"Your Majesty, I have found out that Mrs. Ningguo Hou secretly took Zhang Guiren away yesterday because he was wearing a brocade suit with sequins, but it is said that it was all a misunderstanding, and he was released soon after. .” The personal maid reported, looking carefully at Concubine Min, who was aloof.

"Pearls?" Min Guifei said the word lightly, and immediately remembered something, she hurriedly sat down in front of the bronze mirror.

When she saw that there were also sequins on her clothes, her expression changed suddenly with fright, and all the cells in her body tensed up. She was about to think of a strategy to deal with it, when she suddenly thought of something, "Huh, the sequins are on both sides. Years ago when Fanbang paid tribute, they were rewarded by the emperor to the concubines and nobles in each palace. Except for three colors, they all looked the same. It seems that King Xiaoyao and others found something, so they have already Are you in action?"

The maid paused, and quickly complimented, "Your Majesty is wise. Although King Xiaoyao did not publicly find out anything, Mrs. Ningguohou, Princess Xiaoyao and King Xiaoyao have been in and out of the harem in the past few days, and they have visited various palaces for various reasons. Nobles and concubines, I think they have clues and are investigating one by one."

Concubine Min snorted coldly, "While I was fighting with that bitch, maybe she accidentally removed the pearls from her body, but so what? The emperor rewarded so many people with the pearls. Is it the murderer who murdered Concubine Yi? These people are really stupid!"

Looking at her radiant face in the mirror, Concubine Yi took a deep breath, and couldn't help admiring: "This man really got rid of the serious troubles in his heart, and his mood improved. Once he is in a good mood, his complexion also improves."

She touched her face carefully, although these days she has not been loved by the emperor, but as long as she remains young forever, the emperor will love her.

"No, why haven't you seen Ling Muer recently?"

Concubine Min found it unusual, "She cared so much about that bitch Concubine Yi, and Concubine Yi defended her everywhere when she was alive, now that she is dead, why did she suddenly disappear?"

Immediately her expression became tense, Concubine Min Gui stared at the maidservant's face reflected in the bronze mirror, "What's going on? Go and find out."

A few days ago after the death of Concubine Yi, Mrs. Ning Guohou, who never entered the palace, suddenly entered the palace. She was called to take care of the emperor, but she kept visiting the bedrooms of the concubines secretly.

And that Concubine Xiaoyao always visited her concubine for various reasons. From the sudden whereabouts of the two of them, she was curious, and she must have accidentally leaked some flaws when murdering Concubine Yi.

But she found out the clothes she was wearing that day, and found nothing unusual, and those two people didn't investigate her bedroom, so she had nothing to worry about.

Anyway, she had already figured it out, even if she was caught, she had the emperor's ban on her body, she was not allowed to enter and leave the bedroom at will, those people still have nothing to do with her.

But Ling Muer was different.

That girl is very stubborn, even Shangguan Shaochen can't hold back her strength, but why hasn't anyone seen her these days?

"Your Majesty, it's not good." Before the servant girl came back, the voice came in first.

"presumptuous!"

Concubine Min was dissatisfied, "Your mother and I are sitting here perfectly, what's wrong?"

The servant girl was so frightened that she knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, calm down, this servant did not mean to contradict your mother, yes, it's the Second Prince's Concubine who is bad."

"Why, but that strange illness has relapsed, is he dead?" Concubine Min felt inexplicably better when she heard that Ling Mu'er was not well.

Ling Mu'er was called a monster. Although no one knew who was behind the scenes and arrested all those who spread the rumors. It was either a threat or a lesson, which caused the rumors to dissipate within a few days, but her illness was an indisputable fact. .

If Concubine Yi hadn't snatched her back seat and made her not in the mood to argue with Ling Muer, she would have really intended to go to the second prince's mansion to fight her strange illness.

"I heard that the night before yesterday, the second concubine fell ill suddenly, and was taken to the Valley of the Medicine King overnight by the second prince." The servant girl reported truthfully, "I don't know if she is dead or not, but it can be seen that the second concubine's condition is very serious."

"Medicine King Valley?"

Concubine Min's eyes rolled, "Ling Mu'er is known as a medical fairy girl, and her medical skills are praised by even the emperor. It is rumored that she even rescued the half-dead Shangguan Shaochen from the hands of Lord Yan back then, but this She couldn't even save herself this time? It seems that her illness is really serious!"

Thinking of her, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips.

"I'm still thinking of some way to suppress her. Don't meddle in Concubine Yi's affairs. Now it seems that even God is helping me!"

Sure enough, the enemy was completely dead, and her good luck had returned.

"You, come here with your ears." She hooked her fingers to the maidservant.

"What are your orders, Ma'am?"

Concubine Min blinked, and a hint of calculation flashed in her eyes, "I can't leave the harem now, and I can't do many things, but don't you have a cousin who works in the palace? He can leave the palace at will, right?"

The maid was taken aback, she never expected that the empress would have ideas about her family.

What kind of cousin, in order not to be discovered by others, he deliberately made excuses, but if the empress wants him to do dangerous things, wouldn't it be harming him?

"Your Majesty, my cousin is just an ordinary guard in the palace, he..."

"One hundred taels."

Concubine Min Gui raised her chin arrogantly as she said, "It's just looking for a few people, just running errands, one hundred taels, you won't lose."

The servant girl was so frightened that she hurriedly lay down on the ground, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, this servant is willing to do my best to your Majesty, and I will only follow your Majesty's orders."

Medicine King Valley.

In the furnace room where the elixir was secretly refined, there were two stone beds on one side of the wall. Shangguan Shaochen and Ling Muer were lying on the stone beds on the left and right sides respectively, and the soft leather tubes exclusively refined by Yaowanggu were connected in the middle, and they were respectively inserted into their arms.

At this time Ling Mu'er has fallen into a coma, if she wakes up, she will be surprised to find that this method is exactly the same as modern surgery, and she will be even more curious about who the master of Medicine King Valley is.

"Your Honorable King must guard the gate, and must not let anyone in. Once interrupted, the lives of these two people may be in danger, hard work!"

Dongfang Que explained, rolled up his wide cuffs, and sat in the middle of the stone bed. With his left and right hands respectively, he pierced two silver needles on their meridians, as if a certain mechanism had been opened, and the red liquid was faintly visible in the soft leather tube slowly flowing. Fleeing.

In order to speed up, the oriental sparrow seemed to do something again, and the speed of blood flow suddenly accelerated.

Seeing this, Su Ce immediately withdrew from the door with a sword in his hand, and let him guard here. He guaranteed that not a single fly could fly in.

"The art of exchanging blood is very secretive and complicated. The process is long and cannot be easily interrupted. Once interrupted, the light ones will go mad, and the severe ones will die suddenly on the spot. Therefore, martial arts experts must be in charge of guarding. You also know that my medicine Since Wang Gu's master suddenly drove west of Hexi a few days ago, many medicine boys have left, and the few medicine boys left behind are also juniors, not to mention kung fu, I'm afraid they can't even stop a pheasant, so..."

"I'll come and watch."

Su Ce recalled everything that happened an hour ago, and he volunteered almost without hesitation.

A generation of virtuous kings was treated as a watchdog, whether it was out of admiration or friendship, he didn't think it was worthless.

"The virtuous king is indeed loyal enough. Well, let the virtuous king guard it. This process will take about two hours. The virtuous king should not take a nap in the middle."

Dongfang Que turned to Shangguan Shaochen and Ling Muer awkwardly, "You two really think about it carefully. The blood exchange technique, as the name suggests, exchanges the blood in the two people's bodies, and because Shangguan Shaochen took the lark fruit, Even if the blood is replaced, it won't cause any damage, but this process is very dangerous. If a certain link is not handled properly, it can still kill two people. Well, I can declare in advance that if any accident occurs, it is not due to my lack of skill home."

Clearly seeing what Ling Muer wanted to say, Shangguan Shaochen just looked into her eyes, serious and serious, "Muer's life is my life, not to mention blood, even if it is the head of Shangren, she wants to take it. When the ball is kicked, I will not hesitate for a moment, you just operate it, and I believe you when I come to you."

"readily."

Dongfangque stood in front of the stone bed and made a gesture of invitation, "Respectfully invite the two little white mice to perform."

Su Ce returned to his senses, and looked sideways at the closed door nervously. An hour had passed, and there was no sound inside.

God knows how much he wishes he was the one who lay in there to change Ling Muer's blood, but God's will is God's will.

He is destined to have nothing to do with Ling Muer in this life.

But it doesn't matter, I, Su Ce, will protect your safety with all my life.

"who!"

Su Ce roared angrily, and just as he finished speaking, the sword in his hand was already out of its sheath.

But the yard was very quiet, where did it look like there was a sign of someone?

"Master Su, who is there, there is no one else here except you and me." Yaotong looked around for a long time, but didn't notice anything unusual, only thought that he was too nervous.

And just as he said these words, a dark dart flew over suddenly, before the drug boy could react, the sword in Su Ce's hand had already stabbed, the tip of the sword was lightly picked, and the dart fell to the ground. Pointing lightly, he stood in the middle of the yard with a vicious aura all over his body.

"With this king here, I want to see who can break into the door behind me!"

Su Ce said that he was late and then fast, rushing towards several people at a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye.

His body turned into a wandering dragon, and the sword in his hand was like a scepter for killing people. When the sword fell, the head fell to the ground. There was a disgusting bloody smell indoors and outdoors.

"Help, master, help!"

The drug boy was terrified, squatting on the ground with his head in his arms and yelling, trying to rush into the secret room behind him.

Su Ce was afraid that the drug boy would disturb Ling Muer and Shangguan Shaochen's blood exchange, so while dealing with the assassin, he flew back and lifted Yao boy up to the roof by his collar.

Opening his eyes coldly, he saw a wave of killers hiding on the roof.

"Su, Mr. Su, I don't know martial arts, so don't leave me alone." Yaotong hugged his thigh tightly.

"Is it possible to play dead?"

After Su Ce left his words, he threw him on the opposite roof. Before the drug boy could cry out, he had already stabbed the killer on the opposite side.

Including the five underground, there are a total of fifteen people, all of whom are top experts, but Su Ce's belief in his heart is very firm, even if it is only himself, he will never let them in.
