As she expected, the letter had nothing to do with the tribute.

Yingrou mentioned a very bizarre thing in the letter.It is said that Cen Zhu was once bewitched with "Blood Passion Gu" in Lanque Country. This kind of "Blood Passion Gu" is a kind of taboo in Lanque Country. People develop strong emotions.Although this "feeling" is fake, but? People who are infected with Gu can't tell the difference and will mistakenly believe it is real.It has a fatal flaw, which is also the reason why it is taboo. It needs to continuously consume the blood energy in the voodoo person to maintain this "love|love" package, and the final result can only deplete the voodoo person's blood energy. Do, "love" also? Die.

Because this kind of blood gu has no other symptoms, it is generally difficult to be discovered.The only obvious sign is that people infected with "Blood Passion Gu" will have two red dots on the back of the neck. At first, they are not much bigger than the eye of a needle, but as the poison intensifies, the eye of the needle will gradually expand.This is because people who play Gu usually use snakes to raise Gu, and then put the snake on the back of the neck to bite the person while the person is asleep.Snake Fang injects blood Gu into the human body, and this "blood passion Gu" is planted.

And when the Gu poison is irreversible, the eye of the needle will disappear completely, which means that the person who has been infected by the Gu is beyond salvation.It was by chance that Ying Rou caught a painter who was "following" Cen Zhuo, and saw two small red dots on the back of Cen Zhuo's neck in his painting, and became suspicious.In addition, Cen Zhuo frequently mentioned the name of a person who was not in close contact with him at that time, which aroused Yingrou's vigilance.She searched quietly, and sure enough, she found those two red dots on Cen Zhu's neck. At that time, the red dots had doubled in size from the painting.She asked the Great Elder to help confirm that it was indeed the "Blood Passion Gu" that worried her.

Of course Ying Rou was very shocked and angry. Generally, people who play this kind of Gu are crazy people who love but don't get it, but this kind of madness is obviously beyond the range that normal people can accept.Ordinary people are obsessed with love, at most they don’t want to hurt themselves, but those who play voodoo, in order to satisfy their personal desires, would rather push the one they love to the end of the world.

Didn't she? Tell Cen Zhu about this, because people who have been infected with the "blood passion gu" cannot get rid of this kind of gu, and will resist after knowing the truth, and the more they resist, the more they will be " Blood passion Gu" backlash.It's a good thing that Cen Zhu hadn't been afflicted by the Gu at the time, and it wasn't out of control.Ying Roumi ordered the Great Elder to dissolve most of the Gu poison in her body, and the remaining part of the "death Gu shell" still remained in the body and would be slowly excreted over time.But don't worry.

She also has caught the person who played Gu? He has already dealt with it secretly.But? Because this person has a close relationship with the leader of a place in Lan Que, and is one of the leader's secret lovers.That leader has quite a lot of influence in Lan Que and is related to many forces.She was worried that Cen Zhuo would be retaliated by the leader if he stayed in Lan Que, so she had to let her leave Lan Que as soon as possible.I also hope that Li Jingzhu can restrain Cen Zhu, or let her come to Lan Que.At least, before she wipes out those forces completely, don't? Set foot on Lan Que's land, it's safe.

After reading the letter, Li Jingchen couldn't let go of it for a long time.

Cen Zhu couldn't help being curious, and asked, "What did she say in the letter?"

Li Jingchen gave her a strange look, reread the letter, made sure that there was nothing missing, folded it, and stuffed it back into the envelope.

He took a deep breath, "It's nothing, it's best not to go to such a ghostly place as Lanque in the future."

Cen Zhu didn't quite understand, didn't she? But she didn't intend to go back in the first place, and she didn't have anything to say at the moment.

Li Jingchen looked at her full of anger, it didn't look like she had been poisoned at all.She also thought of what was said in the letter, although most of the Gu worms were melted away, there was still a part of the "death Gu shell" remaining in her body, she didn't know how much this part was?Will it? Will there be a sudden resurgence one day?The words "No? Don't worry about it" can't make her completely at ease.Just thinking of someone trying to confuse her mind with such ghostly tricks, Li Jingchen's teeth itch with hatred.I regret letting the eldest princess retreat so early, the best policy is to kill the grass and roots.

Moreover, the mechanism of this "Blood Passion Gu" is too venomous, the words "the more you resist, the more you will retaliate" buzzed around her head like a curse.She was so angry that her stomach hurt, and she couldn't say anything, for fear that Cen Zhu would really resist if she found out.

Who would have thought that just letting her go for a while would almost become someone else's food.If Zhang Muwei didn't draw these two dots, if Yingrou found out a little later, wouldn't she have found it? It's a "changed" Cen Zhu, there is really no place to cry.

Cen Zhu saw that her face was a little weird, didn't he? Dare to speak up, for fear of saying the wrong thing?

Suddenly, Li Jingchen waved to her, "Come here, turn your back."

Cen Zhu let out an "oh", crawled over, turned his back to her and knelt down, with his back straight.

Li Jingchen held the lamp, took two steps on his knees, and came directly behind her.With her knees propped up on the bed board and her hands pressed against the back of her head, she slowly moved forward and looked carefully.

Cen Zhu's face was almost at the same level as the bed, and the shadow in front of him dangled with the movement of the lampshade, big and small, left and right, didn't he? He knew what Li Jingzhu was looking at.Suddenly a cold hand touched the back of her neck. It was really cold. Cen Zhu felt as if he had been scalded. With a "hiss", he straightened his neck instinctively, "Why is your hand so cold? Hold it out and I'll give it to you." warm."

Li Jingchen didn't pay attention to her, but he didn't touch her again, "Don't move, sit still."

"What the hell are you looking at?" This bending of the neck was really uncomfortable, and her double chin was squeezed out.

Li Jingchen sure? He didn't find the two little red dots, so he let her go.I sat on the bed and thought about it, then got out of bed to find the big box for the paintings, took out the remaining bamboo tubes one by one, and piled them up on the bed.Cen Zhu guessed that she had emptied the box this time, and counted in surprise. Counting the two she took out earlier, there were a total of eight bamboo tubes.

What is the concept of eight?

Before Zhang Muwei closed his pens, his output was almost one painting per year. After twenty or ten years of accumulation, there are only eighteen paintings handed down from generation to generation.These eight... oh no, including my own, it should be nine, and these nine paintings have already accounted for half of his total production in the first half of his life.

Could it be that he painted all of this? Cen Zhu is a little unbelievable.

"Hold the lamp for me!"

"Oh." Cen Zhu carefully "served" the Empress Dowager.Seeing that she opened the painting tubes one by one, she suddenly found that there were numbers on the lids of these painting tubes, "one, two?, three, four... eight" engraved with a knife, Cen Zhu suddenly remembered the " ×", I always thought it was a "cross", shouldn't it be a "ten"?Are they connected together?

Eh?No? Yes, if it is "ten", then there should be another "nine", but this pile of sequence teeth ends at "eight", and there is no "nine" in it, maybe it was lost ?

The crown princess looked back from "eight" until she saw "five".The speed at which she looked at the painting was dizzying. Both "seven" and "five" were unfolded and quickly glanced at them. She didn't even unfold "six", and when she saw the front face, she rolled it back.Later, I used the first "eight" to study it over and over again, as if to find a treasure map from it.

Cen Zhu was very surprised. As she expected, these paintings were connected together, and the protagonists in the paintings were all herself without exception.Some scenes she still remembers, some scenes she has no memory at all, but she dresses exactly as she remembers.

And these scenes, if she remembers correctly? They all happened in the territory of Lan Que.In other words, Zhang Muwei also traveled a long distance with her to Lan Que.

She just said, how could there be such a good thing in the world? Such a good thing, a famous painter would be interested in a small person who appeared in the mountains, and even gave him his pioneering work after unblocking for free.

It turns out that there is an "employer" behind it.

This "employer" really has the ability to make a painter who has closed his pen come back out of the rivers and lakes and act as his eyes and ears.A word suddenly popped up in Cen Zhu's mind - "God has eyes".

God really has eyes, and will spy on you from afar.Fortunately, she has always kept herself clean, strong and unyielding. Otherwise, if she fell into the painting, she would not be able to wash it away even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

She looked at Li Jingzhu with complicated emotions.

"Lamp!" The Crown Princess didn't like it? Man she pulled the lamp away.

Cen Zhu hurriedly brought back the wandering lamp. Li Jingzhu looked at the neck of the person in the painting again and again. He seemed to see a small black spot on the back of her neck. When he took a closer look, it seemed that it was not.

She reluctantly gave up and picked up the scroll.I thought to myself, it seems that I can only see it from the ninth painting that was taken away.

The ninth painting... From this point of view, it is indeed in the hands of Lan Yingrou.

It turned out that "Aren't you going to meet again in this life" meant this, and I almost believed her as a ghost.

Later, in order to get the ninth painting back, the empresses of the two countries argued for several years on various diplomatic issues.It became a knot in the heart of the crown princess.

Of course, Cen Zhu didn't know it from the beginning to the end, she only felt that since the time when she delivered the letter for Ying Rou, the two women were... fascinated, very fascinated, very fascinated.Does she think it's just for a little tribute? As for, it's really hurtful, really, if she is still as rich as before, she really wants to pay the tribute every year for Yingrou.

Li Jingchen put away all the paint tubes, even Cen Zhuo's "ten" was naturally put away by her, and put them all back into the box.Cen Zhu said "Hey" twice, wondering if she's too bad? What's wrong with her? I have to tell myself.But it didn't work, the box was locked mercilessly in front of her with a "click".

Cen Zhu was extremely depressed, so he threw off the quilt depressedly, and fell asleep.

When the crown princess came back, she turned off the lamp, put it back on the table, tucked it into the quilt she had made in the dark, and pressed it against her back to keep warm. Cen Zhu felt her cold hand rubbing against her waist secretly. I put it up and down, but I don't dare to paste it all.Rolling his eyes, he pulled his hand into the creaking hole and clamped it, and continued to turn his back to get angry.No? But she really underestimated how thick-skinned the empress dowager was. As soon as the hand warmed up in the creaking nest, she began to secretly poke and prod at where it shouldn't be.

Cen Zhu didn't? He patted her politely, but he didn't take it off. He turned around angrily, and it hit her right."嗤嗤嗤嗤" laughter came from the darkness, who knows? Can't you see her face? Cen Zhu said angrily, "You should be a mouse, right? Squeaking all day? "

The queen mother pinched her when she heard the words, "I will ignore you if you talk nonsense again."

"Hey, who is it? Who should you care about?"

"Hey, I'm going to bed, I'm so tired."

Cen Zhu struggled from his hands and feet bound like an octopus, "I'm really tired, okay, really."

Early the next morning, Cen Zhu was woken up by a sudden shaking, "Oh my god" and pouted.Li Jingchen heard the movement and came in and asked, "What's the matter with you?"

Cen Zhu rubbed his eyes, looked around sleepily, and said aggrievedly,

"I forgot we were on a boat."

Li Jingchen gave a "sigh" smile, twisted her fair face, "The boat has already sailed, hurry up and wash up, and have breakfast with me."

"Oh."

When she came out, the Empress Dowager had already sat down at the table, and the food and snacks had also been set.

"Where are we going?"

"The capital." The crown princess simply replied two words, and handed her a piece of delicious purple rice cake that she had tasted just now, and Cen Zhu took it and took a bite, "Mmm, it's delicious. "

Li Jingchen hooked the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, and calmly picked up the tea and drank it.

"Hey, let me ask you something."

"Speak." Li Jingchen focused on drinking water without taking his eyes off the teacup.

"I seem to have heard someone say last night that they came here to pick me up from the river, isn't it true?"

"Cough! You are beautiful." Li Jingchen choked, put his hand to his nose, and put the tea bowl on the table, "I'm here to inspect the water transportation, who knows I'll see you by the river. Did you see it? I'm sorry to say hello , I have no choice but to pick you up."

"Tch!" Cen Zhu knew that she would turn her back on it, anyway, she would turn her back on it? No? This is the first time, it's right to listen to it the other way around, and it's pretty beautiful.
