Chapter 498: The Longevity Wine Left Behind
Ji Yuan and the old beggar had a heated discussion in the courtyard, during which the old servant of the Qiao family brought breakfast and ate it together in the courtyard.
And when the two were discussing the refining of magic weapons, an old eunuch was also ushered in in the front yard of Qiao's house, who was Gong Shun, the eunuch of the old emperor's confidant.
Qiao Yong led the Qiao family to salute in the front yard.
"I know the fate of the sky, knowing that Qiao Yong, the former commander of the West Town Water Division, is a loyal and righteous man, Qing has returned home to rest for several years, I wanted to make Qing rest and recuperate, but the affairs of the government and the opposition are busy, loyal and patriotic virtuous ministers are rare, and I hope that Qing will also be in the court to support the community...... From now on, the official will be reinstated to ......"
It is not surprising that he was reinstated, and even allowed to recall his old subordinates.
Although it was expected, it still made the Qiao family, including Qiao Yong, very excited, which means that he has really returned to high society, although the Qiao family can endure hardships, but who doesn't want to live a better life, and also hopes to shine on the lintel.
The old eunuch read it out loud, and it wasn't until the last word fell that everyone in the Qiao family shouted thanks.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen!"
Qiao Yong's breath trembled slightly, and he raised his head to look at the eunuch who gently closed the decree and sent it forward with both hands.
"Hehehe...... Mistress Joe. ”
Qiao Yong hurriedly accepted the gift, approached the old eunuch, and also accepted the holy decree with both hands.
"There is a father-in-law, Qiao, Qiao's family is ...... now"
The great eunuchs often have to give some benefits, and this kind of eunuch can sometimes play an unexpected role, especially Gong Shun, who is extremely favored in front of the emperor.
Gong Shun is also a good person, so he naturally knows Qiao Yong's embarrassment, so he hurriedly excused himself with both hands.
"Hey, Lord Qiao is too worried, the miscellaneous family is just acting impartially, and has no other thoughts, by the way, before I came, Your Majesty asked me to bring a message to Lord Qiao. ”
"Father-in-law, please speak!"
The old eunuch looked in the direction of Qiao's backyard and said in a low voice.
"The two immortal elders are still there, right? Your Majesty means, when will I meet the two immortal elders again and ask about the immortal path. ”
Qiao Yong understood what the emperor meant, so he naturally nodded in agreement.
"Father-in-law, please go back and tell Your Majesty that Wechen must bring the words, but the immortals act unpredictably as mortals, and Wechen can only do his best. ”
"Hey, Master Qiao don't have to worry, the emperor is very fond of you now. ”
"Uh-hehe, I still need to be carried by my father-in-law!"
"Hehehe, it's easy to say......"
Qiao Yong is also very clear now, the way of being an official, upright is naturally an excellent quality, and it is extremely rare, but it is easy to break just too much, unless the emperor and important ministers are very inclusive, it is not the way to survive.
As soon as the eunuch left, Qiao Yong hurriedly went to the guest house in the backyard, and the voice had already passed before the person arrived.
used to be called Immortal Chang, but then Ji Yuan asked him to call Mr. Ji, and the old beggar naturally asked him to call him "Old Huazi", but Mr. Ji can be called, "Old Huazi" This kind of title is too disrespectful, and the Qiao family didn't dare, so they compromised and called Mr. Lu.
"Mr. Ji, Mr. Lu, Mr. Ji, Mr. Lu, Qiao is here to disturb again, the two of you ......"
Qiao Yong's voice stopped abruptly, and when he turned the courtyard gate, he saw that Ji Yuan and the old beggar had lost their traces in the courtyard of the guest house.
"Did you leave?"
Qiao Yong panicked in his heart, he just called the package ticket and must have brought the words, there was already room for it, he didn't dare to say that it would be done, and now he may not even be able to bring the words.
He walked quickly to the courtyard, first looked at the guest houses on both sides, the doors were closed properly, and then looked at the stone table in the courtyard, the breakfast dishes were neatly placed, and the rice porridge and dried radish on it had been eaten cleanly.
Qiao Yong did not give up, first walked to Ji Yuan's house and pushed the door open, the bedding inside was neat and clean, and the interior was very transparent, leaving nothing that was not originally there, and then walked quickly to the old beggar's room, as if he had never lived in it.
"Hey...... The two immortal elders left...... How can I explain this to the emperor!"
Qiao Yong walked to the courtyard a little dejectedly, ready to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, but when he got closer, he found that there were still things blocked by dishes and trays because of the viewing angle, and it turned out to be a small jade bottle and a piece of paper on which he wrote words.
Qiao Yong was like a treasure, he didn't care about the jade bottle first, carefully picked up the paper, and after studying it carefully, he let out a sigh of relief, at least he had an explanation to the emperor.
Qiao Yong, who put down the paper, carefully picked up the small jade bottle on the stone table, this small jade bottle was about half a palm long and two fingers thick, and when it was shaken, he could feel that there was liquid inside, about the amount of a cup.
'This is the ambergris of immortal wine referred to in Mr. Ji's book?'
Seeing that there was no one around, Qiao Yong secretly pulled out the soft stopper on the small jade bottle, and suddenly, a rich aroma of wine wafted out, which was richer than the wine poured by Ji Yuan last night, and it made Qiao Yong's heart sway.
Shaking his body, Qiao Yong hurriedly stuffed the small jade bottle again, for fear that he would not be able to stand the temptation and drink it directly.
Half an hour later, in the imperial study of the palace, there were only the old emperor and the old eunuch Gong Shun, as well as Qiao Yong and the national teacher Men Yutong.
The old emperor grabbed Ji Yuan's book and read it several times, and he didn't put it down until he read it for the third time and confirmed that nothing was missing.
"Hey, Immortal Chief Ji and Immortal Chief Lu actually said goodbye without saying goodbye, although Immortal Chief Ji said that he would help inform Xianxia Island, and I would wait to find out what they couldn't do, but I don't know how the Immortal Chief of Xianxia Island would react...... And this immortal wine...... National teacher, what do you think?"
The old emperor's face was a little complicated, the immortal wine was naturally good, but he hadn't drunk it, the national teacher had specially cast a spell to transform the aura into the wine, so that the ordinary human wine became immortal wine, and it was really comfortable to drink, but it was also comfortable.
Men Yutong was observing the little jade bottle at the moment, and when he heard the old emperor's words, he knew that he wanted to be crooked, so he hurriedly explained.
"Your Majesty, the ministers of Xianxia Island dare not make a conclusion, but if there is a plan for the immortal chief, there must be a little more hope. As for this wine, this is a real immortal brew, and the poor method of casting a spell to turn the aura into the wine is very different, the real immortal brew from the material to the refining method, and then to the care of the wine, it can be called a unique method, to some extent, it seems to be alchemy, and it is ......."
As he spoke, Men Yutong reached out and pinched the soft stopper of the small bottle and carefully pulled it open.
The unique aroma of ambergris emanated, and the people present were fascinated by it.
"What's the matter...... The sentence left by Ji Xian Chang in the book, 'The king of rivers and rivers is carefully refined'...... Your Majesty, Ji Xianchang uses 'Jun', not 'God'......"
"Uh, what's the difference?"
The old emperor subconsciously reached out to the small jade bottle, and at the same time, his face was slightly nervous and expectant.
"Of course there is a difference...... The difference is so great......"
Men Yutong carefully handed the jade pendant to the old emperor, nodded and explained.
"Now that the dragon clan is respected in the water, and the king of the rivers and rivers is qualified, that can only refer to a true dragon! Your Majesty, this wine is carefully refined by the true dragon, and the name is ambergris, perhaps it means that the real dragon will drool when he sees this wine! In other words, this is the real wine of immortality!"
The old emperor's body was shocked, and he grabbed the jade bottle in his hand, restrained the strong urge to drink it immediately, and did not forget to ask.
"National teacher, what kind of medicine do you need for this wine, and I won't waste the medicinal power if I drink it directly, right?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry, Immortal Ji didn't have any special advice, it must be drunk directly, uh, if it's convenient for Your Majesty, can you, can you leave some Rongchen to study and study, no more, just a few drops!"
The old emperor couldn't hold back any longer, just nodded to the national teacher, swallowed the saliva in his mouth first, and then the small jade bottle was facing his mouth, and he looked up to the sky and drank the wine in the bottle, and in the process of drinking, the aroma of ambergris seemed to be several times richer.
"Gollum..... Gollum ......"
This is the sound of the old emperor swallowing ambergris.
"Gollum ......" "Gollum ......"
This was the sound of Qiao Yong and the great eunuch Gong Shun swallowing saliva, and even Men Yutong on the side had a slight sensation in his throat.
As soon as the wine was sipped, the old emperor felt a boiling hot current fall from his throat to his stomach, and then it merged into his body in an instant, rushing to his limbs and hundreds of remains, and the heat flow all over his body continued, and his muscles and bones seemed to be burned, but it was not painful, but very comfortable, but at the same time, his mind began to be confused, and his head became dizzy.
"Good...... Wine ......"
Only spit out these two words, and the exaggerated strength of ambergris came up, and the old emperor shook it twice and poured it to one side.
"Your Majesty!"
Qiao Yong and the old eunuch each stepped out, one left and one right to support the fallen old emperor, while Men Yutong hurriedly reached out to catch the small jade bottle that fell off from the old emperor's hand.
After carefully looking at the bottle, Men Yutong just sighed slightly, and said that it would be okay to leave a few drops, and there was only a little lingering fragrance left......
But even so, Men Yutong hurriedly plugged the jade bottle tightly with a soft stopper, and this lingering fragrance was reluctant to be wasted.
"Master Guoshi, Your Majesty, is he okay?"
The old eunuch asked worriedly, and Men Yutong smiled.
"Drinking, drunk and drunk, what can I do, send Your Majesty to the palace to rest, as short as a day or as long as three or five days, and you will inevitably wake up. ”
"Yes!"
The old eunuch and Qiao Yong were relieved.
......
Ji Yuan and the old beggar left because they noticed that Tu Siyan had woken up, purely because there was a heated discussion about the refining of the magic weapon, and the place in the backyard of the Qiao family was no longer suitable, and the most suitable place was actually Jiufeng Mountain.
But before that, the two of them naturally had to take a trip to Pozi Mountain, although there was no indication that Tu Siyan would wake up immediately, but this fox demon could not be judged by common sense, and after passing by, he naturally had to take a look.
Sure enough, the closer they got to Pozi Mountain, the more vaguely Ji Yuan and the old beggar felt in their hearts, knowing that the fox had woken up.
