress Xiao asked softly.

"On this year's birthday, there is no need to do it, even if it does, it is just extravagant and wasteful." Yang Guang waved his hand and said weakly.

"That's not going to work." Empress Xiao raised her eyebrows slightly and said: "Birthday gift, this is the most important day for Your Majesty, and everything has not been going well recently, doesn't Your Majesty want to take this opportunity to rush to rejoice?" ”

"Chong Chongxi?" Hearing this, Yang Guang was quite moved.

Before his birthday, Da Sui suffered from the plague, which is indeed not a good sign, although he has never believed in those feudal superstitions, but similar to "Chong Chongxi" or something, even if he comes once in a while, it seems to be harmless, right?

"Okay, since Concubine Ai insists on doing it, then Qin Ruyan will go to Zhang Luo, but Concubine Ai, you must remember that you must not be extravagant and wasteful, everything can be simple."

"Okay."

Empress Xiao had a smile on the corner of her mouth: Your Majesty rest assured, the concubine will definitely satisfy Your Majesty. ”

"I've always been very satisfied with what you did personally." Yang Guang smiled and held Empress Xiao's jade hand, but in his mind, he was still thinking about the Ten Thousand Poison Gate.

The next day, Zhang Luo's birthday ceremony by Qin Ruyan was held at dusk as scheduled, as Yang Guang requested, everything was simple, there were only some old ministers who entered the palace, and the whole procedure was also very simple, Yang Guang, who was dressed in a yellow robe, worshiped heaven and earth as usual, and worshiped his ancestors.

And the ministers and harem concubines also took the initiative to offer congratulatory gifts.

Yang Guang looked at these congratulatory gifts, to be honest, there was not much fluctuation in his heart, these congratulatory gifts were just foreign objects, no matter how precious they were, it was difficult to enter the eyes of the emperor, after all, the whole world was his, what do you care about?

The congratulatory gift he really wants is the peace of the country and the people, and the prosperity of the people.

It's just that Yang Guang knows in his heart that he still has to go a long way to achieve this goal.

And at the subsequent banquet, there were also many courtiers who asked why the head of the household did not come, after all, he had never been absent from the birthday ceremony in the past. In this regard, Yang Guang also prevaricated a few words at will, saying that Hubu Shangshu had a little illness, and he authorized him not to participate.

Only then did the ministers deal with the past.

Otherwise, if they knew that Hubu Shangshu was infected with the plague, then the court would not be allowed to make a mess?

The time gradually came to the evening, and seeing that today's birthday ceremony was about to end, Yang Guangmeng poured a glass of wine, and then got up, preparing to take Queen Xiao back to the palace.

However, at this moment, Gonggong Yang hurriedly entered the palace and walked straight towards Yang Guang.

"Your Majesty, the old slave is here to bring you a birthday gift!"

Hearing this, Yang Guang's eyes widened, and he finally cheered up: "The matter that asked you to investigate, could it be that there is already a result?" ”

"Exactly!"

This time, Yang Guangcai was satisfied.

It seems that the so-called "Chong Chong Xi" is really special and has some effect!
