Kou Zhun turned his head sideways, his eyes swept around everyone's faces, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Maybe...... Worse than rebellion......"

When everyone heard this, they were all stunned.

Then his face changed again and again.

In the Great Song Dynasty, rebellion was certainly a terrible thing.

But it's not unusual.

From the beginning of Emperor Taizu's ascension to the throne of Zhao Kuangyin, until now, in the past 59 years, rebellions have occurred one after another, and after careful calculation, there have been more than 30 cases (non-author's fabrication, historical records show that there were 439 rebellions in the Song Dynasty).

Whether it is the civil and military officials in the court, or the ordinary people in the countryside, they have long been used to it.

But the thing that is more terrible than the rebellion, that is, it is really terrible.

No one doubts the truth of what Kou Zhun said, and with Kou Zhun's status and temperament, he will not deceive them with lies.

Wang Shu turned his head sideways with a gloomy face, and instructed his wife and son, "You go to the wing room of the house to rest first." ”

Wang Koushi knew that Wang Shu had political affairs to talk about next, and she was not good at staying as a woman, so she nodded and prepared to leave.

It was Wang Shu's son, Wang Yuan, who was clamoring to stay.

Wang Shu didn't have a good face towards his son, and when Wang Yuan was noisy, he just kept a calm face and said the word 'roll' coldly.

Wang Yuan immediately ran away with his tail between his legs.

After Wang Kou and Wang Yuan left, Zhou Huaizheng also branched out the eunuchs who came with him.

In the main hall of Kou Mansion, there were Kou Zhun, Li Di, Wang Shu, Wang Zeng, Yang Yi, Yang Chongxun, Zhou Huaizheng and others.

Wang Shu closed the door, walked quickly in front of Kou Zhun, and said in a deep voice, "Father-in-law, what happened?" ”

Kou Zhun glanced at him and said faintly, "What do you think of that kid Kou Ji?" ”

Wang Shu was stunned.

Everyone present was also stunned.

They didn't understand why Kou Zhun mentioned Kou Ji for no reason.

Wang Shu frowned and said, "Father-in-law, why are you mentioning him in a good manner, what happened?" ”

Kou Zhun stared at him and said seriously: "The old man wants to know what you think of him." ”

Wang Shu hesitated for a moment and said, "A little clever, a little responsible......"

"Gone?"

"It's gone!"

Kou Zhun shook his head and asked again, "Then do you think he will coax the old man?" ”

Wang Shu was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "Could it be that what my father-in-law is worried about is related to Kou Ji?" ”

Kou Zhun narrowed his eyes, "You answer the old man's question first." ”

Wang Shu groaned: "Back to my father-in-law's words, my son-in-law feels that although Kou Ji is a little tricky, he will never dare to lie to you." ”

"Bang!"

Kou Zhun slapped one hand on the table and wailed: "The old man hopes that he is coaxing the old man this time." ”

Wang Shu's eyes widened, he glanced at the others, and exclaimed, "Is it really related to Kou Ji?" ”

Li Di has a straight temperament and doesn't like to talk around the bush, so he asked directly: "Brother Kou, don't sell Guanzi, what happened to make you so worried, say it and we'll take a closer look at it together." ”

Kou Zhun groped out the jade box containing the elixir from his cuffs and placed it on the table.

Zhou Huaizheng was stunned, "Elixir? ”

Kou Zhun nodded, looked at everyone, and said word by word: "Someone told the old man that this thing is poisonous ......"

Everyone was shocked.

Just kidding, right?

If this thing was really poisonous, it would be terrible.

In the entire Great Song Dynasty, there are not many people who are qualified to take the elixir.

However, it is these few people who affect the lifeblood of the Great Song Dynasty.

The safety of each of them determines the safety of the Great Song Dynasty.

Li Di said with a stiff expression on his face: "Brother Kou, are you playing us?" ”

Wang Zeng and the others nodded in agreement.

Kou Zhun sighed faintly: "That person also told the old man that people who take the elixir for a long time will cause dizziness, headache, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, insomnia, palpitations, ......."

Every time Kou Zhun said a symptom, the faces of Li Di and the others changed.

When Kou Zhun said his last sentence, the faces of everyone present turned blue.

"Supposedly, a little more serious...... The heir is difficult to prosper......"

Li Di was stunned and froze in place.

Zhou Huaizheng's legs and feet were weak and he sat on the ground.

Only Wang Zeng said in a trembling voice: "Kou Xianggong, hearsay matters...... I can't believe ......"

Wang Zeng said so, but did he really think so in his heart?

Every symptom Kou Zhun said was fulfilled in the official family, and they already believed it in their hearts, but they didn't believe it in their mouths.

That's because there's so much involved.

Li Di slowly came back to his senses under the reminder of Wang Zeng's voice, and he trembled and said: "Brother Kou, the official family has been taking the elixir for more than ten years...... The crown prince has been taking the elixir for four years......

Do you know what your words mean? ”

What does that mean?

It means that if the four words 'heirs are difficult to prosper' are fulfilled in the crown prince, the Zhao royal family, the official family, may be extinct.

Throughout the ages, Chinese people have attached great importance to the inheritance of their offspring.

If you let the official family, the Ninety-Five Supreme, know that he may be doomed, God knows what crazy things he will do.

Kou Zhun had a bitter face and said sadly: "The old man just knows the stakes in it, so he deceived himself not to believe it." But tomorrow, the old man is afraid that he will not believe it. ”

Wang Shu's eyes widened in vain, and he said urgently: "Kou Ji has a way to verify that the elixir is poisonous?" ”

None of the people present were stupid, they had already passed Kou Zhun's words and knew that the person who told Kou Zhun that the elixir was poisonous was Kou Ji.

Kou Zhun shook his head and said in a low voice: "No ......"

Everyone was stunned.

Without waiting for them to react, they heard Kou Zhun say again: "He didn't tell the old man how to verify that this elixir is poisonous......"

Kou Zhun looked at everyone and said faintly: "But he told the old man that he would also refine this thing." The reason why the old man made a big effort to let the people in the house go out to the major pharmacies at night was to help him prepare things for alchemy. ”

Rao is Li Di and others are well-informed, and they don't know what to say at this moment.

One by one, they stood in place, like a piece of wood, motionless, with a very strange look on their faces.

There is suffering, there is shock, there is astonishment, there is horror......

The main hall of Kou Mansion was quiet, and the needle drop could be heard.

In the Garden of the Four Monarchs, it is also quiet.

Kou Ji slept very soundly, and even kicked the quilt a few times.

He didn't know at all that in order to appease Kou Zhun's anger, he casually said something that turned several important ministers in the court into wooden people.

Night, quietly slipping away.

At the time of the fourth watch.

A group of important ministers led by Kou Zhun walked into the Four Monarchs Garden.

All of them had cold faces and no expressions.

Kou Zhong followed behind them, and behind Kou Zhong, he followed a group of Kou Mansion servants holding medicinal herbs, danding, cinnabar, and other things.
