"The selection of the imperial alchemist?" Not long after Xieyu said goodbye, Yue Jinghua returned to Jingxinyuan. Waiting for her was not only her mother Lierou, but also a palace maid from the palace.
That palace maid was the personal maid of Concubine Sha, and she came on behalf of Concubine Sha.
A few days ago, one of the royal alchemists in the palace resigned and returned to his hometown due to old age and frailty. His departure left a vacancy for the alchemist.
The loss of an alchemist was not a big deal in the first place, but in the early years, there were several other concubines in the palace who were pregnant, but in the last few months, they all had unprovoked miscarriages, and some even lost their lives.
The departing alchemist was originally from Danlu, and had some friendship with Concubine Sha's natal family, the Sha family, so he prepared a dose of Lingtai Pill for her.
The pregnancy-preserving pills could only be taken once every ten days, and the alchemist left in a hurry, but Sha Fei still wanted to find someone close to her who could make pills for her during her pregnancy.
The reason why Concubine Sha pays attention to Yue Jinghua is because of the bottle of Nvwu Dan that Lierou sent to the palace earlier.
After the Queen Mother took it, the effect was very good. When she came to the palace to visit Princess Xiu Rong that day, she suddenly let it slip.
Concubine Sha met Yue Jinghua again, and she had already left some impression on her, so she asked Salman to ask a few questions, hoping that Yue Jinghua would join the palace as the royal alchemist.
The palace maid arrived at the same time, and also brought the conditions offered by Sha Fei to Yue Jinghua. The royal alchemist could enjoy the palace's salary of one hundred third-level mysterious pills a year, and could enter and exit the palace freely.
The price of one hundred third-level Mysterious Pills was only a drop in the bucket. Yue Jinghua didn't particularly pay attention to it now, but the condition of being able to enter and leave the palace freely made her heart beat.
If Xieyu is right, then there must be a Tianyang Shuttle hidden in the palace. Although the usefulness of the Tianyang Shuttle is still unknown for now. The treasure that may help Fa Canglian establish the Shang Kingdom, if it falls into the hands of Fa Xiaoyi
Still in Fa Xiaoyun's hands, Yue Jinghua was not happy to see it.
"I would like to express my gratitude to Concubine Sha for her kindness. However, the matter of becoming an alchemist is not within my ability. Besides, my alchemy practice was just a whim and I have never actually participated in the assessment of an alchemist.
, I'm afraid, I'm not qualified enough to participate in the competition for the Royal Alchemist," Lierou frowned after hearing this, but for some unknown reason, she found an excuse for Yue Jinghua and started to shirk it.
"Concubine Sha has already thought of this." The palace maid also came prepared. She took out a jade gourd from her arms and put a tassel fringe around the neck of the gourd. "This
The white-tasseled jade gourd can only be obtained after passing the Danlu examination, which represents the qualifications of a junior alchemist. There is also a manual for the junior alchemist examination, which records in detail the properties and uses of various medicinal herbs, as well as the numbers.
Ten methods of refining elixirs. Empress Sha Fei said that with Miss Yue’s intelligence, this time’s test for the Royal Alchemist will not be too difficult. If Miss Yue passes this test, she will be able to do more than one in the future.
take care of"
Can a junior alchemist fake his identity? Yue Jinghua took the white jade gourd and took a rough look at it.
This appointed concubine is not a simple role. Her words also imply that Concubine Sha wants to cooperate with Yue Jinghua. If the current Jingxin Institute can get help from Concubine Sha, it will be of great benefit.
Darling, Yue Jinghua was secretly surprised, this gourd is not simple.
The silver tassel around the neck of the gourd is very beautifully woven. If you look closely, you can see that it is woven with white gold wire. There is a tassel hanging on it, with three small characters "Yue Jinghua" on it.
Very exquisite.
Looking at the material of the jade gourd, the jade body is warm and moist. It can be seen that it is carved from a whole piece of Lantian smoky jade. If the elixir is stored in it, it will be well preserved.
The Alchemy House is really lavish. Any junior alchemist can carry such a gourd treasure.
But she thought again, it was not so much that Danlu was lavish, but that Concubine Sha was secretive. Danlu had a strict organizational structure, and she had to install a fictional junior alchemist for her, and then get such a treasure gourd.
, it seems that Danlu is probably behind the Sha family.
But why did Danlu fall in love with me?
After weighing the pros and cons, Yue Jinghua quickly came up with an idea. Concubine Sha had saved her life. She was Salman's aunt, and she never owed any favors in her life.
Furthermore, today's Shang Kingdom is in a state of turmoil, and the king, Fa Xiaoyun, is not a kind person. And because she broke off the engagement, she and Fa Xiaotian completely turned against each other, and it was only a matter of time before she broke up with Liejiabao.
At this time, if she could get help from the Sha family, it would be a help to her and the current Jingxin Institute.
Due to emotions and reasons, she had to be the royal alchemist.
After seeing off the palace maid, Lierou was a little worried and frowned, "Hua'er, do you really want to participate in the final selection of the Royal Alchemist? I heard that this time, Lie Sisi also participated in the selection of the Royal Alchemist.
Already."
Yue Jinghua's current alchemy skills have a very high starting point, and her progress seems to be rapid. The elixirs she has refined have already reached the level of an intermediate alchemist.
But this was all with the help of a few pill prescriptions and Chaos Green Lotus Fire in Mo Xi's Book. When it came to her true talent and knowledge of herbal medicine, she was not as good as Lie Sisi.
"Mother, so what if she participated? I participated in the competition openly, so there is no need to be afraid of her. Besides, has mother forgotten who forced her daughter to almost have her engagement annulled? Now, people all over the city are making fun of Hua Hua.
"Son." Yue Jinghua knows Lie Rou very well. After all, she is from Liejiabao. She is worried that if Yue Jinghua really turns against Lie Sisi, it will be difficult to face her two uncles, but her daughter's rights are involved.
Will definitely let go.
When Lie Rou heard what Yue Jinghua said, her heart ached and she breathed a soft sigh of relief, "Since you have already made up your mind, it is useless for me to say more. But I still have another concern. If it is not necessary,
You don’t want to have anything to do with Danlu.”
"Mom, why can't we have something to do with Danlu? Isn't Grandma Feng the alchemist of Danlu? It is said that the highest honor of an alchemist is to be recognized by Danlu." Among the four major organizations on the Eastern Continent,
Yue Jinghua has successively dealt with the Temple of God, the Mercenary Union and the Assassin Alliance.
Although it is not a head-to-head confrontation, none of the people from the major organizations are weak. Danlu can compete with the other three major organizations just by refining alchemy, so there must be something special about it.
"Hua'er, mother knows that you are a child with strong opinions. Especially after you came back from Baishou Mountain, there were many things that you didn't want to tell mother, so mother didn't ask. However, you still have to listen to mother's advice on this matter.
," Lie Rou hesitated, and after a long time, she sighed, "Your grandma didn't die of illness, she died of poisoning."
Feng Wanwan? He was poisoned to death. Feng Wanwan, a senior alchemist, actually died of poisoning.
Yue Jinghua couldn't help but was stunned and blurted out: "Who killed grandma? Does grandpa know about this?"
As Lie Rou spoke, the corners of her eyes turned red, and she hesitated to speak. She looked at Yue Jinghua's determined eyes again, then calmed down and said, "Mother has been hiding this matter in her heart. Your grandpa knows it."
I guess your second grandfather and third grandfather also know about this matter, and mother suspects that it was Danlu who killed your grandmother."
