The empress is wild and cool, and I'll help her secure her throne

The mother of Qian Jianan, the Minister of Revenue, was named Liu Lingyu.

When she was young, her family was poor and she was just the daughter of a tofu shop owner. However, she was born with a good appearance and was noticed by the Minister of Revenue of the previous dynasty, who forced her to be his concubine.

In the 20th year of her marriage, the former Minister of Revenue died and she became a widow!

The most coincidental thing is that the previous Minister of Revenue had seven children, six of whom were daughters!

The child born by Qian Jianan, the concubine, was actually the only male in the Qian family!

At this point, Qian Jianan took over the Ministry of Revenue.

Liu Lingyu's status as a mother began to rise because of her son!

However, there are always many troubles around a widow, and even the mother of the Minister of Revenue is no exception.

In recent years, there have been many old bureaucrats who want to have a taste of this timeless beauty!

But Liu Lingyu already had someone in her heart - her childhood sweetheart, Zeng Dehai.

Zeng Dehai and Liu Lingyu are childhood sweethearts, and they have already secretly decided to spend their lives together!

If the previous minister of finance hadn't intervened, the two of them would have already been together forever!

After Liu Lingyu became a concubine in the residence of the Minister of Revenue, Zeng Dehai lost all hope and entered the palace to become a eunuch!

Now he has held the third rank and become the director of the Imperial Kitchen!

When Ye Qianxuan saw this, his heart skipped a beat!

The empress was poisoned because the Shangshenjian gave her lung abscess poison!

And this Liu Lingyu also died of lung abscess!

Is it...

Ye Qianxuan quickly read on.

After the death of the previous dynasty's Minister of Revenue, Liu Lingyu often had secret meetings with the Imperial Kitchen Supervisor Zeng Dehai!

Zeng Dehai is in charge of the Imperial Kitchen, and he can get many delicacies that cannot be seen outside the palace. He uses all kinds of delicious food to feed the white moonlight in his heart!

After all, the two of them couldn’t even get enough to eat before, so this feeding contained a lot of romance from that time!

And last night was no exception.

After the two had a secret meeting, Liu Lingyu ate the food Zeng Dehai gave her!

After returning, he fell ill and could not get up!

People in their seventies and eighties can't stand the hardship.

He died before the doctor even arrived!

Treatment method: Eat the poison.

Corpse grade: Heavenly grade.

Rewards after sewing the corpse: Taoist photo stone, purple thunder talisman.

Ye Qianxuan: ???

It was just the corpse of a twilight lover who accidentally ingested lung abscess poison, yet it was actually a Heavenly Grade?!

But this reward is really generous!

Taoist photo stones are equivalent to modern cameras. As long as they are infused with spiritual energy, they can stimulate photographic projections, which can be a great help in finding evidence!

This definitely belongs to the sect's magic weapon!

The highest level of talisman is purple!

Once this purple thunder talisman is deployed, it will surely be earth-shattering.

Ye Qianxuan put the Taoist photo stone and the purple thunder talisman into the storage ring, then sat cross-legged on the ground and began to think!

The method of treatment recorded in "The Record of Heavenly Corpses" is to eat the poison from the demon.

That must be the disgusting thing that the old lady stuffed into her mouth before she lay down!

But what exactly is this demonic poison? !

The poison of lung abscess? The poison of curse?

But Ye Qianxuan's body had not reacted at all except for the stinging pain from the curse, so he had no idea what the poison was. He could only put aside his doubts for the time being.

Let’s look back at “Record of Heavenly Corpses” again.

In fact, the information provided in the "Heavenly Corpse Record" is very little. Ye Qianxuan can only extract two useful pieces of information from it:

First, the Chief of the Imperial Kitchen was not aware that there was lung abscess poison in the dish, otherwise he would never have given it to his old lover.

This indirectly proves that the real culprit behind the scenes must be someone of a higher rank than the Imperial Kitchen Commander, who could have ordered the young eunuchs of the Imperial Kitchen Commander to poison the food without the Imperial Kitchen Commander's knowledge.

If the matter were to be exposed, Zeng Dehai, who was unaware of the situation, would obviously become a scapegoat.

Second, this lung abscess poison was created by the demon clan.

Moreover, the level of that demon clan should be very high, perhaps even higher than the demon king who killed Liu Zaidao!

Otherwise, it would be impossible for this old lady to become a heavenly-level corpse.

To be able to cooperate with such a high-level demon clan, the real culprit behind the scenes must have extremely high status and ability!

These two points fully pointed to the Grand Chamberlain.

Only the Grand Chamberlain can perfectly meet these two conditions!

Add to that the fact that the Third Princess has a very close relationship with the Grand Chamberlain, and all of this makes sense!

But... where is the evidence? !

There is no way to show "Record of Heavenly Corpses" to others, so I can only uncover it step by step by myself!

Ye Qianxuan thought about it, and then a plan emerged in his mind!

After making up his mind, he immediately stood up and opened the door of the morgue!

At this moment, the sky was already dark.

Qian Jianan and his many followers had already been waiting outside with torches.

"Minister Qian, I never imagined that your father would become a demon corpse!"

"Luckily you hired me, otherwise, who knows how many innocent corpse tailors would have died!"

"I, your humble servant, have fulfilled my mission!"

Ye Qianxuan bowed deeply, which made Qian Jianan stunned!

Monster corpse? !

How could my mother, who never leaves the house, become a demon corpse?

Qian Jianan frowned and calmly arranged the funeral for his mother.

Afterwards, he dismissed everyone and left Ye Qianxuan alone in the main hall!

The demon corpse curse on Ye Qianxuan's neck hurt so much, but he could only bow respectfully to Qian Jianan:

"Minister Qian, what else is there?"

Qian Jianan gently picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and asked indifferently:

"A mere thousand-year-old ginseng can incite you to go against the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites?"

"Are you so desperate for ginseng?"

When Ye Qianxuan heard Qian Jianan’s words, he was immediately delighted!

He knew that during the time he was sewing the corpse, Qian Jianan must have investigated the matter of Eunuch Cao giving him the thousand-year-old ginseng!

So, he bowed his head respectfully and said, "Yes..."

"I'm afraid Minister Qian doesn't know something!"

"Every time I sew up a demon corpse, I'll be attacked by the demonic energy within. I have to rely on the spiritual energy of heavenly materials and earthly treasures to suppress it!"

"I had just finished sewing up General Liu Zaidao's body, and my neck was hurting terribly. I urgently needed that precious spiritual energy to suppress it, so..."

"Please forgive me, Minister Qian!"

In order to prove that what he said was true, Ye Qianxuan also revealed the sword-shaped curse on his neck. At this moment, it was beating with his pulse, and the surrounding skin had been pierced red!

Minister Qian narrowed his eyes and said, "You mean, the curse on your neck is stirring now? It should be the evil spirit after sewing up my mother's demonic corpse!"

"Then you'd be so kind to give me all the treasures the Empress gifted you with."

After Qian Jianan finished speaking, he waved his hand and a servant came with a tray of rare jade and precious stones in front of Ye Qianxuan: "This is a reward for you!"

"Thank you, Minister Qian!"

Ye Qianxuan's eyes lit up. He never thought that he could see the return of his money!

Ye Qianxuan quickly grabbed the jade stones and began to absorb spiritual energy!

The tingling sensation on the neck began to slowly disappear as the spiritual energy entered!

A lot of jade was consumed to suppress the pain this time!

Only after Ye Qianxuan absorbed all the jade in the tray did the stinging sensation from the demon corpse's curse completely disappear.

Ye Qianxuan felt that the appetite of this demon corpse's curse had been growing bigger and bigger recently!

Seeing that the curse mark on Ye Qianxuan's neck really stopped beating as the jade was consumed, Qian Jianan also believed what Ye Qianxuan said.

"Ye Qianxuan, then tell me, why did my mother become a demon corpse?"

"I dare not speak nonsense!" Ye Qianxuan said with a bow.

"Oh! Is there anything you dare not say?" Qian Jianan sneered: "Just say it!"

"Then... I will just respectfully obey your orders!" Ye Qianxuan took a deep breath and then said:

"The old lady had an affair with the chief eunuch, the chief chef, and accidentally ingested a demonic poison. This is why she became seriously ill and died, becoming a demon corpse!"

in short.

The eunuch became your Minister of Revenue's stepfather!

"What did you say?!"

Qian Jianan immediately became furious!
