In the dead of night, a cry of alarm rang out.

"My late emperor, you two were already sharing the same bed!"

"I really shouldn't have come tonight. After all, we've been apart for a few days, and it feels like we're newlyweds."

"...Lord Song, wake up and stop talking nonsense."

Other monks break the precepts, never cultivate themselves, and are hypocrites.

His Highness broke the precepts; it was ordained by Heaven.

"Your Highness, how about we change rooms? How can we let the young lady stay in such a simple room?"

"Lord Song, what urgent matter brings you here so late at night?"

"Ah, the old man doesn't sleep much, so he just wandered around and ended up here with His Highness."

"—It's so noisy! You've woken up my bugs!"

The young woman on the bed let out a roar, and the room fell silent.

As Song Changshi looked at the young woman's face under the lamplight, he felt a sense of familiarity. It was as if he had seen her somewhere recently.

His Highness always has a cold expression and is not easy to approach.

This young lady has a round face, which is quite adorable. The more you look at her, the more you like her.

Suddenly, Chief Secretary Song pointed to the area under the pillow.

"Do you want to tie your hair up? Your hairpin is down there."

I'm sleeping in the middle of the night, who wants to tie their hair up?

Qi Su reached under the pillow and indeed found a wooden hairpin.

She glanced at it indifferently, then stuffed it back in.

Without a word, he got out of bed, put on his shoes, and prepared to leave.

I shouldn't have been too lazy to change beds last night because it was cold.

Chief Secretary Song stopped her, "Miss, don't go. I've finished paying my respects to His Highness and am about to leave."

The young monk sitting in meditation by the bed raised his eyes.

In a flat tone, he said, "Now that Lord Song is here, let's discuss the matter of visiting Song Garden in a couple of days."

Ha, looks like they're planning to have a long talk. I won't be able to sleep now.

Qi Su opened the window and jumped out.

Song Changshi sighed.

"Why didn't you stop them?"

The monk frowned.

It's not what you think.

Lord Song chuckled.

"Anyway, when I was young, I would never spend the night with a woman I didn't know well. And I would never leave someone alone in an empty bed when I spent the night with someone."

monks...

This matter is complicated to explain.

So I simply didn't explain anything.

Unexpectedly, Chief Secretary Song was relentless in his pursuit.

"I have also come to see Your Highness several times late at night. Why has Your Highness never invited me to stay the night?"

Dao Ci's expression grew even colder.

For no apparent reason, her words from last night came to mind.

I don't want to sleep with you. I just want to verify whether the Gu worm I developed is incompatible with you.

Don't worry, you don't need to do anything. Just stay with me.

His expression was quite righteous and indignant.

He suppressed his memories of yesterday and said to the old man opposite him:

"Let's get down to business."

.

Upon waking, Dao Ci had just opened his eyes from meditation.

A piece of paper was handed to him.

"Look, the preoperative protocol."

A line of large characters stood out boldly on the white paper:

—Agreement to the execution of the Gu poisoning order.

Agreement content:

Enforcer: Qi Su. Defendant: Yun Wuyi.

I agree to the use of the Gu poison, but I will not tolerate any disputes with medical staff. (Signature here)

Dao Ci looked at it for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?"

Qi Su: "Come on, let me briefly introduce this project. The idea is as follows."

Qi Su opened the small wooden box she had been holding all day yesterday.

There was a hand warmer inside.

Next to the hand warmer was a small round ball wrapped in fur.

She opened the sphere, revealing several worms inside, some hairy and some plump.

She was showing off her treasure like she was presenting a precious gem.

He glanced at Dao Ci, then quickly wrapped it up again and tucked it back into his bosom.

"After last night's verification, these Gu worms seem to have a good impression of you and can be planted."

"After careful research and deduction, I've come to a conclusion. The worm inside your body is too ferocious. Moreover, it has been coexisting with you for over twenty years, making it extremely difficult to expel. Before fully understanding its nature, it's best not to attempt to kill it directly."

"So my strategy is to use delaying tactics."

"I will plant another Gu worm in your body. If one is not enough, two will do. As long as it can achieve a balance with the little fire worm in your body."

Hearing her plan, Hei Xiao'er, who was on duty outside the window, frowned deeply and his face turned ashen.

What's the meaning?

Is this treating the owner's body as a breeding ground for venomous insects?

If one isn't enough, then add two.

Dao Ci did not change color because of her horrified words.

The only question asked was: "What about the risks?"

Qi Su: "It's possible that the new Gu worm that entered the door immediately became the leader. Instead of fighting each other, the two worms teamed up and worked together to make the business bigger and stronger. In that case, you would have two Gu worms in your body causing trouble at the same time."

"Of course, that possibility is very small. The worm inside you belongs to the fire element and has a violent temperament. Logically speaking, it would not tolerate the existence of another Gu worm."

After Qi Su finished explaining, she asked him:

"Have you thought it through? If you have, put your fingerprint on this consent form."

“Or,” she said, holding up the small wooden box, “would you like to spend more time getting to know these little cuties?”

Hei Erxiao broke in through the window.

"This is inappropriate."

"What's wrong with it?"

Hei Xiao Er snatched Qi Su's small wooden box.

“Master, let Yan Thirty-One consider this matter again.”

No, buddy, are you questioning my research abilities?

I was the first to complete the "Poisonous Gu" level in the survival game.

In the end, Lao Tzu relied on his own strength to become the Holy Maiden of the Witch Clan in that world.

His name is still engraved on the Heavenly Ranking, shining brightly in gold.

.

The Black Bird Guards held a closed-door meeting.

The main focus was on the criticism and struggle session concerning Comrade Qi Su.

Hei Xiao Er's expression turned serious, and he was the first to attack.

"Master has only been away from Jincheng for a few days, and you've already developed an antidote?"

Qi Su: "Didn't I say? There's no antidote, this is insect therapy."

"Where did you get those Gu worms?"

"Is that even a question? Of course, it was stolen from the princess of Beiting. Due to limited resources, there's no time to cultivate it now."

"How can you use the insects from her side?"

"I've fixed it. These insects have reformed now."

"No, absolutely not! How can we risk Master's body?"

Ah, all those tea-smoked chicken and smoked fish were ultimately a waste of money.

Believe it or not, I'll plant a curse on you right now and turn you all into a bunch of black pineapples.

Qi Su made a harsh statement.

"You look down on my insects, which means you look down on me. Stay close to your prince, because who knows when I might use my Gu poison to take advantage of the situation."

After saying that, she picked up her wooden box and walked away.

Hei Xiaosan glanced sideways.

"She hasn't even become a princess yet, and she already has such a big temper."

Hei Xiao Er: "Let's ignore her for now. Have you received the master's orders?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of all the Xuan Bird Guards turned solemn.

The master's order is to eliminate the princess of Beiting at the Song Garden Flower Festival two days later.

But we must not leave any evidence against us.

The master rarely issues an order to kill someone.

Especially women.

But in this world, women are never easy to mess with.

This princess, in particular, is skilled in witchcraft.

"Hasn't the Western Rong spies already infiltrated Jincheng? It seems that we'll have to use the Western Rong's name to solve this problem."
