After knowing that he was going to live forever in the Ming Dynasty, Wu Jie made a lot of preparations when he accidentally traveled back to modern society, among which alchemy was also one of the required subjects.

He learned from historical materials that Jiajing was a fanatical religious who began to meditate and refine qi and practice the art of immortality since he was a child. After inheriting the throne, he summoned a large number of Taoist priests and monks to alchemy in the palace, making the entire palace unquenchable day and night, and the miasma of black smoke.

At the beginning, after Wu Jie became a close minister of the emperor by mistake, he also thought about doing what he liked, and studied Taoist alchemy.

After reading through all the information in his hand, he realized that this thing was nothing more than a primitive chemical experiment. The so-called alchemy is the process of continuously purifying minerals using dry distillation technology.

It was during this experiment that the Taoist priests invented gunpowder and changed the world.

Wu Jie is from a liberal arts background, and he has no expertise in chemistry, and his hands-on experience is very poor. If you really want him to tinker with the Dan furnace, he might blow himself up.

Therefore, after figuring out the way of alchemy, Wu Jie never dared to try.

After reading the relevant ancient books and materials, Wu Jie knew that the so-called elixir was actually a chemical synthesis after removing impurities.

And because the elixir is made of sulfur, mercury, lead, stalactites, purple quartz, red stone fat, gold, silver and other minerals used in refining. It's either heavy metals or poisons, and eating these things doesn't do any good to the body, let alone after purification and extraction.

When Ge Hong was refining the pill, on a whim, he combined all the pills together, refined them repeatedly, and finally obtained a perfect eight-sided crystal. Supposedly, this is the legendary elixir of life.

But Ge Hong still kept an eye on it, and did not rush to take it, but experimented on chickens and ducks first.

As a result, the animals used in the experiment without exception bleed from all seven orifices and died of poison.

This attracted Ge Hong's attention, and after analyzing the composition of the drug, he learned that this perfect crystal was actually high-purity arsenic.

After seeing this information, Wu Jie knew that the pill was harmful to the body.

Now, the emperor let himself take it in front of him, doesn't this cost me my life?

But the emperor's will, how dare Wu Jie disobey.

Looking at Huang Jin beside him, he also had a bitter look on his face, obviously, this old eunuch also knew the power of this medicine.

There was no way, Wu Jie had to thank Huang Jin and put the elixir in his mouth.

Wu Jie kept an eye on it, and did not swallow it directly, but quietly put the pill under his tongue.

Jiajing used the elixir of immortality for his two favorite ministers, and his blue-gray face stretched out: "If I become an immortal in the future, there will be few people around me." Both of you are the most trusted people I trust, but there are benefits, and you will be rewarded. Stand down, I need to be clean, so that the power of the medicine can be channeled into the meridians of the whole body. ”

"Minister, retire." Wu Jie hurriedly saluted Huang Jin and Hu Dashun and his son and retired.

This medicine is really powerful, as soon as I put it in my mouth, I felt a cool breath rushing from under my tongue to my head, and it was like the smell of being applied to my nostrils with wind oil.

At the same time, the tongue began to go numb a little.

Coming out of Jiajing's quiet room, the old eunuch Huang also moved quickly, didn't say a word of nonsense, and ran away with a young man's agility. Perhaps, Huang Jin can't stand this kind of medicine and has to find a place to deal with it. Perhaps, the old eunuch didn't swallow his stomach like himself.

No matter what was going on, Wu Jie didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly ran out of the leopard room, walked to the water's edge, and spit out the elixir of immortality with a "phew". Then lie on the water's edge and rinse your mouth in the cold water of the lake in a place where there is no freezing.

But even so, the numbness in his mouth became more and more severe, and his head was dizzy. …,

Wu Jie was shocked in his heart, this thing ...... If it is placed in the afterlife, it is a prohibited drug! This father and son of the Hu family, for the sake of their own wealth, actually gave the emperor such a fierce medicine, it is really not a thing.

I was really annoyed, and suddenly, a hand reached out from the side, grabbed the small scarlet pill that Wu Jie spit on the ground, and sneered: "Bold Wu Jie, given by the Son of Heaven, I didn't accept it!" ”

After speaking, there was an eerie sneer.

Wu Jie stood up and turned his head to look, only to see Hu Dashun and Hu Yuanyu standing behind him with a sly smile.

Hu Yuanyu held the pill in his hand, as if he was about to fly into the world.

Wu Jie's face sank: "Two Dao Chiefs, what do you mean?" ”

"What do you mean, haha, Wu Jie, now you're in my hands." Hu Yuanyu threw the elixir of immortality up and down in his hand: "Aren't you very proud in front of this Dao now, what about now?" If you kneel down and beg for mercy, as soon as you are in a good mood, you may be let go. Otherwise...... Haha, Wu Jie, Wu Jie, don't look at your favor in front of the Son of Heaven, if this matter falls to you, your favor can be regarded as the end. ”

At this time, even Hu Dashun, who was silent and quiet, laughed with a villainous face.

Wu Jie is not afraid, even if he makes the emperor unhappy because of this, there will be a chance to repair it in the future. Besides, as a modern person, I have a prescient sense of history. Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you completely offend Emperor Jiajing, it doesn't hurt.

In real history, Jiajing only needs to live for four years, as long as I Wu Jie passed the Jinshi examination and ordered Hanlin, it is a big deal not to contact the emperor. With his affection for Concubine Li and Yuwangfu, he has a chance to turn over. That set of pregnant women's health exercises is the foreshadowing that I have planted in advance.

Wu Jie was not angry, and asked with a smile: "Daochang Hu, Hu Yuanyu, are you going to be an enemy of Wu Jie?" Aren't you afraid that my Wu Festival will have great ambitions in the future and want to reason with you? ”

Hu Yuanyu snorted and shouted: "Wu Jie, you really think highly of yourself, what kind of bullshit ambition to show, but what is the difference between a courtier next to His Majesty and our father and son?" Those of us who serve the Son of Heaven, all the riches and powers are not all attached to the emperor's preferences. ”

"You really think I'm your kind." Wu Jie smiled faintly, and didn't bother to pay attention: "You are you, I am me, don't forget, Wu Jie is a scholar, and he has a reputation for raising people, and it is possible that in the future, the high school jinshi will really take the righteousness and strictness in my Confucian heart as a serious fool of you flies and dogs who have no warlocks!" ”

The sound fades away, and it is no longer audible.

Hu Yuanyu was furious, and was about to scold, but saw his father's face change, as if he realized something.

He didn't have time to think too much, so he pinched the pill and walked towards Jiajing's quiet room.

Hu Dashun wanted to say something, his lips moved, but he closed them and followed his son forward.

Either way, it's a great opportunity not to be missed. No matter how calmly Wu Jie said just now, it couldn't change the fact that he was about to lose the emperor's favor.

……

Hu Dashun still maintained the image of a cultivator in front of the emperor, holding floating dust in his hand, and he looked like he didn't care about the world.

However, Hu Yuanyu gave it with his tongue, and when he talked about the situation when Wu Jie secretly spit out the pill just now, he was filled with righteous indignation. In his mouth, Wu Jie has incarnated into a rebellious minister and thief who is ungrateful, discredited by the king's love, and heinous.

If you don't kill, it's not enough to relieve the hatred in your heart.

Jiajing had just taken the elixir of immortality, and was sitting cross-legged on the futon to cultivate his luck.

The effect of this medicine came very violently, and Jiajing was extremely thin, and on a cold day, he only wore two shirts. But at this moment, a layer of fine sweat appeared on the tip of his nose, and his face was slightly red.

After listening to Hu Yuanyu, Jiajing said, "Huo! He stood up, and the robe on his body made a crisp sound in the cold wind passing through the hall: "Damn, hateful!" ”…,

It was about because the medicinal power had not yet completely dissipated, and the blood qi surged, and the emperor's face suddenly turned blood red.

"Yes, yes, what the Lord of Long Live said is, this Wu Festival is really hateful!" Hu Yuanyu's face showed ecstasy and cursed repeatedly.

Hu Dashun's eyebrows, who were still silent just now, also stretched, and the corners of his mouth were slightly curled.

Wu Jie is too popular in Xiyuan for a while, as long as he falls, this is the world of my father and son.

Just as he was about to take advantage of the hot iron and fall into the well again, Jiajing turned around and looked at the banner on the wall.

After only one glance, he smiled, and the red on his face gradually dissipated and returned to his blue appearance.

"I practiced my body like a crane, and there were two letters under a thousand Panasonics. I came to ask Wuyu to say, the clouds are in the blue sky, and the water is in the bottle. ”

Only then did Hu Dashun see that the banner had the name of Wu Jie, and his heart jumped suddenly.

Emperor Jiajing chanted again: "A pot of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without a blind date, raising a glass to invite the bright moon, and the shadow becomes a trio." The moon does not drink, and the shadow disciples follow me. Temporarily accompanied by the shadow of the moon, the joy must be and the spring ...... Taoism pays attention to purity and inaction, and Confucianism helps the world. One was born, the other entered the WTO. Looking at this poem, although there is unbearable loneliness between the lines, there is also a sense of ambition to fly high with the moonlight and wind. After all, Wu Jie is a Confucian disciple! ”

Hu Dashun: "Your Majesty ......"

Jiajing smiled: "Forget it, the effect of Hu Xianchang's medicine is too strong, and ordinary people can't afford it." Wu Jie can't cultivate, and he has a lot of fetters in the red world, and it's understandable that he can't stand it. Cultivating a thing pays attention to the waterway, and you can't blindly advance bravely. Wu Jie did not accept the elixir, but it made sense. ”

After speaking, he turned his head to look at the Hu family's father and son, and his face turned gloomy: "Wu Jie is the courtier I will use in the future, and he is different from you." What he has done and what he has said, I know it, so why wait and say? ”

The emperor said that if he changed his face, he would change his face, and the father and son of the Hu family shuddered at the same time.

……

At the same time, Wu Jie, who was sitting on the sedan chair, also shivered, feeling that his body was too cold.

"It's about poisoning, it's really bad luck today!" He shouted bad luck in his heart, and kept urging the sedan chair man to go quickly, go home early, and drink some hot milk to detoxify.
