Master Emperor, your wife is too poisonous

Chapter 653 I Will Give Them A Big Gift
"This red root is more common in Tianqiong, but it is difficult to cultivate successfully in Beiming, and only the Immortal Medicine Valley can produce this kind of medicine."

Chi Han said: "In the past, we entrusted Tianqiong's merchants to help us transport the red roots, but recently the situation in Tianqiong is unstable, and many business routes have been closed. The one that has been delivering goods to us The businessman can’t be contacted either, and the latest batch of red hen root at home was purchased from Immortal Medicine Valley.”

Ye Lingxi nodded. The booklet of the Immortal Medicine Valley that Ye Shaocheng gave her yesterday did record the medicine of red root.

"You haven't used up the red root you bought from Immortal Medicine Valley, have you?" Ye Lingxi said, "Bring me the rest of the medicine."

Chi Han immediately greeted his servants to fetch the medicine.

Taking advantage of the time of waiting, Chi Han also took a closer look at the pieces of red roots. Except for the difference in color, he couldn't see any difference between the red roots and the ones he used before.

"Master Ye, do you suspect that the batch of red roots sold to us by the Immortal Medicine Valley is not of good quality, and is it shoddy?"

Chi Han frowned and said: "I also checked this medicine carefully when I bought it. Judging from the appearance when I bought it, it is indeed a top-grade red root."

"I'm not sure yet."

Ye Lingxi said, "We'll have to wait until we've checked the herbs to find out."

"However, if my guess is correct, it may not be as simple as shoddy."

"Brother." Ye Lingxi turned her head to look at Ye Shaocheng, "According to what Doctor Chi said, one of the things that Immortal Medicine Valley relies on is their ability to cultivate all kinds of elixir."

"Is the work of cultivating the elixir done by everyone in the Immortal Medicine Valley, or is it entrusted to a specific mountain?"

"Naturally, it is handed over to a specific mountain." Ye Shaocheng said, "Jiangyun Peak, like our mother's, is only responsible for refining various elixirs and does not interfere with other affairs."

"The other hills are responsible for planting and picking, processing and storage, etc. The division of labor is very clear."

"Where's Qingze Peak?" Ye Lingxi asked, "What are they mainly responsible for?"

"Responsible for the storage and delivery of finished medicinal materials, that is, the job of selling them." Ye Shaocheng said, "It is because the power of this sale is in the hands of the peak master of Qingze Peak, that's why he dared to come to pick up the medicines before. This is to threaten my mother."

Ye Lingxi nodded, and didn't ask any more questions, just in time, the servants brought all the remaining red hemp roots, so she stopped talking.

Because the red root sold in Immortal Medicine Valley is expensive, Chi Han didn't buy many, and there were only three pieces left, one of which had been cut in half, which was the one that was used as medicine before.

"Before Xiwu got wind and cold, other medicines she used also contained red root."

Chi Han said: "Actually, I bought a total of four yuan when I bought it, and I have already used up a whole one before. If there is really any problem with the red root, it stands to reason that it will be reflected before."

Ye Lingxi didn't respond, and only focused on carefully examining the half-cut red root.

First look at the appearance, then smell the smell, and finally cut a small piece with a knife and taste it in your mouth.

After a while, she spit out the medicine dregs in her mouth, rinsed her mouth with tea, and then spoke with certainty.

"This red root has been tampered with."

The faces of several people in the room couldn't help but change when they heard this.

"Normal red chrysanthemum root is made from the rhizome of red chrysanthemum after steaming and drying in the sun."

"The appearance of this red rhizome root looks fine, but I suspect that it was boiled with water added to it, and the medicinal properties of the water soaked into the red rhizome root."

"Normal red root should be sweet and chew like grains."

"And this red root." Ye Lingxi raised her finger and pointed to the half of red root she had just checked, "It tastes astringent and sour, chewing like mud."

Hearing this, Chi Han immediately picked up a knife and cut a small piece to taste. After tasting for a while, he nodded with a gloomy expression, "Master Ye is right, the taste of this red root is not right."

"It was also my carelessness. I thought that this is the medicine produced in the Immortal Medicine Valley, and the quality must be guaranteed, so I didn't go to check it carefully. I accepted the product after seeing that it was in good condition."

"Since there are problems with this batch of red root, why did Xiwu have such a big reaction this time after drinking the medicine made with red root?"

"It should be related to the water used to cook the red root." Ye Lingxi said, "The combination of the red root that has been boiled with the medicinal water and ordinary medicinal materials does not have much effect, but it should be related to the wind and cold medicine. A certain medicinal ingredient in the medicine collided, which made my sister-in-law become what she is now."

"What kind of medicine did they use? The scope is too large to be sure."

"But there is definitely something wrong with the red root. Take this to the Immortal Medicine Valley, and they will have to give you an explanation."

Ye Lingxi said: "The evidence is all here, so I'm not afraid that they won't recruit."

"Just now you specifically asked me about the division of labor among the peaks in the Immortal Medicine Valley, did you suspect that people from Qingze Peak had tampered with this medicine?" Ye Shaocheng vaguely guessed something, with a gloomy and ugly face.

"Yes." Ye Lingxi admitted generously.

"I'm new here, and I'm not familiar with Immortal Medicine Valley. Now there's something wrong with the medicine, and it's such a subtle problem."

"Don't say that laymen can't see the tricks, even if the insiders don't check carefully, they may not be able to detect the strangeness of this medicine. It seems that someone carefully designed it deliberately."

"Brother, just to be cautious, you should take this medicine and go to the Immortal Medicine Valley to ask them carefully and let them give you an explanation."

Ye Lingxi said: "If it's just their misoperation, then they have to apologize."

"If someone really deliberately sold this specially processed red root to Chi's family to target sister-in-law..."

Ye Lingxi hadn't finished speaking when Ye Shaocheng strode up to her, grabbed the red hemp roots on the table, wrapped them in a coarse cloth, and strode out the door.

"I'm going to Immortal Medicine Valley to ask them for an explanation!"

"Go, don't worry, sister-in-law has me here."

Ye Lingxi watched Ye Shaocheng leave, and then stood by Chi Xiwu's bed.

It wasn't until Chi Xiwu drank the medicine and the fever subsided completely that she and Chi Han left Chi Xiwu's bedroom together.

"Doctor Chi, the medicines you used are all fine, everything is as usual, but just to be cautious, you'd better check all the medicines that sister-in-law wants to use, and don't make any mistakes."

Chi Han nodded again and again, "This time it really taught me a lesson, I will be careful in the future."

"Because of your brother and Xiwu's marriage, our Chi family has turned against Immortal Medicine Valley, but I never thought that they would actually tamper with the medicinal materials. The means are too low."

"There's always a time to clean them up."

Ye Lingxi said: "Since they dare to do it, they must have the awareness to bear the consequences."

"In three days, the Immortal Medicine Valley will start accepting disciples, and I will give them a big gift that day."
