Chapter 597 The elixir is still a pill
Of course, there are many reasons why Zhen Qian could not enter the capital of the Japanese Kingdom, such as Zhen Qian was not a regular envoy and did not have a national certificate, and for example, Zhen Qian's request to bring a prince back to the Tang Dynasty to study this time was enough for the Japanese State to refuse Zhen Qian's request to enter Kyoto.
In fact, from the top to the youngest, the Japanese did not want to see their emperor become a vassal of other countries, and if they were willing, they would not risk their lives to send batches of envoys to the Tang Dynasty to learn advanced management experience.
Zhen Qian went to the country of Wa, and he originally planned to be a monk for a day and hit the clock for a day to avoid An Lushan's sight.
I didn't expect that I really took the right step this time, my soju aroused An Lushan's peeping, and the perfume made Mrs. Yu Guo and Yang Guozhong greedy, if you add the small actions behind the back of her mother's Langya Wang family, if Zhen Qian didn't choose to leave Datang at the beginning, any force would be able to crush him.
Zhen Qian knew very well that in the face of absolute power, he had no chance to resist, not even the entire Zhen family.
Zhen Qian can't afford to lose, and he can't lose, so he can only choose to leave Datang for development.
Not to mention it far away, let's just say that Li Linfu, the prime minister before Yang Guozhong, although he was a traitor, helped Li Longji stabilize the government during his reign, and this great credit was only because of the unwarranted collusion with the border generals to rebel, so he was ordered by Li Longji to dig up the grave, and he was not able to live in peace after his death, and the family was even more involved and exiled to the miasma.
Zhen Qian doesn't think that he has the ability and influence of Li Linfu, what can Li Linfu do?
There is no place of tranquility under imperial power!
Playing wisdom with imperial power, even if he is as cunning as a fox, in the end it will be the end of the rabbit and the dog.
It is really because he knows this that Zhen Qian has never thought of being an official to influence Li Longji and use his thousand-year-old knowledge to change the status quo. My own political experience is really smarter than those ancients, and if I really think like this, I can only change my own head in the end.
Li Longji doesn't care about how much money Zhen Qian has, and naturally he doesn't care about a little person like Zhen Qian, it is no exaggeration to say that Li Longji doesn't remember who Zhen Qian is at this time.
But today, Li Longji sat behind the imperial case, holding a delicate small glass bottle in his hand in a daze, and Gao Lishi stood bent over, staring at half of Li Longji's face without blinking, as if waiting for something?
"This Zhen ...... is the deputy envoy who sent the envoy to the Wa Kingdom? Didn't he die in a storm? ”
"Zhen Qian!" Gao Lishi lowered his eyes and reminded cautiously, as for the later words, he could only pretend that he didn't know anything.
Li Longji did not care about Zhen Qian's life and death, not long ago, Abe Zhongmaro, who had been missing with Zhen Qian for nearly half a year, sent back the news from Guangzhou, and it was unexpectedly blown to the coast of Luzhou in today's Vietnam by a storm, and after landing, he unexpectedly suffered another catastrophe, and the whole ship was more than 170 people, most of whom were killed by the local natives, and the survivors were only more than 10 people, including Nakamaro and Fujiwara Kiyokawa, which made many Abe Zhongmaro friends cry with joy after hearing the news.
This kind of thing has long been accustomed to businessmen who often go to sea, and some of them don't even know where they drift there, and they stay on a desert island for a few years, and some are caught by the natives on the island, and are raised as stallions by the natives of the aborigines.
Therefore, after returning to China, maritime merchants often said that it is not unreasonable to leave Datang and be surrounded by a wild land.
Abe Nakamaro is still alive, and the Tang Dynasty is also alive to make Fujiwara Qinghe, and now that Zhen Qian has sent back the news from the Wa Kingdom, Li Longji will naturally not be surprised.
Since Zhen Qian did not die and arrived alive, then stay in the Japanese country, complete the task of sending the Japanese to the Japanese country, and return to the Tang Dynasty after it is completed.
After Li Longji learned that Zhen Qian was not dead, his first reaction was to think like this, but he didn't expect that Zhen Qian would not only send back the news this time, but also bring back something for himself.
Thinking of what Zhen Qian gave him, Li Longji's eyelids couldn't help jumping, and Gao Lishi on the side was keenly aware of Li Longji's reaction, and according to his understanding of Li Longji for many years, he knew in his heart that Li Longji was tempted by the things in his hand.
Gao Lishi has the right to inspect all the things and pieces presented to Li Longji in advance, especially the things that are from unknown sources, and it is impossible to easily present them to Li Longji.
"Elixir!"
This word should be used to refer to the things in Li Longji's hands now, this thing is Zhen Qiantuo's North Road maritime merchants arrived in Dengzhou from Silla Kingdom, and was sent to the capital by Dengzhou Assassin Shi with 600 li expedited, the reason why it is expedited by such a fast post station is that one is Zhen Qian's identity, and the other is that the thing Zhen Qian sent this time is an offering for Li Longji's birthday.
Gao Lishi did not expect that Zhen Qian still remembered Li Longji's birthday on the eighth day of the ninth month in the Japanese Kingdom, and he was worthy of the duty of a loyal courtier.
However, Li Longji got the date of Zhen Gan's presentation of the elixir, and it was already two days after Li Longji's birthday, but this did not affect Li Longji's good impression of Zhen Gan, thousands of miles away, separated by a vast sea, this loyalty has left a deep imprint in Li Longji's heart, and the influence on Zhen Qian has increased by one point.
"This elixir?"
Gao Lishi glanced at the exquisite glass bottle in Li Longji's hand with the corner of his eye, there are nine such glass bottles, each glass bottle contains nine golden pills, each pill is only the size of a cherry, and the quality is very good!
Li Longji is the Ninth Five-Year Honor, but not everything that can be eaten can be placed in front of Li Longji, especially the pills offered by some Taoist priests, not only the imperial doctor must personally test the pharmacology, but also find someone to personally test the medicine, and repeatedly prove that there is no problem before it can be presented to Li Longji.
The pills offered by Zhen Qian, of course, in Zhen Qian's words, these are pills for strengthening the body, and they have nothing to do with the elixir.
In the recital that arrived with the pill, Zhen Qian not only recorded the ingredients in the pill in detail, but also recorded the process of discovering the main medicine of the pill, and explained that many things in the memoir are some legends of the locals, and the authenticity is impossible to verify, and there is not a single word about the elixir from beginning to end.
Li Longji, who has always been suspicious, opened his eyes and said, "The grass of tomorrow in Zhen Qian's mouth, is there really such a miracle?" ”
"The old slave doesn't know!" Gao Lishi really didn't know, and he asked a lot of imperial doctors and couldn't say clearly, as for Zhen Qian's mention in the chapter, Qin Shi Huang asked Xu Fu to go to the sea to seek immortal medicine, including the plant of tomorrow grass, but unfortunately Zhen Qian did not find any Penglai Immortal Island, but in a place called Bazhang Island, he found the descendants of three thousand boys and girls that Xu Fu brought overseas, and found this plant of tomorrow grass on this island, and the people on the island eat this thing all year round, and they can live to be one hundred and eighty years old without disease or disaster. The pill made of this herb is specially dedicated to Li Longji to celebrate Li Longji's birthday!
