On the way back, Zhao Qiyang and Mu Chen chatted and laughed.

Suddenly, Mu Chen sensed that something was wrong, because the voices of people nearby seemed to disappear, and the carriage also stopped.

"Groom, why don't you leave?"

Zhao Qiyang shouted outside, but no one answered.

Mu Chen's complexion changed suddenly, and he grabbed Zhao Qiyang and quickly rushed out of the carriage.

And at the moment when the two of them left the carriage, the carriage behind exploded, igniting a raging fire, and the two tall horses were frightened and broke free from their restraints and galloped away into the distance.

Looking at the burning carriage, Zhao Qiyang's face also became extremely ugly.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen black-clothed people rushed out from the houses on both sides, each holding a sword and a deep breath.

"Up, don't leave a single one!"

The black-clothed man at the head gave an order, and everyone rushed towards Mu Chen and the others at the same time.

The corners of Mu Chen's mouth showed a wicked smile, dealing with these little thieves, it was a matter of being caught.

Mu Chen's figure rushed out, and in just an instant, he put all the dozen or so people to the ground.

Zhao Qiyang pulled out his long sword and stepped forward, and directly picked up the mask of the black-clothed man at the head, but unfortunately, he didn't know this person.

The long sword in his hand was also on the neck of the man in black, and he shouted angrily, "Say, who sent you here?" ”

The black man looked at Zhao Qiyang and showed a sneer, and the next moment he bit hard, and the corners of his mouth were bleeding and he died directly, and then, more than a dozen people in black died at the same time, and they all committed suicide by taking poison.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Qiyang's face also became more and more gloomy: "These bastards turned out to be dead soldiers of the palace. ”

"The palace dead?"

I seem to have thought of something, when I was in Qingzhou City, it seems that someone had instigated the terminal between him and Zhao Jiyang, and the dead guy was also a dead man.

Mu Chen raised his head, looked at Zhao Qiyang's contemplative appearance, and asked, "What did you think of?" ”

Zhao Qiyang nodded and said with a solemn face: "I do think of a person, it is my younger brother Zhao Kuoyang. ”

"The Second Prince?"

Mu Chen guessed the identity of the other party at once, because this emperor is the third son, and only the second son has not yet appeared.

"That's right, it's him, but my second brother is very clean and neat, and the group of dead soldiers he trained are also very obedient, and the most important thing is that he still has the support of the prime minister behind him, so we still have to be careful everywhere."

"I see."

night

The Imperial Palace, the Alchemy Room

A figure quietly entered this chic courtyard, the room was full of wine, and the old way was already snoring like thunder.

Mu Chen didn't talk nonsense, rushed directly into the room, and pressed the old Taoist priest to the ground.

And this sudden scene also startled the old man, who woke up most of the time, and lay on the ground begging for mercy.

"A good man spares his life, a good man spares his life, the money is under the bed, you take whatever you want, it doesn't matter if you take it all, as long as you don't hurt my life."

Mu Chen frowned, he didn't even notice the slightest bit of mystery in this old Daozi, and during the day, he thought that this old Dao was a master and could hide all his breath, but now it seems that this old Dao is not a Taoist master at all, just an ordinary person.

"You are not from the Daomen, why do you know how to alchemy, say."

Mu Chen pinched the old man's neck with one hand and threatened.

"I said, I, I don't know how to do alchemy at all, those pills are just the cheapest pills I bought from outside."

Mu Chen: ......

He was a little speechless, and thought that he could find a Taoist master and learn some alchemy techniques, it seemed that he was thinking too much, how could this Taoist master of alchemy stay here.

"Let me ask you, what's the matter with that poisonous ambergris, why did you add it to that elixir, who is just yours."

I wanted to make Lao Dao's whole body tremble, his eyes were full of panic, I originally thought that the other party was here to rob money, but I didn't expect to come for the poisonous ambergris, it seems that I have been recognized.

"I ...... I ......"

The old man was hesitant, but he couldn't say a word.

Mu Chen's face was gloomy, and the strength in his hands gradually increased.

"I'll kill you if you don't say anything."

"I said, I said, someone asked me to do tricks and feet in this medicine, and then slowly kill the emperor."

"Who's that guy?"

"I ...... I can't say, I'm going to die,"

Mu Chen snorted coldly, picked up the old man, and said with a hideous expression: "If you don't say it, I'll let you die now, and if you say it, I can still let you leave the capital alive." ”

Lao Dao struggled for a moment before he spoke: "Okay, I said, that person is ......"

However, as soon as the old Taoist was halfway through his words, his expression suddenly became extremely frightened, and a black flame continued to erupt outward along the surface of his body, and Mu Chen threw it directly to the ground.

In the next second, the black flame instantly engulfed Lao Dao, and in the screams of pain, he completely turned into a piece of flying ash.

Mu Chen frowned, this was the trick of the weak son, he turned around and rushed out of the door, but there was no one in the courtyard.

"No, such a big movement, why didn't those two Dao boys react?"

Thinking of this, Mu Chen hurriedly rushed to the side room, and when he pushed the door open, he found that the two Dao boys had already turned into ashes.

At this moment, Mu Chen felt a breath, turned around and immediately chased out.

When he saw the figure, he was shocked and said, "It's you!?" ”

Standing outside was the frail boy and his guard.

The weak boy was also full of surprise, and then laughed evilly: "Hehe, this is really a narrow road, you bastard actually ran to the palace, then you are looking for death, go and kill him for me." ”

At the command of the weak son, the guards beside him grew rapidly, and then turned into an extremely terrifying evil spirit covered in spikes.

Looking at his masterpiece, the weak boy smiled: "The kid tells you that this evil spirit is even stronger than the last time you saw it, so you can wait for me to die." ”

"Roar!"

The evil spirit roared angrily and rushed towards Mu Chen, and the fist with countless spikes smashed towards Mu Chen's head like a meteor.

Now Mu Chen didn't have the heart to accompany the guy to play here, above his palm, a black flame was burning, and as he shook it hard, the black flame filled the entire fist.

"Broken!"

Mu Chen let out a low roar, and the fist with terrifying black flames blasted forward.

Bang!

The moment the two collided, a terrifying heat wave swept around, and the devastating power directly shattered those evil spirits, and the black flames instantly devoured them and turned into nothingness.

With just a face, Mu Chen completely killed this evil spirit, he looked at his fist, this time he had tried his best to control the power of the world-destroying demon fire, but it still devoured a large amount of internal breath in his body, and even swallowed all the spiritual energy.

Luckily, he has several other types of internal breath that he can use.

And when Mu Chen came back to her senses, she found that her weak son was gone again.

He immediately unfolded his mind and searched for the location of the weak son.

And at this moment, the movement here also attracted the attention of a large number of guards, and hundreds of palace guards were swarming towards this side.

In order not to expose himself, Mu Chen could only leave first.

Following!

The news of the old Dao's killing immediately spread throughout the palace, and the old emperor was also very angry, as soon as the old dao died, no one would provide him with the elixir to become an immortal, and then, he immediately summoned Zhao Qiyang into the palace.

On the road, in the carriage

"Why did you kill that old man, as soon as he died, I can't tell you about the poisoning."

Zhao Qiyang sighed helplessly, originally thinking about finding out about the poisoning, but as soon as the old man died, there was no clue to this matter.

"It's not my hand, it's someone else, and the person behind it seems to be someone from the Holy Spirit Church."

"Holy Spirit Hall? It's disgusting that those guys are lurking in my palace. ”

Zhao Qiyang angrily shook his fist and smashed it on the carriage.

"You don't have to worry about this person, I'll find him out sooner or later."

Zhao Qiyang nodded, and then frowned: "There is still a very difficult thing to do, my father must have asked me to find a Taoist priest who can make alchemy this time, but where can I go to find it." ”

Zhao Qiyang sighed, he turned his head to look at Mu Chen: "Mu Chen, I thought of a good way." ”

"You don't want me to pretend to be that Taoist priest, do you?"

"Hehe, you're right, you know how to know what kind of poison it is, then there should be a way to detoxify, why don't we also buy some pills, and then add the antidote to it, so that we can remove my father's poison, so that's it."

In fact, this is also the solution that Mu Chen has in mind, since Zhao Qiyang proposed it himself, then he doesn't need to say any more, because Mu Chen has already prepared some pills, plus the medical skills of the Tianshan faction can definitely detoxify the old emperor.

Palace

The Imperial Study

Zhao Qiyang didn't hesitate to recommend Mu Chen.

Hearing Zhao Qiyang's words, the old emperor also sat up straight and squinted at Mu Chen: "Mrs. Mu, do you really know how to do alchemy?" ”

Mu Chen said: "Weichen has indeed learned some alchemy skills, and he is also familiar with some medical skills. ”

Hearing this, the old emperor was overjoyed: "That's great, from today on, in addition to serving as the crown prince and concubine, you will also be responsible for providing me with pills, understand?" ”

"Obey, Your Majesty, Weichen has two pills here, although it has no effect of prolonging life, but after taking it, it can strengthen the body and be as strong as a dragon and tiger."

Mu Chen's palm flipped, and two delicate wooden boxes appeared in his hands, and the moment the wooden box was opened, a stream of danxiang spread out and lingered in the room, not dispersing for a long time.

This is exactly the marrow cleansing and blood cleansing pill deduced by Mu Chen.

After smelling the danxiang, the whole room showed a look of shock, especially that Wei Qixian, this old guy's eyes lit up, he knew that this pill was definitely a good thing, and he had to get one to taste everything.

After seeing the elixir, the old emperor's eyes straightened, and he hurriedly said, "Quickly, quickly present it to me." ”

That Wei Qixian stepped forward quickly, took the pill in Mu Chen's hand, and handed it to the old emperor.

"Your Majesty, the origin of this elixir is unknown, why don't you try it for you first."

The old emperor also hesitated when he heard this, after all, this elixir was not the same as the one he had taken before, if something happened to his old life, it would be bad, although he established the prince, but he still wanted to live forever.

"Your Majesty, this elixir and even the masculine thing, Gonggong Wei is afraid that it is a little inappropriate, so it is better to let the prince test the medicine for you."

Mu Chen had already seen Wei Qixian's thoughts, of course he couldn't let this guy get it.

As soon as these words came out, Wei Qixian's face immediately became gloomy, and he glared at Mu Chen viciously, he knew that this Mu Chen was targeting him.

Of course, Mu Chen didn't give him a good look, and he glared back viciously.

Zhao Qiyang, who was on the side, said: "Father, let the sons and daughters come to help you test the medicine." ”

Zhao Qiyang got up and stepped forward, picked up one of the pills and put it in his mouth.

Seeing his son eat the pill, the old emperor was also full of nervousness,

In the next second, Zhao Qiyang's complexion changed, his eyes stared ahead, and he only felt that a force was surging in his body, as if he was about to break out of his body, and he had an urge to go out and fight a set of boxing techniques.

Looking at the power flowing above his hands, Zhao Qiyang was also shocked, he didn't expect that Mu Chen would really know how to refine the pill, but how did he know that this was actually the marrow cleansing and blood cleansing pill deduced by Mu Chen.

"Emperor, how is this elixir?"

The old emperor was still watching from the sidelines, and he also asked hurriedly.

"Father, there is no problem with this elixir, after taking it, the spirit of the sons has doubled, and now there is a force that makes it impossible to use it."

When the old emperor heard this, he immediately became excited, grabbed the elixir, and directly put it into his mouth.

The next moment, the old emperor's eyes widened, looking at Mu Chen incredibly, the surging power continued to swim in his body, as if driving away all the weakness in his body, and he felt that he had returned to his youth.

The old emperor slowly got up and got out of bed, and he tried to move two steps forward, moving his muscles and bones.

Under the gaze of several people, the old emperor actually played a set of boxing techniques, and the fist style was sassy and powerful.

And this scene also stunned everyone present, Wei Qixian was even more stunned, the dying old emperor who was still suffering from illness before actually became alive after eating this elixir, this is simply a miracle medicine.

"Good medicine, good medicine, this is really the best pill, more than a hundred times stronger than the medicine I took before, Mrs. Mu, no, Master Mu, I ordered you to refine this pill for me from today onwards, I feel that after eating your pill, I have become a vigorous tiger, I wonder how long it will take for your pill to refine one?"

"Back to Your Majesty, it takes seven days to refine such a furnace of elixir, and there are only two pills each time."

"What, has it been so long, but that's right, it's reasonable for such a magic medicine to take a long time, okay, then you can go and practice this elixir for me!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Come on, reward Mu Tianshi with 10,000 taels of gold."

After accepting the reward, Mu Chen and Zhao Qiyang also left the imperial study.

"Mu Chen, I didn't expect you to be able to refine the pill, your elixir is simply too godly, after I ate it, I felt that the power was constantly surging, and now I feel that I have inexhaustible power."

Zhao Qiyang said with some excitement.

"Yo, isn't this my dear big brother, you came early today!"

Just as Zhao Qiyang and Mu Chen were chatting, a voice interrupted their conversation.

Turning his head to look, Mu Chen's face changed, and the person who came turned out to be the weak son.

"It's you!"

Mu Chen's face changed, his figure rushed out quickly, and in the blink of an eye, he came to the weak boy and grabbed his collar.

"You bastard, look where you're going this time."

"Mu Chen, stop it!"

Zhao Qiyang hurriedly stepped forward to stop Mu Chen, and hurriedly said, "This is the second prince, you quickly put him down." ”

Mu Chen looked at Zhao Kuoyang in his hand with surprise on his face: "Second prince!?" ”

Zhao Kuoyang said with a smile: "I'm the second prince, don't hurry up and put me down." ”

Although Mu Chen wanted to do it very much, in this public, if he killed these two princes, he was afraid that it would be difficult to explain it clearly, and put it down.

"You are so bold, you dare to do it to the second prince, take this house down for me."

Wei Qixian, who was in the distance, had a gloomy face, and with an order, dozens of guards rushed up.

That Wei Qixian was holding a grudge for Mu Chen's insult to him before, but he didn't expect to be able to retaliate so soon.

And Zhao Kuoyang, who was standing on the side, said with a smile: "Forget it, Gonggong Wei, I think this Mu Gongzi should have mistaken me for some enemy, isn't it Mu Gongzi." ”

Mu Chen frowned, he didn't care about these guards, the main thing was that the second prince in front of him was too similar to the weak son, and it was exactly the same, could he really admit that he was wrong?

Mu Chen clasped his hands into fists and said, "I'm sorry Second Prince, I really recognized the wrong person here." ”

Zhao Kuoyang smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, I'm a very generous person, you don't have to take it to heart, oh yes, I heard that Mu Gongzi is now Mu Tianshi, I don't know if this prince can ask Mu Tianshi for medicine if he needs pills in the future." ”

"Waiting for you at any time!"

Mu Chen's eyes froze, staring at Zhao Kuoyang deadly.

"Okay, then I'll go to see my father first, the eldest brother of the crown prince, let's see you later."

Zhao Kuoyang smiled evilly, turned around and left.
