Both Emperor Shengyuan and the Queen Mother were shocked.

??The Queen Mother pointed at Aunt Sun: "Go and see what's going on!"

?? Aunt Sun trembled and walked to the bed curtain, only took a look, then opened her eyes wide in horror. If she hadn't been calm and restrained by the deep palace for many years, she would have screamed on the spot.

??The Queen Mother's expression changed several times, and she looked at Yuan Ruyin who fell to the ground in shock and anger: "You...you tell the Ai family, where is the great-grandson of the Ai family!"

?? Yuan Ruyin's complexion was pale.

??Su Wenqing squatted down slowly, and also looked at his wife who had been with him for many years with a kind of shock, astonishment, and vaguely strange eyes.

"Ruyin, what's going on? You know the truth, right?"

?? Yuan Ruyin's fingers on the ground trembled violently.

??"No!"

?? She looked up suddenly, her pale face was covered with tears.

"Wen Qing, believe me, I, I really don't know how this happened, Hong'er, Hong'er was lying there just fine, how could he suddenly become such a... monster. It must be that The demon monk, it must be the demon monk who used the demon method."

??Master Qingyuan slowly recited the Buddha's name.

"Princess, put down the butcher's knife and turn your head. Ordinary illusions are just 'turning a stone into a spirit', using appearances to confuse people, but this sorcery uses human life as a sacrifice to satisfy one's selfish desires. Such a disregard for the laws of nature and human relations. Aren't you afraid of retribution?"

?? Yuan Ruyin was shocked.

??Then grabbed Su Wenqing's sleeve even tighter, and begged: "Wenqing, trust me."

??Su Wenqing smiled wryly.

"Ru Yin, you are like this when you lie, your left hand always clenched into a fist."

??Yuan Ruyin subconsciously glanced at her left hand hanging by her side, and then released it like an electric shock.

??"you……"

?? "You and I have been married for more than 20 years, is there anyone who knows you better than me?"

??The bitterness at the corner of Su Wenqing's mouth turned into sorrow, and she closed her eyes in pain. "Actually, during this period of time, I have already discovered that you are not very energetic. It is hateful. I am busy with official duties every day, so I didn't notice it early."

?? Yuan Ruyin burst into tears: "No, Wenqing, things are not what you think."

??Su Wenqing said bitterly: "Then tell me, what happened to the baby?"

??Yuan Ruyin bit her lower lip hard, refusing to speak.

??Emperor Sheng Yuan stood in front of the bed tent for a moment, and asked Master Qingyuan: "What does the method of 'sacrifice' that Master just mentioned mean?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, this is actually a kind of sorcery that feeds the dead with the essence of the living. It is a kind of Gu art, but it does not use insects as Gu, but humans as Gu. The specific method is to use Yin Gu Plant it into a living baby, and plant Yang Gu into a dead baby. Once the Yin-Yang Gu reacts, the Yin Gu will absorb the essence of the living baby and feed it back to the dead baby. When enough essence is absorbed, the dead baby will die And "resurrection", the original living baby will lose its essence and die. The dead baby that is successfully "resurrected" needs to continuously suck fresh essence to maintain life. Once the food is cut off, it will suffer fierce backlash. It is possible to wither overnight. This is why the baby on the bed is only three months old, but the corpse looks like a baby that has been dead for half a year."

"But the master just said that the baby in this tent is not the eldest grandson of the emperor."

?? "Exactly."

??Master Qingyuan sighed, showing compassion: "If the poor monk's predictions are correct, the 'Emperor's eldest grandson' was born as a stillborn baby. The baby in front of me is just wearing the emperor's eldest grandson's skin and sucking the essence of a newborn child. It's just a 'King of Gu' for living. Newborn children's desire for life is often stronger than that of adults. If they are forcibly sucked by others, they will have strong resentment, and this resentment will enter the dead baby's body together with the essence , even if the dead baby comes back from the dead, it is still a 'heavenly evil thing' full of resentment."

?? Emperor Sheng Yuan frowned.

??Yuan Ruyin walked to the Empress Dowager's feet, crying: "I beg my mother to believe in my son this time, my son has always been timid and fearful, and the queen mother knows best about his usual temperament. My son is a weak woman. Where did you come from?" Learn these sorcery? Honger ended up today, how could he know that he was not murdered by an adulterer? Just relying on a non-existent witchcraft, he was going to convict his son, but he refused to accept. The son begged his mother to make decisions for him, Hong'er is in charge!"

??Yuan Ruyin kowtowed heavily and fell to the ground, her forehead blushing.

?? Su Wenqing finally couldn't bear it, and said in the past: "Ruyin—"

??Yuan Ruyin looked up sadly: "Wen Qing, can you help me beg for my mother? I have been lonely since I was a child and have no one to rely on. The only person I can rely on in this life is my mother besides you."

?? "Don't worry, no matter what happens, I will not abandon you."

??Recalling the acquaintance between the two, Su Wenqing felt a sense of desolation with a strong sense of fate in his heart.

??He Su Wenqing is not an ungrateful person. In his whole life, he will never forget that when he was at his worst, it was the woman in front of him. Regardless of her own safety, she hid him in her boudoir and took care of him meticulously.until he regained his eyesight.

??The moment he opened his eyes, she fell into his eyes like a frightened shadow. She was weak, but she had a tough beauty of her own.From then on, he made up his mind that he would not let her down and let her be wronged in this life.

"It's just, Ruyin, I'm not only your husband, but also the prime minister, you must tell me the truth, does Hong'er's matter have anything to do with you?"

?? Su Wenqing looked straight into Yuan Ruyin's eyes.

??Yuan Ruyin's face was pale, and she clenched her fingers tightly. Just as she was about to speak, someone outside said loudly, "Xiao Ji, deputy commander of the imperial guards, please see Your Majesty."

?? Emperor Shengyuan said: "Come in."

??A sturdy man in armor, about 30 years old, came in, saluted, and respectfully presented the item in his hand: "Your Majesty, this is what I found from the residence of Princess Yunshan in the Su Mansion under the order of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. .”

??The emperor was ill and temporarily handed over the jurisdiction of the imperial guards to Yuanli.

??The emperor was not surprised. He glanced at the thing and asked, "What is this?"

?? It was a pitch-black porcelain pot with a strange red seal on it, and a line of exotic characters was written on the seal.

??Xiao Jidao: "According to my judgment, it is similar to 'Xueyin'."

??The empress dowager looked shocked: "Xue Yin?"

?? For this word, anyone who has experienced the horrific witchcraft case back then will be familiar with it.Xueyin, which is used to feed Gu worms, is said to be made from the most poisonous parts of 36 kinds of most poisonous things. It is the most yin and poisonous thing in the world. darling.

??Xiao gently tore off a corner of the seal, and a strong stench immediately permeated the hall.

??The Queen Mother could hardly stand still.

??The Emperor Sheng Yuan waved his hands and ordered Xiao Ji to put away his things, and looked at Yuan Ruyin who was kneeling on the ground again: "What else do you have to say?"

?? "This is framed! This is framed!"

??Yuan Ruyin screamed at the top of his lungs.

?? Su Wenqing looked at his mad wife sadly and painfully, suddenly lifted his robe, and knelt down facing Emperor Shengyuan.

?? "Your Majesty, Wen Qing is willing to bear all the crimes for his wife and children. Wen Qing is willing to use his position as Prime Minister to exchange for a chance to forgive her sins. I hope Your Majesty will make it happen!"

??He kowtowed heavily, knelt down on the ground, and couldn't get up for a long time.

??Yuan Ruyin froze suddenly, turned around, and looked at her husband in disbelief: "Wen Qing, what nonsense are you talking about...how can you give up your career!"

?? "Ruyin."

?? Su Wenqing shook his head: "The Skynet is extensive and sparse. It is still too late to turn around now. Fame and fortune are nothing more than a passing cloud. As we agreed at the beginning, it is not good for you and me to find a paradise and be an ordinary commoner." Is it?"

?? "Of course not!"

??A hearty and bright voice came from outside the hall, interrupting Su Wenqing's words.

??Su Wenqing looked up, and saw Princess Wei, wearing a purple dress and a golden walk on her head, Shi Shiran walked in from outside.

?? "Like a mirror?"

??The Queen Mother frowned: "What are you doing here?"

?? "The son has seen the queen mother."

??Princess Wei Guochang saluted the Queen Mother, but did not answer this question. Instead, she walked up to Su Wenqing step by step, arrogantly, and looked down at the man.

?? Said: "I don't allow it, you ruin your future for this woman."

??The distance between the two was close, and Su Wenqing faintly smelled a faint fragrance, which was a body fragrance that only belonged to women. He suddenly felt that this smell was somewhat familiar.

??Completely different from his wife's weakness and pitifulness, this eldest princess is known for being unruly and domineering.It is said that in order to avenge her husband Qi Guogong, who sleeps with flowers and sleeps with willows, this eldest princess blatantly raised many male pets in her own villa, and her reputation was extremely bad.

??Su Wenqing looked blankly at Princess Wei Guochang.

?? "The subject and the eldest princess have never met before, this is a matter of the subject's family, and no one else needs to intervene."

??Princess Wei Guochang sneered.

?? "If you are not too stupid, do you think that this palace is willing to meddle in your business?"

??The tone was too intimate and natural, and Su Wenya was slightly displeased: "I don't seem to be familiar with the Eldest Princess, I hope the Eldest Princess speaks carefully."

?? "Unfamiliar?"

??Princess Wei Guochang chewed on this word, and suddenly leaned over and pinched Su Wenqing's chin: "Back then, when you held Bengong's hand and kept calling your mother, and begged Bengong to make you plum soup in the middle of the night, you didn't say anything about it. I am not familiar with this palace."

?? Su Wenqing was startled, and then his expression changed suddenly.

?? "This matter... is a private matter between the minister and his wife. How would the eldest princess know?"

?? This is obviously what he said when he was recuperating from his injuries, because he was unconscious due to fever, and he was in a state of confusion and took Ruyin's hands by the bedside to take care of him.

??Princess Wei Guochang was full of sarcasm.

"You should ask your good wife, does she dare to admit this private affair with you?"

??Su Wenqing didn't understand the meaning of these words for a while, subconsciously looked at Yuan Ruyin beside her, Yuan Ruyin's whole face was pale without a trace of blood, but she just tightly grasped Su Wenqing's arm, as if grasping the last straw, Keep shaking your head.

"It's okay if you don't open your mouth. Why don't we go to the imperial dining room and make a cup of green plum soup for Su Qing to taste, but it still tastes like the old days? Plums in Huainan Road are harvesting right now. .”

??Princess Wei Guochang said slowly.

??Su Wenqing's face was drained of blood.

?? "Huainan Road... Plum..."

?? "You... how do you know?"

?? He once again looked at Princess Wei Guochang in a daze.

??For a while, many paintings rolled into my mind. For example, he is a southerner, his ancestral home is Huainan Road, he has been married for many years, and his wife, who has always been virtuous and gentle and responsive to his requests, has never cooked plum soup from his hometown for him again. That bowl, the plum soup that woke him up from his coma.

??The wife always excuses her by saying she is unfamiliar with her skills, but he loves her so he can't bear to keep pestering her.But when I think about it now, I suddenly feel that this matter is full of strangeness.

?? Princess Wei Yingying smiled and said: "What? Su Qing wants me to explain to you in detail, how about the plum soup?"

??The author has something to say: I am too sleepy, I will return the home game to Prince Yangyang tomorrow
