Du Ruhui is still lying on the bed, but his whole personality has improved a lot. His face was not as pale as before, but there was a hint of redness.

This is the fifth time Qin Ze has come, and the two of them are obviously used to it. At the beginning, Li Chengqian was promised to treat Du Ruhui, and the system prescribed Qin Ze's ten-point wish value. But now it seems that it has been fully paid again.

Once again, Du Ruhui's body was probed, and Qin Ze finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The erythema in the lungs has basically disappeared, and if this trend continues, if you take the medicine again today, Du Ruhui's illness should be similar.

As usual, he tied Du Ruhui's eyes with a black ribbon, and Qin Ze skillfully put the hanging bottle on Du Ruhui.

"The condition has improved, and it should be about the same if I take the medicine again. However, with some time to recuperate, I think I will be able to fully recover. Qin Ze stood aside and said lightly to Du Ruhui.

"I heard you've been building ships lately?" Du Ruhui nodded, but changed the topic.

He doesn't cough much now, so it's much easier for him to talk.

Qin Ze was indeed building a ship, and Li Er's mind of wanting to go out to find the elixir could not be changed. Qin Ze knew this, although Du Ruhui didn't say it to himself. But since he told him about it, almost half a month has passed now, but Li Er is still gathering hundreds of workers.

This means that even Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling have not changed His Majesty's mind. Therefore, Qin Ze quickly understood that since Li Er wanted the elixir so much, it was better to let Li Yifu and the others be buried directly on the sea than to let the Wa Kingdom lose the benefits in vain.

"Your Majesty's mind is afraid that it can't be changed, since it is so cheap, it is better to let Your Majesty waste his energy on more meaningful things. There are many other countries on the sea, and one of them is full of spices. The grain there is 20 stones per mu, and if it can be brought back to Datang, it will also benefit the country and the people. ”

Persuasion is useless, Qin Ze might as well let them go to South America. At the very least, it is the real "fairy island" for them.

When Du Ruhui heard this, he also sighed. At the beginning, he informed Wei Zheng and others of this matter. With his character, he would never allow Li Er to do such a thing, but he didn't expect that Li Er would actually convince Wei Zheng.

"I saw the so-called dragon scales with my own eyes, although they are only the size of a thumb, they can emit colorful light in the dark night, and I am afraid that there really is a dragon. As for the "fairy island" you mentioned, I'm afraid it can't change Your Majesty's mind anymore. Du Ruhui shook his head and said, there was even a hint of longing on his face.

Of course, Qin Ze had also seen that scale, but not only did he not have a trace of longing in his heart, but he couldn't avoid it.

Something that can emit a halo, except for the legendary Night Pearl. All that was left was radioactive minerals, so this thing not only did not have a trace of beauty to Qin Ze, but was a somewhat deadly threat. Especially when the light of that thing was so strong, Qin Ze knew that this matter was not simple.

Li Yifu used this to move Li Er, and promised that this time when he went to sea, he must hunt the dragon, and then give Neidan to Li Er.

It was a perfect plan, but he met Qin Ze. Now the broken stone is lying quietly in the depths of the underground of the Datang Academy. Qin Ze poured it with a heavy block of lead, and then buried it in the ground.

In order to exchange for this broken stone, Qin Ze also spent a little wish value and found a system to exchange for a night pearl.

In terms of volume alone, the Night Pearl is better than the broken stone of Li Yifu, and as far as Qin Ze knows, there have been four records of the Night Pearl in history, and the first emperor was buried with a night pearl called the Eye of the Candle Dragon.

So when he saw Qin Ze, the pearl of the night, Li Er was instantly attracted to it. Compared with the broken dragon stone taken out by Li Yifu, Qin Ze's night pearl was directly regarded by Li Er as the inner pill of Jiaolong.

If it weren't for the fear that Li Er would not be able to think of swallowing this thing, Qin Ze really planned to say so, but in the end, reason prevailed.

Now that he heard Du Ruhui mention Jiaolong again, Qin Ze naturally pouted and said, "The kid has not only seen Jiaolong, but even seen Kun. ”

When Qin Ze said this, his confidence was extremely sufficient. After all, when he went to the zoo, he rushed to see a one-person thick python, and now that I think about it, it should be considered a python.

As for the Kun, not to mention the thing, Qin Ze has seen a lot of fifteen yuan tickets in the aquarium. It's just that it can't turn into a bird, but it's big enough. It's pretty much the same for being used as a kun.

If someone else said this, Du Ruhui might scoff at it, but if Qin Ze said so, he would be convinced.

"Could it be that you revealed your master to Your Majesty?"

When Du Ruhui heard Qin Ze say this, he thought that Qin Ze had told Li Er about his secret, which could be said to be unbelievable in Du Ruhui's opinion.

"That's right, the kid also used a Jiaolong Neidan in exchange for His Majesty's broken scales. When you are healed, you can also go and see it. ”

Deceiving Du Ruhui like this, Qin Ze suddenly felt uneasy in his heart, but then he was relieved.

The reason why he did this was also a helpless move, after all, Qin Ze had seen the thoughts of those people in the Wa Kingdom. In the past half a month, with the help of the Emperor Palace and the beggar gang, Qin Ze has already checked the Tang envoys in Chang'an City.

The result shocked Qin Ze.

The Immortal Sect behind Ruoliu colluded with the Wa Kingdom, and with the help of the singer, he easily blended into the major nobles of Chang'an.

If it weren't for Qin Ze's stubborn defense of gunpowder and the Datang Academy, it is estimated that the Datang would be an undefended treasure for the Wa Kingdom.

Fortunately, although Li Er said that he devoted himself to finding the elixir, he also knew the current form of Chang'an. So as soon as half a month came, the court also became nervous.

But in the light of it, what the Japanese wanted most was gunpowder, hot air balloons, and steelmaking technology. And it is impossible to infiltrate the Ordnance Prison, which is a forbidden place in the court. There are Cheng Lao Demon and others guarding it, and ordinary people can't approach it at all.

Therefore, these Japanese people hit Qin Ze with their ideas.

Today's Datang College is still called the Military Medical Department, but the students inside know that it is no longer just a professor of military doctors.

In the underground of Datang Academy, in a huge space, a group of people are constantly busy.

The craftsmen of the Ordnance Prison, who had mastered gunpowder, hot air balloons, and steelmaking, had begun to slowly move here.

This was something that Qin Ze had discussed with Li Er at the beginning, this place belonged to Li Er, and no one could get close to this place except for his permission.

In order to build such a fortress underground, it took Qin Ze's effort. Because of the need to study gunpowder and the like, this underground research institute is also directly located at the bottom of the Jinghe River in Jingyang County. In this way, in the event of an explosion, it is also convenient to divert water.

The entrance to the underground research institute is in the Tang Academy, but there are only a few people who know this place.

As long as he thought that someone was conducting gunpowder research underground, Qin Ze, who was standing on the bank of the Jing River, was a little worried. He was really afraid that in case of a major accident, he would blow up the riverbed directly.

Li Chengqian is also here, and he was punished by Li Er.

He longed for freedom, so Li Er simply asked him to go out of the palace and follow Qin Ze to assist Qin Ze in building a sea ship.

"Are you just going to dislike me?" Li Chengqian gathered beside Qin Ze and said this for no reason.

In the past half month, Li Chengqian has basically stayed on the Jinghe River every day. Every day, I mingle with the craftsmen and study the so-called sea ships together. Although I was fortunate to have suffered a little, I felt extremely stable in my heart. Except that Qin Ze was still lukewarm to him, there was nothing.

Qin Ze was looking at the model of the sea ship that would be made as a supervisor, and when he heard Li Chengqian ask, he also raised his head and looked over and said, "Your Highness's words really make the ministers panic. ”

Li Chengqian shook his head and continued: "Actually, to be honest, at the beginning, the queen mother instructed that you must get closer to Qin Hou more. And said that Qin Hou was the help of a certain future to ascend the throne, at first I didn't know what this meant, and I thought that the queen mother just cared about Qin Hou's intelligence. But now he knows that the reason why Qin Hou is worthy of being close is only because of Qin Hou's integrity. ”

"Integrity?" Qin Ze laughed at himself disdainfully: "The minister was in the Turks for a while, and he once forced the Turkic minister Ga Nashu'er to death step by step. He also killed his best friend, and His Highness said this, which really made the ministers frightened. ”

"The reason why Qin Hou said that Qin Hou was upright was because Qin Hou could give advice to him regardless of everything." Speaking of this, Li Chengqian also sighed and said, "Can't you and I be the same as before?" ”

As soon as Qin Ze heard Li Chengqian's words, he also put down the model of the sea ship in his hand, looked at Li Chengqian's eyes and said, "Then what if the minister wants His Highness to obey the minister's words?" ”

"Then so-and-so can only give up Qin Hou." Li Chengqian's answer was extremely simple.

For a while, the two of them were silent for a while, and after a long time, Qin Ze nodded, and said expressionlessly: "You answered this sentence very well, since you want to be free as the crown prince, you have to say it boldly." Riding a war horse in a beard and roaring, what does it mean? But it's impossible to go back in time, and I didn't really have a choice in the first place, you know that. ”

Qin Ze has never regarded Li Chengqian as a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child, so when he speaks, he does not hide it.

"So I believe in you." Li Chengqian nodded with a smile.

The emperor's family has always been a genius who has won people's hearts, but Qin Ze is not a simple person. No matter what happens, Qin Ze is determined that he will never tie his net worth and life to Li Chengqian's body.

Of course, assisting him is still what Qin Ze should do, but once Qin Ze finds out that something is wrong, when it is time to withdraw, he still has to withdraw.
