Daqin: The poorest prime minister, the first emperor begged me to corrupt

Chapter 78 The bad old man is really bad!

"Here."

Gongsunye agreed, took two young grandchildren to stand aside, and left the court to everyone, as if he had put himself in the position of an eunuch.

Seeing that he was so stubborn, Qin Mo asked with some concern: "If you really dare to make your grandson an eunuch, you will definitely not be tolerated by my side. Such cruel and ruthless people are not worthy of flaunting their loyalty! "

Gongsunye bowed his hands solemnly: "What the lord said is very true, and I deeply believe it."

Qin Mo nodded in satisfaction, and instead invited Ying Zheng's family of three to sit down.

Ying Zheng waved his hand, telling him not to be restrained. He looked at the half bowl of soup in Yu Ji's hand and said, "I heard from the waiter that Aiqing is afraid of illness and avoids medical treatment, so I come here because I don't want to take the soup."

"Just now when I was outside, I saw that the eunuch had already tested Aiqing's medicine. At this moment, looking at her appearance, there is nothing unusual. Aiqing should also take it, so that she can recover as soon as possible."

Qin Mo was speechless: "..."

There's no escape, right?

Everyone wants to persuade me to drink a couple of sips!

Seeing the resistance on his face, Ying Zheng took out a small jade bottle that was kept close to him, opened the stopper and let Qin Mo see what was inside, and said, "If Aiqing doesn't want to take the bitter decoction, I also have a few golden pills here. Give it to Aiqing to obey!"

Saying that, he stuffed the jade bottle directly into Qin Mo's hands, but it looked like he was reluctant to give up his love.

But Qin Mo looked at the small metal-colored pill in the bottle, his face darkened immediately, he looked at Xia Wuqie coldly and said, "You refined this pill for Your Majesty?"

In this era, there is no separation between pills and medicines, and there is no clear boundary between alchemists who make alchemy and seek immortality, and doctors who heal diseases and wounds.

Even, it is the same wave of people who only pursue different ideals!

"I really disdain the theory of refining alchemy and seeking immortality. How can you refine elixir?"

"Even the decoction in Yezhe Yu's hand, actually didn't contain lead and mercury, Prime Minister Qin was worried."

Xia Wuqie categorically shook his head in denial and explained.

Qin Mo nodded in confidence and heaved a sigh of relief: "It's better if you didn't refine it, so as not to lose your head and bring trouble to your relatives."

Just kidding, Xia Wuqie led the medical battalion during the war, and he went out with him not once or twice, and Qin Mo attached great importance to the medical battalion, often pointing out some half-baked medical theories for later generations.

Xia Wuqi has also been more or less affected, and in terms of medical practice, he has broken away from the limitations of the times and has become a family of his own.

Moreover, he is now the chief medical teacher of Daqin Academy, and he often goes to give lectures.

If he believed in those messy things, Qin Mo would not allow him to teach, otherwise he might teach a group of great immortals!
But, I'm afraid that Ying Zheng gave the order, and Xia Wuju was ordered to refine it, then it would be over...

Because, Qin Mo is going to attack alchemists!
"The two lovers don't believe in the theory of alchemy and immortality?"

Seeing the two of them like this, Ying Zheng couldn't help frowning his thick eyebrows, and asked Chi Chi.

Qin Mo and Xia Wuqiu shook their heads together: "If you don't believe me, Your Majesty had better not take the golden elixir."

Ying Zheng was noncommittal: "I have taken it, and after taking it, my spirit is very refreshed. Even if I can't live forever, I can strengthen my body if I think about it."

Qin Mo said helplessly: "Your Majesty, if you want to strengthen your body, you can use thousands of medicines in the world, so why take golden pills?"

"It should be known that this golden elixir has a strange color, there must be..."

Ying Zheng interrupted him with a wave of his hand, took the medicine bowl from Yu Ji's hand, handed it to him and said, "Since Aiqing also knows that taking medicine can strengthen the body, I will take this bowl of soup first, and then come to persuade me."

Qin Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry, knowing that he couldn't avoid it, he gritted his teeth and took the bowl of soup and medicine, closed his eyes and drank it down in one gulp.

Then, the facial features shrank into a ball instantly, and couldn't help but smacked his lips and complained: "Old Xia, what did you put in it?"

Xia Wuqi stroked the goat's beard and said quietly: "Added the urine of a baby under the full moon. It tastes salty and cold in nature. It can reduce fire and cool blood. It can cure Qin Xiang's dryness and heart fire."

"Yuck~"

Qin Mo's face turned green, and he retched immediately.

Gongsunye, who drank half a bowl earlier, also had a throbbing throat.

But Yingzheng and Fusu Yuanman, as well as Yuji and the officials of the Tingwei's mansion, couldn't hold back any longer, and burst out laughing outright, "Puff hahaha..."

Qin Mo didn't have time to talk to them, he retched, picked up the kettle on the coffee table, poured half of the kettle into his mouth to rinse his mouth, and passed the remaining half to Gongsun Ye for use.

After the two of them rinsed their mouths, they stuffed candied fruit into their mouths again, which made them feel better!
"The bad old man is really bad... Where is he going?"

Qin Mo chewed the candied fruit, trying to find Xia Wujue to settle the score, but when he turned around, he realized that there was no shadow of Xia Wujue behind him.

On the contrary, outside the courtyard gate, the back of old man Xia can be vaguely seen, he is walking fast, the officer of Ting Wei's mansion is afraid that he will trip and break his old bones, so he still stretches out his hand to support him.

"I ran very fast, and I will settle accounts with you later."

Qin Mo angrily withdrew his gaze, turned to Ying Zheng and said, "Your Majesty, the subject has already taken the medicine, and your Majesty should accept the advice. Don't take the golden pill again in the future."

Ying Zheng suppressed a smile and nodded, "Aiqing is willing to drink urine, so why don't I accept my advice."

As soon as these words came out, Fu Su, Yuan Man and Yu Ji laughed again.

Even Gongsunye, who also drank his urine, couldn't help laughing, probably because he didn't expect the talented and bold Emperor Shi Huang to have such a bad taste in private.

Qin Mo said with a sullen face: "Your Majesty, don't take it to heart. If you eat too many golden pills, you will lose your lifespan."

"If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can order the alchemists who offer golden elixirs to refine more, and then order them to take it every day. You can see how powerful it is in less than ten months!"

Hearing that he was so sure, Yingzheng also put away his jokes, and muttered: "The golden elixir is made by extracting the essence of all things in the world, and it must be taken according to the season."

"The alchemist once said that taking too much frequency is harmful and not beneficial. Aiqing may be biased!"

Qin Mo was speechless: "..."

How could he still justify himself?

Sure enough, it is reasonable to exist. Some things can prevail, and there are still people who believe in them for hundreds of thousands of years, which is also reasonable!
Qin Mo was silent for a moment, and tried to say: "Maybe you can find poultry and small animals, and feed them golden pills, and see if there is any difference?"

Ying Zheng laughed and shook his head, "Man is the spirit of all things. How can poultry and small animals be compared? Even if there is a difference in taking golden pills, it is common sense."

Qin Mo lost his temper completely, and smacked his lips for a while, speechless.

It has to be said that this set of logic developed by alchemists is really impeccable, whether it is self-deception or deception, it is very easy to use.

Combined with the golden pill mixed with many precious medicinal materials, any refreshing effect can be justified, hypnotizing yourself or others, and perseveringly seeking the way of longevity...

Thinking of this, Qin Mo's eyes lit up and he said, "Your Majesty, please order someone to check if those alchemists who often take golden elixirs have bloodshot eyes, and whether their beard and hair are falling off."

"If you take it for a long time, you will not even be afraid of cold and heat, just like a fairy!"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng couldn't help being a little dazed, hesitantly asked, "Did Ai Qing meet Lu Sheng?"

Qin Mo was puzzled, but before he could ask who Lu Sheng was, Fusu beside him explained: "Lu Sheng is a native of Yan, and he went to Xianyang in his early years to spread the theory of alchemy and seeking immortality, which was recommended by the nobles, and they are all willing to donate generously to help Its alchemy."

"He doesn't know how old he is, he has white hair and a childlike face, his eyes are like blood, and he is not afraid of cold and heat. No matter in the middle of winter or the sweltering heat of summer, he always wears plain white robes. He really looks like a fairy!"

Qin Mo suddenly nodded, bowed his hands to Ying Zheng and said in a deep voice, "I haven't seen any stoves, I only know that the poison is deep, and the five senses have been eroded by the poison, and I can no longer feel heat or cold."

"Your Majesty can order someone to go to Yandi to find out his real age, and then send someone to check his tongue to see if he has acne!"

Ying Zheng was numb, tongue-tied, and could no longer utter a rebuttal.

Because, now he often has acne in his mouth, and his breath smells extremely bad.

Xia Wuqi and other doctors diagnosed and treated him, but they couldn't find out the cause of the disease, so they could only prescribe some decoctions for regulating the spleen and stomach and calming the deficiency fire.

Maybe Qin Mo drank the boy's urine medicine soup, he had also drank it before, but he didn't know it...

This is not the point, the point is that he had checked Lu Sheng's details earlier, and his real age was only forty, not as old as him.

But at that time, who would have thought that Lu Sheng's abnormality was poisoning?

Ying Zheng thought that guy already had the body of a half-celestial being, so he was very envious.

After all, her white hair is like frost, her eyes are like blood, and she is not afraid of cold and heat, which is really cool to watch.

But at this moment, thinking about poisoning, it is extremely terrifying!

A guy younger than himself, his hair is all white after taking poison, his eyes are bloodshot, and he doesn't know whether he is hot or cold.

It's so meow, only the old man who is about to die will know the cold and heat!

The more Ying Zheng thought about it, the more his scalp became dizzy, thinking that he had taken so many poisons in the past, it was even more disgusting.

It's more disgusting than Qin Mo drinking the boy's urine medicine soup!
Well, I may have also drank that boy's urine medicine soup, which made it even more disgusting...

"Gudu~"

Ying Zheng swallowed a mouthful of saliva, resisting the nausea in his chest and abdomen, and asked, "Ai Qing, can the poison of this golden elixir be cured?"

"Your Majesty had better call the doctor."

Qin Mo helplessly spread his hands, but then said again: "However, looking at His Majesty's complexion, it seems that the poisoning is not too deep. I won't take the golden elixir anymore. After a long time, the body will slowly expel the erysipelas."

"In addition, you can also drink some milk every day, which may have the effect of detoxifying erysipelas!"

Ying Zheng nodded, stopped chatting with him, drove away from the yard, and went back to find milk to drink.

Fu Su and Yuan Man also hurriedly cared to keep up. No matter how bad I am, I am still Lao Tzu, and death is not beautiful.

Qin Mo shouted from behind: "Your Majesty needs to deal with it sooner!"

"Leave all the power to Aiqing, Aiqing will do as he sees."

"Here!"

Ying Zheng didn't turn his head and said a word, the people had drifted away, Qin Mo raised his hands and responded loudly.

Then, he turned to Yu Ji and said: "Hold my seal, call the post officials in the county, and send orders to Xianyang. All alchemists in the world who advocate alchemy and seeking immortality will be arrested and reformed in the academy."

Concubine Yu asked suspiciously, "Reform what?"

"They are all talented people who are literate and proficient in pharmacology. As long as they get rid of their delusions of seeking immortality and learn some orthodox medical theories, they will be rare and good doctors."

"After the transformation is completed, if you go to treat the common people, it will be regarded as hard labor."

"There are too many people in Daqin, and we will always feel that there are too few doctors!"

Qin Mo laughed hesitantly.

……

……

The next day, Yingzheng's patrolling driver set off again to the counties and townships under the county government to publicly try the county and township officials who committed crimes.

Zulong is still that Zulong, state affairs always come first!
As for Qin Mo, he was ordered by Ying Zheng to stay in Wancheng and temporarily command the soldiers of Nanyang County.

On the one hand, the military generals and county officials of Nanyang County were almost taken over by one pot, and it took time to be re-selected or transferred elsewhere.

On the other hand, Ying Zheng was also afraid that Qin Mo, who was weak, would not be able to stand the bumpy road. If something happened, he would regret it.

Qin Mo readily accepted the order, and after sending Ying Zheng away, he signed a ministerial order, according to the rules of conquering cities during previous campaigns, temporarily putting Wancheng and the surrounding villages under military control.

Fortunately, the soldiers of Nanyang County were also his old subordinates, and everything was in order, so Qin Mo didn't need to worry too much.

So, after Qin Mo signed the order, he decisively went back to Houya to recuperate, and designed a left foot prosthesis for Gongsunye by the way.

"The lord should rest more, why bother for the minister?"

Gongsunye held the design drawing of the prosthetic limb drawn by Qin Mo, his cloudy eyes turned red.

Qin Mo stretched, lay down on the recliner, waved his hands and said, "From now on, we will be a family, don't be so hypocritical."

"Let's find a craftsman in the city to help you build it. It's best to supervise it yourself and try it out at any time, lest it doesn't work when it happens."

"The child stays, and Yu Ji and I will help you watch."

"Here!"

Gongsunye saluted, handed over his grandchildren to Concubine Yu, and left on crutches.

Qin Mo fell asleep, and Yu Ji peeled the peanuts just harvested this year, fed them to the two children, and stuffed a peanut into Qin Mo's mouth from time to time.

One of the two children is called Gongsun Cheng and the other is called Gongsun Li, and they are very attractive.

Yu Ji especially likes it. She slept in her arms last night and asked the two children to call her mother.

A girl from a common people's family, at Yu Ji's age, is indeed the age at which a child can be called a mother.

Concubine Yu's acting like this is also hinting at Qin Mo that it's time to add something!
As for whether Qin Mo can understand it, it is unknown.

"It seems that the gentleman doesn't understand..."

Yu Ji mumbled and stuffed a few peanuts into Qin Mo's mouth.

But Qin Mo was so salty, he didn't even open his eyes, he just chewed like a dream, and made an unpleasant nasal sound, warning her not to mess around.

Concubine Yu pursed her red lips, and was about to say something when a person walked in from outside the courtyard. Upon closer inspection, it was the eldest princess Yuan Man!
When Yingzheng went on a tour of the county and township, he didn't take the eldest daughter with him, but asked her to stay behind, under the guise of taking care of Qin Mo.

It is obvious that they are still matching the two!
Even though Concubine Yu was upset, she didn't dare to be negligent, she got up quickly and was about to greet her.

Yuan Man pressed Yu Yu's hand, then pointed to Qin Mo who was on the reclining chair, signaling that she should not be too polite, so as not to disturb Qin Mo's rest.

Concubine Yu bowed silently and went back to the house to make tea.

Yuan Man was honest and blunt, occupied Yu Ji's seat, peeled peanuts and fed them to the two children.

The two children each ate one, and seeing that it was Qin Mo's turn, they obediently reminded Yuan Man, and said in a milky voice, "Master, too."

"Look, Prime Minister Qin is asleep and won't eat... Ah!"

Yuan Man nodded with a smile, re-peeled the peanuts, and brought them to Qin Mo's lips symbolically, explaining to the two children that people cannot eat food at the same time after sleeping.

But, halfway through her words, Qin Mo suddenly opened his mouth and bit the peanut and her finger, causing her to cry out in fright.

Qin Mo's body reacted faster than his brain, and after biting it, he realized that the voice in his ear was not Yu Ji's, and he couldn't help being stunned when he opened his eyes.

The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere was inexplicably awkward!
