Chapter 1105
Kang Xuewen hated being manipulated, but he didn't know how to be manipulated at that time. Even in the face of Lin Bingji, he didn't think that he could be fascinated by a beautiful woman. After all, Kang Xuewen has read countless people. How can he be so fascinated by a woman that he even ignores his principles?
Yes, he is a very principled person. Eating, drinking and playing is to enjoy life, but eating, drinking and playing must not violate the state. Once violating the state, it is the golden mountain and silver mountain piled in front of him, and he does not take a look at it.
This is one of the reasons why Tianhe emperor has been relieved of him for so many years.
But this time he won the move, and he was not reconciled, so he paid close attention to Lin Bingji who had not gone to Lancheng at that time every day. He pretended to pander and watched without trace what Lin Bingji had done to him, such as taking medicine.
But Lin Bingji didn't take any medicine, but every time he was in the same room, he would bewitch him strangely. It's like every time he hears Lin Bingji's words, he naturally wants to comply with them. He feels that everything he says is right. If he doesn't listen to them, he will commit heinous crimes and violate the law of heaven.
However, at that time, the poisonous insects in his body had become loose. Although it was not completely loose, he did not completely lose himself as before. So gradually he summed up a rule that if he went to the Yamen office during the day and didn't touch Lin Bingji, he would be far away from her, and his spirit would be much fresher and he would not do some strange behaviors. But as long as you come into contact with Lin Bingji at night, as long as you are intimate with her, your mind will be unstable, and you will want to listen to her again.
Later, he heard Lin Bingji talking to Lin Hansheng, and then he realized that something called Gu was controlling him. He had a Gu insect planted by Lin Bingji, which was a child insect, while the mother insect was on Lin Bingji.
At that time, he had an impulse to kill Lin Bingji in order to finish everything. But it soon came to light that he couldn't, not to mention killing Lin Bingji, even killing Lin Hansheng, because Tongcheng has been controlled by Gebu people. If he gets rid of the control of witchcraft at this time, he can't turn the tables. Tongcheng can't be saved. If it can't be done well, we have to take ourselves in.
What's more, if you let the other party know that he has got rid of the control of witchcraft, maybe he will be given more powerful witchcraft, and then he will not be able to turn over completely. Therefore, what he can do now is to pander to it, and to be a slave to the gobu people as before, but he has already begun to act in secret.
For example, he wanted to marry his daughter to Gebu. Although it was true, outsiders didn't know that the man he was going to send was not his real daughter, but a female secret sentry.
If the goblins calculated him, he had to calculate the goblins too. He sent a secret sentry to kill the Lord of the flower city without any trace. How many people did Gebu harm in Tongcheng? He had to collect some interest.
Of course, this is also a one-time business. If you want to restore the original appearance of Tongcheng and drive the gobu people away from Tongcheng completely, it is not enough to rely on him alone, even if there are border troops. When he arrived, he was able to lead the army to fight, but on the one hand, it was a major event to start a war. On the other hand, he did not dare to touch the garrison. He was afraid that once he led the army, if he was controlled by magic one day, it would be completely destroyed.
He has been stationed at the border all the year round. Because he is very close to Gebu, he has heard for many years about the legend that someone in Gebu will poison him. He can't believe it or not. He just never thought that one day this kind of thing would be used on himself.
Kang Xuewen didn't understand why he got rid of this kind of control automatically. According to his understanding of poisonous insects, he could not get rid of it by himself unless the person who had poisoned him took the initiative to detoxify them.
For this reason, he thought about it for many days. The only possibility was that he had taken a kind of medicine before, which was the tuberculosis pill made by the heavenly princess in the capital.
That's right. Kang Xuewen was infected with tuberculosis before. Although the disease was in the early stage, it would be an incurable disease in the past. He would be dead. Even if he was a magistrate, he could not avoid being sent to the tuberculosis village.
Fortunately, the antidote given by heaven to the princess had been sent to Tongcheng at that time. Because of its special value, it was always in the hands of the government. If people have tuberculosis, they need to be diagnosed correctly before they can receive the TB pills.
No one knew that the magistrate had suffered from tuberculosis. Even his wife and concubine thought that he was always coughing and panting because of typhoid fever. But only he knew that it was tuberculosis. Because it was still in its infancy, it looked like typhoid.
It's not a good thing for a magistrate to have tuberculosis. Although tuberculosis can be cured, it has been an incurable disease for thousands of years. It's deeply rooted in people's hearts. Even if it can be cured, people will think that people who have tuberculosis are not very lucky.
So he secretly took TB pills and cured the disease without anyone finding out.Maybe it's the function of the TB pill. Kang Xuewen thinks that until now, it's because he's taken the TB pill, so the effect of Gu and DU on him can't last long.
Although this is a guess, Kang Xuewen stealthily eats one every three days just in case. He is afraid that the poisonous insects will attack again and again, making him fall back into the state of being controlled.
Of course, this is not a long-term solution, and TB pills are not endless. Every state has several kinds of equipment. His way of eating like sugar beans will run out of ammunition sooner or later. So he's in a hurry, he has to think about countermeasures, he needs help.
Fortunately, Lin Bingji soon went to Lancheng, and Lin Hansheng also went with him. During this period, he got the news that the tenth Prince and Princess Tianci were coming here. This news makes Kang Xuewen happy to explode, not to mention that the tenth Prince is coming with the princess, even if only one of them is OK!
He just waited quietly, and he was still a slave of the gobu people. But since the day when he got rid of the control of witchcraft, there has never been another case of marriage with gobu in Tongcheng. Because he wants to marry his daughter, the magistrate's marriage is a major event. He ordered the whole city not to have a wedding before he married his daughter, so as not to offend his family.
No one doubted what he had done, because originally the magistrate was rough and broad-minded and overbearing. It is perfectly normal for Kang Xuewen to make such a decision.
Day by day, he didn't wait for the news about the tenth Prince and the heavenly princess. Day by day, he was more and more desperate. He was so desperate that he doubted whether the previous news was wrong. The tenth Prince and the heavenly Princess didn't come at all.
Until today, I saw the three people in the restaurant
Kang Xuewen gently raised his foot and carefully took off his shoes and socks. He wanted to put the shoes and socks on the ground, but he was afraid of making a noise, so he simply put them in his hand, and then stood up and stood on the ground barefoot.
Standing on the ground for a while to listen to the movement, to be sure that no one outside to touch the bottom of the window to watch him, then quietly walk up. Go around the bed, to the side, then squat down and, with extreme care, buckle up a lid under the wall.
The cover is actually a wall, but the wall is cut into a square shape, which can be lifted down to reveal a hole in the ground.
Kang Xuewen climbed in backwards. After he got in, he covered the open wall cover again. After waiting for a while, he made sure there was still no movement. Then he stepped back quickly. Fortunately, there is more and more space in the cave. You can stand up straight after three or five steps. He stood up and walked quickly until he came to a room with a candle burning, and then he breathed.
There are two people in the room, a man and a woman, who are his subordinates and secret sentries cultivated by the yama palace. They were sent here by the yama palace five years ago to follow him. They are very reliable.
At the moment, Kang Xuewen appeared. The two men immediately met him. The man asked, "what's your order?"
Kang Xuewen took a deep breath. He was a little nervous. "I saw three people in the restaurant today. One of them made me smell familiar. It was very similar to the smell of the person whom Lin Hansheng had asked me to recognize. I told you that once I overheard a conversation between Lin Hansheng and Bingji and learned that the man was Tian Kaiyang, who used to work with Lin Hansheng. Later, he left Lin Hansheng, and by chance, he went to Princess Tianci. So I was thinking, if he really went to Princess Tianci, he must be working for the princess. When he appeared in Tongcheng at this time, would he be sent by Princess Tianci? Today, he was with two people. I secretly hoped that one of them would be his royal highness, but I was afraid that he was too whimsical. So can you go and find those three people? To identify them? "
After listening to this, the secret sentry also came to the spirit. If the ten Royal Highnesses really arrived, it means that the heavenly Princess must be not far from the copper city, and even came with her. When they arrive, Tongcheng will be saved.
The male secret sentry went out from another secret way, but immediately investigated the matter. The female secret sentry asked Kang Xuewen, "if your royal highness and the heavenly Princess arrive, do you want to see off your relatives five days later?" She is the one who is going to marry in place of Kang Xuewen's daughter. The reason for this question is not that she is unwilling to carry out this task, but that she thinks that there will be better arrangements after Her Highness comes.
Kang Xuewen also had this idea. He told the other party: "everything will wait until you get in touch with your highness and the princess. As long as you get in touch with them, they will decide the follow-up affairs, and our government will not make any arrangements."
The next day was a long wait. When Kang Xuewen entered the secret room again that night, the secret sentry handed him a set of black robes, and said to him: "Lord, put on this, and my subordinates will take you to see your ten highness..."
