The next day, Lian Chengming appeared on time in the chaotang. The bottom was full of people and was discussing something.

Seeing Lian Chengming coming out of the inner hall, he immediately stood on both sides, arched his hands and bent down to salute Lian Chengming: "see your majesty, long live your majesty!"

"Flat body." Lian Chengming's voice was a little hoarse and seemed a little low. Qin Kangan was stunned, but he still saluted quietly. After getting up from the ground, he began to play: "I inform your majesty that the Empress Dowager and Princess Hui were assassinated on this trip. According to the minister, the assassin should be handed over to Dali temple for examination and tortured, so that we can interrogate a few words."

"What Lord Qin said is very true. These outlaws have a hard mouth. If they can be handed over to Dali temple and interrogated by the Dali Temple secretary, they will get twice the result with half the effort."

Soon someone agreed, which was the norm above the hall. Even in the last imperial examination, Lian Chengming rubbed Qin Kangan's spirit, but he still failed to shake Qin Kangan's position in the court.

Sitting on the Dragon chair, Lian Chengming dodged, looked at Grandpa Xu, saw grandpa Xu nodding, then looked at Liu yuanzhan below, and asked calmly, "Grandpa, what do you think of this?"

Hearing his name, Liu yuanzhan hesitated and stood up and said: "According to Wei Chen, although the interrogation of Dali temple is strict, the assassin's case is not trivial. It's better for your majesty to interrogate the assassin personally. Moreover, these outlaws are already engaged in a life-long business, and they know very little. It's generally impossible to tell the behind the scenes envoy. In this way, if they take so much trouble to hand over to Dali temple, they may be robbed or the assassin may be killed on the way. Wei Chen feels that , it's better not to take the risk. "

This analysis was clear and correct. Even Lian Chengming couldn't say anything wrong. He smiled slightly at the corners of his mouth. Lian Chengming nodded and said, "I think what the Duke of the state said is very true. I don't know if Prince Qin and his ministers have any objection?"

"But the assassin can't be underestimated after all, your majesty..." Qin Kangan looked at Liu yuanzhan angrily, opened his mouth but couldn't refute, so he bowed down and replied: "it's good for your majesty to interrogate in person, but lest your majesty be tired..."

"It doesn't matter." Lian Chengming interrupted Qin Kangan's words, raised his hand and terminated the topic, and said, "this is settled. What else do you want to play?"

Qin kang'an looked up at lianchengming rather displeased, but he vaguely felt that there was something wrong with lianchengming today.

In the past, lianchengming was never afraid of any contact with Qin Kangan's eyes, but today's lianchengming has never looked at Qin Kangan from beginning to end.

As long as Qin Kangan's eyes look past, lianchengming must have looked away, and there must be a secret.

But Qin Kangan couldn't figure out what the secret was for a while, so he didn't speak. He quietly listened to the people around him and quietly observed lianchengming.

Sitting on the Dragon chair, Lian Chengming was stared at by Qin Kangan and sat like a needle. When several ministers finished playing, Lian Chengming got up impatiently and said, "come here today and retreat."

When several ministers saw that they had finished playing, they didn't say anything. Everything seemed so calm and normal, but only Qin Kangan knew that there was something wrong with Liancheng today.

Lian Chengming raised his feet and walked down. He was finally relieved after entering the inner hall. The secret letter tightly held in his hand had been wet with sweat. Duke Xu was relieved and said to Lian Chengming, "please come with the slave."

Nodded, Lian Chengming took a look at the place where he had just gone up, turned and followed father-in-law Xu out.

On the other side of the mountain, Liu Ruyan was in a coma at this time, and zhen'er was confused. Even if she went to the abbot, Lian Chengming alerted Lian Chengming, and Lian Chengming rushed over with the abbot.

"What's the matter?" Lian Chengming saw Liu Ruyan lying unconscious on the bed. At this time, Liu Ruyan's face was as white as snow. Seeing that Lian Chengming was nervous for a while, he hurriedly asked, and went forward to sit by Liu Ruyan's bed.

Jane's eyes were red, and she felt a great sense of fear in her heart. Her voice trembled and replied, "slave... I don't know. Just now the empress was fine, and suddenly fainted..."

Xu is thinking of hong'er. Zhen'er is in great panic when she looks at Liu Ruyan. At this time, the whole person trembles like a sieve for fear that something will happen to Liu Ruyan. Lian Chengming waved his hand and motioned zhen'er to stand aside and make way for the abbot to see.

The abbot held a string of Buddha beads in his hand. When he heard Lian Chengming's instructions, he went forward and put his hand on Liu Ruyan's wrist to test. Then he checked Liu Ruyan's injury and found that Liu Ruyan's wound was dark and purple at this time, as if the residual poison was not clear. At this time, the poison wound recurred and his body could not hold up.

He reported back to lianchengming. The abbot said the situation very clearly: "it's the residual poison that hasn't been cleared. The last time he scratched his bones and healed his wounds, he may not be so thorough. Now it seems that the residual poison in Princess Hui's body is fierce, and I'm afraid the situation is bad."

"Is there a way?" Lian Chengming frowned tightly, holding Liu Ruyan in both hands. At this time, his joints were white. "Maybe he could develop an antidote. Since it is a poison wound, the antidote can be used."

The abbot thought for a moment and said, "the antidote can be made by the poor monk, but it lacks an extremely important medicine..."

"What kind of medicine is it? I'll immediately order someone to find it for you." Lian Chengming heard that there was a way, and his eyes lit up.

But the abbot shook his head and said, "this medicine is the snake gall of the spirit python. If you want to detoxify the poison of Princess Hui, you must use this snake. The spirit Python is a very rare snake on the mountain behind our temple, and this snake is a highly poisonous snake. If you are accidentally bitten, you will worry about your life. If you want to find it, I'm afraid it's not easy."

Hearing this, Lian Chengming stood up and asked the abbot, "how long can Princess Hui last?"

"Three days at most." the abbot replied without hesitation.

"OK, just wait. I'll go back." Lian Chengming glanced at Liu Ruyan lying in bed and turned to tell zhen'er, "take care of your mother."

"Yes..." zhen'er leaned over and promised. When she got up again, she saw that Lian Chengming had gone out, leaving only a trace of her back.

At this time, Liu Ruyan still had no consciousness at all. In a trance, he seemed to be trapped in a dark place with no sky, and his whole body was dark.
