Chapter 653 The Tricky Queen (24)

Jiang Muxue had never communicated with Su Er Jiaying about the person who played Gu, so Su Er Jiaying never suspected Xia Zhenji.In fact, according to her usual feelings, Concubine De is more likely.

Just now, when she saw Xia Zhenji's appearance, she was even more sure that the person who played the trick was probably De Concubine.

"Does the Empress have any ideas after seeing this scene?" Liu Jing stared at Jiang Muxue with a half-smile, as if if she moved her lips and said something that wasn't what he wanted, the other party would definitely chase her away.

As soon as Liu Jing spoke, the hall became even more silent.

"I remember that Concubine Xian also had a cut in her arm, but is there such a thing?" Seeing that Jiang Muxue was silent, Liu Jing looked at Su Erjiaying again.

After finishing speaking, he ordered someone to pull Su Erjiaying's arm.

"Your Majesty doesn't have to be like this, I'll just show you." Su Er Jiaying said aggrievedly, and rolled up her sleeves, revealing the wound that had begun to scab.

Others were only a little surprised when they saw the scabbed hole, but Xia Zhenji turned pale with shock and disbelief. According to her and Ya Ge's calculations, the queen should have an expert by her side, and Su Erjiaying's Gu insects should also use public Gu or The medicine induced vomiting, but why did she also make a hole to let the Gu worm crawl out?
Xia Zhenji felt that she had made another mistake.

"I don't know, but you have to cut someone's body when you see a doctor. Empress, tell me why?"

"Your Majesty, there are some things I can only say to you alone."

Jiang Muxue said that the matter was of great importance, but this time Liu Jing ignored it, and glanced at everyone, "Just say it here, whoever dares to spread the word in private, die!"

Jiang Muxue didn't dare to evade any more, so she quickly organized her words and told the whole story half-truthfully, "At the beginning, Concubine Xian helped me to assist Liugong and suddenly fell ill. I felt sorry and went to visit her. The disease was exactly the same as that of the deceased Li Rongpin, so I became suspicious. Although they were all wind and cold, but the illness was so similar, it was very strange. My first suspicion was poisoning, and later all the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital verified it. Non-toxic. Just when I was at a loss and Concubine Xian became more and more ill, I accidentally discovered that there seemed to be something crawling under Concubine Xian's skin..."

Speaking of this, Liu Jing's face changed drastically.

Jiang Muxue glanced at him calmly and continued: "When I was young at home, I once read a miscellaneous book about strange things. It once said a special kind of poison called Gu poison. At that time, I only learned about it in a hurry. In order to find out what kind of Gu poison it was, I quietly sent people out of the palace to search for wizards and wizards in the Jianghu, hoping that they could give one or two answers. The hard work paid off, and I finally found it. It was a man from the Western Regions. Witch, she taught me a simple method, which is to use the blood of the voodoo victim and the burning ambergris as an introduction, and then open a small hole in the voodoo victim, so that the voodoo insects will crawl out automatically... I will use this method in Xian I tried it on Concubine Xian, and thus saved Concubine Xian's life."

As soon as Jiang Muxue finished speaking, Su Erjiaying quickly knelt down to prove, "Everything the empress said is true, and the concubine's life was indeed saved by the empress with this simple method."

Naturally, Xia Zhenji knew about this kind of trick, but she didn't expect it to be like this.

In order to prove what she said was true, Jiang Muxue ordered Cui Changshou to go back and bring over the corpses of the starved Gu worms. Liu Jing glanced at them and almost vomited.

Suppressing the disgust, he said for a long time: "Why do you keep such an important matter from me?"

He is really angry.

Jiang Muxue knelt down and said: "The emperor is angry! The concubine did not intend to hide you all the time. Firstly, you are busy with state affairs and work hard every day. Secondly, what happened in the harem is due to the concubine's dereliction of duty. The concubine didn't want to startle the snake, so I wanted to I found a way to spread the false news that Concubine Xian was cured by my pills, hoping that the black hands behind the scenes would take action, but I didn't expect that she would not know how to restrain herself, and once again extended her black hands to Concubine Wan."

Liu Jing stared blankly at the woman in front of him, feeling that everything she said was true, but full of loopholes, but if you wanted to ask where the leak was, he couldn't tell.

At this point, Jiang Muxue stood up suddenly, and looked at Xia Zhenji with a surprised face, "Hey, I just remembered, how did Concubine Wan know this trick to lure Gu worms?"

One sentence brought all the focus to Xia Zhenji.

Liu Jing was also surprised.

In fact, this was his first reaction when he saw the wound on Xia Zhenji's arm.

Originally, he came here this morning to tell Xia Zhenji that he had already sent someone out to look for Taoist Misty, so that she could persevere, but when he came in, he was surprised to find that Xia Zhenji's complexion improved a lot, and she didn't feel hot anymore.

That appearance made him think of Concubine Xian involuntarily, and then there was a scene where Concubine Xian had a wound on her arm, and he violently pushed off Xia Zhenji's nightgown, and then he found the compatible scene, which made him confused. Much annoyed.

Ever since he learned that Concubine Xian's "disease" was cured by the empress with the pills of Taoist Misty, he always felt that it was not simple and weird.As for what it was, he knew that the queen had been concealing it, so he pretended not to know anything in order to investigate secretly.

But let's not talk about what kind of weirdness the queen and concubine Xian are doing, it's very strange that Xia Zhenji would also come up with such weirdness.

So Liu Jing pulled Xia Zhenji's nightgown and asked her why, but she faltered for a long time and refused to say, and only said that he would ask the empress to find out, and that's how the scene just now happened.

The reason why Xia Zhenji lured Jiang Muxue was that she had discussed with Ya Ge last night. The purpose was to blow up the masters behind Jiang Muxue, annihilate them in one fell swoop, and then take the opportunity to inflict Jiang Muxue with the crime of deceiving and disrupting the harem.

The only miscalculation was that the empress did not have an expert around her. Xia Zhenji thought about it, so what, she couldn't escape the crime of deception.

So, she was pleasantly surprised: "Didn't the empress tell the concubine? The moon around you, she secretly ran to tell the concubine last night that you have a local method to attract Gu insects. The concubine really can't stand that kind of trick." It was painful, so I tried it in desperation, and it turned out to be really effective. The concubine thanked the empress for her kindness, if it weren't for you, the concubine is still in pain."

After finishing speaking, she stared straight at Yueman with bright eyes, and Yueman came out tremblingly, trembling, "It was the empress who ordered her servants to come secretly and tell empress Wanbi. The empress also said... and said, if this Concubine Ciwan's illness suddenly recovered, the person behind the scenes must be anxious to show off..."

"So, you made fun of me and applauded me over and over again because of the black hand behind the scenes?" Liu Jing sneered at Jiang Muxue, and suddenly changed his face, "Queen, you are so courageous! Can you bear the crime of deceiving the emperor?"
