Farmers have children to raise

Chapter 525 Gu Insect
Mothers who have just given birth are almost always busy from morning to night because they have to take care of their children.

But Baochun is not, even though he has two children, he is still a leisurely person.

There are many adults in the palace, but there are not many children.

The two little ones added this time immediately became fun toys in the palace. Except for breastfeeding and returning to Baochun, the adults in the mansion scrambled to hold them for the rest of the time.

The third son Zhou Tianxin was holding was snatched away by his grandfather.

Although Miss Zhou was tough, she was so brave in front of the old prince, she put her hands up, walked to Baochun depressedly, picked up the strawberries on the table and ate them.

Baochun, who was sitting on the couch basking in the sun, looked at her, "Is the child fun?"

Zhou Tianxin puffed her cheeks and nodded fiercely, "It's fun, it's so fun, it's soft and cute, and it laughs when you tease them. Small hands and feet are all small, and they kick randomly. cute……"

Baochun said, "If you like it, give birth to one yourself."

Zhou Tianxin curled her lips, "Do you think it's a hen laying eggs? She gave birth to her as soon as she said she was going to give birth. I haven't even been able to get married. Who are you going to give birth to?"

"There are ready-made ones." The old princess put a plate of snacks on the table.

"Who is it?" Zhou Tianxin's eyes lit up when he saw the dim sum, he swallowed the strawberry in his mouth, and reached out to grab the dim sum.

The old concubine stabbed her in the head angrily, "Play me stupid, your master has told me that you want to arrange your marriage, and it happens that your brother is also here, so I will discuss marriage with him sometime another day."

"Married?" Zhou Tianxin almost choked on the dim sum, "When did I say I was married to him?"

"Does it need to be said?" The old concubine glared at her, "Your husband has a concubine in love..."

Zhou Tianxin was very ashamed and annoyed, "Whoever has an affair with another man or a concubine, you are mistaken."

The old concubine said, "I've misjudged, Baochun, tell me, have I misjudged my vision?"

Baochun smiled, "Mother has sharp eyes, how could she miss her? Don't resist any more, just go with it."

Zhou Tianxin waved his hand, "No nonsense, don't talk nonsense."

The old concubine and Baochun were laughing everywhere.

"Laugh still, don't laugh, if you laugh again, I'll make the princess cry." Miss Zhou threatened fiercely with her face flushed.

The old concubine gave her a white look, "Look at how promising you are, if you don't mess with her, she has already cried endlessly, and she still needs you."

"The surname Xu is here." Miss Zhou suddenly looked in the direction of the courtyard gate.

Baochun looked over, and the person following Rong Zheng was indeed our Master Xu Shangshu.

"Why are you here?" Miss Zhou crossed her chest and looked at him, "Aren't you investigating the disappearance case? How did you find out?"

"Just find out." Xu Wenshao frowned and sighed.

"Is something wrong?" Miss Zhou pulled a stool for him.

Xu Wenshao nodded.

Seeing that they had something to discuss, the old princess got up and said, "I'll go and see the children, don't let them sit in the sun for too long."

Baochun sat up, opened the cups on the table, poured water for several people, and handed a cup of water to Rong Zheng, "What happened?"

Rong Zheng took the cup, "Let him talk."

"Is it related to me?" Baochun was sensitively aware of something.

"It should be the emperor." Xu Wenshao put down his cup.

"Your Majesty? Madam's father, what's the matter with him?" Miss Zhou frowned, "If I remember correctly, it will soon be the annual worship ceremony again. The emperor must be very busy. .”

Xu Wenshao nodded, "You're right, that's exactly why I came here."

Baochun looked at Xu Wenshao.

Xu Wenshao sighed, "The disappearance case has been investigated for so long and there has been no progress. Those people in the rivers and lakes are still missing, but in the morning, the person who followed the case reported to me that someone saw the disappearance. people."

"Where is it?" Miss Zhou asked.

"Daguo Temple." Xu Wenshao said.

"What did Daguo Temple do?" Miss Zhou shook her head, "It's impossible. Daguo Temple is known as the first temple in the Great Rong Dynasty, and it has always been known as the Temple of Zhenguo. How could they do such a thing?"

Xu Wenshao said, "You have such a temper, who said they did it? Wait for me to finish my sentence?"

"Should I just say it?" Miss Zhou said, "You say it, you continue."

Xu Wenshao went on to say, "Someone sneaked into the Daguo Temple and was dragged out..."

Baochun said, "They are the missing people."

Xu Wenshao said, "That's right, it's exactly the same as the one on the portrait."

"Appeared in Daguo Temple, what do they want?" Miss Zhou rubbed her chin in thought.

"Where are people?" Baochun asked.

"It's already dead." Xu Wenshao said, "After being caught out, these people resisted fiercely, and their skills were extremely high, and their lethality was extremely powerful. , These people seem to have undergone some kind of training, after being restrained by Master Xuanyin, they bleed to death from their seven orifices."

Miss Zhou swallowed, "These people in the Jianghu are used to being free, and they seldom obey others, let alone commit suicide like this."

"How many people?" Baochun asked.

"There are two people who were caught out." Xu Wenshao said, "Master Xuanyin is already conducting a thorough investigation. After all, the worship ceremony is held at Daguo Temple."

"You suspect that these people are targeting the emperor." Baochun thought for a while and said.

"Otherwise, what are they doing in Daguo Temple?" Xu Wenshao asked back.

Baochun nodded, "It seems that I can only think so."

"Therefore, the matter is of great importance. I don't know how many people are hiding in the dark. Before they find out, they can't take risks, let alone risk the life of the emperor."

Baochun understood Xu Wenshao's intention, "You want me to enter the palace to persuade the emperor to cancel the ceremony?"

Xu Wenshao said, "The minister has tried to persuade him, but he just doesn't listen. You are the only one who can persuade him."

Baochun shook his head, "It's useless for me to persuade you. It's easy to talk about other things, but it's not good for the worship ceremony. This is related to the prosperity of the country and the people in the coming year, and it is even more related to the prestige of the royal family. I can't persuade you."

"Master Xuanyin said the same thing." Xu Wenshao said, "By the way, the master also asked me to send a message that if you have time, go and check the corpse."

"What did senior brother find on the corpse?" Bao Chun hurriedly asked.

Xu Wenshao shook his head, "Master didn't say anything, he just gave you the possibility to take a look."

Baochun thought for a while and said, "That's what senior brother said, it's very likely that he found something strange about the corpse, it's not too late, let's go now."

Just as he was about to tell the person beside him, the person spoke first, "I have asked someone to get the carriage ready."

Baochun didn't plan to take the children with him, so he left after feeding the children.

The four came to Daguo Temple, and Xuanyin greeted them out of the door in person.

The brothers and sisters chatted for a few words, then went straight to the point, and led him to the place where the corpses were stored.

Due to the special nature of the case, the bodies of the two men had not yet been transported to the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

On the way, Master Xuanyin explained in detail how he captured these two people, and their excellent kung fu, basically the same as what Xu Wenshao said.

Baochun asked his brother, "Has Master come back yet?"

Xuan Yin shook his head and sighed, "It would be great if the old master was here, so he can know what these people want to do."

It's time to speak.

Xuanyin ordered someone to open the door.

The corpse was covered with a white cloth, and Xu Wenshao stepped forward to lift the white cloth.

In fact, there is no need to lift the white cloth, Baochun has already seen it clearly.

Xuan Yin said, "As soon as the poor monk restrained him, his eyes, ears, and mouth were filled with blood."

Baochun walked to the corpse, took out a silver needle, and after a few fiddles with it, a white soft thing, the size of a pearl, emerged from the corner of the eye.

Xu Wenshao and Miss Zhou gasped, and asked in unison, "What is this?"

Baochun shook his head and looked at his senior brother, "I don't know this thing either, but I think it should be what caused this person's death."

Miss Zhou swallowed, "It looks disgusting."

Xuan Yin looked at it for a long time, "It looks like a kind of Gu insect."

"Gu worm?" Bao Chun was surprised.

"Actually, I haven't seen it either." Xuan Yin said, "The Da Rong Dynasty rarely appears, and most of these evil sects are in the south."

Miss Zhou said, "Isn't that princess Han Xiao from Beiwu good at these crooked and disgusting things? Could it be that she's not dead?"

Rong Zheng also looked at Baochun.

Baochun said, "Impossible, I saw her die with my own eyes, unless the person who died that day was faked by someone else."

Miss Zhou said, "It's not impossible, the son of Chu Nan can still transform into someone else."

Baochun was very certain, "Appearance and body can be illusory, but human emotions cannot be illusory. Since we fought her, we have never seen her use Gu. They are all poisonous poisons or poisonous snakes."

Miss Zhou thought for a while, "It seems so."

Rong Zheng said, "It seems that these missing people were captured and controlled by Gu."

Several people couldn't help but tremble.

"Who is that?" Xu Wenshao frowned.

"It must be right for those who have evil intentions." Miss Zhou said.

Rong Zheng said, "It's not just about evil intentions, it is very likely that there is a huge conspiracy hidden. First, the map of the temple, then the disappearance of people in the Jianghu, and then the murder case in the temple. Is there any connection between these, and what kind of connection?"

Baochun said, "If we figure out the connection between these, maybe we will be able to know what they are going to do."

Xu Wenshao said, "Currently the most imminent thing is the worship ceremony, and what needs to be guarded against most is that they will assassinate the emperor."

Xuan Yin said, "That's right, the emperor's temper, the decision cannot be changed, and he will not cancel it just because he is afraid of being assassinated."

Baochun said, "How long until the grand ceremony?"

Xuan Yin said, "There are still three days."

"Three days, it's obviously not easy to find out the clues in three days." Baochun thought for a while, "Otherwise, Mr. Xu will continue to investigate, and senior brother will continue to prepare for the ceremony. Accompany the escort."

"That's fine." Xuan Yin said.

When they went back, none of them smiled, and their hearts were quite heavy.

Xu Wenshao said solemnly, "It's not something ordinary people can do to catch and control these masters without anyone noticing. I always feel that something big is about to happen."

Back at the palace, Rong Zheng went to find his father.

Baochun returned to the courtyard, the old concubine looked at her, and asked cautiously, "Are you all right?"

The old concubine is not a woman who doesn't understand anything, and Baochun didn't hide anything. He briefly explained what he found in Daguo Temple, and told him, "The capital city is very disturbed these days. Mother, it's best not to go out."

The old concubine nodded cautiously, "It's too scary, I'm not going anywhere, I'll just stay home and look after the children."
