Jiangmen Tianjiao: Reborn with funny ancestors
Chapter 515 Elixir
In Prince Ning's Mansion, Lu Yunqi shooed away the servants, and even the phantoms rushed to the courtyard to guard, leaving Dr. Xu, the doctor of Prince Ning's Mansion, alone.
"Old Xu, I know you have learned some skills from Xie Rong'an."
The doctor hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, I did follow Master Xie before. No, Xie Rong'an studied medical skills for a period of time, but that was just to take care of the prince when Xie Rong'an was away.
The villain didn't know that Xie Rongan was a spy at the time! "
Lu Yunqi raised his hand, asked Doctor Xu to stand up, and comforted him: "Of course I know you are not Xie Rongan's, otherwise I wouldn't have kept you here today.
I’m asking you, have you learned Xie Rongan’s art of identifying poisons? "
Doctor Xu hesitated for a while, but when Lu Yunqi's face turned cold, he said, "I have learned a lot. In the past, everything given to the prince in the palace must be tested for poison first."
Lu Yunqi took out a box from the side of his pillow, handed it to Doctor Xu and said, "Just test it in this room. Is this pill poisonous?"
Dr. Xu took out a pill from the box, first looked at its color, then smelled it, then used a knife to scrape off some powder, put it into a cup of water, stirred it, observed the sediment, and finally tasted a little bit with his tongue. .
Lu Yunqi watched the whole process carefully without making a sound.
When he saw Doctor Xu's expression becoming more and more solemn, Lu Yunqi clenched his fists, expecting the answer to be as he guessed.
"My lord, where did you get this elixir? You must not take it."
Lu Yunqi leaned forward sharply and asked urgently: "What's the matter? It's poisonous?"
Doctor Xu shook his head and said: "Strictly speaking, it is not considered poison. This is a Taoist elixir, and there is nothing wrong with the ingredients used in the formula. However, the cinnabar content in it is slightly higher."
Seeing that Lu Yunqi didn't seem to understand, Doctor Xu continued to explain: "Taoist alchemy uses cinnabar. An appropriate amount of cinnabar can treat strong heart fire and restlessness. We doctors encounter patients with palpitations, palpitations, insomnia and dreaminess. , Occasionally, cinnabar is added to the medicine. However, this cinnabar is born in Chen mine. If it is exposed to high temperature, it is more poisonous than arsenic, so you should not eat too much."
Lu Yunqi asked again: "How long will it take for your life to be in danger if you take this kind of elixir?"
Doctor Xu said: "If it is a normal elixir, it will be fatal after one or two years. But the amount of cinnabar in your elixir, my lord, is more than doubled. Although it is miraculous in treating symptoms such as insomnia and dreaminess, it is also much more toxic." More than twice that. With all due respect, if you take it continuously, it can take up to a year or as little as half a year, and it will definitely hurt people’s lives.”
Lu Yunqi looked frightened and ordered Dr. Xu: "You are not allowed to tell anyone what happened today, otherwise, your life will be at risk, do you understand?"
Doctor Xu only thought that this was another poison given to him by someone in the palace who wanted to harm Prince Ning and his son. Knowing that the stakes were high, he swore to keep it secret.
Lu Yunqi stayed alone in the room, holding the box of pills with a gloomy face.
From time to time, he smiled and murmured: "Brother, are you finally going to die? You have bullied me all your life, but you will eventually die before me."
Occasionally, he frowned again and said sadly: "This is obviously someone poisoning Lu Yunkui. Once Lu Yunkui dies, the person behind it will definitely have a plan."
This pill is exactly the box that Lu Yunkui rewarded Lu Yunqi when he entered the palace a few days ago.
After Lu Yunqi understood the poisonous secret in the elixir, he was restless. On the one hand, he had been tortured by his royal brother for a lifetime, and he felt a sense of revenge. On the other hand, he was worried that because of Lu Yunkui's death, the conspiracy of the person behind it would succeed. , harming the country and the country.
In the end, he chose to wait and see what happens. After all, Doctor Xu said that even if Lu Yunkui took this pill, he would be able to survive at least half a year.
But in fact, Lu Yunkui has been taking this elixir for almost three months, and recently developed diarrhea symptoms.
Lu Yunkui felt unwell, so he asked the prince Lu Yuanqing to help manage the affairs in the imperial study every day. When he was energetic, he would also give some advice.
Lu Yunkui was half-lying on the dragon couch, taking a nap. His already skinny cheeks looked even thinner. He slowly opened his eyes, his sunken eye sockets were cloudy. When he saw the scene in front of him clearly, he was still in the imperial study room, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, he dreamed that he was in the Ancestral Temple, trapped in a portrait, watching the Ancestral Temple on fire, and heard the fleeing eunuchs shouting: "The city is broken, the coalition forces of Dongyi and Xirong have invaded." Going to Beijing."
It was just a dream, but it was so real that Lu Yunkui felt chilled in his heart. He sat up and asked Lu Yuanqing, who was sitting on a small machine below to review the memorial: "Is there any memorial in the northwest?"
Lu Yuanqing hurriedly put down the ink pen in his hand and stood up to report back: "Urgent report from the northwest. Scouts sneaked into Xirong and learned that Xirong Khan Ashina Tuobo has mobilized an army of [-] troops and is about to march south. The urgent report has just been delivered. I am watching. It's rare for my father to sleep peacefully for a while, so I don't have the heart to wake him up."
After saying that, Lu Yuanqing reported the memorial that Chu Yan had just rushed to Beijing eight hundred miles away.
After reading Chu Yan's memorial and combining it with the scene in his dream, Lu Yunkui felt his head buzzing.
He asked anxiously: "Where is Chu Ge? Isn't Chu Ge in the northwest? Has he made any memorials?"
Lu Yuanqing reminded softly with some embarrassment: "Father, I just received the memorial from Marquis Liyang two days ago. Because my father issued an order to summon Lord Chu, the proud emperor of Chu, to return to the capital, Lord Chu was trapped by the autumn tax affairs and could not escape temporarily. Marquis Liyang asked for an order to return to Beijing on behalf of Master Chu, and he should be arriving in Beijing soon."
Lu Yunkui breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's good to be back. With Chu Ge here, the city will never be defeated when we go to Beijing!"
Lu Yuanqing was a little confused. Shouldn't he be worried about the loss of Northwest at this time? Why is the father worried about going to Beijing to be exposed?
No matter how powerful the Xirong people are, they can't cross the northwest and go straight to Beijing, right?
Lu Yuanqing did not dare to ask, but bowed and asked Lu Yunkui: "Father, Xirong has sent [-] troops, but the northwest has only [-] troops. What should we do?"
At this time, Lu Yunkui was suffering from dizziness, palpitations, and all kinds of problems. He shouted anxiously: "How do I know what to do? Didn't we just fight last year? The two countries just signed a friendship agreement. This Ashina Tuobaohao We have no credibility, and we are going to start another war! I have no money, no food, no soldiers, how can I fight this war?"
Lu Yuanqing did not expect Lu Yunkui to lose his temper like this. He was so shocked that he could only kneel down and ask the emperor to calm down.
"Chu Ge, yes, let someone rush to urge Chu Ge to speed up his journey and enter the palace immediately. Chu Ge must have a way. Didn't he just defeat the Xirong people last year?"
Lu Yuanqing helped Lu Yunkui summon people and immediately went out of the city to meet Marquis Liyang. After seeing Marquis Liyang, he announced that he would immediately enter the palace to meet the saint.
After asking the eunuch to announce the decree, Lu Yuanqing returned to the dragon bed and served Lu Yunkui to take another pill.
This elixir does have a miraculous effect on Lu Yunkui's heart palpitations and dizziness.
After Lu Yunkui took the medicine, his mood gradually calmed down.
He pointed to the pills in the box and said to Lu Yuanqing: "Prince, I heard that you have not been sleeping well during this period, and you have to review memorials for me every day. I will reward you with this box of pills."
Lu Yuanqing had just taken over the government affairs. He was under a lot of pressure every day, had little sleep time, and had many things to worry about. At this time, he also felt a little dizzy.
After thanking him, he took a pill from the box and drank it. He felt refreshed and couldn't help but ask Lu Yunkui: "Father, how many pills are there? Can you give me some more?" "
Lu Yunkui was not stingy with his son in this matter, so he generously asked the eunuch to convey the order, and asked the monk to refine more and give it to the prince.
