After the villain was defeated, she still had power in the government

Tan Xingxian lived up to expectations and quickly found out everything.

Because this matter involved the harem and the queen even lost her life, the emperor of the previous dynasty ordered the execution of the wandering sorcerer on the grounds of offending the majesty of heaven, and the concubine who committed the crime was also given white silk.

Later, at the suggestion of Tan Xingxian, in order to prevent anyone from continuing to use this poisonous insect to harm others, the emperor of the previous dynasty took drastic measures to completely destroy the method of refining the living-replacing-death poison and all the poisonous insects.

After that, there was no more living-taking-the-death Gu in the world, and no one heard any news about it.

"As for the method of refining the Living-Substitute Gu, apart from the previous emperor, only the former prime minister Tan Xingxian who was in charge of the investigation knew it." Xiaoyan frowned. The previous emperor hated it so much that he wished that the Living-Substitute Gu would disappear completely, so he naturally would not tell others the method of refining it, but Tan Xingxian...

Xiao Yan paused and guessed, "Could it be that he leaked it?"

As soon as this was said, Xiao Feng immediately refuted, "Although Tan Xingxian was a minister of the previous dynasty, his loyalty and integrity were praised by Emperor Taizu. How could he do such a thing? Besides, it was he who proposed to destroy the Gu worm. Moreover, the previous dynasty was more than a hundred years ago. If he really leaked it, why haven't we heard any news about catching the living and substituted the dead Gu in the past hundred years?"

Can the person who obtained the method endure not using it for more than a hundred years?

If it's not going to be used, what's the point of refining it?

"This……"

Xiao Yan choked up, and couldn't think of any rebuttal for a moment, so she could only say, "Then tell me, where did the life-catch-the-death Gu on the young master come from?"

"No need to think, it must be that bastard Fu Yutang who did it!" Xiao Feng listed Fu Yutang as the first suspect without thinking, "Besides him, who else in the whole capital has a grudge against our young master?"

After a pause, he continued, "However, now is not the time to trace the source of the poisonous insect. The most important thing right now is to find a way to help you get rid of the poison!"

As long as the poison is not eliminated, the young master's life will be controlled by others and he will be subject to others at all times.

This makes sense.

Xiaoyan nodded secretly. He didn't expect that Xiaofeng, who was always impulsive, could be so calm and rational. He looked at him approvingly and asked Jixue with lowered eyebrows, "Sir, I think what Xiaofeng said is right. What do you think?"

Jixue had no expression on her face. It was very easy to determine whether Fu Yutang was the one who cast the curse. All she had to do was send someone to find out whether she was bitten by a dog today.

But as Xiaofeng said, the most important thing now is not to trace the source of the living-substitute Gu, but to remove the poison as soon as possible before the other party makes any other moves, so as not to be controlled by others in the future.

Thinking of this, his long eyelashes trembled, covering his dark pupils, hiding the cold and stern aura in his eyes. He pondered for a moment and ordered in a low voice: "Xiaoyan, go get the pen, ink, paper and inkstone."

Xiaoyan said "yes" and quickly prepared what Jixue wanted.

Jixue propped herself up, spread the paper on the small table that Xiaofeng had brought over, picked up a pen and wrote a short letter. After the ink dried, she motioned Xiaoyan to put it in an envelope and said in a deep voice, "Send someone to deliver this letter to Senior Jiangnanxing, and arrange a team of guards to take him there. If anyone asks, just say that he and I hit it off right away and I specially invited him to visit the capital."
