In Xihe Palace, the Queen was sitting beside her holding Gu Miao, while the Emperor was standing in front of the window with a gloomy face.
Several young eunuchs came in from the door one after another and threw a very large cloth bag into the room. The bag was stained with blood. The moment it was brought in, the smell of blood filled the entire room.
Gu Miao, who was still sobbing in the Queen's arms, covered her mouth and nose when she smelled the smell.
"Your Majesty, everything is ready."
The eunuch Li Xiude stepped forward and flattered the emperor.
"We have also sent people to rewash the palace walls. It will be completed within today."
The emperor turned his head and looked at the cloth bag on the ground, frowning. Li Xiu De immediately understood, glanced at the queen and Gu Miao beside him, walked forward and whispered to the emperor.
After hearing Li Xiude's words, the emperor frowned and raised his chin.
"Open."
Li Xiude was stunned and a little embarrassed. Then he looked at the Queen and Gu Miao with some sympathy in his eyes. He waved his hand and said sharply to the young eunuchs:
"Someone, open it."
Immediately, a young eunuch came forward and opened the cloth bag. The moment he opened it, an indescribable smell came out from inside, and pieces of grayish-white limbs appeared in front of several people.
The queen had seen a lot of storms, but seeing this scene, she couldn't help but look defeated.
Gu Miao felt nauseous all of a sudden and covered his mouth to resist the urge to vomit.
"Who on earth is so cruel!"
After calming herself down, the Queen was about to speak. Gu Miao lowered her head and used the Queen's arms to hide her expression.
The emperor looked at Gu Miao with an ambiguous look. The bloody words on the palace wall explained a lot.
But he was not stupid. There was no need for him to doubt his daughter just because of a row of bloodstains on the wall.
"Let's thoroughly investigate this matter. I want to see who is doing this in the palace!"
"cover."
Li Xiu De replied.
Before he finished speaking, a sharp cry from Baolan suddenly came from outside the door.
"Princess! Princess! My lady! My lady! I can't bear it anymore!"
Gu Miao stood up in an instant.
…
In Luo Zhaozhao's courtyard, sounds of pain and screams continued to be heard from inside.
Luo Zhaozhao, who usually speaks softly and gently, didn't care about her manners at this moment. She roared miserably and cried bitterly on the bed, holding her stomach.
The imperial physician next to him was sweating profusely while taking the patient's pulse. He used up most of his strength but still looked puzzled.
After seeing off the Queen and the Emperor, Gu Miao hurried over and saw Luo Zhaozhao rolling around.
"How are you! Zhao Zhao!"
Unfortunately, Luo Zhaozhao couldn't even raise her eyes to look at Gu Miao. She was in so much pain that she was a little unconscious, and when she looked at Gu Miao, she saw double.
This appearance frightened Gu Miao, and he quickly pulled the imperial physician over.
"What's going on with her?"
The doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead, not daring to look into Gu Miao's eyes, and could only kneel down with a thud.
"I... don't know..."
“I don’t know?!”
Gu Miao suddenly raised his voice
"How could you not know? Aren't you the imperial physician? How could you not know?!"
The imperial physician kowtowed hurriedly
"It's not that I didn't try my best, it's just that Miss Luo's illness is so strange!"
"Miss Luo's pulse is very normal and strong, and there is nothing unusual about her tongue or eyes!"
"Her illness is so strange, I really haven't figured it out!"
Next, there was the sound of the imperial physician kowtowing and Gu Miao's angry screams.
At this time, Luo Zhaozhao suddenly became a little sober.
I felt like all my internal organs were being pulled and then tightened.
The pain even reached her head, making it buzz.
She thought of the bowl of medicine that Gu Qingsheng brought her yesterday. With her eyes covered, she saw the place where the medicine was spilled, and she couldn't help but grit her teeth.
Gu, Qing, Sheng.
…
The scene in Prince Duan's Mansion was completely different from that in the Imperial Palace.
Prince Duan came down with a flag in his hand and looked at the chessboard in front of him, feeling a little heavy.
On the other side, Gu Qingsheng was smiling, holding the white chess piece and placing it down.
"Father, you lose."
After hearing this sound, Prince Duan didn't even react. The chess piece he was about to put down fell back into the chess bucket with a snap. He looked at the chessboard in a daze.
It took him a while to realize what went wrong. He slapped his head and said "tsk tsk" twice. Although he felt regretful, he also felt a little happy.
"Qing'er is really good at chess. Even father was fooled by you."
He pointed to a blind spot.
"I thought you were going to attack me here, so I took every precaution against your attack. I didn't expect that I'd miscalculated. You actually found a loophole in my defense and ended up taking me down. I really didn't expect that."
After putting away the chess bucket, Gu Qingsheng took a sip of the tea beside him.
"Father was too concerned with common sense and neglected other things."
"Sometimes, being too vigilant isn't a good thing. As the saying goes, 'Fools have their luck,' and that might be the case right now."
"My father was obsessed with my offensive, thinking that if he could defend against me, he would win. However, he didn't notice that his defenses only exposed more loopholes."
Just like the bowl of medicine given to Luo Zhaozhao.
The poisonous insect inside was made by Gu Qingsheng using a mixture of thirteen kinds of poisonous medicines under the instructions of Miao Lanlan.
If you drink it, the insect will have a tonic effect, but if you don't drink it and just leave it there, pouring it around the room or inside the room, the insect will mix with the air and dissipate, playing its original role.
Luo Zhaozhao herself was cautious and would definitely not drink the medicine she sent in, but she was not so sharp as to pour it far away.
It could be either outside the window or in a flowerpot.
This is Gu Qingsheng’s purpose.
"One more round, Father."
She said to Prince Duan, and Prince Duan naturally laughed happily.
"Okay, okay, come on, play another round with Qing'er."
Luo Zhaozhao, ah Luo Zhaozhao.
If you think that this poison only causes you pain, you are totally wrong.
How can physical pain compare to mental torture?
…
Luo Zhaozhao suffered from this pain for three hours.
During this period, no matter what medicine the Imperial Hospital prescribed, it was of no use. It was not until the afternoon that she began to get better.
Because of the torture of half a day, all the wounds on Luo Zhaozhao's body had opened up.
She was now wrapped in a thick layer of bandages and looked quite fragile and helpless.
"Could this really be Du Wensa's revenge?"
Thinking of the bloody words on the wall this morning, Gu Miao was worried.
"No one knows she's mine. I know the Ruyi Sect well, and they're very tight-lipped and won't leak anything. Even if she's captured, I have every confidence in her loyalty."
