Hidden golden branches

"Why would a normal person, who didn't drink much, and who is the heir apparent, inexplicably attack the daughter of the current official, don't you think it's strange?"

strange!

But in comparison, Ji Yuxian who said this was even more strange.

What did he do?

However, unknown to others, Xiao Xuan in the palace suddenly frowned.

While the ministers were surprised, they couldn't help but think carefully about Ji Yuxian's words.

However, those who were immersed in their own thoughts never noticed that Gu Fei's expression suddenly changed drastically after hearing Ji Yuxian's question.

His expression was even uglier than when he heard the punishment given to him by the emperor just now.

Prime Minister Meng Heting was standing on the side, and he caught Gu Fei's expression in his eyes. For a moment, his face paused slightly.

"As the Crown Prince of Cheng'en, you should cherish your own feathers. I think that Mr. Gu is no exception, especially since Miss Cui is the legitimate daughter of the current military commander. Even if I can't figure it out at the moment, I shouldn't treat Miss Cui. Take action unless..."

When Ji Yuxian said this, she suddenly paused. This pause was just in time, and her words successfully brought everyone in.

"Unless he was unconscious at the time!" Xue Ruhai, the Minister of Criminal Affairs who had never spoken before, hit the point directly when he spoke.

And the way he looked at Ji Yuxian finally changed. It was no longer a scrutinizing look, but instead had a hint of appreciation.

In fact, this is just a simple bullying matter. If ordinary people encountered it, they would definitely treat it as that kind of thing.

But Ji Yuxian actually thought of this level.

No wonder the emperor sent him to Dali Temple no matter what.

He didn't mention it just now, and he didn't even think about it. Of course, Ji Hengran and Cheng Ke were not familiar with each other, which was also one of the reasons. But if you think about it carefully, there is something wrong.

No matter how stupid you are, you still know what will happen if you touch the daughter of the current official, right?

Gu Fei still knowingly committed the crime, is he crazy?

Ji Yuxian only nodded slightly to Xue Ruhai and said, "What Mr. I don’t know the good or bad reasons behind this matter.”

"I'm just doing things based on my own whim."

As soon as these words came out, the ministers all fell into deep thought. They had to admit that what Ji Yuxian said was very reasonable.

Especially those who know Cheng Ke feel that she is right.

Xue Ruhai felt this way at this time.

He paused for a moment and couldn't help but glance at Gu Fei a few more times. However, now Gu Fei's face was filled with lifeless gray, as if he had completely lost hope.

Xue Ruhai frowned, what is the reason for this? Why is Gu Fei so afraid?

"Master Su." Ji Yuxian suddenly called out a person's name.

Su Yannian stood nearby, also thinking about this matter. Gu Fei's symptoms gave him a very familiar feeling, but he couldn't tell where exactly it was familiar.

Suddenly his name was called by Ji Yuxian. He was still a little stunned, but he also reacted. He took a step forward and said, "Master Ji." Su Yannian was the historian of the Wei Dynasty and was quite famous in the court.

"Dare I ask Mr. Su, what happened in the 21st year of the Wei Dynasty?" Ji Yuxian asked such a question with a smile. This question was about something that happened more than 20 years ago. Wang Yannian heard that Yan was stunned for a moment, but then, a light suddenly flashed through his mind.

Su Yannian suddenly raised his head and looked at Ji Yuxian in disbelief.

He is so young and still knows such secrets?

Ji Yuxian nodded slightly when he saw his expression.

"What happened?" When things evolved to this point, even the cabinet ministers couldn't sit still and started asking hurriedly.

Su Yannian's expression changed slightly, and after a long while, he spoke out: "...In the 21st year of the Wei Dynasty, a poison was introduced into the capital. Inhaling this substance can cause people to hallucinate, make people feel excited, and have a sense of ecstasy. It feels like an immortal, but after being smoked, this substance will corrode people’s energy and spirit, and can also lead to addiction..."

"That year, due to the spread of this thing, a large number of people in the capital were infected with it and looked crazy. People who were normal in normal times actually burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil. For a time, the entire dynasty was in turmoil. Later, Gaozu found out This substance is strictly prohibited and a large number of officials and addicted people will be punished..."

Blood flows into a river.

Su Yannian didn't say the remaining four words, but everyone here was full of human beings, so there was no need for him to say them.

Just because of this thing, the entire Wei Dynasty was almost brought down, so Emperor Gaozu took such a heavy hand. Could it be...

"This thing is a piece of a plant that is ground into powder. It is also called -" Su Yannian paused before saying in a deep voice: "Poppy powder!"

That's right!

Ji Yuxian's eyes flashed with haze. When she saw Gu Fei for the first time yesterday, she felt that something was wrong with Gu Fei. He was so close. He was only sure after diagnosing Gu Fei's pulse in person.

Scholars in ancient times paid great attention to being knowledgeable. Although Ji Yuxian was a civil servant, he did not fall behind on the six arts that a gentleman must learn. He usually dabbled in Yili and Chinese medicine, but some people were perfunctory and some were specialized in it. Ji Yuxian's mother died early , I have been very strong since I was a child. Whenever I have any physical discomfort, as long as it is not a serious illness, I can get through it by myself. After studying, I have also worked hard on medical science, especially after going to the military camp. If I have a headache or fever, I can prescribe it by myself. Zi asked his entourage to just take the medicine and there was no need to bother the military doctors to treat him. In this way, I gained a lot of experience in using medicine.

This thing is called poppy powder, and it is a disgusting thing. Unexpectedly, this thing has started to spread again in Beijing. How can Ji Yuxian not be alarmed?

This was also the reason why he had to tie up Gu Fei and throw him into the meeting hall last night!

Many older officials in the court still remember the storm caused by poppy powder more than 20 years ago.

However, this thing appeared again...

Everyone knows that there is no cure for this poppy powder. Once it is contaminated, the whole person will be ruined. Even the world-famous Doctor Zhou was helpless when he was around.

I never expected that poppy powder would appear in the court again!

How is this not shocking! ?

"Can this... be sure it's poppy powder?" After a brief fuss, someone stood up and questioned.

After all, Emperor Gaozu used iron and blood methods to ban poppy powder. How could it appear in the capital again?

Weird things happen every year. It's really weird to just fly like this and do this.

Xiao Zi: How could it not be weird if you eat poppies that cause hallucinations?
