Chapter 1559 "Elixir"

Wan Huojing was really a little confused, in his opinion, if he just killed a prince, it would be completely useless, and with the current emperor, he would not be able to pass the throne to the princess no matter what. "If the emperor does not die, how can the princess inherit the throne, although the emperor is old, he is still very strong, if, if another prince or princess is born, then ......"

Wan Huojing didn't finish speaking, but Zeng Yi also understood what he meant, and the third child whispered on the side: "No!" How old is the emperor, and what ability does he have? ”

The fourth child shook his head: "I really can't say, there may be something strange on the rivers and lakes, don't forget, the Tianshan Tong of the Carefree faction was very old and eighty years old back then, because the world is not old for a long time, looking like a little girl, if you want to say that she is still fertile, this may be!" ”

When Wan Huojing heard this, there was still such a rejuvenating martial art on the rivers and lakes, and he was even more worried, "Why don't I find a chance to do it when I meet the emperor?" ”

"Don't die, the emperor is not far from the protection of the master, just the situation that you can't hold the knife steadily, what is the difference between sending it to death! And didn't you say it, the emperor can't die now, his slow death, slow enough that we can only die after we have mastered a certain amount of power in the court! Zeng Yi glanced at Wan Huojing and couldn't help but say.

"So, what then?"

Zeng Yi and the four were silent, and after a while, the fourth raised his head and said, "I have a notice, but I don't know if I can do it?" ”

"Attention, say it quickly!"

"Hehe, you should know that in fact, in addition to the elixir that cures diseases and saves people and increases strength, there is also an elixir on the rivers and lakes."

Zeng Yi frowned, "What pill?" Poison pill? ”

Lao Si shook his head and continued with a smile: "Another elixir, also known as the elixir, is a medicine made by ancient magicians using natural minerals such as lead sand, sulfur, and mercury as raw materials and smelting them in a furnace. Legend has it that if you take the pill, you will not be invaded by all diseases and will live forever. Therefore, in ancient China, there were many emperors who were tired of pursuing pills. ”

"Elixir!" Zeng Yi's eyes lit up, even people who don't know history know that in ancient China, there were many emperors who lost their lives because of this thing. Especially due to the prosperity of Taoism, many people use the name of Taoism to make alchemy, and alchemy activities have reached their peak. However, due to the great toxicity of the elixir, some emperors failed to pursue immortality and lost their lives instead. In reality, the Tang Dynasty had a total of 21 emperors in the 290 years from its establishment to its demise. Of these 21 emperors, at least 5 died of poisoning by taking pills. Such as the Tang Taizong calendar, but the history of the rare Ming Jun, this eloquent emperor when he was young had ridiculed the Qin Emperor Han Wu obsession with magic and seeking pills, but in his later years due to serious illness, he also began to take pills, and finally because of taking the "medicine of prolonging life" refined by Zhongtianzhu Fangshi, the condition worsened and died, at the age of 50.

"That's right, forget about this stubble, if the emperor and the crown prince die, the emperor Lao'er will definitely want to live more, and prolonging his life is definitely his greatest wish, if this old guy starts to take the elixir, then ...... Hahaha! Thinking of this, Zeng Yi suddenly felt that the idea of the fourth child was simply too suitable!

"Then what if he really gets his hands on a life-prolonging elixir? There are all kinds of strange pills on the rivers and lakes, who knows if there are any that can prolong life! The imperial court must have a lot of natural treasures. The boss said worriedly.

"Hehe, you think too much about this, with my professional knowledge, there are a lot of pills that overdraft life, and there are no people who want to prolong their lives out of thin air, as for those natural treasures, just the emperor Lao'er's seriously aging body, if you dare to take heavenly treasures, you can make up for him in minutes!"

Speaking of this, Zeng Yi looked at Wan Huojing and smiled: "You still have to be old in this matter, and you don't need to do anything, just find a chance to mention it to the emperor Lao'er, you can find a life-prolonging elixir, and the rest is waiting to see a good show!" ”

"This, if I have the opportunity, I will mention it, but I can't say it too clearly, if this matter is known to the ministers of the DPRK and China, it will definitely be played, and I am a minister! If I'm being doubted now, there's no way back if the plan fails! Wan Huojing is actually still a little not optimistic about the elixir plan he has made, in his opinion, if the emperor believes this, it is too stupid, so he doesn't want to expose it in advance.

"I don't need you to be so obvious, I just need you to mention it a little, if it really doesn't work, you can be tactful, I believe that in the current situation of the emperor Lao'er, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will never give up."

Wanhuo nodded and was about to order something, Zeng Yi suddenly noticed the movement, and immediately waved his hand, and the three eldest immediately stopped speaking, and after a while, there was a hot knock on the door, followed by a voice: "Master, the meal is ready." ”

Wan Huojing looked at Zeng Yi and the others, and replied, "Got it, you go down first, I'll go over later." ”

After the servant left, Zeng Yi looked at Wanhuojing and whispered: "Do you have any other safe places here, it's not a way to stay in your bedroom all the time!" If anyone notices it, you won't be able to wash it away. ”

Wan Huojing also felt that it was not appropriate for the four of them to stay in his bedroom, frowned, and pondered for a moment, "Although there are few people in Wanfu, there are people in and out of many places, and there is only the ancestral hall in the backyard, except for me, no one can go in, if the four of you don't dislike it, go first then you can hide." ”

"Don't dislike it, it's good to have a place, but you can find a way to get us something to eat."

"Don't worry, every few days, I will personally go to change a batch of tribute, and there is no problem with eating."

If you want to go to the ancestral hall, you must also act at night, there are many people coming and going in Wanfu in the daytime, if these people find that there are four people in the bedroom of Wanhuojing, Zeng Yi is sure that within two days, the people of the entire mansion in the capital will know about this, and among these people, gossip is very powerful.

After the meal, in the afternoon, Wan Huojing rushed to the palace again, he is the secretary of the military department, there are too many things to be busy, especially the emperor Lao'er, knowing that the person who attacked him was the Persian alliance of the Western Xia Tubo steppe, the angry emperor Lao'er shouted that he wanted to declare war on the four countries and avenge his son the crown prince, fortunately, the big people in the court were not carried away by anger, and it was not a wise choice to shoot at the four countries at the same time, especially now, there is obvious evidence that the four countries are definitely an alliance.
