Tang Dynasty: The seventh rank of official residence, and you will be given the Ten Thousand People

Chapter 175: Xi Langzhong, what do you think?
Fan Xin stared at Zhang Changyi and said: "As long as it is beneficial to the Tang Dynasty, I will spare your life!"

He was curious about what secrets Zhang Changyi, a local governor, could know.

Zhang Changyi hesitated and said: "Yesterday during the court trial in the main hall, the lower official accidentally tore off Zhang Changzong's sleeve."

"I saw a silver snake tattooed on his arm."

Fan Xin's expression changed, and he quickly walked to the big case and took out a secret file from the drawer.

"Is it this kind of tattoo?"

The tattoos on the file were rubbed from a man named Viper when he solved two major cases.

According to the investigation, this person was codenamed Viper and came from a mysterious organization called Snake.

The members of this organization are composed of Queen Wang and the surviving descendants of Li Tang, and are responsible for assassination and sabotage.

If Zhang Changzong also came from this organization, everything would be terrible.

"Yes, the tattoo on Zhang Changzong's arm is exactly the same as this one. The only difference is the color." Zhang Changyi glanced at the rubbing and said for sure.

"And he is not my brother. The real Zhang Changzong is afraid of snakes. He is probably dead."

Speaking of this piece, Changyi felt sad and wiped her tears.

Looking at Zhang Changyi and Fan Xin who looked miserable, murderous intent filled his eyes.

He never dreamed that Zhang Changzong would be fake, nor did he expect that these killers would dare to sneak into Wu Zetian's side.

If something happened, wouldn't everything be over?
After thinking about this, Fan Xin ordered people to guard Zhang Changyi and left Dali Temple alone.

"Master, why do you look so ugly?" Seeing that his expression was wrong, Liu Zi asked in a low voice.

"Liuzi, please inform the spy to closely monitor Zhang Changzong's movements.

"Also, tell the generals in the Beijing camp to immediately block the Luoyang main road and everyone will be investigated."

"Especially those with tattoos will be arrested!"

"Young man, let me know right now!" Liuzi cupped his fists and disappeared on the street.

Looking at the dark night, Fan Xin sighed worriedly.

"I hope it's all in time."

……

Guanfeng Hall, sleeping palace.

"Your Majesty, this is the fairy soup I've just prepared for you. Drink it while it's hot."

Putting the poppy soup on the table, Zhang Changzong said with a smile on his face.

"Isn't it half a catty before? Why has it increased so much?"

Looking at the fragrant fairy soup in front of her, Wu Zetian licked her lips excitedly.

"The previous dose of medicine is no longer enough. I'll give you more to help you get better faster."

"No wonder I always feel unsatisfied after drinking it recently. It turns out the portion is not enough."

Wu Zetian smiled slightly, picked up the poppy soup and took a sip. As the soup poured into her belly, her whole figure seemed to be floating on the cotton.

A sense of pleasure radiates from the inside out.

Seeing Wu Zetian falling into a dream with an obsessed face, Zhang Changzong smiled coldly and walked towards the barrel with the remaining medicine dregs.

"You two bury the medicine residue in the same place. Remember, if anyone asks, just say it is the rhubarb and lotus seed soup prescribed by the imperial doctor Shu."

"Yes, Divine Doctor Zhang."

The two palace ladies bowed, carried the medicine residue to the imperial garden in front of Guanfeng Hall, and poured the medicine residue under the roots of the tree.

However, what they didn't know was that a pair of eyes in the darkness were watching them silently.

After he left, he dug out the medicinal residue under the roots of the tree and disappeared into the night.

"Master, this is the medicine that Zhang Changzong gives to the Queen Mother every day. All our people have brought it back to you."

"Invite Xi Langzhong here and let him see what ingredients are in this medicine residue."

Fan Xin picked up a handful of the dregs and smelled it. The smell was very similar to the poppy flavor that restaurants in later generations often secretly added to increase repeat customers.

Not long after, Xi Langzhong arrived at the General's Mansion carrying a medicine box.

"The common people have seen the general."

"You don't need to be polite when you are married. I have a pair of medicines. Let's see what the ingredients are."

Xi Langzhong cupped his hands and said to the disciple on the side: "Telfu, please smell it first." "Yes, master."

Defu walked to the dregs of medicine, picked out a few and smelled them.

a long time.

He opened his eyes and whispered a few words in Xi Langzhong's ear, and the latter spoke.

"General, the medicine dregs are full of soothing herbs, but there is only one that is special."

"Oh, how special?"

Fan Xin's eyes lit up and he asked impatiently.

"It's this unknown thing. When I was treating people in Yingzhou, I met a patient who became uncontrollable after eating this and was worse than dead."

Xi Langzhong held the poppy shell and said.

"It really is this thing!"

Fan Xin's eyes burst out with endless killing intent, damn Zhang Changzong, he actually used drug addiction to make the Queen Mother unable to live without him!
He deserves death!
Forcibly suppressing the murderous intention in his heart, Fan Xin glanced at Xi Langzhong's master and apprentice.

"Please give me a prescription to nourish your body. I will send it to the Queen Mother tomorrow.

"Little man obeys!"

The next day.

Fan Xin came to the palace with a food box to ask for an audience. When he heard that he was here, Wu Zetian happily asked someone to open the palace door.

"Fan Aiqing, why did you think of visiting me today?"

Because she had just finished drinking the poppy soup, Wu Zetian's mental outlook looked very good.

"Back to the Queen Mother, I personally made a Shiquan Dabu Decoction and brought it to you to try."

Fan Xin opened the lid of the box, and suddenly a strong medicinal fragrance floated in the air.

Wu Zetian nodded with satisfaction after hearing it.

"Yes, it's really impressive that a man like you can make such a delicious Dabu soup."

"Here, bring two spoons! I want to try Shiquan Dabu Decoction with Fan Aiqing."

Manager Geng bowed and ordered two pairs of gold bowls and spoons to be brought.

"Your Majesty, my servant will try this delicious tonic soup for you first."

Wu Zetian smiled and waved her hands.

"No need, if I can't even trust Fan Aiqing, then who else can I trust?"

As he spoke, he picked up the spoon and scooped a little of the Dabu soup into his mouth.

Seeing this scene, the onlookers were a little surprised, especially Zhang Changzong, who became more and more jealous when he saw that Wu Zetian trusted Fan Xin more than he did.

After drinking the Shiquan Dabu Decoction, Fan Xin put down his spoon and said.

"I have an important matter to discuss with the Queen Mother. You should go out first."

"Yes."

After the palace maid left, Zhang Changzong wanted to hear what the big deal was, but Fan Xin glanced at him.

"Zhang Changzong, you also go out."

"you!"

Zhang Changzong's face froze, and he waved his sleeves and robes bitterly and left the Guanfeng Hall.

The time has not come yet. When Wu Zetian ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor in a few days, he will definitely kill this guy with his own hands.

"You kid almost regards my Guanfeng Hall as your own home."

"Tell me what big event it is that requires you to come in person."

Putting the spoon down, Wu Zetian wiped her mouth and said.

"I can't hide anything from the Queen Mother. I really have something big to report to you."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Wu Zetian frowned and asked in confusion.

Fan Xin took out a secret book from his sleeve and sighed.

"You'd better see for yourself..."
