Lin Chuyue stared at the crowd. She didn't know what these brats were thinking.
"Eldest Miss, Eldest Miss, it's bad!"
Outside of the Lin's Medicine Hall, Liu Er immediately patted her chest and gasped for breath as she squatted on the ground, "Big, big, young miss, it's bad!"
Liu Er realized that she was completely a crow now, otherwise, every time something bad would have to happen, she would be the one to pass on the message.
Seeing Liu Er like that, Lin Chuyue helped her up, "What happened?"
"Eldest Miss, there's a plague outside the capital. Many people have been infected by it overnight."
Liu Er's words caused everyone in the Lin's Medicine Hall to be stunned.
What did it mean that there was a plague outside the capital?
"Aiya, just come with me and you'll know."
Liu Er ran in front, Yuwen Yi stayed behind and watched as Lin Chuyue, Wang Feng and the others followed behind Liu Er and ran towards the city gate.
By the time they reached the city gates, the gates were already closed and no one was allowed in or out.
"What is going on?"
Lin Chuyue asked the city guards, and coincidentally, that year, the guards saw Lin Chuyue kneeling on the ground. When I returned to the Prince's Wife, there were suddenly hundreds of people there last night. These hundreds of people all had serious injuries, and I wanted to tell them to leave, but they stayed the whole night, and when the day came, they rushed up like a swarm of bees. "
The guard described the situation and could not help but swallow his saliva in fear.
"All the normal people who were touched by those hundred people became powerless. Dozens of people had already died."
Hearing the soldier's words, Lin Chuyue frowned. You have done well, do your best to isolate those 100 people and prevent them from entering the city. "
"Yes, Prince's Wife."
The guard did not expect to be praised by Lin Chuyue. He had originally thought that this woman would take revenge on him for what happened previously, "Watch out for me. If anyone comes in, kill them."
"Yes."
"Wang Feng, bring some people to get some Heavenly Soul Pill from Yuwen Yi. Liu Er, come back with me. I'm going to the Imperial Palace."
"Yes, Eldest Miss."
Everyone dispersed according to Lin Chuyue's orders, and Lin Chuyue headed towards the palace.
In the carriage, Lin Chuyue was frowning as she recalled the symptoms the guards described.
Infectious, weak limbs, high mortality, rapid onset.
It didn't look like a plague, but more like poison!
Inside the imperial palace, Lin Chuyue was walking out of the imperial study in large strides when she met Feng Tianjin halfway.
"Chu Yue, why are you rushing into the palace?"
Seeing Feng Tianjin, Lin Chuyue blessed herself, "Second Prince, you should know about what happened outside the city, have you investigated the background of those people?"
Feng Tianjin raised his eyebrows, looked at Lin Chuyue's expression, and slowly exhaled, "Your Highness has also heard that those hundred people had festered after explaining their appearances, but no one knows of their identities. They only gathered outside the city gates last night."
The reason why Lin Chuyue was so anxious was not because of anything else, but because he had encountered this poison before in her previous life's Yan Kingdom.
It was an ancient poison that required the use of the blood of a thousand people to nourish the Gu, then feed it all the poisonous insects and herbs.
Such a heartless method, if the poison spread, the entire Hua Kingdom city would be affected.
"Does Yueyue know about that poison?"
"It's Gu poison."
Three years ago, this parasite poison had exploded out once in the Yan Kingdom, and many people had died at that time. Only later on did they find a way to expel the parasite poison, thus preventing a calamity.
Now, he was discovered outside the city of Hua Kingdom.
"Second Prince, you should go back and bathe in brine. After that, you should use some of the insect repellent herbs in the house. Remember where you cannot go to the city gate." After repeatedly admonishing Feng Tianjin, Lin Chuyue missed her chance and ran towards the imperial study room.
Inside the imperial study room, the emperor and Feng Yan were discussing countermeasures, although there were many things that Feng Yi could take Feng Yan's troops the moment he had the chance, or even eliminate him.
But in regards to the matters of the nation, Feng Yi was clear that his little brother here had no selfish motives. If not, his own position would not have been taken so calmly.
"What do you think?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, Miss Lin wishes to seek an audience."
"Yes."
Understood, Lin Chuyue entered the imperial study and bowed to Feng Yi, then walked to Feng Yan's side.
"Why is Yue Er here?" Pulling Lin Chuyue's hand and sitting on his chest, Feng Yan looked at the woman in his embrace with a doting look on his face, "Why don't you rest a bit more?"
"I also want to rest, but now is not the time."
Shrugging her shoulders, Lin Chuyue looked at Feng Yan. "Feng Yan, tell me everything you know, this poison can't be isolated."
"Gu poison? Looks like the mastermind behind this is truly Brahma Sound Island. "
Feng Yan's words caused Lin Chuyue to be slightly startled, "You mean that the poison was administered by the Brahma Sound Island?"
In that case, the eruption of the parasite poison three years ago was also a masterpiece of Brahma Sound Island!
Wait —
Lin Chuyue seemed to have thought of something. Three years ago, it was precisely the time Lin Xian'er had faked her death, and also the time the poison had exploded.
And now, with Lin Xian'er's body within the Imperial Palace of Hua, the parasite poison had once again invaded Yun Che's body and the young master of the Brahma Sound Island, Situ Wuyu, was now in the capital.
"All of this is related to Lin Xian'er. Three years ago, the Yan Kingdom's parasite poison broke out, and three years later, the Gu man outside the city gates was the key point in all of this is Lin Xian'er."
After finding the place where the barrier was located, Lin Chuyue squinted her eyes.
Three years ago, the reason why the insect poison outbreak occurred was to cover up the fact that Lin Xian'er had faked her death.
And today, there was no need to even mention the purpose of the Brahma Sound Island, as it was for the treasure map.
"Your majesty, may I ask if the Hegemony Treasury Treasure Map is in your hands?"
"So what if he is in my hands?"
Feng Yi could hear the conversation between Lin Chuyue and Feng Yan clearly. Although he did not know how the little girl knew about the outbreak of the Yan Kingdom's poison three years ago, he only understood one thing.
Three years ago, although the matter of the Yan Kingdom Insect Poison having erupted had caused many deaths and injuries, it had sealed off all available information. If not for the fact that a spy had reported the news to them, it was likely that even the monarchs of various nations would not have known the truth.
On the other hand, what this little girl knew far exceeded his imagination.
"I want to see Batian."
"This is my written edict. You can enter and leave the Imperial Palace anywhere."
A plate fell into Lin Chuyue's hands, she looked at the gold badge in her hands, then frowned: If I sell this, how much is it worth?
"—"
Hearing Lin Chuyue's words, the face of this certain emperor darkened.
