Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Chapter 346 I know more about you, do you want to listen?

Master Zi Chen looked surprised, looked at Murong Jiu, and asked:
"I wonder what that Taoist boy looks like and what his characteristics are. Princess, can you describe it in detail?"

Murong Jiu added some details to the image of the Taoist boy he had previously described to the emperor, and told it to Master Zi Chen.

As long as Master Zichen is afraid of being exposed, he will not dare to really recognize such a person.

Sure enough, he stroked his deliberately long black beard, shook his head and said, "I have never heard of this. He may be from the same sect as my master. I wonder if his master can attain enlightenment and ascend?"

"His master attained enlightenment and became an immortal as early as 60 years ago."

Master Zi Chen pretended to calculate in his hands, and then said: "His master and my master ascended at a similar time. Maybe they are brothers."

Murong Jiu said in surprise: "That is such a fate. In order to repay his kindness, the Taoist boy passed on the mantle to me, so Master Zichen and I can be regarded as brothers and sisters in the same sect."

Master Zi Chen looked at Murong Jiu with the detached look of an outsider, "Having said that, I see that you don't have such spiritual roots. Even if you want to learn alchemy, it will be useless."

Even the spiritual roots are out, so he can lie.

The fourth prince chose this person because he was probably attracted by his deceptive nature.

Murong Jiu smiled and said: "What you said is wrong. My senior brother Daotong saw that I have deep blessings and strong spiritual roots, so he passed on his master's mantle to me. On the way back to Beijing, I have already refined it An elixir came out. After my master took it, his cloudy eyes were healed, his hands stopped shaking, and he looked more than ten years younger. Senior Brother Daotong said that I am a rare elixir-making genius that can only be seen in a century."

Who can't talk nonsense?

When the emperor heard this, his eyes lit up and he asked Murong Jiu: "Is this true? Your master is more than ten years younger now?"

"Father, how dare I make false claims in front of you? When I refine elixir, I add extremely precious tonics to the original foundation. That's why the refined elixir can exert such great power. effect."

The emperor quickly stretched out his hand, now willing to let Murong Jiu feel his pulse, and asked her how her health was after taking the elixir.

Master Zi Chen frowned quietly and stared at Murong Jiu closely.

Murong Jiu took his pulse and said, "Father, your health has indeed improved, but the effect is not great. I heard that the medicine you used was the little prince's blood?"

"What? Isn't it good to use blood?"

What's the use of blood?She complained in her heart, but she did not deny it with her mouth, so as not to make the emperor unhappy.

She only said: "It should be more effective to use blood as a guide. Although it is effective, you still feel that something is missing. Maybe Senior Brother Zi Chen is not used to it when he first came to the palace."

As she said that, she pointed to the alchemy materials placed aside and said: "By the way, Senior Brother Zichen, why are you still using sulfur and mercury to make alchemy? You don't know that a few years ago there was a Taoist temple that killed several people. When the corpse was cut open, it was found that its gastrointestinal tract had been corroded and melted, exuding a strong odor. This was due to the incorrect elixir-making materials. The elixir you want to refine is for my father, so don't be careless! "

When the emperor heard this, he immediately asked: "Is this really true?"

Jun Yuyan said: "Reporting to my father, this happened. It happened three years ago at the Sanzhen Taoist Temple outside Yuhai City. There was a big fuss. You can still find out the tragic situation at that time."

He told the time and place clearly, and of course the emperor believed that his eldest son would not lie like this because it could be found out with a single investigation.

Of course, he will also send people to investigate.

Murong Jiu recalled that the Taoist temple master at that time fled out of fear of crime, and immediately said:
"Yes, the family members of the deceased destroyed the Sanzhen Taoist Temple at that time, but the temple owner escaped early. Speaking of which, the temple owner looked similar to Senior Brother Zi Chen. He also had a beautiful beard and looked young and handsome. Who would have thought that Immortal Bone is actually a bad guy who seeks wealth and murder." Master Zi Chen sweated on his forehead and his eyes averted.

Murong Jiuxin said: It can't be such a coincidence, right?

Is it possible that the master of Sanzhen Taoist Temple is really Master Zichen?

Master Zi Chen said quickly: "This kind of person is simply ruining the reputation of Taoism. It is extremely abominable!"

Murong Jiu's words seemed to be unintentional on the part of the speaker, but intentional on the part of the listener. The emperor still had doubts in his heart.

He said: "Xiao Jiu, you studied under the miraculous doctor, and you are right. The elixir also needs to be updated. If you assist Master Zi Chen in refining the elixir that is most suitable for me, I will definitely reward you greatly!"

The older the emperor got, the more he cherished his life.

Although he does want to live forever, it must be based on good health, so as not to cause any problems. If there is no medicine or stone to cure it, then the sky will not work and the earth will not work.

Murong Jiu is good at medical skills, and with her help, safety can be ensured.

Of course, even after hearing that someone died after taking the elixir, the emperor did not change his mind. He insisted that someone must be able to achieve enlightenment and become an immortal. Throughout the ages, there have been many myths and stories.

Ordinary people do not have the chance to become immortals. Only an emperor like him, the emperor among men, can live forever and achieve enlightenment and ascend to heaven.

Murong Jiu understood the emperor's thoughts, because after checking his pulse, he found that his physical condition was actually very bad. He looked good now, but it was just because he took too many tonics.

It is definitely not the effect of the elixir. Maybe some tonics were unknowingly added to the meals the emperor ate, thus creating the illusion that taking the elixir was effective.

Murong Jiu happily agreed.

This is also one of the purposes for her and the prince to enter the palace this time.

After the emperor left, Master Zi Chen's face immediately darkened.

"Princess Ling, it is unlucky for you, a woman, to participate in a man's alchemy. I advise you to take the initiative to tell the emperor that you cannot bear this hardship!"

Jun Yuyan's face was indifferent, but he knew that Ah Jiu had something to say, so he didn't speak.

Murong Jiu's face was full of surprise, "Master Zichen, I don't know, I thought you were an old antique. If this princess is unlucky, how about you?"

As she spoke, she got closer and said in a voice that only the three of them could hear: "Taoist books also say that people who make alchemy must be young men. Master Zichen, you have hurt so many boudoir ladies. Not only are your bodies unclean, but your souls are also unclean." It's also dirty. You dare to give the elixir you made to the emperor, how brave you are!"

Master Zi Chen's face turned pale in an instant. He looked at Murong Jiu in surprise, wondering why Princess Ling in front of him knew about what happened many years ago!

He has changed a lot from his previous appearance. He no longer looks like a scholar. Even if the young lady from back then stood in front of him, she might not be able to recognize him.

how come?how come?
"Do you want me to continue? I know more about you, Chen Xiucai."
