Xia Qingqing went in alone, and Li Xian and the female guard stared at each other. After waiting for about half an hour, Xia Qingqing came out with red eyes.
After seeing Li Xian, he pulled Li Xian's sleeve and walked out without saying a word.
Li Xian felt it was a bit strange, this was obviously not Xia Qingqing's character; after leaving the palace, Xia Qingqing uttered a fact that shocked Li Xian - the one who poisoned was someone in the palace, either the eldest prince, the second prince, or even the third prince. The third prince was young, but it could be someone around the third prince, such as Concubine Hua!
The emperor knew about this matter, the empress knew about it, Li Yulong and others knew about it. Faced with such a situation, the best way is to not investigate!
Seeing that the emperor was dying, and the Great Xia Kingdom was also in danger, the emperor finally chose to give up his status as emperor and become a tolerant father before his death.
So, the matter was covered up.
In the carriage, Xia Qingqing lay in Li Xian's arms, twitching and crying silently. This is the sorrow of being a royal family member. Almost every royal family member cannot escape this fate. Power, greed, and desire can corrupt people's hearts.
After returning home, Li Xian did not see Yang Zhong, but he did not care. He thought that Yang Zhong should be in seclusion or practicing magic.
Before Li Xian could catch his breath, someone delivered a letter. On the envelope it was clearly written: From my dear brother, Shangguan Yong.
"Kiss, the word 'Xiandi' is almost becoming an exclusive name for me!" Li Xian smiled helplessly and opened the letter. The letter was very simple, probably saying that it had been a long time since we last met and I missed him a little and missed the past. Hearing that Xiandi was coming, the brothers prepared a banquet in "Yunjian" and asked him to meet tomorrow night.
"Brothers? Miss the past? I don't miss it at all!" Li Xian chuckled, "Okay, I'll go check it out tomorrow night to see what you guys are up to."
After a peaceful night, Li Yulong gave Li Xian a task after breakfast the next day. He asked him to visit the current prime minister Kong Xiang and the current general Fu Minghui. In addition, he also asked him to visit the Wang family. Finally, don't forget Li Xian's two "good brothers" Zhang Quanjia, Zhang Yuan, the Minister of Revenue, Shangguan Yongjia, and General Shangguan Guang.
"Dad, are we still going to the Wang family? Is this a mistake?"
"Just go if you're told to go. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Remember to bring gifts with you. Just one spirit stone for each family."
"What? Spiritual Stones? We want to give the spiritual stones to these people? No!" Everything else can be discussed except the spiritual stones.
What is a spiritual stone? It is the key energy for cultivating immortals. Now many people have reached a critical point in their cultivation. They either rely on their own practice to break through the bottleneck little by little, or rely on spiritual medicine; but as the saying goes, "all medicines are three-point poisonous", spiritual medicine breakthroughs also have some side effects. The best way is to get a piece of spiritual stone and use the pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth to break through.
Therefore, the price of a spirit stone is about 500,000 taels of gold! This price is completely driven up by the masters of the Jindan stage and even the Yuanying stage. There is no other way, gold can only be buried with the dead, while spirit stones are needed by everyone; gold can be used repeatedly, while spirit stones can only be used once.
In fact, even if there were 500,000 taels of gold, the spirit stones would still be in short supply.
