Lu Tao quickly came out and closed the door: "Why is the prince here?"
"I have something to do with my sister." Jiang Yuanhan came back to his senses, but his voice was a little hoarse.
The scene just now was reappearing in my mind.
Lu Tao was secretly angry. Why didn't anyone tell the prince that the princess was taking a bath
However, she did not dare to show any dissatisfaction on her face, and said apologetically: "The princess was too tired and fell asleep while taking a bath."
"Then, I'll come back later." Jiang Yuanhan turned to leave.
But he didn't expect Wen Qingzhu's voice to come from inside the room: "No, I'm already awake and will come out later."
Lu Tao pointed to the table outside: "Please take a seat over there, Prince. I'll go and wait on the Princess."
"Yes." Jiang Yuanhan turned around and walked out. Listening to the sound of water inside, his sister stood up from the pool.
An urge to turn back suddenly arose in his heart, but his reason allowed him to restrain it.
Going over to sit down, Jiang Yuanhan felt that time passed extremely slowly.
Not long after, Wen Qingzhu changed his clothes and came out, his hair hanging down like this, and the hair on his forehead was still wet.
She sat opposite Jiang Yuanhan, poured him a cup of tea, and poured herself a cup of tea: "What's the emergency?"
Jiang Yuanhan raised his eyes and saw Wen Qingzhu's pink cheeks and eyes full of moisture, and his body suddenly became hot.
He was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, avoided looking at his sister, and said, "It's Lu Lei. He said that he found Master Hu's cousin encountered a corpse-eating insect. Fortunately, he met him and rescued Hu Jian in time. Come down."
"Hu Jian?" Wen Qingzhu looked up and narrowed his eyes.
Jiang Yuanhan felt his heart skip a beat when he heard his sister's voice, and his thoughts drifted away.
He tried his best to restrain himself: "Well, Dr. Gan had secretly distributed the method of dealing with corpse-eating insects before. Only Wei Yuchiyu and others knew that Lu Lei was familiar with corpse-eating insects because he had been to Dingyuan when he was a child. There is a way."
Wen Qingzhu stood up: "I'm going out to see Hu Jian."
"I'll go with my sister!" Jiang Yuanhan stood up immediately. Corpse-eating insects are not a simple matter.
Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "Your safety is the most important thing now. Nothing should happen to you."
Facing her, Jiang Yuanhan couldn't give a reason to refute.
Wen Qingzhu quickly left the palace and went directly to Lu Lei to ask about the situation.
After Lu Lei finished speaking, Wen Qingzhu stared at him and asked, "Did you send Hu Jian to the Tai Hospital?"
"Well, Dr. Gan said that he needs to study it. Hu Jian has already encountered the corpse-eating insect, but only one arm is stiff. This is very strange."
Lu Lei explained, but Wen Qingzhu felt more and more wrong: "Wait! Didn't you save Hu Jian and give him a chance to survive?"
Lu Lei shook his head: "No, when I found him, he was running out of the back door of an inn, stumbling, his face was purple, and I stepped forward to stop the spread of poison for him."
"What about that inn?" Wen Qingzhu felt something was wrong and things seemed to have become complicated.
Lu Lei pointed to the southwest of the capital and said: "The inn has been sealed off. I sent people to investigate. Several people died inside, but most of them are fine."
"Continue your investigation, there must be Huns in that inn! The day after tomorrow is the enthronement ceremony, so nothing happens, understand?" Wen Qingzhu looked at him.
Lu Lei nodded and sent Wen Qingzhu off respectfully.
After returning to the palace, Wen Qingzhu rushed directly to the Imperial Hospital.
Sure enough, we saw Hu Jian, but he was a little miserable. He was stripped naked and placed on the stage, and was watched by a group of people headed by Dr. Gan.
When Wen Qingzhu appeared at the door, Angelica was the first to notice him.
"Why is the princess here?"
"Come to see what's going on with Hu Jian?" Wen Qingzhu walked in.
Angelica hurriedly stepped forward to stop her: "Princess, wait! It's better not to go over there yet. Dr. Gan wants to study Mr. Hu's body. No, no clothes."
Wen Qingzhu laughed: "When I came in just now, I saw his radiantly white belly and legs. Just find a piece of cloth for him to cover his key parts. I just want to see how this person got killed by corpse-eating insects." If you get bitten, can you still survive?”
Seeing that she insisted on doing this, Angelica had no choice but to go over and do it.
The group of people surrounding Hu Jian immediately stepped aside. Wen Qingzhu walked over and found that Hu Jian was shaking with fear, and his fat body was trembling.
He looked at the visitor with a pale face: "King, princess..."
Wen Qingzhu narrowed his eyes and looked at him: "Master Hu really doesn't make people worry. I remember that Master Hu said he wanted to lock you up at home?"
"Princess, spare your life! The common people are just greedy and sneaked out. They specially found an inn far away from the palace, but I didn't expect to encounter such a thing."
Hu Jian burst into tears immediately, making everyone feel sad and full of contempt.
Wen Qingzhu ignored his nonsense and looked at his stiff right arm and found that there was a little light yellow powder left on his wrist.
She pointed at the powder and asked, "What is this? It doesn't look like corpse-eating insects left traces."
Dr. Gan came over and explained: "The reason why the corpse-eating insects did not continue to bite was because this unknown powder stopped them. I am analyzing what this powder is."
"Can this powder stop corpse-eating insects?" Wen Qingzhu was surprised and looked at Hu Jian's body carefully.
He casually took out a silver needle and slowly stuck it into the powder.
I found that there was no change in the silver needle.
She pulled out the silver needle again and stuck it on Hu Jian's arm. The pain made him gasp.
Hearing that Hu Jian was still feeling something, Wen Qingzhu looked up.
Hu Jian quickly apologized and said, "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt."
Wen Qingzhu looked at him with a smile: "If it doesn't hurt, the sooner you cut off this arm, the better, so as not to affect your whole body."
Suddenly, Hu Jian's face turned pale again, and he quickly shouted: "It hurts, it hurts!"
His voice was like killing a pig, forcing everyone in the hospital to take a step back.
At this time, someone came in from outside to report that it was Hu Yingzhuo who wanted to see him.
Wen Qingzhu handed Hu Jian to Dr. Gan, then went to an unoccupied room and asked someone to bring Hu Yingzhuo over.
As soon as he entered the door, Hu Yingzhuo immediately knelt down and said, "Princess, please punish me. I didn't supervise my subordinates strictly and caused trouble to the princess!"
Wen Qingzhu raised his hand and said, "Master Hu, please get up. Hu Jian is not causing trouble this time."
Hu Yingzhuo immediately raised his head, with fear on his face: "It is against etiquette and law to go out and eat and drink during the national mourning period."
"Since Hu Jian took a risk and discovered something outrageous, I will make up for it for the time being. I will not pursue this matter."
Seeing Wen Qingzhu say this, Hu Yingzhuo stood up nervously, but still did not dare to sit down.
Wen Qingzhu did not force him, and only said: "You don't have to worry, Hu Jian will be blessed if he survives this disaster, and he may even be able to make great contributions."
"I don't dare to expect meritorious service. I just hope that the princess and the prince will not pursue my cousin's fault." Hu Yingzhuo closed his eyes and wished he could grab Hu Jian immediately and throw him back to the south of the Yangtze River!
Ever since he came to the capital, one incident after another almost made him vomit blood.
Wen Qingzhu saw that he was still worried, so he comforted and reassured him again and again. He also said, "Hu Jian will stay in the Imperial Hospital for the time being. When the Huns spy is caught, I will send him back safely."
Hu Yingzhuo felt bad when he heard the word "Xiongnu spy".
This time this unlucky boy actually pretended to be a Huns spy.
But now that the matter had come to this, and with Wen Qingzhu's guarantee, Hu Yingzhuo had no choice but to retreat.
When leaving the palace, he accidentally met Mr. Zhu who came out of the palace together.
Master Zhu's face was full of exhaustion, and he looked like a dying old man, even though he was an old man himself.
Hu Yingzhuo was hesitating whether to say hello to him.
After all, Mr. Zhu is the superior, although not his superior.
Master Zhu saw him in advance: "Master Hu? Why are you here?"
He looked around and saw that this was still the palace.
Except for people from the Ministry of Rites, Zongzheng Temple and Taichang Temple, even Pei Yu would not be still in the palace at this time.
Hu Yingzhuo just turned around and said, "It turns out to be Mr. Zhu, disrespectful and disrespectful. It was Xiaguan's cousin who committed something, and Xiaguan came to the palace to plead guilty."
"Your cousin?" Mr. Zhu didn't quite understand. Who is Hu Yingzhuo's cousin? "
Hu Yingzhuo didn't explain it, but Mr. Zhu suddenly opened his eyes wide: "Is it your cousin Hu Jian from Jiangnan?"
"Oh, yes." Hu Yingzhuo couldn't hide it now.
Master Zhu suddenly stopped laughing, patted his shoulder and said: "Master Hu, Master Hu, tell me that you did a good job in the Ministry of Etiquette back then, but because you had to wipe the butt of your own brother, you took the initiative to transfer to the household. You have to do hard work, but fortunately Master He is also a kind person and doesn't make things difficult for you."
After a pause, Mr. Zhu's expression dropped again: "Who am I to say that to you? I myself also took one wrong step. Fortunately, I didn't make the wrong mistake safely. It's just that you are either your own brother holding you back or your cousin holding you back." You're a hindrance, you've been working in the Ministry of Accounts for almost ten years, no matter what, sir, you have no hope of promotion, hey... "
Hu Yingzhuo looked at Mr. Zhu carefully and was a little surprised. It seemed that the Minister of Rites had also surrendered to the princess
Thinking of this, he decided to take the initiative to show his kindness and vomited his bitterness half-heartedly: "That's right, but with these younger brothers, there is nothing we can do..."
The two of them just walked out of the palace while talking.
Wen Qingzhu couldn't find anything at the Tai Hospital for the time being, but the traces of Huns spies in the capital were becoming more and more obvious, so she had to discuss it with Yuan Han Haosheng.
So she left the Imperial Hospital and went directly to the East Palace.
As a result, Aunt Zhang in the East Palace said that the prince was in the mourning hall.
Wen Qingzhu had no choice but to turn around and go to the mourning hall, but when he passed the entrance of Qianyuan Palace, he found the small prescription inside.
She immediately turned around and went in, approached Xiao Fangzi and asked, "Where is the prince?"
When Xiao Fangzi saw the person, he was startled: "Wang, Princess? Why are you here?"
"I'm looking for the prince, where is he?" Wen Qingzhu glanced at the side hall and saw that the light at the door of the side hall was on.
She turned around and walked that way. Xiao Fangzi wanted to stop her, but he had no excuse at all, so he had to follow her quickly.
Arriving at the side hall, Wen Qingzhu walked to the door and saw that the lights in the room were all dark.
I felt very strange: Could it be that he fell asleep
Wen Qingzhu knocked on the door tentatively.
Boom, boom, boom.
Jiang Yuanhan was sitting on the bed in the room, holding a book in his hand and two luminous pearls beside him to illuminate it.
He turned around suddenly and was about to ask, but Wen Qingzhu's voice came from outside: "Yuanhan? Are you asleep?"
Jiang Yuanhan was startled, quickly stuffed the book under his pillow, stood up and opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, Wen Qingzhu saw that he had taken off his shirt and looked up at the room: "Are you really asleep?"
"Sister, what do you want from me?" Jiang Yuanhan lowered his eyes slightly, not daring to look directly at Wen Qingzhu.
