But Yuguo could never have imagined that Lin Zhuwei would actually use force and push her to the side. Yuguo lost her balance and fell down.

Lin Zhuwei stepped forward and opened the secret compartment. She saw a small dark box inside. She picked it up and opened it.

His eyes suddenly sank and his brows twisted fiercely: it was actually half a crescent-shaped jade pendant!

Looking closely, it was found that the material was the same as the half piece that Dao Xin had given her, and when put together, it formed a whole circle!

Lin Zhuwei clenched his fists, his heart filled with hatred: He Zhilan! I didn't expect that my master's death was really related to you!

She gritted her teeth, and her complexion quickly returned to normal. She took out the powder and carefully cleaned the jade pendant, put it back into the box, and handed it to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, reminding with a smile:

"The Concubine Jia hid this jade pendant in a secret compartment. It must be very important. My Lord, please take good care of it. I have returned it to its original place. If it is lost one day, it will not be my fault."

The junior official from the Ministry of Internal Affairs smiled and said, "Lord Lin really loves to joke."

Lin Zhuwei curled the corners of his lips and said, "Okay, Changning Palace has been cleaned up almost completely, and you guys will continue to clean up the rest. This imperial physician will go to other palaces to take a look first."

After saying that, she turned around and left, but the sinister look in her eyes became more and more intense.

At night, Lin Zhuwei played with the jade pendant in her hand, and the scene of Jia Shinuo's tragic death recurred in her mind again and again, and the hatred in her heart grew stronger.

"Amu, come in." she called.

Amu quickly pushed the door open and walked in: "Young Madam."

"How is Eunuch Yuan?"

"He fled to Lucheng and changed his name and surname to stay there." Amu asked, "Madam, do you need me to bring him back?"

Lin Zhuwei shook her head: "The plague in the palace has been brought under control. I will ask for leave from the Queen Mother in two days and go to Lucheng in person."

"Young Madam, you have to be careful."

Lin Zhuwei nodded calmly: "Take good care of Daoxin and make sure he is safe."

Amu patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, Madam, I guarantee it with my life!"

Lin Zhuwei smiled helplessly: "You also have to pay attention to safety. No one of you two can get into trouble, understand?"

Amu was deeply moved after hearing her words: It turned out that the young lady had always been thinking about him!

"Yes!" Amu nodded happily.

Lucheng is a very remote mountain village with winding mountain roads and layer upon layer of jungle.

The small villages in the mountains are all self-sufficient, and hiding here, it is indeed not easy to be discovered.

About two months passed and no one came looking for him. Eunuch Yuan gradually put his mind at ease. He thought it through and decided that once the storm had passed, he would go to the neighboring country next to Lucheng.

As long as he spends some money to buy a new identity, he can become a citizen of Nanyue and have nothing to do with Chengyan. Only then can he truly escape.

Unfortunately, he didn't expect that they were so well-connected that it only took them two months to find his residence in the mountains.

"Are you Lord Mo?" Eunuch Yuan looked at the masked man in black warily.

The man in black didn't say anything, he just drew his sword and stabbed him directly -

"Lord Mo!" Eunuch Yuan was so frightened that he hurriedly hid behind a tree.

"Master Mo! Please let me go! I will never tell anyone about what happened to the Queen!"

The sharp sword cut off a branch in one stroke. The man in black snorted coldly and put the sword back.

He just snorted coldly, his voice was vicissitudes and hoarse: "What did you say to Lin Zhuwei?"

Eunuch Yuan’s face turned pale!

Even if he was not sure whether it was Mo Yu just now, he could be sure as soon as he finished speaking!

Mo Yu had been poisoned and his throat was injured, so his voice was very special.

Eunuch Yuan shook his head in panic: "I haven't told her a word! Lord Mo, you have to believe me!"

"Really?" The man in black sneered twice, "Eunuch Yuan is really loyal to the queen. The queen also said that if that's the case, he should be rewarded..."

Eunuch Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "I have done something wrong. I am unworthy of the reward. I only ask Lord Mo to let me live!"

"Eunuch Yuan, do you dare not accept the reward from the Queen?" The man in black's voice became colder and colder.

Eunuch Yuan was shaking, and asked tremblingly, "May I ask what reward the queen wants to give me?"

"I'll give you an intact corpse as a reward." The man in black laughed coldly and said no more nonsense, "Eunuch Yuan, let's go!"

Eunuch Yuan was terrified and ran away.

Who would have thought that in order to kill him, she actually sent Mo Yu over!

Everyone knows that Mo Yu is cruel and ruthless, and he never shows mercy when killing people or removing their bones.

What do you mean by leaving the body intact? I'm afraid he will be chopped up and fed to the dogs!

Eunuch Yuan ran forward desperately, and he felt the footsteps behind him getting closer and closer, and the sword energy was slashing towards his back.

He subconsciously turned around and raised his knife to block, but how could he be a match for the man in black?

With a clang, the knife in his hand fell to the ground. Before he could react, the ruthless sword attacked again.

"Ah..."

Eunuch Yuan screamed in agony as his five fingers were cut off one after another. He endured the severe pain and suddenly threw a ball onto the ground.

A black fog suddenly covered the man in black's eyes, blocking his vision.

When the black fog dissipated, Eunuch Yuan had disappeared.

He leaped up to the top of the tree, looked around, but did not find Eunuch Yuan.

The jungle here is dense, and once you hide, it does take some time to find it.

The man in black narrowed his eyes and used his inner strength to transmit his voice, his tone was cold: "Eunuch Yuan, if you know what's best for you, you can end it yourself."

Just as he finished speaking, a figure jumped out from the bushes in the east and ran forward desperately, with a tiger chasing after him.

The man in black sneered as he watched the man and the tiger fleeing in the woods, causing the birds in the mountains to fly away in fright. Eunuch Yuan was almost in despair. He had finally found a good place to hide, but the bloody smell of the severed finger attracted the wild beasts in the mountains. It was like God was going to destroy him.

Just as the tiger's sharp claws were about to grab Eunuch Yuan's back, a poisoned silver needle suddenly shot out and hit the tiger's vital point.

The poison is so strong and potent that just a tiny amount is enough to kill three or four tigers.

However, Eunuch Yuan was so busy rushing forward that he did not notice that the tiger had already fallen behind him and died.

He didn't stop until he reached the edge of the cliff. He looked back, but the tiger was nowhere to be seen.

He was just breathing a sigh of relief when he suddenly felt a sharp sword pierce his heart...

Eunuch Yuan’s face was pale and his eyes were bloodshot. He roared in despair, stomped his feet hard, and jumped off the cliff.

The sword was retracted and the man in black sheathed his sword in an instant. His eyes darkened as he walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down. He then curled his lips into a sneer, then took off his mask, revealing a handsome face.

It was Lin Zhuwei. She looked at the rushing water under the cliff, curled her lips and sneered a few times, then turned and left.

The plague that had been spreading for five months was finally eliminated, and the emperor and his entourage immediately rushed back to the capital.

Ling Cheyun was very satisfied with the Imperial Hospital's handling of this crisis and praised everyone generously.

He also gave Lin Zhuwei extra rewards and awarded her 100 taels of gold. She was extremely popular at the time.

In Changning Palace, Yuguo knelt on the ground, tears in her eyes, and kept fanning herself.

His face was red and swollen, and blood kept oozing from the corners of his mouth.

"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me." Yuguo did not dare to stop and begged for mercy while beating.

"Yuguo! You are such a good-for-nothing! Before she left, the Queen instructed us so many times that no one could enter or leave the Queen's bedroom at will, and you actually let Lin Zhuwei come to the palace and act so recklessly!"

Xiaoyu was furious and stepped forward and kicked her hard. Yuguo fell to the ground in pain, then quickly got up and kowtowed:

"Your Majesty, please spare my life! Lin Zhuwei has asked the Queen Mother for an imperial decree. I cannot stop you. Please spare my life!"

Concubine Jia had a cold face and waved her hand silently. Xiaoyu quickly said, "Get out of here and stop bothering the queen!"

Yuguo quickly covered her face and retreated.

"Xiao Yu, bring the things to me." Concubine Jia said coldly.

Xiaoyu understood what she meant, and quickly took out the wooden box from the secret compartment of the bed and brought it to Concubine Jia.

Concubine Jia opened it, took out the jade pendant, and examined it from head to toe in her hand, her eyes gradually becoming more sinister.

Concubine Jia handed the jade pendant to Xiaoyu: "Pick some health-promoting things from the palace and send it to that person's palace together with this. Tell her that I asked her to remember the appearance of this jade pendant well."

"Yes, your majesty." Xiaoyu took the order and left.
