Having the ability to distinguish between truth and lies can save you a lot of trouble. One of the nurses revealed that there were obviously many beauties in the prince's residence, and there were all kinds of beauties, but the prince also kept an aunt outside.
And I go there every three days, which is more diligent than going to the courtyard of my beloved wife and concubine.
I have seen all the prince's wives and concubines, and indeed there is no shortage of any type.
The key is that Concubine Li, the saint of the overseas fairy clan, can find a way to get her son. What kind of woman needs to be secretly raised outside the house?
I thought this matter was very suspicious, so I asked the nurse to lead me to the prince's outer chamber.
The nurse took me to a small, inconspicuous courtyard in a remote part of the city.
I asked the nurse to knock on the door. He came here with the prince. People in the courtyard should know him.
The person who opened the door was a middle-aged woman, dressed as a servant and with sharp eyes.
The guardian directly said that something had happened to the prince, and specially ordered him to deliver money and a token to leave the city to the 'master' inside, and told her to leave quickly and seek shelter elsewhere.
The middle-aged woman didn't believe what he said, but she pretended to believe him and invited us in.
She asked who I was, and the nurse said that I was a master invited by the prince to escort his master.
The middle-aged woman still didn't believe it, but she didn't question him.
She has decided to kill both of us, no need to waste any words.
There was an ambush in the house. I wrapped the body of Gu Yuan with air thread. It would be more dangerous for him to walk in front.
Perhaps they were afraid that I would run away, so they waited for both of us to step into the house before attacking.
Two big knives struck at the nurse's head and chest. The middle-aged woman blocked the door with her body and fired several hidden weapons at me.
Gouyin went out without a weapon and instinctively used his arm to block the knife.
No blood splattered, and his arm wasn't severed.
Where they couldn't see it, air threads had wrapped around the entire house.
Now it's not them preventing us from escaping, it's me fearing they will escape.
The hidden weapons hit me and fell one after another, but none of them hit me.
I didn't even move, I stood still and was beaten.
The middle-aged woman instantly understood that they were no match for me, and she quickly winked at the knife-wielding men and told them to retreat quickly.
The retreat was not really a retreat, it was just an attempt to distract us.
It's a pity that they can't get out. Doors, windows, and all open exits are blocked by invisible barriers. They can see the door bolt, but they can't touch it.
They wanted to break through the roof again, and their qinggong was pretty good, but the result was the same.
The broadsword struck the invisible barrier like a thick shield.
No matter what kind of shield it is, dents or scars cannot be repaired immediately.
The air shield is different. You are not afraid of cuts, they will heal immediately and you will be back as before.
They had obviously never encountered such a strange situation before, and they came to attack me again.
I broke the arm of the knife wielder and slapped the middle-aged woman on the back. She spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground unconscious.
There was another person in the room, but she didn't move. The nurse was hiding under the table. When she saw that the middle-aged woman and the knife-wielding man were injured by me, she quickly climbed out and pointed to the inner room.
"Look at them." I said and walked into the inner room. There was a person lying on the bed. The movement outside did not wake her up.
Of course she couldn't wake up because she was in a vegetative state.
There was a big bulge on her chest, which was covered under the quilt, as if there was a washbasin on her chest.
I knew it was a living thing, a living thing sucking her heart out.
I used my powers to examine the lying woman and the blood-sucking creature on her body.
The woman is brain-dead, and the blood-sucking creature has a long needle-like straw-like organ that pierces directly into the woman's heart.
It eats and excretes, and the little black balls it pulls out roll into a leather bag.
It's like the bag behind the horse's buttocks in the carriage that is used to catch horse manure.
This little black ball is extremely fragrant and is only the size of a soybean.
And this living creature looks like a snail, with a hard shell on its body.
I took the woman away with the blood-sucking creature and its dung balls.
The middle-aged woman and the two knife-wielders were also taken into the palace as witnesses by me.
The fact that the prince raised monsters and murdered Emperor Sheng Yu has been firmly proven.
Because the scent of the dung balls was exactly the same as the elixir that Emperor Sheng Yu took every day.
The original person once read a strange book, which said that all things in the world are mutually reinforcing and interfering with each other, and there must be an antidote near the poison.
I don’t know if the author of that book has read too much martial arts.
Anyway, Emperor Sheng Yu is like a dead horse at the moment, so I will treat him as a living horse for now.
Luo Xiuran has no objection to my treatment plan.
It's just that he didn't discuss the detoxification with the ministers.
The outside world will not know whether it is successful or not, and they all know the situation of Emperor Sheng Yu. After being poisoned like that, the possibility of surviving is extremely slim.
Luo Xiuran settled all the matters in the court, and when his identity as an illegitimate son was revealed, he actually helped him.
Although the identity of an illegitimate son is embarrassing, he is a prince after all. While embarrassing, he also has an extra layer of dignity.
There are supporters of the prince's lineage among the ministers, so if you want to scold him, you have to think before you speak.
Emperor Sheng Yu originally had many children, but since Concubine Li took charge of the harem, the number of heirs gradually withered, and the surviving children were also sick, stupid, and crippled.
Anyone who is smart will not survive to adulthood.
It is useless to hide one's clumsiness, as one cannot escape the fate of being killed.
Concubine Li was very evil. A minister once proposed to Emperor Sheng Yu that they wanted to investigate Concubine Li seriously because they suspected that she was using witchcraft.
Emperor Shengyu, who was controlled by the poison, naturally did not approve it and sent the minister and his family to a barbaric land.
It's obviously meant to belittle, but actually it's meant to protect.
When Luo Xiuran was settling accounts with Concubine Li, he sent someone to take the minister back to the capital.
The origin of Concubine Li is indeed suspicious, and this matter deserves further investigation.
I have never seen a creature that sucks blood and makes feces, and there is no record of it in any strange book.
Concubine Li was born into a noble family and loved singing and dancing. Her resume before entering the palace was blank.
Luo Xiuran checked Concubine Li's natal family, which was a clean and well-known noble family. Her parents and brothers were normal people. The servants in the family also said that Concubine Li was likeable since she was a child, was kind to others, and did not like to compete.
It seems that her temperament has changed drastically since she entered the palace. The reason she gave was that the palace was dangerous and others forced her to be ruthless.
The biological daughter whom she had loved since she was a child was fighting alone in the harem, walking on thin ice all day long, and would die if she did not find a way to protect herself. With this rhetoric, even if her parents still had doubts, they were blinded by their heartache.
Her brothers wanted her to promote them and help her in the previous dynasty, but she refused on the grounds that Emperor Sheng Yu was most taboo about this, and she had to be cautious and not leave any clues for other concubines to take advantage of.
At first, she was indeed low-key in the harem, able to endure both big and small things, leaving an impression of being weak and easily bullied.
Emperor Sheng Yu showed special pity to her, as if she relied on this love and protection to survive to this day.
In fact, she didn't need it at all, but others didn't know that.
Her family members thought that she had endured for ten years in the palace and finally came out, before her temperament changed drastically. She had endured to the extreme and needed to vent.
The next step is to plan for his son and eliminate all competitors.
In the eyes of her family, although what she did was wrong, it was a helpless act.
No one suspected that the Concubine Li they knew had been replaced.
After Concubine Li entered the palace, she rarely saw her family.
Needless to say, my father and brothers, even my mother who can enter the palace, rarely see each other.
In fact, given her favored status, it would not be difficult for her mother to be called into the palace. However, she was not the real Concubine Li, so naturally she did not want to meet people who were familiar with her real master.
She lurked in the palace as a palace maid, and when she had the opportunity, she killed Concubine Li who had just entered the palace and had not yet slept with her, exchanged clothes with her, and threw Concubine Zhenli into an abandoned well in the palace.
She used the art of disguise to stay in the palace instead of Concubine Li.
As long as the body rots, it doesn't matter if someone finds it. The body is wearing the clothes of a palace maid. It happened that another palace maid disappeared during that time.
The people in charge will not make a big deal out of the matter. They will take the body out and dump it in a mass grave. It will not take more than a day for it to end up in the stomachs of bobcats and wild dogs.
The prince was in his thirties this year, and the real Concubine Li had been dead for more than thirty years. Her father had passed away. Her mother couldn't bear the shock when she learned the truth. She fainted on the spot and passed away on the fifth day after receiving the news. .
Concubine Zhenli's brother was furious and hoped that Luo Xiuran would severely punish the murderer and chop the person who had faked his identity into pieces.
The fake concubine Li only confessed this and died after speaking.
There is really a strange poison in her body, she will die if she wants to, and there is no way to stop it.
Luo Xiuran didn't expect that Concubine Li would explain so happily. He thought that the two sides would be at odds for a while, and it wouldn't be too late for me to rush to help after I finished curing Emperor Sheng Yu.
Unfortunately, it was too late. The fake concubine Li also took away the prince, and the mother-child Gu was also real.
The little prince was not affected. He didn't even know the existence of vampire creatures.
There was a reason why the fake concubine Li didn't take him away. He didn't come into contact with many core secrets.
But just one crime of treason was enough for him to die a hundred times.
Even if Luo Xiuran lets him go, the ministers, princes and concubines who were harmed by the fake concubine Li will not let him go.
The little prince did not dare to eat or drink in prison, let alone sleep.
The killer went there several times and poisoned many people, but they were all stopped by the jailers.
But no one expected that the person who succeeded in the end was the prison robber.
Luo Xiuran was happier than anyone else that the little prince was kidnapped, and asked me to follow him immediately.
I have just finished treating Emperor Sheng Yu. The toxin on his body has been detoxified. The antidote is the blood of a human being who has been drunk by a blood-sucking creature but has not yet fully absorbed it.
I don't know how it works. I just tried it one by one and figured it out.
During the treatment, Emperor Sheng Yu was critically ill several times. Although his life was saved in the end, he still could not get up from the bed or move from the neck down.
When it will be possible to move, only God knows.
I don't know. At his age, I don't know how many days he can survive after being rescued.
With Emperor Sheng Yu acting like this, the officials knew that he was no longer qualified for that position.
Luo Xiuran remained silent. Now he was the most complete among the princes. He could think of the ministers with his feet as to who would take over.
The status of an illegitimate child is disgraceful, but they cannot accept a fool or a disabled person sitting on the throne.
After Emperor Sheng Yu came to his senses, he passed the throne to Luo Xiuran, who became the Supreme Emperor.
No one mentioned Luo Xiuran's life experience. When he ascended the throne, I was tracking the person who kidnapped the little prince and didn't join in the fun.
