Chapter 1177: The Empress Dowager's Order
Zhang Xuezhou did not sleep.
From the early morning summons to enter the Anle Palace, until the first watch in the evening, this guy's eyes were still wide.
There is a scene outside the Anle Palace, and inside the Anle Palace is another scene.
The palace ladies and eunuchs in the Anle Palace have changed three waves of people, and the empress dowager has slept twice, and this guy is still very energetic.
It's not good for people to be not energetic, and it's obviously not normal for people to be too energetic.
Everyone on the first watch day could still think that Zhang Xuezhou was excited for a while, but after the next day, even the eunuchs and Gong'e sensed that something was wrong.
Under the supervision of everyone, this guy didn't sleep for two days and two nights.
Even if a person who has advanced cultivation does not sleep for two days and two nights, there will be at least a trace of tiredness on his face, and he will need to sleep for a short time to recover.
But Zhang Xuezhou's cultivation has been supported for two days and two nights, and his face has not changed until now.
"I'm sorry, I pulled your beard two days ago!"
"I seem to remember pulling your skirt, the East is abrupt!"
"I seem to have yelled at you, I'm sorry, I really couldn't control myself at that time!"
……
Listening to Zhang Xuezhou's gentle apology, everyone realized that this guy's sanity was a lot more normal.
Of course, no matter how Zhang Xuezhou apologizes, this guy is still very bold, after all, this is Anle Palace, not a market.
Zhang Xuezhou dared to apologize, but the eunuchs and palace ladies who were re-rotated to Anle Palace were squirming and did not dare to speak.
"Queen of Heaven, you're here too!"
"Don't call me the queen of heaven, just call me the master!"
"Okay, Queen of Heaven!"
After releasing the Nine Dragons Ding Wei to adjust the rest, the Dou Tai Master also came to check.
She couldn't believe Zhang Xuezhou's state, and even slept a little longer last night, and decided to stay up late today to take a look at the other party's situation.
She hoped that Zhang Xuezhou's situation would not be a return to the light, and she also hoped that the other party could continue to be normal after the Nine Turns of Aqi Technique.
Only in this way can the Empress Dowager accept the medical skills of the medical officer.
But Zhang Xuezhou's current state is really too good, which makes Mrs. Dou a little worried.
She hoped that Zhang Xuezhou's state was fake, or that he had snuck off a few times, instead of going on like this all the time.
No one can go on like this forever.
Although Medical Officer Chun Yu mentioned that Zhang Xuezhou's crazy behavior may have been stimulated, Medical Officer Chun Yu also mentioned that Zhang Xuezhou's situation is likely to be a resurgence.
Zhang Xuezhou can return to the light, but the Empress Dowager cannot return to the light.
If you can't live long after receiving the medical officer's treatment, it is better for the Queen Mother to rely on ambergris and other ways to continue her life.
Although ambergris and other things are expensive to prolong their lives, and the process is full of pain, it is better than dying.
I have to say that it is a very sad thing to wait to see the patient's condition, but Mrs. Dou is glad that this patient is not too boring, at least the other party's mouth can keep talking.
"You're such a poor man!"
Mrs. Dou is not familiar with Zhang Xuezhou, and the topics asked in unfamiliar situations can only involve family members.
This made Zhang Xuezhou tumble a lot of things, from living in Zhangjiazhuang to all kinds of hunting, to all kinds of hardships to make a living, and then to everyone eating a loose meal of snake meat and chicken, and finally the whole village almost disappeared, and Zhang Xuezhou also mentioned that his parents have not been heard from for several years.
This made Mrs. Dou feel related.
It is difficult for her to empathize with Zhang Xuezhou's things, but Zhang Xuezhou is very organized when she talks about these things, and the story and logic are very strong, which makes her not tired of listening to them.
"With a lot of hunters in the village, it's impossible to disappear hundreds of people for no reason, it's very likely that they were deceived and moved in whole ways!"
When Mrs. Dou was nostalgic for the story, the old voice of the Empress Dowager came from behind the screen behind the main hall of Anle Palace.
"The target of the other party's deception should be your village chief and elders," the Empress Dowager said, "These methods may be achieved through eloquence, ecstasy, puppetry, etc., but there are few other reasons!" ”
"Are you saying that there are liars who have deceived our entire village chief?" Zhang Xuezhou exclaimed.
"This situation cannot be ruled out" The Empress Dowager behind the screen coughed twice, and then replied: "This is the lowest method, as long as you are eloquent, you can deceive the people of the entire village, if there are people in your village who go out to develop and owe money, the other party may deceive the people of your entire village to sell them in other places with crooked thoughts, and the possibility of acquaintances committing crimes is relatively high." ”
"There are only a few villagers in our village who went to the Northern Military Region to serve as soldiers, and most of them have either died in battle or returned to become hunters again, and no one has ever developed outside," Zhang Xuezhou said.
"If there is something remarkable in your village, or a treasure of feng shui, some crooked cultivators may use ecstasy and other medicines to confuse people, so as to drive the people of your village away," said the Empress Dowager.
"I have a friend from the same village who went back last year to see that the village was barren, the roads were difficult to pass, and our whole village was deserted," Zhang Xuezhou replied.
"Then there is only one last possibility, someone has influenced the village chief and elders of your village through puppetry and other control spells, and then left with the entire village," the Empress Dowager said, "but the other party's motive is a problem!" ”
"Puppetry!"
Zhang Xuezhou's eyes were a little solemn.
Of course, he remembered the events of a few years ago, and he also knew what great cultivators were around Zhangjiazhuang at that time.
This involves Jin Chang, who can use puppetry, and also involves Su Bugui, who is good at using medicine.
These are two extremely suspicious objects.
But there is no interest in arresting the villagers, and he is willing to stay in the nine-foot Taoist temple.
Zhang Xuezhou's eyes were on Jin Chang.
Jin Chang does have extremely clever puppet skills, and he can also take away the entire village quietly and silently, and it is normal for the other party to act normally if the other party appeared in the north back then.
Moreover, Jin Chang has been tracking down the whereabouts of the non-return, perhaps very close to Zhangjiazhuang at that time.
But as the Empress Dowager said, Zhang Xuezhou could be suspicious of Jin Chang, but he also had difficulty understanding Jin Chang's motives.
"I have to check the file of the King of Huainan back then, I can't ask Jin Chang to check himself on this matter, but I can ask Lei to do it, and the second bow is also in the Huainan Palace, so I can help some!"
When his eyes were set on Jinchang, Zhang Xuezhou also roughly locked the possible direction of exploration.
Excluding the years when Jin Chang was displaced from everyone, Jin Chang was more of a service to the King of Huainan before.
Just like Jin Chang came to Yangling to investigate, Jin Chang's purpose was more dependent on the needs of the upper echelons.
It's just that Zhang Xuezhou can't figure out what value the villagers of Zhangjiazhuang have, and it is worth the princes and kings of a place to think about.
It was difficult for him to figure out the relevance, but with the reminder of the Empress Dowager, Zhang Xuezhou felt that he could check the suspect first.
The authorities are obsessed with bystanders, he is too familiar with Jin Chang and others, and Jin Chang and others have never mentioned these things, which makes Zhang Xuezhou really rarely focus on Jin Chang's investigation.
