"It is instinct for the emperor to be jealous and burn bridges... He can live forever, but he may not want his ministers to live forever together... Then I will be in danger.
"However, with these few months of buffer, and even a large sum of money being paid into the account, it is enough. Aaron walked out of the Imperial Garden, thinking about things secretly.
Immortality elixir?
Of course it is fake and cannot be refined!
He doesn't care about the emperor at all. If he deceives the emperor, he will deceive him. So what can he do?
The key is... others don’t know!
In front of him, Master Zishi came over and walked side by side with him. He was obviously in a hurry.
"Xu Lingzi, do you really dare to extend the life of a real dragon? Do you really do it? Are you not afraid that the orthodoxy will perish and never recover?"
A glimmer of light flashed in Master Zishi's eyes.
"Bold! I am a true king with a higher rank than the third rank. You should call me the true king! Could it be that you are trying to commit the following crime?"
Aaron also realized that this man wanted to use Taoism, he sneered in his heart, and suddenly shouted.
Boom!
A dragon roar seemed to flash past Master Zishi's ears, and he involuntarily took three steps back. His vision went dark, his throat hurt, and his mouth was full of fishy sweetness.
He forced himself to hold back and swallowed a mouthful of blood.
"Master Zishi, I am a third-level king. When you speak in the future, you must clearly distinguish between superiority and inferiority!"
Aaron seemed unaware and laughed.
The true king is of the third rank. As a casual official, his Qi is actually no more than the fifth rank, which is equivalent to a local magistrate.
Of course, this is also quite scary!
If the Taoist disciples could cast spells to suppress the prefect, the world would have been in chaos.
Therefore, Aaron just drank it lightly, and Master Zishi suffered a backlash and almost vomited blood!
"What Zhenjun said is true. I was rude." Taoist Zishi had to apologize.
"Well, I'll just remember it in the future."
Aaron Shishiran left.
Looking at his back, Master Zishi's face was full of frost: "There is no harm from dragon energy, but there are benefits from dragon energy...
Who is this Xu Lingzi?!"
"Sure enough, my official luck can restrain other Taoists...I'm afraid the same goes for monks!" The law does not add nobles, and now I am also a noble! As Aaron walked away, he sighed: "The practitioners in this world,
How miserable!”
He secretly calculated that after being canonized as a true king, his Qi points had skyrocketed. Although he had not yet unlocked "Spreading beans and forming an army, it feels like it is not far away. He just needs to wait for a while to save up." The poor Liujia Shen.
Soldiers, just around the corner! When I was in the right mood, I saw a girl running out from behind a rockery.
She was about fifteen or sixteen years old. She was wearing two buns and was very cute. She was running along with her skirt held up.
Behind him were several panting palace maids and eunuchs.
"In the royal garden, this girl is either a concubine or a princess...* At this time, the girl also discovered Aaron,
He couldn't help but stop and his face turned slightly red.
"Who's ahead?"
Aaron smiled and asked the eunuch who was leading him.
"True Lord Qi, this is Emperor Roukang!"
The little eunuch answered quickly and said to Emperor Roukang: "This is the newly canonized psychic Yuanmiao Zhenjun by the official family!"
"Pindao has seen the princess!"
The so-called emperor concubine is naturally the daughter of the emperor, that is, the princess.
Aaron bowed and left without caring what happened to Roukang.
"A chance encounter? Or a coincidence?"
"Could it be that the emperor still wants me to be his consort?"
"Well...compared to the example of the previous dynasty, it is really not impossible."
"It's a pity that I'm not interested in little girls... Instead of looking for her, it's better to look for Shishi"
When Aaron returned to the mansion, the officials immediately gave him a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry, ginseng, Ganoderma, mercury, cinnabar and other materials. Aaron also sealed the door and only told the outside world that he would start refining elixirs.
And the news of the "Eternal Life Pill", the elixir of death, also spread like wildfire, reaching the capital in the blink of an eye.
"Nonsense!"
In the Privy Council Palace.
Tong Jing threw a piece of paper to the ground angrily: "The officials are so fond of the evil ways. They actually allow the evil ways to harm people.
It’s too much to be a Jinshi, and now I have to make some longevity pills... It’s really, really..."
He was originally devoted to the public good and his country, and he had the desire to expand his territory and even make him a prince or king.
In the past, I also got along well with the officials, monarchs and ministers. With the support of the officials, I was able to obtain some military honors and secure my position as Privy Councilor.
Looking back on the past and looking at the present, I can't help but feel disappointed.
Since the failure of the reform, the official family has lost its previous vigor. Instead, it has focused on seeking immortality, asking questions, and expressing its love for calligraphy and painting. When Tong Jing saw this scene, he was naturally very anxious, but he had no choice but to do anything.
By now, I have gradually become desperate.
While he was thinking about it, a close family member walked into the house: "Master Wen Ruoming would like to see you! Please!"
Tong Jing stood up quickly, straightened her clothes, and then felt it was inappropriate: "Invite him to meet me in the garden!"
Wen Ruoming was born in a Hanlin family. He was known as a child prodigy since he was a child. He passed the imperial examination at the age of fifteen and became a Jinshi at the age of eighteen... He was the author of "Shishuo" and "Comments on Sentences". He was quite famous in the literary world and was deeply regarded by scholars all over the world. see.
Song Chao valued literature over martial arts, so Tong Jing was simply flattered by the visit from such a literary leader.
garden.
"Mr. Zongshan!"
When Tong Jing saw an old man with a clear face coming in, he quickly stood up and saluted.
"I don't dare to act like this when I'm a Privy Councilor." I sat down with Wen Ruoming with a smile, and after drinking two cups of tea, I suddenly sighed: "Privy Councilor knows that Qian Tianru is dead, and Xia Houying was also bitten by a rat at home." , I’m afraid that I will also contract a serious disease.”
"This evil way is beyond the pale!"
A murderous look flashed in Tong Jing's eyes.
"The officials are so favored, and there are even rumors that they want to marry Emperor Roukang's concubine." Wen Ruoming sighed, "What can we do?"
One Wen and one Wu sat opposite each other, both of them somewhat resentful.
A few hours later, Wen Ruoming walked out of the Privy Council Palace and got into a carriage.
There was another person in the carriage, holding a folding fan, and asked hurriedly: "Can the child eunuch express his position?"
"After all, this person was promoted by the officials. In my opinion, he is still a man of justice."
Wen Ruoming has a way of caressing his beard.
"That's good..."
The scholar holding a folding fan seemed to have a mysterious look on his face: "Elixir of longevity, elixir of death? Can it really be made?"
"Even if it can be refined, it's not something you and I can imagine... What's more, if Taoism rises, where will my famous religion be?"
Wen Ruoming asked coldly.
Two months have passed in a flash.
This night.
Aaron was guarding the huge bronze tripod with three legs and two ears, pretending to make elixirs. Suddenly he felt something in his heart and walked outside.
Looking in the direction of the Royal Palace.
"I suddenly had a sudden impulse. Is something going to happen?"
He thought for a while and opened his spiritual vision.
Red, yellow, green... all kinds of gorgeous colors are spreading in front of your eyes, constantly rendering the surroundings.
And in the sky above the palace, the shape of a true dragon with a snake body and a fish tail and basalt claws vaguely emerged.
This real dragon was golden on the outside and green on the inside, with pure purple eyes. It was just very weak, and it roared unwillingly and suddenly fell apart.
