Chapter 230 Shadow Guard
Hua Yan was the name given by Lin Yushu. It didn’t sound like poison, but it was stranger than any poison.
Anyone who takes Hua Yan will begin to suffer from abdominal festering after a while.
After a stick of incense, all the internal organs in the chest and abdomen turned into blood and the whole person seemed to be hollowed out, turning into a bag of flesh and skin.
But from the surface, the person's skin is not damaged at all, and is even white and rosy. The face will be more lively and rosy than before death, like a healthy person with full blood.
Only when the body is taken away for autopsy will it be discovered that all the internal organs have disappeared.
What Lin Yushu likes most is that the poisoned person will remain conscious while his internal organs turn into blood, and will endure tremendous heart-wrenching pain while he is conscious.
Lin Yushu was lost in thought as she stared at Hua Yan in front of her. In terms of cruelty, she and Nan Rongjing were really similar.
She became like this after being brutally murdered by Nan Huaishuo and Lin Qingrou in her previous life, while Nan Rongjing was tortured into this state by the poison in his body.
Only those who have experienced similar pain can sympathize with each other and cherish the hard-earned peaceful and happy life.
Therefore, she did not plan to send this poison to Changshengpu and Baicaotang for sale. After her revenge was achieved and her life returned to normal, Hua Yan would disappear from the world.
She will also destroy the unique poisons she developed, just like in her previous life, she will let them be deposited deep in her memory and never touch them again.
But now, Hua Yan is still useful.
At this moment, Leng Dai gently called Lin Yushu from outside the window.
"Miss, there is news from Mo Shi."
Lin Yushu closed the medicine jar, opened the door and walked out. Before Nan Rongjing went to Youzhou, she left half of the shadow guards for her to use. He took part of the remaining half, and the rest stayed in Prince Jin's Mansion and the Yulin Guard.
Although Lin Yushu promised Nan Rongjing not to take the initiative to deal with Nan Huaishuo, necessary preventive measures are still necessary.
She arranged several shadow guards to monitor Nan Huaishuo's every move, and even Lin Yushu arranged people for the officials of the Eastern Palace and Nan Huaishuo's subordinates.
As long as they have any abnormal behavior, the shadow guard will report it to Mo Shi.
"what's up?"
"The shadow guards stationed in the Fifth Prince's horse farm to raise horses discovered that the Fifth Prince had sealed off a low room in the carriage where tools were stored, and no one was allowed to approach it at any time of day or night."
"The shadow guard secretly saw a man in a black robe with half his face covered in the middle of the night. He seemed to be a guest of the mansion. He and the fifth prince and the fifth prince's wife sneaked into the low room. Not long after, the woman's shrill and terrified cries were heard from the low room."
"But since there was no cover like trees near the low house, the shadow guards were afraid that if they got too close they would be discovered by the secret guards in the mansion, so they didn't know what exactly happened in the low house."
Lin Yushu fell into deep thought after hearing this, and two things caught her attention.
The first thing was the ability of the shadow guards in Nan Rongjing's hands. In the past few days, she discovered that these shadow guards, whether in terms of secret reconnaissance ability, martial arts skills, or even numbers, far exceeded the secret guards of Nan Huaishuo that she had seen in her previous life.
The secret guards are all trained since childhood, and Nan Rongjing has nearly a hundred shadow guards under his command, most of whom are older than Nan Rongjing.
So, where did these shadow guards come from? She would definitely ask when Nan Rongjing came back.
The second thing is Nan Huaishuo’s behavior. The man in black robe is most likely the mysterious Gu breeder who appeared beside Nan Huaishuo. This person did not appear in the previous life, or maybe he appeared but was not as valued by Nan Huaishuo as in this life.
Lin Yushu didn't know who he was, but she was sure that he must be from the East Witch Kingdom.
Then his target is most likely the gold-eating Gu.
Fortunately, Lin Yushu has the Poison Book. She doesn't know the mysterious man, but she knows Nan Huaishuo. In addition, the Poison Book records various poisons, so it is not impossible for her to infer the meaning behind their actions.
Lin Yushu turned and walked towards the study, took out the Poison Sutra and began to flip through it page by page.
In fact, Lin Yushu could already recite the contents of the Poison Sutra by heart, but every time she encountered a difficult problem, she still chose to read the Poison Sutra page by page to search for the answer.
Half an hour passed, then an hour passed.
Lin Yushu was completely immersed in the Poison Sutra and even forgot the time.
Just as she was about to turn over another page, Lin Yushu's hand suddenly stopped in mid-air, and then she flipped it back abruptly.
The corners of his mouth, which had been tense for a while, finally revealed a smile.
found it!
On the yellowed paper, there is a detailed introduction in official script to a kind of Gu - the drunken Gu.
There is a sentence written in an inconspicuous place at the bottom, which says that in order to successfully cast a drunken spell, one needs a human heart as a guide, especially a woman's heart.
The next step is how to use Yangxin Pills to obtain a qualified medicine guide.
With shock and fear?
It seems that Lin Qingrou has not had a good time recently.
Lin Yushu gently closed the Poison Scripture, and she understood clearly that the Drunken Gu was similar to the Hooking Heart Powder she made in her previous life.
They can all kill people quietly, without leaving any traces on the corpse.
This is not an effect that ordinary poisons can achieve. If you want to kill someone, the poison may be extremely toxic, destroying the internal organs like a deadly dry tree or rotten wood, or it may poison a person slowly and silently. By the time the symptoms appear, the poisoning is already serious and no medicine can cure it.
But no matter which situation it is, it will leave traces of poisoning on the human body. Most of the poisons can be detected by silver needles, and a small number of poisons that cannot be detected with silver can also be detected by experienced coroners.
There are only a very few poisons that are completely undetectable, including Lin Yushu’s homemade Hook Heart Powder and the Dongwu Kingdom’s Drunkenness Gu.
Nan Huaishuo took great pains to secretly refine the drunkenness poison, even risking the life of his own wife, so his goal is obvious.
Lin Yushu looked at the jar of Hua Yan in the pharmacy, and a brilliant idea emerged in her mind...
-
Five days later, in the imperial study.
Emperor Ming lowered his eyes and looked at the inner guard leader He Yu who was kneeling in front of him with a tired look. Although Emperor Ming always attached the greatest importance to the royal face and royal dignity, he never showed his fatigue in front of court officials.
If a male lion shows that he is unable to cope with the situation in front of a pride, he will lose the pride in an instant.
But since Nan Heying's rebellion, Emperor Ming was greatly shocked and became physically weak due to shock and anger.
Even though he took ginseng and bird's nest every day, Emperor Ming, who was nearly fifty years old, still looked obviously aged.
He Yu lowered his head and dared not look directly at Emperor Ming, his palms were full of sweat due to nervousness.
"Can you say that again?"
"I have discovered that there are many more secret guards guarding the Prince of Jin's mansion for no reason. The internal guards can no longer monitor the Prince of Jin as usual. In addition, the old man of the Shen family goes to the Prince of Jin's mansion every day to treat the Prince of Jin. And the guards who always stay with the Prince of Jin, such as the guard leader Mu Shang, have all gone to the Yulin Guard Station..."
"So, so I think that the Prince of Jin may be critically ill!"
