In the book, the princess of the fallen country saved the country by eating melons

Mo Jinyi held Mo Sheng's hand tightly, he pursed his lips and asked the person in his arms in a restrained tone.

"Sheng'er, will this have any impact on you?"

Mo Sheng was a little confused by her father's sudden question.

What had no effect on her, she then realized what her father had said.

Mo Sheng grinned and showed his two teeth.

[Father, don't worry. This matter has no impact on me. These powerful weapons will appear in the world sooner or later. I just advanced the technology a little bit.]

[Besides, I only know the general idea. Whether it will be successful or not depends on these people’s research.]

Mo Jinyi nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

"Then I will send some people to find out the specific situation of Jinzhou City and the current status of the officials here."

[Okay, okay, there’s no rush now. Let’s prioritize solving the current situation in Jinzhou City.]

[In this case, Jinzhou City must be abandoned]

Mo Jinyi looked out of the car window and saw the blind and impetuous looks of these people, and he laughed out of anger.

He didn't believe that there wasn't someone with ulterior motives stirring things up.

Since he's having a hard time, then no one should have an easy time either.

He knocked on the car window.

"master?"

Li Desheng heard the sound and rode his horse closer to the carriage.

"Send a message back so that other countries can have some fun."

Li Desheng looked indifferent and knocked on the car window in response.

Then he rode down to deliver the message with a faint smile on his face.

There are many good shows to watch now. It has been a long time since he last saw such a wonderful drama.

The secret guards hiding in the crowd in the distance saw a faint smile on Li Desheng's face.

Looking at each other.

"Eunuch Li has shown such a kind smile again. I wonder who is going to be in trouble again."

"Don't pay attention to what you shouldn't pay attention to. We just need to protect the master."

The other one curled his lips, stopped talking, and continued to be alert to any movement around him.

Yuelai Inn

Mo Sheng and his companions' carriage stopped outside the door.

[We are finally here. This journey has been so difficult.]

Mo Sheng was carried down from the carriage by Mo Jinyi. She sighed as she looked at the bustling inn.

System: [My little master, your aloof personality has collapsed to the point where not even a slag is left]

[Do I have a character setting? How come I don’t know?]

Mo Sheng asked back.

System: [Then why were you so aloof before? Could it be that you were aloof because we were not familiar with each other before, but now that we are familiar with each other, you don’t care anymore?]

Seeing the two little ones quarreling, Mo Jinyi smiled, shook his head, and carried her into the inn.

The waiter in the store noticed them come in and greeted them warmly.

"Guan Yi, how about you guys? Are you staying overnight or staying in the hotel?"

Li Desheng stepped forward and spoke gently to the waiter with a smile.

"Waiter, ask your shopkeeper to come out. He said a distinguished guest is here."

The waiter nodded blankly and turned to find their shopkeeper. He had a hunch that these people were not easy to deal with, so for the sake of his life he decided to let their shopkeeper deal with it.

When the waiter went to find their shopkeeper, Shopkeeper Liu had just seen off the Jinzhou governor and others from another corner gate and was walking into the store.

"Boss, someone in the hall is looking for you. They say a distinguished guest is coming."

Shopkeeper Liu's face turned serious. He slapped the waiter on the head and said with some regret.

"Distinguished guest? Don't you know how to entertain?"

The waiter said aggrievedly.

"The aura around these people seems to be difficult to deal with. They specifically asked to see you, and even a villain cannot afford to offend you."

Shopkeeper Liu was so angry at the waiter's aggrieved look that his hands were shaking. He pointed at the waiter and shook for a long time, then scolded him with a helpless smile.

"Wait for me, I will come back to deal with you after I finish the reception."

Manager Liu walked quickly to the lobby of the inn and saw a group of people with extraordinary temperament sitting on one side of the door. He stopped and smiled and walked towards them quickly.

"I don't know where the distinguished guests are coming from. I am the innkeeper of this inn. My surname is Liu. I am sorry for not welcoming you from afar. I would like to apologize to you all."

Mo Sheng saw from afar a man in a purple robe walking quickly towards him, with his hair tied up with a simple wooden hairpin.

The person who came actually had a baby face with a very warm smile on his face. He looked very innocent, but the gleam in his eyes that flashed from time to time could not escape Mo Sheng's eyes.

[Why does a good old fox pretend to be a pure white lamb?]

Seeing that the visitor had a calm expression, Li Desheng took out a token from his pocket and handed it to Manager Liu.

"Manager Liu, there's no need to apologize. Just take a look at this sign."

Shopkeeper Liu was stunned and the smile on his face faded slightly. He looked at Li Desheng inquiringly, then took the sign and looked at it carefully.

The expression in his eyes changed slightly, and after looking carefully at Li Desheng and others, he saw the affirmative look in Li Desheng's gentle smile.

He laughed out loud, and the enthusiasm on his face became even greater.

"So you are the boss's friend. The boss was asking about it earlier. Come on, the boss has reserved Room No. 1 for you. I will take you there right away."

Shopkeeper Liu enthusiastically led the way, taking Mo Jinyi and others to Room No. 1 on the top floor.

As they walked, they enthusiastically got close to Mo Jinyi and the others.

"Dear guest, you have come to Jinzhou at the right time. Jinzhou is very lively these days."

At Mo Jinyi's signal, Li Desheng smiled and chatted with Manager Liu.

"Why? We were talking about this. Today's entry into Jinzhou is different from previous times. Everywhere is blocked by enemies."

"In the past, Jinzhou City was relatively smooth, but recently there was an alchemy competition in Jinzhou City, and the governor invited sorcerers from all over the world to participate in this competition, so there were more people."

Li Desheng nodded, indicating that he understood, and continued to search for other information.

The guests dining in the hall below watched them walk upstairs without any conflict.

He withdrew his gaze from watching the fun.

"No wonder these people are so arrogant, they turned out to be friends of the owner of Yuelai Inn."

Some of them discussed in whispers.

"I heard that there is some power behind this Yuelai Inn, otherwise it wouldn't have been able to survive in Jinzhou for so long."

"So, these people are also members of a certain force?"

"We don't know about these. Okay, okay, let's not discuss this anymore. Be careful not to get into trouble."

"Yeah, eat the food."

Everyone fell silent. Those who had been listening quietly looked at each other, shook their heads, and started eating in silence.

Occasionally, those who were suspicious would look up at the quiet floor above with a gleam in their eyes and smile.

On the top floor, Manager Liu pushed the door and led Mo Jinyi and others in, before Mo Jinyi could hold Mo Sheng and sit down.

Shopkeeper Liu put away the smile on his face, knelt on one knee, and respectfully apologized to Mo Jinyi.

"Master, please forgive me. I was rude just now."

Mo Jinyi held Mo Sheng in his arms and sat on the armchair in the room. He glanced at the person kneeling on the ground, then took the water handed to him by Li Desheng and started drinking it.

[Father, I want to drink too]

Mo Sheng stretched out her hand to grab Mo Jinyi's hand, indicating that she also wanted to drink water.

Seeing her impatient look, Mo Jinyi chuckled, lowered the teacup in his hand and slowly fed Mo Sheng water.

When she didn't want to drink anymore, he looked at the person kneeling on the ground.

"Alright, get up. It's understandable. The situation was urgent. You handled it very well. How could I blame you?"

Shopkeeper Liu heaved a sigh of relief, lowered his head and stood up.

"Tell me, what's going on in Jinzhou?"

Shopkeeper Liu slowly told Mo Jinyi the information they had collected.

"My Lord, swindlers have been rampant in Jinzhou City since last year. They are swindling people all over the city.

There were also some scammers who set up sects and Taoist temples in Jinzhou city.

These people package themselves very beautifully, wear gorgeous clothes on special occasions every day, and use some magic tricks, internal strength, and occasionally find a few people to fulfill their wishes, and encourage these people to believe in and worship them.

When the common people saw that some people really succeeded, they believed it to be true and stopped working every day, only praying to gods and Buddhas.

Some even sell their children and lose everything they have.

Some alchemists seemed to have some real skills, and they claimed that they could make elixirs that could make people immortal. Even the Jinzhou governor Meng Qiyuan and others believed in this and followed him around every day to ask for elixirs and medicines. "

"boom"

Mo Jinyi placed the cup in his hand heavily on the table, his face dark and his eyes filled with a hint of anger.

“How audacious!!!”

Mo Sheng was startled by his sudden anger. Why was this man so emotionally unstable and disturbing her from enjoying the melon?

She rolled her eyes and said soothingly to her father.

[Father, don't be so quick to get angry. Wait until the other person has finished talking before you get angry all at once, okay? If you get angry intermittently like this, you'll easily suffer from neurasthenia.]

Seeing this, Li Desheng hurried forward to comfort him.

"Master, calm down."

Seeing this, Shopkeeper Liu didn't know whether he should continue speaking.

Mo Jinyi took a deep breath, suppressing his anger.

"go on."

Manager Liu did not hesitate and continued to report what he had investigated.

"Lord Meng has a Taoist priest named Wu Bufan who he hired at great expense. He claims to be an immortal cultivator who learned from Taoist Qingming. He came down the mountain this time to help people overcome difficulties and accumulate merits.

Based on the interactions between his subordinates and him and the observations of his subordinates, this person does know a little bit.

Especially the pills he refined, eating them can really make people younger. I have seen it with my own eyes. After Lord Meng took them, he has been looking rosy-cheeked and full of energy every time he comes to my place recently.

Speaking of this, he also gave me one of these pills. I will show it to you."

Mo Jinyi waved his hand and motioned him to take it and study it. He wanted to see what was so magical about this pill.

In the space, Xiao Ba heard what Manager Liu said and lay on the ground laughing.

System: [Hahahahahaha, young master. How funny! Doesn't Wu Bufan feel guilty when he lies? The spiritual energy in this world is so thin that even if one cultivates the Tao, one may not be able to cultivate the Tao and Qi level, let alone cultivate immortality.

However, there are indeed a few people in this world who are good at fortune-telling. They will not appear easily. If they do appear, all dynasties and countries in this world will fall into chaos.

This Wu Bufan is not qualified.]

Mo Sheng also smiled and didn't think it was a big deal.

She had met so many of these people in her previous life.

She just wanted to see what the elixir was made of.

Still rosy-cheeked after eating?

[Xiao Ba, as far as I know, a lot of heavy metals were added to ancient elixirs. Could it be that the governor of Jinzhou was poisoned by heavy metals?]

System: [Young Master, wait for Manager Liu to bring the pills over and then Xiaoba will scan them and find out.]

Just as Mo Jinyi drank a cup of tea, Manager Liu came in with a tightly wrapped box.

Mo Sheng: “…………”

If you don’t know the packaging, you might think it’s some rare treasure.

Shopkeeper Liu carefully opened the box layer by layer.

Mo Sheng was stunned.

[If you don’t know, you might think I’m peeling an onion]

Mo Jinyi discovered that he heard another term he had never heard of before.

What is this onion? What is its function? Why is it wrapped in layers?

When Shopkeeper Liu opened the box completely, he saw a round scarlet pill lying inside.

Mo Jinyi, Li Desheng and Mo Sheng saw the pill and moved closer tacitly.

Everyone wanted to take a closer look at what was so magical about this so-called elixir that could make people live forever.

Mo Jinyi was just about to reach out and pick up the pill to study it carefully.

Xiao Ba's scan results are out, and it speaks in time.

System: [This pill contains saltpeter, realgar, sulfur, stalactites, ginseng, ganoderma, astragalus, virgin blood, boy's urine, and philtrum.]

Finally, Xiao Ba made a mischievous summary.

System: [My little master, this does contain a lot of heavy metals. Taking a large amount will cause harm.

Don’t take this kind of dirty stuff, just let your father take it.]

Ever since Mo Sheng learned the recipe from Xiao Ba, an expression of disgust was evident on his face.

She leaned back hard to get away from the dirty thing.

[It seems that the refining of this elixir is similar to the refining of ancient elixirs in my previous world.]

[So, there is a high probability that these people can make gunpowder]

The corners of Mo Jinyi's mouth twitched. This little elf, how come his hands are not hands?

But what is the gunpowder that Sheng'er is talking about? It is both fire and medicine. What is its function?

Mo Jinyi had more and more questions piling up in his mind, but he didn't have time to ask them now, so he could only let the questions linger in his mind.

He slowly withdrew his hand that was about to take Dan's and motioned Li Desheng to give him the handkerchief so that he could wipe his hands.

Li Desheng didn't expect His Majesty to do this. Could this medicine be more valuable than His Majesty's gold? Why did His Majesty reach out to take it and even intend to wash his hands?

He didn't ask, but silently took out a wrung-out handkerchief and handed it to Mo Jinyi to wipe his hands.

Then Li Desheng saw His Majesty, who was about to reach out to take the pill, put his hand down.

There was a hint of disdain for the pill on his face. Li Desheng's heart sank. Could there be something wrong with the pill?

And why does the little princess have a look of disgust on her face?

"Your Majesty...but what's the problem with this pill?"

Mo Jinyi spoke to Li Desheng in a cold tone.

"Send Doctor Qiao over here and have him check this pill."

Li Desheng received the order and went out to look for someone.

Shopkeeper Liu faced the highest authority in Beiyun alone. He was somewhat frightened, and his baby face showed a cautious tentative expression.
