[Chapter 44: Behind the scenes] (5 more)
The old man in black sneered a few times, and after saying these provocative words, he turned around and left. The men in black also followed him. No one paid attention to Gong Shenghu and his brother's bodies.
Soon someone went to Zhenyuan Escort Agency to report the news, and someone came to clean up the body, but no one came to disturb him.
Sometimes warriors fight to death on the streets, and sometimes it is an inevitable destination. In this Xijing, there may be one or two happenings every day. If it weren't for the protagonist this time, Ye Chongtian, the son of the fourteen-year-old Dingbian Marquis, it wouldn't have attracted so much attention.
At this time, Ye Chongtian's focus had shifted to the so-called imperial medicine contest and Chong family.
He knew that the Chong family was also a big family that cultivated medicine fields, and its status in the Imperial Pharmacy has always been suppressed by the Mu family. Since Mu Mingyao's father's death, the Chong family has been ready to take over the position of the Imperial Pharmacy Bureau.
But he didn't know that the crisis in the Mu family had reached such a point.
"...The Chong family promoted the Imperial Pharmacy Bureau and the people in the court to repeatedly make suggestions in the palace, saying that the Mu family can no longer serve as the Imperial Pharmacy Bureau. After several years of hard work, they finally decided to take out precious elixirs or medicinal materials in front of the Imperial Pharmacy Bureau to compete, so as to determine the ownership of the Imperial Pharmacy Bureau..."
After the crowd dispersed, after Ye Chongtian repeatedly asked, Mu Mingyao revealed the truth.
"I haven't told Xiaobo about this yet. After he was injured this time, he was still recuperating. Don't tell him, so as not to worry about him..."
Ye Chongtian was shocked and stood up suddenly, "So sister, you cultivate Luxuezhi to deal with this imperial medicine competition? This... I am a great crime!"
No wonder Mu Mingyao tried his best to cultivate Luxuezhi. It turned out that it was indeed a major event that concerns the life and death of the Mu family.
Unfortunately, most of the Lu Xuezhi was swallowed by Ye Chongtian in one mouthful, leaving only one broken leg, which was obviously unsuitable.
Ye Chongtian felt even more guilty and didn't know how to compensate.
"This is God's will, and you can't blame you." Mu Mingyao sighed, "My father was so impressed by the emperor's heart because he presented medicine to the prince. I didn't expect that now it was because of the prince's chronic disease that we wanted to force our Mu family to withdraw from the Imperial Pharmacy Bureau. He was poisoned. Even if it was Lu Xuezhi, I'm afraid the medicine would be wrong..."
"The prince was poisoned?"
Ye Chongtian's heart moved. He was in Xijing, but the news was blocked and he didn't know such important news.
The Chong family took advantage of the prince's poisoning and advised the palace that the Mu family controlled the Imperial Pharmacy Bureau, but could not come up with medicines that could cure the prince. It was really a corpse-position. Then they proposed the imperial medicine comparison, which depends on who would make the prince slightly better.
"The poison in the prince is also the poison of the Black Snake Python Dragon. It is extremely poisonous, and Lu Xuezhi is also ineffective..."
"Now, there is no suitable medicine in the entire Enze Hall. The alchemist Zhanbutang I found that day, I heard that he was good at various antidotes of snakes and insects, but later I found that he was also a despicable person with a reputation, and it was completely useless."
Mu Mingyao sighed. At this point, it seems that he can only admit defeat.
I am afraid that the foundation of the Mu family will be unable to be protected by a weak woman who has limited abilities.
Ye Chongtian's heart moved and comforted him: "Sister Mu, there is no way out. Don't give up until the last moment. I will definitely think of a way for Sister Mu..."
Mu Mingyao smiled gently, patted his hand, and bandaged several injuries. "It's a blessing for you. I didn't expect Xiao Ye has grown into a man who stands tall now. Thank you sister..."
She originally wanted to kiss Ye Chongtian on the forehead, but she realized that the action was a little inappropriate. She suddenly blushed on her face and let go of her hand.
Ye Chongtian didn't notice these things, and he was repeatedly thinking about them.
The poison in the prince was the black sieve python dragon, and the python dragon. I don’t know if it can be classified as snake venom.
——In other words, I wonder if Baizi Baishe Pill can relieve this poison?
It is best to ask Murong Yan for this question, only she can understand such a strange classification.
However, the world in the sword is still being upgraded and has not yet been opened, and there is still three days to enter. Fortunately, although the time for the Imperial Medicine Competition is tight, it can still wait for three days.
Ye Chongtian went to visit Mu Bo. Although he had never talked about the imperial medicine competition, he also indirectly asked about the Chong family.
Mu Bo said that he was still a child's character, but whether it was related to family affairs or why he cared about it, he knew the situation of the Chong family well.
"What is the Chong family? The nouveau riche who has only emerged in the past few decades!"
While rubbing his butt, he told Ye Chongtian with a look of contempt and disdain.
"I heard that it was my grandfather's generation. Old man Chong was exiled from Yan State. He had not relied on our Mu family to gain a foothold in our Daqin. Who knew that these barbarians in Yan State were indeed unfamiliar with them. Later, the cruelest man who bit our Mu family was this white-eyed wolf!"
The great kindness is like a grudge, Ye Chongtian couldn't help but sigh and shake his head.
Although he was a fourteen-year-old boy, he already understood a lot of human nature. It was precisely because the Chong family relied on the Mu family that he had to bite the Mu family to death.
From then on, I never knew how down and out of the past.
"The Chong family has been in Daqin for a short time. Even if there is a medicine field, it may not be possible to find a better medicine than the Mu family. Why does he feel that he can surpass the Mu family?"
"Then you need to say?" Mu Bo straightened up half of his body and sneered from his nose. "The Chong family fled to Daqin just for their Tongxi Dilong Pill, which can detoxify hundreds of poisons. Now it can gain a foothold in Daqin, which is based on this thing..."
"Tongxi Dilong Pill?"
Ye Chongtian was shocked. Although he didn't know much about medicine, he had naturally heard of this well-known name.
All the strange poisons in the world can be cured, and this is a first-class medicinal treasure.
No wonder the Chong family unscrupulously promoted the imperial court. The poison of the black python dragon in the prince's place should be solved with this Tongxi Dilong Pill in his hand. But since he has this treasure, everyone knows, how could he not have given it to the Da Nei before to save the prince?
If you take out the Tongxi Dilong Pills and cure the prince, then the status of the Imperial Pharmacy Bureau has to be handed over to their Chong family. Why do you have to do such a lot of trouble?
Even if the Chong family doesn’t want to do it, I won’t be such a easy-to-talk person today?
"Yes, that's that thing." Mu Bo nodded and snorted, "But there was no trick. When he escaped from Yan State, in order to avoid the loss of Chongbao, the old man in the Chong family was also cruel enough. He used the method of planting pills to plant Tongxi Dilong Pills in his body, and he couldn't take it out..."
At this time, Ye Chongtian suddenly realized that Tongxi Dilong Pills had been planted in Old Man Chong's body, and they could not offer them even if they wanted to. If they wanted to save people, they could only use the mother-son pill method to lead the pill out, but their effectiveness was greatly reduced. I am afraid they were not sure whether they could cure the prince.
That's why this imperial medicine competition was held. The Chong family didn't need to cure the prince. As long as the Zidan of Tongxi Dilong Pills was used to slow down the prince's condition and overwhelm the Mu family, it would be enough.
After all, the Mu family is really unable to come up with any method!
