Hou Ye's palm heart is a black lotus

Chapter 728 Taking Action (Second Update)
Ye Chutang's gaze swept over the face of the Prince of Yannan, but she did not continue to discuss the matter in depth. Instead, she changed the subject and asked about another matter.

"I heard that the Prince of Yannan was previously poisoned by Tuoba Yu with Gu poison? I wonder if you are feeling better now?"

The Prince of Yannan was taken aback, but quickly realized that the news must have been leaked by Ye Chutang's friend in Longcheng.

He knew this person existed, but he didn't know much about him.

After the predicament in Longcheng was resolved, he spent most of his time with Ye Yunfeng and others. He then rushed back to the capital to escort Tuoba Yu back, so he hadn't had time for anything else.

However, the few people closest to Ye Chutang knew about the Gu poison, so there was no need to hide it from her.

Princess Qinyang perked up and urged, "That's right, Father! Chu Tang happens to know a bit about Gu poison techniques, so tell her the details! Maybe she has a way to solve it!"

During this period of time, the Prince of Yannan had heard many rumors about Ye Chutang, including the story of her performing a public autopsy in the Ministry of Justice prison and killing the Gu worms in the bodies of those Southern Hu swordsmen.

only……

"How could Miss Ye know the art of Gu poison?" Prince Yannan asked, finally voicing the question that had been lingering in his mind for so long. "This is a secret art of the Southern Barbarians, not easily passed on to outsiders. Even the most prestigious Shui family members have to go through numerous selection processes before they are qualified to come into contact with it..."

Ye Chutang was born in Qingzhou and later followed Ye Zheng to the capital, but it seems that she did not stay for long before something happened to the Ye family.

After that, she traveled alone with her younger siblings, enduring many hardships, and eventually went south to Jiangling, where she lived for several years before returning to the capital last year.

No matter how you look at it, it seems she never had the chance to learn about these things about the Nanhu.

Ye Chutang shook her head. "I wouldn't say I'm an expert, I've only heard a few things and I'm just copying what I've heard. My friend is from Louyang, which is very close to Longcheng, so he knows a little about what's going on in the Nanhu region. I heard all this from him. A few years ago, he was injured and happened to come to my clinic, which is how we met."

The King of Yannan suddenly realized, "So that's how it is!"

That makes sense.

Ye Chutang possesses excellent medical skills. During the years she ran her clinic, she met countless people and naturally became very knowledgeable.

"Besides, I'm really not that good at this. I only just found out that Lord Fan Chengzhuo was poisoned by Gu."

Ye Chutang brought it up very naturally, as if she didn't find it particularly frightening.

"I met Lord Fan not long ago, and I even took the time to examine him. Unfortunately, I only thought he was poisoned at the time, which delayed his treatment."

Princess Qinyang curled her lip, "That kind of person deserves to die ten thousand times! What's there to pity? In my opinion, every day he lives is another day of sin he commits!"

Fan Chengzhuo's reputation is completely ruined.

Not only did he abandon his wife and children, but he also colluded with Varjin to seek personal gain. He was capable of such treason and collusion with the enemy. He should have died long ago!
The sin is unforgivable!

However, Ye Chutang's words also confirmed the rumors circulating in the capital.

The Prince of Yan frowned and asked, "Was he really bewitched? But he's stayed in the capital the whole time and has never left here. How could this happen? Have those people from the Southern Barbarians become so audacious?"

"So what?" Princess Qinyang shrugged. "Didn't several Southern Hu assassins get captured before? That's enough to prove that those people have already extended their reach into the capital. Targeting Fan Chengzhuo would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it? Perhaps, besides Fan Chengzhuo, there are others who have also been poisoned by Gu, but they just haven't been discovered yet!"

Although the statement is crude, it is indeed reasonable.

"Forget about their mess for now, someone will investigate. Chu Tang, why don't you take my father's pulse first?"

Princess Qinyang was still very worried about her father's health.

Although he seemed to have no other problems besides being a little weak during his time back, it would still be more reassuring to check on him.

Fearing that the sound of her walking might cause unnecessary trouble, she didn't even call the imperial physician.

Now, the only one I can rely on is Ye Chutang. Ye Chutang nodded, "According to my friend, the soft bone gu that Tuoba Yu used on the Prince of Yannan is a very common gu poison. It will only temporarily make people lose their martial arts ability and feel weak and unable to exert their strength, but it will not endanger their lives."

Princess Qinyang's eyes lit up. "So, you can solve this?"

Ye Chutang placed her fingers on the wrist of the Prince of Yannan, pondered for a moment, and said, "Perhaps it's worth a try."

Hearing her say that, Princess Qinyang's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, immediately settled down.

"That's great!"

She understood Ye Chutang; if she said that, then there must be a way!
Sure enough, Ye Chutang then took out a needle and silk cloth, as well as a dagger as thin as a cicada's wing and extremely sharp.

"Ayan."

Ye Chutang simply called out, and Ye Jingyan nodded, turned around, and walked out.

A short while later, he returned with a candlestick and a pot of wine.

Princess Qinyang was quite familiar with this scene.

The Prince of Yannan vaguely guessed what she was going to do, but he just sat there and let Ye Chutang do as she pleased.

Then, Ye Chutang said, "Please roll up your sleeves."

The King of Yan did as instructed, revealing his still-strong arms and calmly laying them flat.

Ye Chutang took out the needles and inserted them along the arm of the Prince of Yannan, in sequence at Tianquan, Quze, and Neiguan.

The Prince of Yannan felt a dense, tingling pain on the inside of his arm, as if ants were biting him.

As Ye Chutang moved, the tingling and numb sensation became stronger and stronger.

The Prince of Yannan frowned slightly, then quickly relaxed, and patiently endured the situation with a calm expression.

This is really nothing to him.

"Ah Feng." Ye Chutang placed the last needle into the Laogong acupoint.

Ye Yunfeng immediately disinfected the dagger with alcohol and then heated it over a fire.

Ye Chutang reached out her hand, and Ye Yunfeng immediately handed the dagger to her palm.

Ye Chutang didn't even raise her head. Her dark, calm eyes were fixed on Yan Nanwang's palm as she held the dagger and made a very light and quick cut on it.

Her movements were so swift and decisive, without any hesitation, that by the time the Prince of Yannan reacted, blood was already seeping from his palm!

The blood is flowing!
But he still didn't move, continuing to watch Ye Chutang's movements.

Princess Qinyang felt as if her heart was being gripped by something, but her eyes refused to look away, staring intently.

Soon, the Prince of Yannan felt the itching sensation spread to his palm, accompanied by a faint stinging pain.

He couldn't help but look down.

at this time!

It felt as if something was surging beneath the wound in my palm!
Ye Chutang reacted quickly, and with a sharp dagger, she immediately picked out the blood clot the size of a fingernail!
Keng!
