Chapter 251: Raising Gu
Liang Shanyu stretched out her hands and looked at them trembling in confusion.
"What's wrong? It's like you saw a ghost." A lazy voice sounded, and Liang Shanyu immediately looked up.
Ye Xingzhi was lying on the wall with a half-smile on his face, staring at Liang Shanyu.
Liang Shanyu reacted and realized that the bell seemed to ring when she was about to attack Huo Siyuan.
"You... stopped me?" Liang Shanyu looked hesitantly at Ye Xingzhi who jumped off the wall.
Ye Xingzhi raised his eyebrows nonchalantly and said, "I don't think so... Why did your husband ask you to come back? To poison you?"
He guessed right.
It was indeed to let him poison Ye Xingzhi.
Liang Shanyu told Ye Xingzhi what Huo Siyuan wanted her to do.
Hearing this, Ye Xingzhi raised his lip in a mocking manner: "You idiot! Poisoning food is a foolish thing to do. If the truth comes out, you will be the first to be suspected."
Liang Shanyu knew this truth very well, but given her current situation, she had to listen to Huo Siyuan first.
Looking at the lingering sinisterness and hatred in Liang Shanyu's eyes, Ye Xingzhi was very satisfied.
He just needs someone like this, full of hatred.
"Have you poisoned it?" Ye Xingzhi suddenly asked.
Although she didn't know why he asked this, Liang Shanyu shook her head and said, "Liang Moyuan must still be wary of me. If I poison her now, I'll be courting death."
She's not that stupid.
Hearing this, Ye Xingzhi smiled and took out a box of rouge from his sleeve.
The rouge was placed in a glass box. Liang Shanyu took it with joy and couldn't let it go as she looked at its glittering appearance.
Ye Xingzhi smiled silently as he watched Liang Shanyu open the lid.
The rouge inside looks very lustrous and the color is just right. It is obviously a treasure at first glance.
Liang Shanyu's face was filled with surprise that she couldn't hide. Just as she was about to take action, she heard Ye Xingzhi say in a light tone, "This is for you to give to the Crown Prince's Consort."
Give it to Liang Moyuan?
Why should she give such a good thing to Liang Moyuan?
Liang Shanyu bit her lip unwillingly.
Seeing this, Ye Xingzhi sneered in his heart, thinking that she was a short-sighted person.
"I have a highly poisonous insect, called Rouge Gu. It requires a person to feed it with their own flesh and blood for three days. The person infected with it will gradually suffer skin ulceration and become insane, only obeying the orders of the person who feeds it."
These words made Liang Shanyu's eyes become extremely hot and scorching.
He can not only destroy Liang Moyuan's appearance, but also make her obey him!
Liang Shanyu immediately closed the rouge box and looked at Ye Xingzhi with burning eyes.
"What should I do?"
Ye Xingzhi gave Liang Shanyu another box.
The box was very cold, half the size of a fist, and heavy.
"It's still an egg. You can prick your finger and use your blood to make it hatch. After it breaks out of the shell, it will directly recognize its owner."
"Three days later, you can put it in the box of rouge I gave you and give it to the Crown Prince's Consort."
Liang Shanyu stared at the box of poisonous insects in her hand and slowly forced a smile.
"good."
When she returned to the room and saw that Huo Siyuan had not woken up, Liang Shanyu quickly took the knife on the table and sat down in front of the dressing table.
She could see from the bronze mirror whether Huo Siyuan had woken up.
Liang Shanyu held the dagger above her forearm.
She had to be careful not to let others see that she was injured.
The blade cut her skin, and blood rolled out, dripping from the wound onto the equally crimson insect eggs in the box.
Tick, tick.
Liang Shanyu vaguely saw something wriggling in the blood.
In an instant, more than a dozen small insects appeared on her blood, sucking greedily, and growing visibly larger.
If it were in the past, Liang Shanyu would definitely feel disgusted.
But now, there was only excitement in her eyes as she stared at the insect.
Yes, drink more and grow faster!
At dusk, Huo Jinjian returned home.
Liang Moyuan told him that Liang Shanyu had come today.
Huo Jin saw that his brows were furrowed, his slender fingers tapping the table lightly, and his tone was full of worry.
"People from the Second House always have ulterior motives. It's better not to let her come."
Liang Moyuan poured tea for the two of them, took a sip, and then slowly shook her head: "I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it. It's more reassuring to have her by my side."
After all, Liang Shanyu doesn't know martial arts, and there are only a few ways for her to poison someone, and Ye Zhonglin is by Liang Moyuan's side.
Now we know about the existence of poisonous insects.
"What I need to be on guard against now is not what she will do to me, but the purpose of her and Huo Siyuan doing this, and... who is helping them behind the scenes."
Seeing Liang Moyuan's expression, Huo Jin knew that it was useless to persuade her.
He reached out his hand, gently stroked Liang Moyuan's cheek, and whispered, "If you are sure, then do as you think, but be very careful."
No matter how much you worry, it can only be turned into a word of caution.
Liang Moyuan smiled and looked at Huo Jinjian, then raised her hand and pointed at the four maids and Ye Zhonglin beside her: "With them here, don't worry, I won't put myself in danger."
"Your Majesty has given some things. Wei Sanqing has already sorted out the others and sent them to the warehouse, but I think you should like this."
As he spoke, Huo Jin took out an ebony box from his arms.
The moment Liang Moyuan took it, she smelled a faint medicinal fragrance.
When I opened it, I saw an inconspicuous amber bracelet inside.
"Thousand Tiger Eyes?" Ye Zhonglin recognized it at a glance.
Liang Moyuan and Huo Jin looked at him at the same time.
"This isn't ordinary amber made from resin. It's a type of resin called the Concentrating Pine, mixed with various medicinal herbs. The deepest look in its eyes must have taken at least ten years to refine."
