Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country

Shen Mutang sat beside Nan Rongjing with a solemn expression, one hand on Nan Rongjing's wrist.

With a frown on his face, he carefully checked Nan Rongjing's pulse.

"Strange, strange, really strange, the poison in your body has actually improved!"

Shen Mutang was overjoyed. The hand that was taking Nan Rongjing's pulse grabbed Nan Rongjing's sleeve and shook it continuously, his face full of curiosity.

"Tell me quickly, what did you do to make the Gu insect retreat?"

Nan Rongjing shook off his hand in disgust and straightened his wrinkled sleeves.

"Maybe it's because I've been seeing you so much lately."

Shen Mutang was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He jumped up and pointed at Nan Rongjing with anger on his face.

"Don't think I can't hear you making fun of me. If I had the ability to scare off the Gu King, I'd be really awesome!"

Seeing Shen Mutang jumping up and down in anger, Nan Rongjing was in a rare mood to smile happily.

"No matter what method you use, it's a good thing that the insects are retreating. If you persist, you may be able to make them completely immobile."

Shen Mutang looked serious. The poisonous insect in Nan Rongjing's body was not ordinary, and it was almost impossible to control it.

After years of research, Old Master Shen finally confirmed that the poisonous insect in Nan Rongjing's body was the sacred object of the East Witch Kingdom - the Gu King, the gold-eating Gu.

The Dongwu Kingdom borders the Youzhou of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is a small country that believes in water gods and is good at witchcraft.

The citizens of Dongwu are divided into the White Witch Tribe and the Black Witch Tribe. Dongwu is jointly governed by the king and the high priest.

Under the high priest there are the white priest of the white witch clan and the black priest of the black witch clan.

In addition, the East Witch Kingdom also has a saint and many sacred objects.

The saint girl is paired with the king, and she will not have sex with the king again until she gives birth to a baby girl.

If the first child is a boy, he will become the next high priest, the white priest or the black priest.

If the saint gives birth to multiple boys and the position of priest is not vacant, these boys can participate in the election of the leader as princes.

If a baby girl is born, she will be the next saint.

This cycle repeats itself endlessly.

After years of investigation by Nan Rongjing, he learned that the East Witch Kingdom had an extremely secret tradition.

If a saint gave birth to a stillborn baby, she would be considered abandoned by the water god and would be subjected to water torture.

As for what water torture was like in the East Wu Kingdom, Nan Rongjing didn't know. Even the people in the East Wu Kingdom didn't know about the existence of water torture.

The Dongwu Kingdom likes to raise Gu, and the gold-eating Gu is the best of all Gu, so the gold-eating Gu is one of the sacred objects of the Dongwu Kingdom.

With the gold-eating Gu in his body, Nan Rongjing is immune to all poisons, but his own flesh and blood will be used to nourish the gold-eating Gu, so he will die sooner or later.

The reason why the gold-eating Gu is regarded as a sacred object by the East Witch Kingdom is that in addition to eating human flesh and blood, it also likes to eat gold.

The gold-eating insect can sense gold within a radius of dozens of miles and move towards the place with the largest gold reserves.

The Dongwu Kingdom took advantage of the gold-loving insect's characteristics and found a large amount of gold mines!

The treasury of the East Witch Kingdom is almost entirely filled by the gold-eating Gu, which ensures the prosperity of this small country.

But twenty years ago, the gold-eating Gu of the East Witch Kingdom suddenly disappeared.

In the fifth year, the young Nan Rongjing was poisoned. After years of diagnosis and treatment by Old Master Shen, it was confirmed that the lost sacred object of the East Witch Kingdom, the gold-eating Gu, was in Nan Rongjing's stomach!

No one knows why the gold-eating insect appeared in Nan Rongjing's stomach.

Nan Rongjing thought privately that this might be the reason why Prince Jin stayed in Youzhou all year round and did not return to the court. Prince Jin was also looking for the secret of the gold-eating Gu.

Nan Rongjing sends shadow guards to the East Witch Kingdom to gather information every year, but until now, he still doesn't know how to get the gold-eating Gu out of his body.

The gold-eating Gu mysteriously appeared in his body, and Nan Rongjing once suspected his deceased mother.

Not long after he was born, his mother died of illness, and the King of Jin suffered for a long time.

Nan Rongjing guessed that maybe his mother had a connection with the East Witch Kingdom, so the gold-eating Gu appeared on him.

But his mother, Shen, was just an ordinary lady from a noble family on the side branch of the Shen family. No matter how Nan Rongjing investigated, he could not find out the relationship between his mother Shen and the East Witch Kingdom.

After the Dongwu Kingdom lost the gold-eating Gu, there was a great chaos in the Dongwu Kingdom. The king and the high priest at that time joined forces to suppress the riot and finally stopped it.

Before the Gold-Eating Gu was lost, the Eastern Witch Kingdom had harassed the Youzhou border of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the King of Jin was ordered to lead an expedition to suppress them.

Therefore, the Dongwu Kingdom, which was unable to find the gold-eating Gu, became angry and humiliated, and even slandered that the gold-eating Gu was stolen by spies from the Great Zhou.

Soon after, the Dongwu Kingdom severed all ties with the Great Zhou, and often caused riots on the border of Youzhou.

The Prince of Jin volunteered to go to war and left the capital again when Nan Rongjing was two years old to guard Youzhou, which finally calmed down the restless Dongwu Kingdom.

Until now, the Dongwu Kingdom is still constantly searching for the gold-eating Gu and often sends spies into the Great Zhou to gather information.

Therefore, the fact that Nan Rongjing was infected with the gold-eating Gu was top secret, and only four people around him knew about it: his father Prince Jin, Old Master Shen, Shen Mutang, and Mu Shang.

If this matter were to be publicized, not to mention that the Eastern Wu Kingdom would surely not be able to resist dissecting Nan Rongjing alive to take out the Gu, even the current emperor Ming would be drooling over the gold-eating Gu and would try every means to seize it.

By then, Nan Rongjing would definitely be dead!

In fact, Nan Rongjing also once suspected Prince Jin.

After all, among Nan Rongjing’s people, only his father had been to Youzhou before he was born and had contact with the Eastern Wu Kingdom.

But Nan Rongjing couldn't understand. Even if Prince Jin had stolen the gold-eating Gu, why did he put the Gu into his own son's body and tortured him for so many years?

Moreover, after years of investigation, Nan Rongjing did not find any evidence that his father stole the gold-eating Gu.

Both publicly and privately, Nan Rongjing was unwilling to believe that the poison he had contracted had anything to do with his father and mother.

Nan Rongjing stared at his abdomen. At this moment, the gold-eating insect was quietly lurking in his abdomen, eager to steal his heart.

Is this really getting better now?

Even if the gold-eating insect retreated to its original position and continued to linger in his lower abdomen, it was still there.

The real way to detoxify is to expel the poison from Nan Rongjing's body.

Unfortunately... no one knows how to do it.

A gloomy mood once again enveloped Nan Rongjing's heart, causing him to become violent once again.

"What are you going to do?"

Seeing Nan Rongjing suddenly rush out of the house, Shen Mutang asked in confusion.

"My hands are itching, so I peel off some skin and make a human skin drum."

Nan Rongjing left without looking back.

Shen Mutang's stomach was churning.

He shouldn't have asked so much!
