It’s too dangerous to seize the direct descendant, so I choose to be the leader of the Demon Cult

Chapter 34 This is worse for you than killing me.
A quarter of an hour later.

Zhu Li took a letter of recommendation and left Zhu Mansion in a daze.

I originally thought that becoming a government official for Zhao Ci would require a dangerous fight. After all, Zhu Lao Er always likes to embarrass himself, and everyone in the Zhu family who wants to be a government official needs to be considered repeatedly by a group of elders. The person will be released only after it is in the interests of the family.

Unexpectedly, it went so smoothly.

Is it in their interest to let go of me, a genius alchemist?
Should not be!

Zhu Li didn't understand, but was very happy.

Go and fend for yourself!

Zhufu.

Zhu Gong suppressed the smile on his face and looked at Zhao Yong: "Your Highness, if I release Zhu Li to Zhao Ci this time, I am afraid that he will be close to the water..."

After all, he is his sister's son and the one whom the Zhu family supports. Naturally, he has heard about Zhao Yong going to Kan Mansion to propose marriage.

"It's okay!"

Although Zhao Yong's face was a little ugly, he was not angry at all: "It's hard to talk about things like marriage, let alone the marriage granted by the father. It's really a mediocre thing to delay business because of it. What my uncle did this time right!"

Zhu Gong nodded slightly, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

To be honest, Zhao Yong's temperament is slightly inferior to that of the prince back then, and he would occasionally be swayed by his emotions.

After all, he is a young man, and it is normal for him to be impetuous.

But when it comes to business matters, Zhao Yong never acts on his own initiative. As long as he is well cultivated, he will surely become the right-hand man of the prince in time, lest he be stolen by the fourth prince at the end.

Speaking of this, His Majesty seems to be aging faster and faster.

"father!"

Zhu Yan suddenly frowned and said: "Do you think Zhao Ci would like Zhu Li's flames? That girl once did something to me. Her flames were really scorching. Although she basically said goodbye to the road of alchemy, if Practicing the art of killing may not be without a future."

Zhu Gong smiled and said nothing, just looked at Zhao Yong.

Zhao Yong smiled lightly: "Don't worry! When she becomes a government official, she won't be able to receive monthly money, and all her training resources will have to be exchanged for merit. With Concubine Jing's background, even if she barely makes a profit in the elixir industry within three years, it will be a huge gain. If it lags behind the ordinary Danfang, it is very likely that the performance of the Ten Princes' Palace will still be negative in the end.

Although they can use the elixirs from Xiang's Danfang, what good elixirs can they make from those stinky fish and rotten shrimps?
If her cultivation resources can't keep up, no matter how weird her flame is, what use will it be?

Instead, the golden cultivation period of three years was wasted. "

Zhu Yan nodded: "That's right!"

Zhao Yong stood up and saluted Zhu Gong: "Uncle! If the details are finalized, then I will go back first. In this Gongdan Conference, I must..."

At this moment, a woman ran over in a panic.

It was Zhu Mei who was at the auction house last night: "The boss is not good!"

Zhu Gong said calmly: "Say!"

Zhu Mei looked a little solemn: "Our informant in the Li family said that there was something strange in the Xiang family's alchemy workshop. Last night, Li Fugui and the worshiper named Zhang drank all night and were in a very happy mood. There was also news from the palace that Zhao Ci I have been traveling frequently with His Majesty recently, and His Majesty seems to have high hopes for Xiang’s elixir..."

"This……"

All of a sudden, several people were silent.

If it were just Concubine Jing, this would be fine.

But if the emperor takes action, things will not be simple.

If I remember correctly, the emperor should have raised a few alchemists with strange methods. If they had clever ideas to help, there might be some variables.

As for the source of information.

That's absolutely reliable.

The spy of the Li family has a high status in the Li family, but the youngest son has a strange disease and is being secretly treated by the Zhu family doctor.

The news in the palace came from an eunuch, who was the opposite of the palace maid who sorted the books in the imperial study. Many of the news about the palace in the Zhu family came from this eunuch, and the credibility was quite high.

But how to deal with this?

Zhu Gong frowned and looked at the list in his hand.

Zhao Yong failed to take down the Hundred Refining Furnace last night, which aroused Zhu's sense of crisis, so after thinking about it all night, he assigned several senior alchemists to Zhao Yong, and also prepared a batch of high-grade alchemy furnaces and Qi Dan refiners. Improved prescriptions were also passed on.

Although it wasn't much, it still hurt a bit.

But I never thought that Zhao Ci actually had this skill!
The emperor is partial!
This time, both attitude and actions are extremely bad signals.

On the side of the Four Princes' Party, a prince also opened a mansion ambitiously, but the main battlefield was not on Dan Yao's side.

However, the emperor tried his best to support Zhao Ci and Concubine Jing. Whether it was to reduce the pressure on the fourth prince or he really intended to support Zhao Ci, it was not a good sign.

This suppression is too obvious!

So, should you continue to increase your investment?
"uncle……"

Zhao Yong was also a little numb. Zhu Shi increased the pressure. He was under great pressure. If he didn't increase the pressure, he might have a large number of orders taken away by Zhao Ci.

It’s uncomfortable for everyone!

Zhu Gong thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, don't worry, just go back and rest first. Later, I will gather the elders to try to free up three hundred refining furnaces, together with the alchemists and new alchemy technology. Here you go! Although there is some movement over there, it shouldn’t be able to steal many orders from us.”

Zhao Yong looked suffocated: "Did some giant crossbows hit flies? No matter how strong Concubine Jing's small pill shop is, how strong can it be?"

"You can't say that!" Zhu Gong said in a deep voice: "The key now is to get the order. As long as the order is in hand, I have a hundred ways to help His Highness tide over the difficulties. But if you can't get the order, it will be difficult to remedy the situation. !”

Zhao Yong struggled for a moment and could only nod: "Thank you very much, uncle!"

He thanked her repeatedly, but the expression on his face was extremely complicated. He didn't know whether to cry, laugh or cry.

As an uncle, he agreed a little too readily, and even felt like he was rushing to give it away. You must know that these things have always been a secret to the Zhu family.

In here...

He is under great pressure now, but he has no objection.

When he gets these things, his father should be able to take another look at him, right?

He sighed, feeling extremely complicated.

But on second thought.

It’s true that I’m under a lot of pressure.

But on Zhao Ci's side, there was nothing left to do. They had to suppress him to death at the Gongdan Conference to avoid jumping up and down.

The right to open a mansion is a unique blessing and important responsibility for the children of the Dayu royal family.

This man actually used it to please Kan Luotang.

What an asshole!

To die!
……

Three poles in the sun.

Xiang's Danfang.

The door to the alchemy room finally opened.

Zhao Ci walked out of the alchemy room in high spirits and stretched comfortably.

Last night, he persisted in the extremely terrifying mental internal friction for two hours. It was not until the heart palpitations became more and more frequent and severe that he withdrew Yu Xinyan.

The moment he withdrew, he could no longer bear the excessive emotional consumption and fell asleep.

After waking up, all negative emotions dissipated and my soul became extremely light.

He felt that his five senses had become much clearer. In the past, the trees were just green lumps. Without careful observation, it was difficult to feel the details.

But this time, he just glanced casually, but he could feel the direction of each leaf's shaking.

It is said that when masters fight, life or death can often be decided in an instant.

This kind of almost subtle perception is really powerful.

It seems that Gu Xiangzhu is a good mine and needs to be dug carefully.

Danfang had just been built, and there was no one in the backyard except for the guards Gu Xiangzhu invited from the Xiang family.

He went directly to the front hall, ready to ask if the mushrooms he ordered to purchase had arrived.

But I never thought that a familiar figure was sitting in the front hall.

"Feng Kucha?"

Zhao Ci was a little surprised.

Feng Kucha was leaning on the back of the chair and taking a nap. When he heard his voice, he straightened up and asked eagerly: "Zhao Ci, I just went to your house to find you. Your maid told me that you were in Dan." Fang, is this Danfang really yours now?"

"Yes!"

"I heard someone said that you bought seven hundred-refining furnaces at the auction last night?"

"Yup!"

"hiss……"

Everyone in Feng Kucha was numb: "I thought you were joking before opening the mansion, but now are you serious?"

"Let's be serious, what else?"

"This is worse for you than killing me!"

"..."

Zhao Ci saw the grief and anger of being betrayed on Feng Kucha's face.

He seemed to have seen this expression before.

It seemed like he had seen it on his good brother's face when he replaced his Cadillac.

Isn't this a kind of betrayal?

Feng Kucha paced back and forth in the front hall with his hands behind his back and a frown on his face. Finally, he gritted his teeth, pulled out a booklet from his arms, and stuffed it into Zhao Ci's hand: "I stole this from home, you should use it more discreetly." , don’t sell me out! If you want to be rich and noble, don’t forget each other.”

After saying that, he turned his back and prepared to leave.

Zhao Ci took a look and saw that the book looked a little shabby. There were six words written on the cover: Feng Ji's Alchemy Notes.
