Chapter 1168 Is your fourth brother a beggar? There is no way to eat beans even if you dig them in the ash (please subscribe and vote)
With a plate of fried grasshoppers and checkers on the side, Li Zhi and Li Mingda sat there quietly and started the competition for the children's checkers championship again.
Cheng Chubi sat aside, tilting his body to look at the two guys playing checkers.
In fact, he is using his brain to seriously think about a game of chess and see how he can get revenge severely.
If you offend the Cheng family, you will not be able to live a happy life. This is an iron rule, and King Li Tai of Wei must not be allowed to think that he is an exception because he is His Royal Highness.
When Li Zhi's hand was pulling out the glass bead, he missed it, and a glass bead fell to the ground and rolled into a shallow ditch not far away.
Then he continued to roll forward and rolled into the ashes over there...
Cheng Chubi stepped forward and reached out and took out the thing.
Holding this thing covered in mud, Cheng Chubi was looking for a piece of paper to wipe it clean.
Then I heard Li Mingda's curious voice.
"This looks like what my fourth brother eats?"
"???" Cheng Chubi was completely confused. Is your fourth brother a beggar? You can't eat soybeans in the ash, nor can you eat broad beans like this?
Looking at this gray thing with glass beads wrapped in plaster, Cheng Chubi smacked his mouth and almost wanted to spit out something.
Is your fourth brother seeking death by eating this stuff, or does he want to die?
But soon, as he looked at the shape of this gray glass bead covered in plaster, Cheng Chubi felt that it looked very familiar.
After being stunned for a long time and looking at him several times, Cheng Chubi finally came to his senses.
The color is weird like bluestone. If there is a smell of sulfur, the round thing looks like a rolling ball. If it is not a five-stone powder, what is it?
Cheng Chubi has seen samples, and Ning Xuan, the unorthodox Taoist priest, did this professionally before.
That guy has almost refined it, no matter if it is a golden elixir, a five-stone powder, or other messy heavy metal polymers.
And in order to put an end to the weird appreciation angle of the feudal and superstitious doctors in the Imperial Medical Office for the effectiveness of these weird medicinal stones.
Cheng Chubi has carefully studied this type of heavy metal polymer. For example, the color of Jindan is more dazzling than that of Wushisan...
"Well, Your Highness, have you really seen your fourth brother eat this?"
"Yes, I have seen it." Li Mingda nodded vigorously.
"I went to see my fourth brother that day, but I forgot my round fan at his place, so I went back to get it."
"I saw him eating this. I asked him what he was taking, and he said it was medicine, medicine that only adults can take. He also asked me not to tell dad."
"It's because he's worried about his illness."
Cheng Chubi narrowed his eyes and carefully recalled what Li Tai was wearing today.
The dignified King of Wei was actually wearing a Taoist robe that looked old and thin.
Moreover, observing his mental state closely today, he seems to be a little depressed.
I feel like I'm getting closer to the truth.

Then, he began to ask Li Zhi and Li Mingda carefully about everything they knew.
With Li Mingda's guidance, Xiao Li Zhi also cooperated very well, following the chattering of the two little guys.
Cheng Chubi almost pieced together the truth of the matter. Wei King Li Tai was indeed taking Wu Shi Powder, a heavy metal polymer.
Cheng Chubi's eyes suddenly lit up, yo yo yo... Just now he was still thinking that it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years.
It seems that God is not happy for the Cheng family to wait for ten years. He hopes that he will seize the day and try not to let Wei King Li Tai have a good year.
Seeing Brother Cheng San's eyes shining brightly at this thing, Li Mingda couldn't help but say.
"Brother Cheng San, do you know what kind of medicine that is?
That stuff looks gray and smells bad, so it definitely doesn’t taste good.”
Cheng Chubi looked at the two little dolls, his expression became very serious and serious.
"That thing is not even medicine. Your Highness, do you still remember the story I told you before about the harm caused by Five Stone Powder?"
When Li Mingda heard this, his beautiful black eyes widened instantly and he covered his mouth with his hands.
Apparently, this little cutie remembered it. Although Cheng Chubi didn't know how Li Shimin burped.
But at least we do know a bit about the reason why the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty died in his fifties.
Part of the reason is due to the shock caused by the successive deaths of loved ones.
Another reason is that in the later stages of his life, he began to beg for immortality and took those messy heavy metal polymers.
Therefore, Cheng Sanlang felt that his relationship with Uncle Li was not easy to deal with in terms of personal grudges.
However, he also did not want this wise monarch who created the prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty to fall into disgrace early.
Especially last time, those two spirit turtles caused Cheng Sanlang to have his salary deducted.
The cute little Li Mingda pestered Cheng Sanlang to tell stories.
Cheng Chubi decided to forge ahead with the Tang Empire and began to instill in Li Mingda the idea that heavy metal polymers were harmful, regardless of past suspicions.
He also listed many specious examples in detail, in short, he wanted to make Li Mingda, a little cutie who had a great influence on Empress Changsun and Li Shimin, understand.
Heavy metal polymers will not make people live longer, they will only shorten their lives.
That's why Li Mingda became so surprised after hearing the news.

"Brother Cheng San, is this Five Stone Powder?"
Cheng Chubi's face was a little dark, so he quickly picked up a glass of water, washed the glass bead, and handed it to them.
"No, no, no, these are glass beads in my hand...but you can't eat them either."
Cheng Chubi held his chin and began to think carefully about how to solve this problem.
Tell Li Shimin, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, that it is necessary for him to come and whip that damn fat guy Qingque.
But how to tell Li Shimin that this is a technical job.
Cheng Chubi now has no physical evidence and relies entirely on his outrageously powerful logical thinking.
He also has superhuman and profound medical knowledge.
A conclusion drawn by combining the statements of the little cutie and a certain prince.
"You two, please don't tell anyone."
The two little heads nodded in unison.
Then, Li Mingda rolled his eyes and said to Li Zhi.
"Brother Ninth, please go back first. I have something to tell Mrs. Cheng."
Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, but he still nodded, got up to say goodbye, and left unsteadily.
Then, Li Mingda sat down obediently, well, he made a special trip to sit opposite Cheng Sanlang.
The cute little face looks very serious.
"Brother Cheng San, I think since this is a bad thing, I should tell my father."
"Let daddy teach fourth brother a lesson and tell him not to eat randomly in the future."
Seeing Li Mingda's serious look, Cheng Chubi also sat up straight.
He glanced at Hu Shanggong, who was already dozing off on the couch not far away.
He whispered to Li Mingda in a low voice.
"His Highness's idea is good, but all this is just speculation by the ministers and there is no solid evidence."
