Chapter 246 Identifying the Dry Bone Orchid

I really want to make the prince law.Mr. Cai, who was in charge, didn't think of this. He just wanted to get the evidence, but he completely forgot about the dignity of the royal family.

Awakened by Ji Li's few words, Master Cai broke out in a cold sweat, "No wonder the prince brought so many singers when he came, it turned out to be... Thank you for saving my life..."

It's natural to be afraid, if Ji Li hadn't stretched out his hand for such a hand, I'm afraid Mr. Cai would have fallen hard into the mud.

Ji Li yawned, and signaled Mr. Cai not to continue, "Okay, I'm going back to the mansion first, remember if there is any movement, please report to me first."

Ji Li completely drew Mr. Cai over here, first let Zhuifeng beat and beat Mr. Cai, and then he clearly knew that going to the Prince's Mansion was a trap this time, but he still didn't stop him. He stretched out his hand to save Mr. Cai. Give him a slap and reward him with a sweet date. In this way, the old and cunning Mr. Cai can concentrate on doing things for him.

Ji Wangfu.

"Go and invite Dr. Gu." Ji Li said to Zhui Feng as soon as he stepped into the door of the palace.

Zhuifeng was startled, and then said to Jili: "Doctor Gu...Doctor Gu is talking to Madam..."

Ji Li took a deep look at Zhui Feng, and then went to the backyard without stopping.

The Qionghua in the courtyard is in full bloom, graceful and graceful, a piece of pure and elegant.

Under the flower tree, beside the stone table, Lian Qingcheng and Gu Hanxun sat facing each other. There seemed to be a pot of tea warming on the table. From a long distance, Ji Li could smell the clear fragrance of tea.

"My lord," Gu Hanxun, who was sitting facing him, saw Ji Li first, and seemed a little embarrassed. He stood up, and the petals on his shoulders fell in response.

Lian Qingcheng also turned around, smiled lightly, "I'm back."

"Well," Ji Li responded, and walked quickly to Lian Qingcheng's side, "Ma'am is not feeling well, why do you always want to run outside?"

"I have nothing to do, so I invite Han Xun to talk about the old days, that's all right." Lian Qingcheng moved his body aside so that Ji Li could sit down, "Let's talk about the Prince's Mansion first."

Ji Li sat down.Turning around, seeing three teacups on the table, he knew that Lian Qingcheng was still thinking about him, and his mood improved immediately, and he said politely to Gu Hanxun: "Sit down first, and talk slowly."

After Gu Hanxun sat down according to his words, Ji Li said: "This time I went to the Prince's Mansion and checked the roster of the Prince's Mansion. The number of people in the mansion is the same as the number on the roster."

Gu Hanxun lowered his head and held the teacup, and raised his head suddenly after hearing Ji Li's words, feeling a little agitated, and even splashed the tea he was holding, "How is it possible? Could it be that those people have all returned from the dead? ?!"

It's no wonder that Gu Hanxun was agitated, after all, there is a high possibility that the Prince's Mansion is hiding people from the Gate of Rebirth, and the enmity between Gate of Rebirth and Gu Hanxun is truly endless.

Ji Li raised his eyebrows slightly, "Listen to me first, the number of people in the prince's mansion is indeed the same, but this king has seen a strange thing."

Speaking of this, Ji Li deliberately paused, causing Gu Hanxun to look at him eagerly with only a pair of eyes.

Seeing this, Lian Qingcheng smiled and filled up the tea for Ji Li, "Don't be tricky, just say it."

"Although Baililang hid some people in the deepest part, this king still found out that among the servants, many of them have hands as thin as creamy fat, which is not what a servant should have." Ji Li said .

Lian Qingcheng lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then said: "Do you suspect that the crown prince will find someone to replace those missing people?"

"Looking for someone?" Ji Li smiled and nodded Lian Qingcheng's head, "If you want to find so many servants in such a short period of time, how can Qianji Pavilion not receive any news, unless those people already exist."

"It was there?" Lian Qingcheng was puzzled, and after a while, he finally came to his senses, "You mean those who replaced them are all from the Gate of Rebirth?!"

"I'm not sure if it's my husband, so I have to ask Gu Hanxun." Ji Li said, looking at Gu Hanxun.

Since he could help, Gu Hanxun was of course very happy, and immediately said loudly, "Excuse me."

"You have spent some time with Mei Niang from the Gate of Rebirth, but have you observed her carefully?" Ji Li asked.

Gu Hanxun nodded, "Well, but it was only when I was in the pharmacy. Meiniang's talent in refining medicine is not inferior to mine, so I paid attention to it."

"Then can you notice how she is different from ordinary people?"

"The difference..." Gu Hanxun murmured, and after contemplating for a long time, he suddenly seemed to think of something and said: "By the way, hands, Meiniang's fingers are slightly pink, I asked her before Knowing that it is the poison refined by the past master to control them, all the poisoned people have red fingers, and they need to take antidote every month, otherwise the pink finger will spread to the whole body and die, which is called peach blossom clothing."

Ji Li's thin lips finally pursed into a light smile, and after a while, Gu Hanxun heard him say: "If so, then there is absolutely no mistake."

After a pause, Ji Li stretched out his hand, squeezed out a small wild bamboo flower from his sleeve, and asked, "Do you know this thing?"

Gu Hanxun frowned slightly, took the small flower from Ji Li's hand, first put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it gently, then tore off a petal, crushed it, and put some on the tip of his tongue.

After a while, his expression changed drastically, and he immediately threw the little flower in his hand aside, "Where did you get this?"

"Prince's Mansion," Ji Li took a sip of the cold tea, "In the dark place in the northwest corner of the Prince's Mansion, there is a small soil slope with this kind of small flowers growing on it. It was too weird, and besides, there was a faint rotten smell all around, so the dark guard quietly picked one and brought it back."

As Ji Li said, his eyes glanced at the weak white flower that was thrown aside.

"That's right." The disgust in Gu Hanxun's eyes was evident, "This kind of flower is called withered bone orchid. It grows on...on carrion. When the flowers bloom, the carrion is gone and only the bones are left. The name is dry bone orchid, a list of floral fragrances, hallucinogenic."

Ji Li was a little surprised and asked what it was.

After exhaling lightly, Gu Hanxun continued: "The dry bone orchid has a light fragrance, but this one has a faint rancid smell, and the color of the flower is reddish... I'm afraid... I'm afraid the carrion that grows flowers is not an ordinary thing."

Ji Li's hands trembling while holding the tea, he pinched the petals that fell on the table and slowly rubbed them in his hands, lost in thought, he thought of some things, these things made him feel uneasy.

So even for several days, they were spent in a state of absent-mindedness. Lian Qingcheng asked several times, but was prevaricated each time.

A few days later, torrential rain came.

Lian Qingcheng leaned on the large chair, quietly watching the rain hitting the plantains outside the door, the sound of which was in his ears.

Ji Li walked in with an umbrella, shook off the rain on his body, smiled at Lian Qingcheng and said, "Ma'am, the time has come."
