Zhu Junyang looked back at the Patriarch of the Chen family who was standing in front of the door and watched them leave with a smile. He sneered and said, "No matter how detailed the plan is, there will be loopholes, but we haven't discovered it yet!"
Zhu Junyang is sure that there is definitely something wrong with the Patriarch of the Chen family. With his current mind-reading ability that can be sent and received freely, he can only perceive a blank space in the opponent's mind. This person is either gifted or specially trained. Normal people, when communicating with others, will not show a state of emptying their minds. The latter is more likely!
Finally, there was a breakthrough point. Hou Xiaoliang cheered up and asked, "Master, is there really something wrong with the Chen family?"
"This Patriarch of the Chen family is not easy!" Zhu Junyang got on his horse and walked further and further away from the officers and soldiers. He coldly ordered, "Ming Xin, Ming Ding, keep an eye on him!"
"Yes!" Two voices sounded from the crowd watching from the side of the street. Immediately, two ordinary people who could no longer be ordinary were lost in the crowd.
If the master can say "not easy", then the head of the Chen family is definitely not an ordinary person! The hostess and his little Wutong finally had a clue, and Hou Xiaoliang burst into tears. Little Wutong, wait, brother will come to rescue you soon!
But in the following days, Ming Ding and the others sent news that the Patriarch of the Chen family did not change anything. If it wasn't for the safety of his concubine, Zhu Junyang would have praised him for his determination!
Five days passed and still no news. Hou Xiaoliang scratched his head anxiously: "Master, since the Chen family has a problem, it's better to act first and arrest the head of the Chen family. With Director Su's methods, I don't believe he is dishonest!!"
"No! At present, no news is the best news! It means that they have plans for the princess! Otherwise, they have already set up a trap and contacted us to throw ourselves into the trap!" Zhu Junyang frowned slightly. The only thing that can make people think about his girl is her skill in refining medicine. Could it be that a few days ago, the news that he helped to prepare the medicinal materials of Yanshou Pill was revealed? That's good, at least that girl is safe now.
From the underground palace under the Chen family's treasury, a thick medicinal fragrance wafted out. Eunuch Yuan looked at all the precious medicinal materials being put into the medicine furnace, and gradually turned into a refreshing medicinal solution. A strange smile appeared on his fair face. It's weird because the smile seems to be painted on a mask, without a trace of emotion.
The deadline of seventy-seven forty-nine days is getting closer and closer, Xiaocao's master and servant's eyes are red, and the person has lost a lot of weight, and the whole person looks very haggard. For the purpose of prolonging his life for more than 20 years, Eunuch Yuan would certainly not treat them badly.
However, it is not so easy to refine high-quality pills, especially the prescription given by Xiaobutianshi. Usually, when refining elixir, Xiaocao naturally saves a lot of effort with Xiaobutianshi helping to watch the fire. After Xiaobutianshi left, Xiaocao realized how much she relied on it.
This time refining the longevity pill, Xiaocao has to do everything by herself, especially the control of the heat, even Wutong and Chunhua may not be able to reassure her. After staying up for more than 40 days day and night, I can sleep at most three to five hours a day, so it's no wonder I'm not haggard!
When a strange fragrance wafted out, Xiaocao extinguished the flame under the medicine furnace, walked over unsteadily, opened the medicine refining furnace, and took out three jade-white pills from it. The pill shone like a pearl, and the fragrance filled the entire underground palace, and the fatigue of the past few days seemed to be swept away when smelling the fragrance.
"This... this is the longevity pill? Have you really made it?!" Eunuch Yuan rushed over with great joy, grabbing the three pills in his hand, slowly tasting them as if he wanted to see a rare treasure …
Suddenly, he clutched his throat, his eyes were about to fall out, pointed at Xiaocao with a cannibalistic expression, and said with difficulty: "Bitch!! You actually poisoned the miscellaneous family!!"
Yu Xiaocao flicked the dust off her body with her sleeve, smiled lightly, and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I used some leftovers to refine some interesting pills during the refining period. medicine."
Fortunately, in order to keep secret, Eunuch Yuan abandoned all his subordinates when Xiaocao was refining medicine. In this alchemy room, besides him, only Xiaocao's master and servant can enter. The moment he snatched the pill just now, he touched Xiaocao's hand. The poison was released at that time.
Seeing Eunuch Yuan's ferocious expression, Yu Xiaocao walked over slowly, took out the three longevity pills from his hand, and said with a sneer, "Eunuch Yuan, an ambitious man like you who doesn't take human life seriously, doesn't I don’t deserve to live in this world. Let’s leave this longevity pill to those who need it!!”
"Bang—" Before she could finish her sentence, she flew out, her back hit the wall as hard as iron, her throat was sweet, and a mouthful of salty blood spurted out from her mouth.
"Miss!" "Wang Concubine!!" Wutong and Chunhua rushed towards the master who was lying on the ground like a broken doll, and supported her to lean on him with tears, stopped her and stood up straight, one step at a time. In front of Eunuch Yuan who was approaching step by step.
"You..." Yu Xiaocao spewed out another mouthful of blood, she resisted the pain in her internal organs and said, "Didn't you be hit by my 'Corse Gu Duanchang Powder'? Why..."
"The miscellaneous family has to thank you!" Eunuch Yuan tossed the jade bottle in his hand, and smiled sadly, "This super detoxification pill is really extraordinary. Such a domineering poison will be cured immediately. But... the princess Niangniang, you are not as lucky as Zajia. With such a serious internal injury, what should I do without the 'Nine Transformation Golden Pill'?"
"Miss, how are you? Are you alright?" Wu Tong cried uncontrollably. If Miss really suffered serious internal injuries as the dead eunuch said, without medical treatment, she doesn't know how long she can last. what to do? Why hasn't the prince come to rescue them until now? What the hell is this idiot Hou Xiaoliang doing
"Ah-choo—" Throwing the guy dressed as a servant in front of the prince, Hou Xiaoliang rubbed his nose and said, "Master, are you sure there is something wrong with this guy? It's been almost fifty days. Has Xiao Wutong been abused, can he eat enough, can he sleep well, can he... "
"Shut up!!" Zhu Junyang's heart suddenly felt as if someone had stabbed him with a sword. He covered his heart, his expression changed: They say that husband and wife are connected, could it be that something happened to Xiaocao
He stepped forward in two or three steps, picked up the guy who looked exactly like an ordinary servant, and looked into the servant's eyes tightly with his red eyes. The servant's originally clear eyes gradually became cloudy, and finally he couldn't hold on and passed out.
"Wow! Master, you know how to hypnotize?" Hou Xiaoliang whispered in surprise. Su Ran looked at this scene and frowned deeply.
"Let's go! Go to the warehouse in the west of the Chen family city!!" Not everyone, like the Patriarch of the Chen family, has undergone special spiritual trials. After extracting the useful information from the servant's mind, Zhu Junyang strode away, got on his horse and galloped away.
The next day, when the servant woke up in the cell in the yamen, he had already become a fool...
In the underground palace of the Chen family's treasury, Eunuch Yuan approached the three master and servant step by step with a grinning grin. Chunhua greeted him with a wave of his palm, but Eunuch Yuan deciphered the move lightly. After a few tricks, Chunhua was defeated, was swept by the palm wind, and flew upside down. After landing, he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
"Originally, your skill of refining medicine is useful to the Zajia. I want to save you a way out, stay with the Zajia, and witness the Zajia step by step to the Ninth Five-Year Supreme. When the time comes, I will give you the position of an imperial pharmacist. Enjoy the splendor and wealth." Eunuch Yuan walked slowly with every step, as if deliberately tormenting the hearts of the two masters and servants.
Eunuch Yuan has a perverted little hobby, that is, he likes to see the appearance of fear in others. When the emotion of fear spreads and piles up little by little, that feeling of being trapped, don't be too happy!
Suddenly, his face changed, his eyes were like poisonous snakes, and he stared at Yu Xiaocao coldly: "Who would have thought that you don't know what is good or bad, and dare to poison the miscellaneous family!! This reminds the miscellaneous family that you are not only a courtier of Daming, It's still the dog prince's woman!! Miscellaneous family and the surnamed Zhu, in the end, either he or I will die. You bitch and him are as deep as the sea, and keeping a person with a different heart by your side is tantamount to drinking poison to quench your thirst. Maybe, where The sky will be plotted against by your poison!!"
Facing Xiaocao's face, Eunuch Yuan showed a trace of sternness: "Looks like it's a big deal to keep you!! With these three longevity pills, it's enough for a miscellaneous family to succeed! You all, go die—"
"Stop!!" Yu Xiaocao covered her chest, coughed softly, swallowed the gushing blood, and said sharply, "If you take another step forward, I'll take all three life-extending pills. Swallow it, and you won't be able to catch any of it!!"
Eunuch Yuan roared ferociously: "How dare you!!"
"Why don't I dare? Anyway, you said it, you won't save my life. I can't live on my own, and I won't let you do what you want." She said, and put the hand holding the longevity pill to her mouth side.
"Wait!" Yuan Gong voted for the mouse, and stretched out his hand to stop Xiaocao's movement. He turned his gaze slightly, and forced a smile on his face, "Master Yu, let's have a discussion. I will let your master and servant leave, and you keep the longevity pill. How about it?"
"Do you think I'm stupid? A vicious, ambitious, and bottomless person like you, what kind of faith can you say? Once the Longevity Pill is in your hands, will there be a way for our master and servant to survive?" Yu Xiaocao felt the pain on her chest. The pain became more and more painful, and his sanity gradually became blurred. You can't pass out, if you lose consciousness at this time, there is no chance of waking up.
"What do you want?!" Eunuch Yuan gradually lost his patience.
"Let my girl go! After ensuring her safety, I will return the Life Extension Pill to you!" Yu Xiaocao felt that she had a bad day today, and that the two of them, master and servant, could survive one or the other.
"No! Miss!! I will not leave you! I will die with you!!" Wutong shook his head vigorously, tears splashed and dripped on Xiaocao's face.
