During the famine, my ancient well connected to modern times

Ji Ziqiu was tongue-tied, "Sijifang, do you want to go there at this late hour?"

Guo Xing glanced at the sky, turned around in a tangled circle, and finally said: "Go now, there are some things that I won't be able to sleep if I don't ask you clearly."

Ji Ziqiu didn't say much after hearing this, and asked someone to hitch a carriage and go straight to Four Seasons Square.

On the way, Ji Ziqiu told him about the juices of different poisonous weeds in the food.

Guo Xing asked: "Two poisonous herbs are not common in the first place, but they still use such vicious methods. Who sent the food?"

"The jailer said that someone from Xuanwenhou's mansion sent it at noon, but I sent someone to ask Xuanwenhou, and he said that he did not send anyone to deliver anything. He also said that he believed that your Excellency would find out the truth."

Guo Xing snorted, "Marquis Xuanwen is putting a high hat on me!"

Ji Ziqiu smiled apologetically.

Since it was not sent by someone from the Xuanwen Hou Mansion, it was most likely sent by Princess Changle. Her own son was dead, so she must have hated Hou Cheng and wished she would die.

However, such a complicated method was used, which was a bit unlike Princess Changle's style.

According to Princess Changle's temperament, she would not have thought of mixing two herbs to kill Hou Cheng. Could there be other murderers?

The carriage stopped in front of Ouyang's house, and the housekeeper in the house was already waiting for him.

"You two adults, please come inside. My husband and wife are waiting in the main hall!"

"Please lead the way."

In the main hall, after a brief exchange of greetings between the two parties, Guo Xing directly stated his intention.

"To be honest, I came here this time to ask Miracle Doctor Ouyang for advice on something."

"It's okay, sir. I'll tell you what I know." Ouyang Zhen followed his advice and did not embarrass Guo Xing.

Everyone knows that His Majesty has asked the Jingzhao Mansion to be responsible for the case of Qi Huaiyu's death. Guo Xing hurried over so late, presumably because there has been new progress in the case.

"Qi Huaiyu smoked a kind of cigarette in the room before the accident, a very special kind of cigarette. It is said that a few puffs will make people feel like they are in a fairyland."

Ouyang Zhen stopped drinking tea.

Guo Xing continued: "Qi Huaiyu has been craving it ever since he tasted it once in a while, but I have never heard of this kind of cigarette before. Does this kind of cigarette really exist in the world?"

Ouyang Zhen was visibly panicked for a moment, but quickly calmed down and nodded under the gaze of the two people, "Yes."

Guo Xing and Ji Ziqiu looked at each other, a little surprised, and asked eagerly: "Really, what is it?"

Ouyang Zhen opened his mouth, but when the words came to his lips, he took them back, "Follow me."

Ouyang Zhen took the two of them to his pharmacy and took out a few tobacco leaves from a tall box. "This is the tobacco leaf for the kind of cigarette you are talking about."

Guo Xing got Ouyang Zhen's consent, took it out, looked at it carefully for a moment, smelled it, and almost ate it.

Of course he didn't dare to eat it, who knew if it was poisonous.

Lan Xin was silent for a long time, then pulled Ouyang Zhen's sleeve and asked, "I have never seen this thing before. What kind of herbal medicine is this?"

Lan Xin was well versed in medical science and had seen common herbs, but she seemed to have never seen the one inside the box.

Ouyang Zhen explained, "These are elephant rice leaves, which grow in places with smog. I also discovered it by chance. Elephant rice can be used to treat chronic cough due to lung deficiency, and can also be used to treat spleen deficiency and persistent diarrhea. It was originally used in He was included in the medicine I gave Song Zheyuan when we were in Qingzhou."

Lan Xin vaguely remembered that when she was boiling medicine for Song Zheyuan, she saw him adding something to the medicine jar.

It turns out to be Xiangmi.

Ji Ziqiu was puzzled, "Since this is a medicinal material, why did Qi Huaiyu become like that?" In the eyes of most people, medicinal materials are used to treat diseases. Of course, there are also poisonous medicinal materials, but it makes people feel like I don’t think I’ve ever heard of the medicinal herbs that are crazy.

If there were, those hedonistic people wouldn't have bought them in large quantities long ago.

"In addition to the functions I mentioned, the most important thing about this product is that it has a very good analgesic effect. However, it has a disadvantage. If you use it too often, it will become addictive and you will have hallucinations after taking it."

Ouyang Zhen sighed: "Over time, it will be extremely harmful to the human body. If you take Xiangmi for a long time, the children you will give birth to will have defects, and you may even be unable to give birth to children."

Guo Xing was so frightened that he threw the things in his hands away and rubbed his hands hard until they turned red.

"Miracle Doctor Ouyang, can you give me some of these leaves?"

Ouyang Zhen guessed what he was using it for, nodded, wrapped the bag for him personally, and told him the amount to use.

Early the next morning, Luo Tingye called the six ministers, ministers, and people in the clan who could speak out into the palace, and asked Guo Xing to tell the case in front of everyone.

Jiang Qian and Luo Huanhuan were also there, and sitting opposite them was the haggard Princess Changle.

After not seeing her for a few days, she seemed to have aged more than ten years overnight and looked like an old woman.

Seeing this, Luo Huanhuan also suppressed the resentment in her heart.

When everyone arrived, Luo Tingye signaled to Guo Xing that it was time to start.

"The case of Qi Huaiyu has finally been cleared up after Jingzhao Mansion's day-and-night investigation. Your Majesty and your Excellencies are invited to take a look at it."

Everyone was given a copy of the closing statement. When it was their turn, there was no more, so only two adults read one.

Most of the people hadn't finished reading when they heard a roar. Feng Jizhong was so frightened that he almost called for the imperial guard to escort him, but he shut his mouth when he realized it was Princess Changle.

"Impossible, you Luo Tingye, in order to favor your sister, you don't take my aunt seriously at all, right?"

Prince Li's face suddenly darkened, "Chang Le, don't be ridiculous. How can your Majesty, as the emperor, be biased?"

What a big hat.

Luo Tingye straightened himself.

"Guo Xing, since Princess Changle doesn't believe it, you must provide evidence."

Guo Xing hesitated, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is not good!"

Ouyang Zhen said that when using this thing, the dosage must be controlled, otherwise something may happen.

Luo Tingye said with a smile: "No one will die anyway. If you don't test it yourself, how can Princess Changle believe it?"

"Your Majesty, I wonder what you want to test?" Luo Mingwen said.

"Fun experiment, do you want to try it?"

Luo Mingwen's hair stood on end and he shook his head in embarrassment.

Guo Xingdao: "We found that the reason why Qi Huaiyu fell down the stairs that day was related to a kind of tobacco. This kind of tobacco can make people lose their mind and feel like they are in a dream."

"Everything people see after taking it is unreal, and the five senses will be lost. Combined with some inexplicable words Qi Huaiyu said that day, it should be the reaction after taking the medicine."

"Long-term use can lead to addiction, hallucinations, and even annihilation of children and grandchildren." (End of Chapter)
