Yun Lingzheng lowered his eyes, put away his white chess pieces, and spoke slowly: "The wedding will begin after dawn. I see that Mr. Xiao is too excited to sleep during this long night. How about you and me? How about playing chess until dawn, when something happens?"
When it comes to the game of chess and the court's scheming, no one has ever been able to win against Yun Lingzheng.
This time, Xiao Ziyi not only defeated Yun Lingzheng on the chessboard, but also seemed to outdo Yun Lingzheng in the court, which made him a little more interesting and confident.
After putting away the black chess piece and exchanging with Yun Lingzheng, Xiao Ziyi made a gesture of invitation: "That one entrusted everything to me, and the rest is just step-by-step. Now that the regent of the Great Zhou Dynasty has died, everything is more complicated than before. It was faster and smoother before. I am playing chess with Mr. Shofu here. The Fifth Young Master went out of the city today to meet Mrs. Gaoming and was not present. After everything is over, no one will suspect me and the Xizhou envoys. Mr. Shofu, it is your turn. .”
The white chess piece has fallen, Yun Lingzheng is holding the black chess piece, and his second move is one piece too late.
Only the crisp "click" of the jade chess piece was heard, and it landed on the chessboard.
A new round of chess game begins——
"Master Jiu!"
It was dark, and Lu He finally arrived.
The Lu family had previously maintained a neutral attitude, but Emperor Wu Zong was still worried because Lu He was wholeheartedly on Master Jiu's side.
Now that Master Jiu is dead, the Lu family is quite restricted.
It was much more difficult for him to enter the palace.
As night fell, Lu He and Han Zhongjing stepped into the spiritual hall together.
Huo Ying looked back, his eyes were red, and his face was no longer alive.
"Just come."
Lu He understood what Huo Ying meant. He said that it was best that he didn't bring Ying Di.
"But I didn't have time to see Master Jiu for the last time." Ying Di... Ying Di didn't have time to see Master Jiu for the last time.
Huo Ying slowly withdrew his eyes and focused on the brazier. Thinking of Ying Di, he couldn't help but smile with relief: "Nothing, I also heard him say that third-rate people value formality, second-rate people value feelings, and first-rate people value substance. "
Whether we can get there or not, it doesn’t really matter.
Things have reached this point, let's take a look and see what can be done, but we can't survive.
There is no need to care about this.
Lu He closed his eyes in pain and led Han Zhongjing forward.
Outside, there were eyes and ears, and the two of them stepped forward without hiding anything.
It's not extremely cold in the ice coffin.
Huo Ying stood up in person and uncovered the black satin covering Jiu Ye's face with his own hands.
Lu He just took one look and couldn't hold back his tears: "Jiuye is dying with his eyes closed. He must have a lot of things to worry about. My master and the others are all he can't let go of. But Huo Ying...my master committed suicide because of his love. If Master Jiu knew, how sad he would be."
He should have told Lu He that it was not the real Miss Six.
But only those who can pretend can tell this kind of thing.
Lu He is a man of temperament. He has been obsessed with medicine these years and has never paid attention to human calculations. He did not tell Lu He.
As for the concubine, she was a person with great ideas, but today was different from the past. The concubine still had old eyes and old tricks. He was also afraid that if he informed the concubine, the concubine would make other plans.
In short, the less people know about it, the safer it is.
Huo Ying said nothing, only looking at Lu He's hand, tremblingly feeling for the pulse on Master Jiu's neck.
Lu He didn't believe that Master Jiu just left like this.
But the arteries in the neck are quiet...
Lu He burst into tears and cried out: "Jiuye!"
He knelt heavily in front of the ice coffin and cried so hard that he couldn't help himself.
Only Han Zhongjing had tears in his eyes.
His current achievements are all due to Master Jiu recognizing his talent, and not denying the theory of evil and evil, using criminals who are so evil and unrepentant that they are not even worthy of being called as tools for his development. For him to study medical skills.
As a result, he learned a lot that he had no chance to learn before. He gave this set of medical skills to Lu He, and they benefited many ordinary people.
"Master Jiu was very kind to the old man and fulfilled his wish."
He lost his son, and it was Ying Di who stayed with him, making up for his longing.
He has all the medical skills and emotions now.
"But I couldn't come to the palace at that time."
Han Zhongjing is now in his early 100s, with tears trembling in his eyes.
Just when Huo Ying was about to cover the black silk, Han Zhongjing's expression suddenly changed.
"Wait a minute!" He came here at that time. He came with difficulty and left in a hurry, so he couldn't take a closer look.
Now, the man lying in the ice coffin, although his eyes are still open and his pupils are dilated, his aura is still as strong as when he was alive.
"Didn't you say that Master Jiu died due to poisonous hair?" Han Zhongjing pointed to the ice coffin, where the black lines on Master Jiu's neck spread like cracks on broken porcelain.
"The poison only reached the lungs and heart vessels, but did not invade the brain. That is, it did not spread to the whole body, and it stopped here."
Han Zhongjing lowered his voice and spoke to Huo Ying carefully.
Lu He, who was only thinking about his sadness at the moment, also discovered this clue.
"Master Jiu didn't die from poison, he was killed by someone else!" When Lu He said this conclusion, Han Zhongjing's mind also changed.
"Yes, the poison hasn't completely gone through the body. At most, someone was tricked when it started to attack!" Han Zhongjing took out the silver needles, three silver needles, one for his hand, one for his heart, and one for his neck.
When they were pulled out one by one, the silver needle inserted into the wrist was completely black.
The silver needle at the heart is slightly black.
At the neck, the silver needle did not change color at all.
"Sure enough!" Lu He's eyes were sharp: "Huo Ying, have you seen that wherever the silver needle changes color, it proves where the poison has gone. The poison has just invaded Jiuye's heart veins, and it has not even been able to extend upward! "
Han Zhongjing quickly put away the silver needle: "Who was with Master Jiu at that time? What did Master Jiu eat and what did he use?"
"It's Princess Jinfu!" Huo Ying clenched her hands tightly. Thinking of the two taps Yun Si had just made on the back of her hand, her heart instantly became complicated.
"Is it her? Why would she do harm if she didn't want to save her?" Lu He's eyes were full of grief: "How could Princess Jinfu... be like this?"
"Everyone in this world will change. There are too many people like Princess Jinfu who swing between the two sides for profit. She didn't become like this, but she is this kind of person from the bottom of her heart. She collaborated with the prince to harm our ninth master. Come on!" Han Zhongjing has never been so angry before.
He now wished he could kill Yun Si with his own hands.
With that said, he turned around.
Huo Ying was here. He grabbed Han Zhongjing in time and ordered people to go outside and watch.
Everything they said and did just now was in the ears of others.
After waiting for a signal from outside, Huo Ying lowered his voice and asked, "Have you told Jin Fu about the way we secretly exchange information?"
Lu He shook his head subconsciously, but after realizing it, he nodded quickly: "When we came to the capital before, when we were on the ship, Princess Jinfu asked us what we would do if we encountered an unexpected situation and couldn't express many things, so I told her. . At that time, I thought we were traveling together, so that if something happened, I could negotiate with her. Moreover, I only told her the most basic things. What, did she do something? "
