Before the interview, another search was conducted to make sure that Qiao Shi had no weapons on him before letting him in.

The meeting took place in the imperial study room. In addition to the emperor sitting above, several princes were also present.

The prince, the second prince and the third prince are all here.

In addition, Yang Cen, a Taoist priest who was highly valued by the emperor, was also there.

Yang Cen was very eloquent in front of the emperor and was deeply trusted by the emperor, but he was the second prince's man.

The previous emperor died so hastily, but this Taoist priest put in a lot of effort.

But although Yang Cen was said to belong to the second prince, he was actually introduced to the emperor by the third prince.

If something went wrong after the emperor took the elixir, it would be the third prince's fault.

I have to say that the second prince played his hand very well.

I will see your Majesty when I come to Penglai Qiao.

Qiao Shi bent down slightly but did not kneel down.

The second prince sneered inwardly and looked at the prince.

The idiot, the third child, probably didn't know that Yang Cen was his man, so naturally he wouldn't think about introducing a Taoist priest here.

I think the prince should have this possibility, but I don't know if this person who claims to be from Penglai really has that ability.

Be brave and don't kneel down when you see the emperor!

The eunuch in charge beside the emperor shouted sharply.

Qiao Shi didn't even raise his eyelids, but still lowered them lightly.

The emperor smiled gently and waved his hand.

It doesn't matter. You said you studied under Penglai Immortal Island. Do you have any evidence?

Although the emperor is already very old, his aura is unparalleled, even though he is smiling at this moment. His eyes were still extremely sharp.

He was looking at Joe up and down with scrutiny.

Qiao Shi wore a veil on his face, revealing only a pair of indifferent eyes, and the emotions in his eyes could not be seen clearly.

Whether there is evidence or not, it doesn't prove anything. I came here this time just because I came under the order of my master, but this is a karma between my master and the emperor.

Oh? Who is your master?

The emperor became interested.

Since it was cause and effect, it must be someone he had met before, or even someone he was somewhat familiar with.

My master's name is Taiqing. Your Majesty still remembers that fifty-three years ago, outside the old house, there was heavy snowfall, and he gave a steamed bun to a beggar.

What happened fifty-three years ago...

The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, and his thoughts seemed to go back decades ago.

Fifty-three years ago, he was just a poor boy in his teens, who couldn't even get a wife.

That day was the New Year's Day, and it snowed heavily all day and night outside the house. It was a thick layer, and steamed buns were rare at home. However, he found a beggar who had passed out on the ground at an unknown time outside the house.

The beggar was so cold that he felt compassion for him. He quietly put some straw on the beggar, fed him some hot water, and even gave him half of the steamed bun he finally got.

When he went out later, the beggar had disappeared. At that time, he was worried about being scolded by his family, so he never told anyone about it.

I can still recall it vaguely to this day.

Is your master the beggar?

The emperor already somewhat believed that more than fifty years had passed since this incident. He had almost forgotten about such a long time ago, and he had never told anyone about it.

Yes, my master had some problems while practicing. Fortunately, he was rescued by the emperor. In order to thank the emperor for his life-saving grace, my master specially sent me here to clarify the cause and effect.

Ning Ze felt a pang of sadness in his heart when he saw Qiao Shi's humble and silent expression.

It always felt like the person in front of him was talking serious nonsense, but he couldn't find any evidence.

The life-saving grace I received over fifty years ago was a lie!

Qiao Shi flipped his wrist, and a snow-white elixir appeared in his hand.

This is the product that Master spent decades of hard work refining. It can prolong life, and as long as there is still one breath, it can heal all injuries in the world.

Looking at the snow-white elixir in Qiao Shi's hand, Ning Ze's pupils shrank, he was absolutely convinced that he had already seen how powerful this elixir was.

After he came back, he asked the doctor in the mansion to check his body. Not only were the hidden wounds accumulated over the years gone, but even the chronic poisons he had been exposed to were cured. His health couldn't be better.

The emperor was also a little moved when he looked at the elixir in Qiao Shi's hand.

The second prince has been paying attention to the prince's expression. Before, the prince's expression had always been very dull, and no useful information could be seen.

When the pill was taken out, the prince's expression changed subtly in an instant. Although it was only a momentary change, he was still aware of it.

In other words, the prince knows this elixir.

It remains to be confirmed whether he is with this woman or not.

As for the elixir this woman took out, it was probably really good stuff.

Only one?

The emperor frowned slightly.

How to test a pill?

Your Majesty, there is only one pill at the moment. The refining of this kind of elixir is cumbersome and the raw materials are even harder to find. I have studied with my master for more than ten years and I have only scratched the surface. If your Majesty doesn't believe it, don't use it. I'm just following my master's orders. , present the elixir to the emperor.

Qiao Shi remained humble and silent, and the emperor's eyes showed a bit of impatience.

A pill cannot be allowed to be tested by himself.

Yangcen, what can you do?

The emperor turned around and asked about Yang Cen.

Yang Cen looked at the round elixir in Qiao Shi's hand and was not sure whether it was true or not. However, just by looking at the appearance of the elixir, he knew that this elixir was of the highest quality.

only……

Yang Cen kept paying attention to the movements of the second prince with his peripheral vision. When he saw the corners of the second prince's mouth curling up, he knew that the second prince also wanted him to try this pill.

Seeing this, Yang Cen stepped forward and said respectfully.

Reporting to the emperor, may I allow you to scrape some powder to test the medicine?

Will it affect the medicinal properties of this elixir?

The emperor is still very excited about the effect that Qiao Shi said just now. If it will affect the efficacy of the medicine...

Perhaps because he was afraid that Qiao Shi would say anything to refute, Yang Cen spoke immediately.

Reporting to the emperor, generally speaking, this method will not affect the effect of the elixir. I just don't know about the elixir of Immortal Penglai...

Yang Cen looked a little hesitant. If Qiao Shi said he couldn't do it, the suspicion in the emperor's heart would immediately rise to its peak.

Qiao Shi sneered in his heart, but still spoke without humility.

Penglai is just an island in the sea. It does not have the magical skills that outsiders say, and there are no immortals on it. The elixir was refined by the master with all his efforts. The emperor can give it a try, even if it is broken into two It will only weaken the efficacy of the medicine.

After hearing Qiao Shi's assurance, the emperor did not hesitate and hurriedly asked Yang Cen to test the medicine.

Yang Cen asked the medicine boy next to him to fetch a small mouse.

Then use scissors to cut off one of the mouse's legs.

Then Yang Cen scraped off some powder and fed it to the mouse.

The mouse, which was still bleeding, slowly recovered from its wounds visible to the naked eye.

In the end, the wound where the leg was broken had scabbed and recovered, but the leg had not grown back.

Seeing this result, Yang Cen was shocked, but with a look of regret on his face, he turned to report to the emperor.

Reporting to the Emperor, the effect of Miss Qiao's elixir is indeed good, but it has not reached the point of recovering all the injuries that Miss Qiao said. This little mouse's leg has not recovered.
