Dare to lose the country and live up to the emperor II

"Really?" Xiaoman got up and was about to leave, "Since the prince already knows, then I will leave."

"Princess." Yang You's voice suddenly appeared.

Xiaoman walked away without saying anything.

As soon as Yang You entered the room, he hurried to help Pang Ce. At this time, he finally saw the person coming, but he was weak.

"General, I'll pour you a glass of water." Yang You walked to the table to pour water, but found that the kettle was empty, looked at his feet again, and couldn't help but yelled, "It's poisonous."

Pang Ce got up from the bed, stumbled and walked to the table, almost fell down, but fortunately Yang You helped him in time.

The bricks on the ground have been corroded, obviously caused by the poison, the pot of water that Xiaoman poured just now was really poisonous.

"It was only last night that someone tried to kill Lord Gongsun, and today someone poisoned the general's kettle. It seems that these people are all around us." Yang You said what happened last night inadvertently.

"Kill Gongsun Mingyue?" Pang Ce grabbed Yang You and asked eagerly, "Is he all right?"

"It's all right. Fortunately, the general has advanced knowledge and has already arranged someone in the study. Otherwise, Mr. Gongsun may not escape the murderous hands this time. Moreover, afterwards, I found someone to test Mr. Gongsun's calming tea, and found that it contained the ingredients , no wonder he doesn't wake up no matter how much he pushes."

Pang Ce's face turned blue and black, did he want to kill them all?Zhan Pei didn't know where he went, and now he must be safe no matter what, otherwise...

"Yang You, it seems that there are already our opponents in the mansion, you should check secretly to see who is more suspicious." Pang Ce stared outside, motionless.

"General, I think Xiaocui next to the princess is very suspicious. How could it be such a coincidence that Uncle Wu's death was discovered by her?" Yang You said with a puzzled expression, "And that Uncle Wu, an ordinary gardener , who wants to put him to death?"

"Xiao Cui, don't worry about it, just check other people." Pon Ce coughed a few times and said, "Get me some water, my throat is about to smoke."

This palace is really getting more and more interesting.

……

A few days later, Pang Ce was going to ask Gongsun Mingyue about the cause of Uncle Wu's death. When he entered the study, he was startled. Gongsun Mingyue put more than half of the books on the ground. Sitting in the middle of the mountain of books, with his head down, he flipped through the pages quickly.

"Master Gongsun, are you going to demolish this king's place?" Pang Ce's voice came from outside the mountain, but Gongsun Mingyue didn't raise his head.

"Master Gongsun." Pon Ce's voice was a little louder.

"Understood, I am not deaf, and I will definitely not dismantle your place. I will naturally put it back in place for you after I finish watching." Gongsun Mingyue's voice floated from the mountain.

"Put it back in place? Master Gongsun still remember?" Pang Ce's voice was in disbelief.

When Gongsun Mingyue heard Pang Ce's words, she put down the book in her hand, raised her head, and picked it up casually: "This "Huangdi Neijing Suwen" is on the second and third grid on your left, and "Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases" " is placed on the tenth frame on the fourth floor, and "Synopsis of the Golden Chamber" is placed on the fifth frame on the first floor to your right, and..."

"Okay, okay." Pang Ce couldn't help interrupting him, "I know Mr. Gongsun has a good memory, so don't show off now."

"What is showing off? This is called strength, do you understand what it means?" Gongsun Mingyue was immediately unhappy when he heard that he was showing off. He stood up and raised his voice a little bit.

Pon Ce couldn't help laughing, this man is really serious.

"Did Mr. Gongsun find the answer?" Pang Ce walked to the desk and sat down.

"Oh, not yet, it's almost ruined, but I still don't know anything about it." Gongsun Mingyue sighed deeply, "I think you must have made a mistake, some heartbroken grass, something else... , there is no basis at all."

Pang Ce was about to say something, when suddenly a figure flashed into the study, Pon Ce couldn't help being alert.

"Brother Gongsun, what Pang Ce said is right, it's really a heartbroken grass." This was clearly Zhan Pei's voice.

"Zhan Pei, you're back." Gongsun Mingyue excitedly pushed aside the mountain of books, wrapping Zhan Pei up all at once.

"Brother Gongsun, I'm back." Zhan Pei showed childish joy.

"How is it?" Gongsun Mingyue asked eagerly.

Zhan Pei looked at Pang Ce and said with a smile, "It's thanks to General Pang this time."

Pang Ce looked puzzled: "My lord?"

"Yeah, without you, Zhan Pei really doesn't know what to do."

"Oh," Ponce shook his head and said, "The king is really curious about how he helped you."

Zhan Pei pointed to the outside and said, "Didn't you keep sending people to follow me?"

"It's true." Ponce didn't hide it.

"Fortunately, your subordinates know the ghost doctor Liang Zhongxuan, so I found out what kind of poison it is." Zhan Pei crossed his hands in front of his chest, looking smug.

"What, Wu Yong knows the ghost doctor." Pang Ce stood up and called out the door, "Wu Yong."

Wu Yong lowered his head and said tremblingly: "This subordinate is incompetent, please give me a punishment from the general."

"Tell me exactly what happened, otherwise you will be punished." Pang Ce walked to Wu Yong, pointed to his nose and said.

"My subordinate followed Zhan Shaoxia for only one day and was screwed out by him. Fortunately, Zhan Shaoxia let me follow him, but I later found out that he was looking for drugs, so I took him to Brother Liang." Wu Yong knew This time the general was really angry, he hurriedly poured beans out of a bamboo tube and told everything.

Pang Ce stared at him like a torch and asked, "How did you know the ghost doctor?"

"Let me say this." Zhan Pei didn't wait for Wu Yong to speak, and immediately said, "Because General Wu saved Liang Zhongxuan when he was young, and the ghost doctor has been in touch with him in order to repay his kindness."

Pang Ce glared at Wu Yong, as if he was settling accounts after autumn, and Wu Yong lowered his head even further in fright.

Zhan Pei continued: "Fortunately, with the help of the ghost doctor, I finally found out that this is indeed a kind of poison that was fed and raised by mixing with other poisonous weeds."

"What poison?" Gongsun Mingyue asked eagerly.

"Nine Toads." Zhan Pei said an unfamiliar name.

"What is this?" Gongsun Mingyue kept patting his head with his hands.

"The ghost doctor doesn't know, but he generally thinks it should be a kind of animal, because in the process of breeding, they are constantly fed with heartbroken grass and various poisonous weeds and poisonous substances, so they themselves are poisonous. Once contaminated with their blood, human beings will die I will die overnight." Zhan Pei said while gesturing.

"Last time the night watchman said he smelled a sweet smell, what's going on?" Gongsun Mingyue blushed when he said this.

Ponce stared at him with hazy eyes.

"Brother Gongsun probably couldn't have imagined it," Zhan Pei folded his hands on his chest, "Yu Linglong."

"What? Yu Linglong." Gongsun Mingyue's eyes widened, which was indeed beyond his imagination.

"Yu Linglong can temporarily suppress this toxicity by taking it after mashing it up, but it needs to be taken every day. If one day she refuses to accept it, she will gradually die in a deep sleep. After death, her appearance will be the same as that of ordinary people, except for Jiutoo. The poison of the toad will be doubled, forcing out the accumulated Yu Linglong in the body, accelerating the decomposition of the corpse, and the fragrance of Yu Linglong will also be released during the process, which is the origin of the sweet smell." Zhan Pei shook his head triumphantly.

"Then how to completely detoxify this poison?" Ponce asked aside.

"Except for the person who made the poison, no one knows the antidote, because it is necessary to know which poisonous weeds and poisons are being fed, and the order cannot be wrong, otherwise the detoxification will only make the toxicity occur faster."

"Since the ghost doctor knows how to make it, could this be made by him?" Ponce asked.

"Definitely not." Zhan Pei's affirmative tone made Gongsun Mingyue feel strange.

Zhan Pei looked at Gongsun Mingyue's puzzled eyes and smiled: "Jiutoad is extremely sensitive to climate and region, as long as there is a slight difference in temperature and humidity, they will die, so there is only one place in the world where this poisonous thing can be raised."

"Where?" Gongsun Mingyue shouted with Pang Ce.

"Queling Mountain." Zhan Pei couldn't help laughing at the two of them, and the expressions of the two in front of him were actually exactly the same.

"Isn't that in Nanxia?" Gongsun Mingyue suddenly realized, "Li Mingtang."

Now is the critical time for the peace talks between Yan Xi and Nan Xia, even a slight mistake may lead to the failure of the peace talks.

A homicide in the palace is not a major event, but if the investigation is done by Li Mingtang, then the peace talks may fail. Maybe this is a conspiracy by the Nanxia people. Thinking of this, Gongsun Mingyue secretly yelled that it was not good. The letter to Yan Xi must be recovered immediately.

Seeing Gongsun Mingyue's face suddenly turned pale, Zhan Pei asked with concern: "Brother Gongsun, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, it's okay." Gongsun Mingyue was a little absent-minded.

"Master Gongsun, since the cause of the poison has been found, what about these books from the king?" Pang Ce looked at the mountain of books behind him, and sighed secretly.

"Don't worry, my lord, Gongsun Mingyue will definitely put it back in its original place." Gongsun Mingyue gave him a blank look, this is how this person holds grudges.

"I'll read that book at dinner." Pang Ce walked out of the study with his hands behind his back, and Wu Yong followed closely behind with his head down.

"Brother Gongsun, don't worry, with my help, it will be fixed soon." Zhan Pei patted him on the shoulder and comforted him.

To say that it didn't seem too difficult to move from the top to the bottom at the beginning, but I didn't expect that it would be so hard to return to the original position.

Zhan Pei and Gongsun Mingyue stayed busy until dark before they managed to put the book back in place, but both of them were so tired that they slumped on the ground and didn't want to move.

Pon Ce looked at the neatly tidied study room, nodded in satisfaction, and muttered to himself, "Not bad, not bad."

"You can only say good things, but you've exhausted us, and you don't know how to send a few flying cloud riders to help us." Zhan Pei glanced at him unwillingly.

"Feiyunqi is used for fighting, why do these useless work in the study." Pang Ce walked around the bookshelf, nodded in satisfaction.

"Who do you say is doing useless work?" Gongsun Mingyue hated this attitude of looking down on scholars the most, and he stood up angrily.

"Master Gongsun calm down, today Pang is the host, and I treat you two to dinner, it's a reward for you to find out the cause of death." Pang Ce patted him on the shoulder, but Gongsun Mingyue avoided it.

"Dinner, where should we go to eat?" Upon hearing that there was food to eat, Zhan Pei stood up cleverly.

"Keyun is here."
