Chapter 129: The Angry Prince
"Poof." The prince, who was resting in bed, heard the news of Baicao Valley from his subordinates, and a mouthful of blood splattered out, and the pale yellow brocade quilt was instantly stained with blood-red flowers.
"Who the hell is it? Who is it? The prince didn't care to wipe the blood left at the corner of his mouth, and angrily pounded the big bed of purple gold sandalwood,
Chang Xi, the personal eunuch who had been serving by the bedside, waved his hand to let the people who were waiting in the room out, and at the same time stepped forward to support the prince and help him wipe his mouth by the way.
"You must take care of your body, you can't trample on your body because of other people's messy things, when the time comes, the relatives will be bitter and the enemy will be fast, but it is not worth it." Chang Xi persuaded in a shrill voice.
"Who the hell ruined Lone's immortal drunk," the prince forcefully pushed his hand away and ignored him. Raising his eyes and staring fiercely ahead, his face was hideous, his eyes were red, and he was a little crazy.
Chang Xi was shocked, "His Royal Highness the Prince, is there a problem with the immortal drunk?" He only saw someone whispering something in the prince's ear just now, but he didn't expect it to be such a big thing.
He knows very well about the drunkenness of the gods, and even his advice is in this. Last year's immortal drunkenness made a great effort for them to win over and control the courtiers, and the prince had high hopes for this year's immortal drunkenness. He also happily said that day that if this year's immortal drunkenness was accepted, half of the power of the capital would be controlled by him, and neither the emperor nor his brothers and brothers would be able to stop him from ascending to the throne.
Who would have thought that at this critical moment, the immortal drunk would have a problem, and Chang Xi was anxious for the prince. The prince's body has been getting worse and worse since he was poisoned by the last assassination, and everyone outside is speculating about everything. But the prince's affairs have been kept secret.
The main reason for hiding it like this is to give his supporters a confidence, so that they can think that the prince is playing tricks and creating the illusion that a person is seriously injured and about to die, in order to confuse other princes, so that their secret forces will jump out like clowns, and they can be wiped out when the time comes.
In fact, there is indeed a big problem with the prince's body, he has been poisoned by a very rare poison, listening to the imperial doctor Zhang who has been retired in the palace for many years, if the prince had not taken blood jade ginseng before being poisoned, he would have died on the spot when he was assassinated. Although blood jade ginseng is a holy product for detoxification, it is only limited to detoxifying ordinary poisons. The poison in the prince is too complicated, and it enters directly from the blood, and unless all the blood is replaced, it cannot be completely detoxified.
Judging from the current physical condition of the crown prince, even with the assistance of various supplements and detoxification holy products, he will only have a lifespan of eleven or twelve years at most.
That's why the prince made a desperate bet and pinned all his hopes on the immortal drunk. Immortal Drunk is a miracle medicine that his subordinate Captain Chi Xiong found from an overseas island. At the beginning, the prince sent Yu Chixiong to the sea for the purpose of looking for Meng Qianluo, and the battle between Yingrui and Meng Qianluo played a key role, and the prince has not given up looking for it for so many years. Although it has not been found, it can also be regarded as an unexpected joy to find the fairy drunk. As long as you eat it, even the gods can't escape the control of the prince.
Now that the fairy is drunk and has an accident, it's no wonder that the prince is not in a hurry. They used the immortal drunk to control several big people in the capital, and when the time came, as long as the prince raised his arms, they would not respond.
If these people know that they may not be able to eat the immortals and get drunk in the future, they will not kill the prince's mansion. Chang Xi has seen people who are drunk and addicted to drugs, and they are so terrible, they are like crazy. He couldn't imagine what serious consequences they would face if the news got out.
"Ruined, ruined, so many immortals drunk are ruined." The crown prince also knew the terrible consequences that this matter might cause, and he looked up and sighed in despair, "It's a pity that Lone has worked hard for so many years, and finally ruined this critical step." He clenched his fists again and pounded the bed hard, "You said that it was only a few months, and in a few months the immortal drunk will be able to harvest, and God actually looked at me like this, and ruined my immortal drunkenness." It looks like heaven is going to kill me. The prince's sallow face was miserable, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly because of the depression in his heart.
"Your Highness, what did Wei Chixiong say?" Chang Xi was a little puzzled, he didn't listen to the report, he didn't know what was going on, what kind of situation could get so many immortals drunk, I heard the news from Yu Chixiong that he had planted a lot this year, twice as much as last year, how could so much planting area be destroyed if it was destroyed.
"Yu Chixiong said that a flash flood suddenly broke out in the valley and drowned the immortals." The prince waved his hand weakly, "There has been no flash flood for so many years, why did it happen this year?" I suspect it's man-made, but if it's really man-made, I'm afraid that someone will know about the fairy drunkenness, and also know our plans, and it's even more terrifying. In case someone informs my father about this, I'm afraid ......" Speaking of this, the crown prince couldn't help but shudder, although his father connived at him, but limited to him to keep his duty, although there were some small actions, but as long as it was harmless, the father only turned a blind eye. If his father knew that he used immortal drunkenness to control the courtiers and secretly co-opt forces, he would definitely not let him go easily. Although his father is old, his methods are still fierce and ruthless, and if there really is such a day, the prince does not dare to imagine his final result.
"The slave thinks that the emperor will not know. The crown prince need not panic. Chang Xi comforted him, if the emperor knew, he would have come to the door a long time ago. How can there be kung fu to make the prince angry and flustered here.
Although the emperor is old, he is not confused, the prince uses fairy drunkenness to win over and control the courtiers, and it is indeed a bit inferior, which is despised, if the emperor really knows about this, no matter how much he likes the prince, how much he can't forget the prince's biological mother, Queen Duanjin, will definitely wipe his crown prince's position.
Seeing that the prince's face was still solemn, Chang Xi rolled his eyes, "You think, this immortal drunk was brought by us on an overseas island, it's only been a few years, how can anyone know this thing and know the role of this thing?" If he really knew, he shouldn't have destroyed it but stole it, we know the power of this thing, and to get it is to get a large sum of money and power. ”
Hearing what he said, the prince nodded slightly, leaned on the pillow behind him and closed his eyes for a long time before opening his eyes and saying, "King Gu doesn't know, but if Gu's other brothers get drunk with immortals, they will definitely use it to achieve their goals, just like me." ”
"You're right. Wei Chixiong should still have some inventory in his hand, plus what we have in our hands can be used for a long time, let's hurry up and strive to solve the problem before these things are used up, then even if you don't have the immortal drunk, you can sit back and relax. Chang Xi pointed to the roof, and the prince understood what he meant, squinting and not speaking.
"Take a step back, didn't you get this thing from an overseas island, it's a big deal to let Yu Chixiong go to sea again." Chang Xi's eyes suddenly lit up and said.
"It's easy for you to say, when Wei Chixiong searched for more than ten years before he found such a small island where the immortals were drunk, in order to keep it secret, he killed all the people on the island, and the immortals were all taken away, even if he found it again, it would be useless." The prince glanced at him lightly, obviously thinking that the idea was useless.
"Even if there is no small island, there are so many small islands overseas, the minion thinks that this thing cannot be found in only one place, we can continue to arrange for Yu Chixiong to go to sea to find it." Chang Xi has always been not very good with Yu Chixiong, both of them have followed the prince from the beginning, the reason why he became a eunuch is because of Yu Chixiong's back, he gave Yu Chixiong eye medicine whenever he had the opportunity. This time was no exception. It's really cheap for that old thing to keep adrift on the seas.
"I'll talk about this later, you arrange for someone to tell Yu Chixiong to send the immortal drunk in his hand to the capital as soon as possible, and let him send it in person, doesn't he have a group of martial arts masters in his hands, and he will also bring it into Beijing together, maybe it will be used when it will be." Seeing that the prince squinted and didn't speak for a long time, and his breathing became long, thinking that the prince was asleep, Chang Xi pulled a thin blanket for him, and was about to withdraw lightly, when the prince shouted from behind.
"In addition, this matter must be kept secret, all those who know can be killed will be killed, and those people in the capital must not know the news, you tell Wei Chixiong to hurry up." The prince frowned, his tone was a little impatient, and when he talked about Yu Chixiong, he was sullen for a while.
He did make a great contribution to Meng Qianluo's matter at the beginning, if it wasn't for him to win over Zhang Renhe and steal Meng Qianluo, I don't know whose position the crown prince would have been. Why did such a capable person suddenly make such a big mistake now, is it really that the gods are drunk and ruined their brains? It doesn't seem to be a good thing, and he must not eat it.
However, I heard that this thing can suppress pain, and a little bit of it may work when he has a poison attack. It's a pity that the immortals in his hands are not too drunk, and it is difficult to say whether he can continue to plant in the future.
"Yes." Chang Xi bowed out of the house and began to make arrangements.
A few days later, when Wei Chixiong received the news of his return to Beijing, he was visibly relieved. It seems that he is still useful, and the prince did not blame himself for such a big mistake. You must be careful in the future, the prince is not a good-tempered person, and if he annoys him, he will not have good fruit to eat.
Fortunately, he didn't tell the truth about the fairy drunk before and after the accident, and a few days after Han Wenbai was rescued that night, his subordinates told him that the fairy was drunk and there was a problem, and he was almost paralyzed. He knew that the prince had high hopes for this group of immortals, and he couldn't miss it at all, if something happened, the prince could chop him up.
He ran to the planting field tremblingly, and all the immortals were drunk and died. The death was very strange, jet black, and emitted a foul smell, as if it had been poured into a large amount of dung. The dung water can be poisonous and the immortal immortal is drunk, and he looked at it with a few craftsmen who are good at planting, and they said that they should have suffered a disaster.
The servant who took care of the immortal drunk was frightened and spoke unneatly, he told Yu Chixiong that the field was irrigated once a few days ago, that is, before and after someone made trouble in Baicao Valley, he thought that it was made by the person who managed the medicine field, and he didn't care, this season is hot, and the medicine field needs to be watered frequently, he can't ask every time, who would have thought that this time he watered too much, and he actually drowned the herb.
At that time, there was water in the medicine field, and a few of them who took care of the medicine field thought of many ways to drain the water, and finally drained the water, but they didn't expect to find that the herbs were dead before they could breathe a sigh of relief. They were afraid that Wei Chixiong would blame them for not being good at taking care of them, so they didn't dare to tell the truth.
Unable to find a specific reason, Wei Chixiong personally searched along the canal, and later found that the creek used for irrigation had burst, and he speculated that someone had poisoned the water, and then led the water to the fields, so these immortals would die when they were drunk.
Only he knew this conclusion, and no one dared to tell him, he felt that this matter must have nothing to do with the British Royal Mansion, and he had already sent someone to find evidence and prepare to pour dirty water on the British Royal Mansion. Unexpectedly, the prince did not blame him for letting him enter Beijing, he was surprised and delighted, and hesitated to continue to pour dirty water on the British Palace.
