Emperor Phoenix Policy: Feng Qingtian

Chapter 228 Gu Insect
The surrounding air suddenly became cold, Master Mu's mind froze, he subconsciously closed his mouth, and stared at the gloomy face of the sect master vigilantly.

"Master, maybe you accidentally hurt the queen, maybe you didn't..."

While explaining, Master Mu retreated a little bit.

Seeing his cautious appearance, the door master suddenly smiled with his lips curled up, and his voice could not hear the emotion, "Really?"

"There are many hidden guards around the empress, so it won't hurt her."

Master Mu felt a little regretful, he shouldn't have said those words frankly, he just wanted to reveal a little bit in advance because he was worried that the sect master would vent his anger on the young master after knowing that the queen had been accidentally injured.

"I think so too."

The door master smiled, that smile was as charming as before, but it made Master Mu inexplicably permeable. The door master smiled and glanced at him, "Aren't you leaving? Didn't you rush back to bandage the wound?"

The door owner was so generous that Master Mu felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. He walked forward suspiciously, and after walking a few steps, he turned his head abruptly, and saw the door owner standing where he was, looking at him with a charming smile. After he left, Master Mu felt even more strange.

Master Mu didn't feel relieved until he returned to Xuanyuanzhen's blue-tiled mansion in the imperial capital and saw that there was nothing unusual about him or any other feelings.

The doctor was treating the wound on Master Mu's back, and Xuanyuan Zhen knew that the plan had failed, and his face was always gloomy.

"Don't worry, young master, even if you fail this time, you will succeed next time."

Master Mu said in a low voice, Xuanyuan Zhen snorted coldly, without words, he also knew that Master Mu tried his best, but he was still extremely unhappy, this opportunity is too rare, but Xuanyuan Ling is still doing well, his father has already started planning Bring Xuanyuan Ling back to Dayan Hall, and when Xuanyuan Ling returns to Dayan Hall, I am afraid that his father will announce the change of heir, and by then, his young master will come to an end.

Seeing Xuanyuanzhen's expression was cold, Master Mu wisely didn't speak any more. He was escorted by the Sect Master of Death Gate, and he even messed up the matter. No wonder the Young Master was unhappy.

Li Yidao was afraid that Xuanyuanzhen would say something when he was angry, which would hurt Master Mu's heart. After all, Master Mu's ability is not comparable to many people, so he said quickly, "Don't worry, young master, even if the second son returns to Dayan Hall , we also have a way to deal with him."

"What way? At that time, he will be under the nose of father. If we do something to him, father will know."

Xuanyuanzhen's tone was a little off.

Li Yidao and Master Mu looked at each other, Master Mu thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, young master, I still have a way."

Xuanyuanzhen frowned and looked at Master Mu, "This young master said that you should call yourself a subordinate or a minister in front of this young master, and you can't call yourself me. Have you forgotten? You are as respectful to your father as you are to this young master." Is it rude?"

Master Mu's face changed slightly, he was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice, "This subordinate knows."

Xuanyuanzhen snorted coldly, and said condescendingly, "For the sake of your hard work, this young master will not punish you this time, but you must find a way to deal with Xuanyuanling and make up for it!"

"Don't worry, young master, His Highness the Crown Prince trusts his subordinates. Even if the Second Young Master returns to Dayan Hall, the subordinates will be able to provoke the relationship between the Second Young Master and His Highness the Crown Prince, making it impossible for the Second Young Master to gain a foothold in the Great Yan Hall."

"It's good that you really have that ability, otherwise you will be wasting my young master's time and energy."

After Xuanyuanzhen finished speaking coldly, without even looking at Master Mu, he lifted his foot and left.

Seeing this, Li Yidao frowned, and hurriedly said to Master Mu with an apologetic smile, "The young master was only angry for a while, and didn't intend to disrespect the master. Please don't take it to heart. When the young master calms down, he will definitely report to the master. apologetic."

Master Mu didn't say anything, and waved Li Yidao back.

Li Yidao said a few more good words for Xuanyuan Zhen before going out.

As soon as he left the house, Li Yidao immediately went to Xuanyuanzhen's yard. As soon as he entered the gate, he saw Xuanyuanzhen standing in the yard looking up at the dark sky, wondering what he was thinking.

"Little Lord."

Li Yidao walked behind him and said in a low voice.

Xuanyuanzhen turned around and looked at Li Yidao with burning eyes, "Do you think Master Mu is trustworthy?"

The last time the two were drugged by the sect master, when something like that happened, they were a little embarrassed to see each other, but Li Yidao is the best in martial arts in the world, Xuanyuanzhen needs his protection, so he can only endure all kinds of disgusting emotions, pretending to be nonchalant look.

"The young master means that Master Mu has a ghost?"

"I don't know, I just think it's unbelievable for him to surrender to me."

Li Yidao's eyes flashed, "The young master is saying that he is a secret agent of His Royal Highness, and he deliberately surrendered to monitor the young master?"

"Otherwise? He stayed well by his father's side, won his father's trust and reliance, and his father always treated him very well. He could not enjoy the glory and wealth. He followed his father, and his future was obviously brighter than mine. How could he be here? After his mother passed away, he suddenly surrendered? He also said that he was entrusted by his mother, but I don’t remember that his mother had any friendship with him.”

Hearing what Xuanyuanzhen said, Li Yidao also became suspicious, "So, he is probably pretending to surrender, but he is still a member of His Highness the Crown Prince secretly?"

Xuanyuanzhen sneered, but said nothing.

Li Yidao suddenly thought of something, "The young master deliberately provoked him with words just now, in order to force him to show his true colors?"

Xuanyuanzhen shook his head, "No! I was testing him. If I despised him and disrespected him like this, but he insisted on following me, and he didn't look angry at all, then there must be ghosts!"

He said, looking at Li Yidao, "After I left, how did he react?"

"No reaction, no words, very calm."

calm?

Xuanyuanzhen's eyebrows were tightened, and at this moment, a guard rushed over and hurriedly said, "Young master, something happened to Master Mu!"

"What happened?"

Although Xuanyuanzhen doesn't trust Master Mu's loyalty very much, but Master Mu's unique ability makes him unable to ignore it.

"It seems to be poisoned."

"Poisoned? How could it be poisoned?"

Xuanyuanzhen murmured, and took Li Yidao to Master Mu's yard.

As soon as he reached the door, a stench came to his nostrils, which was very pungent. Xuanyuanzhen took out a snow-white handkerchief to cover his nose, and then walked in.

Master Mu was sitting on a chair, with countless blood holes appearing on his body, black blood kept coming out, the stench was coming from the blood, and some small black spots moved around in the blood, Xuanyuanzhen was very surprised , involuntarily leaning closer to look, Master Mu suddenly said, "Young master! Don't move!"

Xuanyuanzhen was taken aback, and looked at Master Mu with dissatisfaction.

Master Mu was dying, he looked straight at Xuanyuan Zhen, "Those things are Gu worms, young master, stay away, so as not to be stained by the Gu worms."

"Gu worm? How did you get hit by the worm? Could it be that the queen has a master of venomous poison?"

Xuanyuanzhen's face changed drastically. He glanced at Li Yidao. Li Yidao looked forward with the lantern, and found that those flowing black spots were indeed tiny bugs, which had been gnawing at the flesh and blood of Master Mu's body. Nibbled out one small hole after another.

Li Yidao nodded towards Xuanyuanzhen, Xuanyuanzhen's expression became extremely ugly in an instant, and he couldn't help but backed up a few steps, staying farther away from Master Mu, for fear of being stood on the slightest bit.

A trace of sadness flashed across Master Mu's face, he smiled wryly, "Don't worry, young master, this is probably a Gu laid down by the master of the gate of death, if the young master wants to save me..."

He hesitated to speak, but both Xuanyuanzhen and Li Yidao understood what he meant.

If he wanted to save him, Xuanyuanzhen would naturally ask the sect master.

Xuanyuanzhen's eyes floated up and down, flickering, flickering, lingering, the light of hope in Master Mu's eyes was extinguished little by little.

Li Yidao's complexion changed when he saw the faces of his subordinates around him showing cold lips and teeth, and the sad expressions of the rabbit and the fox, and whispered in Xuanyuan Zhen's ear, "Young master, so many people are watching, we must save Master Mu, at least, the superficial skills are What to do, otherwise it will chill the hearts of those who follow. After all, Master Mu has been secretly following the young master for several years, helping the young master to do a lot of things. The news from His Royal Highness was also sent by Master Mu. Even if the young master suspects that he is a person sent by His Royal Highness to monitor, on the surface, everyone thinks that he is loyal, and if something happens to someone loyally following, the young master will ignore him and watch him coldly, which will only make others feel cold."

Seeing that Xuanyuanzhen was silent and his expression was obviously shaken, Li Yidao continued to persuade, "Moreover, Master Mu is still of great use, and the benefits of saving him outweigh the disadvantages..."

Xuanyuanzhen made a gesture, and Li Yidao shut up knowingly.

"Master, don't worry, this young master will definitely ask the master for the antidote. If the sect master refuses to give it, I am willing to kneel down for the sake of the master!"

Xuanyuan Zhen said loudly, with a firm look on his face, he knows how to attract people's hearts better than anyone else.

Master Mu's eyes flickered slightly, and a slightly invisible strange expression flashed across his face.
