Chapter 176 Hairpin

Gu ​​Wuhui was stunned by Yu Chi's words and looked at Gu Wuji. Gu Wuji smiled at him with a bit of pride in his eyes.

Now that the crown prince has not been appointed, the three of them are fighting openly and secretly. It is because Gu Wuyuan and Yu Chi have too much resentment, otherwise they would also come to ask Yu Chi.

After all, whoever can ask someone to cure the emperor will have done a great deed.

In Gu Wuji's proud eyes, Yu Chi's eyes fell on Gu Wuhui, and the corners of his lips curled slightly.

"Why don't we go together? Please lead the way."

Gu Wuhui had no objection, and Gu Wuji didn't say much. When leaving, Yu Chi glanced at Mu Bailinfeng, and Mu Bailinfeng followed behind Yu Chi with understanding.

Gu Jue was not around, so he had to act as a guard to protect Yu Chi. No one in Shangjing knew that Yu Chi's poison had been cured. In that case, he had to play it safe. How could the miracle doctor not have a master guard around him?

When they arrived at the palace, Mu Bailinfeng could not enter the emperor's bedroom, so he could only wait outside the palace. He held his sword and stood in the middle of the door.

Incense was burning in the emperor's bedroom, and the queen and several concubines, as well as several princes and princesses, were waiting.

Yu Chi saluted them.

"Greetings to all the ladies, princes, and princesses."

The ceremony was simple, and Gu Wuyuan beside him snorted coldly. No one, including the queen, dared to say anything wrong.

Now the emperor is in danger, the doctors in the Imperial Hospital are helpless, and since Yu Chi is known as a miracle doctor, he has become their last hope.

There are many people in the room. If they pay their respects to each one, the emperor might have died by the time they finish paying their respects.

The empress stepped forward and asked someone to make room for Yu Chi so that he could make a diagnosis.

Yu Chi sat on a small stool beside the bed and put a silk handkerchief on the emperor's wrist before he took the emperor's pulse.

During the period, he asked about the time of the poisoning and the symptoms, and it was almost always the empress who answered. Finally, Yu Chi withdrew his hand and looked at the empress.

"May I see the prescription written by the imperial physician?"

"Of course."

The empress waved her hand, and someone handed two prescriptions to Yu Chi. After reading them, Yu Chi confirmed that there was no problem with the prescription written by the imperial physician.

After thinking it over carefully, he asked the empress to leave a royal doctor for him to consult. The rest of the people were driven out, leaving only the empress in the room to watch.

After all, it was the emperor's safety, so they had to be cautious.

Yu Chi, who had carefully studied the prescription, found that there was only a slight difference in the prescription. One of the herbs in the first prescription was replaced with another in the second prescription.

And the replaced herb was in conflict with another herb in the first prescription.

Because the emperor's symptoms suddenly worsened, they focused on discussing how to be foolproof, but forgot about the conflict between herbs.

So how could the first prescription aggravate the emperor's condition?

After Yu Chi's analysis, the royal doctors suddenly realized it. They looked at the emperor on the bed. Except for the heaving chest and breathing, there was no reaction.

Yu Chi made a circle in the emperor's room and stopped in front of the incense burner. He placed his slender fingers on the incense burner and dispersed the wisps of smoke rising from it.

The queen saw him stop and asked him,

"But what's the problem with this incense?"

She remembered that this incense was given by Concubine Wan, who said it had the effect of calming the nerves and helping sleep, so she agreed to light it for the emperor.

Yu Chi shook his head.

"It's not a problem with the incense."

Finally, Yu Chi's eyes fell on a small shelf at the end of the emperor's bed, his eyes dimmed.

When he left the palace, it was already late. When he returned to Mo Xueju, Gu Jue and Lin Feng were already waiting for him and Mu Bai Lin Feng.

Yu Chi didn't see Hong Yu and Hei Yao, so he took off his cloak, hung it aside, and asked him.

"Ajue, where are your parents?"

Gujue said, "They went back to the Demon Realm. They said that the emperor has not come back yet, and the Demon Realm cannot leave them for too long."

Yu Chi frowned. He remembered that the Demon Lord of Beixiang had left Beixiang to pick up his wife and children when they were still there. Now two months have passed, how come they haven't been brought back yet?

However, it was useless for him to worry about the affairs of the Beixiang Demon Realm. He just thought about it and stopped talking and sat down to eat.

Yu Chi went to diagnose the emperor every day to check on his condition. He changed the medicine, and now the emperor has shown signs of gradual improvement.

Gu Wuji visited Yu Chi several times during this period and asked Yu Chi what plans Gu Wuhui had there.

Yu Chi told him.

"Gu Wuhui received news that Gu Wuyuan was secretly gathering his men to rush to Shangjing, and they have already taken root thirty miles outside Shangjing."

"And it coincides with the New Year of the Xuan Dynasty. I wonder if the Second Prince has noticed that there are too many people in Shangjing, especially some new faces that are a little different."

Gu Wuji: "Now that you put it that way, it seems to be true..."

He didn't notice at all that his attention was drawn to Gu Wuyuan by Yu Chi.

It's just that there are indeed more people in Shangjing. He didn't pay much attention to it on weekdays, but now that Yu Chi mentioned it, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. With

more people, it's confusing, not to mention that he was attacked by Jiyue Pavilion before, and several servants in the mansion died.

Moreover, the magic sword Yuanjie killed his guards and doctors, and he didn't know why. He had never offended this evil god. No, he didn't know him at all.

Yuanjie was too mysterious, and only a few people had seen him. After being attacked by Yuanjie, he immediately looked for Yu Yao.

After all, Yu Su had fought with Yuanjie before, but now Yu Su was dead. He was eager to get some news about Yuanjie from Yu Yao.

But Yu Yao said that he didn't know.

Because he had never seen Yuanjie, those rumors were not groundless. Almost all the people who had seen Yuanjie were dead, but Yu Yao gave him a scroll.

The scroll depicts a long, thin silver sword with a hollowed-out silver butterfly ornament on the hilt, which looks very beautiful.

Gu Wuji always felt that he had seen this sword somewhere before, but he could not remember where. Just as he was thinking hard, Yu Yao told him that this was the magic sword, Yuanjie.

Now that more people were going to the capital, he was afraid that Yuanjie was lurking among the crowd. He did not understand why Yuanjie killed the people in his house but not him.

But he was afraid. This God of Killing had been widely spread in the martial arts world. Everyone was in danger, even he had heard of it.

He took the scroll with him and showed it to Yu Chi. Yu Chi raised his eyebrows.

"Did Yu Yao give it to you?"

Gu Wuji nodded.

"I always feel like I've seen it somewhere, but I can't remember where."

Yu Chi smiled: "It's on Yu Hexi's hair. You pursued her for so long, and you can't remember what her hairpin looks like?"

Gu Wuji: "..."

He pursued Yu Hexi many years ago, and he couldn't remember a thing.

But when Yu Chi said that, he remembered that Yu Hexi did have a hairpin, exactly the same as the long sword in the scroll.

No wonder he felt familiar with it. But

how could Yu Hexi have a hairpin in the style of the Demon Sword Yuanjie? Yuanjie was once the number one killer of the assassin organization Qiong Yu Lou. He was very mysterious and had disappeared from the martial arts world for many years.

What was the relationship between Yu Hexi and the Demon Sword Yuanjie?

If he knew the intention of the Demon Sword Yuanjie, he might be able to figure out why Yuanjie killed the people in his house.

He was about to investigate Yu Hexi, but was stopped by Yu Chi.

"Instead of investigating Yu Hexi, why not investigate Ranyuelou? After all, Yu Hexi bought the hairpin at Ranyuelou."

Gu Wuji paused, somewhat speechless. It's not that he hadn't investigated Ranyuelou. When the store caught fire in Shangjing, he started to investigate the origin of Ranyuelou.

However, he didn't find anything, including the owner of Ranyuelou. All the investigations showed that Ranyuelou was too innocent.

Yu Chi's eyes fell on his face.

"Why don't you buy information from Jiyue Pavilion? After all, Jiyue Pavilion is still a pretty good intelligence organization compared to Anye."

Gu Wuji's face was slightly stiff, and a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes. Although it was only for a moment, it still didn't escape Yu Chi's eyes.

Yu Chi's eyes were slightly closed, but Gu Wuji turned around.

"Thank you for your suggestion, I will consider it."
