Li Zhi, don't be a coward

This night, Chang'an City was not peaceful.

There was ebullition in front of the post gate of Honglu Temple, and someone knocked on the door of Liu Rengui's house on the other side of Chang'an City.

The old servant rubbed his sleepy eyes and opened the door, only to find several men in black standing outside the door.

The old servant was startled, and before he stepped forward to ask, a man in black handed over a letter with both hands.

After receiving the letter, the old servant turned around with a solemn expression and went back to the yard.After an hour of incense sticks, the gray-haired Liu Rengui came out in draped clothes, frowning and staring at the people outside the door.

Standing outside the door was not only a man in black, but also three or five patients with pale faces lying on the soft pockets.

Liu Rengui turned around in silence, and motioned to the old servant. The old servant understood, and hurriedly opened the side door, letting everyone into the yard.

After a long time, Liu Rengui went out in casual clothes, got into the carriage, and hurried towards the residence of Hao Chujun, the Minister of Officials.

After another hour, Liu Rengui and Hao Chujun went out side by side, heading towards the right minister Xu Jingzong's residence.

Outside the post gate of Honglu Temple, under Xue Na's desperate urging, Lu Jiayiduo bravely poured Wu Minzhi a pack of medicinal powder, and took it with water.

Xue Na looked at Wu Minzhi full of hope, but Lu Jiayi's face was anxious, and his heartbeat became more and more violent.

Wu Minzhi lay pale on the cold ground, his body was still twitching slightly, but the symptoms were not so exaggerated, just a few intermittent twitches, the amplitude was not too big, it was within the normal and operable range.

Xue Na's expression was anxious, but a trace of relief flashed in his eyes.

That's right. Playing pendulum also requires acting skills. Wu Minzhi's trembling performance just now is not called pendulum, it is called ghost upper body.

After Xue Na's severe lesson, Wu Minzhi didn't dare to display his exaggerated acting skills anymore, and everything was performed smoothly.

Unsteady is not enough, Wu Minzhi is afraid that Xue Na will beat his shit out, this man is really ruthless, he is indeed a killer who just returned from the battlefield of Goguryeo.

After being fed a pack of medicinal powder by Lu Jiayi, Wu Minzhi patiently maintained his original state, only twitching occasionally.

Xue Na anxiously asked Lu Jiayi, "When will the medicine take effect?"

Lu Jiayi stared at Wu Minzhi's face without blinking, and said anxiously: "It's coming soon."

After a while, Wu Minzhi's body suddenly trembled violently, struggling uncontrollably.

Both Xue Na and Lu Jiayi's expressions changed.

Xue Na stared at Lu Jia Yiduo, his eyes were bloodshot and red: "This medicine...is it real or not? Why is he like this?"

Lu Jiayi was frightened, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said: "He, he... the effect of the medicine took effect, maybe there is a little discomfort, and it should be fine after a while."

"'Should'?" Xue Na gritted his teeth and said angrily: "This is a human life. He is the nephew of the current empress. You are a well-known master in the court and the public, so can't you give me a correct sentence?"

Lu Jiayi's face turned cold: "Since you don't believe me, why did you send him here? When you sent him here, he was already dying. I just tried my best. Medicine can cure diseases, and Buddha's journey is destined." Man, if he is destined to die, what can I do?"

Xue Na was furious: "If you can't do it, you can't do it, and you dare to shirk responsibility. If you put him to death, you will understand the consequences. He is not only the queen's nephew, but also a disciple of Li Qinzai, the Duke of Liaodong County, and has many powerful friends in Chang'an." Brother, if he dies, you can bury him with him!"

Lu Jiayi's heart trembled.

Now he is really scared, who knows that this person is so powerful, the queen's nephew is nothing more than Li Qinzai is his teacher, then Li Qinzai has murderous intentions towards him, if his disciple is put to death Yes, this enmity is endless.

Lu Jiayi realized that if something happened to Wu Minzhi tonight, his days in Chang'an might be numbered.

Today, the only thing he relies on is the trust of the emperor, and the root of the emperor's trust in him is that he claims to be able to refine the elixir of life and cure various intractable diseases.

If Wu Minzhi dies, it means that his medical skills are not good enough to reach the emperor's ears. Will the emperor still trust him unconditionally?How much will be suspicious?
If the trust of the emperor is shaken, his only reliance will cease to exist.Then the people waiting to kill him include the queen, Li Qinzai, and countless children of the rich and powerful in Chang'an City. It can be said that they are surrounded by enemies.

Can he survive in Chang'an City as a charlatan?
Lu Jiayi's face gradually became as pale as Wu Minzhi's.

He didn't expect that tonight was not only Wu Minzhi's doom, but also his doom.

Lying on the ground, Wu Minzhi's body twitched more and more frequently and violently. The veins on his neck were bulging, and his hands were like convulsed chicken feet. The joints opened and contracted at strange angles. suffer great pain.

A moment later, Wu Minzhi opened his mouth wide open, making a meaningless "ho ho" sound, like a roar suppressed in the core of a volcano.

This appearance frightened the people around, Xue Na's face turned pale with anxiety, and Dang even grabbed Lu Jiayiduo's lapel with both hands.

"Bastard, what did you feed him? If you don't give him an explanation, you won't be able to make it through tonight!" Xue Na said angrily.

Lu Jiayi said in disbelief: "I, I, I... What I gave him is of course medicine, our Tianzhu's magic medicine, it will be cured soon, it will be cured soon..."

The voice became lower and lower, obviously he had no confidence.

Xue Na stared at him with bloodshot eyes, and said in a serious tone: "I said before, if something happens to him, if you want to bury him with him, the emperor will not protect you."

The man-eating eyes and murderous tone made Lu Jiayi terrified, and then he looked at Wu Minzhi on the ground. At this moment, he had already sensed that the steel knife of fate was silently resting on his neck. Will fall anytime.

"I, I... give him some more medicine." Lu Jiayi said in a panic.

Xue Na let go of his hand, and said coldly: "You just do it, I don't care about the process, as long as Minzhi survives, otherwise you will die."

Taking out another pack of medicine powder from his bosom, Lu Jiayi fed it into Wu Minzhi's mouth with trembling hands.

After a long time, Wu Minzhi's symptoms still didn't improve, but Lu Jiayiduo started to waver, not because he was sick, but because he was afraid.

After waiting for a while, Wu Minzhi's twitching body suddenly froze, his eyes opened abruptly, he glared at the sky in pain, let out a hoarse roar, and then lay down heavily on the ground, his whole body was out of breath, but there was no movement. The jerks are gone.

Xue Na turned pale with shock, put a finger under Wu Minzhi's nose, and finally cried out sadly: "Nephew Minzhi——!"

Lu Jiayi was sweating profusely, and murmured absentmindedly: "Dead, dead?"

Xue Na looked up with tears in his eyes, staring at Lu Jiayiduo's eyes full of murderous intent.

"Dog thief, accept your life!"

Lu Jiayi was so startled, he hurriedly took two steps back, opened his hands, and said in a panic: "Wait, wait! There is still help, he still has help! I still have a life-saving elixir in my room, the only one in the world, I am the only one in the world. Bring it now!"

After speaking, Lu Jiayi turned around and rushed into the post.
