"Uncontrollable emotions?" Xiang Liang was instinctively surprised. After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Bei Yan, but saw Bei Yan shaking his head slightly at him with a rather strange expression. "It happened suddenly, and it's normal for Mr. Mu to be a little agitated. But..." Bei Yan licked his lips and didn't continue.Even if he tries to bridge the gap, he really can't explain Mu Chen's unbelievable mood swings more than half an hour ago.In fact, when they withdrew from the other courtyard one by one, Mu Chen's demeanor was quite calm, but after only talking with Xiao Xuan for a while, after being baffled by the drug man, he suddenly became furious and couldn't restrain himself. Even the conversation was forced to stop, leaving Xiao Xuan behind and retreating to the second floor.But now that he was a little calmer, Mu Chen's face was suddenly lost, as if he was greatly confused by the fierce attitude he couldn't control before.He couldn't help but glanced up, and even couldn't help but feel a little panic in his heart.In front of such a weird medicine man, it is difficult to think about the good if you can't control your emotions.Bei Yan and Xiang Liang looked at each other, and let Mu Chen stay in place to guard Du Heng, while the two went up the stairs, bypassing the auspicious clouds and auspicious beasts carved like clusters of flowers on the stairs, and stepped onto the highest floor of the attic one after another.This attic was originally used for the owner to climb up and look into the distance when he was resting, so the highest part was built extraordinarily spacious and bright, and the decoration was extraordinarily elegant and meticulous.Surrounded by many precious ornaments, the medicine man on the bed behind the screen, wearing clothes and half leaning on the embroidered pier, is also dressed in elegant clothes and elegant, just like a noble son of a wealthy family.Xiao Xuan slightly propped up her half body on the embroidered pier, looked up and saw the unsteady expressions of the two, she smiled slightly: "The kid is not feeling well, so please forgive me for my negligence. It's just—" His eyes turned to After Liang Liang slipped around, "Does His Royal Highness Hengyang still have anger left?" Mu Chen led someone to ask about the hallucinogenic effect of the elixir, but Xiao Xuanyan was so angry that he left in a huff.Bei Yan couldn't help but squinted his eyes when he heard this, thinking that this kid has a loose tone, maybe he thinks he can do whatever he wants with the elixir in his hands, and now that he keeps talking about Hengyang King, does he still want Mu Chen to come back and confess to him?Does Mu Chen really want to lose face?So Bei Yan said directly: "Your Highness feels a little unwell and is recuperating downstairs. However, I was in a bad mood earlier, and my words were inappropriate. I really offended you. The two of us left and returned, it was the order of the Lord, Talk to Mr. Xiao to express your guilt..."——Mu Chen didn't know whether he wanted to lose face, but it wasn't his own face to lose anyway, Xiao Xuan's complexion changed immediately.He looked around, and his tone was shocked: "What?!" He concentrated carefully, and looked at Bei Yan from top to bottom: "——Why?" Bei Yan's face was very calm, and his tone was equally calm: "Because Now, the King of Hengyang—and us—suddenly want to know the secrets of the elixir.” The style of writing in the Middle Ages was euphemistic, and no one had ever been able to say the words “watching people eat dishes” so simply and rudely.So Xiao Xuan's expression changed several times due to choking, and she finally nodded. "Okay, I'll tell you." Bei Yan didn't speak, but just bowed to him.Xiao Xuan stared at him, and sighed long: "Don't worry, I will never tell a lie." He said angrily: "The King of Hengyang can actually lose face because of these news, if he keeps concealing, the consequences will be disastrous I know. Why should I have to hide the pearls and keep these things.” After he finished speaking, he sighed again, but he was still a little perplexed in his heart—now that the Nine Ranks are rampant in the world, Shilin’s prestige is as high as a thousand, and his reputation is extremely high. It is equal to the life of a scholar.To be able to treat face and reputation without any scruples like this, one is either a lowly idiot, or a hero with a big picture, and there are so many city gullies in his chest.It's just...Xiao Xuan thought carefully about King Hengyang's daily behavior, and always felt that that... seems to have nothing to do with these two...?He looked up, just in time to see Bei Yan showing him a very peaceful smile. After Xiao Xuan agreed to confess, Xiang Liang went out immediately and asked someone to bring a pen and paper for recording.It's just that when she passed by Bei Yan, she couldn't help but cast a weird look at him.However, Bei Yan himself was at ease, and he didn't take this look seriously.Bei Yan knew it in his own mind, knowing that as long as he could get the news out of Xiao Xuan's mouth, Mu Chen would be overjoyed; even if there were one or two slanderous ministers, it would be nothing but a trivial matter.Sure enough, Xiang Liang didn't do anything other than glance at him emotionally.He moved a wooden table and laid out paper and pens, and made a posture of listening attentively to Xiao Xuan.Sure enough, Xiao Xuan sighed, and changed her position on the couch: "What do you want to know?" Bei Yan said straightforwardly: "Tell us the origin of the elixir." "I don't know this, and no one will know." Xiao Xuan He said bluntly: "This kind of elixir has been held in the hands of the sage, and it is not for the courtiers to intervene. However, before I was sent to the palace to test the medicine, I had vaguely heard rumors from the guards, saying that it was from a group of money-seekers. The news from the captain's mouth." Xiang Liang frowned, remembering Du Heng's account of the strange connection between this fungus and that weird alchemist Xin Yuanping, so he kept waving his hands to record this sentence, and typed it by the way. A small emphasis mark.Bei Yan said: "Sent to the palace to test medicine? How many pills have you taken?" "I didn't take pills." Xiao Xuan shook her head and said: "The emperor Shenwu Shengwen of the Southern Dynasty was sick in his old age, and he was more anxious to seek longevity. Searching the world and searching for alchemy, it was very difficult to find clues from the mouths of several repeat offenders, Captain Mojin. These tomb robbers confessed that they had robbed the tombs of successive princes in Guanzhong, and found many lifelike and incorruptible tombs in the coffins. An unbreakable corpse. Most of the tomb robbers know a little bit of metaphysics. They were naturally shocked when they saw this vision, and they all thought it was the remains of an immortal corpse. These people stole the corpse and searched carefully, and found a bright red in the mouth. The mosses were carefully sealed up, and they were called 'fairy medicine'..." After all, Xiao Xuan was just recovering from a serious illness, and when he mentioned the key points, his emotions were agitated, and he couldn't help but bowed his head and coughed again and again.He stroked his chest and took a breath, leaned back on the couch again, and said in a low voice: "We were selected into the palace, and we took this 'immortal medicine." Bei Yan frowned: "What is the result?" "Ten There is no nine." Xiao Xuan said: "The medicinal effect of this thing is extremely strong, after taking a small amount, the heartbeat will be unstoppable, and the eyes will be hot, and even give birth to various hallucinations. But the alchemist who refines the medicine said that it is the heart demon of ordinary people, insisting The dose of the medicine should be increased. As a result, the prisoners who tested the medicine for the emperor went mad and died in a variety of strange ways. However, the news from the torture is quite accurate. , and none of the corpses will be corrupted. It is also because of this that Emperor Shenwu Shengwen has never forgotten the magic medicine, and has been dreaming about it... After trying a hundred times like this, finally an alchemist found inspiration from the classics, claiming that adults are stained by mortal dust, It is no longer possible to get rid of the inner demons, and we must choose babies who are still ignorant and have no vitality, what is called the "Baby Rebirth Method"." Bei Yan's eyebrows frowned even tighter, it stands to reason that this is really a horrific tragedy, but he thought carefully , but instinctively realized something was wrong: "If you were selected into the palace as a medicine man when you were a baby, how could you remember these details? Could it be that the emperor would have to record such things in detail?" Bei Yan sneered: " This story is too clumsy to make up!" Xiao Xuan didn't think it was embarrassing, and even calmed down, with a calm expression: "Your Excellency is too impatient, I never said that this baby is me." He said calmly: "I am in Shenwu Emperor Shengwen was elected to the palace in 11 years, and he was only sixteen or seventeen years old. Counting from then to now, it has been at least 20 years..." He raised his eyes and glanced at Bei Yan and Xiang Liang's horrified, almost unbelievable expression, and that thin and handsome young man's face that shone brightly in his gaze, finally showed a smile: "—so, the so-called 'baby-returning method' is still useful after all, Right?" Bei Yan suppressed the violent wind and waves in his heart, turned his head and glanced at Xiang Liang who was dignified and writing quickly after regaining his senses, and finally said in a low voice: "Then...the baby who was sent to the palace to test medicine, Who is it?" Xiao Xuan's eyes flickered, but she smiled even more strangely: "Of course it's His Royal Highness Prince Hengyang—oh no, at that time Emperor Xiaozhangwu of the Ming Dynasty hadn't been Qing Emperor and became a great treasure, His Royal Highness King Hengyang was just a mere son of the clan , a Doctor Jinzi Guanglu..."
