Mengfei Qiqi

Chapter 868 Those Old Events 3
The queen mother still sat there with an arrogant expression on her face, her beautiful Danfeng eyes slantingly looked at Ye Qiqi.

"Empress Dowager, have you heard of Cardamom Jade Man Pill?" Ye Qiqi thought for a while and decided to start with this pill.

"Cardamom Jade Man Pill?" The queen mother was obviously taken aback for a moment, then she frowned and thought carefully, "I heard that it was a very popular pill more than ten years ago. It is said that after women take it, they can Stay young and beautiful forever."

"very popular?"

"At that time, almost all the women in the palace were taking the Jade Man Pill." The Empress Dowager said to Ye Qiqi with a disdainful expression, "I just don't know why, but the pill gradually disappeared from the rivers and lakes."

"You mean..." Ye Qiqi asked her hesitantly, "My mother also took that pill?"

"Your mother..." The queen mother thought about it carefully, then nodded and said: "I should have taken it before, which girl would not want to stay young forever, and after taking that pill, your mother's skin and complexion What, it does look a lot better."

"This……"

Ye Qiqi suddenly didn't know what to say, "But as far as I know, it seems that cardamom jade pills are rare in the world."

"Naturally." The Empress Dowager nodded and said, "The price of the Jade Man Pills is very high, where ordinary women can afford it, and only those concubines in the palace are willing to buy it."

"Is that so??" Ye Qiqi frowned, always feeling that something was wrong.

It seems unreasonable to say that the pills are so expensive that the women outside the palace cannot afford them.

Those princes and nobles, which one is not rich and powerful, if their female relatives want to buy this pill, they must be able to afford it, but right now, it seems that this nutmeg jade pill is only circulated in the palace .

Seeing that Ye Qiqi hadn't spoken for a while, the queen mother asked, "Why are you asking this?? You want it too?"

"I..." Ye Qiqi hesitated for a moment, and just when she was about to say something else, the Queen Mother frowned and said to her, "Don't take that kind of pill indiscriminately. I don't believe in maintaining youth or anything like that."

"Then have you...have you eaten it?" Ye Qiqi asked with her head tilted.

"No." The Queen Mother replied very simply and neatly: "At that time, the Supreme Emperor, that is, your grandfather, once told me very seriously not to believe those strange pills that were circulated in the Jianghu. Who knows what the ingredients are inside."

"My grandfather??" Ye Qiqi looked at her suspiciously.

"Hmm." The queen mother thought for a while and then continued: "At that time your grandfather was disgusted with this pill, so he told me not to take it. Since I promised him, I must do it. It's just that I advised your mother to take it. When you don't want to take it, your mother didn't listen at all. She only said that after taking the pill, she didn't feel any discomfort. On the contrary, she felt refreshed. Don't persuade her any more."

"Then when did this pill disappear from the rivers and lakes?"

"This..." The Queen Mother frowned and thought carefully for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I don't really remember that, after all, I don't take that pill, so I naturally pay less attention to it."
