The Path of the Pharmacist's Favorite Concubine

Chapter 172 Inquiry
Li Chengze supported Huilan to sit on the imperial concubine's couch, "Are you tired? Does your head still hurt? Go to sleep for a while. It hurt twice in a row for half a month. It took me a long time to get better. This time it was all for nothing. , If I had known earlier, I would not have brought you out, hey!"

He knelt down and carefully took off the embroidered shoes for her, sighing all the time.

"Fool, it's a good thing I'm here, otherwise they might not be able to stop the men in black from yesterday. That's the worst situation. Don't be stupid, I'm fine, and I'll get better slowly."

Huilan smiled, although it hurt twice, it was not too serious, it was much better than when she first entered the palace.Does not affect the overall situation.

"I'm afraid that you will have a repetition. Suffering a second offense is not as simple as recuperating. You know better than me. Be careful, and don't use ice needles in the future."

"I see."

"Well, you sleep for a while, I'll go and see if the survivor is awake, and I'll tell you the situation when I come back."

Li Chengze covered her with a quilt, comforted her to sleep for a while, and let her rest for a while since she almost didn't sleep all night.

"Okay, let them not be in a hurry to use torture. I'll take a look when I wake up. It seems that it's not as simple as being poisoned. Don't kill me."

"it is good."

Huilan was a little tired, so she had to rest for a while to recharge her mind.

Li Chengze went to look for Li Tong, intending to buy time to find out what happened first, even if he could find some clues. When his father finds out, he might not be willing to uphold justice for him. They are both sons, so why not kill him?

Huilan woke up after sleeping with the Soul-Cultivating Wood for more than an hour. Ding Xiang kept guarding her and helped her up when she woke up.

"Master, you are awake, and this servant will pour you a glass of water."

"Okay, where is Your Highness? You haven't come back yet."

"I was busy and didn't come back. Are you hungry? There is porridge stewed in the kitchen. Let me bring you some porridge for your stomach?"

"Well, bring some."

"it is good."

In order to curry favor with the crown prince, the kitchen used the best pearl rice to make porridge. This kind of rice is rarely produced, and without other ingredients, there is a strong rice fragrance that tantalizes the taste buds.

"Well, it smells so good, save some for Your Highness."

"Don't worry, there are a lot of good things."

"Have you recorded it?"

"It's all recorded, and the same is true. There are two copies and one copy for each of Sun Bin's brothers. There is no mistake."

Lilac became more sophisticated.

"Well done, we went shopping yesterday. I bought some messy things. You have to tidy them up later. When you get back to the palace, you can give them to the servants of Qinghui Garden. Anyway, you are also a big palace lady. You should go out for a while. Bring some presents back to the big guys."

"Thank you master for still thinking about your slave."

Ding Xiang giggled.

After eating the porridge and side dishes, Huilan felt much more comfortable, and her head ached after a night of sleep. She contributed a lot to saving the prince yesterday, and she also received some merits, so that the spirit can be further restored and relieved.

"Where are they?"

"In the dungeon in the front yard, the post station often has yamen guards who escort the prisoners passing by, so there is a dungeon."

"Okay, serve the food, I'll go and have a look."

"Yes, slaves will prepare now."

Ding Xiang doesn't ask why, this is what Hui Lan likes the most.

Ding Xiang personally carried the food, followed Huilan to the front yard, entered the courtyard gate, handed the food to the guard at the gate, turned and left.

When Huilan entered the dungeon, she saw Li Chengze sitting there interrogating the prisoner. The only survivor was lying on the ground, bound and unable to move his limbs. He was seriously injured and would not recover for a while.

"Why are you here, it's dirty here."

Seeing her running in, Li Chengze stood up and gave her his seat. Li Tong hurriedly moved another stool and wiped it clean to make way for her.

"I thought you hadn't eaten all night, so I brought you some porridge and side dishes. Let's eat first, don't let it get cold."

Li Chengze nodded and smiled at Li Tong, "That's fine, let's eat first. When you're full, go back and rest for a while, and change shifts."

"Okay, let's have something to eat, brothers."

Huilan also took a bowl and filled a bowl of hot porridge for Li Chengze, along with some side dishes and small flower rolls.

Li Chengze said while eating, "The injury was too serious, and he passed out without asking twice."

"Let me see."

Huilan threw silk around the man in black's wrist to check his pulse, mainly because she disliked him for being dirty and didn't want to touch him.

"Oh, it turned out to be a heart-eating Gu. No wonder you couldn't find out. You have to get rid of the Gu worm in your body first. Otherwise, when the other party finds out that he is still alive, his life may be at the end of his life."

"There are really Gu worms, let me guess."

Li Tong came over with his job bowl in hand.

"Well, it's a very powerful heart-eating Gu. They can only passively wait for death. The heart-eating Gu is very difficult to solve. If they are not careful, they will directly bite off the heart vein and die."

"Then can you solve it? Will it be very hard?"

Li Chengze stopped his chopsticks and asked, his brows furrowed.

"It's okay. It's very simple for me. It's not hard. It's different from Tongmai. I don't need to work so hard to control the strength. Cao Heng, go tell Ding Xiang and bring me my medicine box."

"Yes, I'll go right now."

Cao Heng put down the bowl and ran out.

After a while, Huilan returned with the medicine box, and Huilan took out a bottle of medicine and golden needles from the medicine box.

Pour the potion into the bowl, then drip a drop of his own blood, and cut the wrist of the man in black.

"What's the meaning of letting blood in?"

Cao Heng looked very surprised and couldn't help asking.

"Heart-eating Gu is a mother-child Gu, and the blood of a woman is the most attractive to it. I added a potion to it, and the temptation is doubled, so that it can lure the Heart-eating Gu to crawl out and eat."

"Oh, Madam Gaoming."

This potion is the potion of Yangyuanhua, which is very attractive to Gu insects, and contains gentle and pure aura, Gu insects also like this kind of food very much.

If there is no one, it needs the heart and soul of the mother Gu to attract the child Gu, which requires certain conditions, what if the person cannot be caught.

Sure enough, after a while, the man in black started to struggle. He saw a bulge in the heart meridian, and the skin kept moving under the skin. He followed the meridian to the wrist, crawled out, and ran into the bowl.

Huilan quickly took a bowl and put it upside down, locking the Gu worms inside.

The man in black wakes up, the heart-biting Gu usually lives in the atrium, so it is difficult to get rid of, most of the Gu insects live in the atrium.

"This is the end?"

"Yes, just come out. This potion is very precious, and most people can't make it. Gu worms especially like to eat this potion, and adding a little blood to stimulate them can attract them."

Huilan explained with a smile.

"Is it easy or difficult?"

Cao Heng laughed twice, of course they understand that they look simple, but you may not be able to do well.

"Wake up, your Gu worm has been cured, but if you don't say something, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to pass the level."

"It's okay if you don't say anything, you can be a medicine man for me, I guarantee that you will not die, and your martial arts are better than all of them, okay?"

Huilan approached him and asked, her face full of interest, as if I was very interested in you.

Li Tong immediately took a step back without hesitation and hid far away. The memory of the last drug testing experience was still fresh, and he felt pain all over his body when he thought about it.

Even though he got the greatest benefits, he still endured the pain solidly.

The man in black said nothing discreetly.

Huilan found a bamboo tube, put some medicine in it, then opened the bowl, the Gu worm obediently crawled into the bamboo tube, she closed the lid and put the bamboo tube into the medicine box.

"How about it, think about it, you can save your life if you say it, now that the Gu worm has untied you, to a certain extent, you are free."

"It's not that easy. It's not just this one. I have a brother who is my own brother. I really don't know too much. We just take the task and don't care about the rest. After completing this task, my brother can get Unlock the chance of Gu worms and become the second master."
