Naruto Six Paths Iruka

Chapter 315 26. Poisoning
Mao Sui repeatedly nodded in agreement, but after he returned, he did not give any new orders.It's useless to order it. He and the rest of his subordinates don't even know where the teams they sent out are.

After finishing his day's work, Gong Zi stood up and stretched himself, ready to go back to the bedroom to rest.

He can also be regarded as a person with low grades among the princes-only a little better than Suqin and Daizi.However, because he was originally taciturn, no one resented him, and the emperor was usually polite to him.

He was a concubine since he was a child, and he never thought that he would be in charge of a country one day.In addition, at that time, the territory of the country of the motherland was very small, and there was nothing that could be his turn.Therefore, whether he was studying or being a prefect, he didn't work hard.He agreed to whatever the magistrate said; when the enemy came, he ran with the others.

Later, the emperor escaped from the tripod country and competed with the son for the position of the crown prince, but he was also indifferent.Anyway, as long as he behaves honestly, whoever gets to the position in the end will not kill his incompetent brother.As a result, when the emperor seized the world and divided the princes, he became stupid.The incompetence he usually shows is not pretending, it is real.

Of course, he couldn't refuse the seat of the land country daimyo.Otherwise, what would Daizi do?Should he also refuse?Accept it, can you do it yourself?This is also a problem.In the end, he went to ask his father Yiren, who told him, don't think too much, just do more, it doesn't matter if you mess up, the emperor is your brother.

Yes, this sentence is enough.The Emperor is my younger brother, so what else is there to say?Take it, anyway, the courtiers under him also have ready-made ones.It's easy to appease the few cities in the territory. What you did in the past can be done now, and your subordinates can handle it without using your own brains.It's just that tasks such as the new unification of weights and measures and the expansion of territory can only be done while pondering.

After all, the talent is not enough, so try to make it up.After working twice as long as before, he was finally able to roughly complete some guaranteed tasks.Although compared with Sun Bing and others, it is still not enough to look at, but at least it is up to the standard.

Other princes would often see Uncle Yile emerge from the hall to convey some temporary orders.Except for the princes' meeting every few years, he hardly sees this person.

But today, when he stepped out of the hall, the air in the hall fluctuated.That's right, it's that unfamiliar feeling.

A vortex split open in the space, an oval black hole grew bigger and bigger, and finally a head popped out.

"Master Gongzi." Uncle Yile called to stop him.

Gong Zi was stunned for a moment, this is not the time for the meeting of princes.

Uncle Yile went on to say: "The emperor said that a daimyo has been attacked by strange people recently, so everyone of you should be careful, and it is best to strengthen the vigilance around you."

Has a big name been attacked?Who is so bold to attack the daimyo?But Gongzi is most concerned about: "Who was attacked?"

"I'll notify you later," said Uncle Yile. "We'll make an announcement after we investigate the situation. In short, just be careful."

"Okay, thank you then." After Gongzi finished speaking, Uncle Yile disappeared in mid-air.

Gong Zi continued to take half of his feet and walked towards the outside of the hall.He passed the kitchen, and the chef came out: "My lord, what do you want to eat tonight?"

"It's still the same as yesterday." Gongzi is not picky. Since he ate meat porridge last week, he felt that this kind of thing was the best for dinner, so he ate it for more than a week.

"Come on," the chef walked in and yelled loudly, "It's still meat porridge today!"

They didn't notice that there was a person hiding on the big tree by the courtyard wall.

The man waited until they had each entered the house and the guards patrolling around had left before jumping off the tree.The clothes on his body were specially made, dyed dark green and light green crossed colors to hide.After jumping down, he quickly tore off the clothes, stuffed them into his bag, and swaggered away like a passerby.

In the dead of night, three black shadows appeared here again.With a light leap, they jumped onto the courtyard wall, and then slid down the big tree.The three came to the kitchen door one by one, fiddled with the door lock casually, and opened it.The door was gently pushed open a crack, and then two shadows slipped in.The third person quickly hid behind the tree, alerting the surroundings.

The two men who went in came to a well in the kitchen, and pulling a rope with their bare hands, lifted a large piece of dripping pork from the well.They wiped the water off the pork, then took a small packet from their clothes.

One pours some powder from a bag into the palm of one's hand and rubs it on the pork.After wiping, squeeze it to make sure the medicine penetrates.After everything was done, they quietly put the pork back into the well water.

They got out of the kitchen, put the lock back on, found the third man, and climbed out together along the tree.

"Tianzi, Gongzi has had diarrhea for three consecutive days."

Uncle Yile emerged from the space vortex and reported to the emperor.

"Huh? Did he eat something bad?" the emperor asked.

Uncle Yile: "His guard said he didn't know, except for him, everyone else was fine."

"Oh, it's a pity that I don't know if ordinary people can pass through that vortex, otherwise, I'll send the doctor here to take a look." The emperor said, "How bad is he?"

Uncle Yile: "It is said that the whole person is exhausted, except for diarrhea, he can't get out of bed at all."

Son of Heaven: "Tell him not to eat heavy oil and meat, and eat lightly these few days."

Uncle Yile: "He said he ate very lightly, eating meat porridge at night for more than a week."

"Is this person stupid? He has diarrhea and eats meat. Tell him, give me porridge these days." The emperor patted the table speechlessly.

Uncle Yile poked his head over again, explained a few words to that side, and then closed the space vortex.

"Eating meat porridge for more than a week," the emperor pondered, "this guy won't get tired of it."

Uncle Yile suddenly remembered something: "Then what, tell me, could it be that someone poisoned you?"

"Poisoning?" Hearing what he said, the emperor became vigilant again, "It's really possible. However, there have been assassins who have done this before, but it didn't work. The hit rate of poisoning is extremely low, it's hard for you to know What will your goal be to eat today."

After he finished speaking, he remembered that Uncle Yile said just now that Gongzi had eaten meat porridge for more than a week: "Oh, he is not!"

Uncle Yile nodded: "Well, I'm an assassin, and I also know what Gongzi will eat tomorrow."

The emperor thought for a while, picked up a pen and wrote an order: "From now on, all daimyos must ask the kitchen to prepare ten different dishes for each meal. When eating, no second person is allowed to watch. After eating , no matter how much is left, it will all be mixed together and thrown away.”

He looked at it and thought that this anti-poisoning method was quite good.
