Chapter 1340 Layout Start 101.0
"Tianning Temple and the real person who treats my aunt are people close to the Empress Dowager?" Xue Ruitian was taken aback, "Are you sure?"

"Yeah, Xiaoyun, are you sure that's what your mother said?"

"Brother, sister, how dare I talk nonsense about such an important matter?" Song Qiyun nodded, "That's what my concubine said."

"It seems that our guess is correct and accurate."

"What do you guess?" Xue Ruitian looked at Shen Cha with a puzzled expression, "Why can't I understand what you are saying?"

"We suspected before that this was a trick, but there was no conclusive evidence. Now it seems that my intuition is still very accurate." Shen Cha looked at Shen Haolin, then at Jin Miaomiao, and finally his eyes fell on Xue Ruitian's. On the body, "From the time Aunt Xue's illness fell to her death, this is a big situation, the big situation set by the Empress Dowager."

"Tell me, tell me what's on your mind."

"Master, can I really say it?" Shen Cha rubbed his nose embarrassedly, "How can I say that the Empress Dowager is an elder, and she has already passed away..."

"How many times have you said this in private, and now you care about this?" Yan Bo waved his hand towards Shen Cha, "Although you are juniors, you shouldn't be allowed to slander your elders, but the old witch..." He curled his lips in disgust , "It's not considered your elders anymore, except for being your grandfather's concubine, who is still in name only, the rest has little to do with you, so you can say whatever you want, just say whatever you want!"

"Okay!" Shen Cha thought for a while, organized his words a little, and then said slowly, "Aunt Xue was seriously ill after she came out of the palace, and she was always alive and kicking, including when she was in the palace. Also, as far as I know, she didn't get sick immediately after leaving the palace, but only appeared in the middle of the night. From this we can infer that the cause of her illness should be in the palace."

"Why aren't you at home?" Xue Ruitian couldn't help but twitched himself as soon as he asked, "Slip of the tongue, don't worry about it."

"Actually, we also had this suspicion, but..." Shen Cha shrugged, "The possibility of this is not great."

"Understood." Xue Ruitian nodded, "Judging from the reactions of the family members after my aunt fell ill, it shouldn't be the family members who did it." He thought for a while, "If it was in the palace, it shouldn't be the family members In Her Royal Highness' palace, right?"

"There are old records in the palace. Aunt Xue's family went to the following places in the palace that day, the mother's palace, the pond in the imperial garden, and the imperial dining room. This imperial dining room is not a small dining room in the mother's palace. It's the general dining room in the palace."

"There is a small dining room in the mother's palace itself. What is she going to do in the imperial dining room?" Shen Haolin frowned slightly. "Also, is there anything that she must go to in person instead of the maid beside them?"

"This is one of the questions." Shen Cha smiled at Shen Haolin, "The Empress Dowager sent someone to send a message, asking the girl from the Xue family to come to the imperial dining room in person. When she heard that the Xue family girl was here, she ordered the imperial dining room to give Xue The girl from the family has made some snacks, please ask the girl from the Xue family to pick them up."

"Get it yourself?" Seeing Shen Cha nodding, Xue Ruitian showed an incredulous expression, "Is this too obvious? If you want to do something? The Empress Dowager shouldn't be such a stupid person, right?"

"Maybe it's a cover-up, maybe it's because we don't think she's such a stupid person, so we avoided suspicion." Shen Cha raised an eyebrow, "Both explanations are very possible, right?"

"That's right." Xue Ruitian thought for a while, "So, you suspect the Imperial Dining Room?"

"The imperial dining room and the pond in the imperial garden are more suspicious places. People from the Empress Dowager have appeared in these two places."

"No, there should be people from the Empress Dowager in mother's palace." Shen Haolin thought for a while, "Is it possible that they just stood at the door and didn't make contact? I heard from my mother that few people from other palaces can enter In the hall."

"Yes, Brother Haolin." Song Qiyun nodded towards Shen Haolin, "The mother concubine also said that in the palace of the eldest princess, ordinary palace people stand in the corridor outside the palace to answer. Therefore, only the royal dining room Houses and ponds are suspicious."

"I agree with this statement, but..." Hongye held her chin, looked suspiciously at Shen Cha, and then at Jin Miaomiao, "What can make the Xue family get sick again in the middle of the night after returning from the palace?" Is it really a disease, or is it something else? Especially, the Xue family's mother has been suffering from this illness for a long time, and the famous doctors and imperial doctors in Xijing City are helpless, this is very strange!"

"Not only famous doctors and imperial doctors, monks and Gu masters can't solve it." Xue Ruitian also looked at Jin Miaomiao puzzled, "What can trouble these people? It's unreasonable!"

"If I'm not wrong, it should be a Gu worm. This is a common method used by the Qinglian Sect." Shen Cha looked at Jin Miaomiao, "This can also explain why the people outside the party refused to take action, and they did not solve it." No, it's just that they can't solve it."

"Why not?"

"There are rules in their profession. Unless they are extremely high-level celestial masters, they can break the Gu master's Gu without being backlashed. Other Gu masters are very taboo about this." Jin Miaomiao thought for a while, "At present Looking at it, it should be a Gu worm. Whoever laid it down will untie it. If it is confirmed that the person in Tianning Temple is someone close to the Empress Dowager, then this guess is basically the truth. The Xue family's empress was laid down in the palace. If you want to get rid of the Gu worm, you have to invite the person who laid the Gu, that's why people from the Xue family..." She looked at Xue Ruitian, "I will ask the Empress Dowager."

"Understood." Xue Ruitian nodded, "As soon as the Empress Dowager's people come out, aunt's illness will be cured. It's just that aunt has been controlled by them, and she doesn't want to harm others, so she has a temper, yes no?"

"It should be, it's not good to say now."

"Whose idea was it that Aunt Xue entered the palace to become a concubine?" Shen Haolin looked at Xue Ruitian and then at Song Qiyun, "The late emperor himself, or..."

"Empress Dowager!" Shen Cha replied before Shen Haolin finished speaking, "I've read the old files, and the late emperor was close to the Xue family, so he agreed."

"So that's how it is." Shen Haolin rubbed his chin, "Then the plot you mentioned can be established. Aunt Xue's family is controlled and becomes the concubine of the late emperor, and then she can attack the late emperor, or control the late emperor through her to reach the empress dowager." And the purpose of Qinglian Sect behind her."

"Yes." Shen Cha nodded, "But obviously, the ending was different from hers. Aunt Xue did not help her, but destroyed her plan. Therefore, in desperation, the Empress Dowager could only let She will get out as soon as possible, lest she suffer even more losses."
