Chapter 423: Time Ferments Everything

"What is this?" The eldest prince suppressed the surprise on his face and asked.

"Immortal medicine, you can live forever."

A hint of surprise flashed in the eldest prince's eyes, "I wonder if I can take it?" Since it is an immortal medicine, why should I dedicate it to my father, don't I want him to do it in that position forever, and then neither I nor the crown prince want to win the throne. ”

"No, this medicine is a semi-finished product, and eating it can accelerate death, but before that, people who take this medicine will be full of energy, as if they were reborn, and after a period of time, they will grow old quickly and die gradually."

"Wouldn't it be self-defeating to offer that prince." Although the eldest prince has always suffered losses, his IQ is still online.

I saw the man laugh and say, "Then don't use your hands." ”

"Oh, hahahaha." The eldest prince suddenly realized, and called the military advisor smart, this medicine must find an opportunity to ask the prince to offer, and then he killed the prince on the charge of murdering his father, and sat on the throne himself.

"I wish the eldest prince success."

"When the prince ascends to that position, you will be the national teacher."

"Then I'll wait for the good news from the eldest prince."

Seeing the man disappear into the tunnel at the end of the secret room, the eldest prince came out of the secret room and immediately called Wei Lingshen in the name of poetry, and the two conspired in the house for a long time.

Li Qing has been cleaning for a year, approaching the end of the year, and finally has a leisure, and now there is more than a year before the two children in the family participate in the scientific examination, so the two babies are now reading as if they are playing, and they are learning while playing.

It is worth mentioning that Gu Jiuqing, the granddaughter of the Gu family, has gradually become active in the circle of celebrities in Beijing, but at the age of twelve, she has already mastered her painting skills, and the female workers have also done a decent job. In the past, this person didn't often appear in everyone's sight, maybe he was a little older, and he was no longer ignorant.

Yun Ji is happy, in his opinion, his sister is about to grow up.

This year's Chinese New Year, Emperor Qiguan asked the whole world to celebrate, and at the same time, the prince presented him with a box of pills, which I heard was a gift from a master in Penglai in the East.

The Emperor gladly accepted it. Li Qing was in the side hall next door, Yan Qing was standing behind Yun Ji in the main hall, the two glanced at each other in the air, even if it was through the veil, Yan Qing knew that Li Qing had seen it.

This can only indicate one problem, that pill has a problem.

After the banquet, Li Qing said goodbye to the sisters and hurried home.

"That medicine ......"

"Poison." Yan Qing said expressionlessly.

"Inevitably?"

"Qiguan Qi is about to run out, but there is still strength left, at least three or five years to live, but if this medicine is in the stomach, I am afraid that I can only live for another year and a half." Yan Qing suddenly frowned.

"Can't the doctor find out?" Li Qing asked.

"There is a spell in it, the Imperial Doctor is just an ordinary person, how can you see it? However, in my opinion, it is already the end of the crossbow, and this matter has to be considered in the long run. Yan Qing said.

Li Qing bowed slightly, then poked his head out from the door frame and asked Chunhua to find Mu Yang.

"What does the lady command?" Mu Yang bowed respectfully.

"Send someone to ask Imperial Doctor Gu to come to the house to talk about it, saying that there is something important to find him, please ask Imperial Doctor Gu to be extremely fast." Li Qing commanded.

I don't know if I was stumped by official business, Gu Xiangwan came to Jiang's Mansion the next afternoon.

"I've been studying in the palace since yesterday afternoon, and I'm not free until today, I don't know what A-Qing is looking for me?" Gu Xiangwan sat on the chair and leisurely picked up the teacup.

As soon as Gu Xiangwan entered the mansion, Li Qing sent out all the big and small maids in the mansion, saying that it was the New Year, giving them a holiday, going out to have a good show, and they all paid New Year's money. A group of maids and maids went out in a daze.

Mu Yang realized that Li Qing seemed to have a big deal with Gu Xiangwan, and he also took the initiative to contract the task of guarding the door. Even the Jiang family was sent out by Li Qing to sell New Year's goods. Now there are only Li Qing, Yan Qing and Gu Xiangwan left in the mansion, as well as Mu Yang who guards the door.

"Yesterday, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince presented a box of pills, I wonder if the Imperial Doctor has seen it?"

Gu Xiangwan's eyes widened, and he hurriedly said: "From yesterday afternoon to today, I was studying this medicine, something like this, I must study it thoroughly to ensure that I can only enter the emperor's mouth after taking it." ”

"Your Majesty must not take this medicine, this is a poison that kills life, not a tonic for longevity as His Highness said." After Li Qing finished speaking, he immediately felt that this was a conspiracy, if this was the case, I am afraid that someone deliberately got this thing into the hands of the prince, and wanted to use the prince's hand to remove the emperor. So it's clear who is behind it.

Gu Xiangwan was surprised, "I studied for a night last night, and found that the medicinal materials used in it are all great tonics, and they complement each other, not like poison." Gu Xiangwan said, took out a box from his arms, opened it and saw that it was the pill that the prince offered yesterday.

"Imperial Doctor, you must find a way to get Your Majesty to give up taking this medicine." Li Qing pointed to the pill and said.

Gu Xiangwan nodded, and then Yan Qing spoke: "This is an elixir refined by evil arts, on the surface, it looks like a perfect tonic pill, but in fact, there is a secret hidden in it, people who eat this kind of thing will be refreshed at first, and it will last for about seven or eight months, and then there will be symptoms of exhaustion, and finally death, not to replenish life, but to really lose life." ”

Yan Qing's words attracted Gu Xiangwan's attention, maybe it was really as the two said, then this medicine was really poison.

"I understand, after I go back, I will pinch out a few non-toxic and harmless ones according to the method, forget about this medicine, I will tell Your Majesty the truth, but who did this matter after all, I can't make a conclusion." Gu Xiangwan subconsciously felt that the prince would not harm the emperor, but people's hearts were unpredictable, how could he know if the prince was sincere.

That night, Gu Xiangwan had a long talk with Emperor Qiguan, and Gu Changfeng also followed him into the palace.

Li Qing will not care anymore, and as for the credit, she will not fight for it. Gu Xiangwan naturally wouldn't hide Li Qing's merits in front of Qi Guan, but because she was a woman, Qi Guan would not give her an official rank, but he made a reassessment of Jiang Yunji in his heart, and Li Qing undoubtedly made Jiang Yun and his future career smoother.

As for what will happen to the imperial court this time, and what will happen in the political arena, it is unknown.

Li Qing only thought about taking refuge, no matter what fire was burned, it would not burn the Jiang family.

The purge of the imperial court is imperative, Emperor Qiguan is not a person who can control the love of children, and the decisive battle between the prince and the eldest prince is not this year and next year, but the year after tomorrow.

Even Yun Ji felt some changes while walking in the school, but this change was not obvious.

Time ferments everything.

In a blink of an eye, it was the year when the imperial court opened Enke, this year Yun and seventeen, Guan Shangxuan twenty.

This year, the early spring in Beijing came very late, at the end of February, and it was still snowing.

The streets are covered with snow, and as far as the eye can see, the whole of Upper Kyoto is shrouded in a white expanse.
