The palace beauty walked to the window, looked at the sunlight in the courtyard, and was silent.

The sun fell on her face, but it couldn't bring much warmth, and there was always a lingering indifference and haggard under her beautiful eyebrows.

The kitchen is quiet, and the picture is very eerie, just like this, it slowly continues in the sun, fermenting.

I don't know how long it took, but the medicine was ready, and the woman took the medicine jar in both hands and dipped it in the ice water prepared in the basin, waiting for the medicine to cool.

Like Zhou Tong, the palace beauty is also very good at spiritual secret methods, and the woman can't see her by the window, it is very likely that she is fascinated by the illusion she creates.

Eventually, the woman looked up at her, proving that it was not unreal, but real.

The palace beauty leaned against the window and waved her hand lightly, signaling that everything was going on as usual.

......

......

It is impossible for the medicinal juice to really be completely cooled before drinking, so it will more or less lose some medicinal power, and the medicine bowl brought to Zhou Tong is still emitting a thick hot mist.

Zhou Tong was a little intoxicated by the hot feeling of the hot mist, which made him feel full of energy, but when he drank all the potions in the bowl, he was a little dissatisfied, because the potions burned his palate and gums—not to blame the woman, but not satisfied with his own state of mind—a little too anxious.

Not being scalded out of the bubbles, still a little uncomfortable, he licked it with his tongue.

There was a slightly sweet sensation on the tip of the tongue, a bit like rust.

He knew it was the smell of blood, so he couldn't help frowning slightly, took a mirror from the table, and looked at it.

He didn't notice anything abnormal, just that his gums were slightly swollen and bleeding.

The smell of blood faded away, leaving only the bitter taste of the potion, and he grabbed two sugar-coated peanuts from his plate, threw them into his mouth, and chewed them carefully.

Since he was very young, he was afraid of drinking medicine, because the medicine was too bitter, so every time he drank medicine, he would prepare some sweet and greasy snacks in advance.

He munched on sugar-coated peanuts while thinking about what he had encountered today.

Xue He has been leading troops in the northern snowfield for many years, and it is natural that he can get this kind of poison, but how did he get poison in the underground prison just now?

Want to poison yourself and avenge Xue Xingchuan, so that the world thinks that this is a cycle of heavenly principles, and retribution is unpleasant?

The problem is that it is not so easy to poison yourself.

A sneer appeared on the corner of Zhou Tong's lips, and his cold eyes were a little more proud.

The sugar-coated peanuts were delicious, the only problem was that there were some sticky teeth, so he took out a refined silver toothpick and continued to think about it while picking his teeth.

It is very likely that Xue He has escaped from Zhou Prison at this time, but it doesn't matter, although the world is big, there is no place for the Xue family.

Zhou Tong's gaze fell on the courtyard next door over the window, thinking that after the matter was done, he had to arrest Xue He back as soon as possible, and then poison him, slowly poisoning him.

He had already figured out which kinds of poisons to use to make Xue He die the slowest and most painful.

A slight clicking sound sounded in his mouth, interrupting his rambling, pleasure-filled thoughts.

One of his teeth was broken, and it lay quietly in the palm of his hand, and the broken stubble was full of blood and stains, and it looked very hideous.

Looking at this broken tooth, Zhou Tong's body, which had just warmed up for a short time, became cold again.

He was silent for a moment, then picked up the mirror and looked at it again.

Just one glance, it's thrilling.

His gums had turned purple-black, and his teeth were so loose that they seemed to fall if a gust of wind blew lightly.

The clearer and more unbearable pain coming from the broken tooth made his body tremble again.

He just wanted to remove the sugar stain between his teeth, but he pried out a tooth.

The tip of the delicate silver toothpick has completely turned black, like charcoal, which is very shocking.

It's all hallucinations, he said to himself.

He is too experienced in the use of poison, he believes that he has absolutely no judgment error, and his detoxification method, even if it cannot completely remove the toxins in the body, can definitely temporarily suppress those toxins, and then he will have a lot of time to slowly solve this problem.

But why is it that the poison in the body has not been suppressed, but has become more terrifying, and has invaded the teeth?

Zhou Tong couldn't figure it out and was silent for a long time.

Until this time, he still did not think that there was no problem with the medicine he used, but there might be problems in the process of decocting the medicine.

He never doubted the woman.

He took out two precious pills, put them in his mouth, and swallowed them directly into his abdomen, temporarily suppressing the poison that was erupting.

He felt a little dizzy and a little dizzy at this time.

If it weren't for the dazzle, how could he have seen the woman walk to the door of the small courtyard.

The woman carried a burden made of floral blue cloth on her arm.

The baggage was small, simple, and couldn't hold much.

Yes, of course yes, he has bought her so many valuable things over the years, where can such a small burden be carried away.

So she can't be ready to leave, she can't be ready to abandon herself, it can't be that she has a problem, it can't be that she poisoned.

Then it is indeed dazzling, this poison is really too powerful, and it will make you hallucinate.

Zhou Tong said this to himself, and then stood up from his chair.

There is a distance of about 10 zhang between the room and the main entrance, and the courtyard in the middle is full of sunlight.

He and the woman were separated by a place of sunlight, and they looked at each other from a distance.

The woman's expression was calm, gentle and peaceful, and she was slightly blessed, as if she had said goodbye to him every time, except that it was she who said goodbye to-day.

It turns out that all this is not a hallucination.

Zhou Tong didn't ask, because he knew that there would be countless truths, but since he hadn't discovered it before, why bother discovering it now.

The cruelest thing in the world is that when you don't want to know the answer, someone wants to tell you the answer.

"She doesn't like you, she never liked you. ”

The palace beauty walked out of the door and said to him, "She's just afraid of you, so she doesn't dare to leave." ”

Why aren't you scared today? Naturally, it's because he's going to die.

Zhou Tong was not surprised by her appearance.

In fact, he couldn't figure it out at all at this time, it wasn't that his own medicine didn't work, but that someone had put another poison in that medicine.

From the moment he figured this out, he knew that someone had come to this small courtyard, and even knew who that person was.

The people who know you best are of course not relatives, otherwise Xue Xingchuan would have died so miserably, and he would have almost been exposed to the wilderness after his death.

The person who knows you best is not necessarily your enemy, as the book says, because you will always be wary of the enemy and will take a lot of precautions in advance.

The person who knows you best is not necessarily your friend, Bai Shou is very beautiful, but you have too little time together, the distance between the two cities is too far, you are always drinking when you meet, reminiscing about the past, looking forward to the future, scolding the former teacher and the current court, it is difficult to have the opportunity to talk about some very detailed things.

So the person who knows you best is often your partner at work.

It's hard to get to know each other for years and day after day, and you'll have a lot of drinks together, talk a lot about details, and because of the hidden or explicit rivalry, you'll remember these things very clearly, so that you can use them at any time in the future. For example, he knows which boxed lunch you like the most, you know which noodles he likes the most, he knows which leader you hate the most, you know which channel he likes the most, he knows how many girlfriends you have talked about over the years, you know how many boats he has stepped on this month, and in the early morning of the second day of Christmas Eve, you may even come out of the same convenient hotel and smile at each other, because the company can get the most suitable negotiated price in this convenient hotel.

It stands to reason that Zhou Tong has no working partner, because the Qing Officials Division is a very special yamen, directly responsible for the Tianhai Holy Queen, and does not need to deal with anyone in the court, Cheng Jun and other Eight Tigers and Ti Qi are his subordinates, but there will always be some special existences in the world, such as this palace beauty.

The Empress of Tianhai relied on Xue Xingchuan, Tianmao, Xu Shiji and other gods to control the Great Zhou army, and she controlled the imperial court and then ruled hundreds of millions of people in the Great Zhou, mainly through two people, one was Zhou Tong, and the other was of course Mo Yu.

They are the right-hand men of the Tianhai Holy Queen in the court, and they have been condemned by many people in private as embarrassment, they have worked together for many years, although they are not in the same heart, but they have a tacit understanding, whether it is in the face of the Tianhai family or the strong will of the military, this tacit understanding has been playing a very positive role.

Because of this tacit understanding, they know each other very well.

Zhou informed the rebellious heart and unwillingness hidden in the deepest part of Mo Yu's heart, and even faintly noticed her thoughts about someone. Mo Yu knew that he had hidden his fear of the Holy Queen Mother and this small courtyard full of sunshine, so she found this place today, and then sent the deadliest blow to him.

......

......

Seeing Mo Yu walk in from outside the door, Zhou Tong quickly calmed down, even faster than he thought. In the past few days after the Tianshuling Incident, he had been asking the Seiji Division to track down or confirm her whereabouts in the south, or because of this, in fact, he had already been mentally prepared to see her in Kyoto.

He said to Mo Yu: "I knew that you would definitely go back to Kyoto, but I didn't expect it to be now. ”

Mo Yu asked, "Why?"

Zhou Tong said: "Since you know very well, if you return to Kyoto, you will definitely die." ”

Mo Yu looked at him and said, "I don't really care about this, as long as you can die in front of me." ”

Zhou Tong didn't know that Chen Changsheng had said something very similar not long ago.

He looked at Mo Yu and asked, "You came back to avenge your mother?"

"I don't have that ability, and you're not my enemy, because you don't have that ability. ”

In Mo Yu's opinion, he is just a dog raised by Niangniang: "I came to punish her for the dog." ”

Zhou Tong was silent for a while, and said, "How are you going to punish this dog?"

Mo Yu said: "Put it in the pot and stew? I think it seems good." ”

Zhou Tong looked at her and said seriously: "You can not be that rabbit." ”

"It's not that rabbits and dogs are cooking, I'm just not as experienced as you in torturing people, so I can only think of boiling you to death. ”

Mo Yu looked at him and asked very seriously, "Do you have any other good suggestions?"
