The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

Chapter 523: She went crazy before taking the magic pill, so does she need to take the magic pill to go crazy?

These days, life is difficult for the dignitaries in the capital. Some time ago, they took the magic pill and were taken to the prison of Tingwei Mansion as "guests", where they suffered a lot. Later, when they learned that there were poisonous insects in the magic pill, they were so frightened that they felt restless day and night, and quickly asked a doctor to drive away the poisonous insects. The doctors in the capital didn't know how to get rid of the poison, but fortunately the imperial doctors in the palace knew how to get rid of the poison, otherwise their lives would have been hard to save.

The process of getting rid of the voodoo was very difficult, involving medicine, acupuncture, and bloodletting. After the voodoo was expelled from the body, they all lost weight.

At first, those who took the magic pill did not believe that there were poisonous insects in the magic pill, and felt that the court was trying to scare them. However, when they saw the Gu crawling out of their bodies, they were so frightened that they almost died on the spot. Afterwards, they felt disgusted, scared, and lucky at the same time.

Now, people in the entire capital change their expressions when mentioning the magic pill. This makes them no longer dare to take pills casually in the future, nor do they dare to believe in any magical pills easily.

Everyone in the capital who had taken the magic pill had basically eliminated the poisonous insects from their bodies, except for one person. This person is Queen Xie.

Empress Xie has always concealed the fact that she took the magic pill. The emperor asked her before, but she insisted that she didn't. She was naturally frightened when she learned that there were really poisonous insects in the magic elixir, but it was difficult for her to find a doctor to drive away the poisonous insects for her.

Expelling the poisonous insects cannot be done in a day or two, and the process of expelling them will be very painful for the patient. Even if Empress Xie wanted to secretly ask the imperial doctor to help her exorcise the poison, she couldn't do it. After all, she couldn't hide it from the palace people. Furthermore, she didn't really want to get rid of the poisonous insects in her body.

Whenever she saw herself getting younger and younger in the mirror, Queen Xie couldn't bear to get rid of the poison in her body. What she is worried about now is not that there are poisonous insects in her body, but that she can no longer take the magic pill.

Queen Xie asked Xie Shi to buy a few bottles of magic pills for her before, and the person who sold the magic pills specially gave two bottles as a gift. She used to take one pill a day, but since the emperor issued a decree strictly prohibiting magic pills, she changed to taking one pill every three days. After that, I changed to taking one pill every five days. A few days ago, I changed it to taking one pill every seven days.

Taking one pill every seven days is not as effective as taking it every day. However, in order to save food, she could only do this.

Queen Xie asked Xie Shi to secretly inquire about the person who made the magic pill. Unexpectedly, the person who made the magic pill had already been beheaded. She asked Xie Shi to inquire about the prescription of the magic pill, but found out that the prescription for the magic pill had been destroyed long ago. No one made the magic pill, and there was no prescription for the magic pill. She could only ask Xie Shi to find out if there were any other places selling the magic pill.

She learned that foreign countries such as the Western Regions and Annan sold magical elixirs, so she asked Xie Shi to help her buy them secretly. Unexpectedly, these foreign countries also listed magical elixirs as banned drugs and destroyed them all. In this world, she is the only one who still has the magic pill.

Nowadays, there is not much magic pill left in her hand. No matter how frugally she eats, it won't take long for her to finish eating. When she thought that after eating the magic pill, she would turn into a yellow-faced woman, she couldn't help but be filled with panic.

She didn't want to look as sickly as before, let alone have wrinkles on her face.

Jiang Chuan saw that Queen Xie was always frowning recently, with a distressed and irritable expression, and asked with concern: "Empress, what's wrong with you recently? Are you in a bad mood?"

"How many days can I take the magic pill?"

"If you take one pill every ten days, you can still take it for a month or two." Jiang Chuan now knew what Queen Xie was worried about. She hesitated for a while and then said cautiously, "Mother, there are worms in this magical elixir. For the sake of your body, you'd better not eat it." She heard that the worms forced out of those people's bodies, Very scary and very disgusting.

Queen Xie glared at Jiang Chuan, who trembled in fright and lowered his head quickly, not daring to persuade him any more.

"I've been taking the magic elixir for so long, isn't it good? I'm not sick or crazy." Not only is she not sick, her health is better than before. Since taking the magic pill, her old headache has never happened again.

"Mother, there is a bug..." If she knew there was a bug in her body, she would be frightened day and night, and she would be so scared that she couldn't sleep. But the Queen didn't care. In order to stay young, the Queen was really... terrible.

"The person who made the divine elixir was killed by the emperor, and the formula of the divine elixir was also destroyed. In other words, the mother voodoo that controlled the poisonous insects in the divine elixir was also dead. Then the poisonous insects in my body will not be controlled. There will be What's there to be afraid of? "A Gu insect without the control of a mother Gu is no different from a dead insect. It's inside her and won't affect her body. On the contrary, without the control of the mother voodoo, the voodoo worms in her body can continue to maintain her youth.

Jiang Chuan heard what Queen Xie said and felt that it made sense. However, if it were her, she would still be afraid.

"What I'm worried about right now is that I can no longer take the magic pill." Taking one pill every seven days made her feel very flustered. If you change it to taking one pill every ten days, I'm afraid it will be the same as not eating at all. "Where can I find the magic pill now?"

"Empress, the magic pill was discovered by His Royal Highness the King of Han. I heard that the magic pill was made in Lingnan. His Highness the King of Han may know the formula of the magic pill." Since taking the magic pill, the Queen has been in a good mood and is no longer in a good mood. Get angry at every turn. If the empress doesn't have the magic pill to eat, I'm afraid her temper will be even worse than before. Since the empress is not afraid of the poisonous insects in her body, let her continue to take the magic pill.

Hearing what Jiang Chuan said, Queen Xie's eyes lit up, "You are right, the King of Han must have the formula for the magic elixir."

"It's not that the medicinal materials in the magic pill are all from Lingnan. Madam, you can ask the Duke to send someone to find the prescription and make it directly in Lingnan."

"I will write a letter now."

Queen Xie stood up and walked towards the study. Jiang Chuan quickly followed and helped her sharpen the ink.

After writing the letter, Queen Xie sent someone to deliver it to the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion.

It didn't take long for the emperor to know that Queen Xie had written a letter asking Xie Shi to send people to Lingnan to find the formula for the magic pill.

Sun Kui was horrified: How dare the Queen want to take the magic pill! Isn't she afraid of the poison in the magic pill? !
The emperor clearly issued a decree to strictly prohibit the magic pill, but the empress was so bold that she went everywhere to collect the magic pill. Now she even sent the Duke of Zhen Guo to Lingnan to find the formula for the magic pill. Is she crazy?
Wait, I heard that if you take too much magic pill, you will go crazy. The Queen seems to have taken a lot of magic pills, she must have gone crazy.

"Don't worry about her, let Xie Shi look for her."

Sun Kui was shocked: The emperor didn't stop the queen? !
"Your Majesty, don't you worry that the Queen will..." Sun Kui did not dare to say that the mother of a country would go crazy.

The emperor glanced at Sun Kui who was hesitant to speak, raised his eyebrows slightly and said: "You mean she will go crazy?"

"Didn't you say that if you take too much magic pill, you will go crazy?"

The emperor sneered: "She went crazy before taking the magic pill. Does she need to take the magic pill to go crazy?"

Sun Kui: "..." What the emperor said makes sense. Indeed, the queen went crazy before taking the magic pill. Among the empresses in this palace, who can be crazier than the empress?

"Your Majesty, the Queen is the mother of a country after all. If it is true... it will damage your reputation and the reputation of the royal family." Not long after the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, a mad queen appeared. The emperor would be criticized, said Maybe this incident will leave a bad reputation in the history books.

"Do I still have a reputation? Does the royal family still have a reputation?" The emperor never cared about reputation.

Sun Kui: "..." Your Majesty, could you please stop speaking so openly?

"Her body won't last a few years, so just let her have it."

Listening to the emperor's ruthless words, Sun Kui sighed in his heart: The emperor really has no affection for the empress.

"Your Majesty, if Duke Zhenguo can't find the formula, will the Queen be unfavorable to His Highness the King of Han?"

The emperor said unclearly: "Who knows."

"Your Majesty, aren't you trying to trick His Highness the King of Han again?" The word "trick" is used very cleverly.

When the emperor heard this, he glared at Sun Kui fiercely, "Am I such a person?"

Sun Kui said in his heart: You are it.

"Get out and don't disturb me from reviewing the memorial."

Sun Kui: He guessed it right, and the emperor is trying to trick His Highness the King of Han again.

At this time, Zhao Yao, who was far away in Marsh Mansion, sneezed suddenly and loudly.

The dark guard asked with concern: "Your Highness, are you okay?"

Zhao Yao rubbed his itchy nose and said, "It's okay. Who should be talking about me? Keep talking."

"The Dragon Guard has found evidence that Duke Zhenguo, Duke Anyang and Marquis Xuanping were forging weapons and raising private soldiers in Annan."

"They did not transport weapons and private soldiers back to the Zhou Dynasty, and it is difficult for my father to convict them of death, so they cannot cause too much trouble." Zhao Yao was not too concerned about this matter, "Where is the King of Han?"

"The King of Han bought many war horses from the Western Regions and raised them on the Xiongnu grasslands." The secret guard continued to report, "Modun Chanyu has been poisoned, and it is a banned drug in the Western Regions."

"When do they plan to let Modun Shanyu die?" Zhao Yao was not surprised at all about Modun Shanyu being poisoned.

"Wait until King Dai follows their plan."

Hearing this, Zhao Yao raised the corners of his lips and smiled playfully: "Did they succeed in lobbying the acting king?"

"Successful, King Dai agreed to cooperate with King Han."

"Is the honey trap so useful?"

"Your Highness, that woman is pregnant, and the acting king plans to make her his concubine."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, the hero really has a hard time at the beauty gate." Zhao Yao supported his face with his right hand, his face full of joking, "It will be lively when the king returns to the capital."

"The third princess persuaded Maodun Shanyu to temporarily give up going south to invade the Zhou Dynasty. Soon, the acting king will set off to return to the capital."

"Just in time for Annan's incident to happen." Zhao Yao tapped his fingers on the desk with a thoughtful expression, "How will my father treat the king?"

Dark Guard A did not answer Zhao Yao's question.

"By the way, where are the Southern Wei people?"

"Previously, the emperor issued an order to arrest the people of the Southern Wei Dynasty, which caused serious losses to the people of the Southern Wei Dynasty. Now the people of the Southern Wei Dynasty in the Great Zhou Dynasty are not popular." Secret Guard A said, "Most of the people of the Southern Wei Dynasty who were killed by the emperor's order are not the king of Wei. His Highness’s people.”

"So, when my father ordered to get rid of the Southern Wei people this time, he actually helped Bage."

"Yes."

Zhao Yao asked again: "Where are the Southern Wei people on the Xiongnu side?"

"On the surface, King Han was happy that he had taken refuge with the Third Princess and the others." Little did he know that everything was under the control of King Wei. King Han and the three princesses plotted against King Dai, but they were played by King Wei from beginning to end. "Now, most of the forces in the Xiongnu royal court have taken refuge with the third princess."
