Chapter 273: Xingshi asks for sin
Gu Zhou was so secretive: "Maybe it's fate." ”
Ji Yunchen, Ji Yunchen, can't you guess the reason until now?
Gu Zhouzhu really wanted to tell him the truth.
This fool.
The next day, Jiang Wanning entered the palace early, and she had to do a full set of plays, the emperor fell ill yesterday, and she was diagnosed and treated, so she must care about it today, please take a pulse or something.
Two eunuchs approached with a man covered in a white cloth.
Jiang Wanning asked, "How did this person die?" ”
The eunuch replied: "He died by throwing himself into a well." ”
Jiang Wanning lifted the white cloth and glanced at it, and covered it again without moving.
She recognized this person, it was the palace lady of Hanyuan Hall called Qiuxia, who had been serving Sun Guifei for several years, and when she was still Shangguan Nanyu, she went to Hanyuan Hall to see her.
And Qiuxia didn't drown.
People who drown will have blue-purple spots on their faces, while Qiuxia's face is black, and she died of poisoning.
Jiang Wanning went to ask the emperor for a pulse, and was about to go to the Second Highness, but the Second Highness came to her first.
"Wan Ning, have you ever asked the Innocent Dao Chief, will he return to Wujun Mountain or can he stay in the capital for a while?"
Jiang Wanning said: "The Taoist said that he would stay for a while, August 18 is his apprentice's birthday, and he wants to go back after his apprentice's birthday in the capital." ”
In fact, the master stayed to treat her poison.
Xiao Yan then remembered that Shangguan Nanyu was two days different from his birthday.
"That's very good, can you think of a way to let the Innocent Dao Elder stay a little longer? He finally made a trip down the mountain. ”
"I'll try my best!"
Jiang Wanning also wanted the master to stay, the master was old, and it was too lonely to stay alone in Wujun Mountain.
"By the way, Your Highness, have you heard that a palace lady died in Hanyuan Palace?"
"I heard that this Gong'e was caught red-handed because her hands and feet were not clean, and Sun Guifei scolded her a few words, and wanted to send her to the Huanyi Bureau, so she jumped into the well and committed suicide.
There is a death in the palace, normal can no longer be normal, no one will be held accountable at all, let alone the people in Sun Guifei's palace.
Jiang Wanning said: "But she didn't die of drowning!" ”
Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows: "You saw it?" ”
"Well, I happened to run into it when I entered the palace, so I took a look, and this palace e's face turned dark, obviously poisoned and died."
Xiao Yan thought of something: "What do you think of yesterday's father's illness ......?"
Jiang Wanning said: "It's not certain yet, Lingxi and the others will return to the post house tomorrow, and they will leave Beijing the day after tomorrow." I heard the Innocent Dao Leader say that it is impossible for the Gu worms to be too far apart, so the person who manipulates the Gu Worm should be in the palace. ”
In the past few days, she has followed her master and mastered no less than Gu art-related knowledge.
If Lingxi wanted to leave, he must have handed over the tools used to manipulate Gu worms, usually drums or bells, to a person who was convenient and trustworthy.
And in the palace, the only one who is implicated in Dashu is Sun Guifei.
As Gu Zhouzhu said, of course, after General Sun died in battle, Sun Guifei disappeared and disappeared for three years.
She suspected that Qiu Xia had seen something she shouldn't have seen, or touched something she shouldn't have touched, causing murder.
Xiao Yan's face was solemn: "Actually, I came to you today, and I have one more important matter, go, find a convenient place to talk." ”
The two of them came to the library of the Imperial Hospital.
Jiang Wanning sent the janitor away, and there were only two of them in the entire library.
Xiao Yan said: "Yesterday, Ji Yunchen won the game, and my father thought of Shangguan Erlang and Shangguan's family, and sighed that he received the last letter from the Marquis of Zhenbei, which was the report of the Marquis of Zhenbei after he arrived in Gubei, and I felt that something was wrong at that time, I had been thinking about this problem last night, and then I finally remembered it." ”
"I remember that it should be a few days before Dayuan attacked Gubei, my father said that I was idle all day, let me learn to deal with government affairs, so, every day after dinner, I went to the imperial study, to help my father deal with the folds, I saw a letter from the Marquis of Zhenbei in a pile of folds, at that time, I felt that the letter of the Marquis of Zhenbei was the most important, so I pulled out the letter and put it on top."
"Then my father came back to deal with government affairs after dinner in Hanyuan Palace, and Sun Guifei came over together, and I saw that Sun Guifei was there, so I retired. If my father had seen that letter, how could he have said that the letter was the last? The point is that within a few days my face was burned. ”
Jiang Wanning frowned deeply: "Are you sure you have seen that letter?" ”
"Of course, there is Zhenbeihou's signature on it, and I also recognize Zhenbeihou's words, but I never thought there was a problem with this letter."
As if a ray of light had dispelled the fog, Jiang Wanning also remembered that after arriving in Gubei, one day, her father received a letter, and her father was restless and restless for three days, and she also asked her father if something had happened.
Her father didn't tell her, but his expression was solemn, and later, her father did write a letter and ordered someone to send it to the capital.
Who sent the letter my father received?
By the way, the letter was given to his father by the second elder brother.
It seems that I have to find an opportunity to ask the second brother.
"Wanning, you say, could my accident have something to do with that letter?" The more Xiao Yan thought about it, the more he felt that it was very likely.
Jiang Wanning said: "Your Highness, this clue you provided is very important, I will immediately go to Master Gu to analyze and analyze." ”
Xiao Yan said: "Okay, let me know the result as soon as you have it." ”
If it was really Sun Guifei who harmed him, he would not give up, regardless of whether you were the favorite woman of your father.
Jiang Wanning immediately went out of the palace to find Gu Zhou.
Gu Zhou stopped at this time and was dealing with a small matter.
Qi Yu brought a woman over, and he recognized this woman, Song Yun, the fifth mother of the Song family.
"Lord Gu, she said that it was your subordinate who put the fine work in my hands, and she also knows the code words of our Beidou Division, Lord Gu, you make me panic like this, when did our Beidou Division's code words even know about your subordinates?" Qi Yuxing asked the guilt, this is the secret of the Beidou Division, but outsiders know about it, can he not panic?
Gu Zhouzhu heard what happened, and knew that the so-called subordinate was Jiang Wanning, a young man and an old Taoist, not Jiang Wanning and the Innocent Dao Chief, who else could it be?
Therefore, it was not unusual for Jiang Wanning to know Beidou Division's code words.
Because Qi Yu was a talent discovered by Shangguan Nanyu and gave him a chance. The original intention was to cultivate talents for Xiao Wang.
"Lord Qi, what is your code word? You've talked to anyone but your men. ”
Qi Yu said firmly: "I haven't told anyone. ”
"Are you sure? Think about it, where did this code come about? ”
Qi Yu thought about it, and suddenly thought of something, this code word was originally the words of Shangguan Niangzi joking with him, saying that when you take charge of the Beidou Division in the future, you can use this sentence as a code word.
And he finally took charge of the Beidou Division, but Shangguan Niangzi is no longer alive. All he could do was turn the jokes of the year into reality.
"If you ask, there really is one."
"Who?"
"Shangguan Nanyu."
Gu Zhou stopped and pretended to be surprised: "Then it's no wonder, my subordinate used to work with Shangguan Niangzi, and after Shangguan Niangzi was gone, he followed me." As for your secret words, I swear, even I don't know anything but him. ”
