Chapter 116
"My lord, Dark Thirteen has failed."

"Failed?" The hand holding the wine glass paused, "So many people can't deal with a woman?"

Subordinate: "..."

"How did you die?"

"Poisoned."

"Poison?" Putting down the wine glass, he said in a rather annoyed tone, "You even forgot to separate medicine from poison."

"Okay, this has nothing to do with us, you go down first!" Shen Lizhen waved his hand to let the person back down, knowing that an assassination failed, and Luo Cheng's life would be as difficult as ever.Fortunately, the assassins he sent out were dead soldiers raised by the orphans he had collected, and no one else could find out the identity of any of them.What's more, he left some clues pointing to Feng Guangshan.If Luo Cheng and Yun Diancheng wanted revenge, they would only find Feng Guangshan.

"My lord..." The subordinate hesitated to speak.

"Why are you hesitating? Say it!" Shen Lizhen filled a glass of wine and picked it up to drink.

"One of the dead guards is missing."

Crack, the wine glass fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

Shen Lizhen glared at the people on the ground gloomily, "All the hidden guards are under your management."

The people on the ground kowtowed non-stop, and in the candlelight, a pool of dark red blood was left on the blue bricks, "This subordinate is negligent of duty, this subordinate deserves to die!"

Shen Lichen narrowed his eyes, waved his hand, and two other men in black suddenly appeared in the room.

"Drag it!"

The room was quiet again, and Shen Lizhen leaned back on the chair wearily. Is the missing guard from Feng Guangshan?Still——Thinking of a possibility, Shen Lizhen couldn't help but straighten up.

"Come on, prepare a car!"

……

With a bang——, the inkstone, pen holder, porcelain vase and books on the table were all swept to the ground, and the fragments of the porcelain vase splashed a foot high, scratching the forehead of the person kneeling on the ground.

"Shen Lizhen, an old bastard, actually framed me! I will skin him sooner or later." Feng Guangshan cursed loudly in anger.

"Did Luo Cheng find those clues? How did you react?" After losing his temper, Feng Guangshan regained his sanity.

"After Luo Cheng killed the assassin, he didn't check the assassin's body, and went directly to the God catching door." The subordinate reported.

"That's good! The imperial concubine still depends on her, we can't be enemies with her." Feng Guangshan was lucky, but he didn't know that Luo Cheng had tampered with the assassin's corpse long ago, and the whereabouts of those who came into contact with the corpse tonight are all in the in her hands.

……

"What is the cause of death?" The master was wearing outer clothes, with the aftertaste of passion remaining on his face.He licked his lips gluttonously, as if reminiscing about the passion just now.

"It should be poisoned." The subordinate said.

"Should?" Her voice raised an octave.

The subordinate replied calmly, "The subordinates have checked the bodies of those people. There are no scars, and the skin has not turned black. It looks like they are asleep, and there are no symptoms of poisoning."

It seems good to use such poison for assassination, the master was calculating in his heart, should he win Luo Cheng over, or avoid her and not provoke her?The master thought for a long time and couldn't come to a conclusion. Remembering that his wife had a relationship with Luo Cheng, he decided to ask her opinion later.

"Master," the servant outside the door reported, "Prime Minister Shen is here to visit!"

The master raised his eyebrows suspiciously, "Didn't Shen Lizhen blame Feng Guangshan for the assassin's matter? Why is Feng Guangshan not in a hurry, but he is in a hurry instead?"

"Forget it, take him to the West Flower Hall." The master ordered.

"Master," another subordinate came in to report, "General Feng is here."

"They came at the same time?! Bring Feng Guangshan to the east study, and they must not see each other!" The master told his subordinates, "Let my wife receive Feng Guangshan for me, and I will go see Shen Lizhen."

On the other side, three figures loomed out of sight of everyone: Luo Cheng, Mo Qingchen, and Zhui Hun.The other three famous catchers Tie Dan, Wu Xin, and Bing Yan also wanted to come and investigate, but they had no choice but to stay at the God Catcher's Gate to wait for news.

On the corpses of those assassins, Luo Cheng had already put a tracking incense on them.The scent of tracking incense is very faint, which cannot be smelled by human sense of smell. Only the bees raised and raised with tracking incense can smell this aroma.Luo Cheng took out three little bees and followed them to three places with Mo Qingchen and Zhuihun respectively.Under the leadership of the bee, Mo Qingchen found Shen's residence, and Zhuihun was brought to Feng's residence by the bee.Luo Cheng's whereabouts were unknown to the two of them, but in the end they all gathered in this luxurious mansion.

"Where is this place?" Luo Cheng asked Zhuihun in a low voice.

"Zhou Mansion."

"??"

Facing Luo Cheng's questioning gaze, Chasing Soul introduced in detail, "The richest man in the world, Zhou Lifei, is 35 years old. His business covers food, clothing, housing, and transportation. He is as rich as a country." Thinking of Luo Cheng's mention of having a relationship with the North and South Escorts Contact, and said, "It is said that he is the boss behind the North and South Escorts."

"It's really rich!" Luo Cheng looked at the brightly lit room below, and said, "If you have money, you want power. This person is really greedy!"

I don't know what kind of role Zhou Lifei will play in Feng Guangshan, Shen Lizhen and the emperor's three-party struggle, but he is not afraid that if he is exposed, the two sides will not be able to please the two sides of this kind of investment?Or, he wants to fish in troubled waters?

Luo Cheng told Zhuihun her thoughts, she and Zhuihun have one thing in common, they never underestimate anyone, let alone their ambitions.

The three men split into two groups, chasing souls to the West Flower Hall to monitor Shen Lizhen and Zhou Lifei, while Luo Cheng and Mo Qingchen eavesdropped on the conversation between Feng Guangshan and Mrs. Zhou.

"Mrs. Zhou", Feng Guangshan's attitude towards Mrs. Zhou is quite respectful, which makes Luo Cheng curious, what is Mrs. Zhou's ability to convince General Feng, one of the two giants of the imperial court, to her?
"Feng Guangshan." The voice was gentle and pleasant, and very familiar.Luo Cheng couldn't help but poke his head and look into the room, hey, it really is an acquaintance, and he is also a fellow.

Luo Cheng silently looked up at the starry sky at 45 degrees, so what, why are all the time-traveling women on the mainland not honest and responsible?Everyone doesn't like farming, so they can join in wherever there is trouble!Has she not learned her lesson yet?In the future, if he is the world's richest man, he will be able to get rid of Zhan Suifeng's pursuit and get involved in the battle between the royal family and the court.Did she think that Zhou Lifei, a merchant, could win the world?
That's right, Mrs. Zhou in the room is an old acquaintance of Luo Cheng - so is Feng Yao!
Listening to the discussion between Feng Guangshan and Feng Yao in the house, Luo Cheng finally understood why there were so many women in the palace, why only Concubine Feng Gui was pregnant, and the other women including the queen were not pregnant.

Fengyao comes from modern times, and she understands that food generates and inhibits each other, so she also has a good understanding of the characteristics of food, and knows which foods can cause infertility in women.Feng Guangshan's people mingled among the buyers, and bought some foods that made it difficult to conceive, so that the women in the harem could only look at the pregnant Concubine Feng Gui with envy and hatred, but they had no choice.

What's more, Fengyao also studied medicine, and she studied Chinese medicine.

"Master Feng, the imperial concubine is already pregnant, why bother whether other people are pregnant or not? How to say, the imperial concubine gave birth to the emperor's first child. She has an advantage in ranking." Feng Yao said softly.

"What if the empress gives birth to a girl? I must guarantee that after Song Qizong's death, the throne will fall on the child born to my daughter! Therefore, except my daughter, no woman, especially Shen Lizhen's daughter, can be allowed to give birth to a child."

"Master Feng, haven't we already started with food to change the physique of the women in the harem, making it difficult for them to conceive?"

"I'm not afraid of [-], just in case. It's difficult to get pregnant, but it doesn't mean I'm definitely infertile. I can't let a single change ruin my plan." Feng Guangshan's eyes flashed fiercely.

"In that case, let's take the sterilization pill!" Feng Yao suggested.

"It's a way, but it's very difficult." Feng Guangshan wondered, "The emperor just ordered that everyone in the palace need to record their medicines, and the decoction process is much stricter, so it's hard to do it."

"It's really difficult." After the Queen Mother was poisoned, Song Qizong raised his defenses, and the method of starting with soup and medicine would not work.

"Mrs. Zhou, this old man knows that you are smarter than a man, so you must be able to think of a way, right?" The flattering tone was more like a threat, Feng Yao secretly took a few deep breaths to suppress the anger in her heart.Hmph, when you run rampant for a while longer, I will trample you under my feet and let you be my step up to the Nine Layers Palace.

Feng Yao lowered her head and thought, the little girl Chun'er she brought out from Tuojiang Town has become her confidant.Apart from Feng Guangshan and Fengyao in the study, only Chun'er stayed to serve.She poured tea for the two of them, then stood aside and watched Feng Yao think about the problem, her eyes were full of admiration, as if she thought that there was no problem in the world that could stump her master.

After thinking for a while, Feng Yao raised her head, her bright eyes showed that she already had an idea.

"Master Feng, do you know about Cordyceps?"

"I know! What's the matter?" Feng Guangshan asked suspiciously.

Fengyao smiled and opened her mouth and said, "Cordyceps is sweet and flat in nature, can nourish deficiency and damage, nourish essence and energy, nourish kidney and strengthen yang, nourish lungs and relieve asthma, relieve cough and reduce phlegm. Combined with northern ginseng, Chuan Fritillaria, donkey-hide gelatin, etc. Cure cough, phlegm and blood; with ginseng, walnut meat, gecko, etc., it can cure shortness of breath; stewed with duck, chicken, pork, etc., it has the effect of tonifying deficiency and helping weakness. Sweating and chills, etc."

"So what?" Feng Guangshan was a little impatient, what he wanted was a possible way to prevent the harem women from getting pregnant, and he didn't want to hear Feng Yao show off her knowledge of pharmacology.

"Hehe," Feng Yao chuckled, "General Feng doesn't know that Cordyceps can't be eaten too much, especially women. Eating less is nourishing, and eating more is poison. Eating too much can make a woman unable to conceive a child. Anyone can Can't find a mistake."

"Really?" Feng Guangshan asked overjoyed.

Feng Yao nodded, "Women are weak and afraid of the cold before and after menstruation, Cordyceps is an excellent tonic."

Feng Guangshan was very happy, and he couldn't stop praising Fengyao's brilliance.Feng Yao responded with a smile, and came up with a few small ways to tell Feng Guangshan, such as asking Feng Guangshan to buy more hawthorn, longan, apricot and other fruits.Hawthorn has the effect of contracting the uterus, which can easily cause miscarriage in the early stages of pregnancy; longan can easily cause premature abortion symptoms such as vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain in pregnant women; apricot is very acidic and hot, and has the effect of slipping tires...

In this way, even if someone in the harem is really pregnant, they will not be able to safely give birth to a child!
