Chapter 52

Of course, he didn't expect things to develop to that point in the end. For this reason, he always felt guilty towards Huo Tianchen.

After a pause, Huo Tianxiao said again, "At this moment, immersing yourself in the sorrow of the past won't solve any problems, Chen, you should cheer up, the matter is not irreparable, is it?"

Huo Tianchen smiled sadly, "It's not that I feel sad, it's just that after this incident, I feel a little bit emotional. Most of the things in this world, the cycle of karma, has its own fate. This kind of fate, to a large extent, can be controlled by human beings. Yes. It's like I was poisoned this time, isn't it considered retribution?"

"Retribution, hum, I never believe in retribution...and you are not poisoned, but Gu." Huo Tianxiao sneered.

"Gu?" Huo Tianchen frowned, and said puzzledly, "Why is it different from what the imperial doctor said."

"The group of imperial doctors outside are full of wine bags and rice bags, full of brains and fat intestines, and they can see anything. But you are indeed a Gu." Huo Tianxiao said seriously.

"What kind of Gu?" Huo Tianchen asked suspiciously.

Huo Tianxiao sighed, "I don't know, but since it's a Gu, the person who cast the Gu must be someone close to you. Please tell me in detail, who have you had contact with recently."

Huo Tianchen pondered for a while, and said, "I just went to the queen."

"Empress?" Huo Tianxiao was slightly startled, "Could it be that someone deliberately framed her?"

"The Yushi Terrace is no longer what it used to be, and Prime Minister Xu has already retired and returned to his hometown. If it is framed, where do we start?" Huo Tianchen was puzzled.

Huo Tianxiao shook his head and said, "No, there is a big problem with this matter. Not to mention whether this matter has anything to do with the queen, but anyone who is suspected must not be let go, and must be thoroughly investigated, and here Anyone who has been in the palace for three months must be thoroughly investigated, and no one can be missed."

"This movement is too big."

"Even if the entire imperial palace is turned upside down, your life is not as important as yours." Huo Tianxiao's face was stern, not open to discussion.

After confronting each other for a while, Huo Tianchen nodded, "Okay, I will do as you wish."

"That's great, then I'll leave first. Regarding the matter of Gu poison, I will figure out a solution. You first clean up the affairs in the palace." Huo Tianxiao said, got up and left.

But he was extremely puzzled in his heart, knowing that Gu poison was only spread in the southern Xinjiang area, and although there were many concubines in Huo Tianchen's harem, none of them were women from southern Xinjiang.

Could it be that someone pretended to be in the palace?

Thinking of this, Huo Tianxiao's heart trembled, realizing that there might be a huge conspiracy hidden behind this.

Back at the palace, Huo Tianxiao gave Cui Jian detailed instructions for a while, and then walked straight towards Liushuang Garden.

The Daxiong Temple is all-encompassing. Perhaps, it is not certain that we can get any news from An Huan about this matter.

An Huan quarreled with Bei Gongxun for a long time today. Although she didn't suffer any injuries, she still suffered a bit.

Bei Gongxun shot very hard, determined to vent her anger on her, her arms were poked countless times, leaving many bruises, when Huo Tianxiao went in, Xiyue was giving her medicine.

Seeing Huo Tianxiao coming in, An Huan snorted coldly and turned her head away from him.

Huo Tianxiao didn't take it seriously, motioned Xiyue to leave, took the potion, and helped An Huan apply it.

An Huan grabbed the potion bottle ungratefully, and said with a sneer, "What? Is the lord trying to curry favor with me? Or, do you want something from me?"

"You know?" Huo Tianxiao asked.

"It's such a big mess, how could I not know, I'm not dead."

"Since you already know, you must have a little bottom in your heart. Tell me, what's going on." Huo Tianxiao asked quickly.

An Huan rolled his eyes, and said sarcastically, "My lord, you will not forget the good deed you did today, will you? Get close to me on purpose when you can use it, and kick me away when you don't. Who do you take me for?"

"Whatever you want to say, anyway, if this king wants to know the answer, you have to say it, or you have to say it if you don't." Huo Tianxiao said domineeringly.

"Look at you, you don't have the slightest sincerity to ask for help. If you don't say I don't know, even if I knew, I wouldn't be able to tell you." An Huan curled her lips in disdain and concentrated on applying the medicine to herself.

That dead woman Bei Gongxun was so cruel. If she hadn't been able to hide quickly, several holes would have been poked in her body. This kind of humiliation was simply unbearable for her.

Huo Tianxiao saw that she was indifferent, and was about to burst into anger. He suddenly remembered An Huan's previous identity, couldn't help taking a deep breath, and suppressed his anger, "Okay, then tell me, what exactly do you want? Will you say it?"

"I won't say anything."

"You're courting death." Huo Tianxiao was furious.

An Huan rolled her eyes recklessly, "Don't threaten me, I'm very lucky, and I won't have any problem living to a hundred years old. But Huo Tianchen, you'd better count with your fingers, he When will you die?"

"What do you mean by that, do you know it?" Huo Tianxiao's eyes lit up, as if he had seen a little hope, but when he saw An Huan's half-dead appearance again, he seemed to be thrown coldly Basin of cold water is like, teeth itching with hatred, but there is nothing to do.

"Nothing interesting." An Huan smiled lightly.

"No, you definitely have something to hide from me, tell me!" Huo Tianxiao said loudly.

An Huan chuckled, "Since you're so sure, please beg me."

"dream."

"It's fine if you don't ask, anyway, I'm not interested in this matter." After speaking, An Huan yawned, stretched her waist and said, "I'm tired, I'm going to bed, you can stay if you want, give me Good goalkeeper too."

Ignoring the livid anger on Huo Tianxiao's face, An Huan left straight away, counting in her heart as she walked.

"one two Three……"

On the third count, I heard Huo Tianxiao's voice coming from behind, "Slow down."

She stopped and smiled triumphantly, "Why, you're ready to ask me."

"No." Huo Tianxiao shook his head, "I owe you a favor for this matter, and you can order me to do one thing in the future."

"I know that you have great energy, King Xiaoyao, but unfortunately, I really don't have anything for you to do." An Huan said narrowly.

"What do you want."

"I just want you to ask me." An Huan said.

"I..." Huo Tianxiao looked a little confused.

An Huan didn't intend to give him time to think, so she waved her hand and said, "You don't have much time. You should know that I am not a person who keeps his word."

"If I beg you, what if you can't do it?" Huo Tianxiao frowned.

"Don't ask me if you don't believe me." An Huan sneered, extremely confident.

Looking at her, Huo Tianxiao knew that if he didn't lower his posture, she wouldn't be able to speak no matter what. He was such a proud person, he would rather bend than bend, when would he need to bow his knees to beg someone.

However, for Huo Tianchen, he absolutely couldn't leave him alone, because Huo Tianchen was his brother.

Thinking of this, Huo Tianxiao took a deep breath and said slowly, "An Huan, I beg you..."

"The voice is too low, I don't know what you are talking about? What are you begging me for?"

"Please help me solve this matter, Chen can't die." Huo Tianxiao said this, his face has become extremely ugly.

An Huan giggled, knowing that this was the limit Huo Tianxiao could bear, if she was forcing him, maybe he would threaten her with a knife on her neck.

She smiled and said, "Okay, for your sincerity is enough, I will accompany you to the palace."

"To the palace?" Huo Tianxiao was puzzled.

"I'm not a Da Luo god, so naturally I have to meet Huo Tianchen to be sure of my judgment, right?" An Huan said.

Huo Tianxiao frowned and thought for a while, "Okay, I'll prepare the carriage and leave right away."

Speaking of which, seeing Huo Tianchen in poor condition in Chengde Palace today, he was also very worried, otherwise there is no need to be so anxious.

However, his work efficiency was very fast. After giving the order, when he brought An Huan to the gate of the palace, the carriage was ready, and the two of them got on the carriage immediately and drove towards the palace.

……

In Chengde Palace, Empress Dowager Li looked worried.

But Huo Tianchen himself didn't show anything, he looked the same as usual, but his face was a little paler, and his eyes were not as bright as before.

Seeing Huo Tianxiao come in, Huo Tianchen pursed his lips into a smile, and then his eyes rested on An Huan.

Huo Tianxiao and An Huan greeted Queen Mother Li, and Huo Tianxiao said directly, "Your Majesty, let my wife feel your pulse."

"Oh." Huo Tianchen nodded with a smile, "Is Princess Xiaoyao good at medicine?"

"I understand a little." An Huan was not humble at this time.

"Then come." Huo Tianchen stretched out his hand generously, without avoiding suspicion.

An Huan was also not humble, and directly took a step forward, putting her finger on it.

It stands to reason that Huo Tianchen's body is precious, and ordinary people are not allowed to touch his body at all, but today there are no outsiders here, which saves those trivial troubles.

An Huan concentrated and listened to Huo Tianchen's pulse for a while, her face changed slightly.

Huo Tianxiao saw it, his heart tightened, and he asked, "How is it?"

"It's not poisoning." An Huan let go of her hand and replied.

Huo Tianxiao knew from Hou Yong that Huo Tianchen was not poisoned, but he didn't expect that An Huan could easily see it just by feeling his pulse, and he was slightly surprised.

Empress Dowager Li covered her mouth with her hand, and asked repeatedly, "What is it if it's not poisoning? Why is it different from what the imperial doctor said."

An Huan smiled faintly, but said nothing.

Huo Tianchen replied, "The imperial doctors are all idiots."

Empress Dowager Li's expression suddenly became a little ugly, "These damned slaves are not good at doing things, it seems that they need to be punished."

Huo Tianchen waved his hand, "The queen mother is too aggressive."

Empress Dowager Li snorted, obviously still angry.She immediately asked An Huan, "If it's not poisoning, then what is it?"

"If I'm not mistaken, the emperor should have been bewitched." An Huan said directly, and she glanced at Huo Tianxiao vaguely as she spoke.

Just now when she said that Huo Tianchen was not poisoned, Huo Tianxiao's mood fluctuated greatly for a moment. It seemed that he knew about it a long time ago, but he didn't tell her on the way here.

From the looks of it, he still kept his hand and didn't trust her.

"Under the Gu, how could it be?" Empress Dowager Li was inexplicably astonished.

"It shouldn't be wrong." An Huan said, "And this kind of Gu poison is extremely strange and rare. It hasn't appeared for many years. I don't understand why it appeared in the palace."

"What do you mean?" Huo Tianxiao heard a hint of something unusual with his temples twitching heavily.

"What the emperor hits is Adu Gu."

"What?" Huo Tianxiao's complexion changed drastically, and he became extremely pale in a flash.

You must know that Adu Gu has always been popular in southern Xinjiang, and it is usually planted on the goddesses or saints of the tribe to keep them chaste.

Because after this kind of Gu poison is planted in the human body, it cannot be emotional, otherwise, the Adu Gu in the body will form a backlash and produce a toxin, and there is no antidote for this toxin.
