Hearing Lü Ping take the initiative to mention her face, Feng Yu Heng directly asked: "How did your face heal?"
Lü Ping looked at her, her hand constantly rubbing her face, after a while, she said: "Originally, there was a Gu worm inside, no prescription could cure it. As for why it healed, I am not sure either, it seemed to have happened overnight. Before I slept, the wound was still fierce, but when I woke up, it healed completely. I heard that the person who raised the Gu worm died, so the Gu poison naturally faded away. It sounds very mystical, isn't it? "
"Yes." Feng Yu Heng nodded, she had to admit, "It is indeed very mystical. Do you know who put the Gu in you back then? Was it Gu Shu's seventh princess? " Thinking of the palace banquet back then, only Gu Shu's seventh princess was in the capital, and she seemed to be quite close to Lu Family.
But Lü Ping said: "It shouldn't be her, if Gu Shu's seventh princess died, there would definitely be news from Dashun. When you went to the Southern Border to fight, didn't you not hear of Gu Shu's royal family having a funeral? " She pondered for a while and said, "That Seventh Princess is of noble descent and doesn't look like someone who raises Gu. If I'm not wrong, that Gu worm was indeed brought by her, but it was raised by someone else for her. She is a princess, and also the princess of Gu Shu, it is normal for her to have one or two Gu Masters behind her. "
Feng Yu Heng looked at her and suddenly asked: "You have a lot of understanding towards Gu?"
Lü Ping was a smart person, hearing Feng Yu Heng's question, she immediately guessed her purpose in coming here today. "Princess wants to understand Gu techniques?" She shrugged, "Unfortunately, I will have to disappoint you. My understanding of Gu started from the worm on my face, but I do not know much, I only know that Gu are mostly worms, and some use snakes. There were only two ways to get rid of the Gu poison. One was for the person who raised the Gu poison to get rid of it. The other was for the person who raised the Gu poison to die, and the other person's Gu poison would naturally be removed. However, there were exceptions. For example, the Death Gu, which was the kind of Gu that had no cure. It could not be cured no matter what. There is also another type of Gu that follows the death of the person who raised the Gu, and the person who was implanted with the Gu also dies. This type of Gu is mostly used on the heart and lungs, but I'm lucky, the Gu worm is only on my face. "
Lü Ping said everything she knew about Gu in one breath. Then she said sincerely to Feng Yu Heng: "Wang Fei has done me a great favor. If I know anything, I will tell you everything. However, it was very difficult to find out more about Gu. When the Lu Family realized that the thing on their faces was a Gu worm, they had thought of many methods. They had even begged the seventh princess of Gu Shu. Unfortunately, the matter did not succeed. Later on, the Lu Family had a falling out with the Eighth Prince and cut off all contact with Gu Shu. It was even more difficult to find out more about this. Fortunately, my face has already healed, so the Lu Family did not persist. That's why up until now, I only know this much about Gu. "
Feng Yu Heng knew that everything she said was the truth. She did not have high hopes of being able to find out too much valuable information from Lü Ping. Being able to hear this was already good. She nodded and said to Lü Ping: "Thank you."
Lü Ping quickly said: "I did not help much. Wang Fei does not need to thank me." She cleverly did not ask Feng Yu Heng why she was asking about Gu. She only said: "I really hope to help Wang Fei a bit more. Unfortunately, my abilities are limited."
Feng Yu Heng knew that her abilities were limited, so she did not stay in the manor any longer. As for directly asking about Gu, she was not afraid that Lü Ping would speak about it because she believed that Lü Ping was a smart person and would not speak about it.
When they left the manor, Lü Ping personally sent them off. The Lu Family's head madam and the Ge Clan members were also at her side. The Ge Clan looked like they really wanted to keep Feng Yu Heng for a bit longer. They kept sending meaningful looks to Lü Ping, but Lü Ping acted like she did not understand at all. She only focused on sending Feng Yu Heng to the imperial carriage.
Only when Feng Yu Heng's imperial carriage was far away did the Ge Clan finally say in disappointment: "Esteemed guests finally came. Why did you not ask them to stay a bit longer? It's almost noon. If they could stay for lunch, our family's relationship with the Imperial Palace Yu would be much closer! " After saying this, she took a step back in disgust and covered her nose with her hand. It was clear that she did not like the fragrance on Lü Ping's body.
Lü Ping looked at the Ge Clan with an incomprehensible expression. She said: "She is a Wang Fei and a Junzhu. How can our family entertain her? Lunch is easy to say. Mother, do you know the rules for entertaining a Wang Fei for lunch? Is it too late to prepare now? "
This sentence made the Ge Clan speechless. That's right! Entertaining a Wang Fei could not be done casually unless their relationship was very good. But the relationship between the Lu Family and Feng Yu Heng was clearly not that good. In fact, it could not even be considered good. At most, they were just enemies that had reconciled slightly. When she thought of this relationship, she felt very awkward, but she did not want to be scolded by Lü Ping, thus she added: "At the very least, you should accompany her outside for a stroll. Eating something in a restaurant is also good. I heard that Royal Consort Yu and her friends would often go out to eat. Why can't you mingle in that circle? Ping, you're not young anymore. You should think a bit more about the family. "
Lü Ping furrowed her brow and stood in place. The more she looked at the Ge Clan, the more disgusted she felt. Ever since she was young, she knew that she was very beautiful from the moment she could remember. She had also watched the Lu Family use one daughter after another as chess pieces to realize their plans. From Lu Yao to Lu Yan, they had lost a daughter in one scheme. They had even lost their only son. But even if this was the case, was the Lu Family still unwilling to give up? She asked the Ge Clan: "Must you wait until all of the Lu Family's children have lost their lives before you're willing to give up? Can't you live your lives properly? Must you cling to the powerful? Father is already the left prime minister. What else does he want to be? "
"What sort of words are you saying?" The Ge Clan was filled with anger and wanted to fiercely scold Lü Ping, but Lü Ping's earlier words had hurt her. The Lu Family had lost a daughter in one scheme, and this included her own daughter! The Ge Clan thought, could it be that they had made a mistake from the very beginning? If the Lu Family did not make use of this opportunity, her Yan 'er would not have died … …
The Ge Clan was a little dazed. Lü Ping had no intention of speaking with her. Turning around, she left. Right before leaving, she said: "Even if I wanted to accompany Royal Consort Yu to eat, she would not want to see me. As my mother to the first wife, you would cover your nose when you get close to me, much less Royal Consort Yu! "
After returning from the Lu manor, Xuan Tianming also returned to the manor. She told him about what she had heard from Lü Ping regarding Gu. After she finished speaking, the two looked at each other and sighed. The information from Lü Ping was not too valuable. In order to save Emperor Tianwu, they would have to rely on themselves.
Feng Yu Heng told Xuan Tianming about her plan: "Tonight, I will go to the palace by myself. The main reason is to go to Consort Li's Zhang Ning Palace to investigate. Of course, Consort Yuanshu also needs to be investigated. If there is time, I will go and take a look together. These two people are the biggest suspects. Sooner or later, we will have to find out the truth. "
"I will go with you." Xuan Tianming was worried that she would go to the palace by herself.
Feng Yu Heng shook her head: "It's okay. At most, I will hide in the space. No one will be able to find me. Yesterday, you said that Imperial Father has changed his personal eunuch. Did you find out where Zhang Yuan is? "
Xuan Tianming nodded, "There is no need to investigate. The news has been spread all over the palace. Zhang Yuan was framed by Consort Yuanshu. The old man hit him thirty times and in two days, he will be thrown into the Department of Guilty Servants. I estimate that the little eunuch's body will not be able to withstand this torture. If you see him when you enter the palace, give him some medicine! Don't let him suffer too much. "
"Imperial Father even hit Zhang Yuan?" She almost did not dare to believe it. For a long time, that little eunuch Zhang Yuan and Emperor Tianwu got along so well that it made people wonder if the two were gay. She never thought that Tianwu would one day hit even Zhang Yuan, and it was for Consort Yuanshu. She couldn't help but feel a bit angry. She said: "Consort Yuanshu doesn't just want to monopolize the harem. It seems like she has already begun to pave the way for her son to succeed the throne. Just watch, there will soon be a large scale change in the palace. Those who are an eyesore to Consort Yuanshu and the Eighth Prince will be eradicated one by one. "
"Yes." Xuan Tianming said: "So we have to move quickly. Before they make a move, we have to save as many as we can. Also … … "Worry appeared on his face," Saving others is not the ultimate goal. The ultimate goal is to temporarily control Consort Yuanshu and the Eighth Brother's development. This is to prevent them from taking action against the old man after they have eradicated most of the people. After all, if the Eighth Brother wants to succeed the throne, it is impossible for the old man to still be alive. "
Both of them were aware of this crisis. Moreover, it wasn't just the two of them. Almost everyone clearly understood the Eighth Prince's next step. It could be said that the "royalists" and the Ninth Prince's faction were now racing against time. They were engaged in a tug-of-war with the Eighth Prince's faction. They wanted to delay this change in the palace as much as possible so that they could think of a way to reverse the situation during this period of time.
Xuan Tianming said to Feng Yu Heng: "We couldn't send Grandfather into the palace. The palace has imposed a palace ban. Except for the courtiers who attend morning court, no one is allowed to enter or leave the palace without permission, including you." He said: "Now, even if you wanted to enter the palace openly, it would be impossible."
"No one protested?" She was puzzled. "What about Tiange? Can Tiange enter the palace? And Feiyu, he came back from Xiaozhou ahead of time. Can he enter the palace to see his imperial grandfather? "
Xuan Tianming shook his head. "He can't. It's not that no one has protested, but it's useless. This palace ban was imposed by the old man. On the surface, it has nothing to do with the Eighth Brother. His Majesty has spoken, so the courtiers can't go against him. Besides, he's only preventing irrelevant people from entering the palace. What can they say to refute him? As for Tiange and Feiyu, they can't enter the palace. These are the imperial family's affairs. Outsiders can't interfere. "
"If this continues, Imperial Father's situation will be too dangerous." Feng Yu Heng was very worried. "Consort Yuanshu is always hogging Imperial Father. It's difficult for me to check his pulse. If it really doesn't work, I can only sit in the main hall and listen to their conversation. When they fall asleep, I'll go over." She rolled her eyes. How could a daughter-in-law sit in the room and listen to her husband's conversation? "Forget it, forget it." She waved her hand. "Let's go to the palace tonight. I hope we can find some clues."
They had no other choice. Xuan Tianming also pinned his hopes on Feng Yu Heng and the others. Whether it was Consort Li or Consort Yuanshu, as long as they could find some clues, it would be better than not having any breakthrough at all.
Finally, under the moonless and windy night, a petite figure dressed in black appeared from time to time and ran in the direction of the imperial palace. However, on this night, nobody could have imagined what Feng Yu Heng would see in the palace …
