Chapter 503: People are all for the sake of profit

Ah Jiu was stunned, and after taking the brocade box and opening it, he found that it was a green pill.

A hint of pine and cypress fragrance mixed with other unknown medicinal fragrances came to the face.

"I don't know when I come out of Alain at night, so I have to rush back." After Aunt Xue finished speaking, she didn't even drink the tea and got up and left.

As soon as she got up, she coughed violently a few more times, and said with an elegant smile:

"I'm sorry, I've been suffering from a cold lately, so I'm leaving."

Ah Jiu was stunned, although she didn't know what this pill was, but she came in the middle of the night just to deliver this?

"If Aunt Xue has something important and you are in a hurry to go back, I will have someone send you back in a carriage."

As he spoke, he was about to go out and shout the flower bell.

"No need!" Aunt Xue hurriedly stopped: "I heard about the matter in the fairy temple today, I specially inquired about the Meng family, and learned that your eldest brother's life and death are uncertain, so I specially came to deliver medicine."

If Brother Ling can be healthy, don't hide it from the ninth girl, I still have important things to entrust, naturally, it is definitely within your ability, so the ninth girl, you don't have to be polite to accept this pill. ”

Saying that, Aunt Xue didn't listen to Ah Jiu's arrangement and left in a hurry.

Ah Jiu retracted his gaze and looked at the green pill in the brocade box.

Xue Zhen quietly sat in front of Ah Jiu: "This is the Resurrection Pill for the Dead." ”

Ah Jiu was stunned: "As the name suggests? Can it come back to life? ”

"Yes, I didn't want to be too ostentatious in the palace back then, and I was a nobody under the King of Qintianjian for a day, and I saw that he had practiced such an elixir, but it was just ......"

As he spoke, Xue Zhen's sigh followed, he pinched Aunt Fang Caixue's untouched tea bowl, carefully observed the brown color, and said lightly:

"It's just that there are only three such pills in the world, and she actually gave you one."

Ah Jiu pinched it up and squinted his eyes and examined it: "Yes, she also said just now, if the eldest brother is healthy, she still has important things to entrust, it seems that it was not given to me for nothing, but Xue Zhen, this medicine is really good?" ”

"If it didn't work, Concubine Chang would have died long ago." Xue Zhen broke this connection in one sentence.

"Concubine Chang?" Ah Jiu was startled, and soon sat down with a blank look in his eyes: "It seems that she is really Concubine Chang." ”

I'm really afraid of something.

Ah Jiu pinched the teacup and took a sip to calm down.

Her fingers trembled a little, all in Xue Zhen's eyes:

"You don't have to worry, just don't know, but she saw me in the palace before, and it's still inconvenient for me to see her."

Xue Zhen saw that the little master was still thinking about something, and continued:

"I was in Qin Tianjian at that time, maybe the master didn't understand the affairs of the harem, at least all the ladies and concubines hoped to have power in the harem, and chose to get closer to some people in the previous dynasty.

Concubine Chang made friends with the King of Qin Tianjian for a day at the time of crisis, and then Concubine Chang's mother was beheaded, and Concubine Chang hanged herself as soon as she gave birth to a baby.

At that time, the apprentice was still young, and he didn't like to ask about idle things, the master said that I would send it over, and I didn't ask much about what it was, it seems that Concubine Chang took this pill to bring back to life. ”

All of this is very natural.

Ah Jiu was terrified when he heard it, and when Xue Zhen finished speaking, Ah Jiu exhaled the muffled breath: "So that's the case, it seems that this pill works." ”

Xue Zhen continued: "The second one is dedicated to the first emperor. ”

"............" Ah Jiu's heart sank: "But the first emperor is dead." ”

I'll go, is this elixir useful?

There are three in total, this is like drawing lots, one is alive, one is dead, Ah Jiu suddenly became complicated.

"Yes, Master, you reminded me."

Xue Zhen's gaze became solemn:

"The emperor was seriously ill at the time, if this medicine worked, why did he die faster? If it's useless, why did Concubine Chang come back to life? ”

Ah Jiu suddenly blurted out: "Fake medicine." ”

"Yes, it's not just fake medicine, it's possible that someone has replaced it with poison." Xue Zhen said categorically:

"Later, the first emperor fell, the king of Qintianjian was sentenced to death for a day, and the Meng family was beheaded all over the house, one of which was the crime of colluding with the king of Qintianjian for a day, of course, it was the official who was bought by the prince at that time, that is, the current king of Huachang."

Ah Jiu frowned: "Xue Zhen, do you think it will be Concubine Chang who will really drop the bag?" ”

"Impossible." Xue Zhen stood up and paced a few steps with his hands behind his back: "If it is found out, it will definitely affect the Meng family, Concubine Chang will not do this, and besides, Concubine Chang's mother family is a veteran of the three dynasties, and she has made meritorious contributions from generation to generation, and the emperor loves Concubine Chang like a daughter, otherwise how could she try her best to canonize Concubine Chang as the queen before she died, which is not only the merit of the Meng family." ”

Ah Jiu exhaled: "The human heart is really sinister. ”

"People are all for profit, and there is no profit for nothing, which is exactly what it means."
