Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

Chapter 541: Tricky



At a table somewhere in the palace, an official looked forward and murmured: "Your Majesty's favor towards Mr. Xiao Tang has reached such an extent. That is a seat that only the royal family can sit in..."

The colleague next to him took a sip of wine and said, "If you were as capable as Mr. Tang, His Majesty would love you so much."

The official shook his head and said: "This is naturally impossible. I just need to do my job well. How can I be as proficient in everything as Mr. Tang..."

He looked forward and couldn't help but said: "Not to mention, Mr. Xiao Tang and the princess are sitting together, they look quite suitable..."

"It's a perfect match." Another person nodded and said, "One is a savior and the other is a broom star. It's a perfect match. If they get together, who can defeat whom?"

"I think Mr. Tang is even more powerful. He has been to so many yamen and has never met a single opponent."

"The princess is not a vegetarian. She defeated the eldest young master of the Tang family and even the crown prince of the Chu Kingdom. I still think the princess is better..."

……

The two gossiped quietly, each holding their own opinions, but they only treated it as a joke. After all, even if Tangning was favored by the Holy Family, she already had three wives and concubines, so there was no way she could be with the princess. It is impossible for the royal family to watch something like this happen. Even if His Majesty dies, the new emperor will not agree. If the new emperor agrees, the clan will not agree either...

If the two of them want to be together openly, they will have to die unless the state of Chen is destroyed.

One of them looked at the two people who were sitting next to each other. They seemed to be a perfect match, like a golden boy and a beautiful girl. He sighed leisurely, "What a pity..."

In front of the table at the front, Tang Ning took a piece of pastry and looked at Zhao Man, who was sitting upright with her hands holding her skirt tightly underneath. She whispered, "You don't have to be so nervous. Just be more natural. You're too nervous." Otherwise, others will doubt..."

Zhao Man also picked up a piece of pastry and asked in a very low voice: "Can Grandma Huang see something?"

"Do you think she has a sharp eye?" Tangning picked up the wine glass, offered her a glass of wine with a smile, and whispered: "Don't worry, let's eat food..."

In order not to affect her, Tangning simply stopped talking to her. She turned to the side and saw that the person sitting next to him was King Huai.

Although the gift given by King Huai tonight was not that outstanding, compared with King Kang and King Duan, it was not so embarrassing. At this time, he was leisurely eating the food, wine and cakes on the table.

He took a sip of wine, turned to look at Tang Ning, and asked, "Is there something on my face? Why does Mr. Tang keep looking at me?"

"No, Your Highness must have seen it wrong..." Tangning picked up the wine glass and looked away as if nothing had happened.

King Huai did not continue to ask, but he did not shut up. Instead, he looked at him and asked with a little curiosity: "I am very curious. Is the "blood transfusion" method that Master Tang just mentioned really effective for the Queen Mother's condition?" Effective?"

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "Does Your Highness suspect that Tang Ning is deceiving the emperor?"

"Of course not." King Huai shook his head and said: "I am just curious about these unheard of magic arts. I have heard before that there is a kind of Gu insect that can suck the blood from a person's body and transfer it to another person. , but it’s almost the same as the exchange of blood that Mr. Tang said.”

Tangning looked at him and asked, "Your Highness also knows about Gu insects?"

King Huai nodded and said: "It is rumored that there is a reclusive clan in Nanzhao, hiding in the mountains, who know the magic of cultivating voodoo. It is also said that the Liang people are good at voodoo, but the traces of the reclusive clan are hard to find, and the Liang Kingdom is destroyed." Later, this Gu technique was lost inexplicably, and I have only read about it in some classics."

What Prince Huai knew was beyond Tang Ning's expectations.

He once learned in detail from the old beggar that the Liang people's statement that they were good at voodoo was actually biased. Those who were truly good at voodoo belonged to a certain sect in the Liang Kingdom. This sect was called the Wan Gu Sect, which was based on clan. It was once the state religion of the Liang Kingdom, and many of its members served the Liang Kingdom, so it was said that Liang people were good at voodoo.

But in fact, the voodoo skills of Wan Gu Sect are not spread to foreigners, and in Liang State, there are not many people who really understand the voodoo skills.

Gongsun Ying and Su Mei's master Bai Jin must be from the Wan Gu sect.

After listening to the old beggar's explanation, Tangning thought he was a member of the Gu tribe, but he denied it. According to what he said, when he was young, he was interested in the art of Gu for a while, so he went to teach the Ten Thousand Gus. Come back after learning.

The old beggar said it in an understatement, but the actual situation was definitely not as simple as he said.

Later, Tang Ning accidentally heard from Su Mei that their Ten Thousand Gu Sect had two rules that every disciple must remember when joining the sect.

The first rule is that the voodoo technique cannot be passed on to outsiders, and those who violate it will suffer the pain of being devoured by thousands of voodoos.

Su Mei is not a member of the Gu clan. Strictly speaking, her master Bai Jin has disobeyed the order. However, it is not known whether the Wan Gu sect still exists, so naturally no one will pursue her on this issue.

The second rule is very interesting. Disciples of Wan Gu Cult are not allowed to give alms to beggars, not even a grain of rice or a copper coin.

It can be seen from this canon that some beggar may have done something unforgivable to their Wan Gu sect, which made the leader of that generation hesitate to write this article into the canon...

King Huai looked at Tang Ning and asked, "Does Master Tang also know about Gu?"

Tang Ning nodded slightly and said, "I know a little bit, but this method of blood transfusion is different from Gu. If a person's body loses too much blood, his life will be in danger. As long as he finds a suitable blood source to replenish his life, he can save his life..."

King Huai nodded and said: "There are many restrictions on this kind of miraculous arts. Otherwise, how could Yiyang be the only one in the royal family who can meet the requirements? If I didn't believe Mr. Tang, I almost thought you and Yiyang What’s the grudge?”

"Your Highness, what you said is wrong." Tang Ning shook her head and said, "Even if I have any grudges with Princess Yiyang, I will not use this matter to retaliate against her. I am not such a stingy person."

King Huai glanced at him and asked: "But how did I hear that Mr. Tang is actually a petty person who likes to care about everything, repay any grievances, and avenge any revenge..."

"Who said that!" Tangning put down her wine glass heavily and said, "Slandering an official of the imperial court is punishable by law. Please tell me who said this, Your Highness. We can't just let this matter go!"

King Huai looked at him and asked, "Didn't Master Tang just say that he doesn't care about anything?"

Tangning said in a deep voice, "This is not a matter of arrogance, this is a matter of principle!"

……

Although the Queen Mother's birthday banquet caused some troubles for no reason, and she became the Queen Mother's chief nutritionist and fitness coach, there were also some gains.

If he hadn't come tonight, he wouldn't have known that Princess Yiyang would bully Zhao Man like this. From now on, it would be fine if she was peaceful. If she was restless, he would bleed her every now and then and let her rest and replenish her blood at home. Don't Come out and cause harm to people again.

After the banquet, he left the palace and found a remote place to wait for Xiaoyi and the others to come out.

A figure came out of the darkness, looked at him, and said, "Bring me a message to Bai Jin."

Tangning was startled, turned to look at Gongsun Ying, and said angrily: "There is something wrong with you. You are hiding in a place like this at night. If you have anything to say, go and tell her yourself..."

Gongsun Ying glanced at him and said, "If I can leave, why should I look for you?"

Tangning calmed down her heartbeat and said angrily, "She went to Jiangnan. I can't take this with her."

"What!" Gongsun Ying's expression changed drastically when he heard this, and he asked, "She went to Jiangnan!"

Tang Ning looked at her and said in surprise, "She went to Jiangnan, but she didn't go to die. What are you worried about?"

Gongsun Ying did not answer him, bowed his head and left with a sullen face.

Tangning stood in the yard, watching her leave with a thoughtful expression.

Gongsun Ying's expression just now was more of shock. It was obvious that she was not worried about Bai Jin, but rather worried about herself, indicating that she did not want Bai Jin to go to Jiangnan.What the hell was going on in this, he couldn't figure out for the moment.

He looked up again and saw that Gongsun Ying had disappeared. At the entrance of the palace, Zhong Yi and Tang Yaoyao walked out...
