After meeting with the king of Chu, Lan, the prince of Sanlu, according to the agreement between the king of Chu and Zhaoyang, quietly selected people and began a secret investigation into the assassination of the nineteenth son. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 On the same day, the first-class guard Zhaohu led the three hundred ironclad army, Zhao Hua, Ziyan and others to Yuncheng at the same time.

Before leaving, Ziyan was found by the queen and carefully advised her for an hour before letting her leave. After Ziyan saw Zhao Slip, she hurriedly called him to stop, avoided everyone, and whispered quietly for a long time before getting into the car. Seeing this, Zhaohu didn't ask much.

The Nineteenth Son didn't know that there was an undercurrent surging in the Chu Palace again because of him, and at this time he was anxiously waiting for Mr. Miao to use the Golden Silkworm Gu to detoxify him. Mr. Miao told him that the lice Gu in his body was not trivial. Ordinary insect Gu is put in a special vessel with hundreds of poisonous insects, and after 100 days of tempering, the last one left is Gu, which is one out of a hundred. The method of refining lice Gu is exactly the same as the ordinary Gu refining method, but it is one in a thousand. Mr. Miao was worried that the Golden Silkworm Gu would not be able to prey on this powerful lice Gu by relying on its own strength. Therefore, he wanted to use his internal strength to warm the Golden Silkworm Gu for seven or eight hours, so that its combat effectiveness would temporarily skyrocket, and when Mr. Miao used the method of poison to attack poison, he would ensure that the Golden Silkworm Gu was foolproof in preying on lice Gu.

It wasn't until the next morning that Mr. Miao Fengshan Miao came to Nineteen's bed again. Nineteen saw Mr. Miao's face

The color was slightly pale, so I guessed that he must have spent a lot of energy when he warmed up the Golden Silkworm Gu, but it was seen that he was still in good spirits.

Mr. Miao took out a brocade box from his arms, took out a short knife, and gently cut a small incision on Nineteen's left wrist, and then took out a golden worm the size of a grain of rice from the brocade box, and quickly placed it on the wound where Nineteen was bleeding.

Nineteen only felt a chill on the wound, and then felt nothing else. And Mr. Miao took a deep breath, and a layer of white mist spread out from his palm, slowly seeping into Nineteen's body. This is a unique Qigong of the Miao people, which is specially used to explore people's meridians and heal people's wounds. After the tea time, Mr. Miao collected the internal strength, and used the short blade to separate a small opening on Nineteen's ankle, and transported the internal qi again.

The time for this exercise was surprisingly long, and Mr. Miao's originally calm face now became solemn, his brows furrowed into a Sichuan shape, his pale cheeks flushed, his breathing gradually became short, and fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead.

Xiang Bei and Miao Miao on the side saw this scene and were secretly frightened, but they didn't dare to make a sound, and they didn't even dare to help Mr. Miao wipe the sweat from his forehead. Time passed slowly, and everyone in the room held their breath and waited anxiously. After about an hour, I saw that Mr. Miao finally exhaled, his right hand was closed, and his left hand quickly picked up the brocade box and approached the wound on the nineteenth ankle. Then, a slight sound of "pop" was heard. Mr. Miao immediately closed the opened brocade box, closed his eyes slightly, and breathed on his own. After a while, Mr. Miao opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of turbidity, then took the tissue in Miao Miao's hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and stared at Nineteen on the bed.

Nineteen was already impatient lying on the bed, and when he saw Mr. Miao open his eyes, he couldn't wait to ask:

"Senior, lice Gu can be removed?"

Mr. Miao smiled and nodded, then asked:

"How are you feeling right now?"

Nineteen: "I haven't felt anything special all the time, but now I just feel hungry." ”

Mr. Miao hurriedly shouted to Xiang Bei and Miao Miao, "Why don't you two go and get some food." ”

Not long after, Xiang Bei and Miao Miao brought porridge, cooked beef and a plate of stir-fried vegetables respectively. Seeing this, where can I be polite, and swept away all the food that was served, Xiang Bei saw this, got up and wanted to serve some more food, but was stopped by Mr. Miao.

Mr. Miao said: "The nineteenth prince has not eaten for three days, so it is not advisable to eat too much, the amount of food he ate just now is enough." At this time, there was food in Nineteen's stomach, and he had strength in his body, and his spirit was also swept away. He sat up from the bed, saluted Mr. Miao respectfully, and said gratefully:

"Thank you, sir, for saving your life!"

Mr. Miao stared at Nineteen with a gaze full of complexity, then sighed and said slowly:

"It's really not a life-saving grace, if I don't take action, you may not be in danger. In fact, you defused the poison of the lice Gu by yourself before I made a move, and as for why you were able to dissolve the poison of the lice Gu by yourself, I still don't know yet. However, when I used the Golden Silkworm Gu to remove the lice Gu for you, something happened, and it was extremely dangerous at that time!"

Nineteen Qi said: "I don't feel anything!"

Mr. Miao said, "You don't feel it because I used my internal qi to control the meridians of your whole body. Originally, the process of the Golden Silkworm Gu devouring the lice Gu was quite smooth. However, when I guided the Golden Silkworm Gu out of your body, the Golden Silkworm Gu seemed to be greatly stimulated, and it became agitated, and it actually lost control in an instant. In the end, I used all my internal strength and a lot of effort to guide it out. When the Golden Silkworm Gu came out of your body, it had no essence at all, and its whole body was stiff like a stone. If it's any longer, the Golden Silkworm Gu will remain in your body forever. ”

Nineteen asked, "Assuming that the Golden Silkworm Gu stays in my body, will it have any effect on me?"

Mr. Miao said: "Your blood can dissolve the poison of the lice Gu, and even the poison released by the Golden Silkworm Gu, but it cannot dissolve the poison of the Golden Silkworm Gu itself. The Golden Silkworm Gu body is the coldest and most poisonous thing in the world, once it melts, even the Great Luo Golden Immortal will not be able to save you!"

Nineteen stuck out his tongue and said, "It's so dangerous!"

Mr. Miao continued gloomily: "It's still my carelessness, although I have noticed that your physique is different from ordinary people, I never thought that there is still a mysterious power hidden in your body, which will cause the Golden Silkworm Gu to get out of control. If I had known this, I would not have used the method of devouring the Golden Silkworm Gu, but the method of piercing the acupoint with a golden needle. ”

Xiang Bei asked, "So, is Nineteen's body completely normal now?"

Mr. Miao said: "It's completely fine, but Nineteen's blood has undergone abnormal changes due to the dissolution of the poison of the lice Gu and part of the poison of the Golden Silkworm Gu. ”

"What kind of mutation? is it a good thing or a bad thing?" asked Nineteen quickly.

Mr. Miao looked at Nineteen with a smile and said, "There is a good side and a bad side. The bad side is that you have a lot of poison in your blood, and a snake can kill you if it bites you. The good thing is that from now on, you will not be poisoned, and there are almost no things in the world that can poison you. ”

Nineteen was shocked: "Then didn't I become a poisonous person?"

Miao Miao, who was standing beside Nineteen, heard the word poisonous and couldn't help but take two steps back. And the nineteen-first time was in a bad mood.

Mr. Miao glared at his daughter and scolded: "What are you panicking about? Is the blood poisonous a poisonous person? As long as you don't drink the blood of the Nineteenth Prince, how can you be poisoned? The Nineteenth Prince is no different from eating and living with others, so there is no need to worry at all." I think it's a good thing, and if someone wants to harm the nineteenth prince in the future, won't it be even more difficult!"

Xiang Beida was overjoyed, patted the nineteenth and said: "Little prince, you are almost invincible in the world now!"

When Nineteen heard this, his mood improved slightly, and everyone chatted for a while, but because Nineteen was still very weak and needed to recuperate, they dispersed.

The next night, Zhao Hu, Zhao Hua, Ziyan and others came to Yuncheng. Everyone was relieved to see that the nineteenth prince was safe and sound. When Zhaohu asked the person who was healed, Nineteen and Xiang Bei, according to Mr. Miao's instructions, only deduced that it was a local miracle doctor who treated Nineteen, and because there was another patient, he had already left Yuncheng to go to a distant place. Zhaohu was slightly disappointed, but did not continue to ask. In the end, everyone agreed to wait for a few days of recuperation and complete recovery before leaving for Yingdu.

After dinner, everyone rested. And Zhao Slip quietly came to Xiang Bei's rest room. Xiang Bei seemed to have expected Zhaohua's night visit and was not surprised. After the two sat down, Xiang Bei asked lightly:

"Zhao Gongzi visited Xiang at night, what advice do you have?"

Zhao Hua didn't care about Xiang Bei's indifference, and said to Xiang Bei with a smile:

"Brother Xiang has made a great contribution this time, not only the ninth prince will hold a big celebration banquet for you, but even the king will reward you!"

Xiang Bei said coldly: "This time I went against the will of the Ninth Prince and acted without authorization, and the Ninth Prince didn't blame Xiang, so how can I reward him?"

Zhao said: "It is a great achievement to save the nineteenth prince, of course it must be rewarded." The Ninth Prince is with you!"

Xiang Bei asked, "What does this matter have to do with Xiong Huai?"

Zhao Slip said: "Brother Xiang, why did you say this? Have you forgotten your identity? Have you forgotten the oath of the four of us? We are all members of the Ninth Prince, and of course our honor and disgrace are related to the Ninth Prince!"

Xiang Bei said indignantly: "At the beginning, Xiang tried his best to ask the ninth prince for help, but he was reprimanded. Now he said that he wanted to reward, Xiang was stupid, and he didn't know what he meant? ”

Zhao said: "The younger brother came this time to tell my brother that in this rescue operation, my brother did not act independently, but was ordered by the ninth son. ”

Xiang Bei's heart was shocked, looking at Zhao Slip's handsome and slightly cunning face, but he couldn't get angry in his heart. Since Zhao Slip dared to blatantly snatch credit for the Ninth Prince, he must have something to rely on. And they must think that they will do it obediently, and they will never dare to disobey. What should he do now? According to his nature, not only will he not bow his head, but he will loudly denounce such brazen behavior. However, Xiang Bei has reached the age of a weak crown, not a reckless teenager, he deeply knows the strength of the Zhao clan behind the ninth prince, and he also knows that the Xiang clan and the Zhao clan are in the same spirit, and he really does not dare to disobey the will of the Zhao clan. Obviously, in this matter of stealing the merits, Zhao Hua definitely adheres to Ling Yin Zhaoyang's opinion, and the ninth prince may not have such a careful plan.

Seeing that Xiang Bei was silent in thought, Zhao Hua continued: "We are all people of the Nine Princes, and when we discuss matters together, it is inevitable that there will be disputes and different opinions. Moreover, Brother Xiang did not stop Brother Xiang's action, but the Ninth Prince did not stop him, isn't this the fact that the Ninth Prince has already acquiesced and agreed? Brother Xiang and I are all people in the same boat, sharing weal and woe, and Brother Xiang must proceed from the overall situation in everything he thinks and does. Now that the undercurrents are surging up and down the Chu Palace, Brother Xiang can no longer be left alone. ”

Xiang Bei's heart was like swallowing a fly, nauseous and uncomfortable, but there were words of suffering. After pondering for a long time, Xiang Bei let out a long sigh and asked gloomily:

"According to what Zhao Gongzi said, what will Xiang do?"

A smile appeared on his smooth and immature face, and his eyes became deeper and more unfathomable, and he said faintly:

"All our goals are to support the Ninth Prince to become the crown prince, although this matter seems risky, but once successful, our family will benefit greatly. In order to accomplish this goal, we must do whatever it takes. The Nineteen Sons were originally a contender for the Ninth Prince's throne, and of course they were our opponents, so if anyone could put them to death, we would certainly be happy to see them happen. However, since the nineteenth son is blessed with a great life, and it is precisely Brother Xiang who saved him, of course we want to use this matter to increase the bargaining chips for the ninth prince, and Brother Xiang can also use this matter to return to the ninth prince, which is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone. ”

Zhao Hua paused, saw that Xiang Bei had completely listened, and continued:

"According to the opinion of the queen and my grandfather, from now on, we will marry the nineteenth son, so that he will become the help of the ninth prince, and this burden will probably fall on the shoulders of Brother Xiang. Brother Xiang is already the life-saving benefactor of the Nineteenth Prince, and he must be able to complete this task without much effort. ”

Xiang Bei has completely calmed down now, and sure enough, it is Zhaoyang's attention, and the queen is actually involved. Xiang Bei considered it again and again, and he couldn't refuse Zhao's request at all. Moreover, if the Nineteenth Prince could really be in the same place with the Ninth Prince, wouldn't it be what he would be happy to see? However, looking at Zhao Slip's young but slightly gloomy face, Xiang Bei had a feeling that he was enveloped by an invisible net, and he was already deeply trapped in it, unable to extricate himself.
