After resigning, I switched to fortune-telling

Chapter 51

Xie Shizi thought about it, and put Shang Qingyao behind him.The facts were as he expected, Xue Ciyi was indeed possessed by Gu, but few people in Yuejing knew about it, and Xie Tangru also had more theory than practice, so there was nothing he could do about Xue Ciyi who was unconscious.

If Xue Ciyi came in well and went out sideways, maybe those officials would say how he robbed the women and caused them to hang themselves to death.

Xie Shizi was quite irritable, and ordered backhandedly to bring out Shen Yu who was hiding in a small shabby house outside the city.

Shen Yu's condition is not very good either.

"Gu" are twin things, when it eats back Xue Ciyi, it also eats back another host.When he saw the wounds on Shen Yu's body that were almost the same as Xue Ciyi's, Xie Tangru was sure that they had a pair of Gu planted on them.

Shen Yu was taken to Wei Guogong's mansion half dead, and almost didn't come up, and met Lord Yan directly.

His situation was worse than Xue Ciyi's. Originally Junyi's face was covered with red blood lines that criss-crossed like spider webs. Those blood lines writhed on his face like maggots. When they crawled over, they caused dense pain, making Shen Yu The facial features are distorted, and the original shape of eyebrows and eyes can hardly be seen.

After a diagnosis and treatment by the government doctor, he confirmed that he and Xue Ciyi had the same pair of Gu, and nodded towards Xie Tangru.

The doctor walked up to Xie Tangru's side and whispered: "These two people should be a pair of mother and child Gu. The mother Gu was injured, and the child Gu was hurt by backlash. It's just that the subordinates are not skilled in medicine, so they can't judge the two people. Is it the child Gu or the mother Gu."

He nodded slightly, with a clear mind, and motioned for the government doctor to step back first.

Jianshuang stared at Shen Yu, her beautiful eyebrows showed pity: "It's so pitiful."

When she said this, her expression and tone were cold, which was extremely inconsistent with what she said.

Outrageously hypocritical.

If it wasn't for Shen Yu's lack of strength now, and the pain was so painful that he couldn't even move a finger, he would definitely yell at him.

Xie Tangru sat on the side with his hands propped up, looking down at the unconscious Xue Ciyi, and slowly frowned.Shen Yu glanced at his expression out of the corner of his eye, but he couldn't see clearly, for a moment he was a little uncertain about his thoughts.

After a stalemate for a long time, Shen Yu finally spoke after deliberation: "The prince tied Shen Jie Weimo to the house... I don't know where Shen offended the prince?"

Shen Yu was cunning, if he hadn't been capsized in the gutter this time and was bitten by a gu and couldn't escape, Xie Tangru's people might not have been able to catch him smoothly.

After being caught, Shen Yu didn't give up and stubbornly resisted, and obediently caught him without a fight.

Xie Tangru raised his eyes, and said slowly: "Speaking of which, I'm very curious about Mr. Shen's life experience. An ordinary farmer can't raise someone like Mr. Shen. I don't know if Mr. Shen is very talented, or..." He stopped right here, Leave room for infinite reverie.

Shen Yu's eyelids twitched, and he replied calmly: "The prince is absurd, Shen is just an ordinary scholar, how can he deserve such praise from the prince."

"Young Master Shen deserves it." Xie Tangru said in a calm voice, "How can an ordinary scholar who has no official position have the ability to send a secret letter directly to Datian to listen?"

"........."

Shen Yu's heart skipped a beat.

He knew that there were a lot of mistakes in this matter, and it was very likely that he would be exposed, but he didn't expect it to be so fast—but these things cannot be admitted even if killed.

"I'm dull, I don't understand the meaning of the son."

"Mr. Shen's brain is so difficult at such a young age." His slender fingers tapped on the edge of the table unhurriedly, Mr. Xie smiled half-smile, "I think it's better to get rid of this extra thing."

"The prince was joking." Shen Yu forced a stiff smile from his face, which involved his muscles, and the severe pain spread quickly, and Shen Yu grinned instantly.

Jianshuang touched the bracelet on her wrist, restraining her urge to turn this face aside.

It's... so ugly.

Xie Tangru forced a smile from his throat, he lazily rolled up his sleeves, as if impatient to continue entangled with Shen Yu like this, Shi Shiran got up and crossed the threshold.

He probably already knew what he wanted to find out, Shen Yu didn't say a single word of the truth, Xie Tangru didn't intend to waste time on Shen Yu, he was more willing to spend his time investigating by himself.

Jianshuang stared at Shen Yu, tilted her head, looked at Xie Yuan again, and asked him what to do?

Shizi didn't say anything.

Xie Yuan hugged his chest, with a stern expression, when he looked straight at it, it was as if a knife had cut his skin, so sharp that people dare not look directly at it.

"The prince didn't say what to do—then find a place to lock it up first."

Shen Yu couldn't help shaking in his tone, and subconsciously yelled: "It's against the law to use lynching."

Jianshuang turned her eyes away in disgust: "Gag his mouth."

Shen Yu: "..."

He was carried out of the house, and when no one was paying attention, Shen Yu took the opportunity to look back, behind the deep gauze tent, there could be faint figures among the layers of soft mattresses.

Xue Ciyi's breathing was steady, and her long crow feather hair spread out on the pillow, like a dying spirit.

He sighed silently in his heart.

This is going to be a big trouble!

.........

Standing at the bottom of the steps in the hall, the imperial physician ordered to report to the emperor verbatim about the situation of taking the pulse of Duke Wei in Duke Wei's mansion today.

"There is no erysipelas in Duke Wei's body. I have seen the pills refined by Taoist priests in Duke Wei's residence today. Most of them are balls made from herbs. Although there is no great benefit, there is no harm."

"How is Wei Guogong?" Shang Qingyao continued to revise the memorial without raising his head, and the imperial physician couldn't figure out whether the emperor cared or didn't care at all.

The Imperial Physician Order could only speak carefully based on his many years of experience in serving the late Emperor: "Wei Guogong is still in good health, but for some reason, there seems to be a poison in his body, which affects his internal organs. If this poison is not removed, I am afraid he will die again." In three to five years, Duke Wei will be exhausted and die."

The memorial was closed with a "snap", and Shang Qingyao's face was slightly cold.

"Are you sure you can cure Wei Guogong?"

"This..." the imperial physician ordered his hands to be handed over, "This minister can't guarantee it. The poison in Wei Guogong's body is severe. If Wei Guogong was not strong and healthy, he might have been hollowed out by the poison. To detoxify Wei Guogong, but I am willing to try my best."

"Okay." Shang Qingyao said calmly, "Wei Guogong is the pillar of my imperial court, and the imperial hospital must do his best to treat Wei Guogong."

"Your Majesty knows." The Imperial Physician Ling said with a slight hesitation on his face, "There is one more thing, I don't know if I should tell His Majesty—"

"Say."

"The poison that Wei Guogong used is one of the secret medicines of the palace. However, the recipe for making this poison has been lost many years ago, so there is no finished product in the palace..." The imperial physician Ling raised his head cautiously while talking, only to find that Shang Qingyao had stopped writing at some point, and looked at him gravely.

The Imperial Physician Order hastily lowered his head: "...if we can find the prescription, I will be [-]% more sure of detoxifying Duke Wei."

"At that time, I will ask the servants to go to various palaces to find out the whereabouts of the prescription."

Shang Qingyao's expression was indifferent, as if the news brought to him by the imperial doctor's order did not arouse any disturbance in his heart.

The Imperial Physician was not sure about his attitude.

——Does he hope that Wei Guogong can live a few more years, or is he like the first emperor, looking forward to Wei Guogong's early death?

The people around the emperor are not so easy to do.The Imperial Physician Ling stroked his beard worriedly, and bumped into Song Xuan who came into the palace when he left.

Master Song has learned his lesson this time, whenever he goes out, the embroidered envoys will hug him and surround him in a circle, so that there is no possibility of him being "coveted".

Finally, there is some ostentation of the emperor's important ministers.

The servant Shang Qingyao took the paper drawn with a Chinese ink brush from the table and handed it to Song Xuan.

Shang Qingyao: "Look at these official positions?"

Song Xuan didn't dare to slack off, staring at the above several official positions carefully for a while, he couldn't help but be a little surprised: "These are all good jobs that everyone in the imperial court desperately wants! If it weren't for the fact that I already have positions in my body now , I can’t wait to go to these positions.”

Although the people in these positions do not have a strong sense of presence, they are one of the indispensable conditions for the smooth operation of the huge court machinery. Not only do they have good career prospects, but they also have a lot of power in their hands.

If it goes well, it will be easy to get in and out in the future.

I don't know why His Majesty picked out these positions on a whim.

Song Xuan's thoughts moved slightly: "Your Majesty has prepared so meticulously, I don't know which hidden and famous person is going to invite out of the mountain to serve the court?"

He was half joking and half probing.

"It's not considered a celebrity, but he is indeed a reclusive person." Shang Qingyao didn't know what to think of, and he couldn't help but smile.

Hidden away in the city.

He is also a hidden person.

"He said that non-senior officials would not do it, but these positions barely meet his requirements."
