Chapter 667: Atmosphere

The wave of anti-book revision caused by the earthquake was skillfully defused by Yun Yao, and at the same time promoted a wave of Zhu Nu research fever. Especially among the women in Chang'an, because there was a precedent for Princess Pingyang before, the society that studied Zhu Nu named itself the Women's Army to pay tribute to Princess Pingyang.

Huang Bixia covered her mouth and snickered when she found out, because Zhu Nu is not a princess, she lives here in a good manner, and there is no need to look for it from ancient books. But she won't tell anyone, it's her own little secret.

The ministers now also know how powerful the princess is, and it is really hateful that Her Royal Highness the princess does not fight them head-on, and directly instigates the family members. What is even more odious is that many ministers have given in in order to maintain family harmony, and only two ministers would rather divorce their wives than give in. But the two of them can't change the overall situation, but these two are completely opposite the princess.

Yun Yao didn't do anything to them, because even if he killed them, someone else would come forward later. There will always be people who use her as a stepping stone to a successful position, which is inevitable, and they will not lose regardless of success or failure anyway. It succeeded, and as now, the two ministers became the leaders of the anti-princess camp. If they fail, they will be able to make a name for themselves, and they will be able to make a name for themselves when the time comes.

So the easiest way is to ignore them, and if they want to oppose it, they will oppose it. When they make a mistake, they just have to catch them all.

What worries Yun Yao even more is that now Li Shimin has begun to superstitious about Fang Shi, it seems that he has felt the power of the years, and at his age, there must be all kinds of physical problems, and he must feel his irresistible aging day by day. He even asked Yun Yao if he had any elixir that could prolong life during the family banquet, and it seemed that he was still very confident in his daughter's alchemy skills.

Of course Yun Yao has, but it is written in the book of life and death that Li Shimin can be the emperor for thirty-three years, so if he messes up, he will modify Li Shimin's lifespan. Sure enough, people can't escape the hardships of birth, old age, sickness and death, so there are so many people who would rather give up everything to cultivate immortals, because the feeling of aging day by day is indeed terrifying.

Yes, but I can't give it, Yun Yao has invented a lot of pills so far, but there is no pill to delay aging. So Li Shimin found the old doctor Sun Simiao again, because he was a longevity doctor and asked about the mystery of longevity.

Sun Simiao said that to live a long life, you must learn to be normal, and then learn to breathe qigong, there is no difficulty, and you can easily live over one hundred and fourteen.

Li Shimin can't learn, he manages national affairs, and he is intriguing with others every day, how can he be calm. Qigong was learned, but it didn't have any effect. So in the end, the science and medicine represented by Yun Yao and Sun Simiao couldn't help themselves, so they could only look for the help of metaphysics, that is, to find Fangshi.

Fangshi have been there since the Spring and Autumn Period, and their job is to refine the elixir, and in the Tang Dynasty, because of the popularity of Taoism, there were countless nobles who made alchemy, and many people died by taking pills. The young Li Shimin was also dismissive of Fang Shi, but in the face of irresistible years, he also engaged in metaphysics.

After receiving the support of the emperor, these magicians began to engage in superstitious activities, saying that their elixirs could cure all diseases, but unfortunately their elixirs were expensive and had no effect. provoked Sun Simiao to break his normal heart, he found Yun Yao and complained: "These monks are all liars, their pills are poisonous, and people who will die if they eat them." If it is an ordinary pill, how can a poisonous pill be sold? Your Highness, you must persuade Your Majesty. Birth, old age, sickness and death are the norm, and we must not pursue immortality. ”

Yun Yao smiled bitterly, the old emperor would hope that he could continue to control everything, but the fact is that he can't control it, so the monarch will indirectly manage the government through courtiers at the end of the period. In fact, it is also very simple, because the hundred officials will be disobedient when they see that the monarch is old, and the monarch has to support new forces against the hundred officials.

Li Shimin didn't necessarily know that the Fang Shi were liars, but the older he got, the more he relied on these Fang Shi. In fact, it is the same reason to replace the Fang Shi with the ministers, eunuchs, and excellent lings, because the emperor needs them to control the ministers.

Li Shimin is old, so he naturally has to face this problem, so he may not really want to refine the elixir, but it is very likely to build a new force as a trade-off. Therefore, Yun Yao may not be able to persuade him, after all, Li Shimin must have his own considerations.

"Since my father has found a priest, it must be because the priest is useful to him. Fang Shi lied to people, he must also know that since he acquiesced, it was useless for anyone to persuade him. ”

Sun Simiao was anxious, and hurriedly said, "But it will eat the dead." ”

"There's no need to worry, buying such an expensive medicine doesn't necessarily mean eating, it may also be a bribe in disguise." Yun Yao said that ordinary people can't afford this medicine, and those who can afford it are not necessarily stupid enough to take medicine. So she said optimistically: "I think after so many years of hard work, everyone from the palace nobles to the people of Li should understand the truth that they should see a doctor when they are sick." So I think they don't necessarily buy pills to eat, it's more likely to be an attitude. ”

"Is it complicated?" Sun Simiao didn't expect that there was also a complicated court dispute behind a simple Fang Shi deception? He didn't think it would be so complicated, maybe it was just simple superstition, so he said: "There used to be a popular medicine called Wushisan, and it didn't have any effect, but there were many people who ate it, so I think maybe it wasn't so complicated, that is, some people wanted to take pills, and they believed in it." And once this kind of atmosphere is formed, others will follow suit, and more alchemists will join, and then not only the rich will buy medicine, but even the common people will have channels, and there will always be stupid brains at that time. "Sun Simiao is loving stupid people and being benevolent.

Yun Yao didn't take into account that once the atmosphere was formed, the stupid people of Xi Shi would definitely come out. Maybe the high-end alchemists and buyers are bribes from the court, but when it comes to the people, it is simply cheating, and the fools who are deceived will definitely take medicine, and there will definitely be unlucky people who are unlucky to die.

Even if they are stupid, Sun Simiao wants to save their lives. Yun Yao is ashamed of herself, she always thinks about development, but she never cares about the disadvantaged group of stupid people.

Education is still not enough, there are too few crooks, too many stupid people.

So kill the source? Li Shimin probably won't be happy, after all, Fang Shi is useful to him. The alchemy of the nobles became popular, and Li Shimin's joining the alchemy industry can be regarded as a form of contract, and they can reach a simple alliance through alchemy.

Therefore, Fang Shi is really useful, on the one hand, he can control hundreds of officials, and on the other hand, he can form an alliance with the nobles. In times of physical weakness, the emperor's rule can be maintained.

"The old doctor is thoughtful." Although Yunyao is dedicated to development and promoting education little by little, she forgets that development is a great cause of hundreds of years, not overnight, and it takes time. But at the moment, there are stupid people waiting to be saved, and they can't sit idly by, if the wind of Fangshi rises, it will be the same as the era of the five stones scattered in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, so we should still take care of Fangshi.

But the emperor does need Fangshi, and if there is something good at the top, it will be very difficult at the bottom. The virtue of a gentleman, the wind, the virtue of a villain, the grass, the wind of the grass, will die. When the grass encounters the wind, it will inevitably fall. The villain here is either a scolding person, or a person of low status, and a gentleman is a person of high status.
