Chapter 134 New Guests
Chu Ci smiled slightly: "Look behind you again?"
"What? Sister-in-law, you are going to disclose the methods of making sugar, brewing wine, processing konjac and even growing it?" In the eyes of Qianxue and Qianyan, a secret recipe costing dozens of coins, which was just throwing money away.
Chu Ci did not explain too much, but just said: "These things cannot be protected by the Fan family, and even the royal family may not be able to protect them. In this case, why not make the people's lives easier, which can also be regarded as our merit."
Qianxue and Qianyan knew that Chuci's worries were justified, but they always felt that they were not the real reasons.
So Qianxue asked tentatively: "Sister-in-law, if the merchant Miss all proposed to buy the house, would we sell it?"
"Sell it? Why not?"
What Chu Ci has to do is to spread the prescription as much as possible, and the rest is left to the creativity of the working people, who will never disappoint anyone.
When people are busy, time really flies by.
One morning, Chu Ci washed up and had breakfast as usual, preparing to go to the women's college in the suburbs, but was stopped by Jin Ming.
"Madam, the master needs to remove the poison today. Can you and Doctor Hua stay?"
Chu Ci was slightly stunned when he heard this: "Removing the Gu? Has the Gu King from Southern Xinjiang arrived?"
Jin Ming knew that Chu Ci was very busy during this period, but he didn't expect that there were two more people at the dinner table, and Chu Ci didn't even notice.
His expression was slightly distorted. "We arrived yesterday afternoon, but it was dark and it was a little inconvenient to remove the Gu, so we were delayed for some time."
"Oh, okay." Since it was a matter of life and death, and Chu Ci also wanted to learn a trick or two, there was naturally no reason to refuse.
On the other side, in the room where the Purple-Robed Envoy was, the Gu King Linglong was waiting there bored.
Seeing Doctor Hua and Master Chuci coming in, Linglong jumped up instantly: "Everyone should be here, we can start now!"
Jin Ming looked at the Fifth Prince who was dressed in black in the corner like an ordinary secret guard. Seeing the Fifth Prince nod, Jin Ming responded, "Okay."
"Then you guys better watch carefully." After Linglong said that, she first lay on top of the purple-clothed envoy and carefully checked his breath and pulse.
Then he moved as fast as lightning and sealed all the major acupoints on the purple-clothed man's chest.
Finally, he sat cross-legged, chanting a tune that no one else could understand.
Time passed minute by minute, and as the melody became more and more loud, cold sweat continued to break out on Zi Yi's forehead. A certain spot on his chest also bulged and moved towards his throat.
"Ah!" The man in purple couldn't bear the pain anymore and cried out. Then he saw a red worm about three inches long crawling out of his mouth.
"Ugh——" The fifth prince was so stimulated by this scene that he vomited.
Chu Ci and Fan Jingrui also felt unwell, but luckily they had previous experience and they managed to hold it in, but their faces did not look very good.
Only Doctor Hua was not affected at all, staring at the man and the insect not far away without blinking.
Until Linglong stopped chanting, took out a bamboo bucket from her arms, and the long red worm crawled into the bucket through the mouth.
Linglong nodded upon hearing this.
But when he answered, he looked not at Doctor Hua, nor at Jin Ming, but at the Fifth Prince who thought he was hiding well.
"The Gu is just a minor problem for me. What's difficult for me is dealing with the deficiencies in his body. And as far as I know, you Central Plains doctors are best at regulating the internal organs. So, can I leave now?"
The fifth prince did not answer, "Can you tell me how you recognized me?"
However, it was just a simple question, and Linglong's alertness instantly reached the maximum. "What does the Great Zhou court want to do?"
"Eliminate all Gu women and Gu masters in the Great Zhou. Since you claim that Gu cannot leave Southern Border, then you must keep your word."
The Fifth Prince's aura was fully revealed at this time. He stared at Linglong and said, "This is your responsibility as the Gu King."
Linglong naturally took the responsibility to subdue the traitor, but the mentality was completely different when doing it voluntarily and when being forced.
Linglong immediately became angry: "You plan to put me under house arrest, have you considered the consequences?"
Then he looked around and said: "What about you guys? Are you going to let this black guy do whatever he wants?"
Unfortunately, Linglong's calculations were wrong, and there were not many opportunities to keep the Gu King legitimately.
The first one to go out was Doctor Hua: "This is not to do whatever you want, but to be prepared for any eventuality. You'd better stay until the Fifth Prince recovers."
The second person was Chu Ci. "You came so happily, isn't it because you don't want to affect the relationship between Southern Xinjiang and Great Zhou? If so, why do you give up halfway?"
If Doctor Hua's words were slightly threatening, then Chu Ci's words touched Linglong's heart.
Then Linglong turned her eyes and came to Chuci: "My name is Linglong, sister, can you tell me what is your relationship with that black guy?"
Feeling the other party's kindness, Chu Ci also imitated the other party and introduced herself: "My name is Chu Ci, you can call me Sister Chu, or just call me Chu Ci."
After introducing himself, Chu Ci paused deliberately: "As for the black guy you mentioned, we have nothing to do with him. If you insist, I can only say that we are all using our abilities to make Southern Xinjiang and Da Zhou peaceful and stable."
"And I believe Linglong is the same." Chu Ci not only praised himself highly, but also praised Linglong highly.
"Okay, I'll stay. I'll take care of the matter regarding the Gu worm. But the rest has nothing to do with me. Can you guys agree to that?"
Linglong knew in her heart that as long as the King of Shu went after the royal family of Southern Xinjiang, she would still not be able to escape, so after weighing the pros and cons, Linglong quickly made a choice.
This time Chu Ci did not answer, but turned to look at the Fifth Prince not far away.
The fifth prince knew this was the best outcome. "Okay, I will send a letter to the court and confirm your request in black and white with the Southern Xinjiang royal family."
Does Linglong still have room for rebuttal?
At this point, Chu Ci's courtyard had a new guest.
The caged guests, Chen's father and son, finally moved to another place.
And thanks to the blessing of Linglong Gu King, the clam-like mouths of Chen and his son were also pried open.
Following the clues provided by the two, it was easy to uncover "Yao Qilin" and his backer. However, this backer was beyond everyone's expectations.
How can you not share such an interesting thing with someone?
So Linglong found Chuci.
"What you mean is that the fake Yao Qilin gave the stolen money to the real Yao Qilin. And the real Yao Qilin is the fake Yao Qilin's backer." Chu Ci listened to Linglong's narration and summed up a difficult truth.
Linglong nodded: "Isn't it interesting?"
Chu Ci: "It's quite interesting, but you'd better keep such a secret to yourself."
Linglong curled her lips in disdain when she heard this: "You people of the Great Zhou are just cunning."
