Immortality starts from eating melons in the cold palace

Chapter 60 Contemporary Li Er, the prince’s crisis
  After taking care of the Zoroastrian Cult, Li Changsheng couldn't wait to return to Beijing.

Li Erlang has been impatient for a long time since he doesn't know the taste of meat.

I wish I could taste two different kinds of meat in one night.

On the first night back in Beijing, Xia Wan'er pouted all night.

When I had lunch the next day, I was still awake.

In addition, good news also came from Ye Chen.

Rejuvenation Pill is here!

When he realized that it was profitable, Ye Chen tried every means to get the Rejuvenation Pill.

Interest is the magic weapon that drives people's hearts.

Marx once said that when the profit reaches 300%, he will not be afraid even of going to the gallows.

The benefits of the Rejuvenation Pill are more than 300%!
  Li Changsheng made Ye Chen make a lot of money, and it seemed that he had made a huge loss.

Actually it is not.

Li Changsheng had more Xuanyin Chalcedony than he could use up.

It's better to lure him with benefits and let Ye Chen do things for him.

Through Ye Chen's white glove, he can continuously obtain resources from Jiulian Mountain.

"what is this?"

Xia Wan'er looked at the jade bottle given to him by Li Changsheng and had a vague suspicion in her heart.

Could it be that one?

impossible!
  How?
  "Open it and take a look, you'll know!"

Li Changsheng did not answer, but smiled mysteriously.

Xia Wan'er opened the jade bottle and saw ten pills the size of longan eyes lying quietly in the jade bottle.

The fresh fragrance of vegetation fills the air.

It is indeed the Golden Elixir of Immortality!
  Although I had already made some guesses in my mind, when I actually saw it with my own eyes, I was still so shocked that I could hardly control my voice.

How did you get ten golden elixirs of immortality?
  Even Emperor Jingming was never so generous as to reward ten golden elixirs of immortality in one go.

The curiosity in his bright eyes almost overflowed.

Looking at Li Changsheng's profile, his heart couldn't help but flutter.

It's like a stone dropped into a calm lake, causing ripples.

"Where did you come from?"

"Hey, the mountain man has a clever plan!"

"You can have as much immortality elixir as you want."

"Even if you eat it as a jelly bean, it's okay!"

Li Changsheng's seemingly "arrogant" words attracted the beauty's eyes.

"How can something as precious as the Golden Elixir of Immortality be eaten as a jelly bean?"

After the beauty finished speaking, she stood on tiptoes and pecked Li Changsheng on the face.

"Is this the reward?"

Li Changsheng's tone was somewhat dissatisfied.

"What other reward do you want?"

The beauty gave a sweet cooing and then saw Li Changsheng's eyes falling on the center of her plump peach.

"That...can't be done!"

"It's really not possible!"

The beauty's unyielding look not only lacked any intimidation, but also made Li Changsheng's gaze become even more fiery.

"Don't be afraid, it doesn't hurt!"

"Li Changsheng, you bastard, do you really like to use the back door so much?"

"Woo..."

The next day, Xia Youyou discovered that her sister's walking posture was not quite right today, as if she was injured.

……

A few days after Li Changsheng returned to the capital, the prince led his troops back to the capital.

The people of the capital spontaneously welcomed the crown prince's triumphant return.

Jin Palace.

Tao Zhenren had a hand-to-hand talk with King Jin.

"I heard that after the prince pacified Shaanxi, he allocated fertile land to the refugees, which was quite popular among the people."

Tao Zhenren held the white piece and sat in the position of Tianyuan, talking casually.

"hehe!"

"That good old brother who is alone is really stupid."

"What's the use of the people's heart? Is it as good as the Sacred Heart?"

"How can you give the best farmland to the poor? What a sin!"

King Jin shook his head, coveting the fertile fields inspected by the army.

The amount of fertile land that the imperial army seized in Shaanxi this time made the King of Jin jealous.

I thought I would let the prince get a free advantage this time.

Unexpectedly, the prince foolishly gave the farmland to the refugees.

King Jin shook his head.

Tao Zhenren stroked his beard and said in a deep voice.

"What Your Highness said is true. The prince has won the hearts of the people, but has lost the sacred heart."

"The more popular hearts the prince gains, the more sacred hearts he loses."

"Congratulations, Your Highness, Your Majesty has issued a decree to allow Your Highness to join the Ministry of War on errands."

Before the army had even returned in triumph, the imperial edict from the King of Jin to go to the Ministry of War to handle errands had already been issued from the palace.

Emperor Jingming's purpose, as anyone with a discerning eye knows, is to divide the prince's military power.

"Thanks to Master Tao for your advice!" King Jin sighed with emotion. Master Tao's mastery of skills is so wonderful!
  The prince seemed to have a good life, but in fact he had lost all his sacred heart.

If the prince did not have a solid foundation in the army, the imperial edict issued by Emperor Jingming would not have allowed him to join the Ministry of War and serve on errands, but would have invalidated the prince's imperial edict.

……

Five years later.

Cold Palace
  Time flies so fast, Li Changsheng has reached the age of not being confused.

However, Li Changsheng's appearance looked no different from that of a twenty-year-old young man.

In fact it is.

Li Changsheng, who has a longevity of four years, has a lifespan two or three times that of ordinary people.

Proportionally speaking, Li Changsheng in his forties is really equivalent to an ordinary person in their teens and twenties.

So much so that when Li Changsheng went on duty in the Cold Palace, he had to put on makeup to look older.

[Host: Li Changsheng]

【Lifespan: 40/240】

[Realm: Second level of Qi training]

[Witness point: 20145/100000]

……

As early as a year ago, Li Changsheng had reached the peak of the second level of Qi training.

But the bottleneck of the third level of Qi training has been bothering Li Changsheng.

This made Li Changsheng quite depressed.

At the same time, it also confirmed to Li Changsheng that his talent in cultivating immortals was very ordinary.

With his talent, it may take another year and a half to advance to the third level of Qi training.

In Jiulian Mountain, there is naturally no shortage of panaceas to help break through bottlenecks.

For example, the first-turn barrier-breaking pill.

It can assist monks below the fourth level of Qi training to break through bottlenecks.

Each monk can only take it once in his life.

Most monks will use the opportunity to take the first-turn obstacle-breaking pill when they are advancing from the third level of Qi training to the fourth level of Qi training.

After all, the fourth level of Qi training is the middle stage of Qi training, and it is not even a bit stronger than the third level of Qi training.

In addition to the progress in cultivation and the accumulation of witness points, there are also considerable gains.

After conquering Zoroastrianism and transforming it into an intelligence agency.

Li Changsheng accumulated witness points twice as fast.

From the original 1,000 testimonial points per year, it has doubled to 2,000 points.

At this rate of accumulation, Jianmu Taoism will undergo its second transformation before his eightieth birthday.

Moreover, this does not include the Jiulianshan harvest.

The world level of Jiulian Mountain is higher, more major events happen, and there are more witness points than Da Zhou.

It’s just that Li Changsheng has no plans to go to Jiulian Mountain yet.

Jiulianshan is too dangerous.

Li Changsheng had no intention of entering Jiulian Mountain before he had the strength to protect himself.

Tuk-tuk-tuk——

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in!"

"Master, this is the latest information."

Su Jin walked in holding a roll of information.

Li Changsheng opened the information collected by the Zoroastrian Cult and read it.

[You have witnessed Tang Xuan's promotion to the Minister of Rites, and you have absorbed the power of the years, and your witness points +10! 】

Seeing this piece of information, Li Changsheng frowned and asked Su Jin.

"Tang Xuan was the deputy commander-in-chief of the fifth military camp before. If I remember correctly, he must be from the prince."

Su Jin nodded and spoke softly.

"Over the years, Emperor Jingming has used overt promotions and covert demotions to purge the prince's influence in the military."

"Tang Xuan is also among the targets of the purge."

Since the prince put down the civil unrest in Shaanxi, Emperor Jingming began to clean up the prince's influence in the army.

In addition to letting the King of Jin join the military department and fight with the prince in the ring.

He also removed the prince's confidants from key positions through promotion.

This time Tang Xuan was promoted to Minister of Rites using the same method.

Tang Xuan's rank was promoted from deputy commander-in-chief of the second rank to minister of the second rank.

It seems like he has been promoted a level, but in reality he has been demoted.

Tang Xuan was a military general, what etiquette did he know?
  If you become the Minister of Rites, you will also be ignored by the civil servants below.

It can be said that Emperor Jingming deposed one of the prince's generals without spending a single soldier.

Similar methods have been used frequently in the past five years.

"Emperor Jingming is such a foolish king, he really has no shame."

"When the world is in chaos, let the prince lead the troops to quell the chaos."

"When the world is at peace, I wish the prince was like toilet paper and could just throw it away."

Su Jin sneered, with deep contempt flashing in his eyes.

The disdain and ridicule towards Emperor Jingming were beyond words.

Li Changsheng took a sip of fragrant tea and said calmly.

"The last prince who was very good at military affairs was Li Er."

"Whoever becomes the emperor would probably be uneasy."
