In the small yard, Wujiu was about to close the lid of the clay pot when he saw the white worm in the pot suddenly twisting violently.
Wu Gu said: "No, someone is stirring up the Gu insect."
Gu Zhou stopped and leaned over to take a look, and sure enough he saw the Gu insect twisting crazily in one direction, but the jar restricted its movement, and it could only spin in circles inside the jar.
"Do they want to attack the emperor today?" Gu Zhouting was confused.
Now is definitely not the best time to start, as it can easily arouse suspicion. Will they still be able to leave by then?
Just listen to the Taoist priest Wu Gu say: "The insect is not moving again."
The insect became quiet, as if asleep.
"Isn't he dead?"
"No, it's still alive. It's in a dormant state now. Maybe the poison maker just wants to try the effect."
Gu Zhouting was convinced that this would make sense, so he would remind the emperor later that he had angina pectoris again at this point today.
In Fengzao Palace, Lingxi froze in mid-sentence.
Seeing her serious expression, Grandma Song's heart began to lift.
"What's wrong? Princess."
Lingxi looked ugly: "She just rang the bell."
No wonder she felt strange before, but now she can identify where the problem lies.
It was Concubine Sun who shook the bell.
"My slave said she had ulterior motives. She has obviously been told to wait half a month after we leave before activating the Gu insect. What's the point of her ringing the bell now?" Granny Song was angry.
Lingxi disagreed: "Maybe she was just curious, maybe she accidentally touched it, and the ringtone was very short."
"However, I will still find a chance to ask her someday and give her a warning."
Concubine Sun will definitely attend the Cuju competition the day after tomorrow.
In the East Palace, Qin Siyue handed a secret letter to Yu Qing.
"Send this letter to the inn where the Dayuan delegation is staying tonight and just throw it in so no one finds it."
Yu Qing took the secret letter, hesitated and asked, "What is written in it?"
Qin Siyue said sullenly: "Just do it if I ask you to deliver the letter. When will it be your turn to comment on my affairs?"
Yu Qing gritted his teeth and bowed his hands: "I forgive you for daring to offend me. If the content here is harmful to Da Qi's interests, I advise the Crown Princess to think twice."
Qin Siyue's face turned green and white, and his voice was cold: "Yu Qing, if you don't want to follow me anymore, you should go back to my father right now."
Yu Qing had no choice but to compromise: "Subordinate, go deliver the letter now."
Watching Yu Qing leave, Qin Siyue curled up into a sneer. She knew that Yu Qing would not resist her, and she knew exactly what Yu Qing was thinking about her.
Yu Qing returned to his residence and opened the secret message. The more he looked at it, the more solemn his face became. It actually contained the tactics of the Daqi Women's Cuju Team. He didn't know where the princess got it.
Yu Qing struggled for a long time, lit a candle, and burned the secret letter.
He couldn't let the Crown Princess make another mistake again and again.
If someone discovers this matter, she, the Crown Princess, will be in trouble, and even the entire Qin family will be accused of betraying the country and seeking glory.
Of course, he knew very well that the Crown Princess just did not want Wang Qirou to be in the limelight.
What she couldn't get herself, no one else could get it, especially Wang Qirou.
Because Wang Qirou is a close friend of the Shangguan family.
Jiang Wanning took care of the emperor's wound and poured some warm water. Eunuch Zhu took the cotton handkerchief in her hand and said, "Let's come to the Zajia family!"
Jiang Wan Ning followed the good example and retreated.
Gu Zhou stopped to see her coming: "Is the Emperor okay?"
Jiang Wan Ning smiled: "It's okay, I'm just a little tired, just lie down for a while and I'll be fine."
Wugou said: "The poison crawled out along the blood vessels, and the process was a bit uncomfortable."
"It's amazing. The blood of Baicaoshuang and Ten Thousand Gu Insects can draw out the Heart-Eating Gu." Gu Zhouting sighed.
"This heart-eating Gu is a cold thing. Baicao Shuang is the coldest in nature and has a strong temptation for the heart-eating Gu. The blood of the King of Ten Thousand Gus has a strong suppressive power against all poisonous insects. When the heart Gu senses these two things, it is naturally drawn out." Taoist Priest Wu Gu explained.
Of course, he concealed the blood of two generations. Even though Gu Zhouting already knew that Jiang Wanning was Shangguan Nanzhi, it was better not to let a third person know that the blood of two generations could cure poison.
The emperor rested for a while, regained his energy, and then returned to Princess Changping's Mansion.
He couldn't be out for long.
Gu Zhouting told the emperor that someone had stirred up the Gu insect just now, maybe it was just a test. When the time came, he asked Princess Changping to cooperate, and then told Ji Yunchen to go to Jiang's house to invite Jiang Wanning due to sudden heartache.
The emperor returned to Princess Changping's mansion through the back door without anyone noticing.
Ji Yunchen and Xiao Yan had already started talking about the Cuju competition and the establishment of the Huben camp. Suddenly, Eunuch Zhu ran out, looking panicked.
"Your Highness, the little prince, the emperor just suffered from heartache."
The expressions of the two people changed drastically.
Ji Yunchen said: "I'll go ask the imperial doctor."
Xiao Yan hurriedly said: "Go and invite Mr. Jiang."
Xiao Yan thought it was the sequelae of removing the poison. Since Eunuch Zhu was back, the poison must have been removed, so Jiang Wanning had to be invited to do this.
Ji Yunchen said: "But Mrs. Jiang left Beijing for medical treatment."
Xiao Yan said: "She's back, didn't you know?"
Ji Yunchen: Uh...
He didn't know, he didn't know Jiang Wanning left, and he didn't know when he came back.
Ji Yunchen had no choice but to go to Jiang's house and knock on the door. Xiao Pan opened the door.
"Xiao Pan, is your wife back?"
"I'm back. Your Majesty, please come in."
Ji Yunchen said: "I won't go in. You go and tell your wife that someone in my family is sick. She is seriously ill. Please ask her for help."
Xiao Pan hurriedly went to find his wife, and Jiang Wanning came out with the medicine box in a moment.
Pretending to be ignorant: "Your Highness, who is sick?"
Ji Yunchen anxiously urged her to get on the carriage. After getting on the carriage, he said, "It's the Emperor who has a sudden heartache."
"Huh? Are you sick again?"
"Yes, Jiuli, hurry up." Ji Yunchen urged Jiuli to speed up.
Fengzao Palace quickly received news that the emperor fell ill at Princess Changping's Mansion, suffering from heartache.
The queen hurriedly ordered people to prepare the phoenix chariot and rushed to Princess Changping's mansion.
After hearing this, Nanny Song hurriedly went to tell Lingxi.
"Princess, the emperor fell ill at Princess Changping's residence. He said he was heartbroken."
Lingxi breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. It was indeed caused by ringing the bell to induce poison.
"Did you call for a royal doctor?"
"Please, I seem to have invited Vice-President Jiang, the female imperial doctor."
Lingxi relaxed a little more: "Then there's nothing to worry about."
This Dr. Jiang has no real ability and is just a person who wants to gain reputation. Last time the emperor fell ill, she went to see him and didn't see any problems. She just followed the doctor Yang's words and made a diagnosis. She will definitely not be able to find anything this time.
It has to be said that Qin Siyue's unremitting efforts to belittle Jiang Wanning did Jiang Wanning a great favor and made Lingxi relax his vigilance and take it lightly.
