The scorching sun of Chang'an is scorching Chang'an, and the scorching sun of Luoyang is also scorching Luoyang.

Under the continuous scorching sun, Zhang Guo's body finally turned black, and thick water had begun to flow in some places, attracting countless flies.

It wasn't until the white maggots began to poke their heads out of the folds of Zhang Guo's skin that everyone thought Zhang Guo was dead.

After all, the time of ten days has finally arrived, Zhang Guo's body is crawling with maggots, the Daomen is high and Ye Fashan, Li Chunfeng used a piece of cloth with maggots on his face to restrain Zhang Guo with a sad face.

Zhang Guo's death is a very inevitable thing for Li Hong, a person lying under the scorching sun for ten days, although there is no shortage of drinking water and food, these ten days will not be able to survive.

For Li Hong, it was nothing more than the death of a god stick, which was not a big deal, but the queen mother once again proposed to the emperor that she should undertake the important task of Yaxian when she learned that Zhang Guo did not come back to life, but died.

Zhang Guo died, and the emperor had a strong feeling of being deceived, so much so that he didn't have a good face for Ye Fashan and Li Chunfeng these days.

The cultivation that was originally going to be carried out every day was also put down by the emperor, and once again led his giant bear to wander in the tall bamboo forest, as for the government affairs, now it is generally handed over to Wu Mei to take care of, and he only makes the final decision.

After Li Hong read Yun Chu's letter, he looked at Yin Erhu and said, "The prince wants you to monitor Zhang Guo's grave?" ”

Yin Erhu said: "That tomb is an empty tomb, and the subordinates dug up Zhang Guo's tomb yesterday night, and as a result, there was nothing in it, only a note, because the prince only asked his subordinates to monitor, and there were no other actions, so we restored the tomb to its original state." ”

"What's on the note?"

"Poor road!"

"Hiss-" Li Hong gasped and said in surprise: "This guy is not dead?" ”

Yin Erhu said: "The secret letter from the prince to his subordinates said that maggots are born maggots, and death is death, which are two completely different things. ”

Li Hong gritted his teeth and said: "People are all born maggots, and they are not dead?"

I saw Zhang Guo's corpse grow maggots, grow up, pupate, and finally break the cocoon into a fly, and the people I saw with my own eyes are not only the lonely king, but there are no less than 10,000 people in Luoyang City who see Zhang Guo's corpse with maggots.

I don't believe that one person can be wrong, but can it be said that ten thousand people can also be wrong? ”

Yin Erhu said: "The prince said that flies lay eggs, and they can become maggots after three hours, and then the maggots gradually become larger, and they become pupae after seven days, and they break out of the cocoon and become flies in about ten days, which is not surprising." ”

Li Hong's face turned pale, and he said slowly: "Why does the master know so clearly?

Could it be that the master can too? ”

Yin Erhu said: "The prince said that when he confronted the Turkic army in Qiuci City in the past, it was a scorching summer, and the battle at the head of the city was extremely fierce, and countless people died in the city every day, and they did not have time to clean up the corpses.

The most terrible thing is that the wound of the wounded soldier, once there is a maggot, the wound of the wounded soldier will slowly heal, and those wounded soldiers who only suppurate and do not have maggots will eventually die of gold sores.

Therefore, in the city of Qiuzi at that time, many wounded soldiers would deliberately attract flies to maggots on his wounds in order to survive. ”

Li Hong said with a pale face: "So, Zhang Guo attracted flies in Luoyang City, but in fact, it was to treat his injuries?" ”

Yin Erhu shook his head and said: "I don't know, my subordinates didn't see Zhang Guo, and when Ye Fashan and others buried Zhang Guo, we had no way to see Zhang Guo being put into the coffin, so there was no way to judge."

Junhou said that in the next period of time, Zhang Guo must be recuperating from his injuries somewhere, and Junhou hopes that His Royal Highness will think more about how to deal with Zhang Guo and their next means, instead of standing idly by. ”

Li Hong stood up, paced back and forth on the Zhaoyang Palace, and thought about it for a long time before he said to Yin Erhu: "The lonely king knows, you can go." ”

Yin Erhu left after giving the salute, Li Hong was the target he received the order to serve and protect, of course, this is only when Li Hong is in danger, on weekdays, he is the prince, and there will naturally be no shortage of light and dark guards around him.

He also wanted to bring some scrub to Xue Changfeng today, which is an ointment produced in Chang'an City with some kind of magical fine particles added, I heard that it has a miraculous effect on removing dead skin, and it is estimated that that guy can use it.

Li Hong sat in the Zhaoyang Hall for a long time, and even the crown princess invited him to watch the new songs and dances rehearsed by the people of the new palace.

At this moment, his mind is full of the strange scene of flies laying eggs, finally becoming pupa, and finally turning into flies.

If another person says this, Li Hong will definitely be furious, because this is obviously teasing him, the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

However, these words were said by the master, and Li Hong subconsciously believed one eighty percent, the remaining one percent came from his pride, and the other percent came from his trust in his own knowledge.

"It's impossible, people have maggots, how can they live?"

Li Hong muttered to himself, but no one in the Zhaoyang Hall could answer his words, and after a while, Li Hong said in a deep voice: "Someone is coming." ”

The eunuch Chunxi had been waiting at the door for a long time, and when he heard the prince summoning him, he immediately walked into the main hall and bowed down and said, "The slave is here." ”

Li Hong said: "The lone king needs a death row prisoner who has committed the most heinous crimes. ”

The eunuch was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied: "Presumably, there are people in the prison of Luoyang Ling that His Highness needs, and he needs the slave and maid to ask for it secretly, or take the bright road?" ”

Li Hong frowned and thought for a while: "Take the bright road, and at the same time, increase the number of such death row prisoners to five." ”

Chunxi bowed down to receive the order and withdrew from the Zhaoyang Palace.

After Li Hong issued the order, he seemed to be much more relaxed, came to the window and stretched his waist and said to himself: "I really hope this is the master is joking with me......"

Yin Erhu came to the small courtyard where Xue Changfeng was hiding, and lay at the mouth of the well to learn a bird call, and Xue Changfeng immediately stuck his head out of the darkness.

This guy looks disgusting now, his whole body is black, red, and his half-naked body is covered with thin white skin, Xue Changfeng tore a piece of skin the size of a palm with his hand, and smiled at Yin Erhu in his mouth.

Yin Erhu retched, patted his chest and said, "The things I have been exposed to in the past few days are so fucking disgusting. ”

Xue Changfeng said: "More disgusting things are still to come, what am you doing with Helan Minzhi who I want you to check?" ”

Yin Erhu said: "On the one hand, a reward was issued to arrest you, and on the other hand, King Lu was visiting officials from all walks of life endlessly, drinking and feasting every day.

Now he is the most popular figure in Luoyang City. ”

Xue Changfeng finally stopped tearing the dead skin from his body and filling it in his mouth, and said a little seriously: "Is my test period over?" ”

Yin Erhu said: "It can only be the most junior spy, and I am afraid that it will not be possible to take charge of a bull's ear." ”

Xue Changfeng smiled: "This is nothing, it won't be long before I will become your superior, as long as the Lord recognizes my identity." ”

Yin Erhu threw the scrub he brought to Xue Changfeng and said, "But you haven't said why you want to change your skin until now." ”

Xue Changfeng thought for a moment and said, "With what I know about Helan Minzhi, this guy is a sober madman now.

Once this kind of person has a goal, he will persevere in achieving it, you say that he came to Datang for the wild land of Xiao Bolu, I don't think it's like, judging from the information you brought to me these days, that guy didn't take Xiao Bolu as a thing at all.

Because compared to sheep, Xiao Bolu is not worth mentioning.

Moreover, as far as his crazy wife did in Yangtong, I am afraid that he also instructed behind his back.

Wherever this guy goes, it will be a disaster for him, I don't believe that he will be honest in Datang, and there must be things that we don't grasp at the moment.

So, I wanted to get in touch with him personally after the skin was changed. ”

Yin Erhu said disapprerovingly: "In Datang, what does he want to do, what can he do?" With his little strength, it is not worth mentioning at all in front of the giant Datang, and there are at least a hundred people who can crush him to death with one finger.

Even if you are the boss and I, as long as the Lord gives orders, I can get rid of this scourge in a short time. ”

Xue Changfeng said with a smile: "Tiger Lao Nature has such power, I don't doubt this, the problem is that the Lord set up such a big situation for this guy in the first place, it can't be as simple as just trying to kill him."

Judging from the character of the Lord, if you don't squeeze out the maximum value of this guy, the Lord will not kill him easily. ”

Yin Erhu said: "Okay, since you have an idea, I will support you, but don't, although you are a complete bastard, no one wants you to die early." ”

Xue Changfeng threw away the pack of scrub in his hand and asked, "How to use it?" ”

Yin Erhu said with a smile: "After bathing, I smeared this thing on my body, and then scrubbed it vigorously, I heard that there is nothing wrong with it except for pain." ”

Xue Changfeng nodded, looked up at Yin Erhu and said, "Finally, let me ask, is my current hiding place still safe?" ”

Yin Erhu said: "Of course it's safe." ”

Xue Changfeng smiled: "Give me another half a month, and I will let you see a brand new Xue Changfeng." ”

Yin Erhu watched Xue Changfeng hide in the darkness again, and couldn't help but sigh, if this guy wasn't because of his weird temper, by now, at least he should be his deputy, with this guy here, the prince can worry a lot less, and many things can be done more secretly.

Stepping out of the small courtyard, Yin Erhu came to an extremely lively large courtyard, the courtyard was full of people, including no less than 20 shops.

This was originally the most inconspicuous miscellaneous courtyard among the many markets in Luoyang, although it seemed to be a place where three religions and nine streams were mixed, and there were no secrets at all.

However, apart from them, no one knew that the three sects and nine rank figures in this courtyard were all from Chang'an.

It took five years for these people to gather here, and according to the records of the government, there were at least fifteen families in this courtyard, who were born and raised in Luoyang.

When Yin Erhu left the big courtyard, the men, women and children in the courtyard seemed to not see him, and they were doing their own things, as if they were normal.
