Chapter 5: Poisoned to death?
Recalling what Gonggong Cao said in the Jingshi room during the day, Chu Feng finally understood why Gonggong Cao was in such a hurry to ask for someone.
It turned out that he was going to send himself to the empress to be a personal eunuch.
Also, those dead eunuchs must have a lot to do with this matter.
As for the inside story, Chu Feng is not clear for the time being, but it is certain that going to the empress's side as a personal eunuch looks infinitely beautiful on the surface, but in fact, it is not a good thing.
Otherwise, Gonggong Cao would not have gone to the Jingshi room in a short period of time to ask for twelve eunuchs.
And the fate of those eunuchs.
It all ended in death.
Thinking of this, Chu Feng decided to look for an opportunity to set up a set of Cao Gonggong's tone to see if he could get some useful information out of the other party's mouth.
But for now.
I still have to send Liu Wenzheng and these people away.
Chu Feng coughed twice and said, "You have also seen it, there are only me and Gonggong Cao here, there are no assassins, you go to search somewhere else." β
"Yes, let's go."
When Liu Wenzheng heard Chu Feng's words, he walked away with his subordinates as if he was amnesty.
sent Liu Wenzheng and his party away.
Chu Feng looked at Gonggong Cao, his eyes rolled around twice, and he deliberately showed a flattering smile on his face: "It turns out that my father-in-law is so good to the little one, and he wants to send the little one to serve the empress, the big one is very kind, and the little one is toothless and unforgettable." β
Cao Huachun didn't know that Chu Feng was deliberately clichΓ©d, and said, "Let you serve the empress..."
Halfway through the words, Cao Huachun looked around and changed his words: "It's inconvenient to talk outside, let's talk about it when I enter the house with the sprinkle family!" β
With that, he turned around and walked inside.
Chu Feng hesitated for a moment and followed.
Inside the house.
Cao Huachun sat at the table, and under the reflection of the candle flame, his pale face looked particularly permeating.
"Xiao Chuzi, the Sprinkle family recommends you to serve the empress, but it is not as simple as letting you concentrate on serving the empress, you have a task, that is, to help the Sprinkle family find a book in the empress's bedroom."
"Books?"
Chu Feng frowned.
recommended myself to serve by the empress's side, just to find a book, then this book is definitely not simple.
Just when Chu Feng was thinking.
Cao Huachun suddenly asked, "Xiao Chuzi, do you know how to read?" β
When asked about his knowledge, Chu Feng's brain turned quickly, and he denied: "If you go back to your father-in-law, the young one is from a poor background, and he has never gone to a private school, and he still doesn't know a few words. β
"Really?"
Cao Huachun slapped the table and said angrily: "You don't deceive the Sprinkle family, you are from Chu State, and your surname is the surname of the Emperor of Chu State, do you dare to say that you don't know words?" Don't be clever in front of the Sprinkle family, otherwise, the Sprinkle family has 10,000 ways for you to survive and not to die! β
"How dare the little one deceive you, father-in-law."
Chu Feng still denied it: "The younger one is from the Chu country, and the ancestors have indeed been brilliant, but that was hundreds of years ago, and when it came to the generation of the young grandfather, the family fell into the middle of the road, and the name was still paid by my father to the two nest heads of the fortune teller in the village." β
Chu Feng told a lie, his face was not red or panting.
Coupled with his actor-level expression, Cao Huachun's doubts were instantly dispelled.
"The Sprinkle family believes you for the time being."
Cao Huachun handed Chu Feng a note and said, "Tomorrow, the Sprinkle family will take you to Fengtian Palace, and when the time comes, you just need to find a book with the same handwriting as the note, and help the Sprinkle family get it back." β
Chu Feng opened the note, and the note read the four big words 'Turning Void Dafa' on it.
In order to completely dispel Cao Huachun's doubts, Chu Feng deliberately showed a blank expression and asked, "Father-in-law, what are the four words on this note called?" β
Cao Huachun said coldly: "Little Chuzi, don't ask what you shouldn't ask." β
"Father-in-law, you misunderstood."
Chu Feng explained: "What is written on the note you tell the small one, it will be half or three times easier to find the small one." β
"That's more with less!"
Cao Huachun corrected Chu Feng's wrong statement, at this moment, he completely believed that Chu Feng was a poor boy who couldn't read big words, hesitated for a moment, and said: "The four words on the note are called the Dafa of Turning Void, you just need to help the Sprinkle family find this book, and after the matter is completed, the Sprinkle family will give you a generous reward, send you out of the palace, and let you return to your hometown with honor!" β
Chu Feng was overjoyed and arched his hand: "Father-in-law Xie." β
Cao Huachun smiled compassionately and said, "Don't worry about thanking me, the ugly words are ahead, if you hold back the bad, be careful of poisoning and die." β
Poisoned to death?
Chu Feng was stunned for a moment, and a trace of puzzlement flashed in his eyes.
Cao Huachun said: "Now roll up the sleeve of your right hand and take a good look." β
According to his instructions, Chu Feng rolled up the sleeve of his right hand, only to see that there was a black line on his right arm, extending from his wrist to his elbow.
Looking at Chu Feng's stunned appearance, Cao Huachun said calmly: "You have been hit by the five poisonous palms of the Sprinkle family, if you don't have the help of the Sprinkler family to detoxify, within seven days, the black line will extend to the shoulder, and when the time comes, you will be in pain, and finally the seven orifices will bleed to death." β
Seven orifices bleed.
Chu Feng realized something in an instant.
The dead eunuchs in the backyard were all bleeding from the seven orifices.
They just didn't help Cao Huachun find the Dafa of Turning Void, and finally died of poison and died in endless pain.
Chu Feng didn't expect it.
pretending to be stupid, he still can't beat the calculations of the old yin and yang man in front of him.
Right now, only by helping him find the Dafa of Turning Void First can he have a chance to save his life.
Chu Feng scolded Cao Huachun's ancestors in his heart, but he said all kinds of compliments with a smile on his face: "Father-in-law, even if you don't poison you, the little one will do his best to do things for you." β
Hearing this, Cao Huachun did not answer, but glanced at Chu Feng with questioning eyes, got up and said: "It's not early, rest early, the second room on the left hand of going out is your room, and tomorrow I will go to Fengtian Palace with the Sprinkle family!" β
"Yes."
Chu Feng obeyed Cao Huachun's instructions, retreated, and went back to his room to rest.
......
This night.
Chu Feng lay on the bed without any sleep.
Within seven days, he wants to help Cao Huachun get the Dafa of Turning Void, judging from the name, it should be a kind of martial arts cheat, and it is also an extremely dangerous thing to go to Fengtian Palace to be a personal eunuch for the empress.
Memories left behind from the original owner.
Chu Feng learned that the Empress Zetian of the Zhou State was also a top peerless master.
Steal from under the noses of the masters.
Isn't that the old birthday star hanged, tired and crooked?
But there is no other way at the moment, don't steal, seven days later, he died of poison, and under the big tree in the backyard, there is another ghost who died unjustly, but if he steals, he is found to be a human head on the ground.
"Heyββ!"
Thinking of this, Chu Feng let out a long sigh.
At this time, Cao Huachun's warning voice came from outside the door: "Xiao Chuzi, it's late at night, go to bed early, don't sigh, otherwise, the Sprinkle family will let you go to the backyard to sleep with those twelve eunuchs!" β
Cao Huachun's voice frightened Chu Feng.
Don't dare to think about it...
