"There are too many people in Jingyun City, and it is obviously unrealistic to find out all the hidden slugs at once, so we need to solve this problem in batches."

Lin Xixue clasped her hands in front of her chest and paced back and forth in the hall, calmly and confidently explaining her plan.

"So the first step is to start with people who have relatively simple social relationships." She pulled out her right hand and raised her index finger.

"What did you just say?" The Emperor had apparently not heard this modern term.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand, you just need to know that most of the people in the internal affairs office are eunuchs and maids, and they eat and live in the palace, and they have relatively least contact with the outside world."

"Let's check the people of the Internal Affairs Office and the harem first, so that we can not only ensure that you don't have the eyes and ears of these monsters around you, but also safely assign these people who have no problems to become our helpers."

"This first step does sound reasonable, but it has a lot of flaws." The emperor finally caught Lin Xixue's flaw and hurriedly questioned it.

He was still haunted by Lin Xixue's previous insults, and subconsciously had a faint idea of proving himself.

"Although the external exchanges in the palace are limited, it is by no means no communication, and the concubines in the harem always have to go out to visit relatives, even if the palace is checked now, these monsters you are talking about, if they take advantage of the time to go out, they become monsters and then return to the palace, wouldn't it be in vain."

"So, your first step is obviously not feasible." The emperor was very satisfied with his rebuttal, and there was a slight smug in his eyes.

"There is thought, but not much." Lin Xixue's poisonous tongue is fully revealed, "When the palace is a closed environment, check out everyone in the palace first, and these monsters will no longer appear out of thin air." ”

"Even if there is some communication with the outside world, as long as we set up a screening point at the entrance of the palace to ensure that the people who return to the palace are not monsters, then the palace will naturally be relatively safe."

"But what if these monsters directly flew over the palace wall and directly entered the palace to attack?" What else the emperor tried to argue.

"It's not difficult, the assimilation of this monster is not completed instantly, strengthen the patrol in the palace, order the eunuchs and palace maids to visit and supervise each other every day, and re-examine those who have not appeared for a long time."

The emperor was silent, and the plan given by Lin Xixue was indeed impeccable.

"The second step is to expand the scope of investigation from the palace to the court, and call all the ministers in Jingyun City to bring their families and relatives into the palace and investigate them together."

"For the ministers or their families who find out the problem, they can follow the vine and trace it all the way to the source." Lin Xixue continued to elaborate.

"With such a fanfare investigation, I am worried that it will startle the snake and cause the mastermind to jump back in advance."

"Yes, so the second and third steps need to be completed at the same time, and while setting up a banquet in the palace to investigate the ministers, it is also necessary to hold a celebration outside the palace."

"On top of the celebration, the added wine and grain are sown, and these monsters hidden in the crowd are bound to do everything possible to stay at home and avoid participating."

"In this way, those who go to the street to participate in the celebration are normal people, and those who stay at home during the celebration are also caught, even if a small number of people are really staying at home because they are not feeling well, they will be carefully identified in prison."

"Therefore, at that time, you will first invite hundreds of civil and military officials into the palace, set up a banquet and hospitality, and stabilize their actions. But at this moment, Lord Shi Du had already led his troops to arrest people outside the palace. ”

"When the matter outside the palace is almost over, you can present the added wine."

"After taking three steps like this, you can completely solve these monsters that are mixed in with ordinary people, do you still have any questions?"

"I don't have any doubts, it's just that if the monster dog invited into the palace jumps over the wall and attacks me, what should I do, Shi Aiqing is arresting people outside at the moment, and it is impossible to protect me thoroughly."

"Don't worry, at that time, I will change my appearance as a palace maid and protect you secretly, are you satisfied?"

“.”

"If there is no doubt, quickly gather everyone in the palace to start the inspection, during the inspection, not a single mosquito in the palace can fly out, so as not to have a monster sneak out to ventilate the news."

As the saying goes, it is better to choose a day than to hit the day, the faster you act, the more you can catch the opponent off guard, Lin Xixue suggested that you start acting immediately.

"Shi Aiqing, the matter of blocking the palace will be handed over to you, and no one will be allowed to enter during the inspection."

"Weichen takes the order!"

Lin Xixue took out a handful of spiritual soil and said, "Dissolve this substance in wine, water, and tea, and order everyone to drink it, once the monster drinks it, it will die suddenly." And if someone doesn't want to drink it, it's even more self-defeating. ”

The action unfolded quickly, and Shi Xueqian summoned the Yun Chui guards stationed in the palace and sealed the entry and exit.

The reason why Shi Xueqian can only do it at this time is because he holds the Cloud Chui Tiger Talisman, and no one who belongs to the Cloud Chui Guard can disobey his military orders.

Therefore, even if there were slugs inside Yun Chuiwei, they had to obey Shi Xueqian's orders because of the power of this tiger talisman, and directly omitted the step of exploring inside Yun Chuiwei first.

At the same time, the emperor took Lin Xixue to the garden, ordered the head of the Internal Affairs Office to prepare cakes and wine, and summoned everyone in the palace.

Lin Xixue personally threw the spirit soil into the wine, and then used the word "hidden" to hide in the corner.

After a while, many masters and servants in the palace arrived one after another, and the back garden, which was originally quite spacious, was overcrowded at the moment, which seemed quite cramped.

"Grandpa Yao, have all the people in the palace arrived?"

"Long live Qiyu, there are two nobles who are unwell, and Concubine Yan is also sick, the Empress Dowager is chanting Buddha at the moment, and the internal affairs office has already come."

"Okay, since everyone is almost here, I will say it bluntly, there is wine and tea in front of me, as well as the sugar water boiled in the imperial dining room, you can come forward one by one, and drink any of them."

For a while, everyone looked at each other, and for a while they didn't quite understand what the emperor meant by such a move.

Seeing that everyone was slow to move, the emperor explained: "There is no deep meaning in this choice, everyone chooses according to their own preferences." ”

"Father-in-law Yao, as the head of the Internal Affairs Office, why don't you come and drink this first cup first?"

"Thank you, Lord Ronne! But with so many masters lined up in front of the old slave, how dare the old slave drink it first, or please drink it first."

"Grandpa Yao, what are you shaking?" The emperor patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "I let you drink this first cup first, and you drink it boldly, I want to see who dares to say a word!" ”

"The Holy Emperor's grace is immense, and the old slave is ashamed of it, so he is afraid."

The emperor personally poured a glass of wine, brought it to him, and said, "I personally poured wine for my father-in-law Yao, can my father-in-law appreciate his face?" ”

"Old slave, old slave" The more he spoke, the more nervous he became, and the cold sweat on his forehead broke out, so that he had to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead with his cuffs.

Seeing this, the emperor snorted coldly and directly poured this glass of wine on his face.

I heard a snort, and the wine poured on my face made a sound like boiling water poured on a burning coal
