Aggrieved Fish Sprite

Chapter 292 People Are Often Confused

This is an absurd thing.

After "sneaking into" the palace was discovered, the other party even invited him to a remote palace for a meeting.

It sounds like the other party has to enter the palace overnight, acting like it's giving you face.

From the beginning to the end, King Ning, the real owner of the palace, did not know about it.

——Speaking out, I am afraid that everyone in the world will laugh out loud.

The joke happened so realistically that none of the people present felt it was funny.

The palace lanterns swayed, and the people from Chengjingchuan cleared the way ahead with the lanterns, they only chose places that were rarely visited by people.

According to the rules of Taijing, the palace is not allowed to have too tall trees, but it is located in the south of the Yangtze River. Unlike the Taijing Palace, there is almost no soil except the imperial garden. Most of the palace gardens here are more like Jiangnan gardens.Small buildings, pavilions, pavilions and waterside pavilions are scattered in a patchwork manner, and the corridors, rockery and flower walls block the line of sight, and only the lights can be seen from a distance, but it is hard to tell which road people are on for a while.

The servants in the palace are not allowed to move around unless they are ordered.

The only ones who can walk freely at night are the patrolling guards, but they can't get close to the pavilions and palaces where the concubines live.

However, this is in the hands of Cheng Jingchuan and the others.

Cheng Jingchuan led the way calmly, walking in various small corridors and corridors, the group of people did not intend to cover up their whereabouts, and they did not meet anyone along the way, obviously they were extremely familiar with everything in the palace.

This kind of calm conveyed their control over the Ning Palace, which made even Mo Li a little frightened.

In the past, whether it was Ningtai City or the arrogant and domineering commander of the imperial guards, it was like a rotten appearance.

Someone has maintained this surface, what is the inside like under this decay?A person like Yuan Ting who has some ability but limited vision, or Cheng Jingchuan who is calm and able to stand on his own?

Ningtai City seems to have become a huge mystery.

Bao Guanyong has not been in Ningtai City for more than ten years, the information he has is outdated, and the Ningtai City he knows is not the same.

That Mr. Qiu is probably more difficult than originally expected.

Mo Li didn't feel annoyed, it might be a good thing to meet the behind-the-scenes hands who are trying to stir up the world's situation in advance.

He is even more unafraid to meet an ambitious man in a strange place.

In addition to possessing martial arts, Mo Li also has a trump card: the gerbil ran out to explore the way.

The Ningtai Palace is more suitable for gerbils than the Taijing Palace. The building regulations are imitated, and there are garden landscapes, many flowers and trees and many shades. There is only one in every palace garden on the rockery of Taihu Lake. Go to the bottom to build a cave to walk, and build a climbing viewing pavilion above.

The disadvantage is that the height of the trees is too low, and there is a lack of precious wood species and exotic flowers and plants.

Gerbils don't care about that.

There are small springs stacked by landscaping, and there are neat grains of sand beside the pond...

Although it is far from Feiheshan, but it is considered clean, and there are no snakes, mice, ants or beasts.

The gerbil ran around, seeing farther and farther than the ink carp, and had already found two secret passages, one suspected to be the entrance of a secret passage.

There was no such thing as an ambush by the agency.

In the night, the shadows of the trees intertwine, and you can't see anything after a few steps. The range that the palace lanterns can illuminate is limited.Jiangnan gardens are separated by three or five different barriers in a very small area, and you can see more than one scene, with twists and turns-in other words, you have to walk a lot of wrong roads, and there is no shortcut to arrive in a straight line.

The gerbil squatted in the mountain-shaped depression above the pillar, looking around solemnly.

On the lower path on the left is Cheng Jingchuan and his party.

As if with a tacit understanding, the ink carp glanced over here without any trace.

"..."

The doctor is so nice.

No matter what he looked like, Meng Qi couldn't take his eyes off of his expression and gaze.

The gerbil scratched instinctively, adding a few claw marks to the Fangliang painting.

The gerbil looked at its paws in distaste, shook its fur, and suspected that the craftsmen on King Ning's side were lazy and lazy, and the painted paintings were not well maintained, and they all lost powder!

At the end of the gentle slope on the right side of the corridor is a strangely shaped octagonal pavilion with walls on three sides and a bead curtain hanging on the side facing the corridor pool.The pavilion stands on a high place, and people outside can't see clearly what's going on inside, but sitting inside can have a panoramic view of the palace garden.

What Meng Qi was concerned about was that there were people in the octagonal pavilion at the moment.

In the darkness, a group of guards with weapons on their waists stood on the stepping path, about one person every five stone steps, extending all the way to the octagonal pavilion at the top of the slope.

This team is undoubtedly the "master" of the hospitality tonight.

The gerbil jumped up to the top of the tree, looked carefully at the terrain, and found that the bottom of the pavilion was empty.

The bottom of the hillside is not a real stone cave, it has been hollowed out, there is a way to get in, and there is a flue.

Before Meng Qi could see clearly, Cheng Jingchuan had already led the ink carp around.

"Doctor Mo, please."

The gerbil stood upright, and shook its head vigorously at the ink carp behind the stone.

The ink carp paused.

Cheng Jingchuan turned his head sharply, he always had a strange feeling of being watched tonight.

No matter how shrewd he is, he still can't think of Meng Guoshi's real body.

Cheng Jingchuan habitually scanned several places that were easy to hide, and by the time he noticed the rocks near the ground, the gerbil had long since disappeared.

Seeing Mo Li inspecting the octagonal pavilion, Cheng Jingchuan smiled and said, "Doctor Mo has good eyesight. This pavilion is all made of copper, and there is a fire room below. In winter, the hot water from the big furnace can flow along the copper pipes. Enjoying the snow and viewing the scenery in the pavilion is also as warm as spring."

Now the furnace is sealed and the fire is extinguished.

There is no smell of saltpeter and sulfur, not a trap.

The gerbil hurried out from the side of the flue, its hair all turned gray.

The ink carp caught a glimpse, with a delicate expression.

Cheng Jingchuan once again felt the strange incompatibility, as if Moli could see ghosts but he couldn't, and the ghost kept talking non-stop, telling Moli many things.Otherwise, why along the way, he couldn't understand Mo Li's expression, and the hairy back?

With a smile on his face, Cheng Jingchuan asked Doctor Mo to go to Tongting from the pedal road, and he gave his subordinates a wink as soon as he turned his head.

Search!

Search every inch!There must be something following!

But the gerbil was already trotting uphill.

Mo Li didn't continue to pretend to be old and weak, and easily reached the top of the slope, and a guard immediately lifted the curtain.

The person sitting in the pavilion is a thin and thin old scholar with sharp eyes.

He was wearing a square scarf and an old gray-brown robe, and he could vaguely see the handsome outline of his youth.

Seeing Mo Li come in, he stood up slowly, cupped his hands slowly and said: "Qiu Si of Yuzhou, I have heard the name of Doctor Mo for a long time."

"Yuzhou?"

The ink carp repeated.

The scholar in front of him gave people a very subtle feeling, he was not a scholar of refined manners, nor was he an arrogant madman.He was extremely thin, to the point of being abnormally thin, his eyes and demeanor were like a fire pit dancing with red flames.

——This flame can burn everything including himself to ashes.

Mo Li had never seen such a person before, and he instinctively felt the danger, as well as an urge to run away.

It's not because of fear, but because healers who save lives don't want to deal with lunatics.

This kind of madness cannot be cured, and their madness is often manifested in dragging everyone into the abyss.

Mo Li closed his eyes, concealed his displeasure, put the rattan box on the ground, and sat on the stone bench, posing as a proud old man.

Qiu Si didn't take it seriously, sat down again and said, "It's Yuzhou. Didn't Doctor Mo meet the younger generation of my clan there? Thanks to the doctor and Meng Guoshi for taking care of the child, and also gave him a protective armor."

He didn't mention the change in Mo Li's appearance, let alone where Meng Qi was.

This made the ink carp's prepared response in vain.

"I heard..."

Qiu Si paused, then Cheng Jingchuan came in and whispered something in his ear.

Mo Li heard it very clearly, it was what he had just said about the death of Concubine Ning.

When Cheng Jingchuan recounted it verbatim, it was obvious that the person who provided the information was in the room at that time.So is it Master Mingbian, Shaojian Xu, or those two imperial physicians?Mo carp thought secretly.

"So that's how it is." Qiu Si was surprised at first, then sighed for a long time, turned to Mo Li and said with emotion, "The doctor is really a miracle doctor, if it wasn't for the doctor to discern the cause, I am afraid that no one in the palace would know about it in a few years. Why did the concubine die suddenly?"

"In a few years?"

Mo Li sneered subconsciously, he originally wanted to say that King Ning was weak and weak, if he continued to indulge in drinking and sex, he might die within two years.

In the end, Qiu Si nodded and said: "King Ning is useless, and the king of the small county should follow up the ambition of Chu. Go, and send King Ning on the road tonight."

"Yes!"

A person outside the pavilion took the order and left neatly.

Mo Li was taken aback. He originally wanted to teach King Ning a lesson, so that this guy would never be able to get close to a woman again, and even had to lie on the bed for the remaining two years of his life, but the other side's hands were stronger than him. Ruthless, it makes people wonder if Gongfei Li is a daughter from the Qiu family.

The answer is of course no, the daughter of the Qiu family has gone to the rivers and lakes to sell information, and that seems to be Qiu Si's only daughter.

Facing Mo Li's surprised gaze, Qiu Si stroked his beard, and said lightly: "The doctor doesn't know that, except for a small number of aristocratic women, the beauties in King Ning's palace are all women selected by the people to fill the court. Ning The king is obsessed with women, and loves the new and dislikes the old. Every once in a while, there will be a noble person in the palace who is favored, and he will abandon it like a shoe and never look back. When King Ning learns the truth about the murder in the palace, he may regret it, but what he regrets is He didn't care how many beauties he hadn't disliked, those who had long been forgotten."

Qiu Si picked up the plain white porcelain pot and slowly tilted the spout, and continued slowly, "Then he will restrain his behavior? No, he will ask the imperial doctor how likely it is to have such a disease, and then re-select the maiden to enter the palace, and put the special pet If a woman's time is shortened a bit, she will be replaced every ten days and a half months, and he will not look at the former concubines again, so that there will be no more deaths in the palace."

Ink Carp: "..."

Qiu Si smiled strangely: "Why, the doctor thinks I pity those girls?"

As he spoke, his smile faded, and his tone was cold and stern, "We are about to start our army, how can we allow him to add to the chaos? Is it possible to conscript men into the army while seizing wives and daughters at the same time? You can only choose one of the two, let King Ning go to his death!" "

Mo Li looked at Qiu Si holding a cup of tea, and greeted as if nothing had happened: "The doctor was surprised. I heard from the people at the Imperial Medical Office that King Ning said tonight. If Zhu Meiren can't be cured, let someone come from outside the palace." The doctor buried with his favorite concubine. However, Zhu Meiren was rescued by Dr. Mo, but Chen Concubine died again. Alas... Chen Concubine is delicate and exquisite, she is a lotus picker from the south of the Yangtze River, and she doesn't know Dr. Mo. If you let her choose, she will definitely not get close to you, it is better to let her spend all her life to please His Royal Highness Prince Ning to accompany her, and she will be happy if she thinks about it."

The gerbil in the grass opened its eyes.

Mo Li thought to himself that this is indeed a lunatic.
