General, Your Wife Wants You to Get Out - C126

If he thought about it carefully, wasn’t all that nonsense just some perverted warlock tricks? Using things that outsiders couldn’t figure out, as well as things that doctors couldn’t figure out, to fool the emperor who was wholeheartedly pursuing the cultivation of the Dao.

Countless emperors in the past have been killed by the so-called immortal pills. Eating that thing would make people excited and there would be a few ladies in the night, but their bodies would also become more and more empty.

Su Zhi thought it was laughable. In ancient times, emperors who held high positions all wanted to live forever.

However, they did not think that Fang Shi was really capable of concocting pills. First of all, he would have to show off before he could be convincing again.

Even the emperor is extremely foolish, to actually listen to such nonsense.

Liu Yuan picked up the book on the floor and flipped open a page. He recited, “Bait Fang Shi Jindan. Your temper is anxious and your emotions are unusual.” Flipping over to the last page, he said, “Since autumn and winter, I have felt ill, and the Taoist thinks that I have changed my bones.”

That’s right, the so called Jindan was indeed like that. The first time one took it, they would be excited, and over time, their temper would become violent. Then, their body would slowly become empty.

“Lady Su, these are all the records of the eunuchs who lived by His Majesty’s side. I came here to take them out by chance.”

Su Zhi understood and explained, “There is a ten percent chance that the so-called elixir of life and death in this world is fake. There is simply no such thing as an immortal elixir that can be reached by consuming the elixir of life and death. Mercury was a liquid metal. In other words, it was something that was slightly similar to gold, silver, copper, or iron. If you were to take it recklessly, it would be like taking a chronic poison. Over time, the poison would invade your bone marrow and even the immortals of the Great Luo would not be able to save you. ”

Hearing this, Liu Shiqian coughed. He seemed to be very angry.

“Father, your health is more important.” Liu Yuan patted him on the back with a worried expression.

The old man waved his hand and said, “I have secretly looked for a few doctors who have seen this prescription, but they were unable to detect anything. Yuquan, taste Gangping, the main treatment of five viscera diseases. Soft tendons strong bone, soul, long muscle, nourishing qi, long suffering from the cold and heat, no hunger, no thirst, immortal. Empty cyan, the chief cure for youth blindness and deafness. Bright eyes, sharp nine orifices, blood circulation, nurturing the spirit. “Long live and long live …”

Liu Shiqian suppressed his anger and said in a low voice, “I was naive enough to think that these things could extend a person’s life. It wasn’t until later that I realized that something was wrong with His Majesty and that this recipe wasn’t as simple as it looked.”

Su Zhi nodded with certainty. “Teacher’s intuition is right. This recipe is full of harm and benefits. It empties the body.”

Liu Shiqian’s heart ached as he stared at the page with anxiety.

Even if they knew it was harmful, they might not be able to convince the emperor to stop consuming the medicine. Most importantly, the Warlock was recommended by the Zhao Family, and everyone was aware of his intentions.

If the Zhao Family wanted to do this, they were afraid that the Emperor would not abdicate his throne for a long time and that the Crown Prince would not be able to hold out against them, their father! Such vicious thoughts! He actually dared to take the risk and commit murder on behalf of the Son of Heaven!

“Cough, cough, cough!” Liu Shiqian violently coughed again, making him unable to breathe.

Liu Yuan helped him calm his breathing before saying, “Thank you, Lady Su, for answering the riddle. My aunt will let you take me to see her.”

Su Zhi understood tacitly and curtsied, “Thank you for your trouble. Please take care of yourself, old mister.”

She pushed open the door and was immediately welcomed by a servant.

After the woman disappeared, the old man stopped coughing and stared at the tightly shut door.

“Yu-er, when did you know this woman?”

Liu Yuan didn’t understand why he suddenly asked this question. In the end, he replied, “I met him when I was on my way to the disaster relief in Qing He County.”

Liu Shiqian narrowed his eyes and thought.

A peasant woman who came from the countryside actually knew about this and had the ability to make business so popular. This girl was definitely not an ordinary person.

“At your age, you’ve also been standing here this year. Ever since that child died, you’ve been like a monk with few desires. If you take some time, you’ll have to think about the future.”

Liu Yu An looked a little helpless. “Why did father bring it up?”

“You are my son after all, and there are no parents in this world who do not wish their children to live a good life. It doesn’t matter if you’re young now, but when those two little monkeys are old and you don’t have anyone by your side, you’ll know that your days aren’t going well. ”

Although he could not see Su Zhi’s background clearly, Liu Shiqian thought that if that girl could enter the Liu Family, she might become an invisible force to help them.

He had lived for dozens of years and had never made a mistake.

“Go and investigate the origin of that woman.”

“Father, are you trying to …”

Stupid!

Liu Shiqian rolled his eyes at his son in disgust, didn’t he understand his intentions? If this girl had a clean background, with her ability, it would be better for her to get into the Liu Family as soon as possible.

Su Zhi left the Warm Pavilion and was brought to the Fragrant Orchid House by a servant.

She saw someone waiting outside the courtyard from a distance, and when she got closer, she knew it was Auntie Liu.

“Good New Year, Auntie.”

Auntie Liu smiled as she welcomed him, “Happy New Year.” “In the past, I always spent time in Spring Leaf Alley. This year, when I checked into the Liu Estate, I didn’t find it too lively.”

“Everyone is thinking highly of you. If you are free, you can go back and stay for a few days.”

Su Zhi was helped into the room by Madam Liu. She said with some grievances, “As an old man with a dead husband and no children, it’s not good for me to go to someone else’s home. My nephew is kind to me, and fears that I will be lonely, and comes to see me now and then. ”

Old Madam Liu was the only one who was slightly unhappy with her sister-in-law; everything else was fine as well.

Su Zhi soothed Auntie Liu by talking about Liu Yuan being filial and kind. She could relax and live a good life.

“Seeing that the year is almost up, I recall how kind you were when I came to Xuancheng to live without a place to stay. Today, I have brought enough money to pay you back with the interest. ” She gave the banknotes to Aunty Liu, but did not forget to thank her for her help.

“Xiaosu is indeed capable. How long has it been since we last met? Many men can’t even catch up to you.”

Auntie Liu also took out the housing deed that she had taken care of and handed it to Su Zhi, “Although that courtyard isn’t the best, auntie has spent a lot of effort on every single blade of grass and tree in there. In the future, if you find anything you dislike and want to fix it, pay attention.”

“I understand. Aunt Liu, don’t think too much. That courtyard is still good. There is no need to fix it.”

The two of them were holding hands and talking when the surprised cry of a maid came from outside.

“Yo, what happened here?”

The maidservant went to take a look outside, her expression flustered as she ran in, “Aunt Liu, it seems to be eldest brother and second brother.”

Mentioning her two grandnieces, Auntie Liu let go of Su’s hands and ran out of the room in a hurry.

Su Zhi followed him out the door.

It turned out to be two playful little babies taking advantage of the wet nurse’s inattention to get into the fence and go to the pond.

Ever since the two young masters had run away from the mansion, the servants had spontaneously surrounded the dangerous areas with fences, afraid that one of them would accidentally bump into two children.

The worry that the servants were worried about still happened. Today, the two children brought out a small bundle of burning branches from who knows where. They held it in their hands and lit up many flowers and plants in the garden.

Now the two miscreants were crawling on the loquat tree by the pond, lighting the sparrows’ nests on the top of the tree with their beams of fire.

There were two white bunches hanging from a small tree that was not thick enough to begin with, and the branches were almost bent.

Below him was a pond. If he were to fall into it in winter, even adults wouldn’t be able to withstand it, much less a child as large as him.

“Aiyo, my two ancestors, quickly come down.” The nurse cried and ordered a few servants to go and fetch the child.

Outsiders watched with trepidation, but the two small ones found it extremely interesting. The higher they climbed, the lower the branches dropped.

The servant stood not far from the shore and reached out to grab the child on the tree.

Su Zhi was also worried. A child who had never suffered a loss would not know how dangerous the situation was, but would not know the consequences of falling down while laughing happily.

Auntie Liu was so anxious that she began to cry. She scolded, “How do you all treat children? If something happens to them, will you be able to compensate them?”

“Aunty Liu, don’t worry. Is there a boat at home?”

With a point from the girl, Auntie Liu immediately reacted, “Hurry, hurry. Go and row a few boats over there and catch them.”

The servant moved quickly and brought over a small boat to row towards the pond. The two children in the tree lost interest and fell down.
