Shen Zhongbai didn't want to let himself continue to investigate, and he thought repeatedly at the time that the fire must be man-made, which led him to set up such a ten-day military order with himself. If he didn't find this matter within ten days, If he is the real culprit, he will definitely be the one who loses his head.
How could Gao Qi not worry about this matter, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't find any clues except that he could prove that if Mars flew over, it would be impossible to burn this pile of wood.
Gao Qi would inevitably feel a little disappointed, but at this time, he had no other way. After thinking about Lou Mingyue who was still left alone by him, he decided to go back to the place where Lou Mingyue was locked up early, so as not to take advantage of him. While he was away, he continued to abuse his body. If something unexpected happened, the emperor would not spare him.
After Gao Qi left, Lou Mingyue carefully thought about many ways, but there were really few ways to get out as soon as possible, and now it seems that these ideas are not very practical. After all, this is In the palace, no matter how good your kung fu is, you may not be able to escape the guards of the numerous imperial guards.
What's more, after being corroded by poison for so many days, my internal strength seems to be much worse than before. I don't know if there will be a way to recover after I go out, but it seems that I can't escape by myself. out.
What's more, Gao Qi, who has been guarding him, is ultimately stubborn and refuses to relax his supervision, making it seem like he is really a prisoner. However, he doesn't know what mistake he has made. , and I don’t dare to do anything too extreme to myself, as this will make me feel even more uncomfortable.
After all, it is not an option to always be like this. His current scope of activities is only limited to such a small area. It is really inappropriate for him, and he has no way to communicate with outsiders.
All you can do is be careful about the things around you.
Lou Mingyue looked at the food in front of her. She knew it was poisonous, but she couldn't arouse others' suspicion and wanted to maintain her physical strength. What should she do
Lou Mingyue has been focusing entirely on martial arts training since he was a child. He knows absolutely nothing about medical skills. In addition, he is simply a prodigy in martial arts. From the beginning to the end, he has not suffered any major injuries. For ordinary skin injuries, he only needs to be bandaged casually, and he has never been poisoned. Now thinking about it, maybe it is because his father has been secretly protecting him, so his affairs have gone so smoothly. Bar.
Lou Mingyue lowered her head, but at this time, she couldn't go back. I'm afraid my father didn't know that he had fallen into Shen Zhongbai's hands, right? He is still continuing to perform his duties loyally and guarding the frontier.
"What an old fool. If this continues, it seems that the lives of both father and son will not be saved."
After all, Lou Mingyue has not left the palace for a long time. She doesn't understand what is going on outside. Naturally, she doesn't know that her father has secretly arrived in Kyoto from Leping County. The next thing should be easier to solve. But he was trapped in the palace and didn't even know where he was trapped. How could he cooperate with them inside and outside? He could only wait for them to realize that he was imprisoned and then save him.
Gao Qi couldn't suppress the frustration on his face at all. When he walked into Lou Mingyue's residence, he didn't say a word. However, he couldn't help but frown when he saw the untouched food on his table.
"Your Highness, are you determined to threaten us by not eating or drinking?" Gao Qi didn't find any clues about today's matter. He was already in a irritable mood, and now he has to face Lou Mingyue again. , I have always been a soft-spoken person, and seeing the person in front of me seem to want to use this to threaten myself, I became even more angry.
"not at all."
Although Lou Mingyue's physical condition is no longer as good as before, her head is still clear at least. Seeing that Gao Qi is in a good mood now, she really doesn't want to offend him.
"It's just that the weather is too hot and I don't have much appetite. If you think it's a waste, you can eat it yourself instead of putting it in front of me."
Lou Mingyue knew that if she showed now that she had noticed something wrong with the food, Shen Zhongbai would probably find another way to poison himself soon. If that was the case, it would be better to take advantage of them while they were away. Dispose of the food secretly, so that he will think that he is still trapped in his trap and will not think of other ways to deal with him.
Lou Mingyue raised her eyes slightly and looked at Gao Qi's reaction across from him. Seeing that he seemed to have something on his mind and didn't want to care about her at all, he felt relieved. Gao Qi was also a Jin Yiwei after all, unlike him. Although the generals around him were rough men, he was definitely a thoughtful person. Otherwise, he would not have been able to stay with Shen Zhongbai for such a long time.
"It's up to you. As long as no one's life is involved, the Emperor probably won't say anything more."
Gao Qi had never thought that Lou Mingyue would be tampered with in the meals he ate every day, so he had never been on guard. Since Lou Mingyue didn't seem to want to eat these things, there was no need to force him. He is a grown man and should not have any problems if he doesn't eat for a few days.
"You don't seem to be in a very good mood. Did something happen?" Lou Mingyue is also idle now. Rather than the two of them continuing to argue endlessly about who threatens whom, it would be better to get rid of it earlier. Breaking out of this problem and talking about something else would make both of them feel more relaxed.
"It's nothing, it's just that there was a big fire in the palace a few days ago. Everyone in the palace said it was because of the dry weather, but I felt that if it wasn't man-made, there shouldn't be such a big fire. But after I talked to the emperor, , the emperor actually got angry, now the sweet deadline is almost up, and I still haven’t found any clues to prove that someone set the fire deliberately, it seems that I am really going to be punished by the emperor.”
Gao Qi didn't hide too much from Lou Mingyue in this aspect. After all, he actually knew it in his heart. If there were still no clues about this matter until now, it was probably a certainty, and he probably had no chance to escape. Gotta get over it.
"There's a fire..." Lou Mingyue thought for a moment, and it seemed that it was the same thing before. She already knew it. This matter must be related to the person she bumped into that day, but did she know? Regarding the specific situation, I still haven’t told anyone what I know.
"It seems that there is no room for change in this matter. If this is the case, there is no need for me to worry about this matter anymore."
Young Master Lou Mingyue nodded, "Okay, then you can handle it yourself." His current physical condition is really not suitable for worrying about anything else. It is best to go back to rest earlier to save some energy and avoid exhaustion. gained physical strength.
Gao Qi looked at the food Lou Mingyue left on the table and frowned slightly. Lou Mingyue had not eaten for so many days. There must be some reason. He could not threaten them with a hunger strike for no reason. , What's more, Lou Mingyue has been normal the past few days. There is no reason for him to think of using such a method to threaten after being imprisoned for so many days. Gao Qi always felt that something was wrong, so he took the A plate of food and went to Tai Hospital.
Gao Qi is not that slow. Lou Mingyue suddenly refused to eat. There must be something wrong here. If someone is really causing trouble, he will never allow it. After all, this is his own territory. If It's not good to let others take other people's lives for nothing.
After all, Gao Qi has been working in the palace for so many years. In this palace, there are more or less connections of his own. The imperial doctor in the imperial hospital must be on good terms with him. He didn't even think about it. I found the old doctor I had always trusted.
"Master Zhong, look at this meal, is there any problem?" Gao Qi didn't want Lou Mingyue to have any accidents during his watch, so he was always very concerned about this matter, even if he was very concerned about it. He was about to be punished by the emperor because he couldn't find the real culprit of the arson, but he still had to do things within his responsibilities.
The old doctor obviously didn't understand what Gao Qi meant by bringing this plate of food, but he still followed his instructions and took out his silver needle and tried it a little. He found that nothing poisonous was found in the food on the plate. There were traces of it, but he felt something was wrong, "When was this meal served? Why does it look like a long time has passed?"
Indeed, after the old doctor said this, Gao Qi also took a look at the plate of dishes placed on the table. Even if the weather is a bit hot now, it should not be like this after only leaving it for half an afternoon.
Gao Qi was a little confused by this question, "When? This is the meal that was just prepared at noon today. How come it has been left out for several days?"
Because the person he had to watch over this time had a special status, he was the Prince of Leping County, so he was careful about everything he did. Even when cooking, he personally sent his most trusted person to watch over him. In theory, he should There won't be any problem. The people in the imperial kitchen didn't dare to fool them with the food from the previous night. How could it be the food from a long time ago
