"Emperor, Your Majesty, ministers and concubines dare not." Tong Xu trembled slightly, lowering his head.

"Why, this Gu worm will kill people?" Kangxi asked.

"Yes, yes..." Tong promised to bite the bullet and said.

Kangxi immediately became angry: "Bold and bold Tong promised to use such a vicious thing, who are you trying to kill?"

"Your Majesty, there is no concubine. The concubine didn't intend to use this Gu worm at all, so it has been stored in the box." Tong promised to explain with a blank face, it seems that he is guilty of this matter no matter what.

"I didn't plan to use it? Then why did you ask Boolean for it?" Kangxi saw that she was not telling the truth, and she was still deceiving her, so she became more and more angry.

"Chenqie... Chenqie was obsessed with ghosts at that time, but later on, she didn't intend to use it anymore."

"Since you don't intend to use it, why don't you dispose of the Gu worm?"

Tong promised to break out in a cold sweat, and after thinking for a while, he said: "The concubine didn't have time... and was punished to the cold palace."

"Heh, so it's still my fault?" Kangxi was furious, but this woman would argue.

"The concubine dare not..."

Kangxi stared at her coldly, and said after a while: "Then take out the Gu worm from Liang Jiugong's body, if you can take it out, I will believe you."

"This... this Gu worm has just been swallowed, I'm afraid it will take a while before it can..." Tong promised with a perplexed face.

"How long will it take?" Kangxi continued to ask.

Tong promised that there was nothing he could do, so he had to say, "It will take three to five days..."

"Three or five days? Okay, then you just kneel here for three days, and I will come again after three days. If you can't get it out by then, I want you to look good." Why couldn't Kangxi hear her excuses, he said Let's see what Tong promised to say three days later.

"Your majesty, this..." Tong Xu was stunned. The emperor actually wanted her to kneel here for three days?

This is the Palace of Yanxi Palace, if she had been kneeling here, wouldn't she just let Concubine Hui take care of her?

"Your Majesty, please rest assured, my concubine will supervise Sister Tong well, and she must not let her be lazy." Concubine Hui immediately took a step forward to show her attitude.

Tong promised that her nose was crooked with anger. She was sure that this woman must be thinking about how to deal with her.

"En." Kangxi responded, and left with Liang Jiugong.

As soon as he left, Tong promised to become even more flustered, and saw two black shadows surrounding him, one from the left and the other from the right, it was Concubine Degui and Concubine Hui.

"You, what do you want to do?"

"Tong promised, why are you doing this? Die now and kneel here for three days before dying, you actually chose the latter, why do you like kneeling so much?" Ma Quan taunted with a smile.

This Tong promised that he would not die if he didn't do anything, if he didn't put a spell on Concubine Hui and urged her to move so quickly, he would still stay in the cold palace right now.

Maybe the Tong family will find a way to intercede with the emperor and release her.

It's good now, the last chance has been missed, let's see how she can argue this time.

Tong Xu's complexion changed slightly, and Ma Guan's words hit her heart, yes, so what if it was delayed for three days?At that time, it will still be revealed.

"I didn't expect Tong promised to have this habit." Concubine Hui covered her mouth and chuckled, she couldn't help but be happy that this woman finally fell into her hands again.

The slap the day before yesterday made her lose face, and she has to make up for it.

Tong promised to dare to be angry but not to speak out. Seeing this, the two of them lost all intention of making fun, so Ma Guan got up and left quickly.

Three days passed, and Kangxi brought Liang Jiugong back to the Palace of Yanxi Palace again, only to see that Tong Xu's complexion was pale, exhausted, and even his lips were chapped.

"The concubine has met the emperor..." Tong promised to say hello in a hoarse voice, as if trying to force a smile.

Kangxi asked expressionlessly: "Did you think clearly in the past three days? If you can't take out the Gu worm from Liang Jiugong's body today, I will definitely take your head off!"

Tong Ying was taken aback, the emperor actually wanted to kill her?The emperor is really disappointed in her, right?

"Your Majesty, my concubines dare not speak in vain..."

"Okay, then quickly take out the Gu worms from Liang Jiugong's body." Kangxi was too lazy to listen to her nonsense, and urged after sitting down.

Ma Guan also came, and she just wanted to see how Tong promised to solve the situation.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Tong promised with a bitter smile, looked up at Liang Jiugong, and then began to activate the Gu worms.

Not long after, a crystal clear worm emerged from Liang Jiugong's palm. Liang Jiugong turned pale with fright, flipped his wrist and threw the worm on the ground.

Ma Guan suddenly opened his eyes wide, staring at the bug in disbelief, how is this possible? !

Could it be that her guess was wrong, Tong Xuren really didn't trick Concubine Hui?

She couldn't help but look at Concubine Hui, she was also surprised when she saw her, she probably didn't expect things to turn out like this.

Kangxi just picked up the teacup, and then slowly put it down when he saw this scene. Tong promised that he didn't lie this time?

"Your Majesty, the concubine has already taken out the Gu worm from Eunuch Liang's body. The concubine really did not deceive the emperor, and did not lay a gu on Concubine Hui. Please forgive me." Tong Xu's eyes turned red, and he cried aggrievedly. up.

"It seems that I have wronged you this time." Kangxi frowned, he saw the Gu worm come out of Liang Jiugong's palm with his own eyes, and he couldn't be wrong.

"Concubine Hui, have you still had a stomachache these few days?" He looked at Concubine Hui who was at the side again.

Concubine Hui said embarrassingly: "Back to the emperor, my concubine's stomach doesn't hurt these days."

Ma Guan gave Concubine Hui a strange look, always feeling that there was something wrong with it, but couldn't tell.

Kangxi nodded slightly, and said: "Since that's the case, this is the end of the matter. Tong promised, this time I wronged you and made you kneel for three days in vain. You should stay in the cold palace for three days less."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness." Tong promised to wipe away his tears, and happily kowtowed to thank him.

Although the emperor didn't say how long she would stay in the cold palace, but this time she left a good impression on the emperor, maybe there will be a day when she will come out again.

Kangxi was not interested, so he sent Tong Xu back to the cold palace and left.

"This is really strange. I didn't expect Tong to agree to make a comeback." Ma Yuan didn't rush to leave, it was really unexpected.

Although Tong promised to be sent back to the cold palace, the emperor still didn't want to see her, but this was a bad sign.This means that something is out of control.

Ma Guan couldn't figure out the reason, could it be that this was the plan Tong promised to set up?What's the matter with Concubine Ke Hui's stomachache?Apart from being infected by a Gu, she really couldn't think of a second possibility.

No, there may be a second possibility: Concubine Hui is pretending to be sick!

What is the purpose of pretending to be sick?In order to get the emperor's mercy?Or framed Tong promised to play a trick on her?

If it's the latter, it's impossible for Concubine Hui to be so stupid if it's clear that the goal has not been achieved?

"Yeah, I didn't expect that Tong promised to keep a hand. This person is really difficult to deal with." Concubine Hui showed a worried look, but there was not much anger or regret.

"Forget it, anyway, he's already been thrown into limbo, and he probably won't be able to get out in the future. My sister doesn't have to worry too much about her retaliation." Ma Yu comforted with a smile.

"I'm not afraid of her revenge, hmph, let's talk about it after she comes out first." Concubine Hui said disdainfully, and took Ma Guan's hand affectionately: "Let's not talk about her anymore, let's talk about tomorrow's flower viewing feast, you See where there is still room for improvement.”

"Okay." Ma Guan smiled, temporarily suppressing the doubts in his heart.

On the second day, the flower viewing banquet finally arrived. Concubine Hui and Concubine Yi put in a lot of effort this time. The tea and snacks they prepared were all related to flowers, which amazed everyone and praised them.

After Kangxi came, he even wrote a poem, which can be described as enjoyable.

After the flower viewing feast, the palace calmed down again, and the matter that Ma Yuan asked people to inquire about also came to fruition.

"That is to say, on the second day of the three-day period, Liang Jiugong went to Yanxi Palace?" Ma Guan looked at Zhu Yun, Zhu Yun found out about this, and the time has not passed a few days, so there should be no mistake.

"Yes, empress, and he only stayed for about a quarter of an hour before leaving. The servant really couldn't find out what he did." Zhu Yun was ashamed, and she couldn't complete the task that the empress ordered.

"It's fine if you can't find out. The most important thing is not to make people in Yanxi Palace suspicious." Ma Guan already had a guess in her heart.

"Your Majesty suspects that there is something wrong?" Zhu Yun secretly regretted after asking, how could he inquire about the Empress's affairs?

"There is a problem, but it may not be Eunuch Liang who has the problem, that's all right, you go down first." Ma Guan propped his chin and pondered for a while, the more he pondered, the more he felt that his guess was correct.

Concubine Hui and Tong Ying probably reached some kind of agreement, so that Tong Ying took out the Gu worm from Concubine Hui's body and transferred it to Liang Jiugong's body.

In other words, there were two Gu worms in Liang Jiugong's body that day, and the one he swallowed first was still in his body.

But what conditions can Tong promise to offer that even Concubine Hui can't refuse?

"Sure enough, there is no friendship in this harem, only interests." Ma Guan laughed at herself. If the guess is true, then Concubine Hui has betrayed their alliance, and even she has been deceived.

What kind of agreement between these two people, I am afraid it will take some time before it will be revealed.

As for whether my guess is right or not, I will naturally know after experimenting.

After a few days, when the situation subsided, Ma Guan found an opportunity to call Liang Jiugong to his palace.

"Eunuch Liang knows a lot. I want to inquire with Eunuch about the family visit. I don't know how my natal family is preparing?" Ma Guan really cares about this matter. People are like this. When they have expectations, they can't wait to realize them immediately.

"Your Majesty is absurd, and this old slave knows the fur. I heard that General Mighty has almost renovated the house, but the new garden is still in a hurry. It will be completed in a month or two. I will definitely be able to catch up with Your Majesty to go home to visit relatives." Yes." Liang Jiugong replied kindly.

"That's good. Ben Gong has been away from home for ten years, and I can't wait to go back and have a look." Ma Guan smiled, secretly thinking that Ah Ma's speed is really fast enough, and I don't know how many helpers he hired.

This infrastructure madman has existed since ancient times?

"Your Majesty will definitely get what you want."

"Well. By the way, there is another matter for me to find you today. Last time I saw you swallowed Gu worms, I couldn't bear it. I learned some methods of controlling Gu worms from Boolean. If you If you swallow it again, you can control it yourself."

As Ma Guan spoke, she asked Zhu Yun to fetch the written things and handed them to Liang Jiugong.

"You have to memorize this thing, just in case."

"Slave thank you for your kindness." Liang Jiugong was overjoyed, and quickly knelt down to thank her.

The last time he swallowed the Gu worm, he almost spit it out without feeling disgusted. This thing left a psychological shadow on him. Even though it came out of his hand that day, he still felt weak.

If you learn this method and you can control Gu worms yourself in the future, then you don't have to be afraid.

"Get up." Ma Yuan waved her hand indifferently.

"Your servant will definitely study hard." Liang Jiugong folded the pieces of paper like a baby, and put them in his clothes.

"Well, it's okay to retreat first."

"The slave retire."

Liang Jiugong left happily, and when he returned to Qianqing Palace, seeing that the emperor had nothing to call, he took out the paper and looked at it carefully.The content is not complicated, and he barely mastered it after studying for half an hour, so he simply gave it a try.

This attempt was terrible, he actually sensed a strange connection with himself, Liang Jiugong was immediately frightened.This feeling is too strange, as if there is still something in the body.

Liang Jiugong is also considered a courageous person, after all, he stayed by Kangxi's side for many years, accompanying a king like a tiger, and the timid can't do it.

So after calming down, he tried again, and the feeling became more obvious.

This time Liang Jiugong felt it, the thing seemed to be in his heart, and he could still direct it.

"Could it be that there is a Gu worm in our body? Who planted it for our family?" Liang Jiugong was shocked and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly went to look at the paper Ma Guan gave him.

Fortunately, the last page actually wrote the method of detoxification.

Liang Jiugong tried it tremblingly, commanding the Gu worms to come out, and soon felt that the Gu worms were moving.

The worm traveled all the way along the meridians, passed through the arm and slowly came to the palm of the hand, and finally got out.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." Liang Jiugong exclaimed, suppressing his nausea and trotting into Xinuang Pavilion with the bug in his hand, still clutching the few pages of paper.

"In a panic, what does it look like?" Kangxi was reviewing the memorial when he was interrupted by Liang Jiugong's sound, and he frowned displeasedly.

This fellow is also an old man in the palace, how could he be so ignorant of the rules?

Liang Jiugong smiled wryly, but he kept his mouth shut, but his steps became faster.

After entering the Xinuang Pavilion, he saluted first, but the posture seemed so strange, Kangxi became more and more dissatisfied.

"What are you holding in that hand?"

"Your Majesty, this, this is a Gu worm..." Liang Jiugong took two steps forward, as if he was afraid of frightening the Emperor, he quickly backed away.

"Gu insect? Where did the Gu insect come from?" Kangxi looked surprised and put down the pen in his hand.

Liang Jiugong replied bitterly: "It came out of the slave's body, Your Majesty, there is more than one Gu worm in the slave's body... Thanks to the virtue and noble concubine who gave the old slave a way to command the Gu worm, otherwise..."

"Stop, why is Concubine Degui involved again?" Kangxi was confused when he heard that, the Gu worms on Liang Jiugong's body, didn't Tong promised to relieve them a few days ago, and got out?

Liang Jiugong took a deep breath, and had no choice but to tell the previous things, Kangxi's expression became serious.

"You mean, there are actually two Gu worms in your body, one came out before, and another came out just now? And this method of controlling Gu was taught by Concubine Degui?" Kangxi finally cleared his mind.

"The emperor is wise." Liang Jiugong flattered him.

"But you swallowed one that day, why are there two in your body? Could it be that the Gu worm gave birth to another one in your body?"

"This Gu worm is born so quickly? Your Majesty, do you think there will still be in the slave's body?" Liang Jiugong was about to cry, this thing is really disgusting.

Kangxi pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "Go and invite Concubine Degui, she may know a thing or two about this matter."

Otherwise, Liang Jiugong would not be given a way to control Gu for no reason.

"Hey." Liang Jiugong led the order to retreat, and when he walked to the door, he remembered that he was still holding the Gu worm. This thing must not be lost, so he asked a little eunuch to keep it.

That little eunuch looks like he's about to cry, how disgusting it is.

Not long after, Ma Guan came over with Liang Jiugong. Although Liang Jiugong didn't tell her what was going on in detail, she more or less guessed it.

"The concubine has met the emperor, and I don't know why the emperor has sent the concubine to come here?" Ma Yu bowed respectfully, and glanced at the table, where she saw the few pages she had given to Liang Jiugong.

"Liang Jiugong said that you gave him a few pages before, which recorded the method of controlling Gu?" Kangxi had already read those pages, so he asked straight to the point.

"It turns out that what the emperor said is this. These few pages were indeed given to Eunuch Liang by his concubine. Before Eunuch Liang swallowed Gu worms, which made his concubine feel admirable. Just in case, this concubine told Boolean about it." The method of controlling Gu was written to Eunuch Liang. In this way, if Eunuch Liang encounters this situation again in the future, he doesn’t have to worry.”

In fact, Ma Guan wrote not only the method of controlling Gu, but also the method of getting rid of Gu insects.In this way, it becomes more real.

Kangxi nodded, and sighed: "Your method saved this slave's life. He tried it according to the above, and found that there is a Gu worm in his body, here."

"Mrs. Degui Concubine, this is it." Liang Jiugong asked the little eunuch to come forward, and the little eunuch really had a worm lying in his palm.

"Is this impossible?" Ma Guan's face flashed with astonishment: "How did Eunuch Liang make it?"

"It was commanded to come out according to the method given by the empress. The servant felt that it was crawling along the servant's arm, crawling all the way to the palm of the hand, and then got out." Now it was Liang Jiugong's turn to be surprised. Isn't this method Did the empress give it to you?Why is the empress curious?

"That's not right." Ma Guan shook his head and said confusedly: "Unless the worms that can be taken out like this are females, the larvae are absolutely impossible to take out like this. Eunuch Liang, when did you swallow a female worm?" insect?"

"Ah?" Liang Jiugong was stunned, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of it: "The servant doesn't know either."

Ma Guan frowned: "That day Tong promised to direct the Gu worms in your body to come out, which means that what you are taking is worms, but where did the mother worms come from?"

"This..." Liang Jiugong looked confused, looked at Ma Guan, then at Kangxi, and suddenly knelt down on the ground: "Your Majesty, this Gu worm was not brought by the slave, and the slave never gave others a Gu!" ah!"

Kangxi glared at him, and said coldly: "If you say that, I really want to doubt you!"

"Your Majesty, I really don't have any servants. If my servants do this, I would like to be struck by thunder!" Liang Jiugong was about to cry, and quickly swore to the sky.

"Okay, get up, I didn't suspect you. If you really put a Gu on someone, you wouldn't reveal that there is a Gu worm in your body right now." Kangxi shook his head helplessly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is wise." Liang Jiugong heaved a sigh of relief, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Hmph, in my opinion, this matter will still fall on Tong Xu's head. I suspected that there was something wrong with it before, but that day a worm did get out of your body, and I dispelled my doubts. From this point of view, it must be her What method was used, and a second one was placed in your body."

Kangxi quickly guessed the truth, if it was true, Tong promised that he would never be able to stay, and actually lied to him time and time again.

Liang Jiugong's eyes changed slightly, and he suddenly said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this servant remembered that on the second day of the three-day period, Yanxi Palace suddenly sent someone to invite this servant, saying that Concubine Hui has something to discuss. The servant dare not not go."

"Oh? Concubine Hui asked you to go? What did you do?" Kangxi frowned, his expression not very good-looking.

"Back to the emperor, Concubine Hui just asked about the flower viewing banquet, when the emperor will be there, and if there is any snack you want to eat. The slave thought that Concubine Hui wanted to please the emperor, so he mentioned a few words, and the rest Didn't do anything."

"Have you ever eaten there?" Maru asked.

Liang Jiugong thought for a while before answering: "The servant only drank half a cup of tea, and the rest didn't eat anything."

He was shocked: "Could it be that Gu worm is in the tea?"

But he couldn't understand, why did Concubine Hui play a trick on him?He never expected that Concubine Hui would be involved in this matter.

"Concubine Hui..." Kangxi snorted softly, his mind was spinning, and he had almost guessed the truth. "Concubine Hui may have been poisoned before, but later reached an agreement with Tong Ying, so Tong promised to help her relieve the Gu. And this Gu was swallowed by you again, so that's why it happened that day. Get out of your body."

"And this female worm is the one you swallowed first! This Tong promised to be meticulous."

Liang Jiugong opened his mouth, but he didn't dare to speak anymore. This was related to Concubine Hui.

"I didn't expect Concubine Hui to help Tong promise to deceive me, it's unforgivable!" Kangxi slapped the table, obviously angry.

"Your Majesty, this is just speculation, maybe it's not like this at all..."

"Did you guess it a long time ago, so you gave Liang Jiugong the way to control Gu?"

Before Ma Guan could finish speaking, Kangxi interrupted him, pointing to the core of the problem.

"The emperor really thinks highly of my concubine." Ma Guan smiled helplessly, and said calmly: "If this concubine knew about it a long time ago, she would have given Eunuch Liang the method of controlling Gu... Well, this concubine is just There is some speculation, and I want Eunuch Liang to verify it, anyway, there is no harm."

Kangxi glared at her, he knew it was not easy.

However, interrogating Concubine Hui and Tong Xu in this way, I am afraid that neither of them will confess.

He looked at Ma Guan, said with a smile: "You have a quick mind, quickly think of a way for me to figure this out thoroughly."

"Isn't the emperor embarrassing my concubine?"

"I'm going to make it difficult for you. Do you think that taking care of the harem is just talking?"

Maru: "..."

After a while, Ma Yu said: "The concubine has thought of a way, but it needs the cooperation of the emperor, and sister Huifei may suffer a bit."
