Chapter 203 Iron and Steel Zhao Lian
When Zhao Lian saw the little eunuch, he was slightly stunned. Xu De wanted to go to him?
There is not much knowledge about Xu De, but Zhao Lian’s information is very well-versed. He knows that Xu De is the factory owner of the inner factory. Compared with the Dongchang, this inner factory is even better than that, and Xu De is also a big eunuch.
Such a person cannot afford to offend him, so it is most appropriate to stay away from him.
Unexpectedly, he actually came to him. After thinking about it, Zhao Lian felt that he still had to meet him. Although he didn't know why, he would not offend others. After all, he was seeking to be transferred to the capital.
These eunuchs are not good at doing things, but they are definitely first-class experts in bad things.
When the little eunuch saw Zhao Lian agreeing, he immediately smiled on his face: "Please, Mr. Zhao!"
After taking a look at Xiao Taitai, Zhao Lian didn't say anything. In fact, although he decided to meet him, he still felt very uncomfortable. He asked himself to meet an eunuch, which was an insult and despise himself.
I will endure humiliation for a while and will sooner or later find it back.
After coming to the imperial envoy headquarters, Zhao Lian saw Cui Fu, but at this time, Cui Fu and Zhao Lian had a very different impression.
In Zhao Lian's impression, Cui Fu was meticulous, with a sense of arrogance and shrewdness. At this time, Cui Fu seemed to have his backbone removed, and he was dejected and had no energy at all.
When Xu De saw Zhao Lian walking in, he smiled on his face: "Mr. Zhao is here? Please sit down!"
Although Xu De did not get up to greet him, and his attitude was extremely arrogant, Zhao Lian turned a blind eye. At this time, his heart could be described as a turbulent wave. Cui Fu didn't dare to look at him, because something happened.
Zhao Lian is not familiar with Xu De, but he is very familiar with Cui Fu.
On the one hand, everyone is in Nanjing, and on the other hand, Zhao Lian has been seeking to go to Beijing, and Cui Fu is a hurdle that cannot be avoided. As the eunuch in Nanjing, Cui Fu often praises himself in the memorials, which can be of great use at critical moments.
In this way, Zhao Lian naturally had to be as close to Cui Fu as possible, and he gave away a lot of money on weekdays.
Bribery of eunuchs and collusion with eunuchs is a big or small crime. I really have to pursue it. I am afraid that even if I go to Beijing, I am afraid that my current official position will not be preserved. Zhao Lian was already panicked, and he had no intention of paying attention to whether Xu De was getting up to greet him or whether he was arrogant.
"I wonder what happened to Eunuch Xu called me to come?" While reminding himself not to be nervous, Zhao Lian was testing Xu De's intentions.
"It's nothing big." Xu De said with a light smile: "Cui Fu was involved in a case, and some places involved Lord Zhao. Our family is thinking about asking Lord Zhao to come over and explain the matter clearly."
As he said that, Xu De took out a small box and gently opened the lid.
What was placed in the box was a black thing, and it didn't look very good on the outside, but when Zhao Lian saw this thing, he frowned. Isn't this a blessing or longevity cream? Is it because of this? Zhao Lian's heart suddenly became irritated.
"This thing is called Fushou Paste, Cui Fu presented it to the emperor."
Xu De put the box on the table and said lightly: "After the inspection by the Imperial Hospital, this is a poison produced in the Western Regions, a juice called poppy. This poppy also has a name called hell flower."
"After sucking this juice, you will feel like you are floating in the air at first."
"But poison is poison. This feeling of being ecstatic is just an appearance. In fact, this is a chronic poison. People who smoke for a long time will not be able to concentrate and develop dreams. Their body will deteriorate and eventually they cannot walk until they cough up blood and die."
Xu De said casually, but Zhao Lian was sweating profusely when he heard it.
This blessing and longevity cream is actually a poison? And it was presented to the emperor by Cui Fu?
Zhao Lian felt bad all over. He was also a user of Fushou Paste, but it was actually a poison. When he heard Xu De say that his health was getting worse and worse, he would die in the end. Zhao Lian was extremely frightened. Wouldn't he die?
"Of course, this is not the main harm." Xu De continued to say without looking at Zhao Lian.
Zhao Lian raised his head suddenly and looked at Xu De in disbelief. Isn’t this the main harm?
"If it's just a chronic poison, maybe it's nothing. There are too many chronic poisons in this world. But this bliss cream will make people addicted. If you take it, you will be crazy if you don't take it suddenly."
"You will feel very uncomfortable. If you don't suck, you will feel like you are going to die, as if you are going to hell, you will not be able to survive or die."
"At that time, whoever can give him some blessing and longevity cream will be allowed to the man and ask for it." At this point, Xu De suddenly laughed: "Cui Fu, a brave man, dares to present the blessing and longevity cream to the emperor. It is really a great sin!"
Zhao Lian was so angry that he was confused. This blessing and longevity cream was such a vicious poison?
"Our family is ordered by the emperor to investigate this case. Cui Fu has confessed that this blessing and longevity cream was given to him by Lord Zhao and made him offer it to the emperor." Xu De turned to look at Zhao Lian and said lightly: "Master Zhao, explain it!"
At this time, Zhao Lian suddenly woke up. What is it? What he gave to Cui Fu? Or did he ask him to offer it to the emperor?
Cui Fu, you bastard!
Zhao Lian cursed in his heart, Cui Fu hated himself for not dying! Not only did he hated himself for not dying, but he hated his whole family for not dying! He presented poison to the emperor with the intention of murdering the emperor, who can bear the charge!
"My father-in-law knows that this matter has nothing to do with Zhao!"
Zhao Lian quickly defended himself: "Zhao has given Cui Fu Fu Fu Shou Paste, and he has never asked him to present this thing to the emperor. He is slandering people with blood. Daddy, don't let Cui Fu succeed!"
Xu De smiled and said, "That's not what Cui Fu said. According to Cui Fu's confession, Lord Zhao gave him Fushou ointment." After saying this, Xu De stared at Zhao Lian tightly and waited for him to speak.
Zhao Lian felt bad. Although he didn't know what was going on here, he would never admit it!
"Eunuch Xu, Zhao has also been fooled by villains. Zhao has also sucked Fushou Paste. As for giving Cui Fushou Paste, it is not a matter of wealth among friends. Zhao has sucked some for Cui Fu at the banquet, but he has never given him Fushou Paste!"
Xu De nodded: "Where did you get your Fushou Paste by Lord Zhao?"
This is the key question Xu De wanted to ask. He didn't think that Zhao Lian and Cui Fu had any meaning of wealth. He didn't think that Zhao Lian took out Fushou Paste to simply flatter Cui Fu. There was definitely something wrong with it.
"This!" At this point, Zhao Lian hesitated suddenly.
In fact, Xu De's question made Zhao Lian suddenly alert. What Xu De said is true? Is this Fushou Paste really poisonous? If Xu Fu wanted to define this Fushou Paste as a poison, then this is framed!
Thinking of this, Zhao Lian felt that he could not speak anymore: "Eunuch Xu, this Zhao was just bought from the market,"
Xu De glanced at Zhao Lian and nodded faintly: "Since Lord Zhao doesn't want to say it, it doesn't matter. We have to worry about Lord Zhao staying here for a few hours. If you have any needs, you can tell the people at the door."
After saying this, Xu De took the people out, and no matter how Zhao Lian angrily scolded him, he had never spoken.
Zhao Lian wanted to go out, but the guards at the door stopped him directly.
After struggling for several times without success, Zhao Lian simply retreated. He kept thinking in his heart. The whole thing was strange. After thinking for a long time, Zhao Lian also figured it out. Could this Xu De be dealt with the He family?
Did the He family offend Xu De?
The more Zhao Lian thought about it, the more likely it was. It must be that the He family offended Xu De, or Xu De coveted the He family's property. This was to make He Nian a death sentence! Xu De was punished for conspiracy to rebel.
The more I thought about it, the more I was doing this, and as time went by, Zhao Lian became more sure of his guess. As for another guess, Zhao Lian dared not think about it.
When it was time to finish the meal, Zhao Lian found that he seemed not too hungry, but he always cried. There seemed to be something roaring in his body. He knew that he wanted to take Fushou Paste.
This feeling became stronger and stronger, Zhao Lian became more and more anxious, and his ominous premonition became stronger and stronger.
As time went by, Zhao Lian began to tremble, shivered, his whole body curled, and his legs and feet began to cramp. This pain poured into Zhao Lian's body like a tide. Zhao Lian held his shoulders, his eyes were extremely cold.
At this time, Zhao Lian finally understood that what Xu De said was not a lie, it was true, it was poison.
It was indeed a hell flower, which made people not want to survive but die. Zhao Lian's expression became more and more ferocious, but he gritted his teeth tightly, allowing the things in his body to bite him, but his heart became clearer and clearer.
"I am Zhao Lian. I have studied hard for ten years. I want to become an existence below one person and above ten thousand people. I am destined to be a name in history."
"I can't fall here, absolutely not, I can't die!"
Outside the window, Xu De looked at this scene and his expression became serious.
Beside Xu De, Wang Yongji also saw this scene. His face was gloomy and terrifying. In fact, after Zhao Lian entered the imperial envoy headquarters, he knew that he came here just to see what Xu De was doing.
Wang Yongji never expected that he would see such a scene. After listening to Xu De's explanation, Wang Yongji now wants to kill people with a knife.
"Eunuch Xu, can this Fushou Paste be cured?" Wang Yongji asked in a low voice as he looked at Zhao Lian lying on the ground.
Xu De glanced at Wang Yongji, then turned to look at Zhao Lian lying on the ground, and said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, our family dare not say that, so Lord Zhao must be able to quit."
