Chapter 420: Ten Thousand Gu Kings

When Concubine Shu heard this, she suddenly raised her eyes and glanced at the two of them, with a thick distrust in her eyes.

Concubine Zhu's face was embarrassed for a moment, and she said, "In this palace, there are Vermilion Bird Army everywhere, and we have no chance." ”

Concubine Fang also said: "My sister and His Royal Highness are all protected by trustworthy people, how can we start?" ”

They were telling the truth, but Concubine Shu was suspicious.

Concubine Zhu persuaded: "It's better to find out what His Royal Highness and the nurse have eaten today as soon as possible." ”

Concubine Fang also said: "This poison attacks quickly, it must have been imported at night." ”

The two pulled Concubine Shu's reason back, and she glanced at her personal female official Luo.

Female Officer Luo bent her knees and said, "Niangniang, the relevant people are already waiting." ”

Concubine Shu nodded and said, "Call to the palace and interrogate here!" ”

The palace is an eventful place, so censorship and questioning are all compulsory skills for female officials.

Lady Luo ordered all the people who had been in contact with Li You and the nurse from yesterday to before Li You's illness to bring them into the temple, and first each of them was given a pen and paper, and ordered them to write down the itinerary for this time.

The people around Concubine Shu were all literate and hyphenated, and for a while, there was only the sound of writing in the hall.

After everyone had finished writing, Lady Luo read all the papers.

After that, they were interrogated one by one in front of everyone.

If it is not right, or if there is no time to witness, you have to tell your itinerary backwards.

With such a process, it's extremely difficult to lie.

While he was recounting the story backwards, the sound of a child crying suddenly came from the inner sanctum.

Concubine Shu immediately stood up and almost ran to the inner hall.

Yang Mu had already opened the curtain and got off the bed.

Concubine Shu threw herself on the side of the bed all of a sudden, and when she saw her son crying loudly, she turned her head and asked worriedly, "What's wrong?" ”

Yang Mu nodded and said, "It should be fine." ”

The three imperial doctors who had been waiting by the bedside hurriedly stepped forward to cut Li You's pulse in turn, with surprised expressions.

"Congratulations Niangniang, Your Royal Highness is fine!"

Concubine Shu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly tears rolled down, holding the child, crying silently.

Yang Mu asked: "There is also a nurse?" ”

Only then did the three imperial doctors lead Yang Mu to see the nurse.

The nurse's situation is much better than Li You's, her face is just red, and it is obvious that she has not yet poisoned her heart.

Yang Mu followed the method just now, and after giving the nurse internal force, the nurse suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, and then slowly opened her eyes.

After the doctor's diagnosis, it was determined that the nurse was fine.

When the nurse was invited to the main hall, it happened that Lady Luo locked up the biggest suspect - the eunuch Zhang Guangmao.

After the identification of the nurse, Zhang Guangmao had sent her a hot towel last night.

She was about to breastfeed Li You, so she washed it with a hot towel.

Li You was naturally poisoned when he ate milk stained with poison, while the nurse was relatively shallow because it was used outside the skin.

In this way, Zhang Guangmao was almost identified.

Concubine Shu gritted her teeth with hatred and ordered someone to torture her, she wanted to know who was behind the scenes.

Zhang Guangmao has followed her since she entered the palace, and he can be regarded as a cronie.

Who reached out to her?

Zhang Guangmao was executed in front of the public, but as soon as he was beaten more than a dozen times, he suddenly screamed, pinched his throat hard, and laughed maniacally.

When everyone hadn't come back to their senses, Zhang Guangmao had already spurted out a mouthful of black blood and fell to the ground and died.

Yang Mu quickly stepped forward and asked his carotid artery, then raised his head and shook his head slightly at Concubine Shu.

Man, already dead.

Concubine Shu was so angry that she threw the teacup on the table on the ground, causing the minions to kneel and tremble.

She pointed to the corpse and said loudly, "Check it out for me!" ”

Yang Mu frowned and said, "Auntie, an autopsy is needed." ”

Concubine Shu's face was full of anger and said, "Test! ”

Yang Mu waved his hand, and the Vermilion Bird Army came in, carried Zhang Guangmao's body out, kept it properly, and ordered someone to ask the servants of Jingzhao Mansion to come.

Zhang Guangmao died, Li You and the nurse were no longer worried about their lives, and Concubine Zhu and Concubine Fang were gone, and they both said goodbye.

Concubine Shu also relieved herself at this time, she was not so angry, she took Yang Mu's hand and said gratefully: "Sister Mu, if it weren't for you, You'er would ......"

Thinking of the child's gradually cold body just now, Concubine Shu was afraid.

Yang Mudao: "She is also my cousin, as an older sister, I naturally want to protect my younger brother." ”

Looking at the bright smile on Yang Mu's face, Concubine Shu felt that she was gradually getting warmer.

After a while, she asked, "Could it be that a master is secretly killing people?" ”

She was talking about Zhang Guangmao's violent death.

Yang Mu shook his head slightly and said, "Unless you are a first-class master, it is impossible to kill people in front of me." And there is only one first-class master in the capital, Duan Jiulang. ”

Concubine Shu never suspected that it was Yang Mu, the highest martial artist on the scene, who killed someone, because if it was Yang Mu, why save people?

So when Yang Mu spoke, she still believed it.

Yang Mu soothed: "Aunt still clean up the people around her again, let's wait for the result of the work." ”

Jingzhao Mansion was an expert, and after he finished the examination, he first reported the preliminary autopsy results, saying that he would have to wait for three days to check the changes in the corpse.

In the palace, Gonggong Yan, who was sent by the Empress Dowager to take charge of this matter, was in charge, and left the body in the palace and could not be carried away to prevent changes.

He also sent someone to check Zhang Guangmao's abnormality during this time.

Yang Mu invited Liu Yishou to conduct an autopsy with him.

She always felt that Zhang Guangmao's appearance when he died was like Gu poison.

After Liu Yishou conducted an autopsy, he used a small clay jar to fill the Gu worms hidden under the scalp in the corpse and came to see Yang Mu.

Yang Mu looked at the little thing in the crockpot and asked, "Sure enough, it's a Gu worm?" What kind of Gu is this? ”

Liu Yishou's face was very solemn, and he said, "Zimu Gu." The mother Gu is controlled by others, but she can take the life of the child Gu host at any time. ”

Yang Mu looked at his expression and asked, "This Gu is very powerful?" Why is Mr. Liu so serious? ”

Liu thought about it for a while, but he didn't know what to say, and after a while, he said: "This matter is a bit unbelievable, in fact, I don't know if it's true or not." ”

Yang Mu ordered someone to serve tea and said, "Mr. Liu said slowly, listen to your ears in the next ear." ”

Liu Yishou saw that the tea bowl sent was actually made of gold, and he immediately perked up, drank tea, and thought about it, and then said: "Look, princess, that statue doesn't look like a spider without legs?" ”

Seeing Yang Mu nodding, Liu Yishou continued: "This kind of bug, called spider lice, is not a Gu worm at all, and it is not poisonous in itself. If you say, you can manipulate this kind of insect to kill people, unless it is the Miao Jiang Ten Thousand Gu King. ”

Yang Mu asked, "What is the Ten Thousand Gu King?" ”

Liu Yishou said: "I haven't seen the Ten Thousand Gu King either, it's mentioned in my master's codex, saying that there is a Ten Thousand Gu King in Miao Jiang, who can turn all the insects in the world into Zi Gu." Those who hold the Ten Thousand Gu King, a hundred miles away, can let the host of the Zi Gu obey their orders, and if they want to kill the host of the Zi Gu, they can also let it go crazy and die. ”

Yang Mu's heart moved, isn't this Zhang Guangmao's way of death?

He grabbed himself by the neck and laughed wildly, before suddenly dying.

Liu Yishou said: "It's just that this Ten Thousand Gu King is just a legend, no one has seen it." ”

Yang Mu asked, "Sir, Master's Codex, did you mention who this Ten Thousand Gu King belonged to?" ”
